  • Hiya, my ipod touch 4th generation cameras are not working.

    Hiya, my ipod touch 4th generation cameras are not working. I had the screen replaced about a month ago and it was working fine.  I woke up the other day and went on my camera and it had stopped working, it won't let me change from the front to back camera so i don't know what the problem  is: now all it shows when i go on the camera app is the shutter or a black screen. I have tried the advice people have said but it hasn't seemed to work. Any help would be appreciated!

    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.
    - 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 problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    However, it other than Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider did the previous screen replacement , Apple will not help.
    For the future, saying that you tried the advice people have said, provides us with zero information as to what yu tried.

  • IPod Touch 4th Generation Home button semi-stuck, iPod Touch 4th Generation Home button semi-stuck

    Hi,
    this is my first post here.
    My iPod touch 4th gen has been experiencing some problems with the home button lately. The home button is semi stuck. It works but I have to press it really lightly at times and really hard at other times. I don't know what happened. I let my little brother play with it for a day, and when he returned it to me it was like this. I tried recalibrating it but it was no good. I would try the alcohol method, but there's no alcohol allowed in my house. I tried asking my parents to get me a swab for this purpose and they refused lol. Should I try using a wet q-tip around the home button? Or should I try using my vacuum cleaner's pipe suction things on the usb port thing while holding down the home button? Any and all help is appreciated

    Regarding the songs problem, Are you always syncing to one computer/iTunes library? If y sync to another computer/iTunes library your iPod will be erased and its contents replaced with what is in the iTunes library of the second computer.

  • IPod Touch 5th Generation home button is stuck, support options?

    Hi, I do IT, and when talking to someone in my science class and somehow he brought up the fact that his iPod touch 5th generations home button had become stuck overnight, without cause, it is in a otter box, and has never been dropped, come in contact with water, etc... . I had the exact same problem and luckily when I contacted apple it was the last day of my year long coverage. I checked his serial number and his support has expired, so what are my options? From my research it seems like this issue is not uncommon, and I have read that Apple will replace the defunct unit regardless of the warranty if you bring it to a genius bar, is this true? If it is not, then what would be the price for Apple to repair it, as it is in perfect condition with no scratches, and I would not want to void any future warranty options by replacing the button/screen myself?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and find out if Apple will be nice and exchange it for a refurbished iPOd at no cost. Apple dies not repair yur iPOd, they exchange it for a refurbished one. If Apple will not exchange it at no cost, the exchange price is $99 for 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs

  • Ipod touch 4th generation, screen doesn't work in certain apps.

    Hi i have a Ipod touch 4th generation. I have somewhat of a weird problem, at least i think it is. My ipod touch screen works really well just opening apps on the springboard any where on the screen. Also in certain apps I have no problems, but in others it seems that it will not let me click on buttons toward the bottom. I found this odd because in other apps i have no problem and everything seems responsive.  I have done some of my own troubleshooting and apps like google maps and the email app work fine. But other apps such as fatbooth, facebook and instagram I cannot touch icons anywhere near the bottom they just dont registar. Any help?

    Sounds like a hardware issue. Your screen digitizer may need to be replaced.

  • Ipod touch 4th generation camera doesn't work after smashed screen replacement

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation that i smashed to screen with a torch, i got the screen replaced however my camera shutter will NOT open at all, i can go into camera roll and everything BUT the shutter wont open and the slide to go from camera to video just blinks a few times. Ive tried everything from turning it off and on(note my off/top button doesn't work) I had problems with the camera before i had the screen replaced but now it doesn't work at all. And will resetting and/or restarting it through iTunes delete ANY of the conent i have on my Ipod?
    Any help much appreciated as i can NOT afford to get it fixed at Apple!!

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    In that case take it back to the people who replaced the screen. They likely messed something up unless what broke the screen and broke the camera.
