The iPod touch unlocks. Press the "Home" button or press the "Sleep/Wake" switch when you have enabled passcode protection on your iPod, then swipe a finger across the "Slide to Unlock" slider on the screen. The "Enter a Passcode" message appears. Type in your passcode, and then tap "OK." The iPod touch unlocks. Forgot Your Password b> Connect the iPod Touch to your computer using the USB cable.

How to change your iPod touch and iPhone battery

Batteries for the iPod touch, iPhone, and much more can be purchased from http://www.milliamp.com

Using a thin, but sturdy guitar pick, carefully separate the backing of the iPod from the screen. This may be tough to do because the chrome backing snaps to the touch screen assembly, and care must be taken to prevent cracking the screen.

Once the chrome backing is separated from the iPod, the battery is now exposed.

If the battery has never been changed, it will more than likely be glued in place, and must be carefully removed with the guitar pick as well.

The wires must be soldered and taped with electrical tape, or carefully protected with heat shrink tubing. There is not much clearance available inside the iPod, so keep this in mind when finishing up with the wiring and protecting the wires from shorting.

Carefully put the new battery in the old batteries spot, and snap the chrome backing back together with the front screen.

Charge the iPod for at least 10 minutes before attempting to turn it on, but keep it on the charger until it is fully charged for best results.

Screen only shows white and we can't figure out how to change this.

Try to reset it. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until either the Apple logo or battery symbol appears. If the battery symbol appears, continue to charge iPod touch until it is fully charged.

If this doesn't work, try restoring the iPod from withinn itunes.

My son's 16gb ipod touch went through the washer. It seems to be dried out and we re-loaded everything from itunes but it doesn't power up unless the power cord is plugged in. Could it be the battery??

Hi,
Seems to be a generic issue here, the probable reasons why the ipod aint playing are: 1) the battery must have been discharged 2)battery destructed due to short-circuit
Possible solution: 1) Allow the ipod to get charged for about 3 hours, then try playing 2) If 1 does'nt work try changing the battery from apple store Hope this helps

My Jensen ipod docking system wont charge my i touch

The older ipods charge using 12v, the newer ones (including the Touch 2nd gen) use 5v. So a lot of docks that will charge a nano will not charge a new Touch. If a dock says it will work with the iPhone then it will work with the newer iPod Touch (2nd gen).
If you have an old dock and want to charge a new Touch (sounds like the case here) then you can get an adapter. Scosche makes one just for this.
