I do not understand what you mean?
With iOS 5 to remove an app from the recently used list (bottom row after double clicking the Home button) you tap and swipe upwards on the thumbnail of the app you want to remove. Swiping the app icon does nothing.

My ipod 5th gen won't change volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can change the volume on the speaker. How do I fix this?

My ipod 5th gen won't let me adjust volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can adjust the volume on the speaker. How do I fix this?

Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

- Have you tried when connected to other networks? Maybe the router is blocking the ports used by Safari and the other apps.
- What kind of network are you using? a personel or bussines?

My iPod 5th gen won't charge:'(

As stated in the tittle my iPod won't charge. I have looked at a lot of the similar posts but none of them are helpful. I can NOT get into DFU mode, I HAVE read both iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting and iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery pages, I HAVE tried another cable and another wall charger, I HAVE checked all connections/sockets on the iPod, cord, and wallcharger for debree, rust, or other forign materials, and I HAVE tried plugging it into my computer.
Just for clarification, my sister has an iPod 5th gen with the iOS 7.0.4 and her iPod charges on both mine and her cable/wallcharger/computer BUT my iPod does not charge on any combination of those. The nearest apple store is 1hr 29mins from me (I checked!)
Usually computers and tech do not elude my deductive skills but this has me stumped! Please help! Any of such is greatly appriecated!

Mine had been fading for a while before the warranty was up, and then became mostly unchargeable in the eleventh month.
I took it to a Genius bar where they were able to test it and swap it for a new iPod touch.
Just make sure you have done a very careful backup before you go, I have had weird sync problems after the swap, getting my stuff back.
I suggest the simplest method is to clear off just about everything you can, especially the photos. Less to chase when things go pear shaped.

My iPod 5th gen won't turn on!

My iPod 5th gen was working fine last night and after charging it won't turn on with power button today. I'm not able to reboot using home button and power button simultaneously because my home button stopped working couple weeks back and I was using touch screen for home function. Any suggestions on how I can reboot without the home button working? Thanks!

See this previous discussion:

IPod 5th Gen Won't Connect to Chargers

So I've had my iPod 5th gen with iOS 7.1.2 for a little over a year now, and recently I noticed it wouldn't connect to any chargers I had. I went online and bought a brand new lightning cable to find that that would not work either. Then I read about cleaning my charger port to get dust out, and I did that getting large amounts of debris out of there with a toothpick, but it still will not charge properly. The only way I can get my iPod to charge is to bend the cable (even the brand new one) in a certain direction. Can anyone help me?

Ipod 5th gen won't turn on buttons won't respond

I have a 5th generation ipod touch, I forgot to charge it the other day and tried charging it after I realized it had died. the rest/wake button wouldn't respond and neither would the home button. I tried holding both down for 10+ seconds and my screen was still black with no response from a charging dock or charger

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 another cable
- 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.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
You may have to:L
Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:

Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.

My ipod 5th Gen won't play some songs

5th gen. nano won't play songs that play perfectly fine in itunes library, help?
i have a new 5th generation nano and the most recent version of itunes. i just downloaded a bunch of songs that play fine in my itunes library but when i try to listen to them on my ipod, it immediately skips to another song. only a few of the songs that i synched actually play. i have tried deleting them from my ipod and my itunes library and then adding them back to the library and resynching but i am still having this problem. can anyone tell me what is wrong and what i can do to fix this? thanks for the help.

Check what format they're in and try converting them to AAC (you can do this by right clicking the song that isn't working & selecting create AAC version). I just started having this problem with MP3s that were playing just fine a couple of hours ago, so i converted them to AAC and now they work just fine. Hope this helps you.

My iPod 5th gen won't connect to internet, and symbol is grey. Help!

My iPod touch 5th gen ,with I.O.S 7.1.1, will not connect to the internet at all. If I go into settings the the wifi slider will not slide at all. And if I use the slide-up section of my iPod, that displays bluetooth, airlane mode, wi-fi ect, the symbol of wi-fi is grey. Please help. Have you encountered this problem, or have seen it before, can you show me how to fix it, because without wi-fi my iPod is essentially half useless.

IPod 5th gen won't turn on.

I have a 5th gen iPod. It had a full battery and I locked it. About a minute later I went to check the time and it wouldn't turn on. I have plugged it into a power source and into a computer and there's no response. It won't show up into iTunes and nothing happens when I hold the top lock button for an extended period of time.
The home button doesn't work so I've been using the accessibility home button for a little while so I can't hold both to force reset. What else can I try...?

YESSSS, ITS WORKING AGAIN.
Unfortunately I cracked the screen trying to un-jam the home button. It's minor and you can't even tell it's cracked though. Still completely useable. I'm just glad it's working again for now. I'm going to replace it with an iPhone eventually.

Ipod 5th Gen won't sync?

This is the 3rd Ipod i have attached to my Itunes, but for some reason it won't sync?
I've removed all of the previous devices from the account, but it just gets stuck at Step 6 (waiting for changes to be applied) and then cuts out. I had this for christmas, but i don't think i've managed to sync a single track yet. The only way i can get music onto it is to go through my "purchased" list on the store and re-download everything to the device, but with having bought new CD's, i can't do this and means i can't listen to my new music.
I've tried syncing over wifi, manually managing the music and just selecting just a couple of albums in the music tab of my ipod, but nothing seems to work? I'm on the latest software update (7.0.6) and i've just downloaded the updated itunes from this morning.
any ideas?
edit: just noticed that on the drop down box below, it's only listing my ipod 3rd gen as my registered products, but my 5th gen is showing as authorised on my account details, so now sut if this has something to do with it ?

ok, looks like i've sorted the problem - i just kept hitting the sync button and eventually it decided to play ball andis now copying 650 songs over wifi

IPod 5th gen won't charge with wall charger

I just recently purchased a 5th gen iPod touch. I had a little USB wall charger for my camera and decided to charge my iPod with it. It didn't work and it charges on a computer just fine so it isn't the cable. I then tried using my friend's Apple wall charger which worked for his iPhone 4 just fine. That didn't work either but my iPod will charge with a computer. Any ideas?

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

3 day old ipod 5th gen won't work! Scan and Fix spam message...

I have owned an ipod for about 6 years, upgrading to a new version whenever I could afford it, and for Christmas my father bought me the new 5th gen nano. The last one I had was a 2nd gen nano... I have always kept my itunes up to date and so on and so forth and I have used my new 5th gen for about three days when suddenly I plug it in today and; I start getting a spam of error messages saying that there is something wrong with the ipod and that I need to Scan and Fix it. When I click Scan and Fix it closes out and says that it can not read the disk. iTunes tells me that there s something wrong with my ipod and immediately ejects it before I can even restore it.
In addition, winamp also will not recognize the new ipod but it sees my old one...
I tried using the command prompt thing but I have no idea what driver my ipod is plugged into so I keep getting errors...
I have no idea what to do about this and I am not finding any answers, I'm getting pretty upset ):

IPod 5th gen won't play purchased tracks - my solution

Hey folks;
I recently came across the same problem some of you experienced. I bought a new iPod 5G and sync'd it with my iTunes music library. All my mp3-files and podcasts played fine but my purchased tracks were simply skipped by my iPod.
iTunes played them fine; just the iPod wouldn't.
Here's what I did to resolve the situation.
0. Make sure you have a backup-copy of the music files in your library. If not - do not proceed. // Write down which podcasts you have subscribed to.
1. Deauthorize your computer
2. Uninstall iTunes using the control panel in windows
3. Uninstall Quicktime Player
4a. Run "regedit.exe" and make sure all registry-keys regarding apple have been removed from "HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apple Computer, Inc."
4b. If they're still there; remove them (Right-click; select "Delete" and click Yes)
5. Delete the directory "C:\Documents and Settings\<YOURUSERNAME>\Application Data\Apple Computer" if its still present
6. Reboot
7. Re-install iTunes
8. Re-import your music into itunes from the backup-location, resubscribe to your podcasts and play a purchased song to re-authorize your computer.
9. Plug-in iPod and have fun.
This worked for me. So I'm just glad, that my iPod wasn't defective.

forgive me for my apparent stupidity, but I am not much of an IT person.
when you say to back up the music library, do you mean the itunes library or the ipod library? I have cleared my itunes library (to keep space on my pc free) and only have music saved on the ipod.
