I want to change the 80GB HDD of my iPod video to say 160GB or 240GB. Is it achievable with the same proceedure? I’d like to know.
Thanks…

Thank you every so much. Bought a disk for $24 and the replacement worked like a charm on my 4th generation iPod.

Comment on How To detect an internet connection with the iPhone SDK by Brent

I’m writing a corporate app using the iphone for delivery tracking. Is there a way to determine which wifi network I’m connected to? We have both a public and private wifi. However, the webservice is only available via the private wifi. The reachability code will tell me when there’s no connectivity, but I have to rely on the webservice call to fail in order to determine that they are not connected to the right network.

FYI. The Eye Studio 503-219-0023 will take phone orders and mail them via USPS for an additional $10.

You need to start the unit in disk mode while it is connected to a PC with Itunes running.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

your post was by far the most simple and helpful of all the posts I’ve read on fixing an old ipod. I’m glad I stumbled upon this page or else I would’ve gone to get my iPod serviced for $340 (NZ)

nice work.

Hi Josh, Thank you for the excellent tutorial. I ordered hard drive from ebay and tried to replace as you show here. After replacing the hard drive it still shows me a sad icon. I can switch my ipod to disk mode but just for few seconds and than again it restarted and again the sad icon. Can you help me how to put Ipod updater software on the new hard drive?? or what should I do now?? Thanks for excellent repair instructions..

Shardul.
