New iPod behaving differently with iPhone headphones

I just had an iPod Touch go bad and had it replaced at an Apple store. I aslo have some "iPohone" headphones that have the answer button. On my first iPod the answer button would work as a pause and play button, but on my newer one it's not doing that....I REALLY liked having this feature. Does anyone know what the difference might be?

I have the same problem with my iPod Touch using Apple headphone. The remote worked well for months, then stop working until now - rendering them pretty useless, mic still work thought...
I tried everything, even restoring the iPod. Nothing worked, this is a iPod OS software glitch that Apple doesn't seem willing to fix anytime soon. As a result, I'm barely using my Touch since it's a pain in the a*s having to take it out of the pocket, unlock, etc., everytime I want to pause or skip track. Stupid move here Apple, FIX THIS ASAP APPLE...

Brand new Ipod touch G4 with sound only in one earbud

I have a brand new Ipod touch G4 with sound only in one earbud. I have tried different types of headphones, but get the same result. If I jiggle the connector pin, I can get sound on both earbuds, but only on one side when the connector pin is push all the way in.
I have an older Ipod g4 without this problem
any suggestions?

Try on your ipod going to Settings-General-Accessibility. Scroll down into Hearing and see that Mono Audio is off. Maybe that's the problem.

Another New IPod Touch Owner with Wi-fi Problems

Another New IPod Touch Owner with Wi-fi Problems.
I have been working at this for about 4 hours now with no success and I am getting pretty frustrated, so if it show up in my typing please ignore it. I just don't understand why these multi-million dollar companies can't write a manual or put up a web site that can actually help someone with a problem.
Ok, venting aside.
I am running a gateway computer.
Operating System = XP
Router = Linksys WRT54G
I have two other computers that are working fine with the existing wireless net work and have been for some time.
I'm pretty good with my computer but haven't touched my router since initial set-up and all that was done was a basic set up.
My I-pod is searching for a network and I'm three feet away from it but it doesn't find it.
I printed out my wireless setting. I presume SSID name equals the name box on the ipod-touch
Security = WEP
What seems to be kicking my A$$ is the password. The route setting have never been changed so I would pesume the password should be the default "admin" which I put in (JOIN) and get the "Could not find network" screen
So, I have perused this message board trying to discover and answer to mine, and and apparently many others question with no definitive results.
So I guess what I and everybody else needs is a step by step how to guide on how to discover the info needed and enter in what we need to make this work.
Thanks in advance to anybody that can actually help with this issue. A step by step do this would be nice.

Thank you Terpfen for replying, and please excuse my ill temper earlier. I've calmed down some now.
Step: 1 followed step one previously, Main screen, settings, Wi-Fi. Also set power down to 5 min to give I-Pod plenty of time to find network.
Wi-Fi Network Screen.
Wi-Fi ON
Choose a Network (searching indicator) symbol spinning.
Other ...
Ask to Join Networks ON
At this point the I-pod does not find any networks available. The indicator just spins but never returns any results. I am 3 feet for my WRT54G router.
Hence the easy connect isn't connecting.
The next step. is to manually set-up the connection.
Main screen, setting, Wi-Fi, Other.
press "Other" which brings up two fields
Name __________
Security ___________
First Question? Which Name are they looking for. when I went to my router 192.168.1.1 It has the name linksys. However, when I go to my Wireless Network setting it has the name * ???? * which is different than Linksys router.
Now, since one of the goals here is file sharing I presume I should be using the Wireless Network settings name. (which I have tried.)
Next is security, Wireless Network setting indicate setting for WEP Once this is selected you then back-up to the "Enter Network Setting Screen" and you now have a password line added.
Now I have never set a password for the router so the password for the router is the default Password "admin" And I don't recall ever setting a password for my network setting. But, I only use about three different passwords and a cycled through them still with no success.
So, I need some expert advise on how and where to find the info to input into the required field to work or what I need to reset in my router to make this work.
Thanks again for anyone who has constructive input to resolve my and probably many other peoples issues with this problem.

Has anyone tried syncing the new iPod Touch 4 with OS 10.4.11?

I know the "official" Apple spec's state the new iPod Touch 4 are
for it to sync with OS 10.5.8 and use iTunes 10 .... but has anyone been
successful in using the new iPod Touch 4 with OS 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1?

Does iTunes see the iPod? If not
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
or
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
You need iTunes 10.7 or later on the computer
The iPod touch uses different drivers than the Nano

Will any iPod charger work with iPhone

Does any (Apple) iPod charger work with iPhone? I would like to charge the phone in different places without carrying the wall charger with me all the time. I got my regular iPod charger and was hoping that I can use it. I noticed that the wall charger that comes with the phone has a lower amp rating than the iPod charger I have. I would think this shouldn't make a difference unless everything else (e.g., the connector wiring) is the same.
Does anyone know for sure?
Thanks

I believe so. Check this link http://www.apple.com/iphone/questionsandanswers.html scroll to the section Accessories for iPhone and read the first one.
I'd imagine if there was a problem they would have mentioned it. Also, if it makes you feel any better, I've been using iPod charger to charge my phone and so far it's been working fine.

IPOD stolen, can I sync new ipod or itouch with library

My Ipod was recently stolen. Can I sync a new ipod or itouch with the itunes library I backed up for my original ipod?
Thanks

Hey there,
Yes you can. Just go ahead and hook it up to your new computer and go through the registration process and sync away if the backed up music is already imported into your new library. Hope this helps.

Hi, new iPod shuffle comes with Apple older earphones or new earpods ?

Hi, new iPod shuffle comes with Apple older earphones or new earpods ?

Older design earbuds, not the EarPods. However, the remote control buttons on the EarPods cord are compatible with the currernt 4th gen iPod shuffle, although its microphone does nothing for a shuffle.

Why is my new ipod Touch 5 with iOS 7.1 clock is slow by almost 3 minutes?

Why is my new ipod Touch 5 with iOS 7.1 clock is slow by almost 3 minutes?

Radiation, global warming maybe... Really don't know, the time should update when you connect to the internet. You could also try resetting and see if it corrects. Are you sure the clock your comparing with is set to the correct time? Good luck, Cheers.

Does anyone know if the new ipod nano come with a camera

Does anyone know if the new ipod nano comes with a camera?

The newest nano is the 7th generation. It does not have a camera. The 8th generation is the next one, for Apple to release whenever they want. We do not know when or what it will have.

[Problem] Noise/Rustle with iPhone headphones

Hi guys,
first of all i must apologise for my english, it is not my native language, but hopefuly you will understand what i'm saying. Second of all, this may not be a very big deal for some of you, but it is for me and i'm very sure for others too.
The actual problem is a noise/rustle that i hear whenever i plug in my headphones into the iphone. It is like when you listen to the ocean through a sea shell . It really bothers me and i don't think this is an acceptable flaw. The courious thing is that this doesn't happen if i use the "line out" connector from behind the dock (maybe the mic connector and the amplifier are by-passed). Does enyone has the same problem or know the answer to this one? If you don't know how to test this, please follow these instructions:
1. open iPod aplication on your iPhone and start playing any song;
2. pause the song;
3. move the volume knoob at minimum
(At this point) Did you noticed a small pinch? I'm guessing that is the amplifier switch off (so maybe is it ok?)
4. move the volume knoob to the right (the pinch noise kicks again but with that also comes the noise i described upper in this post - sea shell noise)
i've checked this with some of my friends and only one of them reported a similar result. what could be the problem?
i was also thinking this is because of low impedance and high sensitivity of the headphones.
Thanks in advance,
aveul

Do you get the same noise when you connect a different set of earphones to the iPhone?

Why won't my BRAND NEW iPod Nano 7th Generation recognize headphones?

My BRAND NEW iPod Nano 7th Generation (purchased from and Apple Store less than a week ago) will not recognize any headphones. Consequently, I can hear NO sounds. It worked just fine right after I set it up. I turned it off, disconnected headphones that came with the Nano. Several hours later I turned it on again, plugged in the headphones, and then I could hear NOTHING. When I tried the radio, I got the message there was no signal because it said the headphones were not plugged in, which they were. I have tried two other sets of headphones. None work, but they all work in another iPod, so I know it is not the headphones. I restored the software and started over, but this didn't help either. I have pushed the headphone jack in as far as possible. This is very frustating because this Nano was a birthday gift for my husband. I will be grateful for any help. Thanks a lot.

Thanks SO much for the GREAT advice! I did just what you said, and I am back in business. The sound is fine, and the radio works. I cleaned out the jack with a tooth pick, blew some air in, and pushed the jack in a bit harder.I guess I was too tentative about pushing the jack all the way in. You were right that it is a tight fit. Thanks again, deggie. My husband thanks you also! His birthday gift now works! Yay!

New iPod Hi-Fi with issue

Hi,
I purchased a new Hi-Fi yesterday and haven't had any luck. It seems extremely easy to use but...
I plugged the hi-Fi into ac power and the status light functions accordingly. The remote as well as the volume buttons also cause the status light to display properly. However, when I take my Video iPod (with the latest sw) and dock it on top, it's never recognized as being connected. I'm not getting any sound whatsoever out of the Hi-Fi. The volume is up of course..The iPod also isn't being controlled by the remote while docked. Even if I select a song from the iPod itself, there's no audio either.
The iPod is fine and works with headphones or plugged into other devices that use the dock connector (MonsterMonster® iCarPlay™ Wireless - FM Transmitter for iPods with Dock Connection), everything is fine. I reset the iPod as well with no effect and tried as well with a nano we have (lastest sw as well) with no results.
I have also unplugged the Hi-Fi to reset it as well with no results.
Maybe it's dead...

Hi,
If your Nano does not work on your iPod HiFi as well, clearly that something wrong on the dock connection of the iPod HiFi, return it to the shop

IPod Connector Cord with iPhone 3G

Hi, I have an Video iPod 5G and want to know if I can use the USB to iPod dock connector cord that came with it with the iPhone 3G
Thanks

Yes, it should work. I also am using my iPod 5G cable with my new iPhone and it syncs and charges just fine with both my computers (iMac and MBP). I keep the cable that came with the iPhone plugged into the AC adapter to charge it elsewhere.

New Ipod was accidentally locked with an unknown passcode - have tried restore process in I Tunes but still cannot unlock passcode - any suggestions?

You'll need to put it in dfu recovery mode, then do a restore. That will set it back to it's "out of the box" condition, without a password, then you can sync with iTunes...Here is an article that describes the process...
