Q: Hi I have a iPod touch 4th generation that needs the charging port replaced, the pins are damaged and may also need a new battery as well. How much would that be? I’m looking to to pull photos off of it, I don’t need the ipod if I can just get the pictures. Thanks

The good news is that charging port and battery repairs don't erase anything. Once the iPod Touch 4th Gen powers on again, your photos should still be there. On this model the charging port is the old 30-pin dock connector. When its pins are bent or damaged, the iPod can't charge or connect to a computer, and that also lets the battery run completely flat. So the port might be the only problem, or the battery might be worn out as well. We'll test both. Because you mostly care about the photos, put that in your order notes. Once the iPod is working, you can import the pictures to a computer the usual way. If you know the passcode, write it down, since you'll need it to get to the photos. Order the free iPod Touch 4th Gen diagnostic on this page. We'll test it and quote the charging port and the battery before doing any work. If you decide not to go ahead, you only pay return shipping.
