60gb ipod photo keeps freezing and skipping through songs

I've had my 60gb ipod photo for almost a year and it keeps freezing and skipping through songs and sometimes it won't respond to a reset. I have to let the battery run down in order to use it again. I have restored it several times and it seems to keep happenning at least once a week.I have the latest software for it. Is there any thing else I can do?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync what you  want
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:

  • Why does my ipod keep freezing and skipping songs?

    I have the 80GB Ipod Classic, and for some reason it keeps skipping songs, for instance, whenever I go to look under a certain artist or a playlist of even just under "songs" I'll pick one and then it will skip one or two or ten, and there are some songs it just doesn't allow me to listen to anymore. Only on my ipod though, not on itunes. It also keeps freezing and will sometimes just stop in the middle of a song and skip to a new one. I've tried resetting it, and leaving it alone for a few days and letting it charge and leaving it off. Nothing seems to work.
    What can I do?

    I had this problem with my old 20GB classic ipod, it all started when I began using my ipod for my running trainings, every day it used to get worse freezing every 10 minutos or so, then I got ****** and bought a new 80GB classic Ipod, I have it for about 3 weeks now and guess what? It started freezing or skiping songs also. I did a test where I synced the same library on my both ipod and the songs being skipped on my new one wasnt being skipped on the old one, so its a problem with the song, then I though it could be any damage in the ipod HD but my new ipod has no reason to be damaged, the only impact that it might have recived is from my running trainings, but the impacts are really weak. Other test I did was trying to remove the song being skiped from the ipod, everytime I did that my ipod couldnt be ejcted, it kept showing me the following message "The ipod canot be ejcted because it contains files that are used by another aplication." I had to unplug my ipod without ejecting it.

  • Crunching noise and skipping through songs rapidly

    My Mini started by making this crunching noise from the drive spinning and then the display showed it skipping through songs rapidly. I reset it twice and now when I turn it on it says "go to www.apple.com/support/ipod. I have looked everywhere on this site and can not find anything that addresses this issue. Was wondering if anyone has had this problem and if so did you send it in and what was the repair cost?

    You've got a one year warranty from Apple. You don't mention how long you've had it . . . but if it's within the year, you shouldn't be charged. If there's any charge, it will be just for shipping.
    The 'crunching' noise coming from the drive spinning is a BAD sign, and I feel certain your iPod needs Apple's assistance.
    I think the address it's sending you to is so you can get a return slip to send it back.
    Good luck!

  • My ipod touch keeps freezing and doesnt want to turn on anymore.

    i have a 32gb 4th generation ipod touch, it stopped working properly like 2 weeks ago. It stopped functioning right when the home button didnt go as smooth. I had to press it really hard to go from one app to the home screen. if i pressed it twice to change music, it would turn negative color. i turned that off but the button kept acting the same. it is fustrating. ive tried turning it off then back on but it doesnt change and today while in an app it froze completely.  i held the power and home button to reset it, although it was hard, it turned off. while trying to turn it back on, it froze on the black screen with the apple in the middle. is there anyway i can fix it or what can i do?
    i need help its very fustrating and it keeps turning on and off by itself on the black screen with the apple for over 10 minutes.
    ive only had it for 5 months. please help!

    This also happened to me when I did the jailbreak and restored, he caught the apple in the middle of the screen and spent four monthswithout knowing what to do, I called support and found it was onlyTIGHTEN THE BUTTON UP, HOLD AND PRESS THE BUTTONAND HOME HOLD BOTH, then the image will appear to connectthe pc, when you will connect to iTunes and a message that youriPod disendo is in recovery mode, then just restore it and hope itreturns to normal. Hope this helps everyone.
    Ps: I do not speak English and I'm translating this message forgoogle, so sorry for the mistakes grammarians.

  • IPod Classic keeps freezing...what do I do?

    My iPod Classic keeps freezing. It still plays music, but then the screen freezes and won't let me command the device until the backlight switches off. I noticed it's got a bit worse since I bought 'Bush' iPod speakers to play my music out loud through my iPod. What do I do? It's getting annoying.

    Hi Candyfornia,
    I think you must restore your iPod (with iTunes) to solve your problem...

  • My 7th generation 160 g iPod classic keeps freezing, I've only had it for 3 months?

    This iPod was ordered brand new 3 months ago, however it keeps freezing and locking up when I try to scroll through menus or switch songs. I would really like this problem to be fixed. How do I go about this?

    Try the Hard Reset
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

    Do  the iPod Disk Diagnostic as posted by tt2,

    If you have high numbers on the first 5 items, better bring back to Apple Store for a replacement.
    Good Luck!

  • 60Gb iPod Photo with Olympus 8080

    Gearing up to buy a 60Gb iPod Photo and wonder what I will need to dock it with my Olympus 8080 and download photos from the Compact Flash card into the iPod Photo. Can someone point me in the right direction as to the options to achieve this.
    Thanks a bunch in advance.

    Just to report back in order to hopefully help others with the same query. I purchased an iPod Camera Connector (M9861G/A) and can now import pics from the 8080 through the adapter and USB cable that came with the camera directly to iPod. It works a treat...........

  • Why does my iPod touch keep freezing when I attempt to turn off iCloud Keychain in the settings?

    Everytime I try to turn off iCloud Keychain, my iPod's
    Screen freezes and automatically turns iCloud Keychain back on. I really don't want ICloud Keychain and it has been a while since I tried to turn it off.

  • Apple TV keeps freezing  and snow picture

    Guys
    Again I need your help.
    My AppleTV keeps freezing and have white dots while displaying menu and playing the content.
    When I try to restart it it shows the Apple logo and freezes while the dots keep appearing and flashing (think Matrix movie). It doesn't make any sound. I have unplugged the cable/ restart it (took ages), changed HDMI cable.
    Nothing. My TV is new and never had that problem before, it happened after last upgrade.
    Any Ideas

    I am also having this same issue. I tried both HDMI and Component connected directly to my TV. Cables are known good with my Bluray player.
    I did a factory restore and it got to 1.0 software. I still had the snow effect and also freezing on the bootup movie. After a few attempts I was finally able to get through to the menu and upgrade the software the latest release, and it still had the snow effect on either HDMI or Component. It also froze in the menu system.
    From that troubleshooting, I think it is hardware issue. I have left the apple TV unplugged since last night. when I get back home for the evening, I will check again and see if the long time of being unplugged will fix it. If not, time to take it to the Apple Store.
    Had it for a little more then a year and it is already broken. Poor Poor quality, but that is what I get for getting the first gen.

  • I updated to IOS 7 on my Ipad 2 and now videos will not play, they freeze and skip and will not play.

    I updated to IOS 7 on my Ipad 2 and now videos will not play, they freeze and skip and will not play.  Can anyone help?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
