[X4U] iPods etc not mounting after update

[Jon Wever]

Hello all - I'm looking for help with the following. Any suggestions  
will be greatly appreciated!

The machine involved is a dual 1.42GHz G4 G4 (the one with mirrored  
drive doors) with 10.4.7.

  Yesterday I upgraded to iTunes 7.0.2 and now none my iPods are  
recognized: I have a 1G connected by firewire400, a 4G on FW800 and a  
1GB Shuffle on USB2 (via PCI card). All of them are 'seen' by System  
profiler, but none of them mount on the desktop (they are all set for  
disk use) nor do they appear in iTunes. Up until the upgrade they  
were working perfectly.

I know that all three iPods are still fine - they connect to other  
Macs or PCs without issue - and I'm taking heart from System Profiler  
that this isn't a hardware issue. (Plus I can still use an iSight on  
firewire and transfer files by USB from a camera...).

Also, I've got a Sandisk card reader attached by USB and recognized  
in Sys Prof but if load a card ... same deal. Nothing. I've tried SD,  
MS Pro and CF cards with no joy.

So, any thoughts about where I can go next? I've thought of  
downloading and reinstalling the iTunes package, or even going the  
whole nine yards and reapplying the 10.4.7 Combo Update package.

Other than that, I'm out of ideas.

Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
Jon
