Cover For 80 Gig Ipod Video

Ok my last video got scratched to all heck, Im looking for the best case/cover solution for my ipod with out taking away for the ipod, anyone have any recommendations?

I forgot to mention that with the iSkin, you can use
the universal dock by removing the adapter. You do
not need to remove the iPod from the iSkin!
Which version did you buy? That have various models. Having one that actually allows you to use the dock without removing it, is what I've been looking for. But I can't tell which one it is looking on their web site. Can you point it out?

What is the best cover for the Ipod 16 in your opinion?

Hi,
I would like to buy a cover for my Ipod Touch 16. I would like something that doesn't interfear with the use of the touchscreen but at the same time protects my Ipod from scratches and damage. I appreciate your comments and advice. :o}

I use a combination of 2 things. I use the DLO leather folio hipcase in addition to the power support anti-glare film set. The leather folio hipcase keeps my iPod touch hidden when the flap is closed when I am on the subway and is very stylish with soft leather. It also protects the screen and the rest of the iPod touch. The power support anti-glare film set is not your a normal screen protecter it protects from scratches, finger prints and also allows better traction of the touch screen and last but not least has an anti-glare function. The power support anti-glare film set is more expensive than other screen protecters but can be reapplied and doesnt leave a sticky residue (static-cling instead.
Here are the links for both:

Video errors for 30g ipod video

Can someone help me? I have a video file i converted to the proper format for my ipod and I was able to transfer it to the ipod, but when I try to play it on the ipod all I get is a black screen and no sound and after about 30 seconds it goes back to the menu.

I think it might need to be converted again...
If you used iTunes's option to "Convert to iPod" it might not have worked properly (iTunes is limited in the types of files it can work with). You might want to try Googling iPod Video Converter, downloading and installing a third party program, running the file through that, and then trying it on the iPod again.
I've used Videora in the past and have had some decent results with it.

60 gig ipod video, unable to view photos

No problem downloading photos from selected folder useing ipod options/photo. However when I select a folder of pictures from the ipod the thumbnails are blank, and when I select a photo and try to view it the ipod freezes, gets noticably warmer,there is a great deal of hard drive noise, and a reset is needed.
I haven't tried any videos yet, but mp3 files play just fine.
Any help would be appreciated.

Think I might of resolved the issue. Used ipod updater to errase and restore settings to my ipod, and used a new folder of photos and a resinc seems to have fixed it. I am going to add more jpgs and see if itunes will convert them for my ipod has well.

Solar chargers for 30G iPod Video

Has anyone had any experience using any of the small solar chargers on the market that state they work with iPods. Most of them state that they are useable with iPods but I think they all are tested with the Nano or Mini only, and I'm wondering if they may be a little substandard when used with the larger iPods. Also if anyone has electronic knowledge, can you tell me how to decipher the electronic specs that are listed for them, and which one may be the best one to get. They all list specs differently, and I don't know which ones are important.
Some of the sites I've been researching them at are:

How can I remove the back cover for my ipod?

I need to remove the cover because my ipod seems to be suffering from a hardrive problem. It used to just cycle through all the songs in a playlist or randomly play 5 seconds and skip to the next song, but now it just makes a whirring noise when I try to turn it on and cannot get past the apple logo.
Sometimes I get the little unhappy ipod logo and the support website but thats it.
Iv tried going into diagnostic mode and attempting to run a few tests. It failed a USB test in this mode so i think that may be one of the problems with it.
Does anyone know of a fool proof way of removing the case so I can dis/reconnect the harddrive?

Before you remove the back cover of your iPod - which will loss the warranty
Read the following
he Sad iPods icon or folder with an exclamation mark are the toughest problems to deal with, and must do a Restore in order to fix it. However, when your iPod is showing this icon, it is probably too late for your computer to recognize the iPod.
1. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
2. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
Still can't see your iPod?
Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or in the Desktop/Finder when you connect it to your PC/Mac. The most likely causes are listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
3. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
4. Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
5. Try another known-good FireWire or USB port on your computer .
6. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
7. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. We've found that in many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
8. Try to do an Erase (Disk Utility) on a Mac computer or a format with a PC (Disk Management tool) but ensure you choose the right Drive (your iPod not your Hard Disk of your computer). You may need to plug and unplug your iPod with the computer for several attempts, and switching around Format and Restore, and hope out of sudden, it will get recognized.
9. Diagnostic mode solution – which I copied from a thread of a post from thinktwice
“Then I cam across this special Diganostics Mode that you can get to by resetting and then while the Apple is showing pressing the Select and backwards keys simultaneously. It bring up and weird Diagnostic utility witha a abunch of tests. Here is what I did
- I tried the 5in1 test and got and error on Firewire.
- I did the HDD R/W and surprisingly it passed.
- I went on to the HDD scan. This supposedly tkaes acouple of minute so I waited. I think 4-5 dots appeared then nothing. The iPod started to get hot. THe disk was spinning away. After a while the battery got very low. THis test chews up the battery. So I escaped out by resetting and went to connect it to a power source.
My USB was dangling out of my computer and I was too lazy to get the Firewire AC adapter thing going so I connected expecting the whole lockup thing with iTunes. Surprise. IT was recognized immediately and has been working like a champ. So go figure.
Details on Diag mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/index.shtml
10.Let me ask you a question, if an iPod with no iPod software with it. When your connect it with a computer, what would happen?
Yeah, the computer will treat it as a fresh external hard disk, which will get force mounted, the computer will ask you to format the iPod. It does not really matter the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted iPod software on the iPod, after that the computer will recognize it.
Once it has been completed, eject your iPod, open the iPod updater and interestingly, you will able to do the Restore this time.
Base on the above, that's why I suggest Windows users who experience trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac machine or vice versa. PC computer will not recognize a Mac formatted iPod, but it will get mounted in an attempt to format your iPod.
But, if none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired. You can arrange for service at the iPod Service Website.
I have just read an interesting solution about the Sad iPod, it does make sense but the warranty will be waived once you open the iPod, I would not do it myself as I am not good on doing this

Carry Case for 80G iPod Video

I've looked everywhere for a carry case for my iPod 80g video but can't find anything to suit. I mostly use it in the car, shut away in the glove box, and wanted something that allows me to plug in the stereo lead with the iPod still in case. I was hoping to get something with room to store the headphones and a extra lead etc.
Any suggestions?

Van hello. You should never keep your iPod in your glove compartment as one day you'll find that it will stop working because of excess heat, cold or humidity. Try to take it with you (if possible). There is a good carrying case at the following link: http://www.thegadgetlocker.com/productinfo.php/cPath/218_170_176/productsid/2856

Virus Tranfer w/30 gig ipod Video

I have read previous posts and i just want some clarity.
I have a 30 gig ipod vid and i was wondering if i put music pics or vids on it from an infected computer can i transfer them to another computer. I read it is possible if you are transfering stuff to the second computer as if the ipod were a removable disk, but what if i only use the 2nd computer to load my ipod (tranfer only to the ipod) via itunes? Also if i used other software to transfer my music, vids, or pics, to the second computer could i tranfer a virus then? I ask cuz at an internet cafe i burned a cd with vids n music. I scanned them before doing so and upon inserting it to a friends computer before transfering the vids n stuff i scanned it and viruses appeared. I knew the cafe had some virus that always inserted an exe into the folders i stored my files in, so i was careful, and thankfully so! If it is possible, then before doing any transferring to or from my friends computer can i safely attach my ipod via usb to my friends computer and scan it incase, without putting my friends computer at risk? Question is long and drawn out, but i dont wanna ask more questions, you know? Thanks a mill in advance.

i would imagine that if the virus was attached to music/vid/pic, then yes, there is a very good possibility that you could transfer the virus to the computer. your best bet would be just saving it to disc(cd/HDD/flash), virus scan/clean and then uploading to ipod. good luck!
