PLEASE RESPOND ASAP! IPOD TOUCH HELP!

My ipod touch screen is broken by the slightest in the corner, the metal is exposed to the outside. The screen had worked at usual for a good few months, but now the screen isn't working at all, when i touch it with cold fingers it's unresponsive, even with normal fingers. Does anyone have a diagnoses or a way i can fix this?
If i give apple back this ipod touch, will they give me a new one for a cheaper price? please reply asap!!

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.

  • IPod nano problems! PLEASE RESPOND ASAP!!

    HELP!
    A couple days ago I had to re-format the computer due to a virus. I didn't save any of the songs that were on iTunes. That night I listened to some songs on my iPod. The next day I plugged it in my computer for it to charge. When it was done charging, I went to listen to some songs but there were NO SONGS ON IT!! I have no clue what happened... has this happened to anyone? Does anyone know how to fix it? Please respond ASAP!
    Thanks,
    Molly =)

    Hi Molly,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Copying songs from your iPod to your computer
    "The iTunes library on your computer holds all the songs you've encoded from your CD collection or purchased from the iTunes Music Store. With default settings, iTunes automatically copies the songs in your library to your iPod. When you use your iPod as a hard disk, you can't see the songs iTunes copies to your iPod in the Finder or My Computer. This is normal. Using the Finder or My Computer, you can't copy these song files from your iPod back to iTunes or to any other computer. The synchronization between your iPod and your computer is always one way: from iTunes to iPod.
    If you've erased the music library on your computer, there's no way to use the Finder or My Computer to copy the songs from your iPod to reconstitute the library on your computer. One solution is to encode the songs from your CD collection again, then sync your new library with iPod. If you purchased songs from the iTunes Music Store and didn't back them up, there's no way to download them again. You'll have to buy new copies of the songs."
    Taken from Using your iPod as a hard disk
    So even if there were any tracks on your iPod, Apple has set it so you shouldn't be able to get them back.
    You need to reload iTunes with music, and then get into the habit of backing them up as well. Once you've done that you can start loading onto the nano.
    To help with backing up your music this link will explain what the files are:
    What are the iTunes library files?
    If you have problems with your nano here is a useful link:

  • Please recommend an ipod touch case

    could someone please recommend an ipod touch (64gb) protective case, so that I can have my ipod on my chest using a neck strap! and where I can obtain it from in the UK. Thanks

    Let me clarify, did you mean iPod Touch 4?
    I'll break it down for you:
    iPod Touch 4th is smaller and slimmer than iPhone 4s so iPod cases will not fit on the 4s.
    Maybe you meant iPhone 4 and 4s cases? Most of the cases are compatible except for some alignment issues on the volume buttons and mute switch. Other than that, external dimensions are the same.
    In face, I am still using all my iPhone 4 cases on my 4s.

  • I dont have safari on my 3rd gen ipod touch help me and i would like to update my ipod to ios 7 if possible please help me..

    i need safari on my ipod i had it now it is gone and it is really annoying i cannot download some apps all because of an ios thing i would appreciate it if i could get ios 7 so someone please help me

    You may have to consider, if possible, a visit to an Apple Store with Genius
    bar. Usually it's best to try & set an appointment. If you know an actual Store
    you may call and ask if they can help you set a time to discuss this issue so
    as to save you some trouble with using the online Genius bar scheduling.

    The iPod Touch you have may not accept the latest iOS8.x system, so if you
    have older marginal Apps, they would not work and may not have equal or
    similar replacements under the latest iOS version. iOS7 may not be available
    and if you should upgrade to iOS8, you probably won't be able to revert back.
    After looking around Support online, I do not see a method of restoring Safari
    but your device may have one built-in to it; perhaps part of a reset process.
    I am not certain... There are some items you may have to attach the Touch to
    a computer and use it to see about updates or replacement software.
    http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
    To ask a knowledgeable product specialist, and have the iPod Touch model
    and serial number handy, may be the best way to go. Expect that with any
    upgrade to a newer iOS system software, old apps won't work and new ones
    that could be available, may not look, feel or act in the same way as old ones.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Refurbished iPod Touch Help Please?

    Hello,
    I'm considering purchasing two of the iPod Touch for my wife and I for Christmas. Considering that the cheapest one is $229, I thought about the refurbished ones that are selling a lot cheaper and I'm interested in maybe getting those.
    I found the refurbished iPod Touch here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/FA623LL/B?mco=MTgwNjk1Mw&fnode=home%2Fspeciald eals%2Fipod%2Frhs
    My question to anyone who knows about this is the following:
    1) Are these iPods different from the ones out now? Like, do these iPod Touch's still have the built-in speaker and other standard features? Or is this a previous generation iPod Touch? I'm not even aware if there's been other generation iPod Touch's since iPod Touch is still pretty new.
    2) Has anyone had experience with buying refurbished items from Apple before? Were you satisfied?
    I'm really more interested in figuring out if these refurbs are the same iPod Touch generation out now. I know they've been bought before and fixed up for whatever reason, but for my budget, this would really satisfy my needs. If anyone could help, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

    I purchased a refurb original iPod touch from Apple. No problems, but it was slightly scratched on the back when it arrived.
    The refurb ones appear to be the original ones (look at the size of the unit). They lack the external speaker and volume buttons, and I think they have a slightly different body design. But they can make some noise (i.e., alarms). The screen seems to be the same, and wifi speed is the same.
    Hope this helps.

  • Milk spillage on ipod touch -help please?

    i didnt realise that the lid on my mars drink was not tight
    and it ended up getting into my ipod as well,
    i couldnt turn it off cuz the screen wasnt responding,
    and i wanna know if i can get it fixed at the apple store
    if so how much?
    its in a cup of rice at the moment,,
    hoping its gonna work...

    Now here's what determines whether or not you can either get a new one without questions OR have to pay. Get a flashlight, look into the HEADPHONE jack. Check to see if it is pink or any color other than white.
    If it's pink, that means its "water" damaged or in this case, milk damaged. That means you'd be out of warranty and would have to pay about 180 pounds for the repairs.
    NOW, if you looked in there and there's NO sign of pink, then congratulations! You can just go to the Apple store, tell them that the screen just stopped working or the iPod stopped working in general and they'll morethanlikely get you either a refurbished iPod touch OR a new one! So make sure to look in there VERY well to make sure you don't go to the Apple store expecting a replacement when they look in there and see its pink xD
    Also, this is all assuming you're still under warranty. If not...then you'd have to pay for the repairs which is quite a bit. Look into it a bit more. For now, just leave in the rice (SEALED container) to get out that moisture, maybe it'll work. Not sure, but it works better with water, dunno bout milk. Good luck!

  • I need iPod touch help! ASAP!

    My iPod touch keeps freezing over and over even after I hold down both buttons!!!!! I hold down both buttons then it works for awhile....then it goes right back to the white screen!! I've already restored it 4 times!!! I've only have had it for a couple years and no major damage has ever been done.  Any other help!!!

    Connect in recovery mode, explained here iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore , and set it up "as new device, shown here How to set up your iPhone or iPod touch as a new device
    After that don't use the latest backup to restore from, it might contain corrupt files causing your problem.

    Also, the page i pasted above is NOT in the correct iTunes style/format, and there is no Search Bar above it, etc. It is just a blank page with exactly what I pasted.
    Please help me, I would be forever grateful.

    My iphone works!!! But it wasn't from rebooting (although rebooting gave me the idea to try Plan B, so thx very much for inspiration). I rebooted several times and nothing happened. Then, I decided to download the FindMyiPhone app (in case that had something to do with it). I downloaded the app from the app store on my iphone--NOT through itunes on my computer. (Tried that and failed).
    After I downloaded the app, I had to go into iphone Settings "Mail, Contacts.." and key in my Mobile Me info. (Also, make sure Push notifications is ON; this is also in Settings) Next, I enabled bluetooth and then tried to connect to our wifi home network. As soon as iphone "discovered" the home network, I opened itunes, and the first screen asked me how I wanted to set up my phone.Yippie!
    I don't know if the FindMyiPhone app had anything to do with it or if the iphone just wanted me to key in all of the MobileMe/itunes account stuff, so you'll have to figure out that one for yourself. I would be willing to bet, though, that this process will work with ipods as well as iphones.
    Now, if I can just get rid of this splitting headache...
