Can your ipod get to hot it wont come on?

what happens if your ipod gets too hot?

If you are using it, you will get a warning message and the iPod will automatically shut down.  So I guess that if it too hot when you are not using it it will not turn on.

    The hotness indicate a hardware problem.

    My ipod gets warm/hot on the back when in use or charging.  It will also not hold a charge and is not operating correctly.

    Apple will do it for $79.

  • If your ipod freezes, skips songs, and wont load, read this

    ok, i have a 4th gen 40gb ipod which worked fine until i upgraded to itunes 5. now my ipod shows a folder with !, songs skip, and it freezes after 5 songs.disk mode didnt help either, as it didnt show up on my computer even though the ipod displayed do not disconnect. I found a fix for it. it sounds dangerous and crude, but it worked for me, and some other people. plug your ipod into your computer and it will say dont disconnect, and your comp probably will be locked up like normal until ipod loads, then take your ipod, and hit it on its side on a hard surface. do it while you hear the Hard drive spinning. NO JOKE. my ipod started working right after. however, the sound is really crappy now, but i was at least able to backup my files, and i'm going to use my warrenty to get a new one. the reason this works is beacuse somehoew the hd pin is out of place, and you can hear it clicking. hitting it will get it back in place. i know this sounds crazy, but trust me, it will stop skipping songs and freezing, and will appear on your computer. I warn you however, if you break your ipod doing this, dont blame me, i'm just saying this because it worked for me. give it a try if nothing else works. hope this helps. itunes 5 was really bad. anyone know where to get itunes 4.9, that was fine for me, and i had a separate podcasting program anyway.

    Hi Mark,
    I tried entering the serial number onto the apple website, but it says my iPod had not been registered (although I have registered it!).
    Anyway, I phoned apple support and they told me to go to depot.info.apple.com/ipod and fill in a service request. Unfortunately it said that my iPod is out of warranty, so I had to phone again to get them to update their records about the and they are sending out a service box in the next few days
    I think I'm definately going to take out the applecare service now!

  • If your Ipod get stuck while syncing

    Here's what happened to me, My Ipod would sync and get to a certain song and keep trying and I'ld have to force quit. I would try agiain and it would be a different problem song, but would essentially be starting over each time.
    I changed IPOD cables and it worked perfectly. I think I ran over the first cable with my chair. I hope this helps anyone who finds this note in the future.

    I'd have chimed in on this 6 months ago but have been too busy. I have 2 80-Gb Classics, and multiple PC's & laptops at the house. One of the ipods started with this syncing issue about 7 months ago. Went through all the five R's, and all the other steps that everybody here has mentioned. I'm the systems engineer (PC) who will kill myself to solve a problem myself before calling for help, because that's the best way to learn, so I really jumped through a lot of additional hoops to narrow down exactly wherein lies the problem with this ipod.
    I believe that you'll agree that what I'm about to show proves Apple is in complete denial about this issue. After going through all the standard diagnostic steps on my "main" PC (trying to sync about 30GB of music), I've tried syncing the ipod with the issue to an additional Windows XP PC, a Windows XP laptop, and a friend's Mac notebook. The issue happens each and every time, randomly through the sync process, no matter which computer is doing the sync. As I tried it on each computer, I also tried swapping out the ipod cables. No change - sync locks up every time.
    So I pull out the other 80GB ipod that has no problem (my wife's), back it up, wipe it clean so that I'll be syncing the same 30GB dataset. No problem syncing on my "main" PC. Repeat the process, changing only the ipod cable. No problem, syncs fine. Repeat the process on the other PC and laptop (with the same 30GB dataset) just to reinforce my findings, works faultlessly every single time, with each ipod cable. I did not try it on the friend's Mac, since everything was fine every time at home.
    After all that, tried the "bad" ipod again - sync locks up every single time. With multiple versions of itunes tried, and multiple versions of ipod's software tried.
    Now you, the reader, can disagree with me here if you want, but at this point I believe I have proven definitely that there is a hardware problem with this ipod, and I will not consider otherwise, after all the steps I've taken to isolate the issue and rule out other variables.
    So I sent it in to Apple for warranty work. They sent it back saying they ran their diagnostics and nothing is wrong with it.
    Hey Apple - I ran your diagnostics (from itunes) too - they also said nothing was wrong with it. You know what's wrong with your diagnostics? You need to have a mode that allows the diagnostic to keep hammering the sync operation for a good long time - long enough to reproduce the error. All your diagnostics are proving is that initial communication is OK. No one is denying that initial communications are ok, otherwise the freaking sync wouldn't start! And considering the extremely detailed email I sent that initiated the whole tech support request, I'm inclined to think that your ipod tech's (or at least the one that evaluated mine) don't bother reading the complaint, or immediately assume that every customer is an idiot and therefore anything they say should be immediately discounted as such. Or maybe they're just mindless automatons reading from a list of problems/solutions and if it's not there, it's not real. Whatever. All I know is, I wasted my money on an extended warranty if this is the kind of support they provide.
    I'm wondering if I shouldn't take the good ipod and lock it in a hermetically sealed shrine, never using it again, just to reassure myself periodically that some of my money wasn't wasted..

  • While using my apps my ipod gets so hot it burns my hand

    I mostly use facetime, but after maybe 20 mins my ipod becomes so hot it literally burns my hand and I have to shut it off.

    SIt is normal for the iPod to get quite warm.  Since how warm iis abnormal is subjective, I would make an appointment at the genisu Bar of an Apple store.

  • IPOD gets super hot while charging, won't turn off

    My daughter's IPOD was getting super hot while charging. VERY hot. It wouldn't let us disconnect it. We finally HAD to, it was so hot. It now won't shut off - has the battery with the ! sign on the display.
    Any ideas on how to fix this, or is this toast? thanks.

    I hope they will help - we've had it almost 90 days already - I don't know how long they are willing to help. I literally have a blister on my finger - it got that hot.

  • Iphone Ipod is crashing and it wont come up in ITunes! Help!

    I have a 16G 3Gs and yesterday, I was using my phone on a bose dock and suddenly the iPod started crashing. I can bring up itunes and it seems to respond for 3-5 seconds and then just closes out to the main screen.
    Everything else seems to be working fine, the phone doesnt lock up or anything. I tried doing a hard reset to no avail. I had it plugged into a usb connection on my car stereo and it would play pandora music but my stereo never fully recognized the phone. I just kept saying "Reading..." the entire time, never got an error.
    Now that im home, I plugged it into my computer to restore my phone and ITunes doesnt see it, though the computer recognizes it. Any suggestions?
    My info: 3Gs 16gig, iOS 4, Windows 7, Itunes 9.2.0.61

    I have the same problem. After reseting my ipod classic 80 GB I have a screen telling me to use the restore function. I have the latest iTunes version, I did restore but when the iPod restart I get the message "your iPod is corrupt, use restore function". I tried to restore again but the same message appear
    I don't know what to do. Please help !!

  • Does an iPod get too hot if you carry it in your pocket?

    I was reading the iPod Battery information page today on the Apple website and it had a scale of what temperature the battery should be exposed to. At the top of the scale, it said "95 degrees, Too Hot". Wouldn't it be hotter than that if you carry it around in your pocket (especially if you're wearing sweatpants or exercising)? If you had it in a case then that would probably make it even warmer, and I don't want to shorten the battery life of my iPod, so is it OK to leave it in you pants pocket? Thanks

    your Skin is an insulator for your body. Your Musclar system is in charge of Thermoregulation, thus the heat is inside your muscles, not your skin.

  • Does your X1900XT get very hot?

    And how hot does (can) it get?
    While trying it in a Windows computer I had its case open and decided to feel the back of the ATI board. It was very hot so I am not sure if that is normal for X1900XT or not?

    Thank you both for your replies. Yes, there is hot
    air coming out but any higher-end card would generate
    that, no? I'm just trying to compare to my other
    cards I had in a PC since I do not recall them being
    this hot.
    Then again this is ATI, I never held them in high
    regards when it comes to making neither hardware or
    software. Too bad the other choice (NV Quadro FX
    4500) is way too expensive.
    The Nvidia would be cooler, 110 watts vs. 132 watts. If hot air is coming out, it means the fan is working, and the vents are not obstructed, so it should be OK.

  • Is it normal for your iPod touch 4th gen screen to come off on its own?

    So I have had my iPod touch for a while now. I understand that things get old and fall apart eventually, but what confuses me is how does the screen come off on its own? I noticed it a few weeks ago when I was reading a book that some light was able to come out from the top area of the screen where the camera is located. I started to investigate about it and turns out the the top area of the iPod had came loose. A few days later I noticed that it started to get worse. It started to allow me to see the components on the inside. Then my screen turned off not allowing my to turn it back on when I later found out that one of the cables that connect the screen had came lose and popped off the connection for it. What should I do? Please help me and tell me what I should do to fix it. 

    "Do you have any duct tape?" Seriously, no it shouldn't come off, contact your Apple genius bar and get it fixed. Good luck.
