iTunes and your MuVo
So you've decided to get yourself a Creative MuVo and use it with your Mac. Welcome.
If you set yourself up a few months ago (Muvo out of the box and iTunes 4.7.0) then you're set. If you want to continue on with the march of progress, two major things will change for you:
(1) MuVo has released a firmware update. This makes a number of minor tweaks/enhancements and updates the format to FAT16. In order to update your firmware you'll need to do it on a Windows machine. I've tested this with Virutal PC (WinXP) and it works fine.
(2) This firmware update will break iTunes (don't panic - it will still be usable) and keep the MuVo from showing up as connected devices. If you're not afraid of using a GUI to edit application source code the fix is quick and painless. You can find it at minimal.cx
(maybe you can sweet-talk one of your Mac-guru friends into doing this for you).
