Why does my ipod touch 4th gen battery life drain so quick

I've had my iPod touch for a few years now, but recently The battery life drains very fast, even if I go on one app it goes down half way after charging it full, I don't know why? My iPod will last me 30-1hour, is there a way of fixing this? :-)

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.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem that indicates a hardware problem. Likely a bad battery.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new batter for $79. They do not fix yours.

My iPod Touch 4g 8 gig keeps restarting randomly while I'm playing.. It makes some buzz noise and restarts, it's really annoying. What do I do?

I've just purchased this iPod Touch. I would turn on my ipod touch 4g, 8gig. Then I would play my music.. While playing it, it would continuously restart, and make some buzz noize. Charging it is a hassle too. Even right now for some reason it keeps charging, and un charging, charging, and un charging, repeatedly
What should I do? I can turn my music on right now, set it to autoplay, and it will continue to throw itself into the restart screen, and restart. Please help, thank you.

I did a test on mine.

At the end of 10 days I got the 20% low battery warning.
I would try a RESET on yours.
Hold down the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
It will reset and restart itself in a few minutes.
See if that helps.

Ipod touch has bad battery and suddenly turns off

Ipod touch has bad battery and suddenly turns off but only works when its on a dock with speaker...
any advice on what to do, because i am thining of getting the battery replace

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How can I tell if my iPod touch needs its battery replaced or if there is something wrong with the power connector?

About 3 weeks ago, I got pushed into a pool, fully clothed, with my iPod touch in my back pocket. Miraculously, I was able to salvage it (or so I thought) by putting it for a couple of days in a dessicator jar and then recharging it. It seemed all right until a few days ago, when it began having more difficulty being recognized as connected when I hooked it up to my MacBook Pro, my wall charger or my USB port in my car. Last night it was working and I was able to play it in my car and to successfully sync it. I surfed on it for awhile then forgot to plug it in before I went to bed. The battery indicator was in the red when I woke up, so I connected it to my wall charger. When I came back, it was right where it was - no charging, and moving it to a new outlet and changing cables did not help. So, I tried hooking back up to my laptop, same thing. I tried my husband's wall charger; still no connection. I then tried hooking it up to the USB port in my car, but it sees no connection. If it weren't for the fact that it got dunked, I'd assume that the battery needs replaced, but because of that, I fear it might be something more complicated. Does anyone know if there is a way I can test this? I'd hate to go get the battery replaced, only to discover that it still doesn't work.
Thanks!

Apple does not replace your battery. Instead it replaces your old iPod with a refurbished one (with a new battery). When they see your iPod, the can tell that it had been in the water and will probably offer you an out-of-warranty repair ($99-$199). If you want to take a chance on just replacing the battery, Google for a third party repair shop, but in that case, the risk is all yours.

Hi, my daughter wrote wrong paswords in my ipod touch and it is blocked. It says it needs to be connected to itunes, but once its there it says the ipod is blocked with a passcode..the ipod is just blocked. what can I do?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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.

What is wrong with the ipod touch 4th gen battery?

I have an 8gb 4th gen ipod touch that I purchased in December 2011. I charged it completely last night after doing a full reset, and by morning the battery was only at half charge. I've turned off all unnecessary services, no apps were running, no music/video play, just in sleep mode. Still the battery drained down at least 50%.
Is anyone else experiencing these problems? Have you found a way to extend the battery charge?

Try this:
iPod: How to extend battery life
You did not say if the iPod was in airplane mode. That helps a lot. With iOD 5, the battery does drain faster than before.

My sons iPod touch 5 keeps flashing with the apple logo, how do I sort it?

My sons iPod touch 5 keeps flashing the apple logo, he was playing on it and then that happened?

Has the unit EVER been jailbroke? Has it EVER been dropped? Did it EVER get excessively wet? Did you EVER load a pirated developer's version of the IOS?
If "No" to all the above, first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen 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 and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

TS1363 My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows. Is this repairable?

My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows. I have tried a variety of options, even resetting, but still no luck.

What does the iPod's screen say or do, when you connect it to USB port on the computer?
The article referenced is for "regular" iPods. An iPod touch is an iOS computer, so this article would be more appropriate for troubleshooting.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
Be sure to rule out a faulty USB cable as the cause. Try another cable, or try the cable you have with another device that has a dock connector.
Also, you should do this test to rule out a problem with the USB port (such as lack of power or USB device conflict). Shut down (power off) the computer and disconnect all USB devices, including any hub, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if normally used). If the computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power).
Then, start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect iPod to a direct USB port on the computer. If it still does not connect, connect something else to the same USB port to confirm it is working. Preferably, use something similar, such as a USB flash drive or external drive.

How can i get into my sons ipod touch since he forget his passcode?

How can i get ito my sons ipod touch since he forgot his passcode??? need help

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

My Sons Ipod touch keeps coming up showing Low Memory ??? Is there a Simple Fix and How to Delete all the Pages it has Created in Doing so ??? Any Help would be more than Appreciated to Repair this Problem and getting it working back to 100% ... Thank You

My Sons iPod Touch Recently Reads Low Battery all the Time now Since downloading and Playing COD ... Is there a Simple Fix for this ???

Not Really a Electronics Wizz or up to date on My iPod Electronics and Repair ... Just trying to get his iPod back working to 100% again ... Any Help or Direction would be Greatly Appreciated ,,, Thank You,,, Brian : )

If the memory is low, double click the home button to bring up the multitask bar, tap on one of the apps shown until they start to shake, then hit the little red minus to close them. After all apps are closed that way, press the home button again and see if it works now.
Maybe you'll reset the device as well by pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing this, but it can clear some glitches as well.
