Griffin iClear iPod Touch Case

Griffin iClear iPod touch case is a plastic hard cover case. As the name suggest, this iPod Touch case is made up of a clear plastic two-piece hard shell. It covers virtually every part of the iPod Touch’s body, except for the Sleep/Wake button, Home button, and bottom surface, giving it a full and solid protection. Griffin iClear iPod Touch case also comes with a screen protective film and a cleaning cloth.

The iClear iPod Touch case is designed to give easy access to the touch screen, dock connector, headphone port and hold switch. It can be connected to any Universal iPod Dock without being removed from the enclosure. However, it's not easy to be removed once you have it on. It takes some skill to remove the iClear iPod Touch case.. This video show you how to remove iClear case:



Customer Reviews (from Amazon):
"I have search for all over the place to find right case. even Apple store doesn't have one. then I went to bestbuy. they had Griffin clear case at time of purchase. I just love that. it shows clear appearance of touch, and protect entire ipod touch as well. it looks beautiful on my hand. it comes with screen protector film which prevents smudge, scratches on the screen. only downside is that it is not coming with belt clip. but overall I just love it so much. if somebody look for right case, it's definitely answer."
By Taeguen Yoo (St. Louis, MO, USA)

"This is a great case. It snaps in tightly and is easy to remove as well. It comes with a screen protector which is very easy to put on. I love how it fits perfectly to the shape of the Ipod Touch. Some cases when you put it on will mask the appearance of your ipod but this does not. While providing good protection for your Touch, it does not hide the appearance of your touch."
By NegativeX (Brooklyn, NY)

"Great case, would be five except because of the hardest part, applying the static screen. No real instructions included. Of course, I messed up the first time and gave up, but read somewhere else to use scotch tape to clean the screen. So trying again, I got it. Don't try to make it perfect, so long as the screen inside the actual case is bubble and lint free. My problem in the first application was trying to make the screen perfect all the way from the top edge down to the bottom. On the second try, I got it just about perfect except tiny parts of the edges, which you can't really see through the case unless you look for it. Finally, there was one spot with a tiny piece of lint in the left corner where the screen is, but unless you look and twist it under a direct light, you won't see it, unless you keep looking for it. In a little while, I will clean and re-apply again."
By DJ Kay (Chicago, IL)

Overall, iClear is a great iPod Touch case. The neutral combination of a clear front shell and frosted rear back shell that lets you see the iPod touch inside makes it a really nice looking case. Furthermore, with the good quality of impact-resistant hard shells, and a great value at $20, iClear iPod Touch case is definitely a A-class case that is highly recommended.

Howto replace install iPod Nano battery yourself

How to replace your iPod Nano battery yourself.
ipod battery replacement how to install and replace ipod battery for ipod nano. step by step guide to change or removal of battery to solve battery problems. proceduce for battery replace is simmilary for diffrent type of ipod like ipod mini ,name or shuffle 2.
Requirement for battery replacement:
2 nylon tools. Never use metal tools they will damage your ipod case. Before doing this first read this post carefully and study the photos and then start opening ipod when you have enough confidence.

1. first power off your iPod
2. Hold the iPod flat, with its face up, and insert the blade of the round-handled tool (green tool as shown in the figure)between the metal back and the acrylic lip of the iPod, a few centimeters from the top right side of the iPod, this will create space to insert another tool
3. now Insert the other tool and rotate it as inserted round the edge of the iPod so this will separate metal back and upper body. NOTE: iPod may not separate easily. Keep trying
4. flip the iPod over so the metal back is face up. 5. remove the back cover. 6. Now battery is connected by 3 wire which are soldered to the ipod. Cut the wires(by knife or scissors) connecting the old battery to the iPod. Make the cut closer to the battery. 7. and remove the old battery
NOTE: now you need to connect new battery with ipod. That means you need to connect three wires (most probably color of white, orange and black color wire) of new battery with three wire to ipod. You need to strip off the wire use stripper and be careful do not cut the cable. For newbie – you strip some wire and twist them together. I feel that for most people, the stripping-and-twisting method is less risky than using a soldering iron. While twisting the cable just match the same colour of cable and twist them. Put a bit of ordinary scotch tape around each pair as shown in the picture. Also make sure all exposed wire is covered with scotch tape. While other way of connecting three cable is soldering. If you have the right tools and is comfortable soldering very small electronic parts. You can try soldering.

11. Lay the wires flat on the main board, make sure none exposed parts of the wires are not touching the main board. 12. Align hold switch of the ipod with the case, then snap the iPod together.

This help to solve your problem for how to import export music from itune / computer to an ipod or how do you download transfer music to an ipod. But if you want to transfer music from ipod to computer. Here is the way how to Transfer Music from Ipod to Computer.

Most common problem for new ipod user is how to put music onto ipod. So I created this ipod tips to solve this problem. Windows media player is not able to upload songs to ipod. You must use Apple iTunes to get music onto your iPod. Windows Media Player can see the iPod as a hard disk. But not able to copy upload music from pc to ipod.

The steps to put music onto an Apple iPod with itune.
When you plug ipod to your pc first time through USB, you might get this pop up message. If you have already installed itune than go to step 1 down this page.


You need to restart your computer to install ipod and then the next time you start up, your iPod will not generate any messages of this nature.
You need to install itune on your computer if you have not installed itune. You can simply go to apple.com/itunes to download the latest version. It also comes with ipod CD.
The next step is to launch the iTunes program. And it will recognize the ipod that you have plugged in
It shows one message to give name to ipod, You can stick with the default name for your device or give name to ipod.
I also uncheck "automatically update music" because I like to control what happens to my iPod manually.
When you're done with this configuration step, click "Next" :
register your iPod, or just click "Finish".
Step 1
Now, finally, you can see iTunes and also your ipod inside your itune:
Click on whatever name you've given to your own iPod, and you'll see your music list, which is completely blank:



Now click on the "Library" link on the left column and you'll see what albums or music you’ve copied into your iTunes library. Or click on the "Browse" button on the top right (it looks like an all-seeing eye) and a new panel will show up with lists of songs, artists and albums.

Now select the song you want to put on to your ipod. then dragging and dropping that onto the name of the iPod on the left side panel of your itune. Now your song are copied to ipod.

Widespread iPhone, iPod touch 1.1.3 update problems

Since last week’s release of new 1.1.3 software for the iPhone and iPod touch, a number of users have experienced serious problems when trying to update the devices.

In some cases, the update appears to have been completed successfully, but renders the devices inoperable, leaving them stuck in recovery mode. When an attempt is made to restore the devices, one of several dialog boxes (pictured above) pops up and says the device can not be restored due to an unknown error.

In addition to user-submitted complaints and questions, many reports of similar problems and errors have appeared on Apple Support’s discussion boards. Some users have been able to recover the iPods or iPhones after deleting and re-installing iTunes or past software update files, but other users have tried these methods without success, finding no alternative but to return the non-functioning units to Apple.

Many of the messages are more frantic than this one, left by SinclairZX81: “My iPhone is now permanently stuck in ‘recovery mode.’ Restore fails with unknown error (9). Help.”

iPod Touch has a chance to become the first mainstream mobile Wi-Fi platform

During Apple's conference call yesterday, Apple executives described the iPod touch as a potentially the "first mainstream Wi-Fi mobile platform, running all kinds of mobile applications".

Apple's first quarter hit on all cylinders, as the company continued its financial run on the strength of its Mac business.

Mac sales were up 44 percent compared with last year. But the Apple's iPod sales of 22.1 million iPods was well below Wall Street expectations of 24.7 million. That's just 5 percent unit growth compared with last year, but iPod revenue was up 17 percent, so perhaps Apple sold more high-end iPod Touches than iPod Nanos or Shuffles as a percentage of its mix during the quarter.

Apple gained iPod share internationally, but iPod units sales in the U.S. were flat, said Tim Cook, Apple's chief operating officer.

While not specifically addressing the missed Wall Street target for iPod unit sales, Cook did say that iPod unit sales met the company's own expectations. And the iPod Touch is off to a good start, he said, which accounted for overall iPod revenue growth that matched last year's first-quarter revenue growth.

"This was the most expensive iPod we've introduced in some time," said Peter Oppenheimer, Apple's CFO. The company thinks the iPod Touch really belongs in a different category than the broader music player market, saying the iPod Touch has a chance to "become the first mainstream mobile Wi-Fi platform." Nintendo and Sony might have minor quibbles with that statement, but Oppenheimer's point was that you can't necessarily use years of iPod sales to chart the progress of the iPod Touch.

Many Ipod Touch 1.1.3 Firmware Owners are disapointed.

Looking at some 30 comments since yesterday on Ready For Ipod Touch 1.1.3 Firmware Many ipod touch owners are disappointed because Apple is charging $20 for additional applications. I think we all should wait for Developers other then Apple to start coding applications for free.

I have been Open Source Developer for few years now, and there is nothing better then receiving nice Thank You letter or small donations from people that support you and your Programs/Applications/Webdesigns etc.

Jailbreak as we all know was not out the same date as firmware 1.1.1 or 1.1.2, it was always released 2-3 weeks later. Therefore I think there are some experts that will start creating applications for Ipod Touch/Iphone just like for Blackberry or HCT phones for free.

Since I get about 10-15 email updates per day from good ipod touch sources, even from Apple iPhone developers, I will give my best to provide you (How To, Where To) links to get Ipod Touch Applications for Free(Open Source) without Jailbreak your Ipod Touch.

SwitchEasy Capsule Touch

SwitchEasy Capsule Touch is an iPod Touch case that is made primarily from hard plastic. It is available in 5 colors: white, crystal, orange, pink, and the Ultrablack limited edition. Each case comes with one screen protector that extends its base color to the black portions at the top and bottom of the iPod touch’s screen, as well as a second neutral black and clear one. The Capsule Touch Ultrablack edition is the coolest iPod Touch case among them, which also includes a third screen protector that makes it looks even darker, and stealthier.

In terms of usability, the SwitchEasy Capsule Touch is working extremely well: the dock connecting cables, universal docks, and oversized headphone plugs will have no problem working with the design. And different from other iPod Touch case, the hard screen protector of Capsule Touch covers the home button and prevent dust and grime from sneaking in. With the TactileTouch system, your home button feels even better as if the membrane is not there. In addition, the Capsule Touch also comes with a versatile video stand that wnable you to watch video on your iPod Touch without holding it with your hands.

The only drawback of this iPod Touch case is the face protector. It doesn't stick completely to the iPod Touch screen, which makes the touch on the screen less precise. However, the dimming back protector that comes with the Ultrablack edition does not have this flaw. It looks and fits better with the touch screen.

Tunewear PRIE Ambassador SideHook iPod Touch Case

Tunewear has introduced its Prie Ambassador SideHook iPod touch case, a new leather case with an integrated hook that doubles as a stand for watching video.

PRIE Ambassador SideHook case is as innovative as the iPod touch it was designed for. For starters, we moved the hook to the side into just the right place to double as a stand for watching video. The hook can also be used to attach iPod touch to a belt loop or bag, or can be removed entirely. Next, we added a convenient cardholder on the back, big enough for a driver's license or commuter card.

For style, PRIE Ambassador SideHook ipod touch case is available in 5 different colors variations, including 2 versions in black leather for a classic look, or sienna, gold or silver models with contemporary styling.

All sensors and ports remain open and available on the iPod touch. To protect the screen, TUNEFILM is included free with PRIE Ambassador SideHook. TUNEFILM, a clear protective film for iPod touch, covers the Multi-touch display and mirrored back.
