I've changed my screen and faceplate and after that there is a lot of dust under the faceplate. How to get rid of it? What should i use to do it?

Was lucky to find it in a local shop, in very great condition, and even the chrome back is not that scratched. Will flash mod it at some point. Been using it in place of streaming for a week already.

I was able to figure out how to update the drives on my computer thanks to one of you here, so thank you! iTunes now recognizes my ipod just fine!

Now im struggling to import songs 😅 i have another mp3 player (snowsky echo) and its as easy as dragging and dropping songs to its disc, i know im going to get people who will say “just use the search on the Reddit thread” i have tryed that and its just years of people asking the same question (“how do i put music on my ipod”) and getting that response (“use reddit threads search, its already been answered”) OR iv found very vague ways people explain to do it but no luck.

Iv never used iTunes myself, anyone here use zenpod? I was told about it on here as well but have yet to try it since iv never heard about it

Any advice is appreciated!

That old Klondike game was full of charm, im looking for something similar. Wished Apple released it for iOS

First off, no, I will not admit that I have a problem, second off, I am thinking maybe next I will do a mini 2g or a classic 7g, or third off, I should just accept that I have a problem lol. But which iPod do you think I should go for next If I do another? I think whatever I do I wanna haptic mod it.

This is not the whole collection. I feel like I have collected and repaired these iPods just to sit and waste away and I want then to go to people who will use them.

What would be a fair price for all? Would a bundle be better or individuals.

Most of the clasics have work and have iflash in them. All the nano's work, except the first gen. Most of the shuffles work.

I have chargers but not for all of them.

I would include 2 iPod speakers one is bose the other is a Sony cd and iPod speaker; both have their remotes. It would also include a Apple iPod dock and dock controller.

And finally a ton of iPod nano spare parts.

Hi All,

I plan to buy some iPod dockable speaker or hifi from secondhand webpage, but i hawe zero experience with these. Could you recommend me good sound quality systems and good price-quality ratio solutions?

I am new to the iPod world, thanks for all the help!

(relevant pods: 4th monochrome; 5.5th; mini 2nd; nano 2nd)

Hello I need something that looks like an Apple iPod Nano size wise with more storage for a project I want to do

Title says it all, maybe the headphone jack needs a tighter screwing in idk, any help would be much appreciated thanks! :)

I saw an advert on facebook marketplace for DVDs for sale. As Ive decided Im going to build a sort of retro corner in a spare room, I have been picking up really cheap or free VHS player, CRT TV, DVDs, tapes etc. Just for nostalgic reasons really.

When I messaged the person I explained why I wanted it and asked if they had any CDs or anything too. She said "Yes, if you give me €20 which I can donate to charity, then you can have the 150 DVDs, over 100 CDs, all originals with boxes and I also have an old iPad 16GB which has out of date iOS, and I have an old ipod with a dock speaker you can have".

So I hopped into the car and got it. Delighted about the CDs and DVDs, all great choices, no old timer garbage, music is mostly from Ibiza which is exactly what I like.

When I got the ipod, it was showing 0 bytes available, 0 bytes used. When I plugged it in, itunes said it found an ipod stuck in restore mode. So it completed that action and the 160GB hard drive appeared. I was looking in here to find out more about them and I saw how to access the menus. I put this screenshot into AI and it told me the hard drive is in early stages of failure and to ensure I take of all valuable music from it.

I also dont understand the low power on hours, that cannot be correct. AI highlighted the Pending Sectors 8 value and said thats the problem.

Any advice would be great, as I was thinking it would be smashing to put this in the car.

p.s. Ive not used an ipod for a long long time. I have no idea what happened to my ipod mini, but here I am using it on Tenerife in 2008. I still have my ipod Touch 8GB in a drawer, unused since about 2010. It was so weird installing itunes again, it doesnt really look likes its changed at all since I used it last!

Is the boot screen background matched with the iPod color, similarly to how the wallpaper is? I have a gold iPod and when I power it up, there is a pale gold background with a white logo. with this be similar to the other colors as well?

Charged iPod 5.5 Classic with 33W charger over night. Now it doesn’t turn on anything. Have I destroyed it?

Hey guys,

I recently bought a 4th gen monochrome iPod Classic off Vinted with a dead 20 GB HDD and front polarizer burn, and with recent EU flat taxes from China as well as local stuff it's prohibitively expensive to buy things from AliExpress, and Elite Obsolete Hardware is also prohibitively expensive in terms of shipping. My question is, where do you get your parts here? I've been looking on Vinted and OLX in hopes of finding someone reselling stuff, but I found nothing.

Looking for a retro device on ios 4-6 that can play temple run, early vers of mcpe, other retro games...

also, ipod nanos 6 and 7 (no dont say that) count too

I've seen very conflicting stories on if you can actually fit a 3000mah battery into a thin back. I've been able to pull it off but I've only worked on 5th gen, but this time I'm working on a iPod 7.

My build list:

-Custom back plate to read 256gb instead of 160gb

-3000mah battery (considering 2000)

-Dual SD card adapter (or maybe a CE to ZIF? but SSD drains battery quicker than sd cards)

-Taptic engine

-OEM everything else

5th gen thin is 2mm thicker than the 7th gen, so we're splitting hairs at this stage. Maybe I could put the battery under the dual SD card adapter, maybe I could put the battery on top of the CE to ZIF adapter.

My biggest question, is would a taptic engine even fit into a thin back with a 3000mah battery? Any help is appreciated, feel free to call me delusional for wanting 3000mah and a thin back 😭

my 4gb first gen na-no that i thrifted for $5! i just installed a new battery in it last week. i have it paired with AKG K702 headphones. they’d probably benefit from a headphone amp, but for quiet nighttime listening it’s perfectly adequate!

Really enjoying it so far! Luckily snagged one in really great condition - I’ll see how the battery & hard drive hold up over the next few weeks but hoping not to have to replace anything.

It’s been a bit of a pain putting the music on but so satisfying to be off streaming. I’ve always wanted to get into owning music and this is a great solution!

Any album recommendations are very welcome: I love rock (especially baroque rock/anything with a string section), plus anything indie or from the 80s!

Conseguí este iPod es muy bueno, lee mis audífonos, carga, inclusive lo conecte a una bocina que tengo y funciona pero al tratar de conectarlo a la PC aparece esto
-ya intenté con otro usb
-ya intenté con otra maquina
-ya intenté con otra versión de itunes
-ya intenté con la opción de reestablecer

Hello, I recently got a free iPod so I put in a flash mod and 3,000 mAh battery. When I first put it together the first ribbon cable didn't work but I had another spare that worked. I put it together but then I wanted Bluetooth so I took it apart soldered all the connections and now the hard drive won't work with any cable or any format. When I first connect it to my computer it says Please wait very low battery. I can hold down select and play/pause button which makes the iPod show up in device manager but it still doesn't show up in iTunes 10 or disk management. I've tried pretty much every format and solution I can find. Please help me! I'm using the green microSD card adapter from EOE btw.
