One frustrating thing about my iPod On-The-Go Playlist is that when I sync it with iTunes, I have another On-The-Go Playlist. (On-The-Go 1). It creates a static playlist on iTunes and on my iPod, leaving the actual On-The-Go Playlist blank. Does anyone know how to remedy this?
A happy PowerBook owner. *Yay-yeah!*

That's how it is supposed to work. The on-the-go list used to be simply deleted when you docked your iPod. Now it is saved, in case you want to keep it. Ideally the on-the-go list should be blank after a docking, that way it is easy to make a new one. Basically, this is how it is supposed to work, so there isn't much hope of working around it.

Don't worry drustar.

I haven't even tried it yet so this discussion helped me already. This is my first iPod and I just can't believe how nice it is.

I wish there was a way to make it so when you do make an on the go playlist and then sync with itunes that it didn't make a new playlist in itunes. Oh well at least it's easy to delete.
