Before the iPhone and iPod Touch, the iPod is the most popular mobile device from Apple. As the gadget that boasts of hard disk storage, you can store thousands of music in a single player. With the onslaught of different iPod Video (now iPod Classic) versions, users have a good variety of gadgets to choose from for their music and video player.

But iPod Video and other Apple mobile devices has a huge drawback. Your gadget could only be synced with one device. After you synch your gadget with one computer, you can’t attach it with another device. If you attach your iPod to a computer with iTunes, the iTunes in another device will change the files based on the new computer. Transferring files from your iPod to another computer is also impossible.

Fortunately, these drawbacks could be taken cared of by a small application called iDump. Using the application is relatively easy – just place .exe file in your iPod and click on it if you want to transfer the files from your iPod to another computer. Since the application is less than 1mb in size, downloading and using iDump is very easy.

But remember that installing this file could destroy your warranty. It’s highly recommended to use this file after the store warranty to make sure your gadget will work as expected. Unfortunately, the application is yet to be updated so that it could work in iPod Touch and iPhone. If you have an old iPod lying around, this application should encourage you to use the former popular gadget once again.
