It will mount to the Finder fine, but iTunes and iSync don&#8217;t recognize it at all. The only fix is to unmount and unplug it, shut down the machine, and then unplug the machine&#8217;s power cord and let it sit for five minutes before powering it on again &#8212; apparently this will clear a frozen FireWire port.<\/p>\n<p>I forgot to unplug the iPod after installing the update tonight, though, and was pleasantly surprised to see iSync and iTunes launching after login, indicating that they saw the iPod without a hitch.
