Hey,

This isn't a major problem, I've uploaded the song again, but I thought it was odd. The iPod ran out of juice, and turned off, so I charged it via the mains, and searched for the song, but it was gone.

Anyone else had this? Like I said, no big deal, but odd.
 
Hmm that sounds interesting! I don't own an iPod but I think this could be due to the fact that the memory is flash based. So when the song was playing and the battery/juice died the exact little memory slot that held the song probably got flashed or just lost power at the exact spot.

I say could be, cause I am not sure. Although this is just my guess from what I have read about flash drives/cards and studied at school in physics! But I mean if it doesn't cause any big damage, then it shouldn't be dangerous. :apple:
 
Never, I have only let the battery die once. As long as it doesn't delete my notes or calendar additions, I'll be fine... if those go, I'll be smashing my iPod into people's faces.

Wow... Can you just feel the love in this useless post? :rolleyes:

Probably just some funky little glitch Apple never found when testing...lmao @ it though! :p
