More on music disappearing on iPod mini

“Joe Paolino’s case is typical of the reports we’ve received so far “After charging my mini overnight, I found that the next morning all of my songs and playlists were missing.

I had the same problem just today. However resetting my mini numerous times didn’t help. I eventually restored the mini via the update software and everything now seems to be fine.
