Had my ipod in my back pocket when I sat down...didn't relize the entire screen cracked. Anyone have good luck with sending them to get a new screen. Please help as it is only two months old and now need it fixed.

Welcome to the Mac-Forums
If its only two months old surely it still has a warranty on it?

The warranty does not cover accidental damage. Sitting on one's iPod 4g is considered accidental damage. :\

If you think you can replace the screen yourself, go to iFixit: The free repair manual and look up the step by step instructions. Also while you're there, you can see if they have replacement screens on hand and what the cost would be.

I bought it from Target...I'm sure there is no warranty covering that.

Did you pay for it with your credit card? Some credit cards will extend the manufacturer's warranty if you paid with it - and some (like my Amex Card) will even cover accidental damage. Otherwise you're out of luck with Target and Apple.
