How many years can an Ipod Touch last?

Hello,
I have a year old 16g 2nd Gen Touch. Was wondering how many years
an Ipod Touch will last for. I realize you only get a certain amount of
charge cycles but was hoping that my Touch would last for a few years or more.
I realize that due to the nature of this device I will not be getting the same
number of years that my Nintendo DS has (still working fine after being
almost 5 years old). I also charge my Ipod Touch daily due to the fact that I use
the wifi and play games. I make sure to turn off the wifi when not using wifi but usually do not get much battery usage on a charge due to using it just for those
2 things. I did not get the extended warranty. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Like already mentioned, there really isn't a definitive answer to your question. I also have several iPod models (2 2nd gen nanos, 1 1st gen nano, 1 shuffle, 1 30 GB Classic, and a 3rd gen iPod Touch). Since the Touch is only 1 day old I can't say how it will hold up, but all of my iPods are still working, although the 1st gen nano has horrible battery life at this point. All of them are at least 2 years old. Until earlier this year I also had a iPod Mini that was still working and it has been years since they made that model. There are too many factors to consider when it comes to trying to predict the life span of your iPod.

How many years will an ipod touch's battery last before it needs replaced?

How long will the battery last?

It depends upon how much you use it. Apple says the battery should withstand 400 full charge/discharge cycles and still maintain 80% of original capacity.
The worse you can do is let the battery full discharge and leave it and to always leave it connected to a charger. Apple recommends almost fully discharging and fully charging monthly.

How many decibels can the iPod Shuffle (4th generation) go up to?

Hi! How many decibels can the iPod Shuffle (4th generation) go up to?

Hi pce55,
If you have questions about iPods and sound or decibel output, you may find the following pages helpful:
Apple - Sound and Hearing
Q. How can I set the Volume Limit on my iPod to a specific decibel level?
A. The Volume Limit setting lets you change the maximum output of your iPod’s headphone jack. The actual sound pressure level that you experience depends on several factors: the music you’re listening to, how it was recorded and encoded, the type of earbuds or headphones you use, and their placement in your ears.

How many years can I expect to get out of a MBP?

Hi All,
I'm considering an Apple laptop. Being a graphics professional, I think I want to go with the MPB so I can run the Adobe CS4 Suite (et. al.) while away from my desk.
How many years of useful life should I expect to get (or plan to get) from a laptop? Barring any hardware failures or accidents, can I expect it to reasonably run CS4(+), OS10.5(+), font manager, etc., and connect to the internet etc. for say, 4-5 years? What's reasonable for a laptop's useful life?
Would I want to purchase the fastest processor(s) and biggest HD in the MBP? I'm thinking the 15-inch 2.66Ghz, 250G 7200rpm HD. Heck, my G5 only has 150G on its HD, and the dual 2Ghz non-Intel chip. Purchased in '04, it seems to still have quite a bit of life to it.
Thanks in advance for your advice--D
Or, should I consider something less powerful that can augment my desktop? I just want to be able to get away from the office every once in a while and still get some work done.

Leopard requires at least a PowerPC G4 processor at 867MHz or faster, meaning G4 towers released prior to 2001 (and select models into 2002) don't meet the spec.

Ah, I see. Yep, got it in early 2000.
{quote}
One question there, though - your G4 desktop was upgradeable, but did you upgrade yours? Add anything to those expansion bays? Put in a larger HDD? If you answer no to those questions, consider the fact that you may not ever upgrade a desktop you purchase in the future.
{quote}
Excellent point. I never upgraded the chip or anything, and eventually decided not to update/add to any of the memory (HD or RAM) because I felt I'd get better bang for my buck with a newer/faster machine altogether. I recently resurrected it to hook it up to our new TV to see if we could watch downloaded movies on it, which is what generated that whole conversation about it only being able to handle Tiger, as it's got 10.2 and needs to be updated to interface adequately with the Big Bad Internet World.
My G5 has become sluggish lately, and although I added another 2G of RAM it doesn't seem to affect it much. Back on topic, I wonder if I get the laptop will I grow tired of it or will it grow too slow in less time than the current desktop...
As eww so rightly points out in his reply, I guess I have to decide if I want the latest-greatest on my laptop, or can I live with using versions that the computer can handle. And, do I shell it out for the fastest/baddest, or will I get the same longevity (or lack) with the middle of the road machine.
For my professional software, my strategy has been to upgrade every other time, unless there's some new feature that will make my life absolutely heavenly. It seems like Adobe is slinging out the new versions faster than my budget can handle. Last summer I finally updated to the latest from Office v.X. And the only reason I did that is because my clients have been sending me text files in the latest Win versions of Office (docx and pptx) that I couldn't open. (And it's not good customer service to ask them to save them as txt files and resend.)
Typical scenario:
On my G5 I'm still using Tiger because I'm too cheap to buy the upgrade. (Every time I upgrade my OS I lose something--printer drivers, favorite features in my browser, font manager compatibility, whatever, there's always something I else need to upgrade besides the OS, always.)
Although I'm running Adobe CS3, I have the CS4 suite. CS4 will run on 10.4.11, but the font manager's auto-activation doohickey (which I would have to buy) for CS4's apps only works with OS10.5. So things potentially could get expensive. The only reason I have CS4 is because I bought CS3 a week before CS4 came out. The font manager (Suitcase) is really a lifesaver, and therefore it's pretty necessary. STOP the madness! LOL! (There's another font manager out there that is pretty good and cheaper, so that may be an option.)
Okay, I'm babbling now. I appreciate your wise words to guide my thinking. Time to get nose to grindstone so I can afford that nifty laptop!
Thanks--d

How long does the average iPod touch last?

Not the battery, I mean the actuall iPod. How long does the average one last before it dies? How many hours?

Judging from this support site, the average iPod lasts until it falls into a toilet.
Each of my first, second, and third generation iPod Touch models are still working flawlessly. That's thousands of hours. Like Macs, they typically become functionally obsolete before any particular hardware failure ends their life.

How many songs can the ipod shuffle hold

I have about 250 songs and I just need to know how many songs this will hold

How many years does the Ipod nano batery life last?

I want to know how long does The nanos battery live?

Hola Monica,
Creo que no me he explicado bien, lo de dejar el nano en repetición aleatoria lo hice para probar la duración de la batería en reproducción continua (en mi caso unas 10 horas este pasado fin de semana). Lógicamente cuando voy por la calle me apetece ir cambiando de tema/autor o ver mis fotos, o cualquier aplicación del aparato y eso si, con la luz del display encendida ya que apagada no se ve nada.
Haz la prueba y cuéntame, carga totalmente el nano, mira la hora de tu reloj y apunta la hora, enciende el nano en reproducción aleatoria y déjalo... a ver cuanto dura (yo lo hice por la noche a las 24h y a las 10 horas del día siguiente aún funcionaba...). Eso si, cuando lo llevo conmigo por la calle no me dura ni 6 horas..... Pero, para que quiero las opciones si me pongo a mirar fotos, cambio de temas con la luz encendida y no me dura nada la batería... Pienso yo que es como ponerle a un Ferrari que gasta 20 litros de gasolina a los 100 kilometros un depósito de 10...
Un saludo y haz la prueba (ya me contarás).
P.D. Y lo de la temperatura en el momento de carga, en mi humilde opinión, creo que es una chorrada... quien va a estar a cero grados cargando un Ipod????? que no se ofenda quien lo haya puesto, pero a esa temperatura lo que menos me importa es escuchar música y menos en cargar la batería de un Ipod... ;-))
Saludos!

How many films can the ipod carry

Hello,
is their an amount of how much is dedicated to films alone.
I have a few films to add but my ipod 80gb does not eccept all
Do ihave to change any settings for it to be larger on having movies?
thank you for a quick responce i am going on holiday and wanna take six films
3gb
kad

obviously it depends on how long the films are and how they are compressed. the ones it does not accept could be because they are not in mp4. i should think it should take 6 quite easy as I have a 30 gb with 3000 tunes and 4 films and still space.
