Re: Banshee not connecting to ipod
I just found this topic and made it sticky - hope it helps
Re: Banshee not connecting to ipod
Thanks for that, but there is no mention of Banshee not showing up a plugged in ipod. I just can't get Banshee to detect it.
Re: Banshee not connecting to ipod
Ah - much to read there
I found that this is a bug because of the switch from HAL to device-kit
Found a workaround
Start banshee, open a terminal and issue: nautilus -q
Then plug in your iPod and mount the iPod through nautilus - Banshee then picks up the iPod.

Re: Banshee not connecting to ipod
Thank you for taking the time to find that for me, you obviously had more success than I.
As requested i typed i typed nautilus -q (exactly like that) into the terminal, but it gave me this response: (nautilus:5869): Eel-CRITICAL **: eel_preferences_get_boolean: assertion `preferences_is_initialized ()' failed
Why is it saying failed?

Re: Banshee not connecting to ipod
Oh no - you can't use that in Helena - there's some change to Nautilus
I'll see if I can find a solution

Re: Banshee not connecting to ipod
Well the q option is not important - it's just quiet, Do not complain if no processes were killed.
Simply use killall nautilus (I've seen killall -9 but I still have to figure out what that is) and hope that's it
Sorry for not answering that immediately, it's very easy to find out
Banshee is supposed to work with an Ipod.....
