Open a 2nd Generation iPod Nano

Open a 2nd Generation iPod Nano - Use a guitar pick to remove the two white plastic bezels located on the top and bottom of the iPod. One bezel contains the headphone jack and the other contains the on and off switch. Slide the guitar pick down the side of the bezel and pry it out. The bezels are attached by glue, so they should come out fairly easily.

Use a mini Philips screwdriver to remove two screws from the bottom of the iPod where the headphone jack is located. One screw is located on a white piece next to the head phone jack and the other is located on a silver piece on the opposite end.
Remove the headphone jack by sticking a mini screwdriver down the side of the white plastic piece and prying it out. It will still be attached by a cord but will be removed from the rest of the iPod.

Put the mini Philips screwdriver into the hole where the headphone jack was located. Feel for a screw about half an inch down. Remove this screw.

Use the mini screwdriver to remove a long silver piece located next to the original location of the headphone jack. Put the tip of the screwdriver underneath the silver piece and lift it up.

The 2nd generation iPod nano was first sold in September 2006, but was replaced a year later by the 3rd generation nano. Apple does not recommend taking apart their products at home, because they can be damaged. The 2nd generation nano was sold in 2GB, 4GB and 8GB models, and was available in six colors.
