My ipod isn't working
« on: September 06, 2006, 11:57:44 PM »
After I installed Rockbox, whenever I turn my Ipod on it shows a screen with a folder and an exclamation point and says to go to apple ipod support and immediatley goes off. What should I do? ???

Uninstall Rockbox (the instructions are at the installation page) and then try it again. You probably made a typo somewhere, so be extra careful.

Yes. Either you didn't uninstall it properly, or the bootpartition.bin you used to uninstall it was corrupted (which would've also led to a corrupted installation).

This happened to me too. Plug the iPod in, and use the newest updater to fix the problem. You have to put the music back on, but in the long run, it's not a big problem. Maybe, tops, an hour of your time.
