I think I know what's happening. I have been synchronizing a few albums at a time, slowly filling my 16GB iPhone. At some stage, the total amount of music becomes larger than the total amount of free space. When the synchronizing failed in my case, I had something like 7.2GB of music with 7.0GB free space. It is as if Rhythmbox wants to be sure it can copy all music, rather than figuring out what's new and ensuring there is enough space on the device for the new music.
I.e. everything was fine when I had 7.0GB of music and 7.2GB of free space. I bet that if I delete all music from my iPhone and then synchronize my entire music collection it will work without any problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771636 Title: Rhythmbox reports "There is not enough space on the device to transfer the selected music, playlists and podcasts" when amount of free space lower than total music collection, opposed to size of changes to be pushed to mobile device. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
