Microphone won't work on iPod touch

My mic worked before but I have come back from my holidays and found that it picks up nothing at all on video camera or on FaceTime and skype. Please help?

Try the standard fixes in order:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still have a problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Microphone won't work on iPod touch 3rd Gen; not recognized?

My iPod touch works with the volume control earphones fine. It raises and lowers volume and pauses. When I go into any application that uses the microphone, it says "connect a microphone". I already tried replacing the earphones thinking that was the problem.
Maybe something needs to be configured?

OK...
"If you have tried several different sets of Apple Earphones with Mics, then you might have a problem with your iPod Touch." I'm starting to think that, but I hope not.
"Has a mic ever worked for you?" This is the first time I try to work with an external mic, so no...
"Have you tried the "Voice Memo" application and see if that Application works?" Yes I have, and no it doesn't.
"Is your iPod Touch running version 4.2.1 ?" No. 4.1
I don't think it still has an Apple warranty on it.

Mail (through iCloud) won't work on iPod Touch

I've signed up for Cloud on my iPad. Everything works fine, including Mail (although I had to sign up for a new email address, [email protected]). However, if I want to use Mail on my iPod Touch, it won't launch. All I get is the "Welcome to Mail" screen with the various options (Hotmail, Exchange, Gmail, iCloud, etc.). When I tap "iCloud" and fill in my Apple ID and password, it says I'm already connected to iCloud. Mail won't launch and I'm also not receiving any mail. What do I do?

Hi...
On your iPod Touch go to Settings>iCloud and ensure that "Mail" is set to "On".

ITunes won't work on iPod Touch.

I'm having troubles accessing iTunes via my iPod Touch. When I select it on the home page, it opens, then loads for 3 or 4 seconds, and then the screen goes black for a second and it returns to the homepage. I've tried restarting the iPod, but it doesn't help at all.
Any input is most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Assumng that your problem is that iTunes does not see the iPod try:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If that is not the problem please provide additional information.

Application won't work on ipod touch

I bought an app but it won't transfer to my ipod. The problem is that the ipod needs newer software but I already updated the software. Any suggestions?

this is a common problem.
try a reset. http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/troubleshooting/ipodtouch if that doesnt work, downloading another app often seems to fix it.

Tap the X of what app you want deleted. (Primaries like Youtube and Safari cannot be deleted)

I have a second generation ipod touch, why won't the ios 5 and ios 4.3 work on ipod touch 2g?

I have a second generation ipod touch, why won't the ios 5 and ios 4.3 work on ipod touch 2g?

Wel your "answer" provides not only a bad comparison, but is disingenuous at its heart!
Apple sold a product (8GB iPod Touch) that one could have assumed to be 3rd generation at the time of purchase (because that was what all the other models of iPod Touch were at the time). Then when ios 4.3 came out, we who purchased one of these units found out that the 8GB Touch was really a 2nd generation model, and it would not ever be updated beyond ios 4.2.1 (8C148). Since the version (4.2.1) is BUGGY, it would be in the best interest of Apple to at least provide a bug-fix update release for these units. It is not like we are asking for all the new features of ios 4.3, just fix the BUGS, please, Apple!

TV Shows and .mov won't sinc to ipod touch

Some TV shows I bought (from itunes store) for ipod video won't sinc with ipod touch 32g. Also, some .mov files (I made) won't transfer to touch. I've tried every logical thing I can think of to make this work but to no avail. Does Apple have a fix for this?
Thanks

I'm not trying to sound bad, but did you make sure you have the option checked in iTunes to sync movies/videos? I had this same "problem" and freaked out for a good hour before I noticed the default in itunes is set to NOT sync anything but music. Double check that you have the box checked to sync videos and that the files are in itunes.

HT5704 Will iPhone 5 games work on iPod touch 4g?

Will iPhone and iPod touch 5g games work on iPod touch 4g 6.1.3?

Most do, unless they require iPhone-specific hardware. It won't let you install it if it's not compatible.

Headset Bluetooth Philips SHB6110 - mic works on Ipod Touch 2G?

I am looking to buy this headset.
http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?ctn=SHB6110/10&slg=en&scy=G B
I wonder if his mic works on iPod Touch 2G.
Thank you!

Hello guys!
The headset has arrived now! I did some testing only in the Ipod, as I did not have a Bluetooth interface for my PC:
- Mic: Does not work in 2G Ipod. The voice recorder does not recognize the microphone. I could not test on Skype yet, but I believe the same thing will happen.
- Volume buttons (+ and -): Do not work on iPod 2G, the volume control can only be done by the Ipod. PS: the volume is good, but it is not extremely high, you can hear normally, but for those accustomed to listen with high volume can not enjoy.
- Rewind and Forward buttons (<<and>>): Work to move the tracks, but keep them under pressure,does not advance the time.
- Charge: It is connected directly into electric current, has no option to load the PC, but I believe that using a standard USB cable that can be done.
The sound quality is great! The distance that can be used is also very good, up to 9 feet!
Although I will test with the PC then just miss the microphone, but this can be turned over if I change my Ipod Touch for a 4G in the future. My only fear is of being robbed! :-)
I hope I have helped!

Okay. I've tried syncing it first, resetting it first, downloading the firmware, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, I've checked my connections and ports and everything, run all kinds of diagnostics, and nothing is working. Every time it says it's backing it up, my iPod resets and then it's back to square one. I'm going to restore it and see if that helps. What a pain in the butt, especially since it wouldn't back it up.... >.<

The BT profiles on the iPod do not support direct iPod-to-iPod use. There are apps that support peer-to-peer gaming between iPods and maybe transfer like for photos. Also see:
