I would usually head down to user support to check to see if it's a computer issue, but I don't want them to delete my hard drive without informing me they are going to do so...again.

I'm currently having some problems with iTunes and my Mini.

For iTunes, it will continually crash, close, and then reopen again, interrupting the music. It's bizarre, and I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem and whether it is related to the update to 6.0.

As for the Mini, my laptop refused to recognize it, claiming that the USB device has malfunctioned. Mind you, I haven't really charged the iPod with the laptop for two weeks now, but I am unsure how exactly this problem can be solved. Has anyone else had this problem? Would this be my USB ports acting funny (Which they tend to do) or an iPod software problem? (Reset Settings on Mini, Working Now, Will run Updater soon)

Thanks.
 
Something similar has happened to me, but I have the 4th gen 20 gig ipod. My PC also says that the USB is malfunctioning so I cannot restore the ipod to factory settings. I am going to have to send it back to Apple for repair. For anyone else that has done this, how long does it take for Apple to return the unit?

I just reset the setting in the menu selection (On the Mini, mind you) and it now works. Thanks inclusing the term "settings" in your post! Let's hope someone has an answer to your question.
