So I mentioned my troubles with my new ip@d. well they continue. So I get the upgrade for my operating system. Which was supposed to make the new ipod work, yes it was another 75 bucks to buy the operating system. so after that I try loading the new system and it wont install. so I call apple and they told me I don't have phone support for my computer....I am like come on here people help me out, it is your products fault that I am having issues. so the lady helps me and we try to make it work, she says we do everything except erase everything on my computer, nothing works. while we are waiting for my computer to do things I express my disgust in Ap@le, that there new prodcuts don't work with their ones that are less than 4 yrs old, that it is ridiculous that I have to update a perfectly good system to get there new ip@ds to work and she agreed with me.
nothing we were doing worked so we decided to erase my hard drive and give that a try. it was no big deal to me since I had already backed everything up on my external hard drive. So away we go, I am nervous even though everything is backed up. well it works this time I have a newer version of OS on my computer....then the unthinkable happens....I go to hook up my external harddrive and the computer doesn't recognize it!!!!!!!!! I have downloaded stuff that should make it work, but no luck there
I hope that I can bring it to my moms computer and it works, otherwise all my pictures, music, and everything else that I have ever put on my computer is now stuck on the hard drive........nothing is easy these days.
so now the ip@d works with my computer but I have no music to put on it since it is all on the hard drive........well time to see what else I can do
in other news I have decided to drive to AK so I am leaving next tues. I have to start packing and getting ready for that....so much to do so little time

Ugh. It should be easier than that. That is ridiculous.
You're so brave to drive. I hate being in the car that long!
let me know if you need help with your hard drive. sucks that you had to go through all of that. you should have called me!!!!
anyway, you can recover all the data off of it, i promise as long as the hard drive is still working. Jason did it for a living for a while. let me know.
and how long will it take you to drive to Alaska? how fun... and how tired will you be?
take care
Wow, you are leaving next week! That seems so quick. We leave for Australia the end of April. I'll be in Florida this week dropping our cat off to a friend. I come home pack the house up and move again.
goodness. isn't that stuff frustrating?! I second what Erika said. Even if the ext. hard drive didn't work, you could still get everything off of it for a price.
Congrats with the new job. I think you'll be much happier with it. Keep me updated. Maybe we'll have a good fire up there and I can visit on 'business'!
Have you brought the damn computer to a computer tech yet? That may be your answer. Sorry you're having all those problems. I thought mine were bad when I bought my new iPod!
Fly to Alaska.
