Ok so my iPod headphone jack has been steretch out
My iPod touch 3rd gen the headphone port has been expanded so that it will not play music throw both sides of the headphones. What can I do to make the head phone port smaller to make it work right or do I need to buy a new iPod?
If your halfway comfortable working on something like this go here, http://www.ifixit.com/Products/iPod-5th-Gen/95/Page-2 . Find the model you have and if they have any you can buy one and on the iFixIt site there are guides for doing the work yourself.
If your not comfortable doing it you could send it somewhere such as

http://www.ipodmechanic.com/?gclid=CLirqOGYmY8CFQRuZQodyGNafg
and last but not least Apple repair
http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Take your pick. An example of the repair cost for the headphone jack would be 89 dollars at the first link I gave you. Shop around and you may find a better price.

IPod headphone-jack no longer making connection
The headphone-jack connection is worn-out. I've tried using 3 different headphones with the same male specifications and music was still audible from the iPod and not through any of the headphones. Thus, I am sure that the iPod headphone-jack is malfunctioning. It was purchased about a year ago, but it only has a one year warranty and I no longer have the receipt.
Any suggestions? It would be much appreciated.jenrss wrote:

The earphones must be pushed very hard into the iPod. So hard, that the white part of the plug must touch the iPod in order for the external speakers to turn off. You will hear a click.
If you do a forum search, you will find this same solution. If it does not work, you will need to take your iPod to an apple store or call the Apple iPod tech support if still under warranty or you have Apple Care. You may have a hardware problem. -
Hi! First time on here, just been having problems with my iPod headphone jack.
The trouble is, when I plug headphones in, it misses half the sound as if it's only playing one ear through both, and sometimes it misses all the words and it just sounds plain weird. If I put some headphones in half way it works, but the slightest movement and then it cuts off entirely, and other times I push the earphone right in, and twist it a bit but the same problem occurs.
First up... any ideas for how I could resolve this issue myself? Is it a good idea to try and have it repaired through some sort of third party type fixey places?
If not, which I presume will be the case, is it worth me paying for a single incident of support thing to speak to someone? Does that cover any repair or just the phone call?- The telephone support price is for the call only. It does not include repair/replacement.

- If it is an iPod problem and your iPod is withn warranty I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I need help setting up my daughters iPod. She has been using her iPod touch for 6 months using my ID. This caused a problem now that she is a bit more savvy and has learnt to message and FaceTime. I get her calls and she gets mine. I have set her up her own ID with iCloud but when I go to settings for FaceTime and messaging I can't erase my ID. So the problem is not really solved. She will have to access iTunes through me as she doesn't know my password and any games etc have to pass the mummy test. Can anyone help?
Thanks. I have my iPad on my lap and her iPod in my hand. We can FaceTime each other but it won't let either of us message each other. I know mine is activated as I use it frequently. I have activated hers as well. Maybe I will put it in the too hard basket for tonight, sleep on it and try again tomorrow.

Sounds like you need a new battery. Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

I was given an ipod and it has been disabled and I have tried to hook it up to itunes and it won't sync
Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
My iPod 5th gen has been doing this for awhile, though it progressively got better over time, it still happens occasionally like when I'm out running. My iPod is never able to connect strongly to any WiFi network. All the WiFi networks keep disappearing and then coming back, and this is infuriating because it wont let me sign in to iTunes or IMessage at all or update my iPod easily. My date and time keeps getting off track and every time i set it back to normal it just gets messed up again. Now it wont let me connect to iTunes and receive push notifications. I tried logging out o my Apple ID on my phone but now it wont let me sign back in. WHAT IS GOING ON HELP PLEASE!?!?!
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: 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. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My ipod headphone jack is only allowing sound in one headphone. i tried multiple headphones to make sure it wasn't the headphone but the jack itself. i have a ipod video 5th generation.
Had you brought the same pair of headphones to the Apple Store with you and they worked there? If you hadn't, the wire or plug on those headphones may have failed. Try a different pair if you can and see if those work.
Hope this helps -
Hello Community. My ipod nano 7g has been stolen - is there a possibility to find and block it if the ipod is connected via itunes?
Nope. You can report the theft to the police, and that's about it.

what is the best way to turn on my ipod after it has been in water? should i just turn it on or should i plug it in and let it turn on on its own?
Firstly, give your Pod a lot of time to dry out before trying to use it - at least a week, a fortnight might even be advisable. Water takes a surprisingly long time to evaporate from inside something.

My iPod 5th generation has been stolen and I don't have my box. Can I get the imei number without using itunes? In itunes, it's showing only the serial number. And they say that iDevices cannot be tracked with serial number.
