Media files are stored on an iPod in a hidden folder, along with a proprietary database file. The hidden content can be accessed on the <answer>host</answer> operating system by enabling hidden files to be shown. The media files can then be recovered manually by copying the files or folders off the iPod. Many third-party applications also allow easy copying of media files off of an iPod.
On what kind of operating system can hidden iPod files be accessed?
