if im not mistaken, a 60Gb hd for my 4th gen ipod can be had for $200 or less ( with some shopping around ) the 40GB hd from the 4th gen will not work in the 2nd gen though. i do…

The predominant factor is the motherboard and what the motherboard supports. There are some 60GB drives that have the slim factor.

Jason Parry was right. The 8GB Seagate Drive does work and currently is in two of our Mini recreation projects. No problem at all. It doesn't matter which generation motherboard yo…

No, you can't put a 2.5" drive (from your link) in a 1.8" enclosure (your iPod). 1.8" drives are expensive; about $5/GB. Froogle it.

It is a 1.8 inch drive.... "Hitachi 1.8 inch hard disk drive technology" HEre is the info for the drive from the companies site... http://www.cablestogo.com/product.as...=211&am…

So my first iPod nano has a faulty button and I put it in for repairs. It was under warranty and after some time I get a new iPod nano. At least it looked that way, all in plastics…

So I went back with the pod today and they hooked it up to an iMac at the shop and lo and behold it starts! Imagine my surprise. It was stone dead when I had tested it at home only…

Glad you got a new nano and it is working fine. Sometimes something similar happens to me with an iPod Video, I need to reformat it to get it working again, I have no Apple dealer …

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone has created multiple partitions so that both Windows and OS X can access a common folder. Say 1: 32gb partition for a common folder, 1 for OSX…

I think bootcamp only allows you to make the two partitions. You can, however, format your windows drive as FAT32, and then you can both read and write to it from OS X. I find that…

Yah, boot camp only does 1 for you hence doing the partitions before using bootcamp. The purpose of having the extra partition would be so that one would not have to reboot into t…

If you get this to work, please post back. That's the partition scheme I'd like to have, too.

While I don't know of a built-in method to get this to work, a third party partition manager such as PartitionMagic should do the trick. Install it under Windows and use it to sub…

After a little analysis of my Shuffle's poor shuffling, I figured out that it's not playing songs that were purchased from iTMS. To check, I put only iTMS purchased songs on it, a…

Hello, I had the same problem with some of the iTunes music I purchased. I had to burn to CD and then import back in to iTunes. Another thread here too http://forums.m…

I'm sorry, but this just blows. My Shuffle still won't play the purchased music and there doesn't seem to be an answer. I just got a new 30GB since my 10GB had a dead battery. T…

If both iPods fail to play the music, the it seems fairly clear that there's something odd about your iTunes installation. I don't suppose you have another computer that you can us…

Um the iPod shuffle does not support Apple Lossless encoding. Sez Playlist mag : "Unlike with other iPods, the iPod shuffle can’t play AIFF or Apple Lossless files—files that consu…

What the heck does that have to do with anything, imitchellg5?

iTMS content is far from lossless. It's encoded in 128kbps AAC format.

Why do they call it Apple Lossless? All of my iTMS songs are encoded in Lossless.
