iPod Nano 7th Generation: 画面が映らなくなりました。音はなりますが、再起動しても画面が映りません。どうすればできますか？

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 20:06:22 -0700

ランニング後に画面を確認したら、突然画面が映らなくなりました。一応確認したんですが、バックライトの故障ではなさそうです。先ほど言った通り音はなるんですが、再起動しても何度同期しても直りません。原因がなんだか知りたいです。

店舗での修理はめんどくさいんで自分で修理する方法も教えてくださると幸いです。

ちなみに、日本仕様のやつなので、技適マークが保持されたまんま修理が行える方法が知りたいです。

また、故障の原因は、軽度の水没である可能性があります。これらの情報を配慮した上での修理方法を教えてくださると幸いです。

あ、そういえば、画面を強く押すと画面がついたりつかなっかったりします。

iPod Touch 5th Generation: iPod Touch 5 Boot Loop & Won’t Restore

Wed, 29 Jul 2026 21:10:48 -0700

I’m hoping someone has seen this before. I have an iPod touch 5th generation that I’m trying to save because it has old photos on it.

Here’s what’s happening:

If it’s unplugged, it does absolutely nothing and won’t power on.
If it’s connected to a wall charger, it immediately starts boot looping (Apple logo for about 5 seconds, black screen for about 3 seconds, then repeats indefinitely).
The moment I unplug it, it shuts off immediately.
I replaced the battery with a brand new iFixit battery, but the behavior didn’t change.
The iPod can enter Recovery Mode and DFU Mode, and my computer recognizes it.
However, when I try to Update or Restore it using Apple Devices, iTunes, or 3uTools, the instant I click Update/Restore, the iPod exits Recovery Mode, goes black, and then shows the low battery screen. It never gets to the Apple logo with the progress bar.

Has anyone experienced this before or know what hardware issue could cause these symptoms? I’m hoping to repair the iPod without losing the data if possible, so I’d like to avoid restoring it unless absolutely necessary.

Tue, 28 Jul 2026 21:32:25 -0700

My son's ipod touch developed one small grey spot that we assumed was due to pressing too hard. However over the weeks more have appeared and are blocking out parts of the screen. They are not wet spots and do not move. Ive attached a picture. How can this be resolved?

iPod Nano 3rd Generation: New battery, Nano 3 freaking out

Sat, 25 Jul 2026 00:49:07 -0700

Did a battery change recently and the iPod is reacting oddly to it.

When unplugged the battery holds charge quite well, and when plugged in it will immediately show a full battery icon with a lightning bolt inside of it. When in the diagnostics tool, the battery reads as 3.779V and the charging value as 100mA. It has undergone a factory wipe, and is detected by my PC with no issues.

I'm at my wits end here, any advice?

Yamaha CD-S300: Unsupport message on Yamaha CD-S300 CD player

Fri, 17 Jul 2026 13:53:08 -0700

My Yamaha CD-S300 CD player is showing UNSUPPORT on the display whenever I put a CD in. It seems to display LOADING for a bit longer than usual and then goes to the UNSUPPORT message and won’t play the CD. I can’t hear any noise so I’m assuming that the disc is not spinning. Switching to the USB mode and then back to the CD mode doesn’t work - it then displays NO DISC. If I then eject the disc and put it back in again I get the UNSUPPORT message again. I have tried several different discs and got the same result. In desperation I even tried turning the player off and on again! (Didn’t help.)

Sony Walkman: Wow and Flutter Issues on Walkman Cassette Player

Thu, 16 Jul 2026 00:36:26 -0700

I recently bought a Sony Walkman WMFX33 and am experiencing issues with high notes sounding wobbly (maybe also called “wow and flutter”). It does this with all tapes I play.

I opened it and checked the belt and it’s pretty tight. The person I bought it from said he changed the belts fairly recently, but I don’t know if it is the exact belt for this Walkman. I also cleaned off the capstans, pinch rollers, and playback head with 91% isopropyl alcohol and q-tips. I gave the whole device a wipe down with alcohol and q-tips. I am using the Energizer rechargeable lithium AA batteries in it, but tried it with fresh, normal AA batteries and experience the same thing.

I looked at the pinch rollers and they seem ok, but may need replacing. They are fairly matte and slightly tacky, but do look a little dry. The capstans don’t spin freely/by hand, as I saw that may be an issue if they do.

I also saw something about adjusting the azimuth screw to the left of the tape head, but I’m not sure.
