What would an iPod say to headphones?

Just upgraded my 3gs to iOS5 and Music…: Apple Support Communities
Just upgraded my 3gs to iOS5 and Music…: Apple Support Communities. Interesting solution that the user found. I wonder if this was a cable issue. I once had an iPod that refused to sync and it turned out the cable was bent. A new cable fixed the issue.
ok..update..
Looks like by unchecking itunes sync music and then resyncing the whole library again it worked. It took a lot longer to sync this time then the initial sync during the install of iOS5. So I’m guessing the files weren’t really on the phone or were in the process of being transferred since i have 969 songs..
Anyway, seems to be working now…
Is your old 3 generation iPod dead from battery use?
Then you will need to go here to fix it. A pretty reasonable price to rescue the music and files from the device. My friend decided to buy this and I am going to see if that will help it sync to iTunes 10.5. I will keep you updated.

iTweaX – Change settings on your Lion computer
I read other reviews of this and so I thought I should try it. It has a boring UI and I think it is confusing as well. I used to use these kind of shortcut programs, but now it seems safer to just directly use the terminal commands. I guess the older you get, the less you trust third parties to do the right things.

iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore. Nicely done! I used this to help a friend restore the iPad to new condition.

Vulnerability in iPhone data encryption – The H Security: News and Features. Surprising that they wouldn’t test it with other operating system especially the most popular ones. Apples Quality Control and testing doesn’t seem to be what it once was.
What makes a person great?
To me, it is that their life means more than just surviving. They somehow make the world a better place.
So using this scale, I have to place Bill Gates as greater than Steve Jobs. Being focused on the needs of the poor and disenfranchised is a noble goal, and one that I find very rewarding. The best times in my life have been when I have been able to give or help others.
This is not to say that what Mr. Jobs did wasn’t worthwhile. iPads are used in many life saving applications, and I have featured many of those stories on this website. However, given the focus of Mr. Gates vs the focus of Mr. Jobs as reported publicly, it seems clear who is doing the most for the poor.
I could be wrong, and Mr. Jobs is doing great things for the poor. I don’t deny that may be happening, but I have not read anything about that. It may be that the future of Apple might be to help medical devices become even cheaper and more functional. I hope that is the case. I appreciate the things that Apple has done to move technology forward, even if people were inconvenienced or it was a rude awakening. While I do not apologize for them, I understand why they acted as they did.
Many things improve the quality of our live. Open source software is something I use everyday. I suppose Mr. Stallman I should thank for that. It is really impossible to give credit to all the creative and hardworking individuals who make the world better. I think the most we can do is have gratitude for living in a time, in which we can witness the growth of peaceful and non-destructive methods of solving problems.
What makes a person great? Making others lives great.
