I've tried your trash extension and re-start.
I've also tried resetting.
I put in on charge all last night
I can't see it in Disk Utility to Mount, but I can see it in System Profiler!
Whatever I do, screen still says "do not disconnect"

Ugh!!

My 20gb ipod that's been working fine now isn't. When I plug it into my powerbook (1.67 Ghz, Powerpc G4 running Mac os x 10.4.3), it's screen changed to "Do not disconnect" but no ipod mounted in itunes or finder. I've tried resetting but the screen seems to be locked on "Do not disconnect". I've got the last ipod updater (2005-11-17) and the latest itunes.(itunes 6.0.1)

Any ideas?

Hi Rosemary,

You could try: Open disk utility and see if you can mount the ipod from there.

I found this in Apple discussions: trash the extension "iPodDriver.kext" and restart your mac. The ipod was then able to mount automatically.

This is the location of this extension:
/System/Library/Extensions/iPodDriver.kext

Cheers,

Ronni
