iPod mounting issue

[Krystallynn341]

I figured it out! If anyone wants to know... if you're mounting an iPod touch 2g on Ubuntu 10.10 you have to type the command:
sudo mkdir/ media/ ipod
then go into your fstab by typing the command
sudo gedit /etc/fstab
then add
/dev/sda1 /media/iPod vfat nosuid,noauto,nodev,rw,umask=077,gid=1000,uid=1000 ,user,defaults,noatime,iocharset=utf8 0 0
to the bottom
Then type in all these commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppamcenery/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgradeafterwards, reboot computer and it should work.
you have to use GTKpod with the ipod touch though

i don't think that's possible .. you r mounting your win partition in the ipod folder. if you open the /media/ipod what files do you see?

ls /media/ipod

do you have gvfs-backends installed?

sudo apt-get install gvfs-backends
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

reboot and retry.

Sorry if this is a question that I missed the answer to above ... is your iPod formatted for Mac or Windows? Don't know if that'll help much but you said that it recognized it at one point and then it wouldn't let you access it ... I had that trouble and it wasn't until I formatted it in ******* that it worked ... it wasn't a touch though so it might be different ...
