Earphones aren't recognized by iPod (no light and the earphones are loose fitting inside iPod)

My earphones arent recognised by my iPod touch, no red light, does anyone know what to do?

If the earphones work in other devices but not your iPod you very likely have a worn-out or damaged jack in the iPod. There are third-party place that will replace the jack or you can do it yourself if so inclined.

Is your iPod configured to sync these tracks? How do you have your iPod set up to sync music from your iTunes library?

I just bought a new iPod touch 5g and the buttons are all loose and it charges to 100% in like 45 mins.

All the buttons work and stuff; however the volume and sleep/wake buttons don't click or feel tight enough to be new. The home button works fine though, but is loose. I have compared it to my friends and all theirs are tight and work fine. I bought my ipod at best buy. Im not sure they will replace it seeing as how I didn't buy insurance for it. Would the apple store replace it? ALL the buttons work, BUT are not tight. Also the battery charges way too fast (45 min). What should I do. Will it be okay? Help please.

Based on posts here, the loose buttons seem to be normal. Also, other users have report similar "fast" charging. That usually resolve after a number of charge/discharge cycles.
If y are concerned, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My ipod when i cut it on shows the ITunes icon and the usb plug icon on my ipod screen. so I plugged it into my computer and when it took me to the Itunes menu it says I needed to reinstall the proram to the manufactures settings and upgrade. My Ipod appears to be whiped clean. I does nothing now. It didnt reinstall or upgrade at all. I have 2 Ipods and I think things got crossed up with them.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

You should be able to recover the media with the tips in this post from forum regular Zevoneer but I'm not sure what the implications are for your application settings. You can probably transfer your purchases into a newly authorised library, backup the device, recover any other media using third party tools, then restore the device from the backup. That should switch the assocation of the device to the new library but it is not something I've personally tested.
When you get it all working, make a backup!

My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer.

My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer. It has worked great for many days until today.
I’ve tried two different Apple cables.
I’ve tried different USB ports on the computer.
I have rebooted both the Mac and the iPod.
I’ve wiggled the cables and checked for dust in the connectors.
The iPod charges using this same cable connected to wall wart. That’s a good sign.
Both the Mac and iPod seem to work fine separate from each other. They just won’t talk anymore.
Mac mini
1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo
OS 10.4.11
iTunes 9.2.1
iPod Touch 32GB, version 3.1.3 (7E18), model PB533LL

I found this possible solution on another support thread, so I tried it.
turn off iPod
hold Sleep and Home buttons to start it.
When Apple appears, let go of Sleep button, but keep holding Home button.
When screen goes blank, let go of Home button.
Connect cable and check iTunes to see if it has conencted.
This did not work for me.
I then turned off the iPod, restarted the Mac, and restarted the iPod normally.
I connected them with the cable, and it works like normal. :-)

I have a 5th gen ipod and recently all of my video podcasts stopped showing up in my ipod. They still show up and play in itunes, just not in my video podcast list on my ipod. All of the podcasts are Quicktime Large.

I have a 5th gen ipod and recently all of my video podcasts stopped showing up in my ipod. They still show up and play in itunes, just not in my video podcast list on my ipod. All of the podcasts are Quicktime Large. For some reason my ipod has stopped supporting Quicktime Large. Now I've had to redownload every video podcast as Quicktime Small.
Anyone have any ideas whether this is from the the software version 1.3 and if they'll fix it in the next update?

I'm having same problem, but QT Small videos are also not getting synced.

I deleted all my playlists provided. However, they are still on my Ipod Touch. Now, when I sync my Ipod with Itunes then the lists are copied back into Itunes?

A playlist takes up almost no room. A few kB at most.
It is simply a list of songs in the library
Do you want the playlists or not?

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.
- 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.

Hi bunjamin,
just go to BlackBerry World, and update all your apps including BBM.

you can turn off the magnifying glass :

you can deactivate the "reset to Hub view" :
hub >> overflow (bottom right button) >> Settings >> Display and actions >> Return to Default View When Idle >> OFF

I've had a Samsung network extender for over a year and it's been great. About a week ago, my iPhone 5 stopped connecting to it. I've never had problems with this. All the lights on the extender are blue, so it seems it's working fine. Any suggestions

Oh no! Lets ensure that you are connected. Have you tried to reset the Network Extender? Are other devices able to connect to the Extender? Is your Internet service up and running?

HT1212 My ipod is disabled and the message requests to try again in 223004 minutes. I think it might have something to do with the date being set wrong before it went into disabled mode. Can you assist in enabling.

You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it. If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.
