Why does my iPod 4th generation die in less than 5 minutes?
My iPod 4th generation dies in less than 5 minutes it's now been more than a year since I have had it, what should I do???
iPod touch (4th generation), iOS 6.0.1
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.
A third-party place like the following will replace the batter for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the battery yourself. Yoo can purchase a battery for about $10
