  • 5th Generation iPod - with Apple Video cable - can't view it on TV

    Hello,
    I have a 5th generation iPod and an apple cable to view the video on the TV ... can't get it to work. Have sound but no video, tried adjusting all the video settings nothing working ...
    Any idea?

    Hello,
    I've also tried to watch my video's on my iPod Video 5th generation on television, but it won't work. I can't see anything. On the iPod I've made the correct settings. I've used Apple's audio-video cable for an iBook and put it on a scart adapter and connected it to my television, because my television doesn't have AV output. It won't work. Any suggestions anybody?

  • Charging New iPod with Old FireWire Charger

    Hi, this should be a quick one to solve... I have an old FireWire AC Charger from a 2nd (or 3rd?) Gen iPod I no longer use, and the original FW cable. The dock connector on the old FW cable fits my newer iPods (5.5G iPod Video and a Touch), can the FW AC charger be used to charger these newer USB-only iPods, or will it fry them?
    If so, will it also work with a Nano? I want to get one for a friend who doesn't own a computer, so a wall charger will be their only way to charge (in which case I'll just by a new wall charger if the old FW one is incompatible).
    Thanks!
    (Note: I don't need it to transfer data, just to charge)

    Yes, you can charge new iPod off older Firewire chargers. Just no data transfer.
    Cheers,

  • 5th generation iPod with 3rd generation dock connector?

    hello,
    I have a 30GB 3rd generation iPod, which is now a totally crammed... so I am planning on buying a new iPod Photo. With my 3rd generation iPod, a dock connector was included in the package. Will this dock connector work with the new iPod Photo, or do I need to buy one of those "Universal Docks"?
    I was looking in Apple Store, but couldn't find an answer there. Does anybody know?
    cheers,
    pj

    Hey,

  • Using the 5th generation ipod with the battery taken out

    Hello everyone. My battery recently died and I thought instead of buying a new one I would just use it without the battery inside. I removed the battery from the ipod and it can only be used if it is plugged into a power source. Since I primarily used my ipod in my car (which has a AUX adapter for the ipod) I thought I might as well just keep it in the car. I was wondering if using the ipod only while it's plugged in with no battery would damage the ipod or force my car to put a higher charge into the ipod and therefore deplete my car battery faster. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!

    ... if the power source for the iPod stays ON when you turn OFF the ignition, that would be fine; the iPod has continuous power until you turn it OFF. However, if the power source goes OFF when when turn your key to shut off your engine, and the iPod is ON at that time, it would suddenly lose power. If the iPod as a battery, it just runs off the battery at that point. If it has no battery, it is being shut OFF unexpectedly.
    I assume the iPod's hard drive works the same way as ones I've worked on in the past. That is, while running, the read heads (the little arm that moves across the hard drive disks and finds the information) are prevented from hitting the hard disk by the fact that the disk is turning. (It's a bit more involved than that, but I've simplified it - I hope!) When told to "power off", the read head arm is told to return to home and uses power to do this, then powers off. I think the danger in the above scenario would be that with a sudden removal of power, the hard disk would not be able to return the read heads to home and this means the read mechanism would crash into the disk itself. This is known as a head crash - it's not good.
    I'm surprised to read that this iPod works with no battery in it. Normally, if the battery in the iPod is fully drained, when connected up to a power source nothing happens for a while and then a message appears saying "please wait, batttery very low". At this point, the iPod will not work. In other words, until the iPod senses that it has enough power to run on its own (and protect the hard drive), it will not run at all. So with no battery in it, how does it sense the "sufficient reserve" condition?

  • 5th generation iPod nano compatibility with Linux?

    I have Linux on my computer is the 5th generation iPod nano compatible with my operating system? Would i need to install a particular program to make it work.

    Why not let the customer choose to use iTunes or not ?
    Be able to add individual files just by copying them from any computer (any OS, with or without iTunes installed), and use a filesystem browser on the iPod to select which file to play in which directory.
    Only Apple would know the answer to this. However, based on the history of the iPod, it seems unlikely that you're going to see this happen. One of the major differentiating features of the iPod is that one doesn't have to mess with a file system browser, it's all handled automatically by iTunes. Now, that's not to say that everyone is going to like players that work this way. Hence, the continuing market for other brands of players.
    Please, release a new iPod firmware supporting this feature.
    Again, seems very unlikely as it runs counter to the entire Apple design philosophy. However, if you want to make your feelings known to Apple (as opposed to just the fellow users who are going to be seeing this post), submit your feedback here:

  • 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.
