I have a 30GB ipod classic that won't turn on at all, I have no idea whats wrong with it my friend just gave it to me. If anyone is good with this stuff, im willing to pay.
I have 32g's of music, I would flip if mine ever shit the bed! But I have it all backed up on the external Harddrive. Sorry not verry helpful, but I would like to see what others say, I'm not very good at fixing them either.
Sounds more like a fried motherboard than a battery issue. Replace the battery and if it doesnt work, you can pick up a new hard drive for 10 bucks on ebay
sort of a dumb question, but i'm just throwing this out there, i dropped my 30 gig and the screen got that whole "ink blot" ordeal, anyway to fix that?
