[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1001142"] Holy crap everyone, there's someone here who ACTUALLY owns a ZUNE!! :D Just razzin' ya. Yeah, you need to properly eject all removable drives, such as that Zune, an iPod, a digital camera, a thumb drive, etc. Three ways to do this generally: 1. The way most people do it -- drag the mounted volume (which in the case of the Zune or most thumb drives is a white icon on the desktop called "UNKNOWN") to the trash -- the trashcan on the dock changed into an "eject" symbol. After a few seconds the icon will disappear from the desktop and then it's safe to pull it out. 2. Right click on the mounted volume and select "Eject." 3. Select the mounted volume by clicking it once (left click), then pressing the eject key on your keyboard (usually in the upper right corner). In addition, some apps have the "eject" symbol next to drives that they can "see," like iTunes, iPhoto etc. You can just press the eject symbol next to the name of the drive in their left-hand panes and that does the same thing.
