Washed clothes with the ipod suffle 3rd gen in the pocket.

Washed clothes with the ipod suffle 3rd gen in the pocket.
Now when turn it ON, it showed green light for two-three seconds after charging it in computer for 20 minutes and then nothing. It does not play anything, nothing hears after pressing any button. Its been like this for last 5-6 days. However, it recognizes in the itunes and shows the songs. I tried syncing it in a different computer, it was recognized there also. Still it is not working.
What to do?
plz help

1. If the device was wet you should not have turned it on or connected it to the computer, as you may have caused more damage.
2. Let the iPod dry out fully. To help it do this, store it in a sealed container with some dry rice. The rice will absorb the water from the iPod, leave it at least 3-4 days before you try it again.

Using a Composite AV Cable with an iPod Touch (3rd Gen)

I recently purchased a Composite AV Cable from the Apple Store in order to watch video I have rented from iTunes on my iPod Touch to my Sony Television. However, when I connect the cables up as per the cable instructions and play the video from the iPod, nothing happens !
Are there any settings I need to change on my iPod. The manual states there is a "TV Out" option on the Settings menu ....however that does not appear on my iPod.
Can anyone please help me ????
Many thanks in advance,
Steve

Thanks IIIass

- my iPod Touch is a 3rd gen so I referred to that guide, but have upgraded software on it to iOS5.1... so that may explain why the TV Out option has disappeared.
- I normally use the AV leads for my Wii into my TV, and so have taken those out and put the Apple leads in then gone to the "game" input screen option I normally use for the Wii. I then connect the iPod Touch to the composite lead, and then press play on the video. The screen is black with no sound !
- I have a portable TV I can test if it has the AV lead input sockets.

Have you been having problems with ipod nano 3rd gen?

Have you been having problems with your ipod nano 3rd gen? got a windows xp computer? is your pc not recognizing it? I think i may have the solution. After 2 2 hour calls to apple tech support they were stumped. we reset it again and again, reinstalled itunes again and again. and they had no solution for me. I went to my device managerand there was a device called (apple Ipod USB driver) with a yellow exclamation point. I tried updating driver but to no avail. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing. But then I had an epiphany. I went to the device manager right clicked the apple ipod usb device clicked properties then update driver. Hardware wizard went up and I chose not to install automatically. and i chose to install driver manually. and then I installed a generic usb mass storage driver in its place and presto!!! it worked! it was instantly recognized by itunes and it took me to the registration page. I did what the apple support team wasn't able to do for 4 hours. I wonder if they're accepting applications... Anyway i hope this helps anyone out there cause i know i went through a lot of stress.

the driver is just a regular usb mass storage driver. it's in your computer. it's just a matter of installing it manually where it saya to include the location of the driver click browse and choose c:\windows\system32

Sorry, but Apple never referred to any 8GB iPod touch as "3rd generation". Some dealers erroneously did, but not Apple. You must be misremembering or you misread the information presented at the time.

Ipod touch 3rd Gen not fully starting up - constantly restarting with the apple logo screen

Hi,
First of all, I cannot get my ipod touch (3rd Gen) to start up so I cannot get model specifics and version numbers - though it is iOS 5.1.1
I have obviously tried to restart it by holding the power and home button for 10 secs but this has not done anything.
At the moment, the ipod switches on and I see the black screen with the white apple logo - this stays on for about 3 minutes, then I get the little spinning circle (but it isn't spinning) for a couple of minutes, before it powers off and does this again... repeatedly. It only stopped because the battery power ran out.
I have connected it to my computer with the latest version of itunes - it appears in the devices list but just has a spinning 'loading' icon and is grayed out. As my ipod restarts the cycle again as above, my computer makes the noise as if i just plugged it back in and the above happens again in itunes.
The problem began when I updated apps (through update apps in app store) and it froze - I turned the ipod off to restart it, and now this is happening.
Any help or advice extremely grateful... I can't even access it to get it restored which is a bit of a problem as I have work notes on it. (Obviously I don't know if notes are backed up on ipod backups through itunes?)
Many, many thanks in advance!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPod Touch 3rd Gen is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

My iPod Touch (3rd Gen) is having problems with the touch screen being unresponsive, too responsive, freezing and constantly resizing. It varies between not responding when I tap the screen and acting as if I double-tap or tap and hold when I tap. Every so often it freezes for a minute or so and then comes back. The scren is constantly changing sizes too such that I often can't see most of the top status bar or other edges. This makes typing almost impossible, ruins most games and generally makes everything difficult, but otherwise the iPod is working correctly. Powering off, shutting down apps, letting it sit have not worked. This has happened once before months ago, but the issue resolved itself somehow. Is this a common problem? Is there a fix?

Try this for the freezing

Or if they don't work put it into recovery mode

You must update your iTunes software to 10.5 first then you can upgrade to iOS 5.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
According to Apple the iPod touch 3rd gen can update to iOS 5.
"iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

Hold down the on/off button and the home button for 20 to 30 sec, when the iPod starts and the Apple logo is on the screen release the on/off button but continue to hold the home button until you see the plug into iTunes screen. Connect the iPod to iTunes and you should be good to go.

I have tried holding the power home button but all that does is turn it off. When I try to start it again it goes into the same loop.

You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

HT1454 Can not get video out from my ipod touch 3rd gen. Any ideas? It should nt be diffiicult to do this on the 21 st century, or not?

After having spent EUR 130 on cables from apple, i still can not get video out from my ipod touch 3rd gen. Any ideas? It should nt be diffiicult to do this on the 21 st century, or not?

Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media. You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else. As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC. Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Ipod Touch 3rd Gen won't sync with windows

I've tried all the different troubleshooting through Apple but can't get my Ipod Touch 3rd Gen to show up on windows much less sync with Itunes. I just went through the process of fixing my Iphone so I know that Itunes is properly installed and the other drivers should be good. I even turned on Bonjour, which the one of the trouble shooting steps exposed. Any tips other then buy a new Ipod touch?

Did you do everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Including
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
New cable and different USB port?

Ipod Touch 3rd Gen Wiped with Latest iTunes Update

Hi,
I had my ipod touch 3rd gen up to date with the latest firmware 5.x whatever it was. Then recently they released a new iTunes update which i downloaded and updated. Although doing this itunes update wiped everything off my ipod. I manually manage my music and this is very annoying to have to reselect all the songs i like and to put it back in. What could be the reason for this ? and what could i do to make sure this doesnt happen again!
I had already just recently manually added all songs again when OS5 had just released and having to do it now for the 2nd time after that just seems annoying.
Please Help
Thanks!

I would just go to the Apple Store and search for headphone with mic under iPod accessories.
