DUKEAUS:
I'm a newbie to this software. I got my first I-POD at an auction at Goodwill its a Mini kinda old but it was cheap.( I'm 51 yo) only two weeks ago and I am not a fan of I-Tunes so this for me is a God send. I finally decided to try it and I'm learning. Just one small gripe the pdf from the site is missing one small bit of info at least in my case 3.3 USB Charging
The player can be charged over USB without connecting to your computer by holding
Menu while plugging in. This allows you to continue using the player normally. This is missing from the pdf on the site. It drove me nutty for a min. but hey I'm old but it may help someone else. hope I put this in the right place. ;D

saratoga:
Some of the ipods don't charge in Rockbox, so that section is probably omitted on purpose. 

DUKEAUS:
On mine it stays in rockbox for a little while then it goes into do not disconnect. Why?

saratoga:
Some versions of Rockbox reboot into the Apple firmware for USB since they don't charge (and mounting a disk in USB mode without charging will drain the battery very quickly).

DUKEAUS:
Thanks for the response ;D I'm sitting here going tru all the settings and just playing with it :P. now I'm going to attempt to put some music on it. It is staying in the mode now it was probably me ;D. believe me I'm having a hard time understanding how to do it. Will it show up as a device in wmp 11?
