So I have iPod touch with original 2.0 FW and Remote app on it. It works great on Windows but on Hackintosh (the same computer) iTunes can't see my iPod remote. I think it's because my Wi-Fi card (Zydas USB) is recognized as normal enthernet card, not Wi-Fi so iTunes aren't searching for iPod in this network. My qustion: Is there any workaround for that?
Colonel
As long as they're both on the same network, it should work fine, so you're Wi-Fi card is not to blame... hmm...

So what could be a problem? I've tried many things: connect iPod normally (only Wi-Fi), with iPod connected to Wi-Fi and by cable to Hackintosh, reinstalling remote app and nothing helped.

I would make sure that iTunes is up to date on both systems.

I'm sure this, it's version 7.7, no new updates on SU, I haven't ignored any updates so it's the newest version
Hara Taiki
7.7.1 is the latest version, it may fix your issue.

upgraded and still the same problem
Hara Taiki
Odd, I just did a complete OSx86 install, updated to latest Leopard, and iTunes 7.7.1 and it works absolutely fine.

but you don't have zydas usb wi-fi? If yes, I probably will have to buy a new wi-fi card :/
Hara Taiki
No, I don't, but I would swap wi-fi cards anyway. I have an RT2500 based Linksys USB adapter that works absolutely great with OS X and a simple hacked kext.

So I'll Have to buy a new wi-fi card, anyway thanks for help
