While formating the ipod in disk utility it shows as the orange disk picture and then changes back to the standard white disk thing.

 

I hate the standrad white disk.The orange icon standard on other external harddrives i think.

 

Please please help. :):unsure:

not sure why its doing that but you could always just manually change the icon to whatever you wanted it to be, i changed the default icon for my ipod, altho its still just an ipod not a formatted external disk, and now when i plug it in i always see the new icon, im assuming it would work for this since any icon is changeable
