hi all!
ive got a shuffle 512mb which has seemingly died on me!
it was working fine , but today, i tried to switch it...and nothing! no green light, and when i plug it into both my comps to test it, still no joy, in fact the usb's don't even seem to recognise the shuffle is even there, as itunes doesnt auto start up , and it doesnt show up in my computer as ipod - and on top no orange light to show its charging
its a first generation shuffle, but has done me no probs so far till 2day, only been used a month or so, was passed on to me by my partner who has never used it altho she had it over a year ago so no warranty either
also cost wise if the battery has died or something which sounds familiar prob wise does anyone know approx how much apple charge to sort this?? ive seen an ipod shuffle again for sale for 30 quid at my local argos so if its not worth it getting fixed i guess ill pick up that one!!
thanks in advance!!

soz for the questions lol! just interested to see if worth getting it looked at just to know what it is, but as u say if they dont bother telling then no point!!!!
im actually more of a fan of the 1st generation chewing gum style player, as the smaller newer ones are just a bit too small for me lol!!
ill still get this dead one fixed if poss, will pass it on my little sis if it does get mended

cool mate, thanks ! ive used run programme rather than saving it, it has downloaded the fixer programme fine, but i have no icon appear in my desktop, so not sure if its auto running?? ill try it out tho anyway
tested it also with a usb wall plug , no joy!
