Why does my Ipod have no sound?

I looked on other forums and found many, many people complaining of the same thing.  I was using my Ipod, it got loud with static, and then went totally dead.  I have tried resetting it; restoring it to original condition, etc.  Nothing works.
I have found on-line that most people said it is a defect in the soldering on the one board, that this is quite common.
Any help and if this is a common problem, will Apple fix it even though it is now out of warranty?

Likely not.  Here is an extensive thread on the subject if you'd like to have a look.

  • Why does my iPod have bad sound quality?

    Hi!
    I have an iPod Touch 8gb.
    iOS 4.3.4
    Jailbroken...
    About 3 months ago, my headphone jack broke and was stuck in my iPod...
    I got it out a week ago..
    But the sound quality is really bad.
    Theres too much echo, not enough bass and too much distortion and gain...

    Based on other user's expereince, the headphone jack is damaged and requires replacement provided that the problem is only with headphones.

  • Why does my ipod have on the screen the itunes symbol and the cord and an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol?  I can't get it to do anything.

    Why does my ipod have on its screen the itunes symbol and the cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol.  I can't do anything with my ipod now!

    Plug it into iTunes. If that does not work hold the power and home button untill the screen turns off then let go of the power button but KEEP holding the home button... this should bypass the connect to iTunes screen. Hope it helps.

  • Why does quick time have no sound

    Why does QuickTime have no sound?

    Why does QuickTime have no sound?
    Basically there are only three reasons there would be no sound:
    1) The file does not contain any audio,
    2) The QT codec component configuration for your system does not contain support for the audio compression format contained in the media file, or
    3) Your audio hardware/software is malfunctioning or is not properly set up/has imcorrect playback settings.
    You will have to determine the source of your problem before you can attempt to correct it.

  • Why does SRS-X3 have intermittent sound when used as speakerphone? Works fine w/Pandora - same cell

    Recently purchased an SRS-X3, primarily for use as a speaker phone.  When linked with my cell phone and using Pandora, the sound is great.  But, if I try to use it as a speaker phone, the sound breaks into intermittent bits that sound like regular intervals of sound and silence and makes the conversation coming in unintelligible.  The sound going out to the other person on the phone does not seem to have this limitation (although I can't say this for sure, because it's hard to conduct this test when you can't hear a darn thing coming in.)
    Any suggestions?  I can't find anything in the experience base that refers to this phenomenon. 

    The Vine video has video/mp4, so MP4 support needs to be present and working on your computer to make this work.<br />
    I needed to bring up the controls via the right-click context menu (Show Controls) and adjust the volume as the volume appeared to be set to zero to get sound.
    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

    Note that your System Details List shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some prefs on each start of Firefox.
    The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created it, so normally it wouldn't be there.
    you can check its content with a plain text editor if you didn't create this file yourself.
    The user.js file is read each time you start Firefox and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.

  • Why does my ipod have lines threw it

    help my ipod has colourfull lines threw it when i tried to open an app what do i do?

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software proble:
    - Reset. 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.
    - Restore the iPod from backup
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod
    If you still have the problem it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why does my iPod Touch have a white screen and how do I get rid of it?

    Why does my iPod Touch have a white screen and how do I get rid of it?

    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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • TS3694 Why does my ipod keeps powering off, and when I turned if on, I have to press down the power button and the screen button at the same time ???

    Why does my ipod keeps powering off, when I have to turn it on ... I have to press on the power button and the screen button at the same time ??? over and over again. I just got this in December 2011 as a gift.

    I am having similar 'freezing' problems with many programs (Mail, Safari, iTunes, etc.). I have done a clean install of Lion instead of an upgrade when it came out. Perhaps something went wrong with my install? I'm thinking about wiping and reinstalling.

  • Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough space available.

    Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough available space.

    The S.I. prefix Giga is used to mean both 1000x1000x1000 and 1024x1024x1024. Computer software typically uses the second version, but using the first number makes the same number of bytes appear bigger when expressed as Gb, so is favoured by hard drive manufactures.
    80Gb10 = 74.3Gb2
    It's a bit like specifying a quantity in gallons without saying whether they are US or Imperial gallons - everybody gets the same volume but one number will be bigger than the other. I could offer you a tank with 10 Imperial gallons of fuel in it - but if I tell you it's 12 US gallons it sounds like you're getting more for your money.
    Once the total size of your library exceeds the capacity of your device all you need to do is create some size limited playlists to determine what goes on the device. Don't sync all movies, sync one or two that you plan to watch soon. Likewise with TV Shows. Limit podcasts to unplayed episodes and finally create a music subset. What worked for me for some time was a smart playlist called Steve's Tunes defined as Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Exclude where Exclude was regular playlist that I would manually add to until Steve's Tunes was small enough to fit. These days I run an iPhone and have a number of smart playlists with ? Gb of most played, ? Gb of highly rated, ? Gb of recently added, ? Gb of essentials, ? Gb of unplayed etc. Each time I sync I get slightly updated selection without having to put any extra effort in.
