You should be able to find an iPod hard drive someone's salvaged for sale somewhere. I have a 2nd gen 20G iPod that's seen better days but is not ready to part out just yet.

ya there's that forsaken folder with exclamation mark. almost sure its the hard drive that's dead. after browsing through that website and a few others... 150$ USD to repair my iP…

well on eBay they go for 15$ each... but it's AS IS. apparently, after checking out the feedback there were A LOT of positive feedback (or neutral) citing "didn't work but fast shi…

Yes, you can go the other way and salvage what's good out of your iPod and make some money back. Apple also has a 'recycle' program where they'll give you a 10% trade-in discount …

I am in a similar situation, as my 3G 10GB iPod bit the dust yesterday after it fell on a hard floor from off the counter. Folder with exclamation point, and click-click-click sou…

Hi all, I tried using the search function in this forum but apparently it doesn't seem to be working. Anyways, I want my Mac formatted iPod mini to be viewable as a drive in Windo…

Use MacDrive from Mediafour. http://mediafour.com/

It would be slower for your Mac to update songs because OS X has to read a non-native disk format. I've tried it. Copying between two Mac formatted hard drives is faster than copyi…

I know I can backup an entire library but what if I just want to backup only a playlist? I know I can back up playlists to CD-Rs and DVD-Rs but I'm looking for a way to backup to …

Be the first to receive this 3 in 1 accessory for your iPOD. Very convenient to use while listening to your favorite musics off your iPOD while resting on this holder that also fun…

I'm guessing this is spam. And I'm sure I wasn't the first, but DLO makes a similar product which works great. J.

the DLO is a different product-i know about that one- this is the same type but this one fits all ipods, mini, mp3's ipod photo because of the adjustable arms on the side... And it…

I'm thinking, especially with the other thread the original poster posted in this forum, that jhogarty nailed what this is-SPAM. We do not allow spam of any kind, broad-based or f…

My wifes iPod has a Sad Face in the display - anyone know what this means? She is panicking and crying, and I need a quick answer. No time to research while at work. Joe

Joe, Bring it into APPLE. Let them look at it. Try pressing the "Select + Menu Buttons simultaneously for 8-10 seconds" to reboot it. See what happens. If it under a year, they…

It is the silver mini - we bought it off of Ebay, so we dont have a purchase receipt. I guess we send it in for repair. Joe

If it was registered you can do this: Write down the serial number, then go to http://www.apple.com/support Scroll down and in the right side of the page you will see a window to…

I suspect you have already sent this off for repairs, but for the daring, try this: Crack the case. Unplug the battery. Replug the battery. My 2G used to get--occasionally--the "…

Regardless of what the technician is telling you, if the iPod got wet and doesn't work, it's junk.

Was it an Apple technician?
