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?

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.

  • My iPod touch speaker will not work in music.

    After updating to iOS 4.3.3 my iPod touch(3rd generation) will no longer play music threw the speaker. It may play for a split second and it stops and the volume bar goes away along with the function of the volume buttons. The speaker will not work right away but eventually will return, it still works for youtube and and everything else but music.

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • The speaker is not working with music on my iPhone 4S

    The speaker is not working with music and often stops working with headphones.  Is there a way to fix?  I've tried the volume manually, in settings, restarting the phone, but nothing seems to work.  The volume bar doesn't even appear on the screen.

    That's unfortunate.  Have you searched this forum and read all the useful troubleshooting tips?  What exactly have you done thus far to remedy your situation?

    The airplay on my i pad works with music and pictures but I cannot get it to work with safari and mirroring.  Can someone help me to get things working?  Thanks!

    As an IT person, I can put my hands up to the same difficulty.  Then on double clicking on Home button, find AirTV symbol amongst Music control
    Solved my problem having spent hours looking for a complicated answer.  Well done Apple for hiding it so well.

    The screen is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer with the USB cable and restore via iTunes on the computer.

  • My ipod touch is no longer working with universal dock since downloading the new OS

    I have the Apple Universal Dock.  It had been working fine with my ipod touch.  I just downloaded the new OS and now my ipod touch will not work with the Universal Dock.
    Any ideas?

    Hi grecokev,
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
    You mention that your iPod nano is no longer recognized by iTunes after an update. Reinstalling iTunes is a good troubleshooting step, and if the device still doesn't appear in iTunes, try the following steps next:
    Turn off your computer and your iOS device or iPod, then turn them on again.
    Check to make sure that you've installed all required updates for your computer.
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might work only to charge those products and might not transmit data. Also, if you're using a third-party case or extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    You can find these steps in this troubleshooting article:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    If the steps above don't solve it, see the section of the article called "Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed" for some additional steps to try on your PC.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • Brand new ipod Touch (8GB) does not work with DHCP

    I have a brand new iPod Touch (8GB) that will not work using DHCP. No matter what I do (reset router, reset ipod) the DHCP still doesn't work. I can manually setup an IP/Gateway/netmask/etc. and it works but I really need the DHCP to work if at all possible. I'm using a Linksys WRT54G. I was able to use an old Linksys wireless router and the touch gets an IP, etc. with no problems but I can not get my Touch to work with the WRT54G. Any ideas?

    its possible to have a bad power supply that has too much AC ripple on the output which can make the screen do weird things

  • I can't charge my 4th Generation iPod Touch. There's no water damage and I replaced the usb cable.

    About a month ago my iPod touch went completely dead and I didnt charge it for a few days. I tried to charge it on my laptop, but it didn't charge at all. The screen didn't even turn on. I noticed a few knicks on the usb cord so I just replaced it. I tried the same thing again and tried to charge it on my laptop. Still no luck and it didn't turn on. It's like my pc isnt recognizing it at all. I went through Apple's support steps and it doesn't have any water damage. I'm not really sure if its something wrong with the battery or what. I'm not familiar with apple products. Can anyone help? Thanks.

    In what app are you trying to use a capital letter?
    Did it work before?

  • Touch id not working with iTunes and App Store

    Touch ID will work to unlock my phone, but not with iTunes or App Store. It keeps asking for my iTunes password. I have turned on 'Use your fingerprint instead of your Apple ID password when buying from the iTunes & App Store'. I am running IOS v7.0 (11A466)

    I was having this issue too, it was always asking for the passcode even though the setting was on for iTunes & App Store. To fix it I turned it off and then back on again, it asked for my password and then it worked.
    Steps:
    - Go to Settings -> General -> Touch ID & Passcode -> Touch ID
    - Disable iTunes & App Store
    - Re-enable iTunes & App Store
    - Enter your passcode one last time
    - It should work
    Also as others mentioned, under General -> Restrictions -> Require Password might need to be set to 15 minutes.

  • My 5th generation ipod touch won't let me preview music in the itunes store

    I can download music just fine; but I can't preview the music BEFORE I buy. Does anybody know why this? I have downloaded ios 7.
    Thank you!

    Also, when I go on to safari, another alert pops up that safari cannot verify the identity of the website, anything that I type in to as common as google.com. It gives me 3 options to either cancel, look at details, and continue. I've looked at the details of the website of Google and it is legitimate the site. Any help?

  • Apps on 5th-Generation iPod touch Not Updating

    After updating my 5th-generation iPod touch to iOS 8.3, none of my apps will update.  It goes to the point of showing the square inside the circle, and all activity stops after that.  Does anyone know how to resolve this?

    If the app has not data yo can try deleting the app and reinstalling
    You can also download on computer and sync to the iPod.
    Last, backup your iPod and restore from backup

  • 5th generation ipod touch rear camera no longer works; have tried everything; now what?

    so my ipod touch 5th generation's rear camera hasnt been working for a month or two. the front camera works, but once I click on the button to switch to the rear, it freezes. i have tried resetting my settings, backing up and restoring my ipod, force closed and moved the camera app, etc. also, when i use facetime or snapchat, the rear camera option doesnt even show up. Online ive read that this is a hardware problem, so i was wondering what i could do or where i could take it to be fixed? and if i did take it in, how much would repair cost? thanks in advance.
    also, there is no apple store around me within like two and a half hours. i bought this from best buy in 2013, could i take it there or can i send it in to apple?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
