Has anybody else had an iPod touch battery go into "deep discharge"? The only way to get it out of "deep discharge" is to connect to a Mac computer to charge it. Mine was only 6 months old when it happened, and cost $80 AUS to recharge. Rubbish batteries!

Has anybody else had an iPod touch battery go into "deep Discharge"? Mine did after 6 months use, Mains charger did not work, computer charger did not work, so took it for repair under warranty. I was then told about "deep discharge" , and it has to be connected to a Mac computer to recharge again. This cost me $80 AUS. It does not say much for iPod batteries, especially if you don't have a Mac to charge it if it happens again. In fact it sounds like a fundamental flaw in the product......

There are other repair companies for the touch/iPhone. Google them, you might find a lower price.

  • HT204380 I have 8 mb of broadband and am unable to use facetime as it loses the connection. The same happens with Viber. This seems to have happened since the last software update. Has anybody else had this problem.Regards, Kevin

    I have 8 mbs of broadband but it does not seem to be adequate for using Facetime or Viber. I lose the connection via Facetime every few minutes and Viber doesn't work at all. It always says that the network connection is poor yet it's showing a full signal on the phone. It was a lot better before the last software update. has anybody else had this problem.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

    You disrespected me initially. I am certainly not the first person in this community to have asked a question that has already been asked. A little patience or perhaps ignorining the question without getting bent out of shape and responding rudely.

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers

  • My Macbook Mavericks pro does connect well to a data projector, even after following the process recommended, what is the optimum display settings? Has anybody else had this problem, I'm close to going back to PC's

    You said " digital AV Adapter and thunderbolt". Do you mean Thunderbolt/min displayport to HDMI adapter?
    It appears you are using the free version of the Display Menu app.
    What does the Apple Display properties show? System Preferences>Displays>Display show?
    Look at the projector/go to the manufacturer's support site and find the native resolution of the projector.
    Googling for Sori data projector id not produce any hits

  • How do I get an iPod touch to turn on other than the normal way. It has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. Have tried holding the HOME button down for 30 sec. but that didn't work.

    How does one get an iPod nano to turn on other than the "normal" way? This one has been dropped and all I can get is a blank screen. I have tried holding down the HOME button to restart it but no go. When I connect it to my computer, I am told to enter the PASSCODE which I cannot do as there is no touchpad.

    David ..
    Your topic refers to an iPod touch
    Then you say:  How does one get an iPod nano to turn on ......
    If it's an iPod touch, try a reset.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, whether it's an iPod nano or touch, it probably needs service >  Apple - Support - Service Answer Center

  • Has anyone else had this iPod problem?

    My parents got me an 80 gb iPod Classic for Christmas in 2007. In April or May I noticed that my middle button seemed loser than usual, but it still worked, so I didn't think much of it. Then at the very end of May, my button got stuck. I sent it in to the service center on June 1, and got it back on June 12. I played with it the night I got it back, and then again on June 20. The last time I played with it, I was playing Solitare; I didn't even get through a whole game before my middle button was stuck AGAIN.I have a classmate who had this problem, and I was wondering if anyone else had.

    No one has had this issue? I go to Itunes store.  Open a music file to download and it will gives me the opprotunity to buy every song but the album and songs that go with the album only.  HELP

  • Has anybody else had the problem with the wifi option being greyed out? I need to know how to fix it??

    I recently updated my phone software to iOS 6.1.3 and for the first couple of weeks, it was ok. but then until monday, the option to turn on the wi-fi has been greyed out so I can't turn my phone's wi-fi on which means I have to keep using my 3G coverage which will eventually cost me a fortune if I don't get the wi-fi greyed out problem sorted out as soon as possible. If anybody could help me with this problem (without having to take it apart or putting it into the freezer) please let me know as soon as possible.
    Thanks

    I have seen a few searches that indicate some people have had success by changing their wifi security settings.  Using none (not recommended) or using WPA2 with a strong pass phrase (longer than 8 characters) seems to work for everyone I've talked to.  I've not had this issue myself on any of my devices (2 iPhone 4, 2 iPhone 5, 2 iPad 2, all running iOS 6.1.3, and 2 iPod Touch 3rd Gen running iOS 5.1.1), but then again, my home wifi has had a strong pasphrase, and WPA2 for 7-8 years now.  I beleive that some people have had luck with performing a reset of network settings (but others have not, and claimed that it actually made things worse some how).  Some have had luck performing a device restore in iTunes, while others have claimed that did nothing but cause them to lose everything. 
    I know there is so much wifi congestion in my neighborhood that it is hard to find a channel that doesn't already have 2-3 routers using it.  It is possible that resetting your wifi router might help.  I know that when my iPhone wouldn't connect to my wireless network, it would usually clear up if I restarted the router.

  • Has anybody else had a problem with being charged 2 or 3 times by itunes?

    They have done this twice within the last 3 weeks and they are refusing to refund me for the 2nd overcharge.  The reason???->  They just gave me a refund for an overcharge.
    What kind of sense does that make?  I should be refunded no matter how many time they OVERCHARGE me.  So, I'm wondering how many people a day they actually cheat like this and how much money they actually make cheating people by deducting unauthorized funds from their account.
    When I buy my next tablet or smartphone, it will definitely not be an Apple product.  I'm sick of dealing with these gangsters!

  • Has anybody else had any problems running Kaspersky Internet Security 2015?

    I recently installed Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 on both my Macbook and iMac. Since installing it my system runs so incredibly slow that I had to turn it off. I am awaiting a response from their support but in the meantime I would like to know if anybody else has used this product and if so did you have any problems running it.

    Telling people antivirus is not needed on a mac is  an ignorant comment.
    Actually it is a very knowledgeable comment
    How does Mac OS X protect me? 
    <http://www.thesafemac.com/mmg-builtin/>
    The problems you are having are typical of the complaints we see with 3rd party anti-malware products on a Mac.  Many of the long term forum contributors have been using Macs since the previous century (I started in '88).  Many of them are also computer professionals for their day jobs (or before they retired).
    We are NOT parroting the company line.  We have been paying attention to the features in Mac OS X, and the lack of virii on Mac OS X, the performance complaints from users with anti-malware products installed, as well as the kernel panics from anti-malware products.
    The current biggest problem on Mac OS X are browser scareware pop-ups, adware, and trojans that trick users to install them.  And so far, none of the anti-malware products seem to have protected Mac users from the adware and trojans.

  • Ipod Touch Battery is Drained even with the Ipod Turned off? and how long the batery goes on Stant Mode?

    Hy ;D I bought an Ipod touch 4G 3 mouth ago , and recently the i noticed that the battery is drained even off .... is that normal? I turn him off( with the red bar) and put out side the bed , when i Wake up tha batery is about 80% ... (no Wi-Fi on)
    And How long the ipod battery goes with the stant mode ?
    Thanks alot for any one

    I did a test on mine.
    My 4th generation model running 4.3.1 last 10 days on and in sleep mode.
    At the end of 10 days I got the 20% low battery warning.
    I would try a RESET on yours.
    Hold down the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
    It will reset and restart itself in a few minutes.
    See if that helps.
