iPhone / iTouch 3.0

It's happened again - Apples latest and greatest software/hardware/evil encryption means only iTunes can talk to your iPod!

I've been doing 18 hour days at work lately which leaves little time for anything, let alone more coding. But next week I hope to be able to start working on SharePod support for firmware 3.0.

I got an email last week from someone who sent me a SharePod error message.
Normally this isn't a noteworthy event (lol) but this error message was from SharePod 2. SharePod 2 is over four years old now - to give that some context, the iPod Video wasn't even around then!
If anyone is using a version of SharePod that looks anything like this, please, please upgrade now :)

iTunes 8.2 and the 'AFCGetFileInfo' error

iTunes 8.2 has just been publicly released, and judging by the number of emails about an 'AFCGetFileInfo' error, lots of you have already installed it :)

SharePod 3.9.2 fixes this problem, so go ahead and download it now if you have an iPhone/iTouch and iTunes 8.2

Mad props go to Alex of wintense.com for pointing out the solution to me.

Version 3.9.1 available

Changes for this version:

• iTunes import works with iTunes 8.1.x
• Stop the 'Copy to iPod' file copy with iPhone 'Cancel Sync' slider
• Various iPhone issues
• Fixed: NullReferenceException when loading some iPods

Thanks for all the comments on the last post. Ive been overseas for the last 6 months with a lot of that time away from the internet, hence the lack of replies. Hopefully many of the little problems mentioned will be fixed by this version. Udun, your problem certainly will be fixed.

The hash72 errors are really hard to diagnose. Hash72 is what the iphone-linux-dev guys made to handle the protection Apple added to the iPhone 3G / iTouch 2.x. It seems to be fine on 99% of computers, but obviously there is a problem in some cases. I'll check it out on Win7 when I get a chance.
