ipod not synced because it couldn't be found after eleep
This has been going on for years, pretty much the whole time for me. Almost every night, I plug in my ipod and ipad and iphone to charge them. When I plug in my ipod, it syncs then shows the charging symbol and I can just unplug it if I wish. I leave it plugged in to charge, then much later, I put my computer to sleep and almost every morning, when my computer wakes up, things have changed in iPod Land:
1. my ipod says "Do not disconnect" and iTunes shows it as being plugged in.
2. Furthermore, the iPod now shows up in the DEVICES part of Finder windows along with my hard drives, which is odd because I do NOT have "Enable disk use" checked.
3. When I try to sync it by right clicking on it and choosing sync, or by clicking the Sync button in iTunes, I get a message saying the iPod was not synced because "it couldn't be found."
4. If I simply unplug it, I get a warning that the device was disconnected improperly.
The only thing I can do that does not get an error dialog is to go to the Finder, mouse over the iPod under DEVICES and click the eject icon next to it. However, even then, the iPod remains showing as connected in iTunes and trying to sync it gives the "cannot be found" message.
This does not keep me from getting by, but I can't be the only one experiencing this. Am I? It
iPod classic, 5th gen, software version 1.3
