BE REALLY CAREFUL!!! take out the battery and stay away from anything that looks like a capacitor.. oh and make sure its not that colored alcohol like the mint green color i see sometimes... it has additives for the color that leaves a residue.. use clear

taking out an ipod battery is a pain in the butt

right now whenever i plug it into the comp its recognized....so i think its okay for now (still in pieces though :P)

Thanks for the help everyone!
