1. Mute Switch:
- Ensure the mute switch on the side of the iPod is not turned on. Slide the switch to the unlocked position to enable sound.
2. Volume Settings:
- Verify that the volume settings on the iPod itself are not set to zero or too low.
- Additionally, check the volume settings within the specific music video player or app you are using.
3. Headphone/Speaker Connection:
- Make sure the headphones or external speakers are properly plugged into the headphone jack or audio output port of the iPod.
- Ensure that the headphone jack or audio output port is clean and free from any debris or dust that may interfere with the connection.
4. Bluetooth Connection:
