Sorry, but I'm not sure if I understand this correctly. I tried that but
as far as I could see there was no option to add the report to the existing
bug when doing this with apport. Do you really mean that I should file a new 
report instead? This sounds silly to me because like this the other relevant 
information contained in this report is not connected to the new report and 
therefore most probably lost.

Sorry, if you really can't use the log when it's attached to a report rather 
than submitted with apport. But I won't be able to submit it again for quite
some time because this is a problem on a computer I support for my mother and
I don't have access to it if I'm not at her place.

Additionaly the problem is now solved for her by initializing the iPod with 
iTunes
under MS Windows. The iPod was only initialized (clicking through some license 
agrements) but no music was synchronized to the iPod. It was still empty when I 
connected it to rhythmbox again. Then I could copy music on to the iPod without
a crash.

I also don't understand why this bug repeatedly gets closed as invalid if 
several people independently report and confirm it. IMHO there is not much 
doubt that there is really a bug. But again coming from a Debian perspective
I'm neither familiar with Launchpad bug statuses nor with bug handling best 
practices
in Ubuntu in general. But as a Debian Developer this does not really 
increase my motivation to contribute to Ubuntu by providing bug reports if 
I encounter bugs on Ubuntu machines.
