Apple Offers iPod Volume Control Software [UPDATE]
Tuesday, March 28th, 2006 at 2:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Apple announced on Wednesday the availability of an iPod software update the limits the maximum volume of the iPod. The update lets you set your own maximum volume on fifth generation iPods, and the iPod nano. Parents can also set the volume limit on their children's iPods, and then lock the maximum setting with a code. Volume limiting works with any headphone or accessory plugged into the headphone jack, as well as the iPod Radio Remote.
The new iPod software update 1.1.1 is free, and available for download at the Apple Web site.
iPod Observer tested the update on a 4GB iPod nano that was running software version 1.1. The update deleted all of the files and music that were on the iPod, and left it unmountable. Until more information about potential problems with iPod Updater 2006-03-23 is available, IPO recommends that you not apply the update.
