iTunes 8.2.1 Breaks Palm PRE Sync

itunes-palm-pre

I don’t know if I should feel sorry for Palm PRE users or just shove a ‘serves you right’ sandwich in their face.  Why?  Apple issued an update to iTunes today, 8.2.1, that essentially disables syncing with non-Apple devices, such as the good old PRE.  I mean really, did you think Apple wouldn’t take action especially after the whole pinch to zoom and expand fiasco? Then again, is that function truly proprietary?

For those of you who are Palm PRE users and reading this post with your bottom lip firmly planted underneath your front teeth from frustration, the only solace I can offers is that you hold off on upgrading your version of iTunes until a more reasonable and rational resolve is had.

    Straight from apples website it doesn’t contain the words palm or pre in the sentence.

    “iTunes is a free application for Mac and PC. It plays all your digital music and video. It syncs content to your iPod, iPhone, and Apple TV. And it’s a store that lets you add to your collection 24/7.”
