Probably dead if you have tried to charge it.
You should never try to charge or turn on a wet electronic device.
You should let it dry for a week or so, then try.

Ipod isnt working through headphone jack.

My ipod touch isnt working through the headphone jack. Simply said. How much will it cost to get something like that fixed? It works on the speakers inside the ipod, and everything with it is fine aswell. Its just the darn headphone jack.

It roughly will cost you about $50 in labor plus the cost of the part. you can check around for repair shop prices but this is about the normal price for this type of repair. if you like to try fixing it yourself check out youtube videos. if your not handy on working on electronics I would highly suggest that you let a professional do it.

The right side of my Ipod isnt working. Mother of god. How do i send this in?

So, tonight i got home and turned my ipod on for the first time all day, and I went to slide the lock thingy over, and it wouldnt work. I tried, and tried, and tried. Finally i just swiped the camera button up and clicked the home button and it went to my ipod home page.
Ok, the "W" and the "1" hasn't been working for a while now, so this means what? The problem is growing? Ahg, I have a 2 year warranty and im good for another year yet, how do i send this thing in? Whats the address and how do i go about doing it?
Let me know!! Thanks guys.

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Hold Button, Help my Ipod isnt working...

basically, the hold button is off, my battery is charged but my ipod wont turn on.
so i plugged it into itunes, and the lcd display is on, and the message 'do not disconnect' appears. If i discontect my ipod nano its on (with full battery life) but i cant use it as it thinks its on hold (even though the hold button is off).
Ive tried sliding the hold button on and off, but nothing happens
i cant do anything with my ipod, i cant even seem to reset it.
What to do!?...
nano Windows XP ive had it less than a year.

I had the same problem.
Just put ipod onto a flat surface.
Then believe in that it can be reseted.
Then do reset it.
It will help I think.
It helped me.

Had 1418 error.formatted as fat.not fat32.now ipod doesnt work.why?plz help

The iTunes keeps saying that:
"The iPod "IPOD" cannot be updated. The disk could not be read or written to"
"The iPod "IPOD" cannot be updated.
And when I tried to restore it.
"The iPod "IPOD" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1418)"
thats a dreaded problem and i researched at many forums on how to solve it.....
before reading ur reply....there were some other replies that i read.....
which told me to format my ipod into fat partition...and not fat32 partition....then we had to update it and then restoring it would be possible........
that was the only article which i came across and which had a solution to 1418 problem......
so i began my work....
but as soon as i formatted my ipod shuffle second generation into fat partition.......
i restarted my comp...and then.the ipod is no longer working.......
if i push it to on......then there is a constant green light on it which does not go off even if i connect it to comp. using the dock provided.......
if i put it off,the green light goes off....
ideally when an ipod shuffle is connected to pc..there is an orange light that starts blinking ,that shows that the ipod is being charged.
but now when i connect mine.....
the green light blinks only once......and then nothing happens...
the device isnt working and so i cant even solve my 1418 problem ,as now i even have the solution.......
help me plz....
its really urgent....
its been just a month my uncle gifted me this ipod ...he stays in north carolina........and i stay in india.....
i dont even know if there are service centres of apple available in mumbai.and if they are,whether they are trust worthy or the ipod that i send to them might never to me and get stolen or something.....somebody might just keep it and say that its lost.......mumbai is not trustworthy.
but if there is a recognized apple service centre then i would want to go there and get my ipod repaired....i have one-year warranty with me.......but i dont know if the warranty of a product bought in north carolina works in india......
i cant throw this ipod....cause its my first ipod and it has hardly been time that i got it...its too early for me to throw it.....
i dont know why the ****.....cant i connect it to the comp...
i tried the following: after getting 1418 read and write error...:
reinstalled the itunes 7.0.2
reinstalled the drivers......
reset the ipod shuffle...
restarted my computer several times.....
checked the cable....
plugged the usb cable onto another port...
scanned the comp for viruses......
now the only thing left is that i think.....there can be a problem with the jack where the dock is plugged.....
maybe thats the reason my ipod isnt working...
even if i formatted into fat partition rather than fat32 partition,it should atleast be connected......
should atleast charge.....
should atleast be detected......
my ipod is not even getting detected by the comp as any unknown device also.....forget as an ipod....
i just shouldnt have formatted it...
although i think....that formatting it did not lead to this problem......
please help me.......
urgently...........
plz.....
plz......send ur reply fast..plz help me.........
get this ipod to work......
i will fix the 1418 error myself....
just get this device to work....so that comp starts detecting that i have connected something thru usb.....

On top of the two suggestions already given, make sure that the drive letter being assigned to the ipod when you plug it in in windows is not also a drive letter being assigned to another drive. I've heard that this happens occasionally and can cause all kinds of conflicts, from problems you are describing to lockups when trying to sync.
I would also try it on a different computer to see if that helps. Maybe you've got a friend or a computer at work that you can install itunes on and give it a shot there. This will let you know whether it's a problem with your specific computer or if it's a problem with the ipod.
The fact that it runs in Windows and you were able to reformat the flash memory stick tells me that the Ipod is working, but that something on your computer is not.
P.S. Obviously you've had it for 90 days, So I must assume that the USB port is working correctly. Otherwise the Ipod's battery would have drained by now. So I don't believe it is a hardware issue. So move past that for right now and look to your computer's settings for the answer.

Ipod not working: in need of SERIOUS help!

Hi. Ocasionally my ipod freezes, so i have to wait untill my ipod dies, and recharge it. One day it froze, and while it was frozen i decided to charge it, and now it wont turn on. I tried everything; i held buttons, i flicked the hold button, and nothing is seeming to work. I just bought over $20 worth of new songs.. and im really upset my ipod isnt working. Please help me.
-Amanda.

I think your iPod is finished. It shouldn't have been "freezing" so much that you had to drain the battery, but now I suspect you've killed the battery as well (Li-On batteries don't like to be drained).
You didn't have to post the same thing under 4 different questions.
