I just downloaded the latest version of both as is recommended and now it's all jacked up - won't update iPod correctly or freezes? WTF??

Dunno, I always refuse to update mine.

I was scared of just the same thing. I can see myself...."NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! NOT MY MUSIC!!!!!"

Sorry - perhaps it will chill out in a bit.

Could you be more specific?
Which iPod do you have?
Is iTunes working?
Are you on a Mac or PC/Windows?
What OS version are your running?
Have you tried re-setting your iPod?

I never update mine...and now I'm sort of glad!

I always keep current and have yet to have a problem with my iPod or iTunes. But then I've worked for Apple Computer.

That sucks. Hopefully all your music is still on your computer when they get you a new iPod.

Don't worry. Whitney is nothing to cry over. Although, I really love that song of hers 'One Of Those Days.'

and I don't blame you for that. But I think it had more to do with your ipod maybe?

My iPod did that a month ago. It would freeze, it wouldn't update, I tried all the tricks off all the FAQs, but it kept giving me what I guess is the ERROR MESSAGE OF DOOM, the sad iPod and a weird folder icon with an exclamation point. It was just under a year old... I took it into the Apple Store, and the (hot) guy literally put it up to his ear and listened to it and told me the hard drive was busted. He went into the back and got me a new one instantly.

They were very cool about it. And the tech guy was hot. So all in all, not a terrible experience.

ETA: I've heard that the new version of iTunes SUCKS. It's creating crazy problems for people with their library, so if you haven't downloaded it already, avoid it. I'm not touching it.
