IPod Touch Price Drop

Hi,
I HAVE searched, and a good answer to my question was not found. The new iPhone is $199, and the iPod Touch is currently $299. I am aware that the iPhone plan rates have gone up. I would like to know if there has been any kind of announcement for the iPod Touch and a price drop. My 14th birthday is in about a month, I think I need to upgrade my 1g nano, but I don't think I can just run out there and spend $300.
Regards,

Thank you for the speedy answer.
Do you know if there exists an "exchange program" where you can "sell" an older iPod (A 1G nano in my case) and only pay the extra for a new one (which would be an iTouch in my case)?

  • Does the Wish List for iPhone/iPad/iPod show price drops?

    Does the Wish List for iPhone/iPad/iPod show price drops? I assume it would show the new price in the Wish List but does it inform you if the price drops?

    The apps which show on the file sharing section on your iPad when connected to your computer's iTunes, you have exactly the same apps installed on your iPhone - they are not separate iPad and iPhone apps that you have installed on your iPad/iPhone, and only the iPad version supports file sharing ?
    For iBooks, that won't show, it doesn't support file sharing. You can add ibooks / epubs / PDFs to your computer's iTunes library (the iBooks app if you are using a Mac with OS X Mavericks on it) via File > Add To Library, and you sync them to a device via its Books tab :
    If you want to copy them off the device to your computer's iTunes (to the iBooks app on Mavericks) then File > Devices > Transfer Purchases will copy them over (that will copy PDFs and epubs from the iBooks app on your device, not just ibooks).

  • Since updating to ISO 8 my iPod touch keeps dropping me from from wifi.i have to keep rebooting. I have an airport extreme which looks like a white space ship. Can anyone help.thank you

    Since updating to ISO ate my iPod touch fifth-generation keeps dropping me from Wi-Fi I have an older AirPort Extreme that looks like a white spaceship does anybody have any solutions I have an iPad first-generation and my girlfriend has an iPod touch fifth-generation that she hasn't updated yet and there is no problem with those two units

    I would either say that the iOS is correpted due to a software glitch or y have have a hardware problem like bad memory locations that are corrupting the iOS.
    - Restore from backup via iTunes. This will install a fresh copy of the iOS. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.   This will elimate corruptin in the backup causing the problem.          
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Ipod touch keeps dropping wifi in dorm room

    I recently moved into a college dorm and i am having trouble with my ipod touch. Everytime i connect to the wifi from my roomates router it drops it after a few minutes. I know that is is not the ipod because it works fine with other wifi networks and my friends iphone also has the problem. After that i really have no idea what the problem is. I know that the router is working because i can access it on my laptop without any problem at all.

    Someone here suggested the same thing and i changed it and that makes it work for like half an hour then the issue comes back

  • ATTENTION PLEASE READ: ipod touch 5 dropped in water

    i was at the beach laying down and i dropped my ipod in the sand when the tide came up and my whole ipod got submerged under water. the screen has no right colors, its all dark and messed up, i can only listen to music with earphones in because the speakers got water inside of it and when i try to type things it barely works, also it wont connect to wifi anymore.. theres a little crack in my ipod and i can see through the screen that water went inside from it, any suggestions on how to fix it?

    Take it to an Apple Store ASAP. It's unlikely it can be saved, but you can exchange it for a refurbished replacement:
    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.

  • IPhone versus iPod Touch, price differences COMPLAINT

    hello, I am from belgium, and I am starting to wonder why I bought a iPhone 4, while 3 months later, the new iPod Touch comes out, and basically can do everything a iPhone can?
    Here in Belgium the iPhone costs 639€ wich is I guess more then 650$, while for the new ipod touch, the price has been set at about 230$ if I'm right?
    Could someone tell me WHY we are forced to pay roughly 400$ more just to have 3G and GPS?????
    how is this even possible? should I have to live in the US to get regular prices for apple products?!

    Tamara; I know this, but I do not understand a price difference of over 400$ for a extra chipset that offers 3G/Edge/GPRS & GPS. I know the ipod does not have it, and I know I am not forced to buy one over the other or any of them at all.
    I'm actually very pleased with my product, but I do not understand how the price difference can be that high? The ONLY difference, is the addition of the chipset for cellphone usage!
    The ipod even has the camera now ! ( and without the simcard, I don't think the ipod makes the user pay the additional 0,20 c that iPhone 4 users pay for one time activation - each time the iPhone is restored though - for facetime... )
    I don't understand how 2 products with such small ( even though important ) differences can have a that price difference as well

  • HT2480 iPod touch 5 dropping wifi

    My iPod touch 5 I just got it for school and the wifi keeps dropping a lot and at school they have wifi but the wifi does not drop there it only happens when I am at home or some store 

    Since it works at school fine, that would point to a problem with the wifi network at home and in some store.

  • Ipod Touch Price

    Hi all. I want to buy Apple ipod touch 5g which is yet to come in near future . Apple says it will be around $299 but i am from india. Please let me know is it legal to get it shipped from US Apple Store and what will be the total cost including shipping cost and Impost/Export Duty charges. Please tell me.I really need some real information.

    Becasue Apple does NOT ship out of country at all.  This is how they have decided to run their extraordinarily successful business.
    They have Apple Stores in your country.  You need to buy it there.  If you could buy from other countries stores, then their stores would be in competition with themselves.  This would make no sense.

  • How do I access my iPod Touch (5th Generation). Broken Home Key, Locked Screen, No assistive touch currently off and no access to itunes on original PC.

    So a friend had damaged her iPod touch by dropping it some time ago. It has been sitting in her drawer ever since (she got a new device). It is now out of warranty and she said I could have it, but only catch is i'd have to fix it some how.
    Problems are:
    1) iPod is locked - She doesn't know the passcode it was set to.
    2) Home key broken - Unable to do a reset as per the many links I see online.
    3) Assistive touch is off - Unable to turn this on as the phone is locked and I can't unlock it.
    4) We no longer have access to the original PC that it was sync'd with. I've managed to get it linked to my itunes but can't do anything with it do to the fact it won't let me as iPod is locked.
    So basically it almost seems there is nothing that can be done but would appreciate your help if possible. Ideally if I can get it unlocked without losing the data so I can keep the music that is on there it would be good. If not then a full reset is fine.
    Can this be done? Can we turn on assistive touch without unlocking the phone and no home key? Please help,

  • My iPod Touch 5th generation is faulty, first the home button stopped working and now it's died completely, won't charge but I can feel the screen is heated. What is going on with this thing?

    I bought this iPod mid-March, I've only had it for a little less than 5 months.  I bought it at Best Buy, I don't know if that matters or anything- I have a geek squad and apple warranty.  I'm only nineteen years old and this was my first real big purchase and I'm very disappointed.  I've had other iPods before and never had any issues with them, my last one lasted from 2008 - 2013.  I take very good care of my iPod Touch, never dropped it or anything of the sort and I keep it in a thick case.  This iPod worked fine up until recently.  First the home button became unresponsive, I had to activate the assistive touch because I use this iPod for school work.  I was about to take my iPod into Best Buy so they could take a look at it and see if there was anything they could do before I contacted apple, but now my iPod is completely dead.  It won't respond at all. I had to disconnect the charger because the iPod screen was getting hot and it wasn't charging.  It's been disconnected for a few hours and the screen still feels hot. I'm really concerned, especially with recent news reports of handheld devices overheating and burning people or even exploding.  Will the apple warranty cover this so I can get a new iPod?  What are my options?

    If the iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost under your warranty.

  • Can we get screen replaced on ipod touch?

    Can I replace the screen on my ipod touch? Dropped it this morning and it cracked, very badly.

    Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
    There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair".
