What to do if dropped my iPod touch in cleaning chemicals?
Sooo i dropped my ipod in some mr.clean without noticing and it was like a spill of it but my screen was already cracked then my screen started flickering now i cant turn it back on !!!!!!???? >_< Please help
Cleaning solutions are specifically intended to penetrate where even water won't go, and water is bad enough.
Your iPod may be squeaky clean but I believe it will tweet for you no more
Go to an Apple Store. They may exchange it for a refurbished model at a substantial discount from a new one. Yours can't be fixed.

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My daughter dropped her iPod Touch on cement and shattered the screen. It still works, but I am afraid it won't for long. I do not want to attempt a repair myself...does the Apply Store do this type of replacement/repair and for how much? I spent over $300 on this thing and I'm not buying another one. Thanks.
The home owner's policy may so give it a shoot.
The apple warranty which only covers material defects does not cover abuse which is what Apple will classiy dropping it as.

What would apple do if my ipod touch is broken and is still under warranty?
What would apple do if my ipod touch is broken and is still under warranty?
It depends on how it was broken. Apple are very strict when it comes to enforcing warrantys so unless the damage was a result of a manufacturing error then you have little chance of having your device replaced or serviced without having to pay a fee.
The warranty states that Apple do not cover;
damage resulting from accident - ie. accidentally dropping it
liquid damage
disassembly
unauthorised service - ie. trying to fix the hardware yourself
unauthorised modifications - ie. "jailbreaking" -
What do i do if my iPod touch 4g wont let me update or download any apps?
what do i do if my iPod touch 4g wont let me update or download any apps and it keeps asking me to sign in to my apple acount?
- Try resetting 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.
- I would also try signing out of your account and signing back in. Go to Settings>Store to do that. -
hi I recently dropped my ipod touch and now it wont connect to itunes. Everytime i plug it in, i get an error message saying that the usb device is not recognized
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 another cable
- 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.

I dropped my iPod Touch in a puddle on a camping trip and I sent it to the Pod Drop. I told them that I am only concerned about getting the photos of my family and friends from the device. I know that all of the songs are saved in iTunes on my computer. They told me that they were not able to retrieve the pictures from my device. I recently sync'ed my iPod Touch before it broke. Do the photos that I save on my iPod Touch save to iTunes or to my computer when I sync the device? If so, how do I retrieve those pictures from iTunes or from my computer?
Also, if I buy a new iPod Touch how can I transfer my songs from iTunes to the new device?
Thanks!
LukePhotos taken by and saved to the iPod are included in the backup that iTunes makes evetime you sync or if do a manual or iCloud backup.
Per the following the backup includes:
iTunes: About iOS backups
Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
Thus if you backed up after the photos were taken yuo can restore an iDevice from that backup -
The other day I dropped my ipod touch and the screen cracked and my warranty is up how do I get it fixed. Do I buy a screen and bring it to Apple to repair od do I have to repair it. Please help me
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". Some places also will sell parts and instructions for doing the repair yourself, but the connectors and parts are delicate and it's easy to cause further damage, so attempt this only if you are confident in your skills.

I dropped my ipod touch and now it wont charge
I dropped my ipod touch and now it wont charge. When I plug it in to charge it just keeps going off and on.
Not Charge
- 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.
