Testimonials...
OMG!!!!!! This website helped me so much! I just got my first iPod yesterday and this helped alot.
SallyAnne, USA

You are a genius, I thought I had downloaded iTunes 7... I didn't have to reset, everything came up as was on it when it crashed. I cannot thank you enough for not giving up, this one had sentimental value that you cannot believe and they do not make the black nanos anymore. I tried everything on the internet, and you are the only one that replied and kept at it until you solved the problem.
Thank you.
Buddy Kniffen, Midland, Texas

Wow Daniel! What a fantastic service. I really didn't expect such a prompt response, if at all. And thanks for your advice. I certainly will be downloading from the sites you have listed. We are bathing in summer heat here, whilst I guess you are sheltering from the approaching winter. As a student it is not unusual to work through the night and I must say, how fantastic it is to have music all night. And such excellent quality sound too. So thrilled to have iPod up and running!
Thanks again.
Ciao
Elizabeth, Palmerston, North New Zealand

Folder With Exclamation On iPod: How To

by Daniel Dwase





Here, you’ll learn about what to do if you see a folder with exclamation on iPod.

Folder with exclamation on iPod Tip #1

Charge Your iPod

If the battery is drained, your iPod will find it difficult to show its menu and the screen remains black.

This is an indication that you need to charge it. Plug your iPod into a power adaptor or your computer using the USB cable that came with it, and let it fully charge.

Note: Your iPod will not charge if your computer is on standby, sleep or hibernation mode. Make sure to wake up your computer and connect your iPod to your computer’s USB port.
