iPod Notifications
-
I'm trying to detect when an iPod Touch is connected or disconnected.
I can see all kinds of stuff in the console when I connect it. Can
anyone recommend an notification to listen for when it's connected or
disconnected ? I need to keep a list updated with all the connected
iPods. If a new one shows up or disappears I need to know. I figure
there is probably a good pair of notifications to register for.
Last time I asked about the touch I got some answers that might have
been covered by NDA. While I too am under the NDA, I don't think this
one is anything special. Actually I didn't think the last one was
either but... please don't break the NDA.
I asked before about getting the iPod's name. I found that I could do
the trick of looking at the mounted volumes to find non-touch iPods.
Then a little applescript to iTunes gets me the complete list of
connected iPods. With a little comparison and I can figure it all out.
Who knew it would be so simple ?
Thanks,
Matt -

As with the previous question, there is no public API to do this.
