having adequate backups on hand. Don??™t be stupid like
Marc was. Make backups.

When you see the folder icon, try resetting the iPod. Hold down the Menu and
Play buttons (first-, second-, and third-generation iPods) or the Menu and Select
buttons (fourth- and fifth-generation iPods, the iPod photo, iPod mini, and iPod
nano), and wait about eight seconds. If the folder icon goes away after the iPod
restarts, consider the problem solved.
If you??™re still getting the folder icon, connect the iPod to your computer and try
to restore the iPod using iTunes. (See ???Troubleshoot Other Problems??? later in
this chapter for valuable tips about restoring.)
If that doesn??™t clear up the problem, you might want to check the hard drive
connection.
