- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • My ipod touch speaker keep going in and out only when i talk

    I cant hear myself through my ipod its not water damage i dropped it a couple times but it just started acting like this

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    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.

  • When I turn on my ipod touch the screen goes white and stays white.

    When I turn on my ipod touch the screen goes white and stays white.  It plays but all I see on the screen is white.  I cannot change anything.

    It iTunes is asking to enter the passcode then:
    - A data recovery company may be able to help
    - Restore the iPhone from the backup of the iPod. You can then get the data off and then retore the iPhone from the backup of the iPhone.

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!! Oh and i have tried resetting my phone several times with no such luck.....
    Also side note my phone is really really slowwwwwwwww now!!
    thanx again

    But I do back up everything, as much as I am able...
    However, it seems to me I've got to shift everything back into iTunes - Again.
    if this is the norm, I would like to see - for others because now I know! - a little warning
    "Hi, We're iTunes, and you need an update. So please update, just let it be known however, then when you do - we'll delete your catalog and any playlists. Thanks for using iTunes"
    something like that, because now I've gotta re-load everything back... bolics I say bolics.

  • I just updated my Ipod touch to the newest software and now I can not get any of my songs to sync onto my Ipod. All of my songs were wiped from my Ipod but are still in my library and playlists on my computer, but when I click sync none of it works

    So I updated my Ipod touch to the newest software on my pc laptop which is windows 7. The software update wiped all of my songs and apps off of my Ipod. This is not that big of a deal because the songs and apps are still in my library and apps folder in itunes on my computer. The problem is, when I go to sync all my songs and apps back onto my ipod the tracks and apps are not syncing. It's almost as if the computer thinks all the songs are still already on the ipod but they are not. What do I do here?

    - Try resetting the iPod. 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.
    - Next, restore from backup.

    I have the same problem. I bought a 3rd party software (tunejack) and it allowed me to transfer my songs to my new pc. Now I can't play them because I am not authorized. It says I am but then it says im not.

    What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
    Without knowing that:
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

  • My iPod touch 4g doesn't saves photos. What can I do?

    I have an iPod touch 4g with iOS 6.1.3. A few days ago it has stopped saving photos. When I take them it looks like it worked, but when I go check the camera roll they're not there any more. What can I do?

    Try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue--possibly bad Home button switch.
