Does anyone know how to get the case off? I have tried about every angle and I'm afraid I'd damage the iPod if I used more force! Thanks!

put one hand each side of the case at the bottom where the opening for the charging port is and pull apart, you should do that sitting down so you don't drop your ipod

Gently with a flat screwdriver you will be able to open it. It took me a few minutes to do so, but was never able to attach the strap to it. Good luck!

I got this for my sister and she says she just put her finger at the top or bottom, whichever had the wider gap, and pulled it apart like a puzzle he did not have any difficulty getting it out. She does have an IPod Classic and I picked this case/cover because the description indicated that it would fit that model. Hope this is helpful.

use a dime or small piece of chnage to wedge between the two sides and slowly turn the coin, and the two sides will pull apart

You won't break it, just pull apart front and back pieces - were the opening for connector is. It does feel like it gonna break , but it won't.

there is like a space on the side where the volume buttons are just put your nail in that space and snap the case, it might seem hard to get the case out but trust me it won't break P.S. make sure you clean your phone before putting the case back on!

First, pry the pink tabs on sides apart. Just focus on one side, when you get them pulled apart pull gently and the other side will pop off. At first it was aggravating, then I realized what a terrific protecting case I had gotten for my daughter's ipod! Great Price and protection! Go Shining Gold!�

Hi Eric, I've had the case since August. It's always in pocket and I've dropped it a number of times and no signs of damage to the case or to my Ipod. It really is pretty tough. Hope this helps. Ron

I use a screen protector that sits flush on the screen. The case slides over the edges of the iPod and the screen protector, so, no, the screen protector is not pushed up.

I had the same problem, but I figured it out. You have to actually break a sort of seal that is left on the case. Stick your nail (or a prying tool) under the indent and pull up gradually with more force until the stand actually comes out. You should hear a sort of pop that sounds like it is broke, but it will be perfectly fine for future use.

I have an 80g classic -- I hope that it works. I can't get the case open to put the new battery in. I've looked at on line videos to see how to open the case -- and you should do that (there's a tricky way to unhook the old battery -- if you don't do it right, you ruin the ipod) -- and I still can't get ti open. If I had it all to do over again, I'd take it to an Apple store or send it to one of the online repair shops (best Buy, etc can't work on them.

It's not hard to remove. It's just a matter of prying out the corners with your finger nails. If I want to remove the case, I usually pry out the left or the right side, and then pull of the case. This probably will reduce the life of the case (possibly crack eventually), as it is not meant to be removed so often, just an FYI.

first take off the zebra skin it should be easy and flexible. Then you will have your iPad surrounded by the hard pink part. firmly holding your hands on thecover such that your two thumbs are on the back side.with your two thumbs slide and push up the backside of the pink part it should slide up and you could pull it off once it comes out of a hinge and the peace that is held on the front of the iPod is held a little inside also on the bottom you will see what I mean when u get to this point pull out the iPod and walla congrats you successfully removed ur from the case!

I have broken mine twice. You have to pry the phone out of the case with you nails. I start at the top left corner and then get the other side and it eventually comes out.

Prob not... All I had in it was my nano iPod which is very lite and small and I went to take it out and the whole front came off ... All I did was unzip it to take and listen to it and when I unzipped the front the front come right off... Sorry.

That's how mine works too, sorry. Kinda dumb for a case at this price. In fairness, the Apple case had the same issue. However, during use, this wasn't a deal breaker with either. Throw it in a bag, it stays shut. That's all I need.

the case is really flexible...with your fingernail slide in between the side of the iPhone's body and the case...then...snap it out gently (because you might want to put it back on later...may be...?...right...?...only in case...you don't like the case anymore...then...just completely...smash it off...I'm sorry, I was just kidding...! )

no, you cant. you have to take the case off if you are going to plug your ipod into a docking station.

Poke your finger thru the front opening to grip the front of case and pull apart. Here's a video on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVfi3PiJF5g. It's a very good case. My daughter loves hers.

Yeah, it's really tough... I found that if you go to the weakest point (where the volume controls are) and stick your fingernail between the phone and the edge of the case, you will able to pry it off.

I've been doing it by opening the case so everything is facing upward with the latch/ipad on the right (I'm right-handed), holding the latch slightly toward the inside with my right thumb and using the fingers of my left hand to push slightly upward on the back of the top left corner of the case while using my left thumb to snap the corner of the case off of the ipad. Repeat with the lower left corner then reach to the top left again (where the cut-out for the headphone jack is) and lift the ipad out. Mine comes out very easily now but it was probably a bit difficult the first few times :-)
