HT1435 My iPod mini's battery dies within about 30 seconds. What's up with that?

What it says up there.

That's a pretty good sign that the battery is completely shot and in need of replacing.  Not suprising since it's an iPod Mini and those have been out for a number of years now.
You can choose to have Apple replace the battery for a flat fee, send it to a third party service to have them do the job for a little less, or for even less you can buy a new battery for it and swap it out yourself.

  • I updated my iphone 4 to IOS6.1, battery dies within 90mins fully charged and the phone is buring hot.  Pls help!

    I have updated my iphone 4 (AT&T 3G) last week to IOS6.1, battery dies within 90 mins fully charged, and the phone gets really hot!  What's the fix?  Pls help!

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Is something wrong with the new software update. My battery dies within 4 hours. There are also problems with my e-mail accounts. Can someone help me?

    Have you attempted an iTunes restore and setting up as a new device? Sometimes battery life issues can be caused by corrupted iOS software.

  • Just bought the iphone,battery dies within a day.anyway to get the apps not to run when i am not using them?

    just bought my iphone, and the battery dies within one day.  Is there anyway to get the apps not to run when i am not using them to save my battery

    Yeah. Double tap the home button and the screen will shift upwards to show all your running apps. Just press and hold one until they start 'wiggling' then press the 'no entry' like sign that appears in the top left corner of the apps. That'll close them and release the memory and resources they're taking up

  • I have a MacBook Pro made in mid 2009.  A fully recharged battery dies in about 2 hours.  Is this a systems issue or do I have to replace the battery.  The battery has about 100 cycles on it.

    Try a SMC reset:

    If this is an original battery, even with a low cycle count, it is old and probably should be replaced.

    Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

    I assume u guys don't understand what open source software is
    Yes, I think most of us do understand what open source software is. It sounds as if you don't. Here's some information:
    Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved forcopyright holders are provided under an open-source license that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.
    Open source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-sourcedevelopment and often compared to (technically defined) user-generated content or (legally defined) open content movements.

    Yes, Tom Wu of Stanford wrote a paper on something called Secure Remote Access Protocol. It's a form of Asymetric Key Exchange and has nothing to do with hacking anything. It's actually intended to protect data.

    The ITC has given permission for the telcos to use 4g to mean any network that is significantly faster then 3G.
    Yep. Gotta love how they caved on that one. Actually, the original spec called for 100Mbps transfer rate when mobile. If you were stationary (not hopping between cells) the spec called for 1Gbps.

  • IPod Mini weak battery & warranty

    My iPod mini has a very weak battery and will hold for about an hour. The question is, if i turn it in for support, will they replace the battery or send a new iPod? And they discontinued the mini, will i get another mini?

    If you send it in and they determing the battery to be defective, they will replace your mini with another mini (most likely a refurbished one).

  • Ipod mini freezes and dies

    My ipod mini, which I have had since January 2004, has recently started freezing during songs and then completely shutting off. When it freezes the music coming out of the ear buds sounds like a scratched CD and then a moment later it will completly freeze and shut off. When the ipod mini does shut off, the only way I can restart it is if I hold down the menu and select buttons on the click wheel (it won't respond to plugging into a power outlet or my computer). Also, when it does shut down, there is plenty of battery, so i figured that that was not the problem.
    I went to the apple store and they told me to restore the ipod mini to its original factory settings and that didn't work. I also read a post on this forum that said to hit the back of the ipod when it begins to skip and freeze. That did not work either. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    yes i have the same problem!
    but i've had my ipod for only 5 days!!
    and it's a new one because the previous one had the same problem, so i got a new one instead.
    which ***** because it's broken !!
    aaargh !!

    Trying to restore my old ipod mini to factory settings, so I can recycle it. But it is locked with my old password, long forgotten. Do I have to reset my current pw & will that unlock my old mini if I do? Would appreciate detail. Thank you.
    PS: It was windows based, I'm now on imac.

    I've tried a lot of the stuff mentioned at that link and elsewhere, modifying host files etc. trying to downgrade my iPhone 4 back to 5.1.1 no luck , apple has locked up 5.1.1 for my phone and iPad . one post said I'm "stuck with iOS 6" darn I should have been more careful. I have the 5.1.1 Ispw on my MacBook its a permissions thing I don't understand. I'll post when I find a way around it and I will . iOS 6 took away most of my AirPlay functionality . to hek with iPhone 5 I'm starting to look at android. big bummer apple

  • My ipod mini wont turn on at all no matter what i try

    I've tried toggling the hold button while holding down the menu and select buttons, and i've tried a few other things that i have been told to in the situation that my ipod wont turn on, but none of them will work. right now it's hooked up to the usb cable on my computer, and it has been for the last couple days. i think all this might be because ive been too lazy to click eject before i unhook it a couple of times before, but i dont know.

    I've tried toggling the hold button while holding down the menu and select buttons
    It seems you are not performing the reset correctly. Don't worry about the hold switch...just press and hold menu and select simultaneously for about 6 seconds until you see the Apple logo appear. If you have an AC adapter, plug the iPod into the wall socket using this and then try the reset.
    i think all this might be because ive been too lazy to click eject before i unhook it
    Bad idea! You should always eject it properly or you risk corrupting the hard drive...it would be a shame to have to fork out for another iPod just because of laziness!

    I have a 4th gen. Itouch wiht IOS4 and i want to update it, but when i click the update button in ITunes it says "contacting IPod software server" and it looks like it is loading. However, after about 5 seconds it stops and says "ITunes could not connect to the IPod software server". I found the apple webpage that is supposed to help me, but when i went to the LAN settings in the control panel i found that 'Automatically detect settings" was already checked. I do not know what to do, Please help.

    If yo mean the iPod will not connect to your wifi network:
    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Do other devices now connect?
    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.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
