teardowned iPod try to synch with itunes to rescue data?
i got my watered ipod cleaned.
i treat it with destilled water and isopropylalcohol and with a brush a removed all visibel signs of corrosion.
there is to say, that the divice was for 2 days in the river.
it show various sings of electric shortcuts in the innerspace.
the frontglass, the display and backsheel are removed.
now, how smart was it, to connect the electronic parts (motherboard and batterie) with my powerbook befor reasseble it, to try to get a backup of my data ?
may i cause a defect with that on my powerbook ?
Is this a good question?

You could check the dock connection and the battery solder pads to see if you have any power at them when you plug your ipod in. Could be as simple as a shortened battery. The lithium batteries do NOT tolerate water at all.
