DO NOT update your apps for the moment at it seems alot of users are losing thier 3rd party app function and losing all the music in iphone!!

u mean this happened right after u updated or after some time only it happened? btw i just finish updating before posting this..and everything seems fine..

Smooth sailing for me so far. 3G 16Gb on 2.0.2. I have specifically set iTunes to "manually manage music and video" and disable the "automatic sync whenever this iPhone is connected".

The last glitch I had was the "stuck at Apple logo" glitch, which is restored from a previous backup.

Maybe disabling the "automatic sync" with iTunes helps? Also, I only downloaded the updates one at a time, not set it to download ALL updates at the same time and apply them at the same time too. Also, I noticed that the 3G signal at my place is weak, so I turned off 3G and the signal strength went full. That weak signal whenever 3G is turned on was the culprit for my previous "stuck at the Apple logo" glitch.

Hope any of these infos helped. I admit iTunes 7.X have been very buggy form the beginning, I hope the September update of the rumored iTunes 8.0 will fix this.

Don't forget firmware 2.1 too.

You didn't use SwapTunes did you? If you can SSH into your phone check if your iTunes_control folder is still there... it should be in /Library/Media I think.

I also tick manually manage music and video..and also disable automatic sync whenever this iphone is connected...

Well...alot of 3G users based on my source have this problem..and its rumored steve jobs will release a bug fix in sept..

I'm gonna have to restore my iPhone i guess..

no prob with mine.. 2.0.2 too..

@skyther

Anyway..my itunes control folder is still there...

weird, honestly, i havent yet jump into this problems

but next time IF i face the same, i would inform here

TQ anyway

Yeah..sure..

No problemo so far.

i had this problem once... where i lost all my songs and videos, but apps still there. when sync, itunes said my iphone is in restore mode when it looks just perfectly fine.... but that is during my 1.1.4fw...

For me, my newly restored iPhone will only sync once. Sync 500-800 songs at once, that's all enough for me. If new album comes out, then just wait for the next restore or new firmware update. So I guess I'm on the safe side.
