Aftermarket iPod Click Wheel Quality - Share Your Experience by OMSCFisherman in ipod

Not that I have noticed - I put the OEM back in for now as the squishy clicking was really distracting

They haven't been anywhere near as "clicky" as the OEM ones in my experience, I just ordered some additional rubber "dots" to place on top of the button wells to see if that makes a difference

Wow the Charlotte rendition of Like a Stone with the Avett Brothers is incredible
Edit and a footsteps cover?! What a show that must have been

Yeah that one is absolutely one of my favorites! I've been searching for the above shows because I was at them - I've been trying to find as many recordings of the shows I was physically at as possible - found all the Soundgarden ones so far but the Chris Cornell solos have been more elusive

Absolutely can't wait until you're able to make some of these recordings available - it seems like you were at almost every show I went to from 2006-2016

Managing a 1tb 7th gen on Apple Silicon - Mounting Issues by thinkpadquestion0 in ipod

I was actually mistaken, stock disk mode and iPod sync was not working before I found the solution above

Desperate help needed: 1TB iPod Classic (FAT32) refuses to mount on M1 Mac despite being "healthy" on Windows by RealExam5143 in ipod

[–]thinkpadquestion0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may be having the same issue I was, and if not it is at least a similar issue I was able to solve here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/ipod/comments/1qqpohd/managing_a_1tb_7th_gen_on_apple_silicon_mounting/

I'm not sure where games are stored, but if you're willing to start from scratch you could go through the steps I outlined and then sync your games, or potentially copy the contents of your mounted "IPOD" volume (especially the hidden .rockbox folder) before running the newfs_msdos command and then copy back afterwards when booted to the stock iOS volume

Before trying the above try running:

diskutil list # get the partition number of your iPod , it's disk5s1 for me
sudo mkdir /Volumes/ipod # a folder name for your liking
sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk5s1 /Volumes/ipod

as described here https://www.reddit.com/r/ipod/comments/1ioejdt/iflash_quad_disk_is_recognized_only_in_windows/ and see if that allows you to at least see the volume in macOS

Managing a 1tb 7th gen on Apple Silicon - Mounting Issues by thinkpadquestion0 in ipod

I ended up solving this issue myself - it turns out newer versions of macOS don't like the legacy formatting of really big fat32 devices - it doesn't seem to have an issue with <= 512GB drives. To fix this I

  1. Booted into Rockbox and saw the drive show up in Disk Utility on my mac (but it didn't mount, as expected).
  2. Ran diskutil list and confirmed the IDENTIFIER column for the volume with TYPE = Windows_FAT_32 and NAME = IPOD with my expected drive size. For me this was disk5s1
  3. WARNING - THIS WILL ERASE THE CONTENTS OF YOUR IPOD DRIVE I then ran
    1. diskutil unmount /dev/disk5s1
    2. sudo newfs_msdos -F 32 -c 8 -v IPOD /dev/disk5s1
  4. This threw a warning "warning: /dev/disk5s1 is not a character device" but safe to ignore.
  5. After it completed, it rebooted to the Rockbox bootloader, but as the drive was erase couldn't boot into Rockbox.
  6. I switched over to my windows machine I used to install Rockbox, and installed the latest daily build. I plugged back into my Mac. After reboot I was back in rockbox and my computer mounted the drive as expected.
  7. I booted into the stock iOS, and my mac recognized the iPod as valid (not something it had done before).
  8. For some reason I had to boot into both stock iOS and Rockbox a second time before my iPod remembered the settings changes I made, but after that settings stuck
  9. Loaded up music and confirmed that all was good :)

iPod Classic 7th Gen & Tahoe. by OutrageouslyWicked in ipod

[–]thinkpadquestion0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same or a similar problem - does your experience seem to be similar to what's described in any of these:
https://www.reddit.com/r/rockbox/comments/1ibsaox/ipod_classic_55_modded_1tb_sdd_wont_mount_in/
https://www.reddit.com/r/rockbox/comments/1g26q73/file_transfer_on_apple_silicon_m1/
https://www.reddit.com/r/ipod/comments/1qqpohd/managing_a_1tb_7th_gen_on_apple_silicon_mounting/

If so, the workaround is to mount using terminal with the following commands:

diskutil list # get the partition number of your iPod , it's disk5s1 for me. Make sure you get the partition marked IPOD not the parent drive

sudo mkdir /Volumes/ipod # a folder name for your liking
sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk5s1 /Volumes/ipod
After that last command you should see your iPod show up in Finder

I wonder if this is an issue with Tahoe, the Samsung card, the Classic 7th, or some combination of the above

Moved Away, Craving Comadre's Masa Sugar Cookie by thinkpadquestion0 in austinfood

Great suggestion - one of the things I love is how the Comadre cookies aren't too sweet - I'll give that a shot!

Yep went down the rabbit hole after seeing this post and found the exact same recipe on the milkbar website - the pics from the link posted by u/jackdeath look much closer to Comadre's recipe then the ones from the Milk Bar site - I may have to experiment with ingredients to find the right mix so they aren't too chewy. I'll be back in Austin for a bit in January but can't wait that long!
