You are not address ing Apple here, we are all just users like yourself.
If the headphones work but not the speaker:
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be 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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If the speaker still does not work, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. The Apple warranty is for one year unless you purchased the optional Applecare extended warranty

A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Replace the jack yourself

I have an i-pod touch, bought about 5 years ago. I used it for a bit and then left it unused for about 3 years. I cannot now get it to respond - it seems to have gone to sleep/died. It does light up with the apple icon and the 'plugging in' graphic when connected to my PC. When I have tried to unblock/restore it with the i-tunes tool, it goes through the process, but i-tunes eventually tells me that the restore is blocked. This is a shame, as I want to use the i-pad again, but it seems to be dead due to lack of use! Nothing else has happened to it - no bad use, no damage. Help?!
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 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.

See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281. I had the same problem, but solved it by holding down the home button and the on/off button for 10 seconds. If you are lucky, that will work for you as well!

HT2736 If I have already bought a song on iTunes, can I gift it for free?
I have an AppleID on which I have purchased 2 songs. Is it possible to gift these songs to my other account for free?
No, you can't gift content from your own account's library nor transfer content between accounts.
If you want the songs to be linked to your second account then you will either need to buy them on that second account, or gift them from your first account from within the store - for both you would be paying their purchase price again. -
I have bought Keynote on my ipad can i get it for free on my mac?
Hi, I have bout keynote, pages and numbers on my Ipad 4th gen. Should i be able to get it for free on my mac?
Not unless the Mac OS X version would normally be free. There's no credit in the Mac App Store for having purchased the iOS version of an application; the developer needs to create the two separately.

So i just got my ipod august 2012. about 1 month ago, my home button stopped working and my ipod is getting slower and slower. Would apple be able to fix it for free?
Ipods automatically have a one year warrany unless you have violated the terms. But you can pay to extend the warranty. It depends, they may fix it for free or they may charge a bit. Im not entirely sure. But id say theres a good chance that they may fix it for free. With battery replacements, ive heard that they give you an entirely new ipod with a charge of $80. So i think it depends

I have an A1288 ipod touch I bought about 3 years ago. I am currently trying to download an app however the I'm getting an error message which is essentially saying that the "ios" I'm using isn't up to date and the itunes summary says otherwise?
Other forums state I have to buy a new one but what happens when this happens again I think I'm moving to another brand this is crazy?Yes, there's a limit, and that iPod touch has reached it.

Why would you think this? That's an ignorant assumption to make.
Your media is only where you put it.
Either move it from the old computer or restore it from the backup of the old computer. -

Some apps are universal ( noted by the "+" symbol).
All others will only work on the ipad or iphone/ipod, not both.
