Why Isn't My iPod Touch 5G Recording Any Audio on Video, Why Isn't My iPod Touch 5G Recording Any Audio on Video

Out of no where my iPod Touch 5G Stopped recording Audio. When I try to take a video, after I listen to it I can only hear a quiet hissing sound. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

- Make sure the mic hole is clear and unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back by the camera lens(if has back camera). For the 16 GB one without the back camera the mic hole is on the top edge near the center.
- Open the Voice Memos app and see if you see movement on the VU meter needle with changes in noise level trying to be recorded.
- 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.
- 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. See:                                 
iOS: How to back up                                                                
- 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. Some other 5G users have reported hardware problems with their mics. If the iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchnage it at no cost

    " isn't it supposed to be 5mp?"
    No.
    "still photos (960 x 720) with back camera"
    That is about .7 MP.

  • Why isn't my iPod touch 3rd gen not turning on?

    Okay, so I turned my off and put it in my purse to go into a store. When I came out, not but at least 10-15 minutes later, I can't turn my iPod back on. It wasn't about to die when I turned it off, but I just assumed it died. I went home and but it on charge, then about an hour later when I went to check it, it still hadn't turned on. I tried holding the sleep button, holding the sleep and home screen button together for 10-30 seconds several times, and even plugging it into my computer but acted as if there wasn't anything plugged into the computer at all, (it didn't even pick it out I guess is another way of saying it?) I don't understand why it won't turn on, it was working perfectly. Perhaps the fact the it was 3 years old? Is there any hope in my iPod ever turning on again? Any advice or tricks would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    After charging for half an hour, place the iPod in recovery mode and see if iTunes wll see it so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • Why isn't my ipod touch not recognized by itunes it's a new ipod?

    Hello, priscilla235. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • Why isn't my ipod touch being recognized by my mac?

    Why does my mac recongized my ipod touch? I need to transfer music off of it

    Hi rybenjamin,
    Have you tried a different USB cable? Do you have a different USB port on your Mac you can try? If not, then using a clean, soft toothbrush, gently clean the USB port on the Mac and then try again. Also, make sure your cable is working - use a different one if you have one.
    One last thing - have you tried rebooting your Mac?
    Cheers,

  • Why does my iPod Touch stop recording videos when it says low battery

    OK I would record a long video, about 20 minutes to be approximate. In the middle of my recording, my iPod tells me my battery is low - I have 20% of battery left. But when the message shows up, it stops recording my video and shows a closed lens on the camera!!!
    Then I have to force close the app then restart it. Then I have to make a second video. Is there anyway to tell the iPod Touch low battery warning to shut the f**k up and stop interrupting and stopping my recordings? It is VERY annoying. Please reply soon.

    Not that I know of. The 20% warning is like the low fuel light on your car's gas tank, it doesn't know when you'll run out of gas only that it's soon. The reason it stops what your doing is to protect the battery. Completely discharging the battery is very bad for the battery and shortens the life of the battery. Hope this helps, Good luck.

  • Why isn't my second ipod touch listed as a device in itunes

    My 4th generation ipod touch is not listed as a device in iTunes. Why not?  Additionally, my device's version is ios 6.1.6 and says it is currently updated but periodically, when I try to install "apps" updates, the screen freezes during some updates and says "Unable to download app at this time."  Tonight my device says there are updates needed, but it won't even go to the update screen.  I am so confused. Please help me.

    -The 4G iPod can only go as high as iOS 6.1.6. Its hardware prevents going to iOS 7
    - For not in Devices:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Or
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    paying special attention to item #5
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • Why isn't the itunes app on my ipod touch anymore?

    My iPod doesn't have the iTunes app, but I know I used to have it. Now, I only have it on my iPad.
    I don't know why the app isn't present on my iPod, but I do need it there.

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPod has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • Why isn't my iPod touch 4th gen not turning on after getting the ios 5 installed?

    I just installed the new iOS 5 to my iPod touch 4th gen tonight and when I got home from dinner (about 10min ago) it still hadn't turned on after letting it sit plugged in for over two hours after the update. I was wondering if anyone knew why it wasn't working or if it had happened to anyone else? Any help?

    Try a manual install, as outlined in the link below.

  • Why isn't the movie I bought on my iPod Touch not showing up on iTunes?

    I purchased a video while on my iPod Touch one night, but when I got to Sync my iPod, it won't show up in the movies section on iTunes, only on my actual iPod. Is there something that makes it so that purchases on your iPod can't be transfered to iTunes or am I doing something wrong?

    Did you try to transfer it by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    It is a purchased video and not a rented video, right?  If you have a 4G iPod rentals can't be transfered to the computer.
