Is it possible to reformat an iPod without using iTunes? My iTunes can't seem to detect my iPod for some reason. |

can you access it through other means? I think Ubuntu used to to recognize iPods out-of-the-box. |

Ah yes. I forgot I have an iPod Classic so... In any case I'm sure a magnet could wipe Flash ROM, magnets are the answer to all questions. Well if you read Make Magazine that is. All I need is a rare earth magnet, a tube of toothpaste and the popes hat. |

maybe if the magnet was part of a generator... in any case, Ubuntu can format an ipod, ive tried to do it, i dont remember if it worked though. but good luck! |
