Hi

And another one concerning message boxes: when do a "Check iPod's
files", one message box is created per file - it would be more useful,
to suppress those and just to display a summary message at the end - I
just had to close again more then 100 message boxes.

And I still have the crashs. But I will try it on natty or a new
maverick install, as I assume that it is caused by the disconnects
specific to my iPod, PC or installation of Ubuntu.
