My ipod touch has a short amount of battery life of around two hours, but i installed an app that tells you how much battery life left, it said 4 hours, how come? is my ipod touch battery faulty?

my ipod touch 8gb, ios 4.3.2 has a short amount of battery life of around 2 hours, but i installed an app that tells you the battery life remaining, it said 4 hours, how come? is my ipod touch battery faulty

Some useful info would be:
What generation is it?
How old is it?
If it's older than the 3rd generation, then the battery may have run its course (or iOS 4.3 is taking a toll on the battery).
If not, then you might have some issues leaving the wi-fi on and fetching data as well as running apps in the background that abuse location services and notification. Make sure those are off, or only running when necessary. If you see a small arrow in the top right corner (that isn't the music "Play" arrow), then you are currently running a location based service that can drain battery.
Also check your brightness settings, these can really pull battery life.

    You mean that you have put the iPod's Hold switch on, then off, and then press-and-held both the Menu and the Select (centre) buttons together for at least ten seconds.
    Have you made sure the iPod is charged?
    If you have tried the Restat procedure (above) three times, have you then tried connecting the iPod to your iTunes Library?

  • My ipod touch has 1.1 gb left of space on it. when i try to install an app thats 314 mb it gets three quarters of the way through and says my ipod has no space left. when i go to the storage it also says it has no space left. whats going on?

    To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.

    thank you,

    To give you something, I need something too, like
    How old is the Ipod? (if it is still under warranty, then send it to Apple service shop)
    Are you running Windows iTunes or Mac iTunes?
    What do you see on the iPod screen?
    My guess is, your iPod classic is more than 2 years old and out of warranty, and the hardisk has gone kaput! and need to be replaced.
    Have a nice day!

  • Is there an app that allows you to download and read pdf files on your ipod touch?

    Is there an app that allows you to download and read pdf file on your ipod touch (5G)?

    There are many apps that allow reading PDFs. GoodReader allows downloading some items. It all depends upon how the site handles the download. It also uses file sharing in iTunes.
    iBooks also reads and had file sharing.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    To reset the iPod without the hardware buttons,
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. All your wifi and bluetooth preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected. You will have to rejoin wifi networks and repair BT devices
    - Restore from backup. See:

    How much does it cost to get a glass replaced on an Ipod 5

    Apple at this time does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
    There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair". It is also possible to purchase parts and find instructions on doing a repair yourself, though it's not particularly easy. Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPod serviced by an unauthorized shop or perform a repair yourself, all further support from Apple will be void.
    Regards.

  • Is it possible to create a variable that tells you which slides the user has visited?

    Hi there.
    I'm working on a project where I want a slide to show a continue button and hide 2 textboxes, but ONLY when the user has already visited 2 other slides. I can only find variables that tell you the slide the user previously visited.
    Is it possible to set up a variable that does this?
    I want to create the following advanced action:
    If the user has visited slides 62 AND 87, show image_536 and hide text_caption_243 and text_caption_242
    I don't want the action to happen if only 1 of the 2 slides have been visited - it has to happen when both have been visited.
    Hope that makes sense.
    I'm using Captivate 7.
    Thanks.

    You will need two variables, it can be booleans. I'll label them v_one and v_two with a default value of 0
    Since I don't know how the slides are formatted, do you use a Next button or are all the slide frames visited? You'll need to have an event on those two slides to trigger an action:
    Assign v_one with 1     on slide 62
    And a similar action on the other slide to toggle v_two (do not use the toggle command, if the user visits a slide twice, it would be toggled back to 0).
    You didn't specify where those text containers have to be (please, label your objects and slides)? But you'll need conditional advanced action triggered by another event somewhere:
       IF v_one is equal to 1   AND
           v_two is equal to 1
      Show text1
      Show text2
