In the past few days I have noticed that my 5G (approximately a year old) iPod is behaving very oddly. I have recently updated to iTunes 7.1 but cannot be certain that the two are linked.
The problem occurs when I run my finger quickly round the scroll wheel to activate the fast scroll feature, i.e. the feature enabled by a firmware update where you can just scroll to a certain letter of the alphabet. Albums and songs beginning with "the" are listed in the correct position (e.g. it goes His N' Hers, The Holy Bible, Homework, etc) but the fast scroll is picking them up as individual letter entries. So, for example, when I fast scroll through my albums list instead of the alphabet going A, B, C, D, etc, it goes A, B, T, B, C, T, C, T ..., giving me a 'T' every time a "the" album appears in the list and making the feature very hard to use predictably. This is happening on my 'Albums' and 'Songs' lists, but not my 'Artists' list.
Has anybody else seen anything like this? Does anybody have any suggestions for fixing this behaviour?
