Post iPod Help
I here when your battery runs out on an iPod (3rd Generation) (20GB) it is dead for good. Some say you can get it replaced, others say you can't. If my battery dies will i be able to have it replaced for free? What if i bought the ipod through ebay and not a place like circuitcity? The ipod is from a reseller and not an individual.
at the moment i do not wish to disclose exact information on the item up.

From what ive read,

Apple charges to replace the battery, which is like 20 bucks cheaper then buying a new ipod. You can get a 3rd party battery as well.

Read up on it and thats verified. $100 for apple replacement. I'd rather try the $30 from iPodResQ or the PDASmart $55 offer. IDK who i should trust most but obviously i'd rather pay less. Are those companies trustworthy as i have to send them the iPod.

iPod Sync
I can't sync my iPod Photo. It doesn't show up on iTunes when connected to my USB 2.0 port. Eventually, my computer crashes and reboots. Any ideas?

My iPod won't sync. It never appears in iTunes when I connect to the USB port and the computer eventually crashes and reboots. It used to work. Any ideas?

Sorry about the duplicate post. I didn't realize I sent it the first time.

It's Window's XP. It used to work just fine but now it won't work at all.

If proper drivers are installed you ipod should show up as an external harddrive or a usb mass storage device. just open up the drive in my computer and copy files to it.
