Doesn't have to be iTunes, indeed better not to use it.  Just drag-and-drop, but in OF mode not RB mode.

BranMakMorn:
Alright, thanks everyone. It seems like that doing a lot of small transfers is working out, for the time being. It will take ages to move all my music, but I'll see if I manage -- once it's there, it's there. Should it keep failing, I'll try doing it through the Apple firmware.

BranMakMorn:
Sorry guys I need help again.

The transfer of files in Rockbox mode did NOT work out, so I had to restore the iPod again, put it in Disk Mode, and try that way. That worked.

I ejected it, disconnected it, and rebooted. Rockbox launched fine.

I went under Database to make it start do the database scan. It did, but it got stuck after just a few thousand items. Uncertain what to do, I rebooted it again after 5 minutes of wait (Select+Menu). Well, now it shows the apple for a few seconds, then the ROCKBOX title screen (the one with the "Ver. 3.13")....and that's it. It remains stuck there. If I reboot it, the same happens. If i connect it to my laptop, nothing happens at all (but if I put it in Disk Mode, then i can access the folders inside when plugged in).

What is going on? Should I restore it via iTunes again, and do it all from the beginning?

[Saint]:
Can you please attempt to reproduce this with a build of Rockbox that isn't literally years old?

Please use the development build, not the release.
Thanks.

Edit: And,no, you don't have to restore with iTunes every time. You may format the volume mounted under the Original Firmware or forcing Disk Mode.

Sorry, I didn't realize I wasn't supposed to use the Rocbbox Utility! I'll try again.

EDIT: I meant, use the Utility but select "Development" rather than "Stable", sorry
