  • My camera does not work on my ipod touch 4th gen. it just goes to a black screen i have done everything from resetting and rebooting... help :(

    I fell down the stairs the other day and busted my other ipod to the gamewerks near my house. the guy said he couldnt fix that ipod so he gave me a new one.. a better one a 32GB, the broken one was 8GB. but he told me the only bad thing is that the camera does not work and he doesnt know why... he just couldnt get it to workkk... any ideas on whats wrong?

    Try the following:
    - A reset. 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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

    I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, I honestly think this is out raging because i spend over $200 on this. To have for music and instagram. I use it about an hour a day, but i've only been using it for about 3 months although i've had it since December. Any suggestions that may help me?

  • Both cameras on my iPod touch generation 4 will not work anymore. Is there a way I can send it back to get it fixed? Thank you ..

    Both cameras (front/back) will not work anymore. I would tap on the camera app, and the camera shutters would stay closed for a while and when it finally opens, it leaves a full blank screen. Is there a way I could send it in and get that repaired?

    and does the sim from my mobile network o2 be used in the ipod touch4 to use the unlimited minuites i have from my mobile network provider  NO
    if not then how do i use the unlimited data ive been given through my mobile network provider please tell me most kindly  Purchase a mobile WiFi hotspot (Sometimes referred to as a MyFi), or have that service added to your cell phone.
       geeeeesar also how does this ipod touch4  pick up the  wifi free of charge is this possible or do you have to pay for limited data to access internet Your iPod can connect to any unsecured WiFi network that you are currently within range of.  These networks can be found at your local library, some city/county government buildings, doctor's offices, Denny's, IHOP, Starbuck's, Home Depot, Lowes, Best Buy, and other merchants.  Your iPod can connect to any secured WiFi network that you are within range of and that you have the password for. 
    thanks  can i pod touch 4 generation download movies too  please help thank u very much....  Yes.  If your iPod has a WiFi connection and you have an account with a service like NetFlix....

  • I have an Ipod 4th generation ipod with a broken screen: pretty much the entire upper trim is broken off as I can see the camera. Why does my Ipod touch screen only respond in the very middle? Top and bottom work not left or right.

    When the Ipod touch 4th Gen first came out, I got this ipod. About 6 months later, it fell out of my pocket and the top of the screen broke to the point where I can see the camera. The ipod worked perfectly fine for a long time untill about 8 months later when I started having issues with the Ipod. I still was able to unlock and use it but it was hard to unlock. It worked fine when it opened but unlocking it for some reason difficult. Now, I cannot unlock it at all and I am only able to press the play button for music (double-tap home) and press cancle (in the dead center) for a soft reset. Im trying to figure out whats goin on and as of now i have no clue. I have tried resetting it and am in the process of restoring it completely. Is there any possible way that this is just a glitch that can be fixed or is it done for good because somethings broken? I'ld like to know before I really put more time into this.

    Becaise the digitizer is broken in that area
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

  • My camera for my ipod touch is not working

    i can click on the camera app but when it comes up the shutter stays closed please help

    if that does not work try this: this will delete the ipos touch.
    1. First, Open up iTunes, plug in your iPod Touch to the CPU*'s USB port. Turn on your CPU's speaker and make sure it is loud enough that you can hear it.
    2. Hold down the power button (top right) and the home button (located on the front bottom of your iPod Touch) simutaneously, until the screen goes black and the device turns off. (past the red slider/slide to power off screen)
    3. Now let go of the Power button, but continue to hold the Home button. Your iPod Touch should have turned off and the screen should not be on.
    4. After around ~10-20 seconds, you will hear a noise (beep/ding) from your CPU as if it had just recognized a new hardware device, now iTunes should recognize it in DFU mode.
    5. After iTunes recognizes the iPod Touch, let go of the Home button otherwise it will go into recovery mode and you will have to do the entire DFU process over again.
    6. You will know when you have put your iPod Touch correctly into DFU mode when the display is blank and that you do not have anything on your device.
    7. Restore your iPod touch with itunes.
    *CPU= Computer

  • I did every step including reinstall intunes to get my IPod touch to sych with intunes and not show up as a camera and nothing works. I even updated the device drivers. Genius bar at apple store told me the ipod was fine, the problem was my intunes. Help

    I did every step including reinstall intunes to get my IPod touch to sych with Itunes but it fail to recognize it as anything other than a camera. It still recognize my Ishuffle as a device. The Genius bar as an Apple store told me the Ipod worked on their Apple PC, my pc is not an apple, I attemped every step to rectify the situation including updating the device drivers. I wonder if I need to eliminate every old residue with the word Apple in it on my computer to get it up and going again. Please help !

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • Hiya, my ipod touch 4th generation cameras are not working.

    Hiya, my ipod touch 4th generation cameras are not working. I had the screen replaced about a month ago and it was working fine.  I woke up the other day and went on my camera and it had stopped working, it won't let me change from the front to back camera so i don't know what the problem  is: now all it shows when i go on the camera app is the shutter or a black screen. I have tried the advice people have said but it hasn't seemed to work. Any help would be appreciated!

    However, it other than Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider did the previous screen replacement , Apple will not help.
    For the future, saying that you tried the advice people have said, provides us with zero information as to what yu tried.

    Well, there is always the possibility that it's been jailbroke, in which case, you're out of luck.  However...
