Speaking of iPods, I tried to charge Sara's and suddenly my computer won't see it. Is there a trick to this? Something I can reset? I've restarted the computer, etc., and the iPod still turns on (although it needs to be charged) but my laptop just doesn't see it anymore.
You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

Jessica,
The only thing I can suggest is to swap out the cord and the port where it is being charged to make sure it is not a cord/port issue.

It's not - the same cord and port charges my iPhone just fine.

Okay, I'm really hating the LJ code rollout. I know cannot reply to comments on my own LJ (which has the default scheme on the comment page) in Firefox. Pfeh.

Yeah, the last time I checked early this AM, there were 145 pages of WTF on the feedback thread. Bottom line? The guy who owns LJ Russia bought LJ to be a proto-FB/Twitter for the Russian people. The features western users have been happily using for a decade are unnecessary and meaningless for the function he intends LJ to have. He's been derrogatory and dismissive of all protest. Hundreds of paid users walking off don't seem to faze him, either. DW picked up more than 21,000 new accounts today.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Jessica, there's the combo to restart which is menu and select, I think. And then you can press and hold play and select and it goes to disk mode. Then try the cable again.

When an old-school iPod gets really wedged you can sometime recover it if you leave it long enough for the battery to completely drain. Or pop it open and disconnect the battery, if you're really brave.

This is an iPod Touch 4G - not one of the old ones.

what kind of iPod, Amy? does it have a pass code? sometimes you have to unlock it to make it show up in iTunes.
