1 Answer

Answer :

Electronic devices + H20 = disaster. Sounds to me like water got inside your iPod and damaged it, which is why it’s playing havoc with your computer. I’m sure the Apple employee had no idea what was wrong with it. Perhaps Apple Repair (or someone local) can help you, but that doesn’t sound promising to me. Sorry.
