My iPod 7th gen has no sound

Thanks been trying all the other suggestions and nothing worked then saw your post and i had to shake my head. lol Thanks for posting. have sound now 🙂

The cue tip with a little cotton removed and some rubbing alcohol is what made mine work again.

Lots of very tiny twigs in the headphone hole, iPod worked fine after removing them🙂

The iPod has no internal speakers in it!

So, that means you need to were Headphones, or EarPods. Or a cable to a speaker or a bluetooth speaker.

There is no Mute button on an iPod 7th Generation.

Check for fluff in the earphone socket. I inserted a tooth pick (non metallic) into it and voila a nice bit of fluff came out. Problem sorted.
