ok my ipod video is like...over a yr old now. and when i try and turn it on it has a picture of an ipod with a dead face and then the apple website. i went to the website and it told me i need to restore my ipod, and to do that i have to connect it to itunes, but when i plug it in it doesnt come up on my itunes and says "please wait, very low battery" i have left in it for a long time but it still says that. im pretty sure its the battery thats whats wrong with it. my question is, could anything else be wrong with it and can i just replace the battery and not get a whole new ipod video? and where would they sell them if i could do that.(and how much)
I took it to the Apple Store and the guy asked if it would be alright to clear everything from my iPod and I said yeah. So he did and he basically charged it a little bit so that it would turn on a function for like 2min. And then I went to Circuit City and bought a wall charger to charge my iPod. It's worked for me. The computer thing just doesn't charge my iPod for some reason.

If that doesn't work I'd reccomend you go to an Apple store. You might be able to locate your nearest one on the apple website.
However, I got told it's actually cheaper to get a new iPod then have to pay for a new battery and get it put in. I don't know if that's true or not but when you think about it, it would be hard to put in...
