Can I get music off a corrupted/broken ipod nano at the apple store?

My Ipod nano had a cracked screen soon after I first got it and the screen was replaced.
My second Ipod nano screen began lifting up in the corner awhile ago, I thought nothing of it until it snagged on a persons clothing and tore the wire ribbon, taking the screen clean off.
As I ran out of space on my old computer, I had to delete all of my music, the ipod was the only way that I stored it, I tried to connect the broken ipod to my new computer to get my music back but it now claims to be corrupted.
If I take it to a store, will they be able to get my music off and onto a pen drive for me? how much will this cost?
The ipod has no warranty due to being a replacement for a fire hazard first generation nano.

No, if you are getting a message that the iPod is corrupted there is no way to retrieve your music.

  • Can I get music off of a broken iPod Video, 30GB?

    This isn't detrimental, I have an iPhone as well as an iPod touch and have all the music I need. But I found my broken iPod video today, and it hasn't worked for a few years. I dropped it about three and a half years ago, cracked the screen, and ever since it's been fudged up. If I plug it in, it'll try and start up, then shut itself down, so it's *trying* to work.
    I'm simply curious to see what music was on there, so it's not a big deal if it's not possible. I know I had over three thousand songs on there, and they're all bound to be terrible, but it's fun and also horrifying to look back on my previous taste in music.
    If anybody has any solutions, or ideas, let me know, but like I said, not in a panic, not taking it to be repaired or anything.
    I'm not sure if it's called the iPod classic, by the way, but this is the iPod I'm talking about. http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/ipod-2-091206.jpg
    I don't think the iPod's coming up on my computer. I just plugged it in, and this is my old crappy computer since my PC decided to crap out, but there's no sign of it being recognized so I'm assuming it's probably a lost cause, but oh well.

    The only suggestion I have is to try and force the iPod into Disk Mode.

  • If I buy a Blue iPod Touch 5g at BestBuy, can I switch it with a Space Grey iPod Touch at the Apple Store since BestBuy doesn't carry the space grey iPod Touch?

    I just wanted to know if I can switch my iPod Touch at the Apple Store, I still don't know if BestBuy carries the Space Grey iPod Touch yet.

    No, you have had to purchase it directly from Apple

    If the book is not in the Apple store, you will have to get it from another one, such as Amazon, Nook, Kobo, Google, Sony.  Each of them has apps to read the books  you get from them.

  • Can i change my iPad 3 for new iPad retina in the apple store?

    Can i change my iPad 3 to new iPad retina in the apple store by paying few money?

    I have a similar issue...my uncle asked what I wanted as a present and I said a new ipad came out with support for Australian 4G networks and to get that...it's the 'new' ipad. Of course he went into the store and asked for the latest 'new' ipad on 28/10 and they sold him an ipad3 which retailed for the same price as an ipad4.
    So when I got it I was advised by the telco that my version was not compatible. I called applecare to ask them if I could swap it being 1 week out from purchase and of course they said go back to the store it was purchased from. No surprises the store doesn't want anything to do with it, they just want to get rid of their old stock.
    Now I am stuck with an ipad which I did not want (I specifically did not want the ipad3 because it did not support our local networks' 4G) and Apple have washed their hands of it.
    This is terrible policy...at first I was upset Apple or the reseller won't exchange it but really I don't blame the reseller now...my grief is in the stupid Apple naming policy..."oh it's the new ipad with retina display now" .... hang on a second the ipad3 was also the 'new' ipad with retina display (maybe not by name) and was never referred to as the ipad 3rd gen...now they're saying oh it's now the ipad3 you want the ipad with retina display...guess what your stupid naming convention means half the noobs out there don't know what they're buying.
    The identical naming convention has caused my uncle to purchase an obsolete product for top dollar...I have an iphone 3g, 4, 4s, touch, etc. well I think it's safe to say android is the future. I'm already finding streaming media is made impossible by Apple's DRM and policies...something my $100 andoid tablet can do easy.

  • Old laptop died, can't get music off iPod

    So I tried to follow the instructions for backing up my iPod, but I couldn't get it to work.
    My old laptop died, but my iPod is fine. I want to transfer my songs from my iPod to the new laptop. My purchased music moved over just fine, but I can't get my CDs (which were ripped as mp3s) over to the new laptop. I'm using Windows, and when I mount the iPod as a hard drive, I only see the following folders:
    Calendars
    Contacts
    Notes
    iPod_Control (hidden)
    Under iPod_Control, I have Accessories, Artwork, Device, iTunes, and Music subfolders.... the Music subfolder doesn't have any of the file names... any idea on how to quickly fix this? Thanks!

  • How can I get music off the ipod and into my library?

    I can't get the music off my ipod into my library... arg why won't it let me?

    You can't sync or drag your non iTMS music back directly from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. As iTunes 7 is just out some of these may not work with it yet though I haven't experienced any problems with the Mac software I use.

  • Can I bring my broken iPhone 5c to the Apple store to get a new one?

    The screen of my iPhone 5c is seperaring from the back of the phone. Can I bring it back to the Apple Store to get a new one for free

    If it's under warranty and they determine it's a defect and not caused by abuse, yes. If it's out of warranty or was physically damaged, then no. You'll need to pay for an out of warranty replacement.

    Make sure your computer meets the iPod shuffles requirements for Mac.

    Make sure you are using the cable for the USB port on your Mac that came with the shuffle.

  • I have an ipod with a horribly cracked screen and the LCD screen is white with gray patches, i don't have any money to get it replaced and i can't tell my mom because she will freak out will the apple store replace mine for free?

    Can anyone help me know so i can go to the apple store and see if they can replace it for free

    I'm afraid that a free replacement is very unlikely, the warranty does not cover accidental damage and a cracked screen seems to be just that.

  • New buyer question: can I sync my new iPod Touch in the Apple Store?

    I'm heading to Florida in 5 days (I live in the UK), where I'll be buying my iPod Touch (well, I'll hang off as long as possible to try and catch a price-drop or upgrade after 11 July).
    However, it's looking unlikely that I'll have my laptop with me, so I won't be able to sync up to my iTunes library until I get back home to the UK.
    Do you think the staff in the Apple Store would sync and register it for me, so that I can at least use the wi-fi etc. until I get home? I don't want any music or videos on it until I get home, so I don't need anything like that.

    You could ask.
    They may let you plug it to register it so you can use it.
    I doubt they would let you sync it since that would put the music from the computer you are connecting it to.

  • I keep getting a message that my ipad2 cannot connect to the apple store.

    I get onto the apple Store site and can see everything, but when I try to get a new app or update an existing app, I can't get a download, and get an error message instead. Anybody know why?

    Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.

  • HT5085 Can't find purchased tv programs to download latest episodes on the apple store

    I purchased "Breaking Bad deluxe version seasons 1 through 5" last year for £50 and now I can't find the episodes I have already purchased. Since purchasing, I have been downloading them off the apple store in batches of 3 rather than downloading all 5 seasons in one go, which would take ages, and take up unnecessary space. What can I do to find these?
    Up until last week, I have been downloading them on my MAC, by searching on the apple store to find what the compilation "Breaking Bad Deluxe version seasons 1 through 5" and then download 3 episodes at a time. It said purcahsed next to each episode, so I just assumed this was the easiest thing to do.
    I now cant find this compilation on the apple store, so I dont know what to do. I shouldnt have to pay again to download the seasons individually, which appears to be the ony option.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks
    Sam
