5th generation iPod has no sound in earphones

I've replaced the ear jack in my 5th generation but still have no sound. At one brief moment I got sound as I put the ipod back together but then it left again.

Personally, I would disconnect and reset while connected to a power outlet (of course you need a wall charger for that). Then if the iPod is seen when you reconnect to the computer reformat it again. If all else fails go to the Apple Store or call Applecare.

5th generation ipod has 'locked' up!

I don't get it. My ipod, a 5th generation ipod, has a dimly lit screen, it displays "Do Not Disconnect". I have been through the 5 R's on Apples site, to no avail. I cannot get the pod to shut off, or respond in any way. Also, iTunes doesn't even see it. Any help, greatly appreciated.

The sound on my 5th Generation Ipod has stopped working

So my ipod has the newest software and has been rebooted and all the other "re"s you can think of and yet the sound does not play. The video works fine, and the music says it is playing but no sound will come into my headphones, stereo, or any other way I have tried to connect it to get sound to come out. ANy way to fix without buying a new iPod?

I have the same problem and my nieces ipod fifth gen also lost sound capabilities - Apple should admit to this problem and repair them for free!!!!

My 30gig video 5th generation Ipod has a blank screen!

Now it won't even play anything. The screen just has lines on the left side, sometimes you can see the screen, but 99% of the time is blank.
Please help, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

- 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

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

5th generation iPod Touch speaker is not working with music and apps, but the alarm sound goes off fine. Why?

I have a 5th generation iPod Touch and it got a small amount of water in it around the speaker. When I tried to see if my music would play through it, it couldn't. But, when I tried my alarm to make sure I could still hear it, you could. The sound was fine from the alarm, not as loud as it used to be but I could still hear it. Why doesn't the sound work with my music and apps? Also, would I be able to exchange it if I have a warranty?

Can I use Bluetooth 3.0 headphone on the iPod Touch 5th Generation which has Bluetooth Blue 4.0? This will be a first time purchase of a headphone, (preferably behind the head, earbuds) mostly likely from an on-line store. Any recommendations?

Yes, it is backwards compatible.

my 5th generation ipod acts like it is going to sync and then "ejects" itself before even 1 song can be synced. It then doesnt recognize that it has been ejected and keeps the"do not disconnect" icon on the screen even after unplugging. What do I do? it also makes a lot of noise while connected to the computer.

Is the camera damaged? Could be a hardware problem.
Try:
Close the Camera app in the multitasking bar, then try again.
Restart/Reset/Restore your iPod. In that order.

My 5th Generation iPod will not play

I've never had any problems with my 5th generation iPod before. Then I went to listen to it, and it will not play sound at all. It looks like it is playing the song, the title is coming up, the timer is running... I skip through songs, forward through songs, go to different playlists.... everything. I can do everything on the ipod, but it will not play any sound. HELP!!?!?!?

The above post is great. That technique called a reset, but it should only take about 5-15 seconds before you see the Apple logo. Much longer then that and there might be something else wrong. And it won't hurt your files at all.
If that doesn't fix your problem, try a different set of earphones. Test them on another device first to make sure their working. Or you can test the earphones you're already using with another stereo to isolate the problem to either the earphones or the iPod.
If it is the iPod that's the problem you can also try to restore your iPod in iTunes. You're iPod will be erased and new software will be loaded.

5th generation Ipod Touch won't charge past 20%?

I bought my 32 gb 5th generation Ipod Touch not more than 2 weeks ago at my local Walmart. Everything was working perfectly until today. All day, my ipod would charge until 20%.. run on this charge for approximately 10 minutes, and then die again. It does not continue charging after the 20% mark and I'm not quite sure how to verify that it does. I've tried using the charger with different usb ports/computers but still no luck. My ipod has been going through some pretty cold conditions temperature-wise the last few days.. does that have any affecton the battery maybe? Ahh, at this point I'm just frustrated.. hopefully someone knows how to fix this!

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable
- Try another charging source
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

Problems downloading songs from Match to a 5th Generation iPod

I have about 16,000 songs in my library in iTunes on a Windows 7 laptop, and have successfully turned on and synced with Match, with a paid subscription. Now I want to download songs from my library to a 5th Generation iPod. Whwn I connect the iPod to my PC, iTunes sees that iPod, allowed me to Restore it, then I clicked the device (iPod) checked Sync Music, Selected Playlists, artists, albums and genres. I browsed the artists that it showed to select a portion on my library (since 16,000 songs won't fit on a 30 gig iPod) and iTunes showed only 136 out of 16,000 songs. I have a Playlist titled All, that has the whole library in it, tried selecting that, but got the same result. Why isn't iTunes seeing my whole library?
Thanks!

Is this an iPod Touch and have you enabled iTunes Match on the device? If not, which seems to be the case from your description, this isn't really an iTunes Match problem. You might get better help by posting in one of the specific iPod forums, or perhaps the iTunes for Windows forum.

5th generation IPOD not recognized by computer

Hey Internet users, my dad's been having some troubles and I was hoping to try and help him by reposting something he did elsewhere...
"Hello Everyone and thank you for reading my post.
I have a weird problem, my 30 gig 5th generation Ipod is not recognized by my computer or itunes. This is the last thing it happen, I was working on a client house for days, so my ipod's battery was completely dead, I was kind of desperate, so I thought that I could plug it to my client's mac just to recharge, but nothing happened. So days later I got back home and my windows PC will not recognized or charge the ipod at all. I got it charge and works perfect with my Ihome radio. I tried rebooting the Ipod, I tried resetting it to be in disk mode with not a problem, I tried changing the USB port, I did connected my friends Ipod and connected right away, so the wire connector is OK, I tried a different wire connector just in case, I tried connecting the ipod to a different PC.... I kind of running of ideas here. The ipod works great but I would live to download some new tunes to it... Any ideas. I cannot restore or upgrade firmware because ipod is not recognized by the computer....
The thing I am trying right now is installing the latest Itunes and see what happens. I have windows Pro SP3 recently updated. Your help would be greatly appreciated."
So...if anyone has any ideas, please post!!

I am having the same problem. Sorry I'm not going to be of any help. But I hope someone gives you some recommendations cause I really want to get mine fixed. My iPod did the exact same thing. It was dead and I tried to use my car charger for the first tim and it did nothing. Then I plugged it in to a friends computer and nothing. I can only charge it on a speaker dock. And no computer recognizes that it's connection when I use the USB cable.
