I recently tried to hook up my Ipod to my new computer running Vista, and just figured that is wasn't working because of a compatibility issue. I found the update and installed it, and still, nothing. Itunes would not recognize my Ipod, Windows would not safely remove my hardware, and my computer would not shut off or restart without me manually pressing the button.
On a whim, I disconnected an external hard drive connected to my computer and plugged in the Ipod. It worked instantly!
I did some investigating and noticed that, when my external hard drive is plugged into the USB port, all of my media drives also disappear (SD, MS, SmartMedia, etc). Is there some sort of limit to the amount of drives a computer could handle? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!
