iPod nano problems only when Flyakite is installed

Before you scream: I know similar questions have asked in this forum before (i actually used the search). But i think there only two threads and they were related to the ipod shuffle. Personally i own the ipod nano.

I love Flyakite and I want to use it with every single option it has. Sadly I found out that my itunes won't sync with my ipod, when Flyakite is installed - neither manually nore automatically. The symptoms are different. Sometimes I get an error popup informing me the iPod could not be read and not be written to. Sometimes iTunes claims my nano had been synced and I could disconnect it, but no data has been changed on the iPod (this happens most of the time). Windows recognizes my iPod every single time i connect it, iTunes and other apps like iPod Wizard don't. iPod Updater is only able to mount the iPod when I plug it in while the Updater app is running. And now the best part: I'm able to sync my nano right after I restore it, but only until I disconnect it for the first time. After that the above mentioned happens.

I really tried to isolate the problem and first I couldn't believe it was Flyakite. By uninstalling different components of the pack, I could track down the problem to the *.dll files. If the *.dll files are not installed, everything works just fine. I already mailed flyakite about this, but he doesn't seem to respond (it's been about two weeks since).

The question now is: Does anybody have a clue which exact *.dll causes the problem, so i can simply not install it? there's a lot of *.dll's being replaced during setup and testing all of them sperately is not an option.

I appreciate your help

This is an issue with your iPod, not Flyakite. I have a 2GB Nano and Flyakite. iTunes syncs fine. Reset your Nano, then use the iPod updater's Restore function.

Though now that I read further, if it's a dll issue, it might have to do with how you've juggled Flyakite and Windows' security updates. Do you run the system file updater every time you apply Windows security updates?

The System File Updater always tells me, there were no updates :(
