Using iPod As a Mass Storage Device?
Okay, so I got myself a new deck for the car that has direct controls for iPod. Problem is that since my iPod with 4th gen, it doesn't support on-the-unit controls for it (my sister's 2nd Gen Nano works beautifully).
I tried plugging in my USB stick and it works fine. So I got to thinking. What if I just copy/paste files onto the iPod without using iTunes and have the deck recognize it as a storage device instead of an iPod. Problem is that it doesn't. It sees it as an iPod no matter what and won't play the files via USB.
Is there anything I can do to make it appear as a simple USB hard drive? Firmware stripping? I'm open to suggestions.
