First, put down the crack pipe and back away.

Now, is it used and you received it in this condition? If not what happened? Anything else you know about it?

If it's a 4th gen and you get the sad ipod icon, try dropping it onto carpet from 3 feet. No, I'm not kidding...

ok the Ipod is now somewhat working... but is more like a disk, or flashdrive in the computer... It ask for format and now it works... by the way after a few hits.. ok...

any idea of how to make it Ipod again and not much of a flash drive?

Restore it from iTunes, load the files from iTunes... use iTunes.
