TuneTech for iPod ReviewDoes not work. - Version: 1.5, 4/5/2007 12:44AM PST

I have a 5.5G Video iPod. I cannot run the repair or optimize routines. Any attempt to do so results in the following spurious errors:<br>
Error : Read error whilst trying to read the Wrapper Master Directory Block
Error : Read error whilst trying to read the HFS+ Volume Header block
Error : Invalid HFS+ signature found in the volume header (0000 - (n).
Error : Invalid HFS+ version number in the volume header (0).
Error : Invalid HFS+ total block count found in the volume header (0).
Error : Invalid HFS+ resource fork clump size found in the volume header (0).
Error : Invalid HFS+ data fork clump size found in the volume header (0).
Error : Unable to get the HFS+ volume header.
<br><br>DiskWarrior and Disk Utility report no problems whatsoever, and this is all on a freshly restored iPod using iTunes (latest version). I am still waiting for a response from their tech support, but for a $60 program to maintain an iPod, this is pretty sketchy behavior.

The wonderful thing about this app, is that by just slightly altering a few stings of code, you can modify TuneTech for iPod so that it works on not only iPods, but also on Palm Pilots, old Newtons, misc other PDAs, some cell phones, GPS devices, wireless IR remotes, and even electronic clock radios. I have tried TuneTech on various devices, and found that it improves their performance and reliability. It's not only good for iPods. My electronic clock radio, for instance never worked this well before. When you take this into consideration, imo it would be a bargain even at twice the price.

$59???

you can do most these things within osx, and with shareware and freeware apps.

for the money, you could buy almost 60 songs, or a new ipod shuffle...

rethink your price!
