No available eq setting is acceptable.
Right now, I feel like driving a nail through it.

Me again. I cleaned out the headphone jack with a q-tip soaked with rubbing alcohol. Most of the q-tip fibre was removed to be able to insert it into the jack. After pushing and turning fairly vigorously for a half minute, I pulled it out and a large piece of pocket lint came out with it as well. The Ipod now sounds excellent.

  • On my ipod touch it always shows cannot connect to the internet how can I get it to connect?

    On my ipod touch It shows i am connected wifi and have put in the correct password yet it says i am not connected to the internet.When i try to go on my appd or itunes it is stuck on loading. And so I reset it in my settings now all my apps are blank but when i click on them they are there but i have to sign in to itunes.

    If Restrictions are set for Safari, iTunes ect, theh apps are hidden which is not the case for the poster.
    Try the following:
    - Reeet. 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.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset> Reset Network Settings

  • TS1967 My iTunes library no longer has all of my music or playlists. When I click "On this iPod" it shows everything, but it's greyed out. How can I get my iTunes library back to normal?

    I am not sure why, but everything in my library is gone. I no longer see my songs, or my playlist.
    When I click on "on ipod" in my itunes, it shows everything how it should be, but it's grey so I can't click on anything. Is there a way to transfer all of that to my itunes again? Or is there a setting for this? I am so confused, I have no idea how/when this even happened!

    Hello MeggiePie86,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. Before you go through the process of importing your music from your iPod, check to see if the music is already on your computer.  Check in the Following path C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
    Where are my iTunes files located?

    If there is media there, then import that into your iTunes library.

    If you need to transfer your music back from your library, you can transfer purchases that have been made through iTunes.  This article will assist with that process.

    Hello guys, hope u all r fine but im in trouble. I mistakely restore my ipod touch and then i lost my important notes and contacts. I need to get it back so i need you guys to help me out. Hope if anyone can help me out. Please.

    Have you tied restoring from backup?  If you go to the Devices tab in iTunes' Preferences, does the date of the backup correspond to before you had you problem?

  • HT5622 I have changed my appleID and password through my laptop.  I have then changed it on my iPod Touch in settings. When I try to update my apps on the ipod touch it keeps throwing up the old appleID.  How can I get the iPod Touch to use the new ID?

    I have changed my appleID and password through my laptop. I have then changed them in my iPod touch settings in "iTunes & App stores" When I try to update my apps it fails because it wishes to continue to use the previous ID.  What do I have to do to make it accept the new ID?

    If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • Hi all, just downloaded a security update on my new iphone 4S.  The phone may be more secure but all the Aps icons have been downgraded in quality. Why would this be and how can I get smart looking aps back? Regards Steve

    Hi KiltedTim, as a newbie to Apple, iphones and forums I would appreciate an explanation of the 'Trolls and Mods' comments on your posting.  I presume the Mods are Apple sentinels but am I really a Troll just because I made a criticism of the new iOS version (even though I did not know I was actually doing that).  Am I a Troll to you because you personally disapprove of criticism of the new iOS or is Troll used by the community to describe anyone who speaks up if they are not happy about a change.  Please understand that by asking these questions it is not my intention to be confrontational (I’ve been called far worse than a Troll over the years) but as I’m new to the group an insight into the politics may be beneficial.  I’m an Old **** who isn’t technically gifted and may need the help of this group in the future so I don’t want to stand on anyone’s toes. Best regards Suttertonsteve.  

  • How can I get my music from a digital book onto my MAC?

    I purchased an album from iTunes using my iPad and now that I want to add it to my daughter's Nook from Mac its not giving me the music to download only the Digital book. How can I get my music and add to my library?

    It sounds to me like the option to  "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" was turned off in the iTunes -> Advanced preferences when you added the tracks from the flash drive, so iTunes left them on the flash drive rather than copying them to your computer's hard drive. Get Info on any of the tracks and see where iTunes thinks they should be located. If they're pointing to the flash drive, check that preference.
    If that is indeed the problem, you'll need to fix the location. You can do this track by track if there aren't too many, but if there are a number of them, it'll be easiest to remove them from the iTunes library, fix the above-mentioned preference, and add the tracks again. Or you can just keep the flash drive connected to your computer, but that's probably not ideal.
    Regards.

  • I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. after much prompting. Now my music is gone! (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back on it??

    I updated my iPod Touch to 6.0.1. -- after much prompting from iTunes. Now my music is GONE (along with apps, photos and podcasts). After syncing a bunch of times some of it came back, but not all of it. How odd is that? How can I get my music back?? I'm really bummed! Everything shows in iTunes, but it's not synching right. So glad I updated. NOT.

    Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
    When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
    Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
    It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.

  • I have all my music on an external media drive that has crashed. How can I get the music of my ipod touch back onto the comupter without loosing the music when it syncs?

    I have all my music on an external media drive that has crashed. How can I get the music of my ipod touch back onto the comupter without loosing the music when it syncs. in order to start rebuilding my music collection?

    You should be able to recover the media with the tips in  this post from forum regular Zevoneer but I'm not sure what the implications are for your application settings. You can probably transfer your purchases into a newly authorised library, backup the device, recover any other media using third party tools, then restore the device from the backup. That should switch the assocation of the device to the new library but it is not something I've personally tested.
    When you get it all working, make a backup!

    I lost my iPod touch 32 GB a month ago, and today I got a new iPod touch 64 GB. While syncing it with itunes, I got my music library, books and purchased items back, but I didn't get my photos and videos.How can I get my old photos back in my new iPod?

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

  • I have an iPod touch version 4.2.  how can I get my music from here to my computer or iPad or the cloud?

    how can I get my music from my iPod touch version 4.2 to the cloud so I can listen to it on my iPad or computer? I tried a manual transfer from iTunes but that doesn't work.

    - For iTunes purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    In iTunes 11 use Control+B to show the Menu bar then go to iTunes>File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    - For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

  • How can i get my music off of my email to my iPod touch 2nd gen and iPod 4th gen?

    How can i get my music off of my email to my iPod touch 2nd gen and iPod 4th gen?

    Find an app to which you can save the attachment and which also uses file sharing
    iOS: About File Sharing
    or similar to get the music into your computer. Import into iTunes library and sync to the iPod. There is no direct way to get music into your iPod Music app besides purchasing  from iTunes or syncing from your iTunes library
    GoodReader should work but I do not think it is available for the 2G

  • My iPod touch is telling me I need to restore to factory settings. How can I get my music off of it before this happens?

    My IPod it telling me to restore factory settings. I know this will cause me to lose all of the music on it so far. How can I get the music off of it before I restore the settings? I really do not want to lose thousands of songs.

    What is telling you that and what is the wording?
    Can you make a backup via iTunes:
    iOS: How to back up
    Can you transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    If not then there is nothing you can do except restore the iPod and thus erase the iPod.
