TANNER'S IPOD BROKE the other day, so as a last result we tried to fix it. Apple said that it couldn't be done. But we proved them wrong! ALSO: If your iPod is past its warranty and you have the "folder with exclamation mark" icon do what we did; Open it up with a knife, unclip the harddrive and shake it a little bit, plug it back in, close the pod and it should work! You'll have to set it up with the iPod Updater software, but it'll work fine. Better than spending $400 for a new one!

PS. Yes, the photos are bad, but you should get the idea. The last one has the iPod STILL OPEN but plugged into the computer! And it was working!

PPS. As per the post title, there were 2 loose screws floating around on the inside of the iPod, but I don't think that affected the performance. They were only screws to attach the dock connector port cover (just a peice of plastic, nothing vital), we removed them and it works fine.
