My frirend got his iPod Touch wet.
Now the screen is very dim. Everything seems to work but the screen is too dim to use. Already tried screen brightness in settings. Any other suggestions?
Try putting it in a bag of uncooked rice and leave it in there for about a week and then the rice should of soaked up most of the water

I was walking and got stuck in the rain and had my ipod in my pocket.
When i got hom i dried it off and let it dry for a couple days before using it.
Shortly after using it, it turned off without me pressing anything.
The screen flashes on and off and the slide to turn off ipod thing pops up all the time.
I dont really know what to do.You can also check your local retailers if you wanted to get it immediately rather than ordering. I purchased mine at my local Best Buy even though if you check online the site tells you they are not available at stores. I called and was told they had all of the new iPods available.

My nephew lost his Ipod Touch he got for Christmas. I tried using the locator on my Ipad but his device doesn't show up on my list, is there anyway of using the locator?
Hi,
You could try the things below:
- You could report it to the police.
- Follow your steps to where he last had it
Thats all I could think of!
Good Luck =D -
Got Ipod touch wet and couldnt turn it off.
Hi, I accidently got my Ipod touch a little wet (and I mean a little). Problem was I couldnt turn it off as the touch screen wet physcho and I couldnt confirm turn off. So I had to listen to my Ipod touch sizzling and couldnt do a darn thing about it.
Electronic can behave strangely with liquids depending on what liquids the electronics are exposed to. If the liquid can conduct electricity that can be bad if a power source remains as the liquid will cause a short that can remain permanent if not washed off later. A "dendrite" can form that will act as a lossy wire across the circuits if a voltage potential remain long enough. The dendrite forms only while the circuit is wet. The best bet is always to remove the battery and just let it dry out over a period of time. In the case of the iPods, they all have internal batteries so you cannot remove the power source. If it is plan tap water your iPod will survive based on the purity of the water. The harder the water the worse the problem. If it is a drink, like a soft drink, your iPod is in trouble. The sugars and citric acids are really bad.
Actually, they used purified distilled water to clean the Printed circuit board in the factory.
The best way to see if you will live through the liquid is to let the unit dry out in a very dry place. The silica gel or rice idea will help as they dry out the air. Using a hair dryer is not a good idea as the heat can cause other issues. -
I am trying to take songs from my PC AND My Itunes account and send them to my husband's IPOD TOUCH First Generation BUT I don't want to change my whole ITUNES account that is already on my computer. When I plug HIS Ipod Touch into the PC, my ITUNES account wants me to CHANGE the DEVICE Name on the account and I don't want to do that. I only want to share SOME of my songs on my Itunes account and send them to h is IPOD TOUCH? Is this possible and HOW! Thanks a ton!!! I "checked" off the songs that I want to send but that's as far as I get before it asks me to change the Device Name?
Is his iPod usually synced to a different iTunes library/computer? If so, that would explain the message iTunes is giving you. An iPod is designed to sync with only one computer/iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it with a new library, the iPod's contents will be erased and replaced with what is in the newer/different iTunes library.
So if there is content you would like to add to his iPod, simply transfer it from your iTunes library to his.

My grandson delted all data from his ipod touch {thinking he was deleting his songs.] Now all he gets when he turns it on is a gray screen with an apple logo. We do not have it backed up nor was it ever turned on to itunes. We purchased it used from a co worker and didnt get that far.. Our computers do not recognise it as any thing nor does itunes when we have it plugged into itunes. Any way to fix this? Apple support will remote into our computer to fix it. For $ 99.00. Well needless to say he used all his savings to buy the ipod so ...... Any free ideas??
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

Yes. You can set the payment method to "None" once you log into iTunes on your PC/Mac. I have it set up this way.

Several years ago I got an ipod touch as a gift and set it up with my then current apple ID from previous apple products. Since then I got an iphone4s. When that got set up it got set up with a new ID because at the time, I couldn't access my old one because I had forgotten the passwords and the passwords to acces the email account to which the info would have been sent (a problem since solved.) I have a lot of music on my ipod that I would like to transfer to my iphone, but I cannot seem to sync it to my computer because it that music was downloaded from a differnt ID. Can I fix this? Some of the music are CDs that have since been damaged, and some is downloaded music I'd rather not pay for again.Thanks for the help!

I am not sure what it is that happened?
But, I think it was his Ipod that messed the computer installer up!
I can download Itunes, but I am not able to run it?
I also cannot run any other kind of programs on my computer since this had happened!
I finally got his Ipod to show the usb and the Itunes ogo but now can't re-install the Itunes to restore his Ipod!
If anybody has any ideas I will keep trying!
