Question about Apple iPod MA446LL/A MP3 Player
I have a 60gig IPOD video.I connect it to my car dvd system ,its a jensan player.one day the cdplayer stop recognizing the ipod,i tried another ipod on the cdplayer and it works perfectly so the ipod is the bad guy.now when i charge it the bottom right side of the ipod gets really hot.the battery barely lasts 20min, i even purchased a new battery and changed ti and same thing happens,bottom right side gets hot and it dies within 20mins. my computer recognizes the ipod with no problems but so as long as the ipod has enough power to stay on while pc installs drivers and stuff. anyone ran into this type of problem? thanks for the help
It sounds like the battery has shorted out. Ship this guy out and have his battery replaced ASAP! This is a giveaway with the heat. Please note that it is "problem solved!"

It is a circuitboard short. It needs to be repaired and/or replaced by apple. Aren't you still under warranty?
Let me know! Please change to solved or almost there, this hurts my ratings and I will continue to try and help...
Thanks!
Without an expert microcircuitry background, it isnt able to be fixed. And apple will just replace it. It may honestly just be worth it to go buy a new ipod, but you can also send it into Apple. That is more hassle but likely a bit cheaper!
Thanks! Please mark this as solved!

i have already replaced the battery but still its the same deal,even with the new battery my car cdplayer does not recognize it.it does charge it though,but it heats up then as well.
i am not under warranty anymore,how much would it cost to get it repaired? or is it possible to do on my own?
