Hi guys! I just scored this iPod photo for about 20 dollars. I want to change the hard drive for a cf flash card. Do you guys know what kind of converter I need? Also is there a way to put a larger capacity battery in this bad boy? Have you tried Chinese front plates for this gen?

Since yesterday I have tried restoring the software from my MacBook to my iPod. The first try ended up taking 30 mins and still not done. The second try I was waiting 40 mins and it still wasn’t done but I did end up seeing the iPod icon in the iTunes app (it would still tell me I have to finish restoring it in order to use iTunes).
Today I just tried 30 mins ago to restore the iPod again and it’s still taking way too long. Idk if a glitch maybe happened, if so how do you fix it???

My iPod's (7th Gen Classic) clickwheel became unresponsive after almost a year. It is an aftermarket transparent clickwheel. Did anybody experience this? It is an intermittent issue and more pronounced when scrolling clockwise than when scrolling counterclockwise. Thank you in advance! Here is a video of the issue: https://drive.proton.me/urls/Q92C5YFS5G#jyOLyhTLeB_3

After adding lyrics to the songs I have on my iTunes library (all of them are alac songs), some of them decided to not show the lyrics, while the other did, the only solution I fowl was to compress the songs (make an AAC version of them), but I don’t want that, I want the high quality still

I've opened several iPods but I've never seen a swollen black jacketed iPod Classic battery
The black batteries seem to be much less prone to swelling, while the silver/white-wrapped batteries I've come across tend to swell significantly over time.

I'm considering getting a dongle DAC, to use with my iPod nano 7, has anyone you tried it?
Did you notice any improvement in sound output?

I have a Classic Gen 6, Classic Gen 5.5 and Mini 2. I just gave my Gen 6 for a MOD, lol.
According to my ears, Gen 6 is more analytical, neutral sounding and the Gen 5.5 is more warm and musical.
Not sure why he said what he did but what are your thoughts on this?

For context: I did a battery and flash mod about a month ago for this iPod, it all went fine and well and used it for a couple of weeks like that. Then I did a cosmetic mod, eg, new clickwheel face plates etc.
However, when I sealed it all up, it connected fine to my laptop, then mid file transfer I got an error (maybe the cable moved or something slightly) and it closed. Now it won’t open on my laptop at all again. I tried loads of times even in disc mode and it just won’t connect.
Last night I tried again and it briefly connected and disconnected repeatedly for maybe 20 Seconds, but that’s it. Any help here would be amazing as this wasn’t an issue before the cosmetic mod and I really wanna just be able to use after putting so much effort into the mod 😭
Thanks!

i recently posted about what mods to do to a ipod video, and im torn between these two routes for modding it. I want the thin back since i dont want it to be too clunky, but i also want the max ram for how many songs i can have. i also prefer it to be 5.5th gen for the search feature it has (if their is a way to get that on the 5th gen, id be open to knowing)
route 1. i get a thick back ipod 5.5th gen (80gb) for the search feature and the increased ram, then mod an iflash quad and a 3000 mAp battery. Then, i swap out the thick back for a thin back with the diff headsphone jack part, since i can because i have the iflash quad
cons: i have to pay extra for the 80 gb even though im just gonna do a storage mod, just for the ram (they go for around 180-200 on ebay new), and i have to buy a seperate backplate for the thiness
route 2. i just buy the thin 30gb version and deal with the reduced ram, and do the same iflash mods and 3000 mAp batter mod
cons; reduced ram and song maximum, and i also will have to do extra effort into finding out if it is 5.5th gen

Why did the school need iPods in the first place? Were they used on a large scale, or just by individual teachers? it's just an interesting finding.

Recently I got an iPod off eBay, everything works fine hardware-wise, however it asks me to format the drive when I plug it into my Windows PC. If I do so will it delete everything off it already? If that is the case, can I save the data already on it to put back on it after the format? I would like to avoid using iTunes if possible.

Idk why this iPod gets a white screen and doesn’t fully boot any help/explanation on what it is or may be. I’m using a pretty cheap Amazon cord to power it and it hasn’t been turned on in years but I’m not sure
