Ipod not working properly

my ipod doesnot give power backup.everytime I have to reset the ipod in order to turn it on even though i charge it ovenight.sometimes even after reseting it dont turn on and if i use it for say 5 or 6 hrs. the battery gets very low with red mark.I am charging my ipod through my computer with operating system as Windows XP. Ihave installed latest software also.Please suggest something on this behaviour of my ipod.
thanks.

" When it is plugged into the computer it will charge but it will not connect to iTunes."
See these.
iPod appears in Windows Explorer but does not appear in iTunes.
iPod does not appear in iTunes.
Fast user switching in Windows XP is not supported.
Strange iPod behavior.
"The battery will only last for about two hours rather than the 16 hours it is supposed to last for"
It's supposed to last anywhere up to 16 hours, and that depends on how you use it. Try these.
Beef up my iPod battery.
How to accurately determine your iPod battery life.
"I had some movies i wanted to put onto it. When the movies were converted for iPod they lost all sound."
Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
Videora is one, and there are others.

  • Ipod not working properly after ios6 update

    I recently updated my ipod touch with the ios6 update, and now most of my apps wont open, and others shut down after a few seconds including the app store and itunes! is there any way of reversing the update? or fixing it without having to go to the apple store? 

    If the update does not work for you then do as I explained in my previous post and roll back to the previous driver. That philosophy can be applied to all updates.
    If there is no pressing or emergent reason to update and your PC or notebook is running just great... don't update. (that is especially true when it comes to a BIOS update)
    For your issue #2, the problem could be your wireless connection (hotspot, router or modem) that causes the dropped connection.

  • IPod not working properly...well, at all.

    Alright.
    I tried turning it on last night and it froze, then came up with the symbol with an iPod with an unhappy face on it and said "http://www.apple.com/support/ipod.
    I've tried resetting it, and it doesn't respond.
    It's making me pretty mad, any ideas?
    The same thing happened to my old iPod and I sent it in because I had a warranty, and apple says that it was because i dropped it too many times, which i have never done.
    If anybody could help, it'd be nice.

    arrg, i hear that lol
    i bought my ipod nano about 5 weeks ago and it just wont turn on, ive charged it in the car, on the wall, on the computer and even at the place i bought it (JB HI FI). i tried restarting turning on and off with hold on and off. it wont turn on and its so frustratin.
    so i got told to print a page and folow the links which i did but then found out i printed the wrong page and now it wont let me go back to print the right page. :@ so frustrated lol.
    ive never dropped mine either. i hope they will replace it.

  • The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

    The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

    - 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.

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

  • My IPOD classic headport is not working properly.  The sound is going in and out?

    My ipod classic headport is not working properly.  The sound keeps going in and out.  I have tried changing headphones and checking the settings.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    Do a Hard Reset
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    If the sound is still the same, but ok, coming from the bottom Dock connector, then try cleaning the headport, using a jet of air or some electronic cleaner.

  • IPod Touch Not Working Properly After Front Screen and Housing Replacement

    So my son left his iPod Touch 4th Gen on my back bumper and it fell off out in our dirt/gravel driveway.  I finally found it, 7 days later, run over multiple times.  Front screen and back housing were demolished as you can see, but it still worked fine (except rear facing camera was done).  Ordered the rear camera, front screen and back housing assemblies off eBay from reputable sellers.  Took it all apart and reassembled it. Bada bing! Everything was working fine: camera, speakers, touch screen, wi-fi, all of it, for about 2 days .  It went from working perfectly, to being kinda glitchy (had to hold home and power to restart), to not turning on at all.  I read somewhere that if you don't clean all metal to metal contacts, it may interfere and not work properly, so I just took it (almost) all apart again, cleaned the contacts, and it turned on and was working, but this time only for about half an hour.  I've held down the home and power buttons for long periods of time, which sometimes got it to work, but now is not working at all.  Any ideas on what might be going on??? Is the screen bad?  Did I maybe miss a metal to metal contact (e.g. the power button, ribbon cable)?  Any really important ones that you can tell me about?  I really don't want to take it into the Apple store, but if I do, any ideas on a ruff guesstimate on what it's gonna cost me?  Thanks for any help!  I really appreciate it, I'd love to get this thing working for my 7 year old so I can have my d*** phone back!

  • Notes are not working properly after 3.0 update, iPod touch

    Since the update, my Notes have not worked properly. I had 3 active notes. Two, I've tried to close and can't. One, I can't access. I also can't save a new note, it kicks me out to the home screen if I try to. I also get kicked back to the home screen when I try to access my third active note. Anyone else experience this?

    First connect your your device with iTunes.
    You can try to delete your backup data for you iPhone/iPod touch. The backups are placed in ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/.
    If you can identify the last backup it worded with notes you can delete all your later backup. Then it should work again.
    Or you can find the backup data for notes in the *.mdinfo and *.mddata file. The application identifier should be something like com.apple.notes. Just search for that string in each *.mdinfo file. Than delete these files.
    In iTunes right-click (or Control-click) the device, and choose Restore from Backup. Then everything should work fine again.

  • Maps is not working properly anymore

    I am using iPad2 with iOS6 and since a few days Maps is not working properly anymore

    I'm having the same problem. I have a 4th gen 32GB iPod Touch, and since upgrading to iOS6, iMessage has been nothing but buggy. It will work for an hour or so, and then randomly stop working as it won't send or receive messages. There's nothing wrong with my wifi, because that's the same as it was before. I really hope someone knows something to fox this problem. Some people use iMessage for good reasons - it needs to be a reliable messaging service like it was in iOS5.
