I am trying to install RockBox again, but the iPod won't get beyond this
step Press and hold the menu and select buttons for between 10 and 15
seconds - click here for a how-to video <http://youtu.be/Y_bIDtBohnE>. The
iPod will show an apple logo after about 5 seconds, keep holding the
buttons until it seems to turn off completely The display of your iPod
should now stay black, and a new USB device called "Apple Recovery (DFU)
USB Driver" should connect to your PC That's what you had issues with
right? I did it all perfectly the first time, but now I can't get beyond
that. So silly
