How do you cool down the iPod touch

How and is it bad if you don't?

Like Kappy said, turn it off for a while, a couple of hours at least. How hot is hot? A little warm... or too hot to handle? If you bake your iPod you can damage the battery and circuits doing permanent damage. Have seen a couple posts where people have reported there iPod's started smoking (as I remember these were heavy gamers that refused to turn off the iPods) and one stated it started on fire; don't remember the circumstance. During prolonged heavy use, like long gaming sessions-- (activities that work the CPU hard) and charging, getting warm is normal. But if it is getting to hot to handle or a heat warning is popping up, you have a problem. Turn it off, allow it to cool down. If keeps reoccurring try resetting or Restoring to backup or Restore to new. If over heating continues contact Apple Genius Bar and have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

    ALl we can say her in this Apple forum s to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPOd.  Yu can try placing the iPod in recovery mode. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Otherwise you will have to go to elsewhere.  Jailbreaking voids the warranty and Apple will no longer help.

  • How can you tell if an iPod touch has the new apps?

    Having seen the updates to the ipod Touch I'm finally ready to buy one. From the keynote I gather that new units shipping from the factory after 15 Jan have the new software, old units do not and, unusually for apple, even if you buy an old software unit after the announcement, you don't get the software for free. Worse still, I'm in one of those countries they sell the touch, but don't have an iTunes store, so if I buy an old one, I'm stuck with it, cannot upgrade.
    Is there any way to tell from the box which version you have, change in part number, anything? I'm sure they aren't doing the M$ sticker approach "now with 1.1.3 and lots of new apps". The return policy out here in Singapore is basically you can't, so I need to figure out in the store if the box I'm buying is new, or old, and I have no clue at all how much stock is left out there.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello, 
    If you're going to buy in a real shop then why not have the retailer open the box for you. Especially if they don't do returns - that's a must.
    The next suggestion is a little more hit-and-miss but the fourth and fifth digits of the Serial Number are the week of production. If you get a week 02 or later it should be okay. Perhaps someone with a brand new one could confirm.
