Grrrrrrrrr. I'm mad as hell. iPod has the unhappy face of death (hardware is gone). Although there isn't anything you guys can answer that I can't ask people on the iPod forums, I do have one question?

Has anyone had this problem?

And don't anyone say the fit isn't the culprit. I was driving and listening to music and the music suddenly stopped. I got home and the unhappy triangle face appeared.

Actually I'm not that mad because my ipod (5th generation) wasn't doing it for me. It could be a blessing in disguise. Totally buying the iPod touch now, but still...grrrrr

 

I would never tell you what you don't want to hear - but I will say I've had the 5th G Ipod unhappy face experience without the Fit - more than once. They seem today around 18 months in.

 

I run my ipod nano most of the time, and have'nt had any probs...sorry you did. Let us know what you find out.

 

It's 100x more likely that your iPod just broke rather than the head unit actually killing it.

 

yeah, I dont think your Fit was involved, just an unlucky bystander who got the blame?

 

Agreed....

 

damn i fixed it...i mean woo hoo. just followed a tutorial on youtube and it's back to normal. Still convinced the fit did it though.

 

Well then you must be atleast a little bit mentally retarted.

 

i have ipod nano, nothing problem has happened!...

 

i love my 5th gen ipod and i had it for little over 3 years and never had a problem.

i have my FIT for a month and 8 days and never had a probelm with it on it either .

 

ah, kyle. how long do you expect this argument to go?

 

I would also like a back story. If there is a legitimate claim with some sort of evidence to back it up we might have a problem on our hands.

How did you decide it was your Fit? Why not the other 1000 hrs of operating time?

 

Hopefully pretty long. I'm bored

 

i have been using my nano in my fit since december...there were a couple times where it would not recognize that my ipod was plugged in, but i would just reset the ipod, and all would be good. nothing ever wrong with that usb jack from the car.

 

I think it's been accepted that OP is a tool and thinks the Fit killed his iPod.

 

the fit wouldn't hurt a fly who knows what happened though. how would the fit kill it...maybe overvoltage/a spike...?other crap would happen then :/

 

ipod hard drives are pretty touchy as it is. My friend's crashed last week.
maybe excessive bouncing could have killed it.

 

i had my mini (yes guh i know its like soooooo old) crap out about 14 mos after buying and apple replaced them sh!ts when i brought it in. if you have an apple store i'd march that puppy in there if mr "no" face shows up again.

 

never had such issues on any of my cars including both Fit's..
