From the comments to the hint about how to find out the serial number of the last connected iPod, I came across the following CLI/Terminal command.
defaults read com.apple.iPod
The program will then provide various information, such as this one:
“Use Count” = 143;
It also shows the date the iPod(s) was/were last connected. I’d forgotten about the 40Gb iPod I bought from OfficeWorks, before getting it home and finding out it was an older one, still full of music (and in a new box, meaning someone had bought a new one, and returned the old one…). I returned it the next day, but here are it’s details:
000A2700026661B2 = {
Connected = 2004-10-09 10:42:14 +0930;
"Firmware Version" = 307;
ID = 000A2700026661B2;
"Serial Number" = JQ410859PNU;
"Software Version" = 35684352;
"Use Count" = 9;
};
I didn’t realise it was quite that long ago… September 10th 2004.
By the way, a Google of that Serial Number returns no hits. Maybe I should report it stolen…
