"usb Device not recognized"
my computer or itunes do not recognize my shuffle, i tried to follow the tips at the thread below:

However my symptoms are different, i plug in the shuffle into my high powered usb 2.0 port and i get a green light, followed by a green and orange ligt simultaneously, along with a glimmer of hope, then i get a full orange light for a few seconds, then in the taskbar i get a pop up saying "one of the device attached to the computer has malfunctioned" and the light goes away. at the moment i can still charge via a ps/2 port using a converter type thing that came with my logitech mouse but i can't sync nor use it as a memory stick. i am going to apply for applcare warranty on monday online, was just wondering do any of you know how to fix this? at least i know the usb port isn't damaged as it can charge.
also i never touched those hidden files on my ipod called "ipod_control" or something along those lines, so it isn't a software prolem.
I have tried uninstalling everything to do with my ipod including quicktime, installed the softaware CD, still no luck, also i then updated, still no luck.
(sorry for the long winded post)
