I have been holding on to this old 20GB iPod for YEARS in hope that I would some day find a solution to unlock the 18GB of music inside. I bought the thing in 2004 and loaded it up with music from all of my friend's playlists in the Navy and no longer had access to any of the source music. The iPod wouldn't charge and that mad me very sad. Finally I came here and discovered this amazing website!

The repair went great. I am not nearly as techno savvy as I'd like to be so I was a little nervous with the innards, but the guide was very straightforward and I had no problems.

Get the opening tool...it makes it a snap. Luckily the battery came with them!
