IPod is all messed up

Hello,
last night I plugged in my ipod to my computer and charged it up, everything seemed normal..I left it plugged in over night, but when I tried to turn it on, nothing happened. So I reset it, and the battery was dead. I figured my computer must have turned off and the ipod was left on, so it used all the battery power...but noe really weird stuff is happening...
when I plug it back in, the battery icon says it is fully charged..when i unplugged it, it went back to very low battery power. Then the icon changed to look like it was charging, but it wasnt plugged in...the ipod keeps beeping at me. then a message popped up saying "the current attached acsessory is not supported by this ipod". again, it is not plugged into anything, and there are no headphones plugged into it. after this the battery icon looked fully charged. now it's back to very low. the light also keeps turning on and off without me doing anything. the music plays fine, and it is recognized by my computer....but i can't tell if it's charged or not. sometimes the battery icon just disappears...

will apple replace the battery for a fee even if they figured out that the ipod is acting this way because it was possibly damaged in some way? i have only had it since july 19 (but it was bought on july 11...it was a gift). i can't understand why apple would force me to buy a brand new ipod after only having it for a little more then one month, just because the battery needs replaced. though it might be more then the battery because it keeps beeping randomly..as though the power ran out...yet the ipod it still playing music.
heres the truth...i didnt post this because i didnt want anyone automatically telling me there is no hope before thinking about other ways to solve the problem. i accidently machine washed and machine dried my ipod in the pocket of my pants. im surprised it still works as much as it does!

My ipod is all messed up now

At first, some of the songs would not play and skip. I fixed the problem by removing the songs and putting them again on my ipod. Now my itunes will not play or pick a song in the middle and play it. I also have the '!', however, after i reset it, now there is a check mark telling me to disconnect the ipod and its already disconnected. Trying to restore the ipod did not work either.
I have no idea what to do.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

Please Help! My iPod is all messed up!

Hi,
I just updated my iPod & now When I search for music by "artist" or "album" I just get a list of the songs, just like when you choose "songs". Does anyone know how to fix this?
TIA,
Gina

Gina,
That's a weird one. Try a hard reset (holding menu and the select button). If that doesn't work, restore the iPod's software.

Moved iPod to new computer and now it is all messed up

Help! I just got a new computer and I tried to move my ipod to the new computer. I backed up my library to CDROM, then deauthorized the old computer and authorized the new computer. I loaded iTunes on the new machine and restored my library. Everything looked fine until I tried to put new songs on the ipod from a CD. The new songs showd up in the itunes library and they show up up as being on the ipod on the PC screen, but when the ipod was disconnected, they could not be accessed from the ipod. I tried all of the R's but it not only didn't solve the problem, but now nothing is on the ipod at all. When I connect the ipod, i get the setup assistant box and when I put the Ipod name and click ok, it says that it synced and itunes goes back to saying eveything is still there, even though it is not. Any suggestions?

using migration assistant (or any other shortcut to properly installing adobe programs) is problematic.
at this point, uninstall using the adobe uninstallers, if possible.
clean (Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6)
then properly install using the adobe installation files.

Itunes library rearranged itself...all messed up now!

Very weird problem happened to me with itunes. Last night I wanted to move a playlist from my ipod to my itunes. I have a program called TuneAid that does such a thing. I moved over a playlist with a hundred or so songs into my itunes library. The move seemed to go OK but when I started to play songs in my itunes library, I encountered a very strange problem...there are now hundreds of songs that have the wrong information for them.
The song information (title, artist, year, album, track number) is still in tact, but it is for the wrong song. For example, I clicked on a song by the Rolling Stones, but what played was a song by the Beatles. So I searched for the Beatles song that was playing and found it, but when I played that, a song by Billy Joel plays. I spent an hour or so renaming files but I think there are still a couple hundred left.
What's strange is not all the songs in my library were messed up. I have about 2000 songs, but only a large handful were messed up. The second thing is that it wasn't just the songs in the playlist that I transferred from my ipod that got messed up. Some songs that were not on my ipod now have the wrong metadata.
I tried to restore a previous itunes library, but that didn't work. All that did was put an exclamation point by the song where files could not be found. This helps me identify the songs with the wrong path but I do not know what that song is now labeled.
Hope this description. Is there any hope for me or do I have to rename all these files? Is there anything I can do with the XML file or the .itl files.
Thanks!

Mind if I wait around and see if you get an answer, cibt?
I can't fathom the iTs way of doing things - but not quite doing things. Are files Windows files of are they iTs? What job does the .itl file have? Is iTs just a series of pointers to (real) Windows files?
Can files be moved around Windows folders and be recognised by iTs, or is iTs a file manager too?
It's a dog's breakfast to me. Too clever by half. An entire system within another entire system. I'll be waiting..

My iPod Screen is Messed Up...

Ok, so I was running outside with the nano in my pocket. When I was finished, I took the iPod out of my pocket to listen to it. When I took the hold off, the screen turned on, and it was all messed up. My friend told me the ink went all the way to one side and it probably did. How do I get it back to normal??
Thanks

Hello there,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Your iPod's artwork cache may have become corrupt. I would suggest clearing it out and rebuilding it. To do this:
1. Plug the iPod in and when it appears in iTunes, click on its device name on the left pane of iTunes if necessary
2. Under the Music tab, remove the check mark next to “include album artwork on this iPod.”
3. Hit Apply to sync the updated changes.
4. After it has finished syncing, place the check mark back next to “include album artwork on this iPod” option.
5. Again, hit Apply to sync the updated changes.
6. Lastly, properly eject your iPod, and verify that the album artwork is correct.
Hope this helps.

Ipod consolidated all of my playlists into one

While updating Ipod consolidated all of my playlists into one. And I thought if I got rid of the super playlist it would have to go back to the regular system. The library and all the other playlists are still intact but now it says, "Ipod cannot update becasue there are no songs in the playlist." But there are songs there and there are songs in the library as well. What's wrong? What happened? What did I do wrong?

Open iTunes prefs -> iPod.
it should be set to Auto update only selected playlists.
Select the playlists you want to go onto the iPod.

After I reset my Ipod (deleted all data and settings) windows 7 doesn't recognize by ipod touch, and it doesn't appear in the itunes library or in the device menu, but it does charge. How can I get my computer to recognize it again?

I sync my purchase from store to ipod now all my music and games are gone why did this happen and how doi get them back?

i sync my purchases to my ipod now all my music is gone and my games are gone too how can i get them back?

You most likely synced your iPod to a different iTunes then you previously synced it with. You won't be able to get all of your music back unfortunately unless you had it backed up.
