My iPOD simply will not work. Period. Can anyone help?

I have had problems with my iPod ever since I got it, and it has never functioned properly, even with the use of support. My iPOD simply will not work. It will not turn on, or charge. My computer will not recognize it, nor will iTunes. I took it to an Apple store for repairs, and they marked my total charge time at a whopping 6 minutes before it died. I worked temorarily after I got it back, and it hasn't turned on since. It has never been dropped or mistreated.
Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong? Is there any way to get it replaced without having to spend to buy a new one, since mine never really worked in the first place? Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

"Is there any way to get it replaced without having to spend to buy a new one"
If it's under warranty, send it in for service or replacement. If not, then the answer's no.
Presumably you've tried all these?
iPod won't turn on.
iPod battery doesn't charge.
Your Windows PC doesn't recognize the iPod is connected.
"I took it to an Apple store for repairs, and they marked my total charge time at a whopping 6 minutes before it died"
So why didn't you leave it at the store for service or repair?
Sounds like a bad battery.

    Not with your current user id.
    Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
    Really?
    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

  • Mail simply will not work..can't scan and send, can't send photos, hung up with AOL/smap/amap ???

    Many mail functions go automatically to Mail rather than AOL which I prefer.  But mail will not work.....the little wheel spins and spins and spins.  Have no idea what to do.

    Many mail functions go automatically to Mail rather than AOL which I prefer.
    Mail/Preferences/General and set your default mail program.
    Do a backup.
    Quit Mail.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. Go to Library/Mail  Move the folder to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

  • My iPad will not download aps can anyone help please ?

    Hi can anyone help, my iPad will not download aps ?
    Just keeps saying unknown error ?

    I have tried signing out and back in again, no joy. I have also reset the iPad as suggested. Desktop and 2netbooks are working fine on the wireless connection. Apps won't download, initially I was able to disconnect from wifi and reconnect and that would solve it but not anymore.
    I am also getting an error message intermittently advising no Internet connection. This is all since the upgrade to 5.1.1 so it has messed with something.
    From a google search looks like I am not alone either.

  • Since installing ICloud, and updating IO, programs and websites close whenever I scroll, going back to home page. I have tried turning it off, but that does not work. Can anyone help me out? Also, the keyboard is very slow.

    Does anyone know anything about onsite specifics?
    I'm wondering where the onsite warranty can be in effect.  Like, can it be used in ANY city in the US?  Can it be used only in metrololitan areas?  What is a metro area in Lenovo's eyes?
    Does anyone know where I can get better and accurate info on the onsite warranty?  Like a coverage map would be very helpful.  Because why should I spend the money on it, if I can't access it?
    Looking forward to more info...thanks.
    There is no coverage map as such.
    I live in what is considered a rural area and had techs driving 60-70 miles one way to get to me, never an issue.
    Obviously, YMMV.
    In my not-so-modest experience, both onsite and accidental damage upgrades are worth every penny if one intends to keep their ThinkPads for an extended period of time.
    Good luck.

    Hello ArtyJP,
    You can give this a shot to correct the permissions on your computer. I know you have Windows 8, the Windows 7 will still get you in the right place.
