Found my 2nd generation iPod today and want to restore it to set it up from scratch - however the iTunes restore doesn't work so have tried using this app.
Unfortunately it hasn't worked - the error message states:
"The data partition could not be found and could not be formatted. Disconnect iPod, reconnect and then try resetting again."
I've tried several times but no go :(
Anyone else had this and then gone on to successfully restore??

Greatest present ever! My 1st gen 1GB iPod shuffle was believed to be dead for over 3 years, this little utility has brought it back to life!
It's as if I just got an iPod for free. Thanks, thanks, thanks!

Still a no-go (does not show up at all) on a 512MB, 1G shuffle w/ 1.0.2. This remains disappointing beyond words.
I'd give anything to have it simply SHOW UP as a device, on any OS.

Fantastic!
My Shuffle died six months ago while I was updating its software and would no longer respond. Took it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store, where several staffers couldn't get it to work and advised me to throw it away.
But this application quickly fixed it, and now it's working perfectly. Many thanks, Apple!
