Should I get the iPod Touch? (Also a question about the screen issue)

Hi,
I recently purchased the 8GB iPod Nano, and now i'm considering to add a $100 and get the iPod Touch 8GB. Would you guys recommend it?
Another question I had was that I heard about the iPod Touch having some Screen Issues, and read somewhere that if the Box has a picture of Macy Gray then its Bad. But I personally think the Macy Gray image is for the 8GB, and the other artist is for the 16GB.
Is there a 100% definite way for me to find out if it has a good screen or not?
Thanks in Advance!
Saeid.

Ok, I recommend the iPod Touch. 8GB is fine, and totally worth the $$.
The screen issue has been fixed by a firmware update, so as long as you update to the latest firmware, you should be in the clear.
I have a 16GB macy Gray and it is working perfectly so far (1 week of ownership)
However, you mentioned using your iPod in the rain. If you do so, the Touch is not for you! I would not want to get water even near it, because the technology could be very very sensitive to water. It was raining here the other day (in Los Angeles) and I was so scared to use the touch that I took my 8GB 3gen Nano with me instead. And I was still scared to use that.
You will have to take the touch out and look at it if you are going to operate it properly.
The good news:
you can make playlists on the go! That means you can, while it is still dry, set a nice playlist without connecting to your computer. But, if the volume needs to be adjusted, there is a shortcut that would take just a bit of memorization and careful skill. In your pocket, you can double tap the home button, and then the volume, pause and track forward/backward "buttons" pop up. If you can memorize their position and hit them right, the Touch can be operated in your pocket. But make sure your hands are dry!
So it's up to you. I think quality wise, the Touch has had most of its bugs worked out. The only things that will come in the future are additional features.
Good luck and I hope you get it.

Should I get an iPod touch 4g or an iPod touch 5g?

Last August, the power button of my IPod touch 4g got jammed. I went to the apple store and they gave me an entirely new ipod 4g. Last week however, my ipod 4g's battery suddenly could not hold a charge AT ALL(As soon as I unplug it, it dies). I then went to the apple store and they told me that I would have to pay $99 for another new ipod. I said I would wait a few day to see if it would get bette. Now, even when it is plugged in, it "runs out of power" after a several minutes and takes another 1 or 2 to restart, I have restored it and it has done no use. And also, the other day, I was doing FaceTime with a friend (while being plugged in and dying every 7 minutes or so) and I realized that the case was too tight. At first I paid no mind to it, but later I saw that the screen was starting to come up from the metal back! So do you think I should pay the $99 for another IPod touch 4g, or pay $270 (On sale) for an iPod touch 5g. I really want Siri and a lot of other stuff on the 5g, but the thing holding me away from the 5g is the lack of a ambiant light sensor.

It is up to you. If ony the battery is bad, Apple will exchange yur iPod for a refurbished one for $79.
A third-party place like the following will replace the batter for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. You can purchase a replacement battery for about $10

Should I get the iPod Touch 5g 16 or 32 gig?

So I've had the iPod Touch 4 for 3 years, it's only 8 gigs, there are scratches everywhere, the home button is broken, the front camera doesn't work, and it's really slow. But I've been trying to convince my self to wait until they (probably/most likely) release the 6g next year. But yesterday I dropped my iPod and the top left of the screen cracked, and now glass is coming out. So now I really want a new one for Christmas. But I'm not to sure if I should get the 16 or 32 gig, and knowing me, when they release the 6g(if they ever do) or I'll get a phone, I'll want it. So I'll probably only use the 5 for a year. The loop and the gigs difference from to 2 models really don't make a difference to me, but the back camera does because next summer I'm going out of country and I would like to take pictures with it. Which one do you think I should get?

Like everyone else has said-- forget the 16g no back camera just a front camera, great if you're a narcissist, not much use for taking pictures of the countryside. 32g will get you by, but you will fill that up in about a week, unless you plan to dump the pictures onto your computer and clear them off your iPod. Personally I have a 64g with approximate 32g free space. The used spaces is as follows approximate15g with photos and video, approximate 1900 songs using 7.6g (I use the 128 compression for the music otherwise it would take up at least 32g) and approximate 2.3g filled with apps and other. Hope this helps you with your decision. Good luck.

Should I get the iPod Touch 5 16 gb or 32 gb?

Hello Apple Shupport Communtiy. I am wondering first of all if the newest iPod touch (5th generation) 16gb has a rear facing camera? I know for certain that the 32 gb version has a rear camera but I have seen ipod 5th generations have no rear camera. So the question is, does the ipod 5th generation HAVE a rear camera on their 16gbt devices and are Apple selling these iPods wih rear facing cameras? I have read several websites, mainly those from the middle of 2014 saying that the "smaller" iPods have no cameras on the back like this website: http://www.macworld.com/article/2040646/review-16gb-fifth-generation-ipod-touch- comes-down-to-cash-capacity-and-camera.h…, Should I get a new iPod touch from apple or from third party companies like amazon or ebay? Let me know down below! I am planning to get one by the end of this week and I want to know for sure that I am getting the right iPod:)

What I am trying to figure out is that the 16gb ipod 5 has a camera on the back or not. I have read several websites saying that this ipod has no camera while the 32 and 64gb ipods have the camera in the back. Then i found out on Apple's website that the "newer" version of the 16gb ipod touch now HAS the camera. This is what I anm trying to verify and I will buy the 32gb ipod since I had the previous ipod with the same amout of storage space and I never ran out of space compared to my iphone 4 which has 16gbs and I constantly had to delete apps and music that I didn't want to delete so 32 gbs of storage is ALWAYS the best way to go unless you like to put a lot of pictures, videos, or movies on your phone.

Should I get the iPod Touch 5th Gen or wait for the 6 gen?

I am going to buy the iPod touch 5 gen 32gb but I don't know if I should wait for the 6th Generation
Is there any rumors of the iPod touch 6th generations

The 5th gen iPod touch has only been released for around 10 months. Before that it had been almost two years since the 4th gen was released. There have been no rumors of a new one, and even if there had been, they wouldn't be allowed to be discussed on this forum.

Should I buy the iPod touch 5g

Help should i get the iPod touch 5g

I have a iPod touch 4th gen and a 5th gen:
If you use your ipod alot or you play lots of games on it i would recommend paying the extra money for the 5th generation BECAUSE:
• the screen is SUPERB! (The same used on the iphone 5)
• the camera is WAY better,also has a led flash which is really bright,(you can use it as a torch as well)
• its a lot faster loading and playing games.
If you only use your ipod for music and social networking dont bother,because you really wont notice the difference.
I HOPE I HELPED!

Why can't I get the iPod Touch in color with 16 GB?

Hi! Happy Thanksgiving. So I really want to get the iPod touch 5th Generation for christmas/birthday (they're pretty close to eachother) however the one I want, which is the pink one, is about 70 $ more than the black one. After searching around for a little bit, I discovered that it's because the colored iPods have 32 GB as the lowest option, while the back one has 16 GB as the lowest. I would be perfectly happy with 16 GB considering the price reduction, but I really only want it in the color. So, why IS it that the colors don't come in a lower option on GB? Thanks!
PS. If anyone finds any great Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals on the iPod Touch 5th Generation (colors) please leave an answer for that also! Thanks so much! x

So basically... Apple just made that weird random rule..?
It is not a rule. it is the decision that they made when producing the product.
They simply chose not to make the 16GB in other colors.

Why can't I get my iPod touch to connect with my wifi?

I am unable to get my iPod touch to connect to my wifi even though I've verified the password is correct. Can anyone help?

Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router

If I purchased an ipod shuffle in 2011, and I am wanting to get an ipod touch in a few weeks, would I be allowed to purchase one, or would I be told that I couldn't by a store?

What are the rules of purchasing an ipod?, Do you have to wait until your ipod won't charge anymore to get a new one?, I bought the most recent ipod shuffle in two thousand eleven, and it wasn't what I expected it to be, and I am planning on getting the ipod touch in a few weeks with my own money. What are the pros and cons of the ipod touch?, I have a friend who has the ipod touch and he says it is amazing!, also what is better the black player, or white player? What earbuds could I purchase?, The original ones that come with the ipods hurt my ears and they don't stay in well, also is it necessary to get a case, or should I just forget about it?, is facetime free or do you have to pay for it?. Is it necesary to have 32 gb?, or should I stick to 8 gb?

no, you have every right to buy an ipod, no matter how receant your old one. plus the company wants the money from buying an ipod. Pros and cons of ipod touchs are generally up to the user, but they are pretty cool. Black or white depends on your choice. Earbud wise, you could go for out of ear ones like headphones or even those ones with a removable tip. You WILL NEED A CASE for your ipod, as of they absorb shock if the ipod is dropped and prevents the thin glass screen from breaking. facetime is free as long as there is wifi. As to whether you want a 32gb or 8 gb is up to you, how much space do you want? What i will tell you about having an 8gb with apps, songs and movies it that it is actually really small. so it all depends on what you put on it. THERE are NO rules of purchasing an ipod.

I did every step including reinstall intunes to get my IPod touch to sych with intunes and not show up as a camera and nothing works. I even updated the device drivers. Genius bar at apple store told me the ipod was fine, the problem was my intunes. Help

I did every step including reinstall intunes to get my IPod touch to sych with Itunes but it fail to recognize it as anything other than a camera. It still recognize my Ishuffle as a device. The Genius bar as an Apple store told me the Ipod worked on their Apple PC, my pc is not an apple, I attemped every step to rectify the situation including updating the device drivers. I wonder if I need to eliminate every old residue with the word Apple in it on my computer to get it up and going again. Please help !

If not this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
Also heating sometimes works. See:
Why can't I select my wifi settings?
A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Then:
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.

How can you get your ipod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to wifi

How can you get your iPod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to the Internet Connection and you don't want to reset it.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

How to get an ipod touch out of recovery mode.

I want to get my iPod Touch out of recover mode and i don't know how I got into it.
All that happened was that my iPod Touch ran out of battery, so I plugged it into my MacBook and when it turned on I just got the Connect to iTunes screen.
I tried turning it off and then on again but to no effect.
I also tried holding down the Home and Power button until the apple logo shows up then release but that still did not work.
What should I do to get it out of recovery mode without restoring??

If re-starting the AMDS driver doesn't work, you can try removing iTunes and AMDS, then re-installing iTunes (which will re-install AMDS).
If that doesn't work, try putting the Touch into DFU mode. You kind of mentioned it above where you held the buttons down while connected to iTunes, but it didn't sound exactly correct and it can be a little tricky to get the timing down.
While having the Touch connected to the computer (and iTunes running) hold the Sleep and Home buttons until the Touch screen goes black (about 10 seconds). When that happens release only the Sleep button -- keep holding the Home button until iTunes says it found a device in recovery mode. At that point you release the Home button and will have to Restore the device, and you can try re-loading your last backup after the Restore process completes.
