I am running Amarok 2.3.2 under Kubuntu 10.10 (I have failed to figure out how to update it to 2.4, that is another story). When I plug in my iPod I get there is no reaction. I have read in another forum that through the menu Settings>>configure Amarok>>devices, that I can access my Pod. In the configure Amarok menu I only get the following choices:
General
Collection
Internet Services
Playback
Notifications
Database

None of which help me.

Any ideas?

To upgrade, see http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Download:Kubuntu

If KDE detects your iPod, Amarok should too, automatically. It will show up below your Local Collection. If it shows 0 tracks, wait a bit for Amarok to catalog the contents.

Thanks for the update info, I now have Amrok 2.4. But still my pod is not recognised. I can see it in the file manager, I can look inside it (no songs as I have factory reset it) but I cannot access it from Amrok.

I now have another problem, I can no longer eject the pod from my computer. On my screen there is the message that it is now safe th eject the pod. On the pod it says do not disconnect.

I am stuck

Strange! And yet we have another report of the same thing happening. Can you please run Amarok from the console,

Code: Select all

amarok --debug --nofork

and use the output in the console to file about this? From your Amarok menu, Help > Report Bug. You'll have to create an account if you haven't reported a KDE bug before.

Thanks for helping us improve Amarok, and sorry for your difficulties.
