GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 520044
rhythmbox fails to delete files from iPod
Last modified: 2008-03-03 09:13:47 UTC
Please describe the problem: Upon connecting an iPod with files loaded (was set up on a Windows machine with iTunes), deleting files from the iPod removes them from the listing in rhythmbox and from the listing on the iPod, but does not remove them from the device. The files are left taking up space and there is no way to remove them. Eject/reconnect does nothing. This is on a 1 generation old nano (the last "long" shaped ones), 8GB, Ubuntu 7.10, Rhythmbox 0.11.2 Steps to reproduce: 1. Connect an iPod with files on it that was set up on win32/iTunes (untested with iPod set up on Mac, etc) 2. Attempt to delete files from the iPod in Rhythmbox 3. Used space doesn't decrease. If the iPod was full, it will remain full and no new files can be copied. Actual results: The files aren't really deleted. Expected results: The files should be deleted, freeing up space on the iPod. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information:
This should be fixed in newer rhythmbox versions *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 346434 ***
