I haven't looked in a while, does iSkin make a 60gb model? www.iskin.com are my personal favorite cases, except for the fact that you can't use them with a dock and they're a pain…

I use the Incase neoprene sleeve on my 40 GB Photo. It's a nice, snug fit. It does a good job of protecting my iPod and the belt clip is solid. I highly recommend it.

I'll just bring this one back to life. I'm trying to get a clear neoprene type case or even clear hard plastic for my 60GB photo and it isn't at all clear what will work with it. …

I had an iSkin for the first 6 months of my iPod. Found that I didn't like the extra bulk that it added. I've since replaced it with a trimmed PDA screen protector over the displ…

I don't agree that the cases are a scam. I carried around my Tungsten T for 18 months or so in a hard case in my bag and the case looked seriously stressed with genuine dents and …

If you're looking for carrying cases, I think you can expand your search from cases designed specifically for the iPod to those designed for mp3 players in general. Almost any iPo…

I changed head phones from the start. I never would have thought of other mp3 carriers but that's a good idea. here's some responses to emails I sent: ---------------- re incase…

Yes. If you are using the pod with a mac already, it is formatted HFS+. DELL doesn't understand HFS+ - if you install on the DELL it will reformat the pod as FAT, which both the D…

Rebuild the ipod's desktop! Seriously - go into System Preferences, choose the 'Classic' tab. Choose the 'Advanced' tab, and then click the 'Rebuild Desktop' button. a list of mo…

I tried rebuilding it however it didn't change it.

Try again - it may (for reasons that I don't understand) take three or four tries.

Funnily enough- the exact reverse happened with me. I have my iPod formatted under FAT32 because I use it every now and then as a portable HD. With most of the comps I encounter …

Same here with the latest iPod update. My Shuffle previously had a generic icon, except for the very first time I plugged it in. Now, after updating it, I get a more accurate Shu…

I too, got the generic disk icon for my iPod following the latest security update. It's simple to get it back, though. In Panther's terminal, execute the following command to rebui…

Yup, it grates, but - hey - it works!

Maybe Nudge could help you get the icon back. It's helped me a couple of times before with similar icon problems.

How disappointing! My old 1st Gen Green Mini had a green icon, which was cool, but the new 2nd Gen Blue Mini has a Silver icon! c'mon Apple!

I tried all the different rebuilding suggestions, both Classic and that thing for the terminal. Nothing was working, however I tried restoring my iPod with the previous update (200…

I know this is a totally lame question, but seeing as I Just got my first iPod (40GB photo) I'm not sure about pasting a custom icon on a mounted 'Pod. Can you do this or does it s…
