Title says it all. I'm on Mac with the latest iTunes and it doesn't recognize my iPod anymore although it mounts to the desktop. I tried all and everything but it doesn't work (the iPod works on other Macs though, it itself is fine).

How can I copy my music to the iPod without going through iTunes? Are there any tools like on Windows for this?

Thanks!
