4GB Nano- freezes when put on hold, even after its taken off of hold..also-

I always put my ipod on hold, for certain reasons, such as when i put it in my pocket, purse, etc. Well recently, i would put it on hold, and when i take it off hold, it STAYS on hold. I didn't really understand why, so i tried pressing the buttons on the click wheel to reset it, but then it still wouldn't do anything (the music still playing). finally about 5 minutes later, it will go off of hold and seem to work perfectly fine until i put it on hold again. i tried connecting it via usb port on the computer, and then taking it off and putting it on hold again, but it still stays on hold. i also tried connected it via the wall charger, but the same problem persists. Also, what really freaked me out was that i turned it off after this little problem, and it wouldn't turn on. I know how sometimes if it doesn't turn on right away just to hold the menu button or something, but this time it just wouldn't turn on at all. Eventually, about 5 minutes later, it turned on. I've had my ipod since March '05, and until now, there has been no problems whatsoever, in fact, i very much enjoy my ipod. so i was just wondering if there is something more i could do, or do i need to get a replacement, mind you, im still under warranty.

Have you tried restoring your iPod to see if that helps? Since you have had it since March 05 and it is still under warranty (I assume until March of this year) you may want to go ahead and put in a service request just to be on the safe side.

  • ITunes freezes when connecting iPod Touch - even after restored

    Hi,
    I have an iPod Touch 32GB 4th generation, I have never had any problems with it until now.
    Today I tried to connect it to my iTunes (on my MacBook Pro - late 2011 model) in order to sync it so that I could transfer some of my new music and iTunes would freeze. The mouse would pinwheel and I would have to force quit (it would not respond for over 30mins if left unattended). I created a new admin user and the itunes on the other user recognised the iPod just fine. I used the other user to restore my iPod in the hopes that when connected to my library again, it would be a 'new' ipod and so it would no longer freeze. Unfortunately this was not the case, despite my library recognising an ipod in recovery mode and being able to restore it (so that I can now at least use it in its most basic form). It has subsequently frozen each time I connect my iPod. How can I fix this? Should I just wait for the next iTunes upgrade?
    Thank you
    Frances

    Hi Frances,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    The sugestions in the article below should help. They will resolve most issues that cause iTunes to stop responding when an iOS device is connected to the computer.
    iTunes: May become unresponsive when connecting iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3219
    Symptoms
    In rare instances, iTunes may become unresponsive when connecting an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to your computer. iTunes may become responsive again after you disconnect the device from the computer.
    Resolution
    Expand All Sections | Collapse All Sections
    Follow the steps below to troubleshoot the issue:
    Install any available software updates for your computer.
    For Mac OS X: Click the Apple () menu, choose Software Update, and follow the on-screen instructions.
    For Windows: Refer to the documentation for your computer for instructions on using Windows Update to update your computer.
    Update iTunes to the latest version.
    For Mac OS X: Click the Apple () menu, choose Software Update, and follow the on-screen instructions. You can also download iTunes from the Apple website.
    For Windows: Use Apple Software Update, or download iTunes from the Apple website.
    Test with automatic syncing disabled.Reconnect your device and test to see if the issue still occurs. If your device is recognized successfully, you may be able to isolate which type of data is causing the issue. Do this by deselecting all syncing options under each of the syncing tabs and then sync. After that, re-enable your sync options one at a time until the issue returns.
    Note: If the issue only occurs when syncing data from the Info tab is enabled (For example: Contact, Calendar, Mail account or Bookmark syncing), reset the Sync History (for Mac OS X instructions see this article, for Windows see this article).
    For Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences. Click the Devices tab and place a check next to option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically." Click OK.
    For Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences. Click the Devices tab and place a check next to option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically." Click OK.
    Check your device for podcasts. If there are any podcasts, manually delete all podcast episodes from the device by sliding your finger across the podcast episode's name and tapping Delete. Once all podcasts are removed from your device, reconnect it to the computer, open iTunes, and test.
    If possible, test to see if connecting your device to a different computer with the latest version of iTunes installed resolves the issue.
    Test with iTunes plug-ins removed.
    Quit iTunes.
    Navigate to the following folder, based on your operating system:
    Windows XP:  C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes Plug-ins
    Windows Vista or Windows 7:  C:\Users\[username]\App Data\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes Plug-ins
    Mac OS X:
    ~/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins   (The "~" represents your Home folder)
    /Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins
    If any files are in this folder, move them to the Desktop temporarily.
    Open iTunes and test to see if the issue is resolved. If so, you may leave these iTunes plug-ins removed. If you wish to re-use these iTunes plug-ins, consult the vendor for the iTunes plug-ins to see if any updates are available.
    If the issue also occurs on a different computer:
    If the issue does not occur on a different computer, or no other computer is available to try:

  • Nano freeze when finishing sync

    iTunes freezes (completely non-responsive, won't close, etc) when it is finishing sync.  Doesn't occur all of the time but occurs enough (> 50%) to be incredibly annoying as it ends up basically locking up the system as any apps launched after tend to lock up or not even start. I can kill iTunes with resmon but there is something (service, ??) still lingering and fouling the system up, even a windows shutdown will not complete as it hangs in the process of shutting down.
    Latest iTunes (10.4.0.80), Win7. ipod nano multitouch (latest version).
    I've tried un-installing & re-installing iTunes.  I've scanned the "freeze when finishing sync" and they don't seem to apply; I don't have any iTune add-ins installed and am not using remote drives. I do tend to run close to the limit of the Nano capacity.
    any help would be appreciated.

    Read the PDF user manual for a possible solution:  iPod Manuals, search through Apple's Knowledge Base for support Articles and/or iPod Nano Support 
    If still under warranty, you can also visit your local Apple Store or AASP.

  • Previous image flashes on the screen occasionally when opening safari. Even after clearing history and cache.

    Occasionally an image from a previous website appears briefly when opening safari. I'm afraid it might do it with a site that has private information and other individuals use this ipad. Is this a problem fixed in the updates to the iOS or something different entirely.  The image flashes sometimes even after clearing history and cache.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipad keeps freezing .... Even after hard reset . . . Reset back to factory . . Etc.    is it dead?

    "so I did a hard reset, tried to restore it. But not I cannot not even open my iPad"
    Just to reiterate what Tedfixit said - I would book an appointment at the Genius Bar as well. If you restored it and it is still acting up, the device should be evaluated.

  • I am unable to edit information I have typed into a spacebar, this includes backspace, and when I highlight it, even after reloading the page

    I recently upgraded to Firefox 4 on my 3 yr old Macbook, though I am unsure if this is in fact connected. Now I am often unable to edit information I have typed into a search bar or text box (such as this one) even after reloading that page or pressing first the back, then the forward buttons. Has anyone else run into this, and does anyone know what is going on?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br />
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • 8 gig iPod nano shuts down when put on hold.

    I've got a second generation 8 gig nano here that shuts itself off when you put it on hold. Turning off hold turns the nano back on, but it makes me then choose my language again as if it is the first time it has been powered up.
    I've tried rebooting it manually and restoring it using iTunes, neither worked.
    Suggestions?
    Windows PC   Windows XP Pro  

    That's kind of an odd issue.
    You might want to try letting your iPod's battery fully drain down.
    Then, when you've reached the screen on the iPod, indicating that it needs to be charged, let it recharge up, undisturbed for 4 hours.
    Then, when you try operating the iPod, see if it still has that problem or not.
    Other than letting the battery drain down, the only next option I can think of is sending your iPod in for a replacement.

    Sorry, this is my italian version. I tried to disinstall, clean and reinstall but it's no use.
    My OS is Windows 7.

    HI,
    Try force quitting an application.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then
    press and hold the Home button until the application you were using quits.
    If that doesn't help, turn iPad off, and then turn it on again. Press and hold the
    Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears, then drag the slider. Then press and
    hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Hope this helps,,,

  • IPod Nano Freezes when unplugged with static type line on screen

    I've seen a lot about the "white screen" but mine is slightly different. It's a 2nd gen, 4GB. When plugged in, everything works fine. Syncs up, plays music, etc. As soon as it's unplugged, it gets a static looking bar across the screen and everything freezes. If music was playing, it stops, no chance of getting the click wheel to do anything. I've tried the 5r's and have done restores in regular mode and forced disk mode (since I can get the click wheel to work while plugged in). I eject it properly and everything. I'm leaning towards battery issue. Any one got a fairly certain answer ? I'm a technician and can replace my own battery if need be, but I'm new to the iPod so I'm still learning symptoms and solutions here.

    I forgot the details:
    ※ The iPod has Software Update v1.1.3 and recently been restored using iTunes v8.2.1 with no problem during the update/restore process.
    ※ The iPod works normally; battery charged when connected to PC (USB), internal speaker produces clicks (when using the wheel), screen light works fine, all settings have no problem.
    ※ The grey horizontal line only appeared when the light goes on (white). If the light goes off (dim), there is no grey horizontal line visible on the screen.
    ※ The grey horizontal line appeared at a quarter part of the screen (from the bottom of the screen), on the lower part of the Apple icon.

  • Lync Server 2013 calls lost or cannot be retrieved when put on hold.

    Out of the blue last week calls on our Lync server started dropping or getting stuck when placing them on hold. This is calls that come from the PSTN into our server. Looking at some call traces, I can see that the INVITE request to put the call on hold
    to the gateway looks about right with an SDP attribute of a=sendonly. The issue seems to be that the SIP/2.0 200 OK response from the gateway is lacking the SDP response attribute of a=recvonly. It also looks as if it the gateway is not recognizing the first
    session and trying to create a second session. If we are lucky that the call is not dropped after the initial invite/response, we can then press hold/resume and the call will finally get picked up. I'm pointing my finger at the gateway on this one. The gateway
    is provided from our ISP and we connect directly to it. Any other Ideas on why a call would do this with the gateway? Appreciate any insight.

    Hi,
    Please check if there is any error message from Mediation Server.
    From Lync Server side, please double check normalization rule. If the normalization rule not set suitably, it may cause call fail.
    Please check the network situation.
    Also, you need to check the configuration on gateway.
