IPod 5th Gen no longer has sound
Just recently my iPod (5th Gen) won't play any sound through headphones or dock. It shows that it's playing the music, but no sound comes out. I have done the usual Restore, etc. but it still won't work. Software is up to date. Running on Windows.
Any assistance will be appreciated. Thank you.
Does anyone have a cure? Please?

Ipod 5th gen taking long to restore from backup on itunes
I recently got an ipod 5th gen. I backed up my ipod 4th gen to my computer on itunes so i could use that backup on my ipod 5. when i did this it did not download my music or some of my apps. i put my ipod 5 in recovery mode so i can start the back up all over again but it is taking forever for it to restore from backup!! the time remaining says 7 hours then it changes to 8 or even 11 hours. does anyone have any idea what the problem is and what i can do to fix it?
Terminate the process.
Reboot the computer
Try again. you may have to place the iOS device in Recovery Mode to allow the restore -
Ive just bought an ipod 5th gen and it has find my ipod on it how can i get past it
hi all ive just bought an ipod 5th generation off ebay and it has find my ipod on it is there anyway off me getting around it as the seller isnt replying
No; the activation lock is an anti-theft measure, and Apple won't help anyone other than the original owner(assuming they're alive) bypass it.
Ask eBay for a refund.

My iTunes account no longer has everything on my iPod-5th gen. I want to put everything on my iPod on my iTunes on my new laptop without losing new purchases that are on the iTunes account or the old data on the iPod.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Sounds like you need a new battery. Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

Hi, my iPod (5th gen) has stopped appearing in iTunes...
Hi, my iPod (5th gen) has stopped appearing in iTunes when I plug it in, but is still visible on the desktop. Please help!
Are you running the latest version of iTunes (10.7)? Maybe try resetting the iPod with it still plugged into your Mac. To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
It might even help to do a low level reformat of the iPod's Hard Drive using Disk Utility. See this article for instructions.

im having a problem with my mic on my ipod 5th gen it works but it douse not pick up any sound unless I talk right next to the mic but it sounds low . how can i fix this
- Make sure the mic hole is clear and unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back by the camera lens(if has back camera). For the 16 GB one without the back camera the mic hole is on the top edge near the center.
- 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.

My iPod 5th gen touch went through the washing machine. It still works but it has water in the screen and I can't get it out. I put it in uncooked rice for a day but it didn't work. And suggestions??
Leave it in the rice for at least a day and change the rice every other day or so. The rice and iPod should be in a sealed container.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $149. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

I've had my iPod 5th gen for a few months now and out of nowhere the microphone has stopped working.
I've had my iPod 5th gen for a few months now and out of nowhere the microphone has stopped working. It won't pick up anything, I can't use it for recording, face time, siri or anything else. Every time I try and record and play it back its just all fuzzy, is there anyway of fixing it without having to send it off for repair?
- Make sure the mic hole is clear and unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back by the camera lens(if has back camera). For the 16 GB one without the back camera the mic hole is on the tope edge near the center.
- Open the Voice Memos app and see if you see movement on the VU meter needle with changes in noise level trying to be recorded.

I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library. Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod. How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

After I installed iOS 7.1, my iPhone 4s and iPod (5th Gen) stopped syncing with my 2014 Toyota Tundra Truck. Has anybody experienced this problem?
Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

My iPod 5th gen has been doing this for awhile, though it progressively got better over time, it still happens occasionally like when I'm out running. My iPod is never able to connect strongly to any WiFi network. All the WiFi networks keep disappearing and then coming back, and this is infuriating because it wont let me sign in to iTunes or IMessage at all or update my iPod easily. My date and time keeps getting off track and every time i set it back to normal it just gets messed up again. Now it wont let me connect to iTunes and receive push notifications. I tried logging out o my Apple ID on my phone but now it wont let me sign back in. WHAT IS GOING ON HELP PLEASE!?!?!

how do i unlock a ipod 5th gen that has activation on it and i got it with a broken screen and repaired in now it asks for a icloud sign in
There's no way around activation lock. If you purchased this from someone else you'll have to contact them and have them remove it from their account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515. Otherwise you won't be able to use it.
