    Unhappy iPod photo extraction? Help!

    Howdy howdy howday,

    So last year I had a total hard drive failure for my comp00per, and as such lost a lot of photos because I hadn't figured out the whole back-up-your-files thing. The kind of lesson you only need to learn once. However, my music and photos were backed up in a way on my iPod photo...so it wasn't a total wash.

    I was able to use iPod viewer to extract all my music from the iPud and get all that back, but I wasn't as successful on the photo side of things. It seems the iPod changes photos to its own specific format and file names, and saves the photos only as thumbnails unless you check the box for full picture storage. I hadn't, unfortunately. However, the photos are still there (even as thumbnails), and some of those I really really would like...

    I'd found an ipud photo viewer-type program, but it would have required me to go through each individual thumbnail and re-name it, one at a time, to port them back. With a couple hundred on there, that'd be pretty tedious.

    so...does anyone know a way where I could just hit 'select all', and then drag-and-drop back in? Without renaming them all? And if someone knows a way to restore the thumbs to normal-ish images too, that'd be sweet too...

    thanks in advance.
