I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, what should i do?

I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, I honestly think this is out raging because i spend over $200 on this. To have for music and instagram. I use it about an hour a day, but i've only been using it for about 3 months although i've had it since December. Any suggestions that may help me?

Try:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: 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
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My Ipod touch got a drink spilt on it and now it won't hold the charge or stay connected to the internet.

About two days ago a drink that was about 1/4 full spilt in my purse. My IPod touch managed to get wet and the battery will not hold the charge anymore. I can let it charge all night then use it for about 30 minutes in the morning to check my Facebook and what not, but if I keep it on the hold button which I always do all day while I am at work, the battery is completely dead when I go to use it later on. Or it will die after about an 1 or so of use after being taken off the charger. Another thing is that when I am up in my room about around 150 feet or so maybe even less, away from my families internet router, I cannot connect to the internet. And if I get it it goes away in about 5 minutes of use. The only way I can use the internet on it is if I sit at the top of my stairs or stay downstairs. Never had this problem before. The camera on the front of my IPod above the screen also has some water in it. Half of the camera on that side comes out blurry.
Any suggestions?
Thank you

I just purchased a new in factory sealed box ipod 5.5. I removed all from packaging and charged overnight. The battery won't hold a charge. How do I get a new battery under warranty for this NOS item?

I Just purchased a NOS ipod 5.5 brand new in factory sealed packaging from an apple dealer. I charged the unit overnight but the battery will not hold a charge. I read the Apple warranty and expect Apple to honor the warranty to the original end user purchaser (me). however I do not want to give up this iPod for a newer model because I love the sound from the Wolfson board. The newer iPods sound horrible and give me headaches. Does Apple still provide batteries for the 5.5 30 gb iPod? Or am I out of luck due to obsolescence? Thanks in advance!

I feel your angst, especially, knowing that Apple has become the most profitable company in the world, by selling us products that breaks down when the warranty run out, and crap service staff, who doesn't know anything about the iPod Classic, except offer to sell us refurbished iPod classic.
You can get the Battery replaced at 3rd Party store for less.
BTW, (most contributors might not agree with me) if you recharged your iPod everyday, it will be dead just 2 months after the warranty expires. My logic, the iPod battery will last for about 400 recharge cycles according to Apple Specs listed below
Charge Cycles
A properly maintained iPod battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 400 full charge and discharge cycles
So if your lifestyle is plugin in to car Audio dock, while driving, and plug in to home stereo while home, then it is 2-3 charge cycles per day.
But then you cant do anything about it, just switch to another media player.

Ipod nano got washed now battery won't work

My ipod got washed about awhile ago and I let it dry out for a few days and then connected it to my system with no visible problems. Except when I disconnected it the battery was very low and only lasted for a few minutes. Now I can't get any battery life at all eventhough the ipod works perfect when connected to the computer. Anybody have any ideas?

Well I'd leave it charging for a few hours and if it
still doesn't work then I hate to say this but it
will just be a very expensive paper weight. You'll
have to get another one if you want a new one if
charging it for a few hours doesn't work.
Before buying a new one, Google: ipod+repair
many choices for repair...
also, online Apple Store has refurb 2G 2GB nanos for $109.

3rd Generation iPod Touch battery won't hold a charge.

My 3rd Generation iPod touch has been very reliable for the past few years, but recently I've been noticing a decrease in its battery life. The battery will now, on a full charge, last about 4 hours on continuous usage. Is this normal? I recall it lasting longer before.
Thanks!

Very likely that the barger is wearing out. That happens with time/charge/discharge cycles. 4 hours is standar for an old iPod like yurs.

I pod classic battery dies (2n ipod classic that i've had to do this) and won't hold a charge. 1 month out of warranty. How do you get a company to make better products or have better warrantys?

Second time this has happened to an ipod classic that i bought (the last one I bought 14 months ago and it is out of apples warranty.) Battery won't hold a charge or even register when pluged into anything (wall charger, USB, mac book, etc.)
Apple is refusing to do anything except charge me $60 for a refurbished battery (let me remind you that I gave them $370 14 months ago for a brand-new (not refurbished) i pod classic.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this battery issue? The obvious answer is for apple to make a better product (2 ipod classics, 2 ipod classic battery die outs. the most recent purchase in a shocking 14months ago.) Better products or more realistic and forgiving warrantly policys.) I am NOT going to pay for the $60 swap out as Apple has taken enough money from this sucker (will never purchase another shoddy apple product again.)
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice? Shame on me for giving my $ to apple. THEY ARE A FAD COMPANY WHOSE PRODUCTS ARE PART OF A CULTURAL FAD---nothing real is in there (well SOMETHING was real and working for 14months.)

I think I washed and dried my iPod nano?

I won't know for sure until I get home later today, but I'm afraid I may have left my iPod in my pants pocket when I washed and dried them last night. Is all hope lost? Am I going to need to replace my iPod?

It's possible. Dryers can get pretty hot, depending on the setting you had it on.
Always check your pockets before putting clothes in the wash.

Got a refurbished iPod Nano 6th gen, and went to connect it to my PC,

Got a refurbished iPod Nano 6th gen, and went to connect it to my PC, it said it was configured to Mac and went to restore it and install software. Now shows white screen with little computer icon and warning sign. won't reset

By a reset, I assume you mean pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Volume Down buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear?
Can you try and force the Nano into Disk Mode and then connect it iTunes and restore it again?

Washed and dried my ipod, please help!

So I forgot my iPod was in my coat and I accidentally washed and dried it! I plugged it in and heard it beep a few times and it is recognized on my comp, but no songs are on it and there is nothing on the screen! Is it able to get fixed at all??

Why do people who drop electronics immediately plug them in to electricity? Just curious.
Set your Nano aside in a warm, dry place for about 3 days. Don't turn it on, don't use it. After this time connect it to power (a wall charger works best) and let it charge for at least 30 minutes. While it is still connected to power reset it (hold down the menu and center buttons for 6 seconds, may take a few tries) and then let it fully charge. If it is still not working, Restore it in iTunes.
If it still is not working after that you can send it to a 3rd party repair site such as http://www.iresq.com or Google for more. Or just buy a new one.

I have an iPod nano 2nd generation and I want to download the songs I have on it to my new computer, as my old one crashed with all the songs on it. I also got a new iPod and would like to transfer the old songs onto it. How do I do this?

Ok so sorry for clogging the community!! I figured it out - you have to copy your videos into itunes manually. I did that, synched and all good!

I got an iPod Nano for Christmas and loved it. Then the screen died. I got a replacement but it no longer repeats Playlists. Is it a setting I have to adjust to get it to repeat the entire Playlist?

Make an appointment at the genius bar.
If you went without an appointment, then it would make sense that you could be turned away.

I just got a ipod nano 6th gen, and ive been using it for 2 days, and it seems that the battery just lasts about half a day, on playing 1 to 3 songs in intervals of 1-2 hours. Whats wrong with my ipod?

Your nano would really have nothing to do with it at that point. It is really something between iTunes and whatever server out there on the internet that it is trying to connect to for the update.
Try posting this one in the iTunes forum, they might have a solution for you.
