Too many problems please help

Hi. I have had a 5g 30gb iPod w/ video for over two years now and about a year ago I accidentally left it in the rain. Stupid I know. It worked for a couple months after that because I wrapped it in some paper towels to dry it off, but now the are a few problems. I'll start with the first one I had. One day after not using it for a while, I tried turning it on and it was completely dead. So I charged it for a good 12 hours. Next day I tried turning it on and an icon pops up that says please wait... battery is low. So I held the menu button and center button to reset it. So then the Apple logo pops up on the screen and I wait about a minute and it's still there. Couple seconds later, it shows the "sad ipod" icon. Now, if I leave it alone for about a week, it will turn on once and if I turn it off, it will show the "sad ipod" icon again. Its been doing that ever since and sometimes still shows the thing that says" please wait... battery is low" only when I have the charger hooked up. So I'm really thinking myself, that the battery is shot and I need a new one. Will Apple get me a new battery if I left it in the rain? Help please!!!

No, they won't replace your battery, once you left it in the rain it voided the warranty. Also, it is over 2 years old and the warranty has expired. You can send it to them and they will replace your battery for a fee, or you can send it to a third party site, such as http://www.iresq.com or http://www.ipodjuice.com or Google for more.

    I Made a new icloud account bc forgot my username and email and now I can't access bc says I have too many accounts on phone please help!

    If the messages says the maximum number of accounts have already been created, you will not be able to create a new one on that phone.  All you can do in that case is either reuse one of the accounts previously created or create your new account on a different iOS device or Mac, if you have one.

  • K7N415 Many Problems-Please Help

    I am by no means computer stupid, but these problems baffle me.  When I turn on my computer, my monitor does nothing, and if I look at my D-Bracket, it shows 1, 3, and 4 red and 2 green.  This means memory init error, but i know its not that.  i think its a problem with the video bc i did change the Init Display First option in the OnBoard SuperIO Device menu in the BIOS from PCI to AGP.  PNP OS is enabled, all RAM shadowing is disabled, and IRQ 15(IDE Channel 1) is enabled.  
    This is merely the beginning.  When my computer did boot, my bios does NOT recognize my processor, although it states in my manual that it supports it.  Also, the USB on my case's front panel does not function at all.  Everythign is properly plugged in, it isn't recognized by Windows.  On my homepage is my fourth problem.  I have NO CLUE how to get this sucker to work with WinXP.  I've tried searching for drivers on the Internet, but to no avail.  It's an IDE controller card, with 3 IEEE 1394, 2 outside, 1 inside.  Windows recognizes the 1394 controllers, but not the IDE controllers, claiming them to be Ricoh PCMCIA adapters.  
    Any help with any of these issues is greatly appreciated, since i've spent over two grand on my desktop, and i would love to see it functioning properly.  
    Thanks in advance.

    OK, will do.  I downloaded the NVidia drivers, and i will try them.  I'm a college student, and i wont get home again until the wkend but when i do ill post full specs on my computer.  As for my unruly card, i have no idea what im going to do.  ive checked the Ricoh website, and they only make semiconductors.  Google found nothing useful as well.  if it helps, it has 4 IDE connectors.  i remain doubtful drivers exist at all.  i found the card at a computer show.  and when i installed XP, APIC was enabled, and PNP BIOS was disabled.  ive no solution to this mess, and if it helps at all, i can start posting pictures of the card and the mobo when i get home from college.
    Once again, thank you.

  • Ipod sad face, clicking loudly...many problems, PLEASE help!

    Hi,
    My iPod shows a sad face when I plug it into a power source, and when i plug it into my computer, it shows a folder with an exclamation point. None of the instructions on the website are helping me...when I connect my ipod to my computer, a folder pops up labeled IPOD (E:). ITunes also displays a message that I need to download the new iTunes software, which I don't really want to do, I like the current version, but I will if I have to. During all of this, my iPod is clicking very loudly and when I hold it I can feel it clicking.
    I'm very worried, and not really looking forward to having to buy a new iPod.
    Thanks

    Here is a pretty comprehensive post about the sad iPod icon. Be aware that it's quite involved and contains some info that will almost certainly void the warranty. If your iPod is still within the warranty period, you should use that option first.

  • Many Problems, please help me?

    I had an old 20 Gig iPod last christmas around june it started to keep freezing until the apple logo would just go on and it would just not go on at all altogether. Now my iPod Nano that I just got TODAYis freezing. I would play a song for 2 seconds then it would skip to the next song then repeat, please someone tell me what is wrong, sometimes the Nano works fine and then it doesn't. Could there be a file that's corrupt? What should I do, ( I do not use music store, everything is from a CD, and I did a virus check.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still no luck. I tried getting in touch with adobe and no luck with that neither! Is there anyway you might be able to help?

  • X-Fi Fatal1ty Plat1num Champion Ed. problem, please help!

    9X-Fi Fatalty Platnum Champion Ed. problem, please help!? Hi there everyone,
    So i have a X-Fi Fatalty Platnum Champion Ed. and a computer with Windows 7.
    I've searched the web and i found many people saying that the card it's working and perfectly compatible so i would like to exclude this option as far as the problems that i'm having.
    So, right out of the box i've placed the front panel in with the ribbon cable and the power connected to it, then i connected the other end of the ribbon cable and finally placed the card in one of the PCI slots i have free.
    Now, when i start my PC, i don't hear any particolar "beep messages" but nothing will come on the screen, in few words my PC will not boot at all. I can hear the HDD spinning, everything sounds normal except for that "little" problem.
    So, i re-did all the connections thinking that maybe i did something wrong, but following the instruction i did exactly as told. So i tried again to power up the computer and i've noticed that the X-Fi logo is lit up (red light) and.. I don't really know if that means something or it's just something aside that doesn't really matter.. But, what is it's The PCI card is broken or there's something else?
    I did try to disable the sound card (integrated mobo sound) from the BIOS but that didn't change anything. I did try all the software options but this looks like more of an hardware problem (please correct me if i'm wrong and/or i've missed something).
    There's something that popped up in my mind.. the PSU. I noticed that i have a 300W PSU (mm.. low, isn't it's)?and i was wondering if that's enough or i need a more powerful one.. and if that's may be the case for the PCI to not work at all causing all i've already explained above. I mean.. It seems like i've installed a dead peripheral and that's impeding the computer to start up..
    I don't know.. I need clarification and help, PLEASE.
    Thank you very much in advance!

    Look at the beta thread sticked above but good luck waiting for a new driver. That beta driver has been there since January and although better than the normal driver it is still crap.
    All the boot type issues are with the SSD but if you getting in game crashes etc... under windows 8 that is simply that the driver stinks.

  • My iphone 5 32 gb has an camera autofocus problem, please help me solve this

    my iphone 5 32 gb has an camera autofocus problem, please help me solve this

    Hi teejayfs,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you've noticed unexpected behavior with your iPhone camera, start with these steps to isolate or resolve the issue:
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    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 tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone 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 to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

    Hi
    You should make a mapping for the service sapmsPRD in your /etc/services file (On Windows: C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32DRIVERSETCservices). If your instance number is 00 you will have to add the following entry:
    sapmsPRD      3600/tcp
    Good luck!
