Cameron Zamani is a student at Sonoma State and living in Rohnert Park, California
while going to school there. He is actually from the Sacramento area. He
called me hoping I could fix his 4th Generation 20GB iPod. The problem was
with the hard drive.
I had doubts that I could make that drive ever work again, but it is far
easier to get a bad drive to read what's on it than it is to write to or
format it.
I was able to pull all of files off the drive and save them but
was never able to make the drive work again. He came by about a week later
with his laptop. I moved his files to an external hard drive then I went
and modified the preferences so we could add them permanently to his
iTunes Library. We ran the folder addition and then some... Oh, he's
theatrically incapable of a smile, this is how he wanted to be preserved.
The cost for my help doing this data extraction and preservation
process... $40
Fixed - Total cost..$40.

Erin Almeraz lives here in Santa Rosa, and stopped by with her son.
His
Nano 1st Generation wasn't holding a charge and needed the battery
replaced. I do this all the time and suggested that maybe she would want
to come tomorrow to pick up at say... 5:30PM.
I had it finished and her son was happy to get it back working.
Total cost... $55
Fixed - Total cost $55.

James Baraja sent in two iPods from Seymour, Connecticut with $95 in cash.
He has sent in
his iPod to me before. In both cases he has sent cash as the form of
payment. Both iPods were early Video iPods, one a 3GB the other an 80GB, each with different problems.
The 80GB needed a new LCD and battery, the 30GB one actually had a failed
logic board. I provided the battery, and took the LCD from the 30GB one
and moved it to the 80GB one so we had one working good one from the two.
James emailed back this
"Actually I thought both were lost, for me the joy of getting anything
back glosses over the loss of one."
The perfectly 80GB came back to him with a cost of $95
Fixed - Total cost..$95.
