WHAT IS UP WITH THE IPODS BATTERY?
I am on my 3rd Ipod, and every 2 god **** months my Ipod has its battery BROKEN. I have treated this one like an angel, but now it only last 9 hours at most on standby. Now I have to get a 4TH one.
Seems odd that you are going through so many iPods. Are you storing it in an oven or something? Make sure you don't store it in your car, etc, where temperatures can get high.

What's up with the ipod touch photo quality
what's up with the ipod touch photo quality
Which model iPod? The quality of the photos taken with the 4G iPod are poor unless you have optimum lighting conditions.
What do you thing is wrong with the quality? -
does anybody know what is wrong with the ipod when error 1437 is reportedduring the restore cycle?
Double check the connections on each end to make sure they are nice and snug. If possible, plug the Nano into another existing USB 2.0 port.
Also, with the iPod still connected, try resetting it. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons (or the Volume Down and Sleep/Wake buttons on the 6G Nano) long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Then try restoring the iPod again.

I could not get Best Buy's link to work, but Besy Buy sells them also. It is not hard to find it - go to Best Buy's website, on the side go to Audio and MP3, then go to Ipod and MP3 players, and search all of them, find it, and click on it, scroll down to the tabs with different information on them, click "specifications", and scroll to see what comes with it.
These are only a few of the stores you can get them from and the most popular stores I could think of.
Hope I helped! -
what is up with the iPod nano 7th gen. I just had a second one die. both after only 3 weeks of useage... both dead since Jan 10th 2013.
this is an answer I just gave to someone else.
i'm going to ask you to try something I just did to fix a maybe simular problem that worked..... but I don't know why yet........make sure your iPod in plugged into your computer (mine is a Mac) and iTunes is turned on. My iPod was also "dead" but had been plugged into my computer for a couple of hours (but not lit up in any way). Then (in desperation) I held down all the buttons, the on/off (on top right), the small Home botton at the bottom of the face, and the volume/pause buttons (left side). For whatever reasons my iPod came back to life in a needs restoring mode ....and asked me to restore it in the itunes like "new' iPod connected mode. Since I have a Mac I also had to give permission to do a download by entering my computer password. If you have to do the same have that password ready. Then it did a restore software download. Everything previously on the iPod was erased and had to be re-synced, but I was just thankful to get it up and restored again.
Give this a shot and I hope it works for you.....but why? I don't know yet, I need more questions answered. -
What is wrong with the ipod touch 4th gen battery?
I have an 8gb 4th gen ipod touch that I purchased in December 2011. I charged it completely last night after doing a full reset, and by morning the battery was only at half charge. I've turned off all unnecessary services, no apps were running, no music/video play, just in sleep mode. Still the battery drained down at least 50%.
Is anyone else experiencing these problems? Have you found a way to extend the battery charge?Try this:
iPod: How to extend battery life
You did not say if the iPod was in airplane mode. That helps a lot. With iOD 5, the battery does drain faster than before. -
What is wrong with my Ipod battery?
Hello, ive just noticed with my brand new Ipod Touch 4g 32gig that the battery is unstable"?" I was playing Modern Combat 2 on my Ipod and the battery was 53% and when i played the battery was suddenly 23%???? As i stopped the battery was 56% again? what is this and i got another problem when i was sleeping the battery was going from 56% to 29% in one night???? can anyone please help me?
good forum by the wayFirst of all, where are you getting these percentages from? Perhaps that 3rd party app is inaccurate. Also games use up a lot of the battery. And when the iPod is in sleep mode (with wi-fi on) it does drain the battery especially if fetch new data is in Push mode.

When I first bought it, I plugged in the headphones and only one of them worked. I tried the headphones on my phone and they worked perfectly fine! So that means it's not the headphones, it's the iPod. I've even went to the store and gotten a different one four times and I have the same problem!
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

Whats going on with the ipod nano not being supported by the xbox 360, the PS3 and other docks?
Why can I not play music through any of these items?
It wasn't designed to do it.

What is wrong with the screen stays black
what is wrong with the iPod if the screen stays black and won't turn on, but is fully charged.
Could be one of the two:
1. Device sleep - Press and hold power button for six seconds and see if that wakes up the unit
2. Device freeze - press and hold the power and home button for few seconds till Apple logo is seen.
Hope this helps! -
The iPod touch 5 battery won't charge, the iPod battery gets hot and doesn't turn on... What is wrong? Can photos and data be retrieved?
- 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. I suspect a hardware problem due to the hotness. If iTunes can't see the iPod then uor only hope if to contact a data recovery company for getting data off the iPod. If you have an iPod backup you can restore another iPod, iPhone or iPad from the backup to get the data that was in the backup

Hello,i have a problem with the Ipod,is that the Ipod doesn't sync all the songs in my Itunes. I have 373 songs in my Ipod and 512 sons in my Itunes. What do i do?
Hello,
I take it you haven't unticked any of the songs listed on your iTunes Library? Also have you tried selecting all your songs which you wish to add to your iPod, and dragging them over your Devices "iPod Nano"; and seeing if that copies all songs on to your iPod?
Another idea is just check that your iPod has enough space for the rest of your songs to be added to your device.
Hope this helps. -
I have an iPod Touch and an iPad4. iTunes recognises both items and lets me work with the iPod Touch but won't work with the iPad. In fact iTunes does not respond to clicking on anything in the iPad window even though it knows that it's connected. Any ideas?
Look her and it may give insite on what is missing. Otherwise:
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99. Likely not worth it for a your iPod. They do not fix yours.
