When I first had my 360 when I plugged in my Ipod it would say in the media tab that it was an Ipod and it would let me play saved playlists I made from Itunes. Now I noticed it says in general that an audiobook is plugged in instead of recognizing my Ipod and it doesnt let me play any saved playlists. It says that there aren't any. Was there some sort of update to take away some of those ipod specific features?

have the same... Don't have playlists, so wouldn't know about that, but also said 'audiobook' in my local language. Plays like it used to do however, but still no support for songs that you bought via iTunes apparently, which sucks.

I've also noticed it only seems to play the first 100 songs in a playlist, which is completely ridiculous.

Yea this was such a well thought out and executed "feature" that I just plug my iPod into my auxilary speaker jack and control the music directly through the iPod so I don't have to deal with the 360. I can just see how this was implemented:

Boss: Hey Ricky, the PS3 is coming out in a year so we need to get this 360 out the door ASAP. How's that iPod connection working?

Ricky: Well it sorta works but not very well at all...actually it sucks

Boss: Stop right there, that's good enough. No one really uses iPods anyway now that the Zune is out. Just take out the heat sinks and we're good to go!

Me: K... well you're a really big idiot because what you said makes no effort to help me at all. You're just trying to be funny and you suck at it. You didnt read what I said because I said that when I bought it my xbox had a better connection with my ipod than what it does now. So your little convo you typed up to try and say that the ipod connection was rushed and not doen is complely stupid and wrong because when they put it out it worked fine. And also you're stupid because an auxilary connection with an ipod doesnt have the same sound quality by any means when compared to a USB connection. And you're wrong about the Ipods being replaced by zunes because Ipod is still #1 in sales and popularity. So to sum it all up I really hate when someone like you comes to a thread and answers a serious question with total garbage. I really hate you and I hope you die sooner than later like your hero the Hoff's career.

Well then, good thing I have a Zune 8)

Anyway, I have seen a ton of topics about people having problems with the iPod & 360. Guess it's time to upgrade:)

ME & Hasselhoff: Laughing so hard at the ramblings of a 9 year old mentality we're blue in the face (Hoff's a little buzzed too). First, I did try to help by telling you I plug the ipod into an aux jack instead and it works beautifully. If an alternative solution isn't help, I don't know what is. Did you want me to tell you how to hack the bootloader on your 360 to better accomodate your ipod? Second, unless you have a poor audio setup w/ a weak aux, an aux connection can be just as good, or better if you use the equalizer, than USB. Third, I stand behind the innuendo that the ipod integration wasn't fully developed, it's a clunky implementation that leaves much room for improvement. The ipod interface is a much better navigation tool than the 360 menus. Fourth, I know the ipod is #1, that was sarcasm. Finally, I'm sorry for trying to have a little fun on a gaming forum, I'm usually here for entertainment and as such I generally don't respond with the same kind of profesionalism I would in a work environment.

Have a great day Captain Skippy! Thanks for the laughs!

^^^^^Please no flaming^^^^^^

You can't play songs that you bought because of the DRM they put on the song.

So that means your playlist is made up of all songs that were bought.
