4G U2 ipod (b&w screen)

When I plug the ipod into it's dock, I keep getting a message on the ipod screen saying 'no battery power remains' and a bleeping noise. The ipod shows up in itunes (briefly) but then it disappears and the screen just has the charging symbol but it won't charge. If I leave it plugged in to the dock, it goes through the same sequence as described above every few minutes or so. I've tried hitting the 'restore' button but it just says 'it couldn't be restored because it couldn't be found'. I managed to hit 'restore' whilst it still appeared in itunes but after contacting the ipod software server, I got the 'couldn't be restored because it couldn't be found' message again.
In truth, I've hardly used this ipod so it has spent long periods lying around dormant. Is it just a dead battery or something more serious?

How are you connecting the iPod to your Volvo?  Via USB, AUX, etc?  Has it worked before? If it's via USB check with the car's manual or manufacturer to see if the 5G iPod Video is actually compatible.

  • My ipod 4th gen screen kept jumping this morning. Had to do a restore on it and it is working fine now. However, when I did the restore it did not load the Nike   app that was factory installed on my ipod. I use this app daily. Any idea how to get it back

    My ipod 4th gen screen kept jumping this morning. Had to do a restore to factory conditions and it is working fine now. However, it originally had a factory installed Nike+ app on it and it did not install with the restore. I use this app daily with the running chip to log my workouts. Anyone know how to get this app back from Apple? Loading the Nike app from the app store is not the same thing as you need gps running continually for it to work (as with an iphone). Can't have that with my ipod unless I'm connected to wifi. Help?? Thanks.

    If you go to Settings do you see an entry for the Nike app? There is no way to delete or hide that app?
    Have you tired using the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find it.
    Next would be to restore a gain. First from backup then next to factory settings/new iPod.
    The Nike app you can download/install
    Nike+ Running for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad on the iTunes App Store
    Does work on the iPOd. You just do not get all the information that GPS/cellular connection can get. You will still be able to get distance/footstrikes like the installed app an you do not need the shoe sensor.. It uses the built-in sensors on the iPod

    IPhone black screen does not show anything, but I can hear that the device works. I hear the lock open the screen and hear the iPod but the screen remains black!!

    It's happened to me before as well. Try holding both lock(top right) and home buttons simultaneously until u see a slight flash of wight then just reboot it normally. If that doesn't work try restoring your device from itunes

    I have a 2nd generation Ipod.
    I have it connected to my computer and see (my name) ipod on my screen.
    Everytime I try to add a new song to the Ipod, this message comes up and I am not sure what to do:
    The Ipod, (my name) is synced with another ITunes library on A74F65. Do you want to erase this Ipod and sync with this ITunes Library?
    An Ipod can be synced with only one ITunes library at a time.  Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this IPod with the contents of this ITunes library.
    Then it asks me if I want to delete and sync.
    I am not sure what to do for fear of erasing everything I have put on my Ipod.
    I would appreciate if someone could help me out. 

    If I understand you correctly, you are trying to use iTunes to play the Music in your iPod but which is not in your itunes library. I don't think Apple design iTunes for use in your way. As to put and play music in iPod, the music has to be in iTunes first, so you play music in the iTunes music Library. the window with Ipod music is just to show you which music are already in the Ipod, in case you want to Manually Manage your huge music library.
    Here is the iPod/iTunes manual from the Apple Support Site.

  • I had an accident with my ipod. i did not know that; nowadays, the warranty does not cover my ipod if the screen is cracked. but now the battery is not working. the warranty does help me for something??

    i want help, not the same comments that i will not be helped. i admit my fault as the owner that i had the accident, but i believed that i was secured with my warranty. otherwise i would ha decided to do not have it if i was going to be the one paying to be fixed... how can i still trust Aplee Corp if the are not helping me with a devise that i paid the price that they decided giving me a warranty to be sure that i am secure while i use my devise. now i would like to know if i can have a refund of the warranty because i am looking for a different way to fix it because i have to pay and pay. but i paid for this situation and i had such assintance leaving me aside telling me that i am hopeless and also that i have to pay more and more.
    ir does not work like that. i feel bad being treated like that.

    It never - ever has. The manufacturer's warranty covers you against faults due to manufacturing. (So if the screen did crack due to a manufacturing defect, Apple warranty would cover it, BUT - Apple would be aware and would be able to identify the cause of a cracked screen due to manufacturing defects, so ...)
    Since you did not want comments telling you what you don't want to hear, you should condsider yourself lucky that you have any replies to this post. Sometimes, the truth hurts.

  • HT1212 im locked out of my ipod, and the screen isnt responding when i go to swipe to unlock it or when i swipe to turn it off. But, in the top left hand corner, there is an outline of a box. how do i fix this

    im locked out of my ipod, and the screen isnt responding when i go to swipe to unlock it or when i swipe to turn it off. All of my notifications are there but i cant reply to any of them. My screen is completly unresponsive. But, in the top left hand corner, there is an outline of a box. how do i fix this?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My ipod touch camera screen is upside down

    my ipod touch camera screen is upside down and as well as  apps. portrait lock is not on. I've tried restoring it, backing it up, resetting the settings, and the placing it on a table and thumping the back....i dont have a warranty any more so i cant just take it back and get a new one. is there any ideas that will actually work or is there any way i can buy a warranty for my ipod touch? PLEASE HELP!!!

    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.

  • HT1369 when syncing ipod, receiving blue screen error WDF_Violation

    When syncing ipod, receiving blue screen error WDF_Violation

    I am having a similar problem. I have an iPod Classic 80Gb with a brand new computer using iTunes11 on Windows 8.
    iTunes sees the iPod on the Sidebar, but when I try to sync or change any settings, roughly half the time it will crash my windows and cite a WDF Violation error. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. Regardless, even if it doesn't crash, it won't sync. It gets as far as "Starting Sync" and then it just stops.
    I have verified that the iPod still syncs fine on my old xp machine, and I have tried the following, all to no avail.
    Enabling Disk use
    Converting higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC
    Deleting and reinstalling the iPod's drivers through device manger
    Running iTunes in XP SP3 compatibility mode
    Running iTunes as Administrator
    At one point, with disk use enabled and 128 kbps bit rate selected, I managed to get it to prompt me to Erase and Sync. it went on to erase everything on the iPod, but would not load any of my media back up. Subsequent attempts to sync gave the same result.
    I had a look at the link above, but it's a brand new computer and I installed and updated everything myself to the latest version, except my Wacom tablet, which was acting funny with the latest driver, but it can't be that because the original driver from the install CD I reverted too has workd fine in conjunction with iTunes and this same iPod for years on my other machine.
    I am getting extremly frustrated with this. Someone please help make it better !?!

    my iPod Touch 4G screen flickering light and dark all the time?!?! I also have this problem where at the VERY bottom of the screen, Theres this white bar that keeps flickering on and off!! PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!

    The screens are practically the same.
    Did you purchase your iPod Touch second hand or direclty from the Apple Store? I would recommend that you go back to the Apple Store and show them both devices in action so that they can advise you closely.

  • IPod 4th gen screen lifting and black spot, what do I do?

    Ok so like 2 months ago my iPod 4th gen screen started lifting. I was like woah I have to get that fixed but the weird part was that I had never dropped it. Also after a while it started getting a black spot right next to where it was lifting. I ignored it at first because it was small but then it started getting bigger. My case has kept it together but to clean it I have to take it off and when I snapped it back on the corner where it was lifting cracked. I don't know if this was something like they didn't put on the screen right but I don't wanna have to pay so much to fix something that they did if it was their fault. Help please what do I do
    Would the warranty cover this?

    If the iPod was not abused it is covered by the warranty.

    How do i get the ipod nano touch screen fixed?

    Hello Kimberly j,
    You can either set up a service request with Apple through this or you can bring it into your local Apple Store/AASP and have them set one up for you.

    Another option would be a 3rd party repair company who would be able to fix the iPod at a much lower cost.
