The back case of the ipod

ok so i was given a used ipod nano and i was cleeaning it off and it looks liike the back cover is semi coming off. Is there a way to take it off and re put it on??? If so please let me kno

Most likely, the Clips that hold the back case to the Ipod Broke in some places. TO take it off u can just use a spudger or if ur brave enough a flathead screwdriver.

Can the back case of the iPad be Electro-Etched?

We would like to etch company info on the back of all our iPads. I'm curious if anyone knows whether Electro-Etch could damage the electronics of the device? Thanks,
Jarred

Fact: electro-etching involves passing a current, most likely of several amps, through the item to be etched.
Fact: passing an electrical current through solid-state electronics can and probably will damage the circuitry.
Fact: the iPad's case houses antennas and other components that directly connect to the circuitry and hence does not provide any sort of circuit isolation from a current passed through the case.
I don't know what additional "facts" you're looking for. I doubt very much that you'll find anyone who's tried this already, though I can't say it's not possible. That Apple uses a laser process rather than electro-etching should be something of an indicator.
If you want to take the risk, go ahead and see what happens. Don't expect Apple to honor the warranty if the iPad is indeed damaged.
Regards.

Is apple planing on making the back part of the ipod touch?

Is apple planing on making the back part of the ipod touch look, feel, and be like the ipad and or mac? I have heard millions of complaints that the ipod touch's back, scratches really easily, (I am also one of them). I am willing to buy the fifth ipod touch if the back were aluminum or some other kind of material.

Just put it in a case. Personally, I find the touch very slippery and easy to drop. I put a silicone case on mine that fits like a glove, has a nice grip, looks great and doesn't add any noticeable weight.

How can I remove the back cover for my ipod?

I need to remove the cover because my ipod seems to be suffering from a hardrive problem. It used to just cycle through all the songs in a playlist or randomly play 5 seconds and skip to the next song, but now it just makes a whirring noise when I try to turn it on and cannot get past the apple logo.
Sometimes I get the little unhappy ipod logo and the support website but thats it.
Iv tried going into diagnostic mode and attempting to run a few tests. It failed a USB test in this mode so i think that may be one of the problems with it.
Does anyone know of a fool proof way of removing the case so I can dis/reconnect the harddrive?

Before you remove the back cover of your iPod - which will loss the warranty
Read the following
he Sad iPods icon or folder with an exclamation mark are the toughest problems to deal with, and must do a Restore in order to fix it. However, when your iPod is showing this icon, it is probably too late for your computer to recognize the iPod.
1. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
2. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
Still can't see your iPod?
Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or in the Desktop/Finder when you connect it to your PC/Mac. The most likely causes are listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
3. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
4. Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
5. Try another known-good FireWire or USB port on your computer .
6. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
7. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. We've found that in many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
8. Try to do an Erase (Disk Utility) on a Mac computer or a format with a PC (Disk Management tool) but ensure you choose the right Drive (your iPod not your Hard Disk of your computer). You may need to plug and unplug your iPod with the computer for several attempts, and switching around Format and Restore, and hope out of sudden, it will get recognized.
9. Diagnostic mode solution – which I copied from a thread of a post from thinktwice
“Then I cam across this special Diganostics Mode that you can get to by resetting and then while the Apple is showing pressing the Select and backwards keys simultaneously. It bring up and weird Diagnostic utility witha a abunch of tests. Here is what I did
- I tried the 5in1 test and got and error on Firewire.
- I did the HDD R/W and surprisingly it passed.
- I went on to the HDD scan. This supposedly tkaes acouple of minute so I waited. I think 4-5 dots appeared then nothing. The iPod started to get hot. THe disk was spinning away. After a while the battery got very low. THis test chews up the battery. So I escaped out by resetting and went to connect it to a power source.
My USB was dangling out of my computer and I was too lazy to get the Firewire AC adapter thing going so I connected expecting the whole lockup thing with iTunes. Surprise. IT was recognized immediately and has been working like a champ. So go figure.
Details on Diag mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/index.shtml
10.Let me ask you a question, if an iPod with no iPod software with it. When your connect it with a computer, what would happen?
Yeah, the computer will treat it as a fresh external hard disk, which will get force mounted, the computer will ask you to format the iPod. It does not really matter the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted iPod software on the iPod, after that the computer will recognize it.
Once it has been completed, eject your iPod, open the iPod updater and interestingly, you will able to do the Restore this time.
Base on the above, that's why I suggest Windows users who experience trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac machine or vice versa. PC computer will not recognize a Mac formatted iPod, but it will get mounted in an attempt to format your iPod.
But, if none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired. You can arrange for service at the iPod Service Website.
I have just read an interesting solution about the Sad iPod, it does make sense but the warranty will be waived once you open the iPod, I would not do it myself as I am not good on doing this

If i want to replace the back case for an iphone 3g and i provide the back case, will Apple do the actual replacement for me?

The black back case on my iphone 3g is cracked. i would like to replace the back case with a new white one. I saw the video on how to do the replacement on youtube and found it complicated. if i take the new back case and the phone to Apple, will the replace the broken back case for me?

Regarding the iPhone 3G, the only repair that Apple Genius does on that device is the Front Screen Replacement. So they could help you get the front assembly back on when you are done with the repair. To give you a better idea, the Genius do not even replace the battery on the iPhone 3G. Apple will not help you with this repair.

The back plate of my ipod bent-how do i fix???CHEAP

i got hit by a car and the mirror from the car bent the back plate of the itouch...it works with no problems and the screen didn't break,only the back was danged.so how can i fix it for cheap or free????

Yes, third-party places can replace the back. Just Google for iPod repair. It is not covered by the Apple warranty. I myself would just live with it.

Changed the back case but now no sound or signal

I have just changed the back case on my iphone 3g i have followed guides on how to do this and then done the reverse to put it back together but now when i turn the phone on i get no signal and no sounds. If you plug headphones in you can hear music etc. Anyone know what i can do?

This is a user forum not a technical one, so unfortunately there probably won't be anybody here who has dissassembled an iPhone.
One could only guess that if it is a loose connection, that the no signal could be caused by an antenna not being connected properly, and the speaker issue being related to the cable for the speaker. Due to all the small parts though there could easily have been some damaged caused during reassembly or disassembly.

Hi Midnightbrat,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The troubleshooting steps for the camera on the iPad are similar to the iPhone: I've highlighted the pertinent steps below:
Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Camera
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tapping Settings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash; try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
Try turning the iPad off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try switching between the front and the back cameras to verify if the issue persists on both.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!
