Technology Question about Ipod

[Bachaveli]

My Ipod is not functioning.

On the screen it appears a little Ipod icon and says to contact apple support and shit. When I try to charge it it says please wait.. its batteries are too low. I let it charge for like 10 hours but still no sign of coming back on normal.

This is why I hate this device. Theres no way you can open and reset or some shit. Theres only one button and thats it. what do I do?

You need to hold Menu + the button in the middle for a while in order to reset.

Try recharging it for 24 hours. If that doesn't work, go to the ipod support section at ipod.com. May take a while but this situation is mentioned in there.

Ipods are gay. They look pretty tho.

unless the batery has finished, hpw old is your iPod?

 

[Bachaveli]

I bought this like two years ago.

Reseting didn't work.

I've looked in apple site and I can't seem to find any helpful info.

I'm going to leave it on charging for next 24 hours and see what is going to happen.

Smash into tiny little peices and buy a device with a replacable battery:thumb:

 

[Bachaveli]

It says you can replace batteries in apple site but how will they do that? You cant open the device can you?

put it in the microwave for 2.5 seconds

I was on the phone the other day with costumer service with this half English speaking Indian guy because I had trouble connecting to the Internet. And he said to go ahead and disconnect my microwave from the power cord and see if that'll resolve the problem. I burst into laughter like 'what the hell does microwave have to do with Internet not working.'

Will that really work keco or you're just mocking me?

 

[keco52]

I really wanna say yea but I'm not that mean. My ipod died not too long ago 2. I didn't take care of it and left it in my car when it was cold and hot. Had to buy 2 new ones.

 

[Bachaveli]

It's been more than 24 hours charging my iPod and still not working.
I have been charging for three straight days.

I will either put it in microwave or wait about 14+ days and see what happens.

 

[masta247]

thats because iopods suck :horny:

 

[Bachaveli]

I know that now.

Did you try reading the owners manual?
Did you try typing "reset ipod" on google?

PS. You shouldn't leave your device connected to the charger for that long. It could fuck up your battery.

I was just thinking the other day while reading through some online consumer reviews on various products. One consumer review for a cordless phone mentioned problems with the keypads and the guy just shitted on the rating. Well, I went and got the phone anyway, and nothing was wrong with the keypads. Could it be that the guy was just a dumbass?

Yea I've tried reseting and does not work.

Who should I bring this to is what I'm thinking now. Who specializes in fixing devices like this?

You need to reflash the ipod with the firmware, this happened on my ipod video.

I tried that site as well and still did not work.

I looked over the repair and price is like $129 plus $59 for batteries. This is because I don't have the warranty. But theres no way I'm spending this much money for this. So I'll just throw this device into garbage.

put it in the microwave for shits n giggles first tho.

before and after photo's would be nice too
