iPod index?
Authored by: jonasyorg on Apr 30, '05 03:00:32PM

Has anyone found a way to force spotlight to show my music files on my ipod(shuffle in this case)? When I first plug it in it shows them fine for a couple of seconds, but then after it's done indexing it's pretty clear that apple explicitly is removing them! I've been waiting for a long time for spotlight as a way to get my files back off my ipod(20gb) so I can get them onto the shuffle easily, but it looks like apple is still block this.

anyone successfully able to show your files on your shuffle through tricking spotlight somehow?
