I have a IPOD classic late 2009 160gb ... Only my play/pause buttons doesn't work ? Do I need to replace the click wheel ?
May try DIY due to cost
Just wondering if anyone's had this fixed how much it costs
Or if it's another problem before I order parts

I have found the solution for myself for the above.  I use a specific scripting program which is accessed by Control A. To pause it, you need to use Control B. not sure if this would work for any other application but it resolves my dilemma after hours of trying!

    how much will it cost to replace the click wheel on my ipod nano 4th gen?

    Depends on whether you have Apple do it or a third party repair company (which will be much cheaper).  Here are Apple's repair quotes.

    The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in
    Malaysia the warranty is only valid in Malaysia
    You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider
    in India but there have been many similar posts to yours
    and I am not aware  of them assisting  with an iPhone from
    outside India

  • I have an iPod Classic 5th Gen.  After 1 month I've lost all my music and playlist files.  The only files left are music I have purchased from iTunes.  How do I restore my music library to my iPod?

    I have an iPod Classic 5th Generation.  I have not used it for about one month.  When I turned it on, I had lost all my music and playlist files.  The only thing left on the iPod was the music and audio books I have purchased from iTunes store.  I tried to delete everything on the ipod by sliding the hold button and then pressing the center button and the menu and I saw the apple logo on the screen but the iPod wouldn't reboot.  Any suggestions as to how I can delete everything on the iPod and then plug it into my computer to restore my music library?  I am using a Windows 7 operating system.

    Does both your Windows and Macbook iTunes have the same library of songs?
    if it  does then, much easier to proceed, else try to load the Macbook with the same library as Windows.
    Note that only one of the Macbook USB port is good for iPod Classic, the other is too slow and may cause timeout, and I would suggest disconnect all other USB devices, while you Restore or Sync the iPod Classic.
    Connect the iPod to the Mac, (if iTunes launch, please close it back.)
    Use Disk Utility -> select the iPod Device->First Aid->Repair (use option FAT32)
    After the Repair complete, eject the iPod.
    Connect back to the Mac
    When iTunes launch, Restore the iPod when Prompted, (use FAT32)
    Sync your library.
    Good Luck!

  • My Ipod has a  blank white screen and my home button doesn't work

    My Ipods screen just went totally blank white and my home button doesn't work anymore any #Advise ??
    i've seen the other videos i can do it but my home button doesn't work ??

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    When it says place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    or
    http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:
    Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Overdrive Media Player for Ipod Classic late 2009

    Hi
    I am unable to transfer from Overdrive Media Player even though I have followed the instructions. It keeps telling me it is unable to connect and that iTunesw v9.02 or newer (I have version 10) is required. I have also enabled manually manage music and videos. When I cancel the request it tells me that no portable device can be found yet it is in iTunes and as a separate drive. Any ideas please

    Effectively, Apple have told you that your iPod is beyond economic repair. In other words, it will cost more than £102.44 to repair. They know that as soon as they realise that it has been water damaged, so that's why they haven't looked at it (or rather, haven't looked any further than the water indicator).
    The problem is that water gets in everywhere, and the electricity from the battery causes short-circuits, which damage components, so it's often impossible to tell which bits work and which bits don't. Even more difficult is when a component works sometimes but not others. When that happens, you have an intermittent problem, that comes and goes without warning. Such an iPod would simply be unreliable and you would find it very irritating.
    As soemone who has had to deal with the recent flooding in the UK, I can confirm that the water does terrible damage to electronics. In our case, the incredibly fine silt (muck) that went with the floods is almost impossible to remove from the outside of things, let alone the inside.
    I think it's time to buy a new iPod.

  • My iPod classic (late 2009) keeps turning the main volume up all of sudden

    I've restored it, but didn't solve the problem. Btw, It's on firmware 2.0.4

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I have a iPod classic 80GB (2008) which no longer plays or connects to iTunes

    My iPod worked faultlessly until recently when it suddenly began having difficulties connecting to iTunes and the wall charger. I managed to reset the iPod and it worked as usual for 2 days but then it decided to revert back to not working. When connected to the computer, the screen flickers with an Apple logo every 2 seconds but there is no other connectivity. Pressing the iPod central button and Menu together brings up the logo for a few seconds but makes no difference. I have changed connectors with no difference.
    Now it is completely dead unless i connect it to a radio with an iPod dock. Then it works as normal and states it is fully charged! I can navigate the Menu and select songs. However, as I can't connect to iTunes I can't add any new songs and I can't take it anywhere with me.
    It has been well taken care of since new and lives in a protected cover. What is wrong and How do I fix?

    Hi Luckytimmytot,
    Thanks for your reply and letting me know it did not work. It sounds like a different direction may be warranted here. Due to the nature of your issue you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources:

  • My ipod always has a charged sign. My selector button doesn't work too!!!

    when ever i finish charging my ipod, it says charged and when i unplug it, it still says charged. there's like some invisible charger plug in it but it always says charged. this depletes it's battery source. My selector round button in the middle is weird. it works to reset the ipod but it cant click anything else. it's not broken just doesn't wanna respond.

    Have you tried doing a restore on it yet? Since the middle button works for a reset, it must be working, but that it doesn't do anything normally makes me think your iPod may need a full Restore.

  • Center or in short Play/Pause button on iPod Shuffle 4th Generation Late 2012 is not working

    Does Apple replace my iPod Shuffle because the center or play/pause button is not working but all buttons are working except for the center button my iPod Shuffle is Silver and it has a scratches and a little dents and the back was pop up? what should i do help me does Apple replace it for free n warranty?
    and if it has a Apple Care protection plan for iPod will Apple replace it for free?

    If you did a Restore in iTunes, and it continues to have the problem, if it is covered under warranty or AppleCare, you should probably contact Apple tech support directly (not the users forum).  If you have an Apple Store nearby, a good way to do this is to make a reservation at the store's Genius Bar and take it there.  You don't have to have a reservation, but you can make one at the store's web page

  • I have a third-generation iPod nano, and the click wheel died today. Is it possible to replace myself?

    There's been a delay or lack of response for a while now, but the ribbon connecting it to the logic board is fully into the clip, and there's no clicking noise when I try to scroll or press any of the buttons. I've replaced the screen before, so I was wondering whether I could replace the click wheel, and how - there's a lot less on the internet about how to do that. I'm really trying not to let my iPod die of old age, so any help would be great.

    You will have to replace the front panel and rear panel.
