Description Paul Drain 2008-01-24 16:29:31 UTC 
Trying to copy a file such as: 01-artist-music!.mp3 or 02-other-artist?.mp3 from the library to a new iPod brings up:

Could not open file "/media/disk/iPod_Control/Music/f10/03 - Wot Do U Call It?.mp3" for writing.

The track transfer for the remaining tracks continues on normally, but it might be good to do what iTunes does here and ask the user if they'd like to rename the file (or, probably better -- just strip the symbols and then copy the track).
