iPod Mini problems

Apple 4 GB iPod Mini Silver M9800LL/A Last friday my ipod mini started having problems – turning itself off, for example. Today Ⅰ realized after having the ipod sit on the AC adapter for 2 days it still has no full battery – actually it was dead after about 10 songs.

Ⅰ checked google and found two good facts:

  1. The iPod is still under warranty and this includes dead batteries etc.
  2. A reset might work. Ⅰ will see tomorrow.

[update Montag, 6. Juni 2005] The hardware reset seems to have worked – battery full and functional for 2 h straight.

[update Mittwoch, 8. Juni 2005] Still annyoing. This morning the ipod showed a ⅔ full battery, after one song it complained about no power. Hardware reset → battery display was full again. 10 minutes of playback and the battery was empty, this time for good. That makes it a total of about 2 hours playback since the last recharge, no backlight enabled.

Next try: resetting the whole ipod plus firmware.

[update Donnerstag, 9. Juni 2005] This seems to have fixed all problems.

[update Friday, 10. Juni 2005] Nope, still buggy as hell. Ⅰ just ordered the little box to send it back to apple.

[update Friday June 17th] my replacement iPod just arrived. All is fine again.

    Try to do a reset, reinstall of the firmware. If that does not help – get it replaced as long as your warrantee lasts!

    Ⅰ believe you may have the alarm set on your iPod, either directly or via some sort of iCal event. Check the settings/preferences and the extra/time setting for the alarm!
