How about a nano, can you hook it up with the A/C adapter and play it while connected? I know the full iPod works.

Well, there are shuffle battery packs that attach to the USB port for extending play time, why won't the power adapter do the same thing?

My 20Gig 2nd generation iPod hard drive died. Not to mention the batt life was terrible. Yes, I forgot to fill out the claim form and it is out of warrantee. Will Apple replac…

Time to buy a new one. Apple will not replace it or replace the components for free. And the cost isn't worth it. Your 2nd Gen had a great run. Years of joy. Time to put it to re…

Just for future reference- Apple has a battery replacement program for ~$80. what is so great about the program, as opposed to doing it yourself for less money, is that Apple sen…

Yeah, the 2G is a great iPod. Great battery life. Unfortunately, I've been spoiled by the smaller lighter flash based ipods so I just want a larger capacity nano, no more hard dr…

I can't get it say it's okay to disconnect. Ejecting in iTunes comes back with a message that files on it are in use by another app. Ejecting from Windows Explorer gives the same…

I constantly get this message every time i try to open up the firewall settings, yet I have no other firewall software on my computer. I used to use flying buttress, but i have de…

Do you run Virtual PC? If so, it taps into the firewall to protect itself and prevent your Windows installation from being hacked. Another possiblity is PGP Desktop. It also modifi…
