IPod Touch 4 runs out of battery fast

I have an iPod touch 4 (which I got sometime in December 2010), and I fully charge it, and when I disconnect it I don't immeadiately use it. When I'm about to use it, I can see the battery is already running out. & I haven't even used it. Is something wrong with my iPod?

the reason people don't seem to get is that leaving your iPod on "wifi" mode drains battery, it drains even more if you have the wifi on in an area where there is no wifi connection.
mutlitasking and screen brightness helps but it doesn't give the drainage effect like what you said.
apple doesn't give the iPod Touch crappy battery, it's the users who doesn't understand how it works.

    even after all night of charging my ipod touch is running out of battery whithin 5 minutes of it being on, why is this?

    Try the following to rule out a software problem.:
    - 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.
    - 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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still that short of life ake an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My 8GB iPod touch is running out of space, but all I have is 177 songs with no apps, videos, or pictures.

    My 8GB iPod touch is running out of space, but all I have is 177 songs with no apps, videos, or pictures.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
    An "other" larger than abount 1 1/2 GB usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
    First try:
    "First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
    as recommended by:
    How do I get rid of "other" storage: Apple Support Communities
    Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
    To restore from backup see:

  • Ipod 60 Photo runs out of battery before full update done

    I have about 18GB of tunes/podcasts in ITunes (no photos). While ITunes shows that the Ipod is connected OK, it takes about 1 to 1.5 hours for a message to come up saying something like 'not all the tunes can be found' and then only 5-12GB gets downloaded before the battery on the Ipod runs out.
    I have installed the latest Ipod software, and have installed the next but latest Itunes Software (6.01?). I have gone through all the songs and sorted out all the disconnected links to ITunes Library on my computor, so the error message seems to be incorrect. I have just bought a Universal Dock hoping I could keep the Ipod on charge at the same time as download but there's only one connector port on it so it looks like this is not the solution.
    Suggestions would be welcome. I'm missing my music fix!
    Dell   Windows XP Pro  

    Hi Tom,
    I'll have to try your suggestions a bit later. Got a crisis. All the tunes and podcasts have disaapeared from my iTune Library. I've had this happen before, but last time my iPod had the full library on it so I was able to upload into iTunes. This time, the iPod lbrary is very incomplete so I think I'm starting from scratch.
    I suspect I may have a software conflict issue anyway. iTunes frequently crashes my whole computor. I have no idea what to do about this. The company who maintains my software don't know what to do either.
    I love my iPod. Its opened the world of music to me. Its so sad that its hard to keep to keep my iPod & iTunes up and running OK.

  • My iPod touch 5 has run out of battery and wont charge what do I do?

    My iPod touch has run out of battery and is failing to charge or turn on! What do i do?!

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • How do you fix lines that come up on an iPod Touch (5th Gen) once it turns on after running out of battery?

    This has happened to me about 4 times now. I just got a brand new iPod touch (5th Gen) after replaceing my 4th gen iPod. I havent had it for a month, so its still brand new. The only thing is that when the iPod runs out of battery it turns off (duh) but it doesnt turn back on when you plug it in to charge. When I noticed that the iPod doesnt turn on, and I hit the power button, lines appear on my screen. They are lines that run up and down the screen from left to right. I try factory resets, setting resets, restoring my iPod. But this issue keeps coming up. I honestly dont know what to do. This thing is brand new and its acting up on me. Should I take it to my apple store? Should I just put up with it. I have tried everything and at this point I dont know what to do anymore. Please help!!

    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Since you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem
    If the iPod is defective within warranty (you indicate it is) and not abused Apple will exchange it on the spot.

  • Does my music get lost if my iPod runs out of battery?

    I've never got my iPod running out of battery, so I'm wondering if my music could get lost when the iPod runs out of battery?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    No, the iPod will keep the songs even if it runs out of battery power. Just charge it up again and you can play its songs.

    Start with the article below to get your iPhone to take a charge. Once you get it powered back on, you will want to sync again to make sure nothing was lost during the attempted sync.

  • Problem after running out of battery.

    My MACBOOK PRO running on OS X Lion shut down the other day after completelly running out of battery. Ever since, I have started having problems with my browsers. Certain pages such as facebook wont load aswell as videos. On top of that it keeps asking me to verify the certificates of any page I want to go to and  it keeps telling me that my date and time have been set to 1.1.2008 (although i changed it back the first time i saw it and since the date is still alright).
    What do I have to do?

    After charging at least overnight try the remaining items of:
    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.
