Selling iPod 4th Gen to get 5th gen, but.......?

Hi folks.
I'm currently selling my iPod 4th Gen to raise funds for my 5th gen. I won't be able to order the 5th gen until I have the funds from my 4th gen sale, and I just want to ask, how long does delivery take to the UK?
Also, is the warranty transferable? And does anyone know how I would transfer to warranty to the buyer?
Thanks,
Tez

The warranty should be fully transferable, but you might need the original paperwork for when you purchased the phone, such as a sales receipt or order confirmation. This is used for proof of date of purchase, but I contacted Apple regarding the same issue and they said in some cases the warranty was still valid as long as the original UPC was still on the box for the iPod. Also, the Extended Apple Care Protection Plan is available for purchase for who you sell the phone to, given that it's still under the original warranty. I believe it's $59, and for people buying a used iPod from someone else, it's usually a good idea to go ahead and extend the warranty. I did the same thing and sold my 30GB iPod Photo on ebay in order to buy the new 60GB, and ended up getting about $240 for it, so good luck.

Swapping 4th Gen for 5th Gen.........

Thanks for reading post to start with =)
Anyway back to my problem, i have heard from a few people that apple, and perhaps a retail shop (namely currys), will swap you your old ipod 4th gen, 20gb for a new ipod, either nano or video 5th gen. I would like this clearing up as it seems unlikely but the people swear by it. Thanks

For your trade-in 4th Gen iPod, Apple will give you 10% off a new iPod. You might be better off selling your iPod and putting that towards the new one.

My ipod 4th gen screen kept jumping this morning. Had to do a restore on it and it is working fine now. However, when I did the restore it did not load the Nike app that was factory installed on my ipod. I use this app daily. Any idea how to get it back

My ipod 4th gen screen kept jumping this morning. Had to do a restore to factory conditions and it is working fine now. However, it originally had a factory installed Nike+ app on it and it did not install with the restore. I use this app daily with the running chip to log my workouts. Anyone know how to get this app back from Apple? Loading the Nike app from the app store is not the same thing as you need gps running continually for it to work (as with an iphone). Can't have that with my ipod unless I'm connected to wifi. Help?? Thanks.

If you go to Settings do you see an entry for the Nike app? There is no way to delete or hide that app?
Have you tired using the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find it.
Next would be to restore a gain. First from backup then next to factory settings/new iPod.
The Nike app you can download/install
Nike+ Running for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad on the iTunes App Store
Does work on the iPOd. You just do not get all the information that GPS/cellular connection can get. You will still be able to get distance/footstrikes like the installed app an you do not need the shoe sensor.. It uses the built-in sensors on the iPod

Ipod 4th gen affected by ios6

i have had my ipod 4th gen for 11 months and recently it had started to play up and so i went to the apple store who agreed and replaced it with a new one which i was unable to pick up until the day after the launch of the new iphone as they had run out of stock. when i went home with my new ipod and it installed the ios6 and i started having problems straight away, i could not access my game centre via my user name and login details, the app store was also giving me problems where it would log me out every time i would try and view a app that i was interested in. the ipod was also running extremely slow and so i went back to the store on monday this week 3 days after new launch. they agreed that there was a problem and replaced it with another new ipod 4th gen and so i went home again and found that i still could not access the game centre and the app store was shutting back to home screen every time. i then went back to the store againg on tuesday and the guy who i had my appointment with i started to go through this issue with the game centre and he said that it is probably needs to be restored to factory settings and i said that i had the issue with the app store and he said well the appointment is only for 10 minutes. i said that i have been in 4 times in 8 days and cannot afford to keep on coming in to the city every day and so he ended up helping by restoring back to factory settings which then allowed a app that was featured to download succesfully so he figured that the problems had been fixed. when i got home i discovered that the issue was still there and have also found that there is an issue with internet connection saying not connected when it is connected, unable to send imessages to previous contact and also the battery life has become extremely poor and has needed charging twice a day at least where as i was previously able to go through the whole day with only needing to charge overnight.
now i here that there are similar issues with the new iphone and ios6 and am wondering what i can do as this is so annoying and not good enough as i now only have a further 90 day warranty which could mean i could end up with a useless ipod which has been corrupt since the changeover from my 11 month old ipod

I solved it myself by dropping the iPod repeatedly, from a height of about 2 feet. I just hit it hard against a flat surface whenever the hard drive starts giving me the Click of Death. As crazy as this sounds, it's kept the thing running!

IPod 4th gen unrecognized by Mac or PC, even after reset, restore, disk mod

I recently purchased an iPod 4th gen from eBay. When it arrived, it was working perfectly. It came with music pre-loaded, some of which I liked, so I tried several programs to extract the music. I ended up using iPodDisk.app, but in the process of transferring and deleting music I somehow mucked up the iPod, because iTunes demanded that I restore it.
Okay, fine. I restored it, only to discover that it required that I plug it into an AC adaptor to complete the restore! Fast-forward to today, when the adaptor arrived in the mail and I completed the restore. My iPod at first appeared to be back into prime condition.
Then I plugged it into my Mac, and nothing happened. The iPod did not recognize that it was plugged in, and neither iTunes nor PathFinder recognized it. (I tried opening Finder, and it didn't recognize the iPod, either.) I then hooked it up to my Windows desktop; no dice. So I tried a reset; no change. I tried forcing it into Disk Mode, and had to deal with the "Okay to Disconnect" message of death for a while before I could reset it again. Now the iPod seems to be working fine, with the exception of its inability to interface with any computer!
I'm thinking of ordering a new USB cable, as some of the casing on the iPod end has been stripped off, so perhaps the cable has been compromised. (Unfortunately I don't have another iPod to test it with.) Assuming the result is the same with another USB cable, what might the problem be, and how might I fix it?

IPod 4th Gen. Stuck on AC ADAPTER icon

So, I have a 20GB iPod 4th Gen and it was working fine. Haven't used it much over the last few years. However, all was operational. Recently pulled off old songs to transfer back to my Mac, everything was visible (hard drive and songs in iTunes) and it worked fine in the newest Bose SoundDock . . . battery was certainly weak by now I'm sure. Never had problems with it at all over the years . . .
Anyhow, went to restore it and upgrade the software and all seemed OK. Used the USB 2.0 cable to do that in iTunes. Looked good . . .
Went to go and plug it in with the original AC Adapter (which is only for FireWire) as instructed and got stuck with the AC Adapter icon and won't complete the operation (tried 2 FireWire cables). Tried resetting, no dice. AC icon appeared each time.
Now it has a battery charge Icon . . .
I can't believe it's now seemingly bricked!
So, I'm hoping it's 2 easy things:
1.) Bad AC adapter
2.) Bad battery
So annoyed, because I probably could have used it for years plugged into the SoundDock or USB adapter, had I left it alone.
Any ideas?

Plugged into SoundDock, which must have charged it enough to now show the AC Adapter "plug-in" icon. Still no dice.
I know this is an old unit, but there has to be a logical solution. Any experience or solving advice appreciated.

How can i get my music off of my email to my iPod touch 2nd gen and iPod 4th gen?

How can i get my music off of my email to my iPod touch 2nd gen and iPod 4th gen?

Find an app to which you can save the attachment and which also uses file sharing
iOS: About File Sharing
or similar to get the music into your computer. Import into iTunes library and sync to the iPod. There is no direct way to get music into your iPod Music app besides purchasing from iTunes or syncing from your iTunes library
GoodReader should work but I do not think it is available for the 2G

IPod 4th Gen problem with MMJ

Can anyone help me out, i am trying to connect my iPod 4th Gen with MMJ ver. 9. Unfortuantly the old plugin does not work.
I have always been a great Apple fan but i find it hard to believe that Apple would sacrifice is customers happiness with it's race to win the competition between iTunes for Windows and Musicmatch Jukebox.
iTunes is a great program but it's it is severally lacking in regards to it's "Smart Playlist" which is a very very small compare-sent to the "AutoDJ" function in MMJ.
Can anyone let me know if there is a plugin out there that would connect both together easily. I currently have to use Anapod Explorer to connect my iPod to MMJ.

Hi Blue Ocean Girl,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If the sleep/wake button is not working on your iPod nano, I suggest trying to restore it using iTunes. If the button still doesn't work after restoring, then you have isolated the problem to the iPod hardware itself.

Yes if you purchase the tethering data plan for your iPhone. See:

How do i sign out of imessage/facetime on my ipod 4th gen

i would like to sign out of my imessage/facetime on my ipod 4th gen as i have a new one 5th gen and its not letting me log in on it as im still loged in on the 4th gen,

Hi poppetfloaty16,
To sign out of iMessage and Facetime, open the Settings app. Open the 'Messages' tab. At the top, you should see a toggle-switch for iMessage. If it shows iMessage as enabled, tap the toggle-switch to disable it. This should sign out of it.
Next, open the Facetime tab, and do the same.
Hope this helps!

How do I update ipod 4th gen to ios 7 to use aple tv?

Received an aple tv device for christmas. It says it can be used with ipod 4th gen or laterf but I can't update the ios on the ipod to ios7. Please help!

Apple TV only works with bluetooth keyboards, the pairing with IOS is only for setup purposes and requires 5th gen iPod Touch anyway.
You can use basic airplay to stream content through apps (if the developer has enabled it)

I attempted to updated my Ipod (4th Gen) to iOS 6 today on my computer. When updating an error occurred, it then said i needed to restore it so i did. It then came up with another error. Now, everytime i turn my ipod on, it asks me to connect to iTunes

Today, i attempted to update my iPod (4th Gen) to iOS 6 on my computer. When it was updating it came up with an error, it then asked me to restore my iPod which i did. During this process it came up with another error. Now, everytime I turn on my iPod, it asks me to connect to iTunes. When i do this, it connects to the computer but doesnt show up in iTunes. How do i fix this?

Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.
