I'd have an Alpine CDE-102i(?) with iPod dock in my car, and use it with my 2G Touch.
Every time I connect to a Mac/PC and change songs loaded on the iPod it resets the playlist so it just plays all songs in alphabetical order. Ok, fair enough, I guess that's expected.
Normally when I haven't connected it to iTunes it remembers where I am in the playlist/what artist/album/etc I'm listening to. So I can take it in to work/home, use it for the day (sometimes tunes, sometimes just email/web) then when I plug it back in my car it keeps playing from where it was. However, most annoyingly it often it resets back to playing all songs by all artists in alphabetical order. So much so that half the time I don't bother even choosing tunes by artist or album, I just hit the "mix all" button on the stereo. It's still annoying though so finally got around to posting here...
Anyone else get this? Why does it do this? Is it the iPod or the stereo making it happen? Any known ways to make it stop? It gets annoying getting in the car to rush off somewhere, then I get the first alphabetical song and the first thing I have to do is try to change the tune.
Currently I'm sick to death of "Addicted" by Amy Winehouse! Other times I puposefully load a song on it beginning with "A" I really, really like cuz I know I'm gonna be hearing it a helluva lot!
