How to clean the dust inside the screen of the iPod Touch?

Hi everybody,
lately some dust entered inside the screen of my iPod Touch.
At first it looked like one or two pixels were gone bad, but it is just some annoying dust.
The problem is that I cannot figure out any way to remove it.
I tried a gentle blow from the connector hole but the result was worse.
Any idea on how to clean the screen inside?
I hope it is not necessary to go to an Apple Center and pay for the "cleaning service".
Regards,
Andrea

It sounds safe to use
'Falcon's® "Professional" Dust-Off® "XL" compressed-gas is the perfect product for removing dust from your color transparencies before making scans or copy slides; it's also great for removing dust from cameras, lenses, computers and other electronic equipment. Each 12 oz. disposable can comes with its own trigger value and a 4.75" nozzle extension (a red tube) that allows you to place precise bursts of compressed air just where you want it.'
Check the directions on the back... also check the contents. Normally anything like that will inform you of contaminants harmful to delicate electrical devices.
If its just compressed air make sure you keep the can well back from the source.. and unplug the G5 (take it somewhere you don't mind dust.. there no point doing this in situe, just for it to suck it back in again!)
Also.. as mentioned.. keep the can upright (as the air is decompressed the can gets very cold)

How to clean the screen guard of iPod Touch!!!

I've installed a screen guard on my new iPod Touch 4G So can you please tell me how to clean the finger prints put on it. Any special cloth or anything

You probably should ask the company that made the screen guard. Otherwise, the microfiber cloth such as is commonly used to clean eyeglasses will probably work.

How do i clean the air vents on my hp pavilion dv6 notebook pc?

Latelly, the fan on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC has been noiser than usual and it appears that my notebook becomes quite warm to the touch. The HP Support Assistant running on my notebook PC recommended that I can reduce the heat and fan noise by cleaning the air vents. How do I do this? Can I do this myself or do I have to have a professional do it?

Hi Rosie,
You can clean the vents on your notebook.
Buy a can of compressed air. Essentially, you need to gently blow out the vents with the compressed air to clear out the dirt and dust. You need a can with a small straw like attachment for the nozzle so you can point it directly toward the vents.
Do take a look at this document first so you know which way to point the air and how to avoid damaging the fan inside the notebook.

How do I clean the ear jack???

When the ear/headphones are in the iPod's ear jack, it does send sound to the right ear piece. How could I clean the ear jack without sending it to apple?

- Try blowing it out
- Insert/remove the headphone plug a dozen or so times.
- Insert a plastic or wood stick the size of the plug. However, be careful not to break it off inside the jack
If the jack needs replacement Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price:

A third-party place will replace the jack for less. Here is one place:

Is it okay to clean your iPod Touch with just a washcloth and clean water?

I was just wondering if cleaning my iPod Touch with just water and a washcloth would be alright. Is there something better to use thats free?

A soft lint-free cloth is all that's recommended and usually all that is necessary. If you have some sort of material on the iPod that you can't get off with just a dry cloth, then you can use a damp - and by "damp" I really do mean damp; if you can squeeze any water out if it, it's too wet - cloth for just that material. It will be up to you to make sure that no liquid gets into the iPod.

How to clean the back part of an iPod

Any tips on how to clean the metalic back part of an iPod?

The manual says:
Important handling information
Cleaning Clean iPod touch immediately if it comes in contact with anything that may cause stains—such as dirt, ink, makeup, or lotions. To clean:
Disconnect all cables and turn iPod touch off (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, then slide the onscreen slider).
Use a soft, lint-free cloth.
Avoid getting moisture in openings.
Don’t use cleaning products or compressed air.
The front of iPod touch is made of glass with a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic (oil repellant) coating. This coating wears over time with normal usage. Cleaning products and abrasive materials will further diminish the coating, and may scratch the glass. Abrasive media may also scratch iPod touch.
Using connectors, ports, and buttons Never force a connector into a port or apply excessive pressure to a button, because this may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for obstructions and make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

Hi, please help my other daughter her ipod touch is disabled connect to itunes after say its itunes couldnt connect to the ipod touch coz its is locked with a passcode?? please help how...

hi, my daughter hers ipod touch is disabled connect to itunes after say its itunes couldnot connect to the "ipod touch" because its is locked with a passcode please help how to fix connect...i did turn off her ipod touch put usb back on there same in doenot say still ipod is disabled i dont understand please help how???

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

Clean the Screen with alcohol???

Does anyone know if it is safe to clean the screen with an alcohol prep pad? I'm a bit of a germ freak. I've cleaned all my other phones and they have been fine. I just wasn't sure about the touch screen.
Message was edited by: r41pi

i have a great way to clean the screen. have had my phone for 4 months and it looks as good as new. every evening i take a regular handtowel, wet the corner with water, squeeze out the excess, and rub the screen. then i take a dry part of the towl and rub it again. it cleans it completely and perfectlyly. as i said, my screen looks as good as new.
i also use one of the leatherette eyeglass holders, slipsleeve style to hold my ohone when not in use. i cut off about two inches of the top, re-sewed it and it works great as protection when the phone is not in use. the inside is a felt type material and protects the screen nicely.

Clean the screen !!!

TIP THe touch screen was slow-sluggish I cleaned the glass and it made an immediate difference lol didn't think it would.... so try it and see... the top screen is glass so you can use optical glass cleaner or the like... it really did make a big difference ... my stylus went missing on day one so I have been using my fingers , so the screen got dirty./smeared it didn't look dirty but obviously it was....

Hello,
Thank you for your post.
Great tip, thank you for sharing.

Should I clean the sensor before mounting the new lens?

Hello guys! Sorry for a silly question, but I'm not sure I know the correct answer. One of the cameras I'm using is Canon 5d classic, and it has some dust on the sensor and viewfinder (not unusual for 5di). I just got a new lens, and I'm wondering if there's a possibility for the dust on the sensor/viewfinder get inside the lens while shooting? Or I should clean the sensor/viewfinder before mounting? Or just forget about dust as dust will evertually get inside the lens? Thanks! I appreciate your answers!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Good advice so far....
1. You don't have to worry about using your lens on the camera. The lens is pretty well sealed against dust, so any dust that's in the camera's mirror box is unlikely to migrate into the lens (it's more likely to migrate onto the sensor, but even that is low risk). There's no such thing as a completely dust free lens, anyway. A few specks of dust inside a lens have virtually no effect on images.
2. You probably should take advantage of your CPS membership to have the camera cleaned and checked.
But you also might want to learn to clean it yourself. Some call the 5D classic a "dust magnet"... I just think it's got a large sensor for dust to get onto and has not got a self-cleaning feature as is found on later models. It's going to get dusty again, you can bet. So at the very least you might want to get a bulb blower ("Rocket Blower" is one brand) and learn how to use it.
You probably already know, dust seen in the viewfinder is generally harmless. It's usually on the mirror or on the focus screen and won't show up in images made with the camera (unless it manages to migrate onto the sensor itself, which is hidden and protected behind the shutter except for the brief instant when an image is being made).
If dust seen in the viewfinder appears sharp and in focus, it's on the focus screen. If it's blurred and out of focus, it's on the mirror. Unless you know how and have the right tools for the job, it's not a good idea to give the focus screen and mirror anything more aggressive than a puff of air from a bulb blower. These can be cleaned more thoroughly, but both are very easily damaged: The focus screen is optical plastic and can be ruined by using the wrong type of cleaning fluids on it. The mirror is front-surfaced with vaporized aluminum, so is very easily damaged. Aside from an occasional puff of air from a bulb blower, I recommend leaving the mirror and focus screen alone until you have a professional cleaning done.
A more serious problem to watch for is failing light seals. There are foam seals around the rim of the focus screen, which the mirror presses up against when it's raised, to keep stray light out of the mirror box during exposure. Over time those foam seals begin to degrade and can shed particles or even smear the glue holding them in place onto the mirror and focus screen. In general, cleaning up the mess, removing the old and installing new foam seals is a bit tricky, so I'd recommend you have any foam seal replacement done by a professional. (Also, there are similar foam seals elsewhere inside the camera that are likely to need replacement too, if the seals in the mirror box are going bad. A pro will know what's needed and have the skills to work deeper inside the camera.)
Time doesn't always allow to send a camera in for a simply sensor cleaning, so it's something you might want to learn to do yourself. There are two websites that discuss it in good detail: www.cleaningdigitalcameras.com and www.copperhillimages.com. The first is maintained by professional, independent camera repairers who also are suppliers to the repair industry and sell most of the specialized tools and supplies needed for sensor cleaning. The second is part of the commercial site of one of the particular cleaning procedures ("Copper Hill Method"). Both sites have good information. Read them thoroughly before attempting any cleaning yourself.
If you do decide to learn to clean the sensor yourself, some things you need to know...
Never use a common cotton bud (i.e., "Q-Tip") inside a camera. They shed fine cotton fibers that can get into and jam delicate mechanisms.
Check the manufacturer's website that any sensor cleaning fluid you are considering using is formulated and approved for your particular camera.
Any digital camera that's never had the sensor cleaned will almost always need a "wet cleaning" the first time. This is because there are nearly always oils on the sensor (actually in most cameras the surface being cleaned is a filter that covers and protects the sensor). These oils are excess thrown off from the shutter mechanism. Any "dry cleaning" method that touches the sensor will smear the oils and make matters worse. So a "wet cleaning" is always called for, first time around.
It's important to have the camera's battery(ies) fully charged prior to cleaning and to work promptly, so that power to hold the mirror up and the shutter open doesn't run low allowing the shutter to close and the mirror to drop onto a tool being used for the cleaning. Professional cleaners often use a continuous power supply instead of a battery, to be safer.
It's handy to have a magnifying loupe and light of some sort to assist with the cleaning. When viewing the sensor from the front, keep in mind that the image is upside down and reversed. So, for example, if you saw a spot in the upper lefhand corner of your images, when viewing the sensor directly you'll find the offending speck in the lower righthand corner.
Usually you will need a variety of tools to do a multistep cleaning....
"Bulb blower cleaning" to puff away loose particles ("Rocket Blower").
"Wet cleaning" with approved sensor cleaning fluid and optical cleaning swabs to remove oils and more strongly adhered particles ("Copper Hill Method kit", "Pecs Pads", "Pecs Swabs", "Eclipse" solution).
"Adhesive cleaning" using a lightly sticky surface to lift off lightly adhered particles ("Dust Aid").
"Anti-static brush cleaning" to clear stubborn, remaining lightly adhered particles and to reduce any static charge that's attracting dust ("Arctic Butterfly").
"Individual speck removal" with a reusable, precision tool ("Speck Grabber").
"Final polishing" is always a last step to remove haze left behind by cleaning fluids ("Sensor Pen by LensPen"). This also helps discourage dust from adhering to the surface again.
I've included some product brand names in the parentheses just as examples. There may be other equally effective products.
Most of the time I find myself using several or even all of these when I do a sensor cleaning.
Cheers!

Cleaning the iPad Screen

*Microfiber cloth* works great, it requires only a light touch and cleans off all the fingerprints quickly and easily.
I tried eye glass cleaning cloth, liquid cleaner and tissues. The microfiber is 100 times better.

Absolute best way to clean the iPad screen is dry, with the 3M Scotch Brite High Performance Cleaning Cloth. The cloth costs $3-4, but it is a woven microfiber that pulls fingerprints and dust off like nothing else. I've tried a number of different cloths, including those that came with my HD TV, etc. The 3M flat makes 'em feel like using a paper towel (NOT recommended...). And when it gets dirty? Toss it in the washing machine.
I actually went and bought a couple spares - one for the house, one for my briefcase, and one for the office - just so I'd always have the right cloth handy. The iPad is a great device; I'd prefer it not be a great fingerprint display as well.

I have the Ipod touch and only can hear out the right ear bud

I have tried numerous ear buds, even when listing to ipod in car, via a cassette adaptor plugged into ipod touch - can only hear out of the right speak.
I even took back my initial ipod thinking it was defect, but it is happening on this new one as well - any thoughts please? thank you

Sounds like the headphone jack in the iPod is defective and needs replacement. Have you tried cleaning the jack?
