November 18, 200916 yr comment_297456 Reset help needed! The girlfriend's new iPhone crashed (was in parking lot and aborted a utube load) and a soft reset didn't do the trick. Is the next step a hard reset? From what I read, the procedure is to hook to computer and when iTunes recognizes, choose something.... Any other way to reset these devices sans a hard reset? Report

November 18, 200916 yr comment_297461 Thanks Bud! I'd sent those same instructions (thinking that a 'soft' reset) to her, hoping a routine reset sequence would do the trick. No cigar. Report

November 21, 200916 yr comment_298440 I am looking for software to convert DVDs to Mpg4s or other touch-compatible format. I've seen Aimersoft DVD to iPod Converter, Tipard DVD to iPod Suite, etc.... a bit overwhelming in terms of choices. Anyone could recommend what they use and what makes it a good option? I did a search in this thread, it came back w/0 hits. Thanks! Report
November 21, 200916 yr comment_298441 HandBrake handbrake 1) free 2) comes with presets for various formats and the ability to create your own presets 3) decent documentation overall it's a pretty decent program that's available across multiple platforms. I've only used it on a Mac, so YMMV. Report

November 21, 200916 yr comment_298638 That's awesome! (Steve Jobs doll) How's yours, Juan? Edited November 22, 200916 yr by Dusty Chalk Report
November 22, 200916 yr comment_298659 That's awesome! How's yours, Juan? Hi Peter, Check out the pic above. She is definitely in control! She loves dancing to bad 80's music. It's hilarious. -------- So, thanks again for the recommendation with the software. In this case I wanted it to get some training DVDs into the ipod to use while cycling (stationary trainer). IT works great for that. Ipod touch + external speakers good combination. I should get a portable dvd player, but this does the job. Report

November 22, 200916 yr comment_298738 Oh she's so cute! Somehow I missed that pic the first time through this thread. (I'm betting I missed the second page when I responded, and that triggered the second page as having been read.) Report
