Can I use the iPod when it is plugged in?

I have an iPod Touch 5th Generation 64G and I really love it (I am a permanent Apple customer ) ... I just want to know ... I have a lot of work to do on it initially with typing information in one of my apps that is taking a long time (I am entering information in a database) ... is it okay if I plug my iPod in the wall or computer while I use it, or do I have to use it (not plugged in) until I have to recharge the battery each time?  Would it be a good thing to do so, or would it cause problems with my battery in the future if I do this on a regular basis?

Hey StellaJasmin, As Illaass stated plus, it may take longer to charge. But you will not harm anything. Cheers.

  • Can I use the iPod Nano cable and AC power supply with the iPhone?

    Just purchased my iPhone 3G. Phone was in my pocket and the AT&T clerk neglected to put the box with the computer cable in the bag with the other accessories.
    Until I can pick it up, can I use my iPod Nano cable? The plug seems the same size but I don't want to break anything.
    Also, there was no power supply in the box due to the recall. Can I use the iPod AC power supply I bought for the iPod? It is the white brick about 3" by 3" by 1" with a USB socket in the side.
    Thank you for helping me with my start-up glitches.

    Ps. When you do get the accessories, look for a green dot (on the side where the prongs of the plug come out). If there, fine; if not, your adapter is subject to the recently announced recall of ultracompact USB adapters.

  • Can u use the ipod touch without wifi like the phones do

    can u use the ipod touch without wifi like the phones do

    That depends on what you mean by "use".
    Sure you can use it without wifi. Many apps do not require a connection to the Internet. The iPod app (or Music and Videos apps, I can never remember which the iPod Touch uses nowadays), for example.
    However, iPod Touch devices do not include the "cell phone parts" - i.e. they cannot connect to cellular voice or data networks. Therefore, when an iPod Touch cannot connect to a wifi network, it has no way to transceive data with the Internet (short of Bluetooth, but that's a special case and I'm sure not what you're asking about).

  • How can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

    how can i detach the video from a clip so i can only use the audio when using imovie?

    First, go to iMovie/Preferences and enable the Advanced Tools.
    Import the video clip into an iMovie Event. When you get ready to use it in an iMovie Project, select the clip in the Event and drag & drop it on top of a video or photo clip in the project at the place where you want it to begin. When the pop-up menu appears, choose Audio Only.

    No. Time Machine has been specifically written not to back up to an iPod.

  • Can I use the iPhone when is he charging?

    Can I use the iPhone when is he charging?

    Andy, I'd like to know where you got that information, [citation/source needed]
    Whenver you see the plug symbol on the iPhone, it means its running on external power.
    Some datacenters use this method/always-on UPS, (AC power charges the battery bank, datacenter is connected to the other end of the battery) If there is any interruption in mainline power, the system stays up while the generator warms up.
    Do they have any battery degradation issues? Nope.
    Apple designed the iPhone to handle multiple methods of charging and discharging events.
    Remember, when new on the forums, whenever/wherever you post, people are trusting the information you provide, if its inaccurate, out-of-date, etc, you might want to do some research and learning about new technology.

  • HT201441 How about if I can't contact the owner? I really can't use the ipod. :(

    I bought a second-hand itouch 5th gen. It says that I have to log in the apple id linked to the ipod because the previous owner used Find my iPhone. I can't contact him/her. Now i still can't use the ipod. *****!

    I'm afraid that without the previous owner's ID you cannot use your ipod.

  • Can you use the iPod connector cable to charge the iPhone or

    only the cable that came with the iPod?
    Also, I put the iPhone briefly into my old inMotion speakers and a message
    came up saying that the device didn't support an iPhone and would either not
    charge my iPhone or have bad consequences for my iPhone-i wasn't sure-it did
    work in the speakers tho.

    I use an iPod connector almost all the time and have never had a problem, even after market iPod connectors, but you'll get a different response depending on who you talk to. The guy at the Genius Bar told me yes, but phone support said no. Short answer...You should be able to use the iPod connector.
    When you plug the iPhone into some 3rd party devices, you'll get a message stating "not compatible with iPhone" but that is because you are going to get interference because of the cell signal. You can put it into Airplane mode to avoid the interference or just deal with the interference and just click OK. That being said, I have read other posts where these devices do cause damage to the iPhone so proceed at your own risk.

  • Can I use the iPod touch 3rd generation with these speakers?

    I wanna buy some speakers. But now I feel a bit uneasy. My question:
    Can I use the iPos touch 3rd generation ( http://store.apple.com/ch-de/browse/home/shopipod/family/ipodtouch 32 GB ) with these speakers ( http://store.apple.com/ch-de/product/TR142ZM/A?fnode=MTY1NDA1NA&mco=MTE0MDM5Mzg ) ?
    I know that only first & 2 Generation is. But if I want to buy cool speakers, which should I buy then?
    Thanks for help
    (and sorry for my english, I'm swiss xD)

    You cannot.
    You would have to buy a new one.
    Apple will gie you a 10% discount on a new ipod if you bring in an old one for recycling.

  • Can I use the iPod with Apple TV?

    No it cannot.

  • Can't use the iPod on more than one computer!!!!!!!

    Ok, This has got me so frustrated! We got an iPod and installed iTunes. We thought we had it figured out - we purchased music from iTunes, played it on the iPod and everything was great. Then plugged the iPod into my other computer to listen to our music and it won't freakin' play! says the computer is "Not Authorized" and suggests that by 'authorizing' the 2nd computer, it will overwrite the songs that are already on the iPod. This is NOT desirable. We've downloaded and installed iTunes onto the 2nd computer and used the same login account that we used on the first computer.
    What gives!?!?! I thought this was supposed to be easy, but it's not! I was hoping for a quick and simple "plug it in and start listening to music." This is definately not quick and simple. Albeit, I'm new to this iPod craze, but this shouldn't be so difficult. I've poked around on the website and cannot seem to find an answer to this.
    HELP!!!!
    Thanks
    oh btw, Is anyone else getting annoyed by Apple's rediculous attempt at monopolizing this market by forcing us to use thier own proprietary software?!?!

    First of all, any computer that plays purchased content must be authorized. This can be accomplished by opening iTunes, then store>authorize computer. If you wish to use your iPod on more than one computer & not have your iPod content erased, you will have to have your iPod preferences set on "manually manage". See the following link.

    Also, it's not only Apple that uses proprietary software. How about Zune players, & several others?

  • My computer died. I do not want to loose one video on my iPod, how can I  use the iPod  on another computer? Please help!

    please advise how I can put my iPod on another computer, my old one died a slow death.  There is one short video on my iPod that can't  be replaced.

    - What is the source of the videos? If taken by the iPod you can transfer them to the new computer by:
    Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
    - If they were iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - If they were synced to the iPod and not iTunes purchases then you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView.

  • HT4623 the Icons on my iphone 4...suddenly get extreemly large, I don't know why.  I can't use the phone when this happens, I have to shut off the phone, which is a problem, just finding the red arrow and making it go across the screen to shut down...help

    does anyone know what is going on with my phone?  I don't think I'm causing this, but you never know.  my home page where the phone, camera, messages, etc...all the icons will get giant....maybe 3 will be on the screen instead of the normal 20.....I have to move the screen around to find what I need to open and then I cannot...so I turn off the phone, when the red arrow appears, and have to hold down one side of the screen to make the arrow move, If I try to slide it over with my finger..........I can't get it to the end.....eventually the phone will shut off and then I turn it on again and the icons are normal....but this happens several times a week and I would like it not to happen , what can I do?

    Thank You, thank You ...so much......that feature made me crazy!
