Help w/ fixing my broken ipod touch. I have to double click on an app in order to open it, can't leave the home screen, apps don't work!

I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave my home screen unless I press n hold an app and move it to another page, then when i press the home button so the apps stop shaking I can stay on another page. Other than doing it that way I can't scroll from one page to another. When I click on an app a thin box appears around it, not only with apps but when I click on the time or battery or ANYTHING! In order for me to open any of the apps I have to double click on it and then when it opens I can't do anything in the app. Even when I went to settings to see if there was something in there to fix this problem I can't go anywhere or do anything. Someone please help!!!

Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
Anyone help you with your fix yet?

Does the iPod touch only use wi-fi or if it's plugged in to a PC can it use the internet?

I have never done this myself, however I know you can use some computer as the WiFi hotspots. Macs do, and some PCs do.
There is not a way to physically connect the iPod to use the computers Internet connection.
If you use Windows - look here for help and instructions.

If your iPod Touch is too old for iOS 5 or later... there is not much you can do.
When/if you get a later model iDevice you will be able to Download Past Purchases using the Original ID that made those Purchases. (providing they are still supported by the Developer)

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

I need help on my possibly broken iPod touch 16GB (3rd Gen)

I've had this touch for more than 2 years (so warranty expired). One night I was charging my touch when I was sleeping. Unfortunately the window was open and it started raining. My touch didn't get soaked that much but noticed that the speakers weren't working because it was sensing that earphones were plugged into it (which none were). I dried my touch off as much as I could with a towel. Then I plugged some earphones into it afterwards and the sound worked fine. Unplugged the earphones and it still said it was sensing it, disabling the speakers. Randomly, when I pressed the home button as I was exiting the Music app the touch screen stopped working. I pressed the power and home button at the same time until the "slide to power off" red bar came up. I couldn't slide the red bar because the touch screen stopped working. I then proceeded to turning off my touch completely. Starting it up again holding the power and home button after a while. I got the apple logo, but faintly (as if the brightness level was at the lowest setting) and it didn't go to the home screen. It just was stuck at the apple logo. I pressed the power and home button again to turn it off and on and still got only the faint apple logo. I googled this problem and a solution I found was to plug it into my computer and press the power and home button. Now it won't show the apple logo at all when I hold down the power and home button. Now... well I'm typing this horrid situation to you guys... D:

I would try to turn off the iPod and dry it as suggested in he following:
http://www.ehow.com/how5356376fix-wet-ipod-iphone.html
The charge it and maybe restore it. BTW, Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3G iPods so I doubt you have a 3G. See the following for identifying your iPod:

Will apple fix a broken ipod touch screen

my friend smashed his ipod touch screen and its completly broken he bought it from futureshop and his dad threw out the recept but he got it a month ago will apple fix it?

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price unless:
An iPod that is ineligible for warranty service may be eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. For example, an iPod that has failed due to accidental damage or liquid damage is ineligible for warranty service but eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. However, certain damage is ineligible for Out-of-Warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications.

Help setting up my new IPod Touch on iTunes on windows 7 64bit

Hello there,
I need help setting up my new IPod Touch to my Itunes 10 application on a PC running windows 7 64bit. I have watched the tutorial on how to do it but what the tutorial says it is supposed to do is not what is happenning for me:
1. In the tutorial it tells you to connect your ipod to your computer, then, (if it is for the first time) when the ipod appears and is selected, a window will come up allowing you to name your ipod, and begin selecting the options you wish to use.
I did as instructed but quickly came against some technical issues.
My issues:
1-1: When I selected the new iPod Touch for the dirst time I got an error message.
A) This was quickly fixed once I calld up apple support on the phone (turns out an IE browser setting was blocking it.)
1-2: With that fixed I selected my iPod Touch again but instead of the window indicated by the tutorial, I instead got an iPod registration form window.
1-3: I filled out the form and pressed the submit button (thinking everything was fine), then a new window came up that looks like this:
Free Find My iPhone

The first three lines and the first paragraph are indented as if there should be some type of graphic there, but it is missing. The underlined words indicate that they are supposed to be links, but they don't go anywhere, they are broken!
Now wheenever I connect my iPod Touch and select it the above window comes up and nomatter what I try it will not move or change.
Please help!

Can a broken ipod touch be traded in for a discount on an ipad or just a new ipod?

I have a broken IPOD Touch, I had taken it to the apple store to see if it could be fixed and it cannot, they offered me a discount on a new one. At the time I did not have the money. I am now in the market for an IPAD and was wondering if they would give me a discount on an ipad or just an ipod?
Thanks...

I don't think the two are interchangeable like that. You're lucky to get a discount on the iPod. However, that's up to the store/Apple.
Get whatever fits your needs.

How do you fix a jailbroken ipod touch gen 2?

How do you fix a jalibroken ipod touch gen 2? My son's itouch has the apple skull on the mai screen and won't do anything. Thanks-

ALl we can say her in this Apple forum s to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPOd. Yu can try placing the iPod in recovery mode. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Otherwise you will have to go to elsewhere. Jailbreaking voids the warranty and Apple will no longer help.

How to fix a frozen ipod touch, it only shows the apple logo?

How do you fix a frozen ipod touch, it only shows the apple logo?

Hello,
I have same broken iPod Touch 4G, I'm stuck on the Apple logo and only what I can do is just restart. If I connect iPod turns on but that's all. I checked a lot of tricks how to restart/reboot device and how to get DFU but I have only the logo. iTunes on my mac can't recognize the device.
And in Apple retail store the guy told me: sorry it's dead. We can fix for about £200. After 1 month when my waranty is finished. Funny isn't it? I can't believe that my lovely iPod is dead after 13 months. Where is the "for quality you have to pay." Is it conspiracy if you don't buy extra waranty we will send you killing signal into your iDevice?
Many thanks for help
