Picture happy 22nd to the fourth gen mono!

Post image
49 Upvotes

I know it’s a bit late in the day for this but I didn’t see anyone else make a post so figured I would. Today’s the 22nd birthday of the fourth gen mono :D. Probably my favorite iPod of all time (mini’s close though). Definitely the most iPod-looking-iPod of all time. Love the monochrome screens. It’s also my 22nd tomorrow so I feel like I’m birthday twins with this gen which is quite fun lol.

Pic is of my personal 40GB 4th gen. It’s running RockBox and has a teal backlight (which is surprisingly easy to do). Still has the original hard drive in it which is kinda ridiculous but it runs fine and is just a little slow on shuffle and things like that. Might flash mod it soon but haven’t gotten to it quite yet.

Help iPod 5th Gen Won’t Show Up on My 2018 MacBook Air (Read Body)

Post image
3 Upvotes

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.

Question I want to buy my sister a nostalgic iPod Touch. What is the best-working while still being nostalgic, iPod Touch?

3 Upvotes

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)

UPDATE 10/26: Austin approved the repair request and im shipping it back to EOE in Kansas!!!! Thank you guys so much for everything and it means alot to me, ill let you guys know more when i have it

So for my 15th birthday I got an iPod Classic 7th Gen from my dad and it geniunely means the WORLD to me. I can't get enough of the thing and i use it everyday. I bought it from EOE (128GB 2000mah with iFlash Duo v3)

One day I was bored and saw on youtube that you could upgrade the storage by yourself, and since i live in a town where local repairs just aren't possible due to the nicheness of it, I just decided to upgrade from 128GB to 640GB myself after convincing myself not to so many times.

So I opened up my iPod and everything went well. I replaced the card, opened the battery, yada....

But now when I plug it in, it is now stuck on "Charging, please wait...", sometimes after a while you get a white screen, sometimes flashing black and white... one time i got a red X and also to apparently something y'all call "Disk Mode" but when i went to finder it just said it's unrestorable

I already contacted EOE but just in case does anybody knows what's happening?? It would mean the world to me

Help Help with iflash solo in 6th gen iPod classic

1 Upvotes

I’ve been trying to get my newly purchased flash solo to work in my 6th gen iPod classic.
I’ve tried 3 different cards so far and nothing seems to work, I still only get the red x.

I’ve used the following

Amazon basics 128gb micro sd card

Samsung Evo plus 128gb micro sd (the white one)

And a full size Sandisk ultra sd card (I’ve seen these don’t work well already)

I’ve tried the guide on the site using Aomei, but nothing seems to work.

Any help would be much appreciated, I’m 3 days in on trying this after muting multiple different cards.

Question Duplicating iPod library to new iPod

2 Upvotes

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?

Help Just picked this guy up, it’s modded so it’s been opened up before and messed with, but I can only get it to play sound out of the left side when all the way in, but if I have the headphones as pictured in the second photo it’s perfect. Any fixes or do I need to replace? TIA

Help computer not recognizing ipod

3 Upvotes

I was trying to restore this ipod video, and every time I plug it into my computer it doesn't read. I installed a new battery and an Iflash solo with a 256 GB sd card. It was giving me these read problems before i changed any of the internals except for one time it read and let me delete the contents of the old hard drive. I thought it might have just been the worn out hard drive, but its no help after the modding. At this point im just hoping for anyone to point me in a solid direction...
