Current Events > My Ipod classic has the red X

(+) Yeah! (+)

And I guess there is no real way to fix it. Time to get a Nano?

red x? what does it do?

i still have my 160gb ipod classic but i actually just upgraded a couple months ago to a 64gb ipod touch. i have ~40gb of music so it's enough for all of it. my classic i've had like 10 years and the battery life is crapping out on it. thought about just getting a battery and replacing it but i've wanted a touch for years for access to the apple store(i have android for a phone). just wanted to mess around with it and get it for exclusive apple games.

but in all honesty there's not much use for an ipod. your phone can play music. or just keep an old phone and turn that into an ipod. i'm assuming the ipod line will probably die out soon. doesn't seem like there's much of any offbrand music players anymore.

Apple believe it or not still services those

It keeps me from doing anything. Restarting doesn't even work. Supposedly the only fix is bashing it against a hard surface, but that hasn't worked for me.

But yeah, I've always had an android and and ipod. I like itunes and can't imagine life without it. I think I'll just get a nano. Time for an upgrade

Well somehow throwing it on Concrete worked. Apple is fucking weird

Why would throwing it on the ground help?
