The Safely Remove Hardware feature and the Windows Explorer “Eject” command do not work correctly with an Apple iPod that is connected to a Windows Vista-based computer.
When you try to disconnect an iPod from a Windows-Vista based computer, the data on the iPod may become corrupted!
The solution?
Make sure you have SP2 for Windows Vista installed on your Vista PC.
