Well I have some bad news today. Seems to be, that if I have Best Buy recover the music files on broken external hardrive it will cost me $1000. Yep that is right! $1000. I have 100 gigs of music on there and that was my quote. All is not lost though, I found a program that will upload my iPod to an external hardrive for $65. First I need to purchase a new external hardrive for around $130 or so, and I will be back and running. Hope it works! Hopefully Angry will be posting some stuff soon.
Also, I just wanted to mention the new NY Dolls album, Cause I 'Sez So. It is kind of mellow and different from what you would expect from a Dolls album. It is however quite good. Keep in mind........no one, and I mean NO ONE can match the first two NY Dolls albums. They were that good. Just wanted to say. But this is 2009 and I am digging this one!

Good luck Ken. I hope you sort it all out soon mate.
ReplyDeleteKen - I think you can find freeware that will let you upload your ipod's contents. Check out Senuti. I think that's what I used in a similar fix.
ReplyDeleteYou've got better things to spend $65 on. Good luck--

cheers Finchy! Question, was it pretty straightforward to do, and did you upload to an external hardrive? Thanks for the info!!

Ken - I'm pretty sure I uploaded the files to the new computer (the old
ReplyDeleteone having died on me), and I think I replaced the external drive the next day. And actually don't remember if I uploaded directly to itunes or a folder I had set up--this was about a year ago. Sorry, not much help here! But check out their site. I had paid about $20 for a similar program, which turned out to be crap, then was glad to find this for free and it worked w/out a hitch.
Hope your luck is just as good.

Bad luck Ken. I hope you get things sorted, but dont ask me for help. Bring back cassettes :)
