Why does it seem that everything breaks or falls apart when you have no money?
My poor old iPod is toast. I plugged it in at work the other day and it wouldn't mount. Here at home, I got it to mount a couple of times to start transferring data off of it, but it kept crashing my Finder. I managed to get all but the music off of it. *sigh* It's the same problem I had before. The firewire port comes loose from the motherboard. Since Marcus no longer works at his old place of employment, there is nobody to fix it this time. Oh, well. I did get almost three more years' use out of it. I just wish I could've backed up my iTunes library first. There seem to be IDE adapters on the market for these 1.8" ipod drives. Maybe when I have some money again, I'll try one.
UPDATE: Well, I held the firewire cable just right to transfer the music folder. I couldn't move my hand for over 10 minutes. OW! At least I can rest easy that I got all of my stuff off the ipod.
