What does this component do? ipod nano 1g
Hi,
i've had to disassemble my iPod nano 1G at some point because it came into contact with water.
I cleaned it up and it worked fine aside from the adhesive on some of the tapes on the inside being less sticky.
The circled component in the picture came off and I glued it back on. After replacing the battery yesterday I found that the same component lay on my carpet this morning, yet the iPod has been working without flaws thus far. So I'm wondering: What does this thing actually do and should I bother putting it back in?
Also, it seems that not all 1G iPods have this component. The component itself seems to be a type of electric jumper.
I'm aware that this is not the most critical issue. I'm curious though, so if anyone could provide some info on the purpose (or respectively the effect of the removal) of this component I'd very much appreciate it. =)
Have a good day!

+In the yellow rectange box it says "Downloading 2 items", and there's a little arrow in a grey circle on the left hand side.+
All I see is a little gray circle with an X to the right.
Click on your ipod's name in the source list on the left, and it might tell you the sync status instead of the download status.
Frankly, itunes is so darn fussy, I can't say I've downloaded and synced an ipod at the same time.
I think you're flirting with disaster ; )

In iTunes, next to the iPod, there will be an eject icon. This safely disconnects the iPod from your computer.

Did you try to charge it using the adapter or your computer?
If you can, let it charge for about 15min, then connect in recovery mode, described in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
If still not luck, your battery might have to be replaced:

I cannot eject my new ipod classic after sync with i-tunes on my pc due, it states, to open files being used by another application. What does this mean? How can I get my ipod to eject?
If it's a one-time "glitch," you can try restarting your computer with the iPod still connected. Try ejecting again after the restart.
If the problem recurs, you may have a process running (other than iTunes) that is accessing the iPod's storage. When connected, the iPod's "disk" is like other mounted volumes. This process may be some type of utility that continously monitors your mounted volumes for security reasons, such as to prevent access by malware.
If you know of such a program that you have running in the background, there may be a setting to exclude your iPod's disk. -
I had to get a new ipod....they said I just needed to plug it in and sync to my itunes.. I get an error 1413 when I try to follow the instructions to restore. I can't find any information on error 1413, what does this mean?
Now it keeps saying that it is restored but there is still no music or video on it. And a new error is coming up that says "We could not complete your iTunes store request.The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

I am trying to restore my ipod, and get a message: "could not restore ipod because it could not be unmounted." What does this mean? And what do I do about it?
It sounds like your PC or Mac's internal HD is full. You need to delete some data or move it to an external hard drive or storage device of some sort before you'll be able to successfully complete the restore.

my sons ipod toucj has a lock with a circle arrow around it (next to the battery life) what does this mean?
that would be the rotation lock
it can be activated and deactivated by double clicking the home button (round button at the base of the ipod)
and if you swipe along the bottom from left to right
you should see the same symbol on the left.

After downloading songs to my Playlists, when I try to

What does this mean??- Terminate the sync

- 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.
- Try again. If still problems try:
