I am unable to boot into disk mode, or into any screens, and the screen is blank. It's not a battery problem. The computer can't find it, and I have NO idea what to do.:unsure: I have an iPod nano 1 gen. Thanks will be given  |

Eventually you should see something going on if it worked. Edit: jomal beat me too it Last edited by TehPhelix; 05-26-2008 at 05:29 PM. | ||||||
