Is it true if your ipod 4 is water damaged that if you make an apple appointment they can reboot it to a new ipod?

please help? I recently water damaged my ipod and I have everything on my ipod so many memories! please?!

That mean liquid contacted the iPod.
Does iTunes see the iPod?
Is the info in either an iCloud or iTunes backup? If so then restore another iPod, iPhone or iPad from that backup.
If not in a backup your only hoe is a data recovery company.

  • I recently become an ACMT and in one of the documentaions they state that you get a certificate: "Display your personalized certificate and a logo that distinguishes you as an Apple Certified professional." How do I get this certificate to display?

    I became an ACMT not too long ago, but never received my certificate with my name on it. Is there a way that I can get that certificate still?

    i would just like to ask apple if they can make ios 7 for ipod 4th gen because my friends are showing off the new ios 7 with there ipod 5 or iphone

    No. The hardware in the fourth-gen iPod touch won't handle iOS 7 or Apple would have released it for your model of iPod. If you want to run iOS 7, you'll need a new iPod.

    No, it just means that you are running Lion and do not have Java installed. The update will simply check for any previous infection and let you know if it finds anything. If it doesn't find anything it will quit without any notices. In either case, it will then delete itself and you can sleep easy until the next one comes along.

  • Why in the world does it cost sooo much to replace a logic board for your water damage macbook pro? As if apple hasn't made enough money to allow some people to save some money for their laptop..

    Why in the world does it cost sooo much to replace the logic board for your macbook pro.
    As if apple hasn't made enough money to allow some people to save some money..

    Do you think Apple should reward your clumsiness or lack of caution by giving you a logic board for free, or at cost? Come to think of it, shouldn't they just give you a free new computer, and be grateful to you for taking it off their hands?
    Apple isn't a charity operated for the benefit of the careless.

  • Just bought a new iPod touch 16G - I think it's a 5th gen. - I used my old iPod to record rehearsals.  The new one is stating that my Belken mic is not compatible.  Can I record with this new one?  If so, what do I need for a mic?

    Just bought a new iPod Touch 16G - (I think it's a 5th gen.).   I used my old iPod to record music rehearsals.  This new iPod is stating that my old Belken mic (with new adaptor) is not compatible.  Does this new iPod Touch have ability to record audio?     If so, what do I need for a mic??

    Thanks very much!   I found the app, tested it, and it sounds fairly lifelike.    Big help!!

  • Water damaged Ipod touch?

    Hello, my ipod touch had been water damaged.
    It was turned on when it came in contact with water. It was still turned on, however, it was locked and the slider won't slide. I tried turning it off. That doesn't work either. I looked online for help, and I read an article about putting it in an uncooked rice for a few days. I did this, and it is not turn on anyone. What should I do now? I've read on this site that the apple warranty doesn't cover it.

    If your iPod Touch came in contact with water while it was ON and the damage that was done initially while it was ON cannot be reversed. The submersion in rice works when one needs to completely dry out the wet undamaged components internally as the rice will absorb the moisture out of the iPod Touch.
    I would recommend [*_RESETTING your iPod Touch*|http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/assistant/ipodtouch/#section2] while connected to a wall outlet and after it has been connected to a wall outlet for at least 20 minutes. If RESET does not get a response out of your iPod Touch then I am afraid your device has been water damaged and needs repair. You are right, Apple will not honor the warranty in this case.

  • Is it true that if you give in your old ipod you can get a new one for 1/2 off?

    I heard that if you trade in your old ipod touch, you get a discount on buying a new one. Is that true?

    Yes, but not half off. If you bring your older iPod into your local Apple store, you'll get a 10% discount towards the purchase of a newer model.

  • How do you know the true age of your ipod classic..

    how can i find out the true age of the ipod classic.. i know its a newer version.. but how do i know if it was sitting on a shelf forever or brand new from apple...

    You should see it in part of the description once the divice is connected to the computer through a usb cable. Or you could look at the number by going on setting on your ipod touch then go to general then from there go on about scroll down until you see serial number and ther it is.

  • Is it true you can get your iPod fixed for free for the first time

    I want to fix my ipod and my cousin said that they fix it for free for the first time so i wanted to ask you

    No. The will replace your iPod at no cost if within the warranry period and the iPod was not abused. I wonder where everybody gets that one-time replacement.  It seems somebody says that once a day here.

  • Isit true to say that iPod Updater kills your iPod?

    Hello all,
    First, sorry for my poor English. I am not a professional nor a technician and I could be wrong, so please correct me. There are many problems reported mainly from the PC users that their iPod can't be recognized nor mounted after the installation of the latest iPod updater. Most of them claimed that the iPod updater kills their beloved iPods. Before we jump to a conclusion, we must understand what is iPod, and how does the iPod update work.
    I believe that iPod equals a basic computer and need a OS in order to communicate with the PC. Installation the Updater will format the Hard disk of the iPod and then install the simple OS, so if we open the iPod updater file, it will show a window with two buttons i.e. Restore and Update, an Update is to copy the latest OS over the old version, but the Restore will format the hard disk before it install the OS over it. And importantly, during this process, the iPod needs sufficient of power to complete the upgrade, however, the problem comes just after the format, and the PC's USB (only 2 will work not 1.1) does not supply the stable power,even some cases that iPod does not get charge in the half way of installatin (a proper installation, you will see a running bar showing on the iPod screen just after the format), so you can imagine a hard disk got format but only got an uncompleted OS, of course, the iPod would not get recognized and mounted, and do not manage to communicate with the computer. At this stage the iPod will show a Sad iPod icon, a folder with exclamaiton points or a battery charging icon.
    So, what would you do when it reach at this stage, a Reset would not work, and you would not able to do the Restore as the iPod is totally unrecognized by the computer.
    Therefore, is there anyway to solve this problem, in my opinion and from my past experience, the answer is "yes", the simple way is to put your iPod in Disk Mode, when it plug to the computer, it will show as an external Hard Disk, you must fix it by doing a format (RESTORE would not work at this stage as it still can't recognized and mounted), in Mac we can use "Disk Utility" but the XP would not allow you to do the format in FAT32. After the formatting, replug the iPod with the computer, then it can be mounted and allow you to do the RESTORE.
    In addition, I find an interesting point is, if your iPod formatted with a Mac, you will have better chance to be mounted with a PC, even your iPod does not complete the process of the installation of the iPod updater, and a PC formatted iPod will be likely to be fixed by a Mac as well.
    How should we do before the update of the lastest software, for the XP user please do the following:-
    1. Go to the system restore and create a check point in order to revert back to the previous version of the iPod updater, or do the back up using the 3rd party software such as Ghost or Go Back.
    2. To have a test and make sure the PC's USB works properly. You can use the iPod or a PDA, and just make sure it got charged.
    3. Have your iPod a full charge before the installation of the iPod updater
    So, who is the main killer for the iPod?
    For further infomation please read the following link - which wrote by a groups of great people - thank your guys
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?128@@.68ae8668

    Yes, it will erase all your data with your iPod. Please do not format until you have the back up of your iPod. Very likely that your iPod was formatted by a Mac, which can't be read by your PC. Download a software called Xplay

  • Hooking your iPod mini to your car stereo

    Hi. I was wondering if someone could tell me what is the best product to hook your iPod mini up to your car stereo. I have looked at some but I would like some opinions. I want a good product not something that will break right away. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

    b Various Methods to Connect to a Car Stereo System, or Listen to Your iPod in the Vehicle
    b Best:
    Direct connection via the dock connector or headphone jack of your iPod, to the mini-jack input (or AUX RCA input jacks) of your car stereo. Not many low/moderate-end cars have this feature yet, but it is becoming more popular. Some aftermarket auto stereo units may have this feature.
    There are also some after-market, moderate to fairly expensive direct interfaces, that hook into your existing car stereo to provide a high-quality, direct connection. Most will also power/charge the iPod. Pretty slick, but can be pricey ($80-$300). If money is no object, a clean way to go. Not very portable from car to car – if at all.

    http://www.theistore.com/ipod2car.html
    http://www.mp3yourcar.com/
    b Better:
    Connect your iPod to a cassette adaptor and play your tunes through your car's cassette player. Some new cars no longer come with a cassette player, so it may not be an option. It will provide even better audio quality if you can run the audio feed out of the dock connector (see the SendStation link below). Can be portable between cars that have a cassette player and also be used in your home cassette system.
    b Good:
    Attach an FM transmitter to your iPod and play the tunes through an unused FM station. Convenient, but wireless FM transmitter signals are susceptible to static and outside interference, and can vary in strength and quality depending on your location. Some noticeable degradation and distortion, depending on the quality of the transmitter, the sensitivity of your ears and the airwave congestion in your area. Highly portable between cars, and may be used in a home system. FM transmitters that need to be plugged into a DC auto jack may not work in a home environment (without some sort of adaptor).
    b Marginal:
    Attach an external speaker system to the iPod and play it in the car. Workable, but not too good - unless you spring for a $300+ Bose (or similar) system. But why? Only if your vehicle has no Stereo system, perhaps.
    b Brave Techno-Geek:
    This site gives some direction on adapting your own car stereo by yourself: http://www.whatsmyip.org/ipodrx8/ . Risky, but it has been successful: Seanski, "silent track" #2, 11:59pm Jul 15, 2005 CDT
    Whichever you choose, power the iPod through your car’s DC power -- either from a power adapter, or as part of the combined audio adaptor. Have a method to secure the iPod to the dash/console/etc. See the reviews for all the various accessories at the iLounge
    You will also get better audio output if the dock connection plug is used, rather than the headphone jack. See this URL for a novel adaptor: https://www.sendstation.com/us/products/pd_lousb.html. Others types are also available via this site.
    I have read positive and negative reviews of each method, and within method there are great variations in performance of different manufacture's systems – and peoples’ opinions of their performance. Some cassette adaptors/FM transmitters work poorly, some better.
    FWIW: I have the iTrip Mini & the Newer Technology RoadTrip!+ FM transmitters, a Belkin cassette adaptor (used both with & w/out the PocketDock) and two vehicles with the BlitzSafe direct interface. Using the same song in the same car, I found that the FM transmitters worked, but not as good as the cassette adapter via the headphone jack. Using the PocketDock on the cassette adapter resulted in a significant audio quality improvement. As expected, the Blitzsafe direct connect was exceptionally better than everything else: less tinny, a more warmer/richer sound, and close to true CD quality.

  • You used to be able to shuffle a playlist and see the order in which the songs would sync into your iPod.  I haven't been able to figure that out. Can anyone help me?

    You used to be able to shuffle a playlist and see the order in which the songs would sync into your iPod.  I haven't been able to figure that out. Can anyone help me?

    With your playlist in "List view", click on the header over the column of numbers all the way to the left.  This will then reveal the true playback (and sync) order.
    However, the sort order in iTunes may not agree with the sort order on your device, but that is a separate issue and seems to have too many variables to go into here.

  • Is it recommended to not use your ipod while charging it?

    We'll I've heard that using your ipod while charging decreases the batteries life, is this true?

    I have not heard that. Doing so will increase the time reqired to fully charge the iPod.
