Death of an iPod

I have a four-hour, boring-as-hell drive to Cleveland today...

... and my iPod decided to die this morning.

... I am cursed...

Update: I've somehow managed to revive the dead. The iPod seems to work for now. No music though :(

What's it doin?

I was trying to download the last two BTalk podcasts this morning and it just locked up on me. I've restored factory settings, etc., to no avail. Now that I'm in my hotel room I tried it again. It *might* have worked... still letting it charge before I do anything else to it, though now I have NO music :(

It may be time for a new one anyway.

I kinda want a touch, especially now that you can get the internet stuff without the phone part of the iPhone. I want to wait till they have at least a 60GB version though. I've got too much stuff to fit on even the 32GB one.

Do you have to get a separate internet provider for the iTouch? I thought you did or can you rely on WIFI networks in other places?

I'm not sure. I'm guessing it's a separate bill if you want to use their network, but free if you're using a local wireless access point? I haven't looked into it much yet, since the machine's not big enough for my use yet (in this one instance I'm willing to be a size queen *G*)

So you're saying the unit doesn't have enough... capacity... for you liking... ?

Gah! That sucks!

I feel for you though...my last iPod got stolen 2 days before I was leaving for a trip. One day before the trip I went out and bought a shiny new one...

Well, my Federal tax return just got deposited in my account, so I may just have to splurge and get a new one. I may have resurrected this one for the time being though. It's still in ICU of sorts.

Well yay for at least temporary resurrection. :) Yeah, you may have it on life support...keep the Apple Store's number on speed dial ;)

LOL.. we'll have to see. I may have brought this one back to life after work today, though it's still charging and possibly could die on me again.

Wow.. I may have a zombie iPod.

I did stop and check out some new ones and they are mighty tempting.

Just don't sit it on your pillow...your brain is much too nice to be iZombie food ;)

[identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com 2008-03-11 10:54 am (UTC)(link)
I have a feeling iZombies eat music files...

.. and it's not like it has teeth...

[identity profile] mat-t.livejournal.com 2008-03-11 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
You never know...that case might crack open and reveal teeth. You never know what's inside those sealed Apple machines ;) Either way, I know you're just too pretty to die *G*

Heh.. have you seen me without makeup? It's take a lot of work to look this pretty...
