You might need to boot Apple's firmware for your player to be recognized as an iPod.

Are you trying to use iTunes with the Rockbox firmware (which won't work...) by any chance?

You'll need to boot into the Apple OF in order to use iTunes.
(Holding Menu or applying the Hold switch while booting will boot the Apple OF as outlined in the manual)

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.
