Darin, Thanks. I had looked at gtkpod simply as a library to access iPods and other Apple devices -it seemed best to use existing libraries rather than try to do everything myself. If you (or anyone else) has any suggestions for better libraries to access Apple, please let me know. I don't need any of the GUI stuff, I just need to write, read and potentially delete tracks from the device in question - thanks! Sorry gPodder didn't work out for you, but I'm glad you got your podcasts synchronized!

Had I realize it needed to be setup/working in order for gpodder to work I might have given it a little effort. In the end I've ended up using the Banshee music player to sync podcasts, it's a bit more heavy weight then I'd like but it's doing the job. -- Later, Darin On Mon, Jul 14, 2014 at 11:08 AM, Redacted sender jnwickremasinghe@xxxxxxxxx for DMARC <dmarc-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Darin, > > I'm not familiar with the 'movetoipod' extension but gPodder 3.6.0 has > 'native' (i.e. not needing an extension) support for syncing to iPods. > (iPod should be one of the device options in the sync configuration tab.) > > It requires gtkpod to be set up and working, however. > > Have you tried that? > > Joseph > > -----Original Message----- > From: Darin Perusich <darin@xxxxxxxxxx> > To: gpodder@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Wed, 02 Jul 2014 9:59 AM > Subject: [gpodder] gpodder3 movetoipod.py extension > > Hello All, > > I suspect this gets asked, and re-asked, but I'm looking at trying to > get ipod support working for gpodder 3.7.0 under openSUSE 13.1.
