So my iPod doesn't output any audio anymore. Whether I place it in a dock, connect it to an FM transmitter in my car, our use regular headphones, I get no sound. Even if the volume is cranked to the max on the ipod, still nothing. It still updates if I connect it to my computer, and still charges when connected to a dock or FM transmitter. If I select a song and press "play", it appears as if everything is normal, but no sound is there. I've tried restarting it and restoring it. Nothing. Any ideas?
Everything works (charging, plays music, plays videos play games,sync's and even reset it twice) but the sound, nothing comes out of the dock port or headphone jack. Volume is set to max just nothing comes out. I've try three different radio docks, five different headsets, and my computer dock and non of them get a drop of sound out of my Ipod. I've even tried squeezing the lower right corner and still nothing. Is this something that can be fix if I ship it to Apple Support? Please, help apple support!

I have read the other thread relating to this problem, if you are having the same static coming thru, and then no sound, the guy says to press the the lower right corner of the click wheel, and the sound comes back thru. I think it is a heat related issue, and like the other poster, i leave mine in the car 24/7...If apple wants more business, they need to stop messing around and stand behind their product/make better products...it's convenient for them to put that 1 year warranty out there and have their product take a crap on you after it's up. I'm going to attempt for them to service the iPood w/o charge, so wish me luck....
I have this exact same problem... the software and user interface appear to be working fine, but no audio output. Videos play successfully, but without audio. I also have tried resetting and restoring, but to no avail.
i am having the same problem. if i press on my ipod towards the right side of the wheel, i can get sound, but is very harsh, and sounds kind of like digital noise or clipping, and then it will sound like music, and then back to nothing and so on and so on. i am wondering if there maybe some sort of upgrade issue or something!?!? i looked at the dates for most of these posts and they are all from today. so magically, today all of us started having this problem? i take good care of my ipod, and can;t imagine what i might have done to harm the little thing.
ok, i have fixed the problem, at least for now. i read on one of the millions of forums about this problem, that it may be a heat sensitivity thing. so i put my ipod in the refrigerator for an hour or so, and i kid you not... it seems to be working just fine. i used to leave my ipod in the car 24/7 (i know, i know this is bad). but, after having cooled it next to a head of lettuce and a jug of milk, it seems to be fine!?!?! just thought i would share. hope it helps some of you who are having the same problem.
Add me to the list. Christmas gift 2006, black 80GB...went to Apple store and they only offered a refurbished model for $50, or 10% of new model. I'm pretty ******. A $300+ investment should last longer than 18 months. I will send my thoughts to the top. Not sure what to do.
Did yo buy the extended warranty? If so they will replace for free... ALWAYS buy the extended warranty for things like this. I always thought it was common knowledge to get the extension for new tech products.
There is no quick fix, I had the same problem, so I bought a new headphone jack hold shiwch part, and pluged it into the mainboard myself, two days later the same problem occored, holding parts of my ipod down works for a while, but really I just need a new music player
I've had my ipod replaced 2 times now, no questions asked, no hassle. Of course I take very good care of my ipod. No dents, no scratches, thick rubber case...the apple care plan is perfect for manufacture defects.
