    iPod touch New 6th & 7th Gen iPod Touch

    Pleasant surprise today. I took my 6th & 7th Gen iPod touch to the Apple Store to get the batteries replaced. Turns out they will exchange them for brand new iPods - for a fee. I purchased the 6th Gen model in 2015. Both still run, but the 6th Gen only holds a charge for a little over 2 hours...

    iPod Sign of expanding batteries?

    I checkout a few teardown guides of each model. The battery of the iPad touch (4th gen) locates just below where the lower volume button (roughly the second row of apps) is, it this battery or display panel related? On the iPod nano (2nd gen), the battery is underneath the display so I believe...

    iPod touch IOS 16 should support iPods

    I just bought an iPod touch 7th gen and it is good for an mp3 player and even better considering the fact that it is cheaper than most apple products. IOS 16 is coming out soon and there are many rumors that say it won't support iPod-like devices. This abolishes the hope of a good, cheap Apple...

    iPod touch iPhone + iPod Touch combo?

    Anyone here uses an iPod Touch alongside their iPhone? If so, how are your use cases with them? I know iPods are not really a thing anymore in 2020 and the tech itself is very outdated. But for me personally it has a nostalgic value to it. It was my first ever Apple device as a kid and I’ll...

    Trying to find more iPhone OS 2 Betas

    I've been trying to find many iPhone OS 2.0 betas and most of these torrents/links that have these ipsws are dead or their website is down. The only betas that are widely available are the 2.0 beta 2 for iPhone 2G and 2.0 beta 3 for the iPod touch 1. I've been making an archive of old beta IPSWs...

    Sync Music to multiple devices

    There must be an easy fix to this but I can't find it. I use iTunes to manage my music. I have it set to sync checked music only. I sync about 40gb of music with my iPhone 7, which has 128gb of storage. I've decided my iPod touch, which has sat in a drawer for five years, is a great way to...

    iPod touch Ipod display problems after replacement

    I acquired an ipod touch 4th gen for free since the guy didn't want to pay to fix it again. He had somebody replace the screen/digitizer assembly on it and while he was doing it he broke a piece of the glass off the top corner. After it was all reassembled the ipod turns on to a white screen...

    iPod touch Does anyone have this default blue wallpaper?

    It came with the 2014 blue iPod Touch (5th generation). It might have been exclusive to the blue edition. I have searched and cannot find it. Does anyone have the full size wallpaper?

    iOS Update Notification Tricks

    Noticed this after the recent iOS signing changes, as that provided an easy opportunity to see definitively what happened, and I was curious if anyone knew anything about this. I updated my 5th gen. iPod touch from 6.0.1 to 6.1.3 and (though I had to connect to Wi-Fi to set it up) immediately...
