Does anyone have any experience with Ipod repair services?

My Ipod video has no audio, wether its through the headphone jack or the plug at the bottom that I used to hook it into my stereo.

anyone have any recommendations?

Sounds pretty dead. But, just in case, did you try the Factory Restore option in iTunes to clean the HD off and reload the software fresh? As long as you have all the music/video files on your computer, it's always worth a shot.

I've never sent one out for repair. You might try the forums at ilounge.com for more help.

I repaired my old iPod mini myself. I could walk you through that a bit if you want.

Which iPod do you have?

ziadel · 07-03-2007, 11:10 AM

Ipod video

60 gig

I would just repair it myself, but whats tyhrowing me is that theres no audio from either the headphone jack or the big connector qat the bottom that I wire into my stereo with, so I'm not sure if its just the headphone jack or the main board or what.

Other than no audio the thing works just fine
