# Thats fab!
So fab I feel bad for what I'm about to do. But fuck it.

THREADJACK!

Anybody know anything clever about iPods? Mine seems to have given up, its come up with an error symbol and a link to the apple support pages, and the computer won't recognise it to restore it or nothing. Anybody feeling clever?


(And if anybody says 'hur hur get a proper mp3 player hur hur' I'll find you and hurt you.)

# apple are wank
I am not buying another ipod after mine dies, nor am I buying into this whole iPhone garbage.



Not that this helps you in any way shape or form ;)

# This is why I don't get apple bashing.
I was guilty of it once. But that was before I'd ever used an ipod or owned a mac.

Life is much simpler these days.

# Is it an unhappy face symbol?
I've heard that happens when the drive 'sticks'
and can be cured with percussive maintenance.
Not just a joke to make it break further, honest.
Good luck if you try...

# I had this a little while back
Unhappy face sign came up and you could hear the drive sticking. It then proceded to crash my PC every time I plugged it in to reinstall the software. Tried it on my parents PC a few weeks later and luckily itunes recognised it, offered to reinstall it, and it's worked fine since.

So I fixed it more by luck than judgement to be honest! Good Luck!

# I wish it was an unhappy face, then I'd feel sorry for it
rather than just a rising feeling of anger.

Its a little folder symbol with an exclamation mark, and a link to the apple support pages underneath. Very worrying indeed.
