My Ipod volume won't turn down. What can I do to get it to turn down?

My IPod Nano (generation 5) will no longer allow me to adjust my volume. I can't get it to turn down. What can I do?

Setting the Maximum Volume Limit
You can set a limit for the maximum volume on iPod nano and assign a combination to prevent the setting from being changed.
To set the maximum volume limit for iPod nano:
1 Choose Settings > Playback > Volume Limit. The volume control shows the current volume.
2 Use the Click Wheel to select the maximum volume limit.
3 Press the Center button to set the maximum volume limit.
4 If you don’t want to require a combination to change the maximum volume, choose Done.
See Page 45 of the User Guide,,, Volume Limit...

My ipod touch won't switch on, what can i do?

i bought an ipod touch 3 days ago in portugal, i charged it today for the first time for about 8 hours and then i took it out to listen to it and it doesn't switch on.. i have tried doing everything such as restarting, and it still doesn't work. what can i do ?

Hi
Firstly was the ipod sealed in the wrapper untouched ?
If the answer is yes, then what you need to do is hunt for the customer support number on the apple store web site.
Have patience because it took me a while to find a number to call.
Or you can ring the first number you find and ask to be transfered.
Explain to them the problem,
If the ipod is less then 14 days old since you bought it from a store, then you are entitled to have it replaced, they will sort a courier to pick it up.
But chances are if you didnt buy it from a registered stockist, it wont happen
If not dont worry, you are covered by warranty, they will send a courier to pick up your ipod and have it fixed,
Chances are they cant fix it so they will send you a brand new one.
I had the same problem, it seems that the first models they kicked out had a few hardwear faults.
Hope this helps Red

Upon downloading a file I can open it only after the initial download. If I try to open the file later it won't open. What can I do to get the downloaded files to open?

The download can be any type of file video, word, etc. After the initial download I can view it, but if I try to open the file later I can't.

[[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] has steps that you can try. It sounds like you may have something that is hanging your browser on exit (probably an extension or a locked profile) and the steps on that page should help clear it up.

My ipod 5 won't turn on at all no matter what i try

my ipod 5 won't turn on at all no matter what i try.
even though I try to charge it it wont charge and it wont turn on.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

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

try pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until either the Apple logo or battery symbol appears.. this worked for me when my ipod touch didnt turn on or show the apple symbol.. hope this helps

7th gen iPod nano won't turn on after disconnect.

7th gen iPod nano won't turn on after disconnect. I loaded some new music, synced and ejected correctly. screen went black on unplug. Waited, did the button trick, didn't work. plugged it back in & it is recognized immediately. restored, resynced & ejected again. same thing-black screen w/ no response. Charged it overnight. ejected, screen then went to language setting. OK for English, eject & back to black on unplug. Switched ports for cable, tried eject thru PC...all resulting in dead nano after unplug. I really don't want to charge into the store & take it out on the poor kid who will catch the brunt of my frustration. anyone have a suggestion?

Hello Marie,
I would be concerned too if my iPod nano was not powering on. I found an article for the 6th generation iPod nano that has steps you can take for an issue like this (the only difference for the 7th generation iPod nano is the steps you will take for the reset. I included the steps to reset a 7th generation iPod nano below):
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting the device while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button for at least eight seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
You can find the full article here:
iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3474
All the steps apply to the 7th generation except the steps for the reset. To reset a 7th generation iPod nano, use these steps:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for six seconds, or until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo appears after a few seconds, and then the Home screen. You may need to repeat this step.
I got these steps from this tutorial, which may also help with your iPod not appearing in iTunes:

My ipod touch won't turn on anymore!!!

MY IPOD TOUCH WON'T TURN ON ANYMORE!!
I don't know what happened. but I am beginning to think apple is ripping me and everyone off.
I don't know why I paid about 200-300 dollars for this iPod to be frozen or not turn on anymore!
When I downloaded Currency converter pro, it just froze my ipod.
Either it's that problem, or something is wrong.
I never dropped it in water or anything bad.
PLEASE HELP.

Have you've tried holding down the power button for several seconds?
If so and you're still getting nothing you may have to do a hard restore.
here's how to do it on Mac OS:
1. Connect you're iPod to the computer with the sync cable, and open iTunes.
2. Hold down the power and home buttons for 10seconds, then release the power button (continue holding the home button for about another 6-8 seconds). iTunes should display a message stating that the iPod is in restore mode and needs to be restored before it can be used (or something to that effect).
3.Hitting the restore button will likely give an error message. You'll need to hold down option and click the restore button, which will bring up a file browser. Navigate to *<your user name>/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates/* and choose iPod2,12.2.1_5H11aRestore.ipsw (or similar ipsw file depending on your ipod, or iphone, generally choose the newest one) and click open.
4. Wait for it to restore, when that's finished you should be able to further restore it using the backup that was generated when you last synced it.
I have never done this on windoze, but I imagine it's quite similar, just not sure where you'd find the ipsw file.

Dont be worried- If you ipod is under warranty, and you haven't caused it any harm yourself(ie.if its a problem from Apple's side), then you can get your ipod replaced

Hi, my 4th generation iPod touch won't turn on. I lost it for about a year, and I plugged it in and it wouldn't turn on. Please help!
~Thanks

Make sure it's fully charged. Hold the Sleep/Wake + Home buttons down (at least 15-seconds) until Apple logo lights up. If that does not work, you may need a new battery.

My iPod Touch won't turn on, why?

My iPod touch won't turn on. It all of a sudden turned off and will not come back on no matter what I do. I've tried holding the lock and home button in at the same time, I've tried charging it all day and I've tired pluging it into my MacBook and reseting it but none of that works. Please help, thank you.

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
