    Another great tutorial, Thanks.

    Nice how-to but it’s pretty ugly that brown and blue colour combination, it isn’t?

    3 Ross McKillop 07.04.07 at 4:56 pm

    El Cerrajero -

    Hahah yeah it is kinda ugly. For the sake of tutorials/overviews I leave all the defaults - the brown is Ubuntu’s default theme. The blue is Amarok’s default theme. When I’m not using Ubuntu for screenshots etc, I actually have Compiz enabled with a different theme.

    4 Dapilot1 07.04.07 at 8:20 pm

    Thanks for the help, but what about if you have an iPod Video. How do you get videos and photos on to it?

    5 Bios 07.04.07 at 8:55 pm

    I always love the tips and tutorials I can find on this site, no wonder i’m a RSS subscriber and I think many more people should be too. Thanks for posting this and your other useful posts.

    6 Jordan Meeter 07.04.07 at 9:08 pm

    Thanks for the great guide, I would like to see more articles like this!

    7 Robvdl 07.04.07 at 9:15 pm

    Does it handle OGG? I mean the iPod itself doesn’t handle OGG - I know that, but a friend of mine has a music collection where more than half of it is on OGG. I have not yet found a Linux program that can convert OGG files on the fly when you transfer them, and converting them by hand is not really a good option.

    I will have to try it out. If it can convert OGG’s on the fly, that would be awesome.

    “Thanks for the help, but what about if you have an iPod Video. How do you get videos and photos on to it?”

    Then you can use gtkpod.

    Dapilot1 - what Mike said (thanks Mike!)

    Jordan - Songbird is up next, then yamipod, then gtkpod then a few others. Eventually I’ll be doing a “x alternatives to using iTunes to manage your iPod” type of post, with summaries of all the alternatives (the free/open source ones anyway). And thanks for the compliment!

    Bios - assuming you’re not a spam bot, thanks!

    What do you use to manage your music?

    11 tim 07.05.07 at 7:14 am

    this is great, however, do you know of any plug-ins or adaptations that allow for mainstream music mp3 purchases… such as iTMS?

    Thanks,

    12 David Corona 07.10.07 at 9:58 pm

    THANKS!!! My Ipod was a rejected from Itunes. Simply no comunication between them in windows. I was about to send it to service, and since Apple has no store in my town, there was about 30 dolars delivery and a 15 days waiting period. But now Amarok made it sound perfectly!

    Thaks to the one that wrote the tutorail.

    Nice Tutorial! Infact I use Amarok for music transfer to my Video iPod. However, the feature in iTunes which I love and which Amarok doesn’t seem to have, is that you can create playlists. Is there a way to do that , in amarok?

    14 Pensax 10.17.07 at 10:56 am

    Are there any solution to load mp4 in ipod using amarok?

    Great tutorial. It is sites like this that making the transition to Linux from Windows worth it. Thanks.

    Sup-erb tutorial - read several ‘HOW TO’s’ and this is the best - simple and clear with great screenshots.

    It seems like in Hardy Heron the System Preferences->Removable Devices and Media doesn’t have a multimedia tab any longer.

    19 Ross McKillop 05.08.08 at 7:42 pm

    @joe:

    I’ll scare up my old iPod and give it a run in Hardy

    20 joe 05.08.08 at 7:56 pm

    I found two possible places where it could be set in Hardy:

    1. System Preferences -> Preferred Applications -> Multimedia where you can choose a Custom Multimedia Player, I set this to amarok, but it still launches Rhythmbox on insert

    2. Nautalus edit->Preferences->Media has a bunch of options for opening Rhythmbox for music player, but doesn’t let you specify an alternative!

    21 joe 05.08.08 at 8:29 pm

    Maybe I didn’t make it clear in my previous comment, both of those places *do not work*

    22 PICCORO 05.16.08 at 10:13 am

    no es necesario el amarok tan nuevo, con el 1.4.6 es mas que suficiente..

    sobre la gestion de caratulas, amarok 1.4.8 ya configura las caratuals tranquilamente

    sobre actualizar el ipod cuando se pierde la lista no hay que hacer tanto alboroto con sysinfo, la libreria nueva 0.6.0 y 0.6.1(cvs) ofrecen un simple comando que solo se debe ejecutar una vez llamado readsysinfo..

    aqui estan lospaquetes mas actualizados tanto de amarok como de libgpod, y tambien como instalarlos

    24 Jersoncito 06.28.08 at 11:34 am

    I found Rhytmbox easier to use with the ipod.
    For videos/ipod Banshee 1.0 is excelent.
    Thanks for the guide!

    I’ve got my iPod working great on Ubuntu, but there is a nagging issue for me. In iTunes you can sync your iPod so that it deletes files that you’ve deleted from your library and add files that you’ve added. Is there any way to do this in Amarok?

    26 dave 07.31.08 at 5:01 am

    Yes, it seems the multimedia tab is missing from System Preferences->Removable Devices and Media. Is there any way to get it back??

    27 David Roundy 08.10.08 at 2:08 pm

    I’m also curious about this missing multimedia tab in the System Preferences->Removable Devices and Media.

    Has anyone figured out what causes this? It’s rather annoying having Rhythmbox keep popping up (and sometimes crashing).

    28 Remy Carson 08.14.08 at 5:24 am

    Have found the answer to a question that a lot of you have been asking.

    David Roundy 08.10.08 at 2:08 pm

    I?m also curious about this missing multimedia tab in the System Preferences->Removable Devices and Media.

    It has move to: System Preferences->Preferred Applications

    Click the multimedia tab, scroll down to Custom player

    then add: /urs/bin/amarok

    It should now open amarok as your default player.

    Cheers RC.

    29 techtastic 08.14.08 at 2:16 pm

    as stated above my Joe, the System Preferences -> Preferred Applications -> Custom Multimedia option doesnt open amarok by default, im still getting rhythmbox to launch automatically even though i have amarok set as the preferred app.
    im guessing its coded somewhere else or that an ipod isnt considered a “multimedia player” by hardy.
    it wont be long till i nuke gnome anyways, but if i find a solution in the mean-time, ill be sure to post it.
    Regards,
    Dan

    oh, and excellent tutorial, cheers m8

    30 Sean 09.07.08 at 9:01 am

    Have the same issue with Hardy and Rhythmbox, any answers?

    31 david tutton 10.07.08 at 2:16 am

    Hi I have a problem with the new Ipod Touch 8GB. It is not recognised in either Ubuntu 8.04 or SUSE 11. When I go into amarok settings configure media devices it is not recognised. I run dccop kded mediamanager fullList and it is not seen. It is not seen by fdisk -l. Any ideas?
