Q: I dropped my ipod touch (6th gen.) in the toilet. I was wondering,  is there any way that I can transfer all of the info of of my ipod touch to my new iphone 6plus? if so, how? ..and is it possible to do the same if the ipod isn't backed up?

(Keep in mind that I dropped it in the toilet, and it is no longer working). If I were to turn it on, it will work, but only for literally 3-4 seconds. After those short amount of seconds, the screen will be pitch black, still working. It still flashes for my notifications. Unless I mange to hold the power button long enough to power it off.

iPod touch, iOS 10.0.2, the color is gold

    No backup = no way to get data from a 'dead' device.

     

    You should probably stop trying to use the device & contact a data recovery specialist. They may be able to help if you can afford to pay. Using it whilst wet may cause more damage, a specialist may have the ability to examine & recover data. If you are very lucky it may work when dry, but that process can take many days or weeks.

     

    You should probably examine your iTunes account to see how many of your files are available as past 'purchases'. You should be able to redownload those from Apple if you brought them in iTunes, otherwise I'm afraid they are gone.

     

    Don't you have the files on PC or Mac that you synced the iPod with?
