- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Hi. The buttons and wheel of my iPod 4th generation do not work. The hold button resets the iPod, and the shuffle shake works. The music plays by shuffling but I can't access albums etc due to the buttons and wheel not working.

    Did you restore from backup?
    Next would be to restore to factory settings/new iPod since maybe you have some corruption in the backup

  • IPOD 4th generation still not working properly

    Hi, I sent my ipod to assistance because of a problem, they did not spot the problem and they sent me back my Ipod...
    It still has the same problem:
    - during hot days the audio stop after making noises, it need to be cooled to start working again. this happens even if I hold my Ipod in my hand, after a while it overheat and stop working. I have to say that this really STINKS!
    What should I do?

    by the way, the fact that it is impossible to send a feed-back about the support procedure is really annoying... my Ipod still doesn't work properly and I have to waste a lot of time trying to contact again apple...

    he menu button of the ipod touch (4th generation) is not working and the service center of ipod is asking us to pay for the fixation of the said item even though it's still on warranty. this is the case number 215866894. And the service center said that they don't cover that center part of the ipod so they're asking us money before they can fix it. We bought the ipod last december 8, 2010 and we brought it to the service center last april, 2011 here in the philippines. And until now they're not fixing it because they're asking us to pay half the price of the item which is 8,040 pesos..

    As advised, you need to call Apple about this.

    No one here works for Apple (no one who will reply, anyway) so there's nothing anyone here can do to help you with this issue.
    Good luck.

  • My Center button on my Ipod 3rd generation is not working? What do i do it still goes up and down just doesnt select anything.

    My Center button on my Ipod 3rd generation is not working? What do i do it still goes up and down just doesnt select anything.

    What I had to was backup my device's data to either iCloud or iTunes. Once it was backed up I erased all of my settings as if my iPad just came out of the box. You set it up again and it will asked you to either start as new, back up from iTunes, or back up from ICloud. If you want to see if everything works you can set up as new, otherwise just pick the choice depending on where you backed up your information. Eventually it will restore all of your information and your iMessage and FaceTime should be working. It worked for me, if you'd like more/better instructions let me know!!

  • My ipod (4th generation) will not charge.I have tryed a wall cherger and charging on different computers.Nothing! what should i do?

    help me my ipod 4th generation will not charge. i have tryed a wall ataptor an other computers.What should i do? Should i get a new ipod or should i try and get a new charger and see if that helps.It has not been changing for two weeks straight now .Help Please.

    Either your USB cable for the charger has been damaged or the part of the iPod where you insert the USB cable is damaged. This usually happens due to water damage or carelessly removing the USB plug off from the iPod. Hope this clears some doubts
    You might also wanna try and check with the Genius Bar at Apple, they usually know whats wrong.

  • My iPod 4th generation isn't working as it should be

    Ok so, I've had my iPod 4th generation, version 6.1.6, 32GB, for about 2 years now, and it WAS completely fine.. But then it started getting slower and slower until some apps started crashing, I thought it was normal at first, thinking it was just because it was getting old, but by the start of 2014 my home button was starting to not work properly, more apps started crashing and it started getting so slow to the point that it was useless! then about a month or two after this year started, none of my apps worked e.g. If I went on a game it would only last about 5 mins then crash, or if I went on Facebook, Instagram, pic collage or any other type of app.. They would just crash In the matter of 5-10 mins. At first it was only the downloaded/purchased apps that did this.. But now even apps like camera, photos, maps, music and App Store crash to... And also my home button has completely stopped working, you can feel that the button doesn't press down anymore either.
    so, I've  heard ways to fix the problem by looking at all the other questions asked,But all of them are by resetting the iPod; and still keep all the apps although the data in them will go, or switching it off and on and stuff like that... But I've tried everything! Apart from resetting the iPod like new because I don't want to lose any of the data in the apps (and not just stuff like dates and written information, but game progress, and stuff on the actual purchased app).. I don't mind about the home button being broken because I've got that round circle thing on the screen to use.. It's just the fact that I can't go on any of the apps anymore and that the iPod is completely useless.. Please someone help? Anyway to fix this?

  • My ipod 4th Generation will not charge on my bose soundock 10

    Hi
    I have never wrote on a forum before please help. I brought The ipod 4th generation when they first come out in 2010 and brouught the sounddock 10 shortly after in the same year all worked perfect no problem, untill last week when the dock stopped charging the ipod everything else works plays music etc just won't charge. ipod seems fine. as it charges up via socket charger. went into local apple shop in birmingham city (not very helpfull) they said it not a problem with the ipod must be the dock. They suggested I did a Firmware update on the dock which I did from the bose website but It says my dock has the latest softwre already and the problem is still the same. PLEASE HELP as the apple store just don't want to know.

    If it worked before with iOS 5.1 then try the standard fixes.
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My Ipod 4th gen will not work without the charger.

    My ipod nano 4th gen will not work without the charger.

    How much it costs depends on who you have replace the battery whether that be Apple or a 3rd party repair company.  Here are Apple's prices.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    It would likely be much cheaper to have a 3rd party company do it instead.  One company I have heard a lot of good things about is iResq.  For others, do a simple Google search for "iPod battery repair" and you should get a plethora of results.

    I don't believe Radio Shack does offer that service.  Sorry.

  • My Ipod 4th generation does not have the app store!

    Hello i recently bought an ipod 4th generation that was 8gb but when i turned it on i noticed that there is no app store. the version is on 6.1.6 what can i do to make the app store appear again please help thanks!

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPod has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • IPod 4th generation will not turn on and its brand new!

    I just got my iPod touch. It is a 4th generation. I got it for Christmas of 2012. Now it wont turn on. I had left my iPod touch on the floor, my window was open, and it was very cold. I left it fully charged and I went to sleep and woke up and it wouldnt turn on. I didnt have music playing or the wifi on so that wouldnt be the cause of it not turning on. The coldness may have something to do with my iPod not turning on. It won't show up on the laptop and I'm scared the battery isnt working anymore. I am considering the thought of bringing it to the Apple Store. I dont want to get a new one cause I have a touch screen cover on my iPod. I hope someone comes up with an answer. Please help ASAP!
