Hi,
I had my ipod for about a year and 3/4 and i used ipodwizard to install some games onto it. This worked fine. (im saying this because i think there might a conflicting firmware problem.) Then i used ipodwizard again with a background firmware and i was installing it i accidently yanked out the cord to the computer. Then it shut off to a black screen and it isnt recognized by my computer or itunes. I tried going through administrative tools and all the noobish reset things but nothing has worked so far. The battery was half charged when this happened and now its in a permanant sleep. A quick response and solution will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Help or be helped

You might have to re-install the firmware from itunes then do your thing with ipod wizard again, try setting the ipod to recovery mode, hold the menu+center button until the ipod powers off, then, hold the play+center button until you see a check on the ipod screen, the ipod is now on recovery mode, lunch itunes, and connect the ipod, and you know the deal click restore, follow the instructions. Good luck

Thanks for the input but i already tried that. Plus my ipod isnt on, its (to my extent of knowledge) off and it isnt recognized by my computer or itunes. (by computer i mean another drive and my usb drives say there is nothing there.)

Thanks anyways

Help or be helped
