I have a 1st gen 5gb iPod, the one with the clickwheel and buttons round the outside.
Its worked fine for a long time, but earlier this year it failed on me.
When i power it, it shows the apple logo and then shows the Disk Folder with Exclamation mark.
Ive tried a few different things including
The last thing I will try is a battery replacement, but after that Im stuck at what it could be ?
Any suggestions of what may have gone on and how to fix it.
Thanks

Ive tried a few different things including
- Putting into disk mode and trying to recover but its failed to be recognised by the mac
- trying to reformat the drive through disk utility, now doesnt show up in DU
- tried 2 different macs inlcuding a powerpc with firewire and old itunes to restore it
- changed hard drive to see if it was that, still doesnt show up in DU
