I’ve tried looking everywhere and i can’t find any good ipod nano 4th gen cases :( especially in pink .. does anybody know where i could find some?

Hi guys!! I need a little help as I'm having trouble finding anything online matching my description.

My iPod Touch (my first time turning it on, i bought it secondhand and its been stored away for some time) has this odd brown blotch. It doesn't change upon pressing at all. concerningly, the iPod seems to only heat up in that corner/general area when charging. I've decided to not charge it any longer for now just to get some opinions first. Practically died the moment I removed it from the charger. Any advice or input would be very helpful, thanks :)

i have a ipod 5.5 gen, and sometimes the songs wont load or take several attempts in order for them to play. For example, with this song, it took 3 tries for it to play. I only play ALACS from this ipod and was wondering if it was the format of the songs or just my drive dying lol

Never too late

I figured out the problem which is a weak port so I move it to my laptop USB but I couldn't help but to laugh at this

Hey r/ipod,

I wanted to share a little passion project I’ve been working on that I think some of you might appreciate.

Backstory

In my main car (a 2017 Honda Odyssey), plugging my classic iPod in via a USB cable just works, the OEM unit reads it natively, lets you browse, and plays music seamlessly. However, in my secondary car, I upgraded the stock radio to a generic Chinese Android head unit. When I plugged my iPod in through the USB cable, nothing happened; it wouldn't initialize or play music the way the OEM unit did.

Since I couldn't find a clean solution to bridge that gap, I decided to code my own integration app: PodFS.

Current Status

It’s currently sitting at a super alpha release, but I'm stoked to share that it is actively working and I've been using it every single day in my car for a week now.

I know this is a super niche use case, specifically targeting folks who want to pair their classic iPod with a modern Android head unit, but I figured there are likely a few other hardware tinkerers here who would appreciate keeping their setup alive.

If you want to check out the repository or follow the project, you can find it here:

I'd love to hear your thoughts or see if anyone else is running a similar setup!

7th gen iPod 120GB with master and dynamic mh40s. I have been daily driving this in highschool for the past 4 years and it has served me well.

+ added some new stickers before putting it on 🙂‍↕️

feels waay less fragile now, which is great because this case feels impossible to take off lmfao

screens used to be 20 to 30 dollars and now they’re bare minimum 50 from aliexpress? what kind of price gouging is going on. are we in hell

Is there a certain version of iTunes where I can add music to my iPod?

So i got this dual microsd card hdd from aliexpress for my classic 5.5 gen and i keep getting the ipod with the sad face and the apple support url screen. I‘m not sure if i‘m putting it in the wrong way? I have been putting it in with the sd cards facing the logic board and thats when i get the apple support screen. Im not sure if i should flip the hdd because i dont want to possibly break the ribbon cable.

I also know the ribbon cable is fine because i put the original apple harddrive back in and it works, but i can‘t use the old one anymore because it won‘t fit in with the new battery. Anyone know how to fix this?

I’ve modded IPod 5 recently and it’s been amazing. But the sound of Sony Walkman is so much better and clearer. I don’t know if I should keep both because it seems excessive. Have you found that the IPod doesn’t sound as good some of other DAC? Do you still prefer IPod?

This seems to mainly be a problem with the songs that I have ripped from my cds to my Mac. I've tried reducing the volume of the songs manually through iTunes but even this doesn't work. When I do this my iPod just mutes the songs until I use the click wheel to increase the volume to a level at which they unmute and are just the same volume level as before. Hope I can get some help here thanks

Since when did the 4G nano have a square screen?!

EDIT: you cant swipe by the way, the dots at the bottom are a remnant of fb marketplace!!

now it plays Kraftwerk’s “Pocket Calculator” on the piezo buzzer

My partner gave me their old iPod Nano 3 after finding it in storage. 1615 songs on it. The battery is shot, so I'm getting that replaced, but I'm loving it. I had the first Gen shuffle and Touch 3 at one point. Went thrifting to find my ​childhood iHome and found the same model at my second thrift store stop. Lucky lucky! ​

Connecting the remote control enables the use of the radio.

So I just bought an ipod shuffle forth gen and need help getting music on it from a lenovo 300e 2nd gen chromebook. And I don't have any music on itunes/apple music

After scouring the internet for months and months, always finding listings after they had sold, or sold while I was still planning on buying (did not want to pay obscene reseller prices). I finally found a mint condition, 7th Gen 160gb from my local pawnshop with the original packaging: box, unopened dock converter even the apple pamphlet, device plastic wrapping. The iPod only has smudges and no visible scratching on the mirror finish. The best way is I underpaid for this gem😭

First the version number in the iPod simulator hinting at this calendar week, now the monochrome style Apple Music Icon.

Yes I used scotch tape. Yes it stays.
