iPod touch How can I 'see' my iPodTouch on my Mac??

[jbrown]

Hi,
New to iPods - so still finding my way.

I'd like to be able to plug in my IPT, and see it as I would a hard disk, thereby being able to add/remove files.

On a related side, I can see it on iTunes, but all the songs are greyed out, so again I can't manipulate them. HOW do you delete, rename etc. songs or files?

cheers all

You can't. They disabled Disk Mode for all iPod touches.

If you jailbroke yours, you can use SCP or SFTP to store stuff in /private/. Just make a folder, something like /private/my_data/ and anything in there will go on the 8 or 16gb drive.

For Windows there is... not sure about Mac. Search the forums.

It's really just copy and paste.
