Dropped my ipod touch 1st gen on the floor and now it completely doesn't work. Since the first generation is discontinued, could I exchange it for a newer version?

My iPod Touch 1st Generation fell off the bed and now does not work. The screen didn't crack or anything but it won't turn on or do anything. I tried resetting it but that did not help at all. The computer recognizes when the iPod is plugged in but the iPod does nothing. I was wondering if I could exchange it, but since the 1st gen iPod is discontinued, could I exchange it for the newer version? Or even just return it?

You can only turn it into your local Apple store to be recycled for a 10% discount towards the purchase of a new one.  That's it though.

  • I know it's a little late but I recently updated my iPod touch 4th gen to iOS 6 and now it won't play my music. It will play spotify and YouTube music but not my music. Everything else works fine but when I go to play a song it just skips to the next. Why

    I know it's a tad late, but I recently updated my iPod touch 4th gen to iOS 6 and now it won't play any of my music. It will play Spotify and YouTube just fine, but it won't play my music. It will just skip to the next a d the next and the next after a second or two without any sound. Please help! Thank you.

  • I mashed the buttons and now my L200P doesn't work!

    Hi guys,
    I recently bought a second-hand ThinkVision L200P. I installed it behind a large sheet of glass, which seems to have had the unfortunate effect of pressing all the buttons at once for an extended period of time, and now my L200P doesn't display an image.
    I opened up the L200P case (it's second hand) and took out the little 'button bar' PCB to make sure none of them were stuck in. By pressing the little switches on the PCB, I see the following behaviour:
    Upon pressing the power button, I see the 'IBM Thinkpad' splashscreen for a moment, then it disappears. I think it used to then say 'Power Saving mode' but it doesn't anymore.
    Upon presssing and holding the menu button for 10 seconds, I get the message 'Menu Locked'. If I press and hold for a further 10 seconds, I get 'Menu Unlocked'. The text is clear and bright green
    None of the other buttons appear to do anything, even after pressing them many times and holding them for long periods
    Powering on while holding 'left' and 'right' arrows does nothing
    Holding 'right' arrow without any connectors in does nothing
    My hunch is that mashing the buttons has somehow, say, turned down the brightness and contrast and locked the menu or something. But I don't know how to undo it.
    What should be my next step? Like I said I've opened the case, so I'd be happy to 'hard reset' the unit by shorting a jumper or something.
    Regards,
    Richard.

    Lcd screen are not consumer serviceable parts.......... it is not like a laptop. There is no hard reset in LCD monitors like you are suggesting. You would need a new PCB from somewhere, you could try to source a broken L200p and salvage that part, but other than that there is little you can do.

  • HT201412 Held Sleep & Home buttons on my iPod Touch (1st Gen.) during restoration process, now won't turn back on. What can I do myself to fix this? Thank!

    In short, I was accidentally restoring/resetting my 1st generaton iPod Touch and I wanted to quickly get out of that, so I rebooted as you all know is that I held the Sleep and Home buttons together, and now, it doesn't want to turn on at all! When I try to turn on, only the "Apple" symbol appears ad disappears, goes back off, no power, after a few seconds. Any heard of this or experienced something similar? Anyone know any tricks if so? And, no, I have no time to go to AppleCare, especially since it's an outdated, 1st genration iPod Touch, and for that I feel no need to make an urgent appointment to them. I appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

    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.
    - Try on another computer          
    - 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 "Print what you like" bookmarklet doesn't work since the upgrade. When you click it, nothing happens.

    I use a program called "print what you like", and I have a bookmarklet installed for it. So when I'm on a page I want to use the program on, I click the bookmarklet and a sidebar window opens allowing me to modify the web page, etc. to how I want it before I print it. Now, when I'm on a page I want to use it on, when I click the bookmarklet, nothing happens. Some small text briefly appears about javascript??? but then disappears. So now I can't use the program.

    Do you have javascript enabled in Firefox? To use bookmarklets, that is necessary.

  • Help ive dropped my ipod touch in a bowl of water and now the sound isnt working! what do i do?, help ive dropped my ipod touch in a bowl of water and now the sound isnt working! what do i do?

    Help please:'(

    After the iPod was retrieved from the bowl of water did you leave it off for about a week or so to let it dry out.  Perhaps even placed it in a sealed container of rice or desiccant to help absort the moisture from the device?  If not, it's like that the internal speakers were fried when they came into contact with the water.
    If a reset and restore of the device via iTunes (both from backup and to factory settings) fails to resolve the issue, it's more than likely hardware related. In that case, you'll need to take/send your iPod in for service either to Apple or a third party service.
    To reset the device, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    For backing up and restoring, see this article.

  • IPod Touch 1st gen to iTunes connecting speed

    I'm an iPod Touch 1st gen newbie on iOS 3.1.3; My question is when connecting the iPod to iTunes 10.1.1 how long does it normally take for the device to show up? When connecting an iTouch that's OFF (connection turns it on), I find it probably takes 5-8 minutes for the device to show up. I'm left sitting there not sure if I need to do something. Should the device be ON? When using my iPod Nano (2nd gen) it shows up on iTunes very fast and I see the device on the Desktop. iTouch doesn't show up on the Desktop as a connected device even though Finder options is checked on so iPods are recognized. Otherwise, all is well and great with the device. Thanks.

    iPod touches and iPhones are not recognized as disk drives and therefore will not appear on the Desktop. I would say that 5-8 minutes to be recognized by iTunes is not normal, however.
    You might want to focus your efforts on your Mac. I would check/repair permissions on the HD, remove all earlier instances of iTunes, make sure you are running the latest version of OS X that you can (I think 10.5.8 is the latest you can use). You might have to uninstall iTunes and download/reinstall. The correct way to do that is in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224

  • Push email on ipod touch 1st gen. firmware 2.1 fails !!!

    hi to all
    I own an ipod touch 1st. gen. 8GB firmware 2.1 which fails in push email and a full featured mobileme (dotmac) account -
    Since a while, email push fails, this never happend before i updated to firmware 2.1 !
    Before ipod touch beeped in sleep mode when a email was pushed, now in 2 of 10 email it beeps sometimes, it only beeps when its not falling asleep
    I wonder about that, does mobileme push email still work, or is it the firmware 2.1?
    Can anybody help me please, searched the internet for days but did not find an correct help or answer for ipod touch 1st gen. push mail....
    Thanks a lot tobias

    ok, what i 've found out meanwhile:
    Since firmware update 2.1 wifi switches off, when ipod touch 1st gen. falls asleep, or is locked - so there is no working wifi connection for pushing email and of course no beep when a email arrives (in case no email arrives)
    That's a superbad bug in 2.1, and i 've to point out that this bug did not exists in vers. 2.0 ! There is no official solution or update yet and I don't know if there will ever be one...
    The only way to revive push email (and beeping), while sleep or lock mode is unofficial !!
    and a application called "insomnia"
    The solution with insomina works fine and like pushing and beeping in firmware v 2.0 !
    For using insomina, google cydia and quickpwn !
    Greetings Tobias

  • The icon on my message app does not work since the update, the recipient is set up to use it, my grandchildren

    The sent icon on my ipad doesn't work since the update to ISO 7.06 the recipients are set up to receive messages 

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • I was in Aussie last month and dropped my iPod Touch (4th Gen) on the road. The screen was cracked on the top left-hand corner. The screen got fixed but the wireless stopped working. Can I still get it fixed under my warranty? (bought last July)

    I was in Aussie last month and dropped my iPod Touch (4th Gen) on the road. The screen was cracked on the top left-hand corner (where the wireless area is). The screen got fixed but the wireless stopped working. So I am wireless-less... I bought it last July and its still under warranty, but can I still claim a repair on it?

    No because it was physical damage
