Problem with Ipod 5g
« on: September 25, 2006, 02:05:24 PM »
After droping my Ipod being connected to the pc, I got the folder Icon with exclemation mark. I tried ipodpatcher.exe -w 1 bootpartition.bin and as it didnt work i tried  ipodpatcher.exe -w 1 rockboot.bin . Still I cant get to my data laying on the ipod (explorer.exe idles when i try to acces the files and tells me somewhen that my ipod isnt formated.
While being connected over usb the ipod shows the rockbox usbloader.
Can i somehow acces my data before reseting the ipod with the apple software?

You dropped your iPod, and then it stopped working. I think you should already be worried. I'm guessing the disk may be damaged.
