The battery in my iPod touch runs out very fast, why?

My ipod's battery does not last very long. If I leave it unpluged for a half day it's already dead even though nothing seems to be running. It wasn't like this when I bought it in January this year and why is this happening? Is there anything I can check before I bring it back to the store? Thank you very much for your help!

  • Am I able to reset the battery of an iPod Touch 5G myself?

    Am I able to reset the battery of an iPod Touch 5G myself? Because my battery is doing strange. When I put it in a computer it says 'charging off'. When I put it in a charger it is normally charging but when I take it out, it says 20% battery life remaining. I put it in the charger the whole night but I don't know what's wrong. But after it says 20% it turns off (of course) but when I turn it on, the battery is 100%! I didn't even put it in a charger! And then the same story begins. over and over.

    Hey Ron61, Don't know about resetting the battery, but you can do a reset of the iPod. Start with a soft reset. Press and hold the power and home buttons together, until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds+/-) then release both buttons. If no joy, then go into Settings>General>Reset then tap Reset All Settings. If that does my work try allowing your iPod to drain down until it turns off, then charge at least 4 hours. Also try a different cable, the lighting cables have a history of failing / shorting out. And inspect your charging port on the iPod for foreign debris or damage. If still not joy, make a full set of backups of everything on this iPod to your computer then try to Restore for Backup or last resort Restore to New. If none of the above work, contact your Apple store or Apple Genius Bar and have your iPod evaluated for possible hardware issue. Bring you cable alone also. Good luck. Cheers.

    Thanks for answer

    If you go to Apple, they will not replace your battery, but exchange your iPod for a refurbished iPod of the same model with a new battery.  Therefore you will lose everything that is not backed up.  If you change it yourself or have a third party change it, you will most likely not lose anything (but still best to make a backup as lllaass suggested).

  • I am aware that apple does not replace the battery for my ipod touch 4th generation, but I wanted to know if i purchase a replacement battery, can they recommend someone to replace the battery for me?

    I have a ipod touch 4th generation, 32gb, purchased at least 3 years ago.  It will not hold a charge, so I would like to purchase a replacement battery.  Can the apple store recommend someone to install the battery for me once I purchase it from them?

    Apple does not repl;ace the battery in your iPod. They exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery.
    A third-party place like the following will replace your battery for less. Google for more.

    Until it dies.
    That would depend entirely on what you do with it and how much you use it.

  • I let my ipod touch run out of battery, i plugged it in, and i won't recognize my password. Help!

    OK-
    I'm 13 years old and got an ipod touch for my last birthday.
    And once in a while i get the Touch taken away.
    This time, it got taken away for 3 days, it was out of battery,
    so i plugged it in.
    When it finally came to, i typed in my password 'rise'
    AND IT SAID IT WAS WRONG!!!!!
    Please help me...

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • Why does the battery on my ipod touch drain so fast?

    I barely have an hour of battery life using my ipod touch.  I will only be listening to music and all of a sudden there is no battery left.  What can I do to fix this?

    Make sure things like wi-fi, bluetooth, and location services are turned off. Also, if you listen with the screen on, battery drains faster, so you should always sleep the iPod when using it for music.
    Hope this helps!

  • Changed the battery in my ipod touch.  now the only thing it does is shows the apple logo.  tried the resets,  tried to go through itunes.  computer doesnt recognize its plugged up

    i just installed a new battery into my wifes ipod touch.  after charging it all night,  all it will do is show the apple logo.  ive tried reseting,  ive tried going through itunes.  doesnt respond to either. the computer doesnt even reconize that its hooked up.  please help me.

    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.

  • Can I go to an Apple store to replace the battery of my iPod touch 4th Generation without a proof-purchase or if I brought it somewhere else?

    I have an iPod touch 4th Generation that needs battery replacement after 2 years of use. Can I go to an Apple Store in my area to get my battery replaced? I brought the iPod in another store. Do I need a proof-of-purchase or it is too late due to the way past of Apple's warranty or I can't due to not officially not purchasing the iPod touch at the Apple Store? I welcome your feedback. Thank you!

    Apple will replace your iPod with a refurbished one for $79 (USA) or you could do a Google search on "replace iPod battery" for a local or on line repair place that will replace the battery for less.  You can even find a replacement battery (same search) and replace it yourself if you're up to it.
