iPod Update 2.0.1 Mini-me prompted me to download the latest iPod software update (v 2.0.1) tonight. It's the first time I've received an update, so I thought it would be easy. I was disappointed to find that it gives me two choices: Update and Restore - where Restore erases everything. The problem? Restore is the only choice. I'm guessing that I have to erase everything to update the software?! Sounds like a load of crap to me, but since I have all the songs stored in iTunes, I guess it's not that big of a deal. Is this the usual procedure for iPod software updates? Posted in Mac OS X at Jun 22 2003, 08:30:29 PM MDT 2 Comments

You should just be able to use the update choice. This will update your iPod software to most recent version. Make sure you read the release notes/instructions completely so you understand when you should plug and unplug the iPod. I found the process pretty straight forward on my OS X box.

Damn - I tried resetting my iPod b/c it wasn't showing up as mounted on my desktop and now it won't start. According to this discussion, I have to wait 24 hours for it to work again. What kindof horshit is that?! ;-)
