Ipod touch 16Gb not working since installing recent O4 upgrade

My Ipod touch 16GB has died !! It stopped during the update when an error message appeared stating unable to SYNC IPOD. Now all I have is a black screen with the Apple Logo, and then a bar appears across the screen underneath the logo as if its trying to install software and show amount of time left. This goes on and on until the battery goes flat !!! Help please

Hi amit,
Am not sure about an old product but yea i once went to get my earbuds replaced under warranty priod. There was some trouble with it and they replaced it. I asked the guy to give me the other earplugs with mic and i can pay the difference. They told that they can only replace the same product even if you have to pay or not.
May be an apple policy or Imagine own policy but that's what I think we can avail being apple users in India. Check for good places who repair iPod as am sure some do. No offence but I can take the chance of getting my ipod repaired from a third party after using it for a substancial amount of time. We all know its our inner feeling and warranty policies which normally hinders us.
But surely you can call Apple support at 18004250744 or Apple sales 1800 425 4646 and confirm about this policy. Also, you can mail Apple directly and check.
Rest if you want to stick to Apple reseller support itself then i would suggest to add a few more to that $230 amount and get the latest iTouch which now comes even in white and has innumerable new features. But never pay such a hefty amount and get the 1st gen itself.
Regards,
Amit

  • Ipod touch 16gb not working

    i have been given an ipod touch 16gb that doesn't work . all i get on the screen is a small apple logo . every now and then a little circle will appear and flash clockwise . that is all i can get it to do and it doesn't see to charge either . any ideas please guys ?

    its not new no . i have held both buttons together for 10 seconds , thats about the only thing it will do . before he gave it to me it was working . he told me he had cleared all media off it so there were no photos or songs . he said it took about 2 hours to clear . i think he has wiped everything from the ipod .

    Try:
    - 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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar                                      
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79 Y can do the exchange at an APple store or sent it in.. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace your battery for less. Google for more.

    Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. Y can purchase a eplacement battery for about $10

  • My Ipod touch email stopped working after installing Update

    my Ipod touch email stopped working after installing the latest firmware update from Apple what should I do?

    Hi, jewlssch. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If the Mail application will not launch, I would recommend processing any available updates on your Mac Pro and test launching Mail.  If the issue persists, process a reinstall of Mavericks.
    Reinstall OS X

    the wi-fi tool on my ipod touch is not working. i even can't turn it ON

    See here: iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    Note that if none of the suggestions resolve the issue, it's likely hardware related, meaning you'll need to have your iPod serviced or replaced.

  • My lock button on my 1 g iPod touch is not working???

    My lock button on my 1 g iPod touch is not working???

    Its possibly because its only a 1g iPod. I suggest you either get a newer iPod or bring it to an Apple store and see what they can do.

    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 touch is not working at all pls HELP, my ipod touch is not working at all pls HELP

    My iPod touch is not working at all,i did everything i could and still it doesnt work,i live in the philippines my idea of solving this problem is to send it back at Apple California we do have service centre here but i dont trust them,i dont know what to do,I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP

    Quite possibly.  It wouldn't hurt to try another one if at all possible. If you have to, borrow one from a friend.  It could also be due to debris in the docking port of your iPod.  Take a look on the inside of the port and make sure there is no lint or anything like that.  Also look for broken pins as they would definitely cause connection issues as well.

  • My 4th gen ipod touch will not work in a philips or Sony docking station

    I bought a philips(DC320) clock radio and my ipod touch would not work in it.  Thinking it was a problem with the connector on the radio I returned it and bought a Sony ICF-CS15ip because the store was out of the philips radio.  When I plugged my 4th gen ipod touch into that again my Ipod touch would not play through the radio but the radio would recognize and charge the ipod.  I tried my daughter's 2nd gen ipod touch in the Sony and it worked great.  So It looks like there is a problem with the my ipod.  Sony claims that the ICF-CS15ip is compatible with the 4th gen ipod touch and I have the latest IOS 5.1.1 on my ipod.  Any suggestions before I go to the Apple store?  The Ipod is only 6 months old.

    You can try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is 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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPOd.
    That has worked for some users.
    However, sometimes an iOS update will break compatibility. In that case yo have to wait for either Apple or the dock manufacturer to issue a firmware update.

  • Brand new IPOD touch does not work w Bose speaker docking station is there anything that needs to be done?. The Nano that I have works fine.

    My new Ipod touch is not working with my Bose Speaker docking station. My Nano works fine.
    Any reasons for this?

    Does Bose say it will work with your model iPod and iOS?
    Does it appear that the iPod fully seating in the dock?
