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.

  • IPod nano got wiped, now it won't work on my iTunes

    Hi, I went home for the holidays, got a new CD and attempted to put it on my iPod at my parent's house using their iTunes. After the attempt, my iPod got totally wiped, all the music is completely gone. So I restored it. Now that I am back home, when I connect it to my iTunes, it recognises it, but it won't let me drag any music from my iTunes to myiPod.....so I can't put any music on it!!! What do I do??

    Connect your iPod and make sure that the "manually manage songs and videos" box in the Summary tab is checked. Your iPod has most likely defaulted to auto-sync after the restore. Check the box and click Apply, you should be able to drag songs to the iPod after that: Managing content manually on iPod

  • Ipod Nano Error 1417 Tried and won;t work

    I've tried looking through the restart method, the disconnect and reconnect method, and nothing works. My Ipod Nano is Ver. 1.0, and the update process does not pop up with a dialogue box, all it does is 'updating' but it's really doing nothing, help?

    are you still at an itunes version 7.0.0.70, Chang?
    to check, go "help > about itunes" and wait for the version number to scroll up from the bottom of the screen.
    if you've still got a 7.0.0.70, first try an upgrade to 7.0.1.8:
    iTunes 7.0.1.8 Installer
    if you still get the 1417 when using 7.0.1.8, let's get your iPod Updater logs to the Apple engineers for a look.
    Open this folder:
    C:\Documents and Setings\yourusername\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Updater Logs
    (You may need to show hidden files in order to see the Application Data folder. Open up My Computer, and in the Tools menu, choose "Folder Options..." Then go to the View tab, and then in the "Advanced settings", select "Show hidden files and folders.")
    Send the files inside the iPod Updater logs folder as attachments to this email address.
    In the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
    - A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
    - The username you are using in the thread
    - The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
    - A concise description of the issue you are seeing
    - The exact text of the error message you are seeing

I also tried switching USB port and restrating my PC but still won't work, my iphone is still stuck on the "connect to itunes" screen. I even tried to reset my iphone by holding the power and home button for 10sec but it  didn't work.
    I'm all out of ideas on how i can fix it. Could anyone please help me with this problem?
    Thanks.

  • IPod Nano and my hard drive won't work on my G3....Why!?!

    Hey everyone.
    I'm home from college, and I didn't want to take my iMac with me. Luckily, I have been using an older G3 iBook. It works fine, but when I tried to plug in my iPod Nano, it doesn't recognize it. I didn't bring my Nano install disk. Is there another way to get the computer to recognize the Nano?
    Also, I brought my external Hard Drive home so I have my music collection with me. On my iMac, I have no problem. I plug it in via USB, and it works fine. But again, my G3 iBook doesn't recognize the external hard drive. Now...I'm stuck at home with no music....HELP!

    If you have an older version of OS, then you will be unable to download the newest version of itunes. In that case, the best bet is to restore the ipod.

  • Ipod nano 2 generation right headphone won't work, issue with jack (several headphones were tried)

    For some reason, my ipod nano 2nd generation, doesn't play music through one of the headphones. i tried several pairs of headphones. but just one will work. any suggestions? obviously out of warranty

    You'll need to replace the headphone jack in the Nano, you can send it off to a 3rd party repair site (http://www.iresq.com) or buy the part and do it yourself (http://www.ifixit.com).

  • IPod nano gen 4 forward button won't work, and the hold switch won't either.  I've tried restoring it and it didn't fix the problem. Any suggestions?

    The forward button won't work and the hold switch doesn't either.  I tried restoring it, but that didn't work.

  • I downloaded some songs to my ipod touch 5G and now headphones won't work properly.

    So I bought some songs from Jessie J a couple of months ago and today I completed the album. After all the songs had downloaded I tried listening to them through my headphones, but no sound was coming through. I can get some sound if I twist them around, but the sound is not consistent. This is not happening with just the new songs, but old songs and other apps. Sound is working fine without the headphones plugged in.  I have no problems like this before but the headphones are relatively new as I lost my previous pair. My ipod touch is about 5 months old.
    What can be done to fix this? Any help or suggestions is appreciated.

    First confirm there is not a problem with the headphones
    Then
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • I just got the Ipod nano about 3 weeks ago. It worked great up untill today. It would not turn on, or connect to my computer. I called the apple company, and the said it was defaulted, and to send it in and they would replace it. Will I get a new one?

    I just got the ipod nano about 3 weeks ago. It worked great up untill today. It would not turn on, or connect into my computer. I took it back to best buy and they said it had a defulted battery, and that I needed to call the company. So I did and they had me send it in. Will they send me a new ipod, or a refurbished one. I havn't even had the ipod long enough, and I paid good money for it. I'm hoping to get a new one, because it wasn't my fault.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 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.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB one and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours. The cracked screen voids any warranty you had on the iPod.

  • Ipod Nano 4th or 5th generation won't recognize Itunes and shows loading constantly when I am on Nike plus

    My Ipod Nano all of a sudden won't show up on my Imac computer nor will it show up in Itunes.  I use it for running and I use the Nike + software, at the same time the recognition problem occurred when I click on the Nike + on my Ipod Nano it shows the circle and says "Loading".
    Also when I plug it in to the computer it says Connected do not unplug unless you eject, however there is no icon on my Imac to eject.
    Even when I reboot the Ipod Nano, the same thing happens...the Nike + just says loading and it doesn't get recognized by my Imac.
    Help what do I do????? I have tried rebooting several times, as well as using another mac and no luck. I even sent an email to Apple but so far no answer.  Any clue how to fix this?
    I think it has something to do with the Nike+ application, but don't know what to do.
    Thanks!
