Is there anyway to get the back light fix on a ipod

The back light on my sons ipod doesnt work. The device works fine you just cant see anything.
Any ideas of how to get this fix.
I dont want to buy another one.

Unfortunatley, no accessibility feature in the general settings.
You can change the text size for mail (in mail settings) , but text messages and contacts are locked, it seems,  at the default size. This is a drag for me as I now have to either hold my phone out at arms length or put on reading glasses to read text messages and/or make calls.
Maybe there is an APP for this? - appstore or elsewhere?

    The picture is has been zoomed out.  Is there anyway to get it back to its original grayish working background?

  • My young child bought over $600.00 worth of apps., is there anyway to get the money back

    My young child bought over $600.00 worth of apps., is ther anyway to get the money back?

    Wow!  You learned what could have been a *VERY* expensive lesson at a relatively low price.
    Another poster had set an American Express account (unlimited credit, in many cases) as payment method for iTunes, and had given his iPhone to his grandson.  The grandson bought a $300 zoo-something game.  The other poster may or may not have learned from that episode.
    The lesson is that children do NOT feel financial responsibility when happily clicking to get pretty pictures and fun games and "cool" songs.  That grandfather could have been $80,000 in the hole potentially if the grandson went hog-wild.
    The solution is two-fold, in my humble opinion:
    Buy a prepaid mastercard with a $100 limit.  Make that the payment method.  That limits loss to $100.
    Supervise your cildren when they use accounts you will have to pay for.

  • HT4859 I backedup iphone 4 and iphone 5 to icloud. I need contacts from the ipone 4 backup but I do not have that phone anymore and icloud will only let me restore the iphone 5's backups now. Is there anyway to get the contacts from my previous iphone 4?

    I backedup my iphone 4 to the cloud before upgrading to an iphone 5. I also backedup my iphone 5 to icloud. I can see both phone's backups side by side on the my screen on icloud. But it will not allow me to restore the iphone 4 backup to my iphone 5.  I need contacts from the iphone 4 backup but I do not have that phone anymore and icloud will only let me restore the iphone 5's backups to my iphone 5. Is there anyway to get the contacts from my previous iphone 4 backup?

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

  • I think I deleted my old iPhone profile is there anyway to get it back? Help?!

    iPhone help anyone?? I just got my replacement iPhone and tried to sync it with my old iPhone 4 profile. It said it couldn't because it was an old operating system so I would have to set it up as a new iPhone first. Now my old iPhone with all messages, photos etc. has disappeared...is there anyway of getting it back??!! Also my new iPhone says it can't download the new software as the firmware is not compatible. I really don't want to have lost all my old iPhone information, please help!! My iCloud account is still set up to my old iPhone profile if that helps? Could it be that my old iPhone is blocked?

    Firmware not compatible is often an indication that your iTunes isn't up to date.  Update it to the latest version (10.6.3), then try updating your phone again.  You can check to see if the backup of your old phone is still there by going to iTunes preferences and looking at the backups list on the Devices tab.  If it isn't there then you can't get your old data back (unless you had backed up your old backup).  If it is, then once your new phone is up to date right-click on the name of your phone on the left sidebar of iTunes and select Restore from Backup, choosing the backup of your old phone to restore to.
    When you set up your new phone, sign into your existing iCloud account and go to Settings>iCloud and turn on syncing for contacts, calendars and your other iCloud backup and your iCloud data should be restored to your phone.

    What happened to your phone that you are trying to restore to a backup that is encrypted? If you have your contacts in iCloud, you can just turn iCloud back on when you get the phone working, if it isn't, and that will bring your contacts back. You won't need to do a restore from an iCloud backup if you were not doing an iCloud backup anyway. If you log into www.icloud.com and look at contacts, what do you see there?

  • HT201269 I have years worth of music on my PC that is about to die.  If I get an iPad is there anyway to get the music from my PC onto the iPad? I have the iCloud but my understanding is only music actually purchased from iTunes lives int he cloud.

    I have years worth of music on my PC that is about to die.  If I get an iPad is there anyway to get the music from my PC onto the iPad? I have the iCloud but my understanding is only music actually purchased from iTunes lives int he cloud. I have music that was legally purchased and loaded to my iTunes account from cd's that I no longer own.  I need a new laptop and am deciding between the iPad and the Mac book.  I use the computer for music, photos, and web - nothing else and nothing fancy.  I don't know that there is a way to save my huge music library without saving it to an external hard drive and then loading it to a new one (does the iPad have a port to plug an external hard drive into?)

    First, you would need to make a backup of the entire iTunes folder on the PC. You could get music to the iPad if the PC was still functioning, or you would have to move the music to another computer. An iPad is not a laptop, and does not have a port to plug an external drive into. You can sync music to the iPad from the computer, but you are correct, unless you get iTunes Match, you would need a computer to copy the music to and then sync to an iPad.

    Is there anyway to get the ipod out of being locked and having a password that was forgotten off?

    Connect to the iPod to iTunes and restore it. Right click on the name of the iPod under DEVICES and click Restore. If it says it can't restore because the device is locked with a passcode, put it in Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • I have collected alot of music over the years and the new update will delete all my music.  I have puchased a new computer about a year ago so the previous music that I have is not available.  Is there anyway to get the update and not lose all my music

    I have collected alot of music over the past couple years and the new update for the itouch says that it will erase all music and videos on the ipod.  Is there anyway to do the update and not lose all my music or is there a way to take all the music off my ipod and store it on my computer to put back on after the update?  Any help

    ... I have had numerous computers over the past years
    Let me guess, you have had numerous Windows computers, all of which crashed or became worthless virus-ridden junk. Happens every day, yet people think Macs are expensive.
    Anyway, you are going to need the assistance of third party utilities to extract your iPod Touch's content. See wjosten's procedure here:

  • How do I adjust the back light time for my iPod 5th generation?

    I Set my iPods back light timer (not sure what it's called exactly) to one minute. And after realizing that some things get annoying to have to tap the screen constantly to keep it from locking itself I wanted to change it back to "Never" but I forgot where that setting is. If anyone knows where it is, which I'm sure many do, please tell me where to find it. Thanks.

    Hey Turnerfran, go into Settings>General and scroll down to Auto-Lock tap on it you can choose from 1 minute to 5 minutes or turn it off. If you choose off the back light will stay on until you put your iPod to sleep or turn it off or after the battery drains. Good luck. Cheers.

  • How to restore deleted playlists to an itouch after syncing with wrong device. Tried to search for device to restore under devices and it completely removed it as a device on itunes. Is there anyway to get the information back?

    To start we have several users and devices on our itunes account....Several weeks ago I was using my itouch to create playlists for a few aerobics classes that I teach.  Right before I was about to unplug the itouch I got a notification that my itouch was full and didnt have any space left.  Since I was done with what I was doing at the time, I unplug my itouch and figured I would delete unwanted songs later to create more room. A week later, I went to sync my itouch into itunes and over the devices it told me that it was named another device and wanted to know if i wanted to sync the information to my itouch I had just plug in.  I had never seen this message before in all the other times I had used it, and at the time I didnt realize that it was giving my device the name of another user in my house. Without realizing it itunes started to sync the new information to my itouch.  I immediately unplugged the usb cable stopping the process.  I then replugged the usb cable in, hoping to get done what I needed to get done on my itouch thinking it might have just been a strange glitch. Also, since I hadn't notice any change on my itouch from the incorrect syncing, I continued to start itunes again.  This time it asked me the same question as before "did I want to sync the information from another ipod?". Since I didnt notice any changes before I just let it do the syncing not realizing at the time that it was earsing all the info I had on my itouch and replacing it with info coming from the other users ipod.
    I contacted Apple and they gave me infomation on how I could go look for my itouch under devices and get the information back.  When I did this my itouch was no longer there under the devices and it was replaced with the new name that itunes had given my itouch.  This device is one of the first generation itouches and has never been backed up that I know of... So my question to you all is...Is there any way of getting my playlists back???? I spend countless hours creating these playlists for my classes and have been completely out of my mind trying to figure out how I can possibly get the infomation back. Please let me know if you think there might be a way to do this!!!     

    The devices that are listed are: 2 under the name of the device that synced incorrectly with mine and then 3 others that are not associated with my itouch. The name of the ipod, before the incorrect sycning is no longer under devices.  It has been replaced with the incorrect one because I can see the serial # of my ipod under the wrong name.
    The playlists that are in my itunes library are from an ipod that I used a few times before I took this one over... Which happens to be the ipod that took on the ID of my itouch.
    Both of these ipods used to be my kids.. I used my sons a few times and then switched to my daughters.  They each had their names attachted to their particular devices and now it just says my sons, which is the ipod that itunes was connecting to when all this happened. The really strange thing is my son doesnt use his ipod any longer and now uses his phone for music...So, it had been a while since that particular device was even synced to itunes!
    I hope this helps!

  • While I was updating my ipod touch there was an error and it said my ipod needed to be restored so I did that but I seemed to have lost all the photos I had on my ipod.  Is there anyway to get them back?

    While I was updating my ipod touch there was an error and it said I needed to restore my ipod.  I restored it from backup but I seem to have lost all my pictures that I had stored on there.  Is there any way to get them back?

    - Try restoring from a backup that include the photos. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you use PhotoStream you should be able to get the last 30 days worth from your PhotoStream. See:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
