4G, HP + iPod, 20GB, I believe click wheel is dead.
Takes updates, I can move files back and forht onto hard drive, shows up in ITunes, but after restoring iPod, the first question it asks is to select language.
Because of my dead click wheel, I am stuck.

Q:  Is there a way to configure my iPod via a computer and avoid using click wheel for default settings (I’m also thinking .ini file)?  Does a remote accessory exist that will replace click-wheel functionality?

Any help greatly appreciated!

regarding the album art:
you say you downloaded the media. I do this as well. If the media (songs) are not labeled as an album (that is, the album field for that song in iTunes is blank), then you cannot modify artwork.
This may be the problem that wasn’t adressed.
Simply type anything (i do mean anything) for that album field and you will be able to modify it.

Ahmed -

Completely untrue in our experience… we have plenty of songs with album art that have no album tag. Such songs that don’t have album art yet still gladly accept it, as well.

Jerrod -
Thanks for the suggestions, I’ll take a look at the permissions as well as the file types.

Admedh -
Thanks for the thought, I had actually read about the album name thing somewhere else but it doesn’t matter, album art is the last step in getting my iTunes library up to date as far as complete information (track/album/artist) so that’s not an issue for me.

Hi Jerrod-

I am curious, does Apple publish stats or do any trade papers estimate the # of Video iPods in use worldwide? I also want to know
if there are stats on the “most subscribed”
video podcasts.

No rush, btw.

Matt

p.s. iLounge is my go-to link for iPod info.
