My iPod touch 4g is messed up.

My iPod touch 4G has a problem.  I have 2 iPod Touches.  One is updated to ios 4.3.3 and the other one is an unknown software.  i cant get into it.  It wont "activate"  my other iPod had to be connected to the computer and this one does it wirelessly somehow.  It says:  "This device is not registered as part of the iPhone developer program.##br####br##If you are a member of the program, please register your device in @@url@@."
               Please tell me whats wrong

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipod Touch 4G sound messed up

    So my iPod Touch 4g is about 1.5 years old. There was a while where I wouldn't have earbuds or headphones, so I didn't listen to music for a while. Then I got my car that has an aux port. I plugged in my iPod and played music just fine. But, I just bought a pair of skull candies and when I plug them in and try to play music, the music sounds weird. Let's try Whistle by Flo Rida. Right now, in the beginning, I can hear the guitar, but the whistle is very faint and hard to hear. And the little bass beat in the back, I can't hear that at all. Flo Rida at first sounds just fine, but in the verses, His voice sounds monotone, but the background voices come through. The only part that sounds like it should is the "can you blow my whistle" part. Other than that, It's all messed up. I know it's not the earbuds, cause they work just fine in my laptop, same song, same iTunes library. In the settings on my iPod, I've got it set for no sound check, and no EQ.
    Now for the weird part, I can get it to sound just fine. All I have to do is go into the accessibility settings and change the balance to either the right or the left. and the second I take it off center, everything sounds fine. Sound's even coming out of both earbuds at the same time/volume (mono doesn't do this, it just gets extremely quiet). But there are songs that utilize both left and right channels, and changing the balance, makes it so I can only hear the left or right side of the song. That's not right. Changing the balance should make it so sound only comes from the left or right earbud, not left or right side of a song. Like in "Good Feeling" by Flo Rida 2:43 into the song, with the techno thing going on (my favorite part, I just like how they do it) I can only hear one side of it, out of both earbuds.
    I'm going to do a full restore on my iPod (haven't had the time to, and I really don't want to, as I don't want to lose anything.) and if that fixes anything, I'll post it. If I don't then feel free to post your own opinion, and I'll give it  a shot.

    - 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.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • My ipod touch music is messed up.. How do i fix it?!

    Hey. My ipod touch wont play some music tracks..They are songs that i ahve recently play before but now they wont play. The ipod will play some songs perfectly then not play others at all. It will say its playing but then wont play it will just sit there or it will say its playing one song then play another. And more stuff.

    You probably will need to take or send the iPad to Apple and pay for replacement. But tell us what you mean by "color is messed up" and perhaps there's a suggestion we can make short of replacement.
    Regards.

  • Why is my iPod Touch 4th generation messed up?

    My Ipod Touch is playing the music, but when I go to the music tab and select the "songs" tab, I've seen it has 985 songs, yet when a song is playing the song list changes when a song is playing saids I have 969, but on itunes I have 990. So what is going on with my iPod?

    I do not think the iPod is killing your USB port. the port/computer have overcurrent protection that prevents computer damage by a short in a USB device. If you have a short or other device problem causing the device to draw too much power, the computer will disable the port and you will get a messages saying the device is drawing too much power.
    SInce it happens with other cable, it has to be a problem with the iPod, likely the connector on the iPod.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • All the apps on my new iPod touch 5 are messed up.

    On Instagram I can't post videos or pictures and it keeps telling me that all the posts are from 2h ago but when I look on my phone it says 1sec.It is doing this with Twitter and Vine app. I just got this iPod for my birthday so it's strange that my apps would be doing this. I have shut down my iPod multiple times and uninstalled the apps and turned off and on the wifi and nothing worked. I thought it was just an app problem but since it's happening with all of the apps I'm thinking it's my iPod can anyone help?

  • Last ipod touch update messed up my album covers

    The last Ipod touch update has messed up my album covers of songs I transfered from CD. a long time ago after purchasing my ipod I learnt how I could change the artwork from a boring musical note to the respected album covers the songs came from and this method no longer works.
    Although I should share that method which was to basically click on the first song on the album (for example "Come Together" on Abbey Road) and then hold ctrl and hit the last song on the album (in Abbey Road case it is "Her Majesty") thus highlighting the all the songs on the album and then changing the artwork there. As stated this method no longer works, I've tryed about 3 times and although it fixed a few songs (about 6 out of the 150ish that were altered back to default after the update).
    Is there anyway to change it because I have a mild OCD that makes me want to see the artwork upon it changing songs as I use my ipod on a daily basis.
    Other infomation that may assist in answers:
    -The album artwork does indeed show on the album list screen, just not on most songs upon playing them
    -All the songs that the album artwork altered during the update were purchased by other means to Itunes and then transfered to itunes. (CDs in this particular case)
    -There all albums apart of the Beatles Box Set that I was luckily gifted at christmas.
    -The Ipod touch, I believe its the latest one, it has the two cameras on it, not sure I don't follow up with the "improved" versions of Apple products
    -My itunes is running on a PC (masterrace) not Mac.
    Thank you if you answered responsibily, and if you responded like a tool then I dislike you.

  • My Ipod Touch is broken how can I fix it?

    My ipod touch has been messed up for a while and I have already sent it in to the apple company once and I think they gave me a new one. It worked for about 2  weeks perfectly fine well then it started to freeze and every time I stopped playing with it for only a minute it would comepletely shut down and I had to press the home button and the power button for about 15 to 20 seconds sometimes it would not turn on at all and I would have to leave it alone for a while and then try it again.I also tried completely charging it and then playing on it and I would set it down for a minute try to turn it back on and it would say that it was dead right after I charged it all night. Well anyways I was tired of it freezing and shutting down and not turning on so I thought restoring it may help well I did that and now it says that the device is damaged and can not be activated for service. Well one time I set it in my sisters purse and when I took it out it had a crack and I am thinking that maybe that is what is causing all the problems, but the problems started before It got a crack in it. So I am not for sure what it is. Is there anyway to fix this without having to pay to get a new one?  Can I send it to the apple company if I can not fix it even with the crack in it?

    Apple will fix it with the crack but all repair will have to be paid for.  The crack really ends your warranty for all problems.

  • What's wrong with my 2nd generation ipod touch?

    Recently my ipod has been messing up alot. A couple of months ago the sound was not working at all, I couldn't play music, or vidoes, everytime I would press on a song it would just go back to the music menu and it was completely mute. I restored it 5 times and nothing worked, finally I decided to turn it off and on and it worked. Everytime it would die i'd have to keep turning it off and on for it to work. Then one day the sound just stopped again. I tried turning it off and on and nothing. Then i restored it and the sound came back on and everything worked again. Also whenever i plug in my headphones some of the sound still plays through the ipod speakers, and I know it's not my headphone because they work perfectly fine when plugged into anything else. Also everytime I update it, it gets stuck on the connect to itunes menu and I have to restore it. Any suggestions at to why my ipod touch is so messed up? Is anybody else having these weird problems? I haven't dropped it in any water at all and I haven't dropped it in a long time plus it has a cover. Thank you so much.

    First of all, as for your sound, based on your description, I am pretty sure your headphone jack is broken and not working. Restoring your iPod Touch and rebooted it only fixes the technical issues and not the hardware issues. Sounds like some sort of damage internally on your iPod Touch. Take it to your closes Apple store and let them take a look at it. I suggest that this is your best bet because your OS (operating system) on your iPod cannot work with your hardware issues.

  • Why is my iPod Touch messing up the music library?

    Hello,
    My iPod Touch is having weird issues with the Music library. I think it started in 5.0.1 but it may have been from 5.0, I'm not too sure about it.
    Problem description:
    My problem is that my Artist list is corrupt, and my Album list as well. Let me give an example.
    Artist list, Alphabetally according to my iPod:
    I
    Iron Maiden
    Jurk
    J
    Incubus
    Jamiroquai
    K
    Linkin Park
    L
    Liquido
    Kamelot
    As you can see, these artists aren't properly sorted alphabetically. I've tried looking at the Info on those files but my iTunes on my iMac shows the proper order just fine, it's the iPod that's messing up. Also my albums seems to be able to appear under different bandnames, sometimes the full album but sometimes only a couple of songs.
    What have I tried so far?
    I've tried resetting its settings by going into Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset settings. All that did was messing up my library even more. I had about 18 GB's of music on the iPod but my library suddenly showed only about 25% of that. When I checked the content via Settings -> General -> Info (or About?) it said I had only abou 2 GB's of music on it. However, when I connected the iPod to my iMac, my iTunes told me I still had all 18 GB's on the iPod.
    I've tried removing music from the iPod-iTunes sync, and adding it after a sync. Although this did make an artist re-appear, it seemed to mess up the library even more.
    I've just tried restoring the iPod. It's been cleared entirely, and then I re-sync'd all my 18 GB's of music and a couple of apps. However, now the library is messed up as previously mentioned.
    What am I looking for?
    Any advice of tips on how to correct my music library. The alphabetical-order-that's-messed-up is only a minor issue because they're still there, it just annoys me that it's not the way it should be. The albums that are messed up between bands is more annoying because now I can't properly play full albums.
    Thank you for reading this rather long message, and hopefully you can help me out.
    Kind regards,
    Roald

    Hey, Roald.
    I'm not entirely sure this will help your problem, but since it sounded a lot like my own issue, I thought I'd mention it -- just in case.
    I updated my ipod recently to iOS5 and just noticed that some of my artists were messed up -- not necessarily listed under the wrong letter, but some were repeated in both English (as I have them in iTunes) and in Japanese, elsewhere in my music list, which was completely surprising. It also made some of my music show up under completely different names, like the composer instead of the soundtrack, etc. I searched iTunes, in the preferences, and the syncing screen, looking for some sort of setting -- but found nothing.
    Eventually, I checked my ipod's actual settings for the 'music' app. There's a setting there that says something like 'sort by album artists', which appeared to have been switched on automatically with the OS update. I flicked it to off and restarted the ipod -- and the ipod's issues were fixed. :3
    I don't know if this might be a solution to your problem, but try it anyway! I hope it helps.

  • 4.3.2 update messed up my ipod touch... same issues peple complained about with 4.3.1

    So the last update 4.3.1 that everyone complained about worked fine with my ipod touch... it was working great actually. Then I did the update for 4.3.2 and crash and burn... now I am having all the issues that people were complaining about with 4.3.1...
    Battery life is much shorter than before
    Cover art flow is messed up- most of the albums show up as a pixelated mess
    Photo library is messed up- the images do not line up in the grid and are all cut off or look like tiled multiple images
    When listening to music and the screen shows the full size cover art- the art shows up looking "tiled" not a full centered image.
    The screen is kind of glitchy, like it freezes up for a second before doing what it needs to do- for example when the lock screen is on and you unlock it it kind of has this delayed reaction before changing.
    Also, the combo of the update and the new itunes is totally screwed up... I am using windows 7 and can't decide if this is a weird windows issue or itunes and the ipod updates, but when I plug in the ipod to sync it will either wipe out all of my music and apps or will instantly freeze and I have to force quit. My back ups no longer work with the new updates, so I had to re-download all of my apps...  And when I can get itunes to work for a moment and I sync music the songs usually cut out randomly or skip- so to solve that I resorted to using media monkey- but this doesn't fix the artwork sync issues.
    Having spent several hundred dollars on an ipod, i expect this stuff to work!! and it would be great if it worked with the programs as intended, but maybe I have high expectations.
    Has anyone else had any of these problems? I am feeling like I might just have to suck it up and deal.

    Mine has been doing the exact same thing. It messes up even more with each stupid update they do. One thing that I have found helps is restoring my ipod.

  • HT4623 My old school iPod touch won't update.  Does apple mess it's customers over by not allowing updates for older models of the touch?  My last update is Ios5.  My touch says its up to date.  So has my old school touch reached its pinnacle?

    Correct. The 3G iPod does not have the hardware to support an iOS version higher than 5.1.1
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was releases, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • I updated my ipod touch to 5.0.1 but now all my artists in my music are messed up. Help?

    I updated my ipod touch to 5.0.1., and it works great except for one thing. All my artists are messed up, it's like my ipod while it was updating, took the time to go online and look up exactly who sang what. For example i had tons of disney songs, like the lion king's circle of life, the little mermaid's kiss the girl, ect into one artist that i named "Disney". But now they are all seperated into "Lion King Soundtrack" and that kind of stuff. Also, for example this one band, NeverShoutNever has many ways to write their name: Never Shout Never, NeverShoutNever!, NEVERSHOUTNEVER, and in my ipod they are all put as 3 different artists. But on my itunes playlists it doesn't do that.
    How can i put it back like i had it? It's very annoying and very confusing. Please help!

    You can try unsyncing all the music and then resyncing. Sometimes that works. Sometimes not.  This ia problem with iOS 5/iTunes 10.5
