Why does my iPod touch 5g die so quickly
My friend gave me his cracked iPod touch 5th Gen and I been having a lot of trouble with the battery life, I charge the iPod all night unplug it and about 5 minutes or 10 its already half way gone or the battery icon will be red and when I lock the iPod it goes back to white but then goes back to red I don't know why this is happening I was thinking it could have been because of the times its been dropped but I am not sure also the back of the iPod gets very hot when I am using it or charging mostly when I use it.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: 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 from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Why does my ipod touch 4gen keeps going back to home page when browsing on the apps store
Why does my Ipod touch 4 generation keeps going back to home page when browsing in the apps store.
I called apple 5 times today and asked me to restore it 3x the problem still exists. This problem starts to occur yesterday after upgrading to IOS6.
Apple customer service is not good enough as they cannot fixed the problem or tell me that I can change the unit as I just bought this 2 months ago.Because there is a bug in iOS 6 that effects the 4G iPod touch.

HT1975 why does my ipod touch 4th gen can't detect my location?
why does my ipod touch 4th gen can't detect my location? i thought it was because updating foursquare. i have erased and restored its settings, but i was able to use my foursquare before even after the restoration, but now it's not working even my location services is on. Though, it can detect location in other areas, but it cant detect my location at home when before it used to check-in using foursquare.

No, the iPhone can determine location by GPS and cell tower locations neither of which the iPod can do. So the fact that it works on the iPhoe does not tell you anything. It could be that your router is not in Apple's database. In that case you will just have to wait until they add it. Try using a public wi-fi source to see if location works there. -

Why does my ipod touch keep charging when im not charging it ex. 77% 78% help me please
why does my ipod touch keep charging when im not charging it ex. 77% 78% help me please
All batteries recover a bit when they sit for a little while. Also most iPod battery apps register only in 5% increments, because it is hard to really be accurate to the single percent. Just because yours shows in 1% increments does not mean it is actually accurate to that level.

Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear?
Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear? The computer seems to recognize it as a camera device, rather than a mass storage device. Does this have anything to do with the problem? When plugged in, a window pops up asking which photo program you'd like to use, and if you cancel, that's it. Even if you try to open a photo program, and download your photos off of the ipod, it still won't show up in itunes.
Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

Why does my ipod touch 5th generation die so fast?
Okay! I received my iPod Touch 5g as an Xmas gift (back in 2012). During majority of 2013, my iPod's battery barely drained as it does today. In,October of last year (when i updated to ios 7) that's when I noticed the change. It charged very quickly (100%) and went to (20%) in 40 mins. Does anyone else have this problem?
Other info:
Warranty- has been up (Xmas 2013)
Restoring: didn't solve my issue
Firmware: 7.1.2
p.s. I have an iPhone 5 and iPad 2 on the same firmware. they were not affected as much as my iPod has been.First try:

What live to yo get if you charge overnight?
If same then that indicates your battery is wearing out.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.

Why does my iPod Touch keep changing the date and year?
Whenever I charge my iPod Touch after it completely dies, Safari never loads whatever site I'm trying to go on and the date always goes to Thursday, January 1st, 1970. I noticed the time always changes as well. i.e. it's 10:47am now and the time on the iPod says 5:35am. I don't know how or why it keeps doing this. I didn't mind it the first 2 times, but this keeps happening everytime I turn it on. Does anyone else's do this??
Hi eskimoerin,
reset & software update could fix the problem.
Don't forget to backup your data from iPod. -
Why does my ipod touch turn off and not turn on for a while
every once in a while my ipod touch turns off and wont turn back on for a day or two. So why does it do this, it is from over use of the ipod?
Try the following fixes in order:
- Reset:
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.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restore the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod
If yo still have the problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
