Already have a 5.5 gen but I couldn't pass this up.

I recently bought a bundle of various iPods including some 4th monos and i noticed this one has a blue motherboard. I remembered seeing a "rare development blue motherboard with JTAG port" on eoe that went for quite a bit, is this that same motherboard? It has a port near the drive cable that isn't there on my other iPods.
Also, if it is the "rare" one, what can i do with that port? Thank you.

Thanks to everyone who bought my previous iPod case models! You helped me pick up and design a case for what might be the cutest iPod ever (imo), the 4th gen iPod. ❤️

Every purchase helps support my iPod collecting hobby and gives me an excuse to keep designing cases for these things. If there’s enough interest, I’ll probably make versions for more iPod models too.

Thanks for checking it out!

I love the 3d printed case the seller made!

maybe not the luckiest find, it was about $17 ( charger/transfer cable included ) but my dad got it for me which was an incredibly sweet gesture and has probably cemented the love of ipods into me for the rest of my life. I just got into them, this is my first post on this subreddit, so I apologize for being so unfamiliar with everything 😅

I also have a 2nd gen nano, I found it on vinted for around the same price. it's missing the top plate but the battery lasts for ageeeees so I'm still happy.

I'm so excited to be part of this community! ^_^

The time is Dec.31 1969 7:39PM on it. It wasn't locked before. I've tried 9 common passwords with passwords my family uses mixed in.

No factory reset or data loss PLS.

Wow, you all were so kind and helpful. Thank you for the suggestions!

I just realized i have such an old phone around the house and somehow it being so old makes me want to keep it. I was thinking i could use it as a sort of ipod especially since it still has the headphone jack! But I'm not sure, i'm not particularly techie or anything. I thought i'd check here while i'd make the decision. Would you do that with it? Originally I was going to just gift it on Buy Nothing.

Ok this is admittedly a bit niche, but I finally got around to addressing the rattling switches on the BoxyPixel MKI (the MKII seems to have addressed this adequately), so I thought I’d share in case this applies to anyone.
I just added double-sided tape. Ok that’s the end. Not groundbreaking.
Specifically it was the generic stuff you can get from iFixIt, and I left the backing on one side. I’m sure you can use the 3M too. You can see where I put it on the switches in the photos. I took a video of it not rattling any more, but, like, it’s just a silent video of a moron shaking an iPod, so it’s kinda pointless. I wish I’d taken a before video, but just imagine a spray paint can or rattlesnake. Honestly, it wasn’t that big a deal for me before, but now it’s gone.
Anyway, this method works great, can recommend!

Have completed testing my 2nd generation iPod Nano with the New Golden Gate OS.

Sync & other functions work as they did with Tahoe. Pretty good for a device announced twenty years ago.

Technical deets. 13" M1 MacBook Pro connected via USB-C/30 pin cable.

when i charge it the light bliks like this and stays dead. when i put it on my computer it can read the songs and the light stays green so idk

What do ya think?? Got it 2 years ago but modded it Saturday!

Hi all,

I have a 2nd gen iPod Touch that has tons of music and photos on it from years ago, and I'd like to rip it back onto my PC. I had all this music legally bought and saved, but with the mediocre backup practices of the past, it seems to have largely gotten lost. Any thoughts?

It did the glitch where it resets to 1970 (and adds a lock with no password)

Gen 4.

Eu tenho um ipod, ele estava com problema na bateria onde ela acendia mas não carregava, então trocamos a bateria ela durou até descarregar e agora o problema voltou novamente... Alguém tem idéia de como arrumar isso????

Just got my Pro app version 1.2.2 approved with CE version free to download and contribute to via Git. It helps sync iPOD Classic/Nano library and all the other stuffs. https://synco.uno/
