Hey, I'm new here as you can see by my post count (this is my first). Anyways, I had just recently put RockBox onto my iPod Video 5.5g (I love it), but I'm kinda having trounle with my music. I hook my iPod up to my PC, and I add some songs through iTunes. I look through my iPod and can't find them! I load the original  firmware and I can find them. What's the deal? Any help would be awesome! Thanks!

psycho_maniac:
rockbox cannot see your songs through the itunes database but you can use the rockbox database to view your songs you added through itunes i believe. in the main menu click database and it should say database not ready....initialize now?
SELECT=yes
Any Other=no

also please read this
http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodFAQ#Can_I_use_my_iTunes_Database and read the very top part of this page where its at starting with the question Can I use my iTunes Database which will be on the top part of your screen"

Unusual_Rex:
Is there anyway I can "update" RockBox to show that I have added new songs?

Edit: Okay... I just got the songs that I added to show but... they are the only songs visible... any clues how to resore the rest of my songs?

AlexP:
The update now option is good for this.  Also, you can turn auto update on.  I suggest you read the manual for these and other answers.

Unusual_Rex:
Thanks for the help! I got them to load some how by messing around with RockBox. Thanks!
