  • My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good. My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and also I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel.

    My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good for me. My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel. Also my itunes doesn't allow "enable disk use" anymore. Can anyone help? My ipod now says that it's the 4.3.4 version

    - Unjailbroken iPod never showed % battery.  Just the icon.
    - Unjailbroken iPod Touches never had a disk mode.
    - What happens when you try to drag a wiggling app to a empty space in the bottom? Does it move and snap back?

  • Can I enable battery percentage on my iPod touch 4th generation running iOS 5.1.1 without being jailbroken?

    Can I enable Battery percentage on my iPod touch 4th generation running iOS 5.1.1 without beig jailbroken?

    You can enable battery % on ipod touch 4g without jailbreaking it you can use backup bot for itunes. Thats how i enabled it on mine. Step 1: goto http://www.icopybot.com/ibackupbot_setup.exe download and install it if you have windows. Step 2: Next create a backup of your device in iTunes and then CLOSE iTunes (or else you may run into problems later on) do not lock the backup with a password. Step 3: Open iBackupBot. Click the backup you just made Next click "Path" to sort by Path. Step 4: Look for Library/Preferences/com.apple.springboard.plist and double click it. On the registration screen that comes up, hit cancel. Step 5: Find <dict> and create a new line after it. Then add this: 
    <key>SBShowBatteryLevel</key>
    <true/>
    Step 6: Hit CTRL + S or just the save button at the top left corner of that editor window. Now close the window.
    Step 7: Right click that same backup you just edited
    Step 8: click restore
    Step 9: Done! If you don't see the changes, reboot your iPod.
    Enjoy I hope you found this useful!

    I don't know the percentage of my battery in the iTouch. Help please!

    - You can purchase one of many apps. Note that % battery is not that accurate.
    - You can turn on Accessibility Voice Over feature and when you touch the battery icon the iPod will speak the % battery. See:

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • Ever since I have updated my iPod Touch 4 to iOS 6.1.3 I have had the battery percentage like the iPhone does but you can't turn it off?

    Basically the title of the discussion. Please help.

    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.
    - 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.

  • How do I maximize the battery life for my iPod touch?

    Hi,
    I am the proud new owner of an iPod 5th generation. My question is how can I maximize the batteries lifetime? Is there a certain percentage the battery should stay in between  Should it be plugged in whenever possible, does that circumvent the battery and just keeps it alive until taken out, and then switches back to using the battery?
    Anyway, any tips would be helpful. I already keep all features off that I don't need, such as bluetooth, messages, facetime etc.
    Thanks, GreatAndRandom

  • Can I get battery percentage on my iPod touch 5?

    I want to know the percentage of my battery can I get that? If I can, how?
    iPod touch 5 32gb

    There is no battery % option in Settings like there is on iPhone and iPad.

  • Can I enable battery percentage on my iPod Touch 5g?

    I have a friend whom has an ipod touch 4g that is NOT jailbroken and they have the toggle switch in settings just as an iPhone would. How come I do not have the same switch?

    I followed your link. I could not test it because I do not have any iPod, and also because I do not feel safe with the suggested method.  Some users report more battery use and one even problems which made him remove the Battery%.
    There is some doubt that the method could void garantie and I have some doubt about this matter too.  There should be some reason why Apple does give this option on iPods.  The suggested method use a third party software and creates something which is not reported in the official documentation.
    Is it enought to label this method as Jailbreaking ?
    Am I too much on the safe side ?
    I know it is a small change but I whould be carefull.
    I whould appreciate your comment.
    Thanks

  • Ow long should the battery last on an iPod touch 4g?

    My iPod touch 4g with IOS4 (I daren't upgrade to 5 after hearing the battery problems people have had with it!) takes two hours to fully charge and the battery lasts for only a measly 3-4 hours before I need to chage it up again! As you can understand this makes it pretty much useless as a portable device. It drains faster when using certain apps, especially most games, windows live messenger and the Facebook app, it even drains while switched off so I cannot rely on the alarm function to wake me up in the morning either! It has been like this ever since I boughtbit brand new at christmas from HMV. I payed a lot of money for my iPod and I will feel incredibly cheated if this is the best it can do. Could anyone tell me how long an iPod touch 4g battery should last, and how long yours does so I can see if the problem's widespread or if I have a faulty battery? I would be so grateful. Also if the poor battery life is a common problem what can I do to make it last longer? And if I have a product with a faulty battery which I did not purchase from an apple store how do I go about getting repairs? Thank-you for your time.

    iPods can only last about 2 hours playing games 3-4 hours on wi-fi 10 hours music 7 days on standby so yea you have a good capacity some dont even last for an hour like my old one apple needs to improve battery life also don't over charge or leave case on well charging it will lower battery capacity and fri the battery hope this was useful =P
