Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $149. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
The following will void the remainder of the warranty
A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

Replace the screen yourself if you are up to it

The other day I dropped my ipod touch and the screen cracked and my warranty is up how do I get it fixed. Do I buy a screen and bring it to Apple to repair od do I have to repair it. Please help me
Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair". Some places also will sell parts and instructions for doing the repair yourself, but the connectors and parts are delicate and it's easy to cause further damage, so attempt this only if you are confident in your skills.

i dropped my ipod touch in the street and there is a large crack in the screen can i take it to the apple store and pay to have it fixed there or do i have to send it out?
They can fix it at the Apple Store. I wish you could get it fixed for free, but the warranty doesn't cover accidents like this . It sounds like you understand this, I just want to make sure you know.

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I dropped my ipod touch and its shattered in the corner but there are multiple cracks along the whole screen everything works perfectly but I was wondering if the Apple Store in Brent Cross, London, would be willing to swap it or change it at no expense. Does anyone know about this store from experience or.....? It looks ugly now and I hate it please help and reply, for everyone living in North London going though the same problem or maybe will do in the future.
Thankyou that information was very helpful. And I was aware that the one year limited warranty does not cover accidental damage but it turned out that specific store did take back my iPod touch and covered the cost. Due to the fact my iPod wasn't even a year old. Although if it were to happen again I would have to pay about £130 to cover the cost. Apple Customer Service is amazing and they treat the customers really well.

I dropped my ipod touch and now it wont charge
I dropped my ipod touch and now it wont charge. When I plug it in to charge it just keeps going off and on.
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

i wanted to ask whether the camera for ipod touch comparable to a digital camera? if not are there apps available that can turn it into a digital camera? i want to buy an ipod touch and i like photography....what should i do? plz suggest
The iPod touch has a very rudimentary camera. It has only a 0.6 MP resolution, no optical zoom, no flash, etc. There is no app that can improve this as it is limited by the hardware. So it is not a replacement for a digital camera (nor even for an iPhone whose camera has a 5.0 MP resolution.

My daughter dropped her iPod Touch on cement and shattered the screen. It still works, but I am afraid it won't for long. I do not want to attempt a repair myself...does the Apply Store do this type of replacement/repair and for how much? I spent over $300 on this thing and I'm not buying another one. Thanks.
The home owner's policy may so give it a shoot.
The apple warranty which only covers material defects does not cover abuse which is what Apple will classiy dropping it as.

I dropped my iPod touch and the screen cracked. Can I get it repaired?
Today I dropped my iPod. Then realized the screen cracked. So. Is there any way to get it repaired or back? my mom didn't pay the insurance and she bought my iPod touch (the new one with both cameras) at best buy. But can apple store
Still fix it if my iPod touch is bought from best buy and no insurance? I'm really upset. I need help. :(You can try taking it back to best buy and see what they'll do. The apple store policy is that accidental damage isn't covered by the warranty, and dropping it counts as accidental damage.
