Question

What can I do if I haven't charged my iPod for a month, and the home button doesn't work?

Community Answer

Plug the iPod into the charger and give it 30 to 60 minutes. If the home button still isn't working, you should take it to the Apple store for assistance. It may just need to charge for a bit before it will turn back on.

Where can I get a protector for my iPod Touch 6?

Community Answer

At any store that sells electronics, like Best Buy. It will be where the phone accessories are.

Question

What should I do if my iPod is acting really weird?

Community Answer

You have to describe what it is doing specifically for anyone to be able to help you. "Acting really weird" is too vague and could mean a lot of things.

The same way you'd fix a 5th generation. It depends on what exactly is wrong with it.

How do I fix an iPod touch that won't turn on?

Hold both the power button and home button down until the Apple logo appears. This force reboots your device and forces it to turn on.

Question

How can I fix an iPod that only shows the Apple log and then turns off again?

Community Answer

Press the power button for 3 seconds. Keep holding the power button and press the home button together, for 15 seconds. Then leave power button, but keep holding down the power button, for 20 seconds. iTunes will do the rest, and you just need to follow the instructions!
