Is it dangerous for my iPod screen that the glass is crack

Like the title, I'm wondering if the fact that the glass is crack on my iPod touch is dangerous for the screen.

If the crack did not go through the full depth of the glass, there is no danger at all, except for the appearance.  If the crack is all the way through, it is possible that some moisture or dirt can penetrate and cause some degredation of the screen.  However, if it's appearance is not a bother to you, I think that you should keep using it as it is.  If you have Applecare, then by all means,you should take advantage of it , and have the ipod replaced with an alike model.  Otherwise, you would have to pay to have it taken care of.

  • My ipod touch wouldn't turn on because I dropped it, so I plugged it into the computer. It went into recovery mode and is now stuck on a waiting for ipod screen. The ipod shows the apple logo and an empty loading bar.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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 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.

    No. If it states designed for both iPad and iPhone, then it won't run on an iPod touch.

  • Is there anything I can do for my iPod Classic that got washed with a load of laundry?

    Is there anything I can do for an iPod Classic that got washed with a load of laundry? Sincerely appreciate any feedback

    John,
    Needless to say, one would expect water damage as a result of a washer to be extensive.  That doesn't necessarily mean you have no chance of repair however.  I've seen and heard of a couple of do-it-yourself fixes and, if none of those help, you can always try sending it for repair.
    At home, I recommend trying...
    Leave the iPod in a bowl of uncooked (raw) rice.  Supposedly, the rice often absorbs the moisture in the surrounding area and, sometimes, from an electronic part.  Leave it for at least 24-48 hours.
    Leave the iPod in the sunlight for several hours.  When doing this, make certain to avoid direct sunlight as it may damage the unit.
    If all else fails, consider contacting a repair center.  Local is better but, if you have to ship it, contact them and explain your situation before you invest in shipping costs.

  • Its unfair! I tried to download all the games for ipod 3G that the apple community said but all of them needs ios 4.3 . Why is it like that! Can you explain!

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.  The hardware prevent unsing a higher version.

  • I am having major problems with Firefox. About 3 weeks ago I started experiencing the display only when on Firefox for all web site, that the display would be shifted right about half a screen. It only happens on Firefox and happens for all web sites.

    This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar 1.1.8 extension
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Hello, I have a problem with the iPod, is that the iPod does not sync all the songs that are on my Itunes. I have 373 songs on the iPod and iTunes 512 in ... What do I do?

    Hello,i have a problem with the Ipod,is that the Ipod doesn't sync all the songs in my Itunes. I have 373 songs in my Ipod and 512 sons in my Itunes. What do i do?

    Hello,
    I take it you haven't unticked any of the songs listed on your iTunes Library? Also have you tried selecting all your songs which you wish to add to your iPod, and dragging them over your Devices "iPod Nano"; and seeing if that copies all songs on to your iPod?
    Another idea is just check that your iPod has enough space for the rest of your songs to be added to your device.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT204053 i have an apple id on my ipod & another for my macbook & iphone.  how do i change the id for my ipod to match the one for my macbook & iphone?

    i have an apple id on my ipod & another for my macbook & iphone.  how do i change the id for my ipod to match the one for my macbook & iphone?

    To change the ID:
    For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the other ID.
    For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>Facetime.
    For Purchasing, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Stores (Settings>Store in iOS 5).
    For iCloud, you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account.  Before deleting the account, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them.  To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.  Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On iPod.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.

  • HT4623 I have an ipad 2 on ops 4.3 and have just updated to 7.1 via itunes. I backed up first and have synced repeatedly but keep getting a message on my ipdad screen that the ipad is not set up - I chose the set up option restore from itunes back up

    To free up hard drive space the best bet is to move data files that you don't need access to all the time. Likely candidates are music, video, and photos. Things like word processing and spreadsheet files can also be moved but they tend not to be very large and so don't free up much space. The problem with moving the above mentioned files is that iTunes and iPhoto need to know where the files are stored.
    Here's an article explaining how to move the iTunes folder. You can move the iPhoto library using the Finder but there is a slight complication. Start iPhoto, open the Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. The first option is "Copy items to the iPhoto Library". If this option is checked, copy the iPhoto library to your external folder (drag it from the Pictures folder to your external drive) and then delete it from your Picture folder. If this option is not checked, it is a bit more complicated and we'll need to talk a bit.

    What was the exact error message you received?  When you removed and re-installed iTunes, did you use the precise instructions in this Apple support document to walk you through the process?

    can i retrieve bbm msgs on my ipod 5 that the other contact has deleted?

    What do you mean by " other contact has deleted"?
    If they were on your iPod and you backed up then and not backed up after they deleted then restoring from backup may restore those messages. You would have to check with BB/go to their support site
