  • Why does my ipod touch keep making weird noise when i plug in my headphone and when i put music it sound fuzy

    The other day when I was on my iPod touch (8 GB) I put on music but then something when wrong. When I plug in my headphone and put music on, it sounded like I was hearing music under water, and it sounded fuzy and weird. Then I unplug the headphone from my iPod touch (8 GB) and I got my computer and plug in my headphone and put music, and it sounded fine. What should I do about 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

    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

  • My ipod touch makes a strange noise when makes the synchronization with itunes

    At first my ipod touch began doing strange noise in differents situations. Yesterday I try to solved it doing this: I connected it to itunes a made a restore. I thought it was solved, but today the noise came back.  I could identify when it happens. If the ipod is off and I plug the usb cable, itunes starts and the ipod turn on, then the first thing it do is connected to the wifi network, then syncronizations began and the strange noise is heard.
    Some idea?
    Do you think it would be neccesary to visit an apple store to solve it. My ipod is even covered by warranty.
    Thank you very much.

    Hey DerikK,
    Maybe you could help me too..
    I receive this two- tone sound all the time i' m recharging my new ipad.. It produces sounds and the charging icon is keep on turning off an on. I checked cables, plugins- that works with ipad2 but produces odd sounds with new ipad((. What  might cause this problem?
    P.s. it might start producing sounds after 5 min recharging..
    Thanks in advance,

  • IPod touch 4g makes "hiccup" noises when music is playing?

    Hi, recently my iPod Touch 4g started making "Hic" sounds when I'm listening to music. At first, I thougt it was the headphones, but after changing the headphones, the same thing occured.
    I'm certain it's not the song file or the headphones.
    Any ideas?

    Ended up calling Apple.
    Getting a replacement iPod.
    Thanks for all the help.

  • Ipod Touch music playback: blip noise?

    Does anyone else hear a short blip noise at the beginning of a track when manually starting a song or skipping through tracks?
    Continuous/gapless playback works fine for me, no blips or squeaks.
    This used to happen on my 2nd gen ipod nano, then a software update fixed it.

    Hi Jason,
    It's happening on all tracks- ripped from CD or bought from iTunes.
    Restore didn't fix the problem.
    This is actually my second ipod touch- the first one had this same problem, so I exchanged it for another hoping it was just a bad apple. But the newer one has the same issue unfortunately.
    Any other ideas? Maybe I should just wait for a software update?
    Thx

  • NOTHING i do to this Ipod touch is making the BLANK WHITE SCREEN go away......

    Please help! I now hook my ipod touch up to my P.C, and it is NOT RECOGNISING my ipod!! Heres the problem AGAIN, let me make myself a little more clear on WHAT a stupid thing i did earlier..... I receieved a message (ON MY IPOD)  saying a new version of I.O.S 6 is available, so it says I needed at least 50% charged, OR had to be plugged in, so I PLUGGED in, and hit the button to update to newest version, then did what I had to do, came BACK to the iPod at 30 min later, and the bar seemed to not be moving, and i had to go to work, so i FORCED A SHUT DOWN by holding the home and the top button together, as i normally would to shut the thing down if something was jammed or whatever....so I did that, and it came back on BY ITSELF with the apple sign, then 5minutes later, the blank screen came up, and NOW every single time I TRY shutting it down, it WON'T STAY OFF, it comes right back on to the apple sign, then back to blank screen every time, can't get it to stay off! And now when I hook to my PC, it's not recognizing the iPod, I don't know how to recover it, cuz the iPod WON'T STAY OFF for me to do it!! And another thing, i let the ipod die completely, then plugged it in to charge, then it came back on as usual by itself, and still done the same thing!! All because i stopped an update in the middle of it updating!! It seems as if i wiped it completely out! But theres gotta be a way to restore??? need to speak with someone on the phone, cuz I don't have the money to spend right now on an apple support person!

    Please please READ what I have written before u respond,PLEASE!!because I MANUALLY STOPPED THE UPDATE TO IOS 6 WHILE IT WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING (by forcing shutdown in the middle of it all..) and when it turned back on it went right to the white blank screen and has been that way EVER SINCE!! i cannot put in recovery mode, cuz every single time I SHUT my ipod down (by holding the power, and home button at the same time till it shuts down...) it DOES NOT show me the slide bar to power off, and it immediately shuts down (goes black..) then immediately STARTS BACK UP BY ITSELF and shows the APPLE LOGO for about 5 minutes, then goes RIGHT BACK TO THE WHITE, BLANK SCREEN!!!! It will NOT STAY OFF, it WILL NOT SHOW ME THE SLIDE BAR TO POWER OFF MANUALLY, and when I force shutdown, it immediately comes BACK ON BY ITSELF!! And then nothing but white screen! My PC COMPUTER will NOT recognize the iPod as being plugged into USB on my computer for me to RECOVER this IPod, so I do not know what else to do???  I have updated to the latest version of iTunes, and STILL NOTHING!!! This is my kids iPod that I screwed up here, and I am very upset! It's a 4th gen, 32gb iPod touch that is NOT CHEAP at all, and I am freaking out man!!! What do I do?

    Have you tried a Reset of the Device...
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release the buttons...

  • Ipod touch/Itunes making PC lock up

    Guys,
    I am after some advice. I have had a new 32gb ipod to replace my old 5th gen pod for about 3 months. I am running a windows pc with XP and never had any issues with my old pod with this. But since I have made the last 2 updates to itunes & touch 1st tunes would take an age to show my touch (this was sorted with the last relase) and now with my new 2.02 update to the touch my pc seems to lock up about every 30 mins. I have a nightmare updating to the new software as it locked my system mid update and I had to do a complete restore now I am adding all my music back to my touch but it keeps on freezing my pc so I have to turn off the pc and start again lucky for me its not losing the music I replace each time !
    So any advice would be great like is there a clash in the touch software with windows is there something I am missing ??? Should I disable my wi fi on my pod before connecting to the pc ?? I am not great with tech but know a little but this is starting to annoy as no other programs make this happen.
    Many thanks in advance

    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to the iPod and iPhone. However there are a few third party utilities that are advertised as iPhone and iPod Touch compatible which can be used to retrieve the music files and playlists etc. Have a look at the web sites and help pages for these ones and see what you think or check the web for reviews:
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

  • Problem with my iPod classic 160gb - making funny noises, and no download

    Hi, At the same point every time i try to put music on my ipod classic 160gb, it begins to make a funny noise, and itunes and the ipod freezes. I have to disconnect it unproperly, and the message "The ipod disk could not be read from or written to", but my old music still remains. So i tried to restore the ipod on my macbook, but i still have the problem.
    This is the 4th Ipod classic 160gb i have had, and there has been a harddisk problem with all of them, so this could be the problem, but the funny click-clack sound is new to this one.
    Anybody in here have experience with such kind of problems?
    Hope to get the problem solved soon.
    Oliver Nash, DK.

    Unfortunately, when a hard drive starts clicking that means it's going bad. The mechanism is having trouble reading the drive. Since the iPod is mostly just a harddrive and a battery I have a feeling that this is your problem.
    watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMm6c3fr-fU
    about 25ss in is where the clicking starts. If it sounds like that, but softer and more muffled since it is a smaller drive that is being enclosed then I think you might be SOL. Maybe if you're iPod is still under warranty you can get a credit and go for a touch and avoid moving parts all together?

  • Ipod touch doesnt get recognized by windows or itunes?

    okay so just recently i would plug in my ipod touch and the little noise windows makes to say that something has been plugged in rings except itunes wont recognize it or windows will make it seem like its not even there like its plugged in but a ghost HELP PLEASE!

    This may not be your problem but I though it might be worth mentioning. I was having the same problem until I realized I had bought a second usb cable since a family member was always borrowing mine. I spent several days going crazy because my ipod touch was unable to sync with my PC. I finally swapped the new cable for the old and things worked fine.
    I discovered that the new cable was only for recharging the battery and not syncing!!! It was only upon looking at the cable packaging that it said in fine print - for charging only!!!
    I have no idea why they don't state that more clearly on the outer packaging.
    Good luck!

  • My ipod touch switchs off

    My Ipod touch keeps making a camera shutter sound and then flashes and then cuts off. It will not cut back on when I try to start it.  I reset it by holding the on/off button and the center circle.  It flashes then the reboot symbols come up (usb and ITUNE symbols) I plug it up to the computer and the recovery program starts to load, but the Ipod flashes and cut off.  I left it alone and it started acting normal( music and video are fine) for a half hour.  Then all the same symptoms happen again.  What can I do? Please help I can't live without my IPOD

  • TS1368 I'm frustrated! iPod Touch 4g not connecting to anything needing internet, even though wi-fi is connected.

    My iPod Touch is making me very frustrated.  It can't connect to anything needing internet, except Draw Something.  App Store, Safari, even Weather won't load.  Facebook is touch-and-go.  If it loads it's VERY slow.  I contacted Apple support and that didn't help.  Best Buy (where I bought it a month ago) didn't help either.  The iPod Touch only connected for about the first week I owned it.  I've tried troubleshooting based on other answers posted here (changing the date, disconnecting and reconnecting wi-fi), but NOTHING works.  Please help!

    1. Try resetting Network Settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    2. If that does not help, test it on another network.
    3. If that does not work, try a restore.
    4. If that does not help, contact Apple again and see if they will replace it. You can always ask to be transferred to Customer Relations if you feel support was no help. They will take care of you.

  • Why is my iPod touch making a static noise?

    My iPod touch (2 gen) is making a static noise from the internal speaker. Anytime that I play my iPod from the speaker or headphones, it makes a static and crackling noise. However, it does work when I connect it to my iPod dock. I have tried the five R's and none of them work. What can I do to fix this?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
