I just imported a few more songs. Now when i update my ipod i get "attempting to copy to the disk "ipod" failed. The file name was invalid. Then it stops updating. I'm assuming one of the the new file names is wrong or something. Anyone know how to find or fix the problem.

Thanx

hi there

I had the same problem. So what i Did was i unchecked the most recent songs on my list and set my ipod to copy only checked songs. That didn't work there was the error so what i did was i went to my preferences and set my ipod up to not copy any podcasts. Now its working fine all i need to do now is check and unchecked each podcast to see which one has the bad file name. And then unscribe from that podcast feed.
