I have a video iPod and now, whenever I try to put music on it, the "other" space in the capacity section fills up (which is orange). I have never had this problem so I tried resetting my ipod and it does the same thing. Someone please help me.
Keep in mind that this space is also used for album art. My 30 GB iPod is basically 100% full with music (no other files placed on there manually by me), and the "Other" shows 543 MB for me. I'm sure I could reclaim that space if I unchecked Display album artwork on your iPod under the Music tab.
