  1. “iLife ’06 should have been a free upgrade, it offers little.”

    I’ve already taken advantage of the calendars in iPhoto, the new themes in iMovie, and started working with iWeb. Actually, I’ve been pretty impressed with iLife ’06. But then, I’m upgrading from iLife ’04.

    I would agree, though, that it’s not worth upgrading if there’s nothing “compelling.” That’s why I didn’t bother with iLife ’05.

    that’s part of the problem. the iPod does not show in the updater. It says please plug in an iPod to update. It doesn’t show on the firewire bus in system profiler, it doesn’t show up in disk utility, the finder or iTunes. The built-in iPod diagnostics all show everything’s ok.
    next step is to try some different firewire cables. everything worked perfectly until 10.4.4/iPod update 2006-01-10. I used to use my iPod in disk mode to transfer work files all the time. Now I can’t.
