White screen battery icon after replacing ipod touch 2nd generation battery

Hi,
I just replaced the battery in my 2nd generation ipod touch. Now I only get a white screen with a battery icon when it is plugged into a charger. The ipod is not recognized by my computers.
Did I ruin it? Not put it together properly?
Has anyone had this experience?
Thanks

Hi,
I have no idea what your problem could be. You could try restoring your iPod if you want to try to solve the problem: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414.

Ipod Shuffle 2nd generation OneClick Problems

Hi
I have an ipod shuffle (2nd generation) and have downloaded the OneClickDigital media manager from the App store.
This has allowed me to check out audiobooks from my library... and they download to this program and I can play them there....that much is working.
The problem is that when I "download/transfer" the audiobook I get an error message that I can't seem to resolve. It says "iPod music is not manually managed....Please check the "Manually manage music and videos" option for your device in iTunes....IMPORTANT: All existing content on the device could be deleted by iTunes by checking this option".
Now here's the problem. There seems to be no "summary" tab for the ipod shuffle (2nd generation). The response I got from OneClickdigital says "Unfortunately, we are not aware of another way to manually sync music for specific devices other than the Summary tab Options settings. We do recommend that you contact Apple support directly in regards to questions specific to your device."
Any ideas?
Cheers
Tracy

I have the same problem with my ipod.
It doesn't flash any lights and ive tried all of these ways too.
Ive had it for less than a year and I won my ipod so I dont really know if i can go to the apple store and they'll fix it for me.
**Also would they do it or would I have to pay, and have the box, and papers?**
Because I don't have the cover box, but i have the clear plastic box w/ the white plastic holding that but not the cover box(i dont even remeber if there was a box over the white palstic thing).And i dont have a receipt because i won it, but i have all the other papers that were in the clear box itself even the stickers and everything.

2nd generation connection problem!

I have a ipod touch 2nd generation and my brother recently bought an ipad air so he got the newest itunes update on the computer and when I connect my ipod it will not show up so I cant put music in it. I need Help!

Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem

IPod Shuffle 2nd generation syncing problem with iTunes 7.3

When I updated my iTunes to iTunes 7.3, I had problem syncing my songs with my iPod shuffle 2nd generation. The error read something like "Ipod shuffle attempt to copy to disk "iPod's name" failed. An error occurred (-54)". I reverted back to iTunes 7.2 and the problem does not seem to arise anymore.

Well seems to me the only way to solve my problem was
to revert back to iTunes 7.2. I tried iPod reset
utility. restoring to default, resetting, everything
I could think of when I used iTunes 7.3 but none of
them succeeded. When I reverted to iTunes 7.2, it
worked like a charm again. Of course we would all
like the latest version of iTunes on our computers
but this problem has made me stay with iTunes 7.2 for
the moment. And does anyone feel that iTunes 7.3 is
so laggy?
Regardless of earlier comments on 7.2 vs 7.3, I think you've got something else going on with your system, iTunes 7.3 isn't laggy on my meager 2001 Dual-USB iBook G3 500MHz with 640MB running 10.3.9.

Apple TV 2nd generation streaming problem

I stream a video from my iphone 5 or Apple Mac to my 2nd generation Apple TV and very often it simply stops in the middle of the broadcas. I then have to restart the Apple TV then it starrs again. A few minutes later same thing happen. My software is up to date on all my devices. Tried everything to fix it but nothing works.
Any solution you can suggest as this is most frustrating?
thanks.

That would indicate an issue with the local network
If on wifi try ethernet
Go to istumbler, netstumbler or similar to get a report of the network. Look for signal strength and noise

2nd Generation charging problem

I have a 2nd generation ipod touch and it will not charge does anyone know where I can find out how much it will cost to have the charging port fixed? I do not have any warranty available so the support area keeps telling me I have to buy a service plan??

Check this article about your service options for Out-of-Warranty devices: Apple - Support - iPod - Service FAQ

IPod touch 2nd generation memory problem?

I bought a used iPod touch 2nd generation from Gamestop. The back of the ipod says it's 8GB. But when I connect it to iTunes, it says 6.5GB. I tried restoring it and everything. Is that normal?

100% normal!! The iOS takes up part of that memory so it is normal to be 6.5GB.

Ipod Nano & 2nd Generation Nano Problems

I bought an Ipod Nano last December and my brother recently purchased the 2nd generation nano.
With my nano, an ITunes CD came with it. I installed it and things worked great. However, my brother did not receive an Itunes CD, the instructions directed him to apple.com to download the latest version of Itunes.
We downloaded the latest version and every song that I had on my ipod (about 427 songs) showed up. About 5 of those songs showed up on his. (We connected his ipod through the USB cable that I got with mine).
Out of the 427 songs I have on my ipod, he wants about 25 and then the ability to add more songs that he wants onto his.
The question is how can we do this? When his ipod is connected all the songs are showing up on the itunes screen (and the 4 or 5 are showing up on his ipod screen). NOrmally in the version of Itunes that I used, once I made any adjustments to my itunes I could go to file and then "Update Ipod" and the changes would occur in a matter or seconds. In this case he has options like "Sync..." or "Transfer purchased..."
I don't want to lose all of the songs that I have due to this, so could anyone help us out?
Thanks in advance!

Do these songs play ok in iTunes?
Have you restored the iPod and reloaded the songs?
You should also try deleting them from iTunes altogether and re-importing them, then transfer to the iPod again.

IPod nano 7th generation battery problems

I fully charge my iPod nano 7th generation then turn it off. Two days later I go to use it and it and it was flat. What is going on?
sometimes i turn it off then it turns itself back on. But I sat and watched it after being charged and it stayed off but the next day it was still flat.
I really need to know what's going on. I would appreciate any help.

Hi Kelci27,
There are a couple of troubleshooting steps you should take with your iPod nano. First, I would suggest a reset. See this article -
How to reset iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
If your battery life issue persists, restore the iPod to factory condition. See this article -
Restoring iPod to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1339
Should it still not be working properly you may want to contact Apple to seek service. See this page -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Itouch 3rd generation battery problems

My itouch is acting a little funny. It is recently new and whenever my battery is emtpy and i charge it fully and I use it for at least 10 mins and turn it off for a while and turn it back on the battery is pretty much drained and I have to charge it again. My brother is having the same problems. Do i need to get a new battery?

Since your iPod is a recent purchase you have 90 day support. I would call Apple and discuss the matter with them or take it into an Apple Store.

IPod Touch 2nd Generation iOS4 Problems

Okay, I have an iPod touch 2G 16GB, since upgrading to iOS4 my ipod's suffered numerous crashes, it started off whilst playing games but has now decided to do it when listening to music also.
Basically what happens is the screen will flash white and then the display disappears turning the device off. Then when I try to turn it back on it won't work, not even hard resets work. I have to wait hours before tryin another 4 or 5 times before it gets going again.
The device hasn't been jail broken, I've restored it and reinstated everything but I'm at a loss here.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Dann

I am having similar problems, except it doesn't take hours it just returns me to my home screen. Also many apps won't even begin to play. I have updated some of my games and things with versions they claim are iOS4 compatible but they still have issues from time to time. It's very obviously a iOS4 problem or just a problem with every app available at the moment. Either way I think we can say this is a huge FAIL on apple's part to bring this out either to early or at all. I was planning on getting a new Iphone 4 but after these problems I can see why a lot of people are starting to buy Droid and I will be looking into buying one of those too.

IOS 4: 2nd Generation Photo Problems

Aside from the ridiculous lack of wallpaper, I have noticed another problem with iOS 4 on the 2g iPod Touch. All of my photos have had the quality drastically reduced. Even without zooming in, every picture appears grainy and pixelated. So now, in addition to not having custom wallpaper, I can't even have a custom lock screen background, because all of my pictures look like garbage. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? How can I fix it?

Hello Gcow55,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Several users who upgraded to 4.0 were able to resolve the issue by removing and resyncing all of their photos from their iPod touch. About the only suggestion I have though.

IPod touch 2nd generation music problem

Ok so my iPod touch music suddenly wont work through speakers. The notifications and clicks work but the music will not play through my speakers. The volume slider appears when I plug in my headphones and music works fine but when I remove my headphones the music will not play through the speakers. Earlier I played a video through a website and it worked fine. Now the volume rocker wont even work.
Tried reset and restore and it is fully updated. It is not under warranty so this is my only option.

You said you restored the iPod. If you only restored the iPod from backup. try restoring to factory defaults/new iPod. If that does not solve ythe problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
