My iPod keeps freezing and jumping to next songs.

Heres my dilema.
Whenever i play a song and after awhile the soing stops and goes to the next song and whenever I try to go back to it the iPod freezes.
Should I do the 24 hour battery drain or restore my iPod using the Updater. (have the newest version)
Can anybody help please?????

this is what happened to my ipod, it eventually stopped working altogether and im currently trying to find a way to resolve the problem. read my topic - 'out of warranty sad ipod- what can i do?;-(' is your ipod still in warranty, because if it does end up like mine apple will fix it for you. in the mean time try resetting it, then if this doesn't help then try restoring it- this will erase all your data on the ipod so back it up first. i hope this helps pranesh,
Aoife.

  • My iPod keeps freezing during the middle of songs etc.?

    My iPod keeps freezing in the middle of songs and even when i plug it into the computer to charge. I've tried to restore it but iTunes rejects it, saying that it has an error. what can I do?

    I have an Ipod touch.  Recently it has started stopping in the middle of the songs.  Sometimes it stops completely and sometimes it goes to the next song.
    All the songs is it stopping on are recent purchases from Itunes.  A couple of the songs stopped midway while playing them on Itunes.  I did unsync the new songs and then added them again.
    I tried the reset mentioned above, but it didn't help. 
    I have over 3000 songs, I'd like to avoid unsyncing and resyncing if at all possible.
    the restore to factory defaults removes all the updates, doesn't it?
    I'd appreciate any help.

  • 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.

  • IPod keeps freezing and skipping.

    I've restored it, i've reset it. nothing is helping. it freezes many times a day. so i keep reseting it and a few minutes later it freezes again. i've restored it multiple times but it keeps freezing anyway. I'm still under warranty until christmas but can i still get it replaced since it's a 30 gb? they have the iPod classic now so i don't know if i can get it replaced.

    Okay i guess not?

  • New iPod keeps freezing and restarting.

    I just bought a 60GB white g5 iPod and loaded a bunch of music onto it. Whenever I try to play a song it goes back to the apple screen and restarts. If it actually plays a song it freezes and restarts when it needs to go to the next song, if it doesn't do that it will play about three seconds of a song and go to the next one and freeze and restart pretty soon after.
    A relative of mine has another new 60GB iPod and we tried loading music on it from my computer and it works just fine so it's obviously the iPod and not my files or anything. I tried doing a complete restore on the iPod and then putting music back on it but it still has the same problem.
    Is anyone else having a problem like this? Is there anything I can do, or should I just either contact Apple about getting it fixed/replaced or return it to the store?

    did you reset your ipod with the new update, it usually solves that problem, a lot of people were having problems under the factory settings

  • My iPod keeps freezing and then turning black and finally rebooting. Help?

    over the past 2 days my iPod just stops responding to my touch or me pressing the on/off button. I'm getting really worried although it has only happened 3 times. I've had it less then a year, only since around the beginning of April. Whenever it happens, I hold the on/off button for a while but it doesn't really work. Then sometimes I try a hard reset. Any help guys? It's GREATLY appreciated   . Just wanted to quickly say that it is also an iPod 5, remanufactured

    ipod nano    

    I just bought an Ipod Nano, and the same thing is happening and I haven't even been able to listen to 1 song! The sound would not come out; and I pushed buttons, etc. and the darn thing has been frozen for the past 3 hours. I'm ready to ship it back: isn't Apple supposed to have good products??

  • I've got 2 issues. 1- song stops playing in the middle and jumps to next song 2- one song won't play at all on my auth. device and states that I need to authorize my device.

    I've already done the steps recommended... deleted file, unauthorized and reauthorized device. Only thing left to do is delete songs, but what if it happens again?

    I have a bunch of songs imported from CD that are now much shorter than the originals; hundreds of songs are cut off. A song may be 3-4 minutes long, but iTunes shows it's only 45 seconds, whether played on iPod or iTunes. The only way I can see to fix it is to re-import each CD. Unfortunately, I have about 1,000 CD's. Any suggestions?

  • When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?

    When playing songs in iTunes playlist, How do you keep the next song from jumping to next song? I am working on song list updating other tracks info and then the next song starts and I lose my spot in song list?

    Max OSX 10.6.8, iTunes 11.1
    I had a similar problem: I wanted to synch my playlist to my iphone. I like to have my playlist sorted by genre. But under each genre, albums are not sorted by the track numbers. This is a problem, especially when I am listening to club mixes when the DJ smoothly transitions from 1 track sequentially to the next one. Under the properties of each audio file, the Track Numbers and Disc Numbers are already there.
    My perfect solution was to turn On Sorting - Sort Album under View>Show View Options. Then, select all the songs in that album (Shift click, Cmd click, etc) , and Edit multiple item information (Cmd I). You will see Info-Video-Sorting-Options buttons. Click on Sorting. Then, under Sort Album, Enter the name of the album. Then OK.
    You should now have the playlist sorted by Genre, then each album individually sorted by track numbers. On your playlist you should see, if you scroll right, the column added called "Sort Album".
    Hope this helps.

    - Try a reset. Nothing is lost

    - If still problem, see it iTunes nows sees the iPod so you can restore the iPod.
    - Next see if placing the iPOd in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovry mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Last, try DFU mode and restore.
