iPod Nano 4th generation - battery problem

Hello

I have an iPod Nano 4th generation and I love it. But recently, I see that the backup battery is very poor (difficult to get 2-3 hours of continuous music playing). I went to the service center, but unfortunately, they say that there is no possibility to replace the battery or iPod, even if I'm ready for the paid service, because the warranty is void

The only option left for me is to use it until it works (until the battery is completely dead) and then throw it away. Y at - it any other option left, I'm not aware of.

Kind regards

If you do a search on the Internet for the independent repair companies in your area, you can find one knowing well Apple that will make the replacement of the battery.  In this case, the technician didn't need to be "certified" officially by Apple because it is not a warranty repair.  Technology needs of having an experience.

You can do it yourself, if you are technically inclined.  This web site has repair guides

and third spare batteries are available on eBay and other online sellers.

  • Bad restore iPod Nano 4th generation

    This morning, I tried to restore my iPod Nano 4th generation.

    Everything seemed to go in the right direction: I followed the procedure, iTunes has downloaded the most recent software, but after a few seconds an error occurred (order of 1400, in fact I don't remember the exact number).

    From that moment, iTunes no longer see my iPod, and it is present only as a generic drive in the office.

  • IPod Nano 4th generation forced to put in the form

    Hello

    Whenever I connect my Ipod to PC with Windows 10 mu, the system indicates that the device needs to be formatted, and iTunes says also that the device is damaged then suggest to restore, I apply the restore from iTunes, but after she finishes at the suggestion of restoration appears again. I tried to format the device, but no matter who after that iTunes performs restoration that Windows still says that the device needs to be formatted and iTunes claims again for a restore, Yes... the loop.

    The weird this part is I plugged my iPod to a laptop, where I also iTunes and songs and the only thing that's happened is that iTunes has asked for a restoration which was completed successfully, actually now my iPod have a few songs on it and plays without problem, but when I connect it again to my main computer always ask me to format the device and restore it.

    I thought my iPod was dead, but as you can see that the device is recognized in my laptop, so I need to know what to do for my PC does not format my iPod. Also I updated iTunes to 12.4 without results.

    Best regards

  • generation iPod Nano 7 jumping battery percentage

    Hello.

    I recently got an opportunity 7th generation iPod Nano and the battery percentage jumps around. I use it and it seems that it is half-percent or less then I turn off the screen and turn the screen turn it on again to change the song and it will pop up to like more than half. Is this normal or a kind of glitch that I should take to the Genius Bar? Does that mean I have a bad battery? Thank you.

    Try to let the game iPod continuously, until it is unloaded.  You can let them play unsupervised until he stops playing alone.  Then, connect it to the power for a few hours, so that it is completely recharged.  See if that makes the battery to act more reliably.  It is good sometimes to drain the battery completely and then load it completely.

  • Problem of gyroscope with iPhone/iPod Touch 4th generation with iOS 6

    We have built an application using AIR SDK 3.4 and are faced with questions only with this device configuration - iPhone/iPod Touch 4th generation with iOS 6

    Anyone has had similar problems. For the Gyroscope data, we use this native extension - http://www.ketzler.de/2011/11/adobe-air-gyroscope-native-extension-with-euler-angles-roll-pitch-lacet-pour-ios /

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Yes, the problem is that the Gyroscope consumes lots of CPU, if the update interval is set to a low value.

    We managed to solve this problem recently by using the extension of Gyroscope by Distriqt - http://distriqt.com/native-extensions#gyroscope and by setting the interval to update to SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL (http://extensions.distriqt.com/docs/gyroscope/docs/com/distriqt/extension/gyroscope/Gyrosc ope.html #SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL).

  • My iPod nano 2nd generation gets disk errors after installing iTunes?

    I use my iPod nano 2nd generation for... Wow little almost 10 years now and of course is not as sensitive, a little laggy sometimes, battery life isn't as good but still never had real problems with it that can be repaired by a reset. Well not until now and I have not really money to spend to get a new, in particular the fact that practically it still works fine on his own, just that I can not add or remove pieces of her more.

    The problem

    It seems that the computer has trouble reading the device. Whenever I plug my iPod nano 2nd generation USB in my laptop (Windows 10), which has some sort of interaction with it freezes. For the moment I plug in, programs such as Winamp, iTunes, File Explorer (if I click my computer-> try to right click on the drive, that says all F: drive instead of the usual name recognized as "My iPod."), the Device Manager when I try to turn Apple iPod USB Driver and the small icon in the system tray when you try to eject the drop-down list no longer appears, all these programs themselves just freeze and unresponsive until I unplug the device. In Event Viewer, the moment where I plug it, it gets spammed by looping errors to:

    Error: The device, \Device\Harddisk1\DR21, has a bad block.

    ATTENTION: An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk1\DR21 during a paging operation.

    So, basically, it seems that the computer is blocked just not try to read and recognize the device, which means that I can't really do anything with it. The iPod itself seems to work fine, I can hear songs, recharge the battery and other things, earlier I can't add or remove pieces of her.

    Stuff leading up to it

    A year or two before, I used to manage the ipod via itunes (a relatively old version of time too I guess since I almost never update) until I formatted my laptop some time ago and never bored computer reinstall itunes. Since then, I really didn't need to change anything to my iPod and just use Winamp (my default music player) to the add/remove songs when I needed to. Today, I decided to install iTunes because there are some things that winamp cannot do as add embedded lyrics and also winamp blurs the sorted list of the song. Since then, after you have installed the new iTunes, start freezing and program I get the problems described above. There might be a chance that iTunes was not the real culprit and the disc was already beginning to get corrupted or something somehow, but I can't think of anything that's happened before this problem started.

    I tried many things

    • Uninstalled iTunes and all the other stuff related to the installation as pie, Apple Mobile Device Support... .etc
    • Reinstall the device driver USB Apple iPod. When I turn it off (Plug in iPod-> iPod poster 'do not disconnect'-->--> Device Manager driver right click-> disable-> Device Manager freezes up-> unplug ipod-> Device Manager-> thaws plug ipod in) ipod becomes simply the State of charge. Steps to reinstall is the same (need to plug and unplug).
    • Reset iPod in now the Center button + menu button.
    • Will then resetting operation rewind + Centre button iPod diagnostic mode. It is not a test disc hard because I guess nano doesn't have a disc hard just flash ram. Anyway, when I select SDRAM QScan he only says: "SDRAM OK." NAND_SPEC gives "NandLBA = 1982464". Flash gives Checksum "Checksum is 0x26AF".
    • Wanted to try as described here to check for disk errors, but cannot because the computer cannot correctly recognize and explore freezes if I right click. I tried using 'chkdsk f:' in the command prompt, but that seems to hang as well.
    • Switches mode disc reset ipod then now Center + play button. Then connect the laptop... etc, same problem.

    It's a pretty old device, so it seems that support because it is very rare. I didn't install iTunes could screw up the device that it is intended to support and do anything as permanent as this one.

    You must exclude a faulty USB, cable anchorage, try another, or using your power with another Apple device cable, to confirm that it works correctly.

    Otherwise, your troubleshooting seems complete.  If that's what you've done for disc Mode

    How to put your iPod in disc - Apple Support mode

    and connection to your computer causes this issue General 'freeze' with multiple processes, the iPod has possibly a hardware problem.  Flash storage eventually.  Or it can be a problem on the logic board of the iPod.

    I suggest try to reformat the iPod using Windows, as if it were a USB flash drive.  But you can only do if the system hangs when you connect iPod.

    NOTE: If you find a way to reformat iPod using Windows, use FAT32 as the disc format.  If there is an option to do a quick format, do a full format instead.  Once the process is complete, the iPod is totally blank.  You do restore using iTunes (if you are prompted or not), to the embedded iPod software.

    I'm sorry that I can't answer in Spanish.  I used Google Translate.

    Lithium batteries can become unable to hold a charge, if left in a State completely drained for a long period.  Given that the iPod was never opened and charged, which could be the reason that the battery of the iPod does not hold a charge now.

    Apple can no longer service the 5th generation iPod nano, but if you do a search on the Internet, there may be electronics independent repair companies in your area familiar with Apple.  The drum part is available online.  This web site illustrates the procedure

  • iPod Nano 6th generation of devices

    I have an iPod Nano 6th generation. I would like to continue to use it to play music during the night while I SLEEP. I got an iHome unit, but who has just died. I have two conditions for a new device. The device must plug into a wall outlet and charge the iPod Nano.

    Can someone suggest a new device?

    There are two separate functions here.  Charging the iPod and speakers are active.  The iPod has two connectors for audio output and power, so do not force yourself to a single device.

    Use a common USB adapter, (that plugs into the wall), as the type that comes with the iPhone or other device and standard USB cable to charge the battery of the iPod.  Connect common self-powered speakers, as the type that people use computers, making headphone iPod.  That is how I use my iPod touch on the bedside table.

  • When you try to restore my iPod nano 7th generation what it asks for a password how to find / get around it?

    MY 7th generation nano has his music to wipe and start again.  I tried to restore it in the air several times because it won't let me not in reason to ask for a password to allow this. the password is not my iTunes password. can anyone help? I use an iMac.

    Once the iPod appears in iTunes, it shouldn't be a problem with a password for an iPod nano 7th generation.  If you see a window pop up asking for a password, I think that it is a request for authorization from the Mac OS.  It is not directly related to the iPod or iTunes.  He asks your password for the account of the user admin (for Mac), as when you install the new software.
