Ipod stuff?

[MarionBarberThe4th]

My ipod touch starting playing music worse and worse over time. First it would only play in one ear. Then the headphones would have to be held a certain way. Later on I had to physically hold the headphones in place and now absolutely nothing.

I opened it up, took a peak got scared and closed it back up. Now the wifi connection is horrible. Pretty much useless.


True story.

Did you at least try different headphones first?

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Yes, like 4. They all worked in other devices.

Must be a piece of crap then. I'm glad I didn't buy one. I hope it's not obvious that it has been opened, so if you take it to a store no one gives you any crap about voiding any warranty or thinking you'd caused it by opening it..

I'm a persistent jerk when it comes to stuff like this. I usually stay in a very cool tone talking about how terrible this is to have happen to something you spent so much money on. If you can get a dufasbar guy to finally go to the manager and you do it subtly enough and make enough sense to listening customers...potential buyers, then you have a good shot at Apple taking it upon themselves to fix it. Now if it's a part over 100, or something, they won't do it. I had to go to the store and then call the PR department for a week to get my logic board fixed for free by them. It takes work, but you can do it.
