What i do if my ipod dosen´t work
my ipod now is kind of loading to open my facebook but he stopped and my buttons are functioning but to block and turn off they aren´t functionig so..... why i do because i can´t touch and my screem it´s ok but i can´t touch so.. what i do?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

"Convert Selection for iPod" Dosen't work
I want to do this with a video I got off of my Lamb of God DVD so I can have it on my iPod, but it goes through the converting process... And it will do one of two things.
Next time I plug in the iPod it will not update onto my iPod or
Two it will update onto my iPod, but with no sound only video
As for in iTunes sometimes it will convert it and it will have sound and sometimes it will convert it and it Won't have sound.
What is the proper way to convert a video file in iTunes so that it will go on a iPod when it is updated?You can try using a third-party program to convert the video for your iPod.
Try using MPEG Streamclip

WHAT HAS APPLE DONE? ipod won't work with itunes 9.0
I have an 80GB iPod, (MB147LL) when trying to sync with iTunes 9.0 the iPod gets corrupted. I have the luxury of having more than 1 type of Apple computer at home. All the computers that have been updated to iTunes 9.0 will corrupt the ipod all with itunes 8.2.1 will sync just fine. All systems are running 10.5.8 OSX. What is going on? I have several iPods and they all act the same. Surely this is not just a phenomena at my house.
I have solved the problem. You need to re-instore iTunes 8.21 by following these instructions:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10371925-263.html?tag=nl.e780
Would recommend backing every stage up though just in case.
Now plug the iPod into the computer. This is what happened. It still would not sync but said 'do not disconnect'. The iPod did this time show up on the desktop so I ejected it that way. Closed iTunes down and unplugged the iPod. Reconnected it to the computer. Opened iTunes. This time it synced. I let it finish syncing. But it still said do not disconnect. So I looked in iTunes and saw it was ticked for 'enable disk use'. Undid that and everything works just fine. -
What do I do my Ipod is not working anymore?
okay so about less than a year ago my iPods screen broke and I paid $100 to get a refurbished one, so now it's been a while and it's not working properly anymore. I need to touch things several times before it can open the app, also the music app is not working I already tried everything possible even changed it back to factory settings but it's still the same. So now the problem is I want to change my ipod, yes I bought the 2 year warranty AppleCare but I have not transferred the warranty to the refurbished ipod so I need to figure that out. thanks any help is appreciated.
The AppleCare should have transferred automatically. Check you coverage here:
Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage
If not transfered then you have to contact Apple
Contacting Apple for support and service
Since you said yo restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. -
my ipod charger dosen't work. i have three of them in my house and i i put them in my laptop and it still dosen't work. what do i do? and is it because i have generation three?
Have you tried another cable?
Do the charges work on oner iDevices?
Does the computer recognize your iPod?
Have you tried resetting your iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. -

What's wrong with my iPod's Cover Flow??
I have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen, 32Gb, and recently updated to IOS 5.
Since then, the iPod's cover flow feature is extremely slow, doesn't flow smoothly, and crashes after a few (15-20) seconds.
Today I noted something else: some album covers appear pixelated and blurry, even though HD. Those covers looked just fine until now.
As a side note, I have in use 30 of the 32 Gb (that's a lot of music, I know). Could this be related? I never had those problems before IOS 5, though.
What's wrong with my iPod?
Thanks for your help!so as I see it people with this problem have 3 options
- Make all of your album art a maximum of 500X500 pixels
- Wait for an IOS update that fixes the problem
- Scrap ipods and buy another brand of music player

iTunes never displays the iPod in the left pane?
iTunes is shipped with a "helper application" called the "iPod Service" that runs and is used by iTunes to communicate with the iPod device. This service may be disabled.
If your system is Microsoft Windows XP and you are logged in as an Administrator:
1. Quit iTunes and, if your iPod is currently connected to your computer, safely remove it using the system tray application to manage removable devices.
2. Right click on "My Computer"
3. Select "Manage"
4. In the "Computer Management" window, left pane (tree view), follow this path:
+Computer Management (local) > Services and Applications > Services+.
5. In the right pane, scroll down to "iPod Service" and double click it.
6. If the service is listed as "Disabled" and "Stopped," change to "Manual" and "Start" it. ("Manual" will cause it to start when iTunes starts and "Start" starts the service right now.)
7. Close "Computer Management"
8. Restart iTunes and wait for it to completely come up.
9. Reconnect your iPod.

What's wrong with my ipod touch 4g?
Hello, I am a student who is using MacBook Pro and iPod Touch 4G (32GB)
To jump to the topic, my liquid crystal of my iPod is broken. No, it's better to say, CRASHED.
I bought a new protecting film and case for my iPod, and i sticked and covered it.
Suddenly, the top left corner of my iPod just crashed. I was holding the player with my finger, and it just crashed.
So, what's wrong with my iPod? I'm pretty sure that it was not my fault. All I did was just holding the iPod with my two fingers and trying to fit the case.
Next, is there going to be any problem that will occur when I use this?
I am in China right now, and there are no Apple Store near the place I live. If I want to go, I have to drive there for 3-4 hours. I don't have that much time just fixing iPod. I am going back to Korea in July 2012. So, I'm thinking of just keeping my Pod in this condition until I go back to Korea. But, I'm not sure if there are going to be any problem while I am using this.
I hope the answer will come very quick, thank you.
p.s. I just started learning English, and my English is not that good...:p
p.s. 2 I bought my iPod last year April 2011.Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair".
Note, though, that there is no liquid in an LCD that can leak. That's a myth.

What is wrong with my iPod.. and how can i fix it?
ok.. my 5G iPod was working fine.. then i couldnt get it to eject from my iBook.. on my computer screen it said that it was ejected.. but i iPod never said ok to disconnect. a few moments later and my iPod was back on my computer screen.. it did this multiple times..
i eventualy shut off my computer to disconnect my ipod. and that worked fine (or so i thought)
i unplugged my iPod and went to go listen to a couple new songs i just put on it.. and it skipped through the songs without playing any of them. (when my ipod was connected to my iBook i was listening to those songs from my iPod and they worked fine)
so it was ******* me off.. i went to go turn off my iPod before i went to bed, but it wouldnt turn off.. so i decided to leave it on my deskfor the night.. it drained my battery.. that didnt bother me too much.. casue i expected it to happen.
so i plug my ipod back into my computer to charge it up.
(the iPod image does not appear in the finder or itunes)
a few hours later i go to check on it.. it just had the apple logo screen up.. so i tried resetting it.. then a screen came up and said "please wait. Very low battery" so i left it alone. i go back to check on it about 6 hours later... same thing happens over and over and over again.
(the iPod still does not appear in finder or itunes)
so what should i do?Hi,
I had the same problem. charging through the computer didn't work for me and it said (just like at yours) "please wait. Very low battery" without backlight.
I bought a adapter (which I thought had te same power as the USB, but anyway) I charged it with this piece of heaven, and it worked. It needed 1 hour to charge it. (I have a 5G iPod with video btw)
good luck!
