Ipod 5g stuck on scanning disk..?
« on: May 02, 2011, 07:31:24 PM »
Well i just installed this on my ipod, and i unplugged my ipod and turned it on and its been on this scanning disk screen for a hour already... and when i plug it in nothing happens so i can't restore it or anything. What do i do?
I was thinking that possibly its because i have around 2k songs...

Corrupted file system would be my guess.  Reboot, mount the disk and check it for errors.

Not even if you force it into "Disk Mode" by holding Menu+Select until the iPod reboots, and then quickly shifting to, and holding, Select+Play while the iPod is rebooting?

Using PMs to annoy devs about bugs/patches is not a good way to have the issue looked at.
