Default My iPod and PTLE 6.2.2 isn\'t playing nice

Maybe this is just the way it is... but if I mount my iPod first using 10.2.3 (yeah, I know it's not approved yet), then try to launch PTLE, it won't launch. It says that the firewire port is in use or something like that.

But if eject my iPod then launch PT, everything will be fine. Then I mount my iPod and I'm good to go. UNTIL i go to eject the iPod... as it won't let me. It says another program is accessing the device or something like that.

It's a major pain because I'll do a test mix, send it to my iPod, then take it to the car. And every time I do so... I have to close PTLE and Reason to eject the iPod. Then come back to my Mac, and have to launch PT and Reason all over again. It's very time consuming.

I did a search, and didn't really find much useful info. I found that Digi Database somehow puts files on your iPod, however, I've yet to see them. But I'm wondering if that is part of the problem?

Perhaps it's because Digi can't tell it's software to make the difference between and iPod and a regular FW HDD. It has to see it just like any other FW HDD. Maybe that's just the "obvious". Sorry.

Anyway, don't flame me for not searching.. or knowing the magic "search words" please. Can anyone make a suggestion??

Thanks!

Jason
