Solved Why Won T My 32Gb Cf Card Work Ipod Classic

Chosen Solution

I’ve got an iPod Classic 80 GB model that won’t boot when I perform a compact flash conversion using this part: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sk… or this part: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sk… The CF card is good, as I’ve swapped it with the one working fine in my upgraded 32GB iPod mini. Can anybody recommend an adapter that works for this upgrade, or perhaps explain why I may be barking up the wrong tree? Thanks!

did you format it with the right scheme? i believe they these use the FAT filesystem.

Hi, i used the first adapter with an 1GB CF-Card to give it a try and it worked fine. I didn’t used a special format and let it up to iTunes to format the card. Maybe its a problem with the compability between the adapter and the card.
