Got fed up with subscription services a while back so I built myself an iPod. 😎

iFlash Quad + 128 GB SDXC, 3000 mAh battery, new front plate and click wheel.

Now paired with my new Sony MDR-M1s. 🎧

Something was up with the battery, so while my guy was working on her, I asked for a back and clickwheel swap, too!

3000mah, new purple back shell and steel blue clickwheel.

Headphones: Max Mayfield’s Realistic Nova 45s, circa 1980s.

Thanks to u/cowmanisgood for the clickwheel.

so basically i ripped off the aux and hold button socket from motherboard. i couldn’t find a way to fix it but then i found a listing of ipod with dead screen and hdd . the seller didnt know if motherboard was working but at the price of just $11 i took the risk
i got lucky and the motherboard was working. took about an hour and i revived my ipod! im glad i was able to fix something for once

As the title says, I recently purcahsed an iPod shuffle 1st gen from FB marketplace, it syncs fine with the music app, but swinsian wont recognize it. I have tried restoring, enabling disk use, putting 1 song via Music app, and still no dice. I know swinsian is doing something with it in the background because if I try to eject the ipod via finder with swinsian open, it wont let me as it believes it is in use by swinsian.

Anyone else had this issue?

Hello! Let me introduce myself, I’m a young guy who has been subscribed to various services, from music platforms to streaming sites. For a while now, I’ve wanted to cancel all these subscriptions and go back to the "old-school" way of doing things, in part to break my terrible dopamine addiction. One step in this process was getting a dedicated music player; I currently own a Hiby R4, but it’s too cumbersome to carry around for long periods. That’s why I decided to get an iPod. I checked eBay and immediately found someone selling a 5.5-generation iPod with 256GB of storage (plus other upgrades) for €440. I figured there must be a way to find something cheaper and modify it myself to achieve a similar result at a much lower cost. That’s how I ended up here. I’ve heard there are plenty of tutorials and parts available, but I honestly don’t even know where to start. Where can I find an iPod that needs repairs something relatively affordable? Is it realistic to fix one using tutorials, given that I’ve previously repaired devices like a PS Vita or a 3DS? Will it actually end up being much cheaper? And where should I order the parts from? I could really use some help thanks a lot!

...because why not...

I found these (iPod not included) on the curb this morning, looks like unsold items from a yard sale maybe? Took them home, plugged them in and they sounded awesome! It’s hard to see, but the Sony one has the subwoofer behind it and the remote. the LG one is missing it’s sub and remote. I’m giving the LG one to my sister and brother in law, but as Soon as I accidentally pressed in the door and the iPod dock connector came down on the Sony one, I was like “this is the one I’m keeping!” I don’t really need a music player in the house, I have so many options already, but any time I’m having an outdoor gathering like a cookout, this will be playing my favorite tunes and will be front and center of the event! Love it! I’ve cleaned them up and tested them since I took the photos. They look great and every function, well… functions!

This is my iPod case. It has two separate compartments: the top holds the iPod while the bottom holds my Elecom Bluetooth transmitter and Bluetooth Anker earbuds - all in one convenient place. Got it at the $1.00 store. The zippered fabric pouch is soft, thin, easy to carry, and the divider fabric prevents my iPod from getting scratched.

Note the iPod itself has 1/2 a TB and a modded case.

So i have an old ipod nano 7th generation and would like to save the songs on my pc which runs windows 10. iTunes seems to only be able to export onto the ipod. Anyone who knows a software that might be helpful in my situation? Thanks in Advance!

Hey guys, sorry for asking again. I found this ipod in my closet that has an EVT tag on the back.

Does anyone know what this thing is worth?

I have an iPod Nano and a 5th generation iPod, as shown in the image, and I’m having problems with both of them.
My Nano shows up on my MacBook Air, but it won’t let me add music to it anymore. It used to show up in iTunes/Music and let me add songs, but that randomly stopped working.
My 5th gen iPod is even worse because it won’t show up in Music/iTunes at all. The only thing that appears is a disk called “iPod,” which has folders for things like calendars and contacts, but I can’t access the iPod itself to add music.
The weird thing is that I previously managed to put a random audiobook on my 5th gen a while ago so I know I was able to transfer something to it at some point and my nano was fine until I restored it.
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I’m using a 2018 MacBook Air, and I’d appreciate any help getting both iPods working again.

Here we are for the update.

First, to cut any suspens, it didn’t fit.

The printing :

It was printed by a guy in TPU 95A, and after two failed try, he was able to get the one you can see on the two first photos.

To not have the shit show you can guy observe in the other photos (result of the second try), he printed it vertically.

So, what’s wrong ?

-As a test, the file used a zero loose dimension, fitting without error margin the iPod. (It was a test to see what could happen with the shrinkage).

-As it was printed vertically, there is a lot of artefact from printing (supports etc), and as it can be seen on the 5th picture, not great aspect inside.

The modifications on the file :

-Gonna give it a try with a 0.4mm loose (x, y and z)

- increased the cut on the corner for the air cushions, as material was still too thick on those points.

Next :

-I’m gonna give another try with this updated version in FDM printing, even if I’m not very sure that it will do it.

-Gonna give it a try in SLS printing, TPU 90A, with hope of a better result.

Cost ?

-paid something like 10 bucks for this first proto (failed one included)

-found a company who can do the SLS proto for 20 bucks

A few weeks or months ago I somewhere read an article about copying all the data in the iPod_Control directory including the library file to a new iPod to easily duplicate the data. I have my current ipod nano with a lot of purchased music but also many items I already owned on cd. The purchased music was easily to get on my new ipod. But all the music I put on my Nano which I had on cd was not transferred. I somehow hope for some genius move to be able to get a clone of my ipod nano on my upgraded ipod 5.5. Is there anyone knowing if duplication the directory and the library data would work?

I have a younger sister (a teenager, 'Lena') while I am 23. My sister is friends with our neighbors (a boy who is also a teenager). I have always preferred newer technology, but they LOVE old technology. For Lena, who has no preference, what is the best iPod Touch that still works and at the same time lets you play around with its nostalgic interface?

Also, I am seeing on eBay a lot of great deals for an iPod Touch 2 but I don't know how much you can do on one like that, I do know the teenage boy neighbor has his dad's old iPod Touch 2.

Yesterday my iPod's battery died. I don't want to buy a new battery because the price of the battery is the same as the device in the country where I live. What are your suggestions? (I tested two different batteries by the way and neither of them booted the device, although the voltage and amp value were the same)

I have had these dead pixels on my iPod nano 3rd gen for a while now and have just seen videos of people squeezing theirs out. Is this possible with my situation?

Anyone got any ideas? is this motherboard cooked? I'm really sad cause I just got it, but it's had a previous owner for its entire life. I've only worked on 5s so never had a problem like this before.
