80g Classic Ipod suddenly stopped playing movies!

Help! My 80g Classic Ipod suddenly stopped playing movies! Is there any hope?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Try resetting the iPod...
Resetting iPod
If that doesn't work, make sure everything is up to date...
iTunes
iPod Updater
Updating iPod's Software
If the problem persists, see if a restore helps...
Restore the iPod
Also, is this with all videos or purchased ones? Do purchased songs work fine?
Finally, see if this sample video works (the one for the iPod)...

    Why does my ipod suddenly stop playing?

    is your battery charged?  How many songs do you have on the playlist (if you are playing a  playlist when it stops)?   I know that when the earbud wires are accidentally disconnected from the ipod body, the music stops automatically.

  • CAN ANYONE HELP ME??!!  i i have an ipod touch 4th gen and it has all of a sudden stopped playing music.

    i have an ipod touch 4th gen and it has all of a sudden stopped playing music. i click on the song and it goes onto it then all of a sudden goes onto the song then goes to the music menu without playing the song. please help

    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore the iPod from backup
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My ipod shuffle 2nd gen suddenly stops playing music after 15-20 mins.First it flashes green light and then flashes red light rapidly. Any solution to this ?

    My ipod shuffle 2nd gen suddenly stops playing music after 15-20 mins.First it flashes green light and then flashes red light rapidly. Any solution to this ?

    A 2nd gen shuffle is about six year old at this point.  The likely cause is a battery that is worn out, with greatly reduced capacity or inability to hold a charge.  The initial green light shows a good charge.  The red light means the battery is drained.
    Since the shuffle still appears in iTunes, you can try doing a Restore in case the cause is related to corrupted software on the shuffle.  The Restore button is on the shuffle's Settings screen in iTunes.  This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.
    Also, when the light becomes red and the shuffle stops playing, try turning OFF the shuffle for at least ten seconds.  Then, turn it back ON.  This resets the shuffle.  Does it play again?  If it does, let it play until it no longer plays again.  Repeat turning it OFF and ON until it no longer plays.  Then, connect it to power and charge it to full.  See if that makes any difference.
    If that does not help, the solution is to replace the battery.  If you have a repair shop do it, the cost is probably uneconomical, compared to the cost of a brand new 4th gen shuffle ($50) that has more features, and a new set of headphones, plus a one-year warranty.

  • HT201401 Hi my 4s has all of a sudden stopped playing sound.

    Hi my 4s has all of a sudden stopped playing sound. I have a ringtone but no sound for music/movies etc. tried turning on and of and letting bat go flat then recharging. Sound came back for a while then went again. I noticed this started soon after I upgraded to 5.1.1 . Ive also looked at the error reports the phone generates for apple and there are a few memory low notes.  Any help would be appreciated.

    We have a WHOLE discussion about the issue over here:
    Re: IOS 5.1.1. update bug (Volume Control)
    So far Apple is not doing anything to fix the bug with 5.1.1 It's really annoying!

  • Music suddenly stop playing

    Jus buy myself an ipod shuffle.... It sudden stop playing over some time with a "special" sound come out from the earphone. It does not responsive unless i reset it. Then it need to be reset for 10s. What actually cause this problem? It does not happen on the same song. Sometimes can be happen after 10mins or 30mins.
    PS: the "special" sound is like song problem but doesn't seems like the song problem as i check on the same song after resetting my ipod.

    I've had the same problem happen to me 3 times. It happened to me this morning while I was running. I was using my new replacement that the apple store had swapped out for me. It's gotten to the point of being beyond frustrating. I'd like for it to hold up thru my half marathon.

  • Songs suddenly stop playing

    When i listen to some songs on my touch they suddenly stop playing and then it skips to the next song. they play fine on itunes though. The same happens on my sisters ipod except instead of skipping to the next song, it goes to the home screen. i've tried restoring it but that didn't work.

    These songs are listed in your iPod database but your iPod does not contain them anymore or they are just lost somewhere on your iPod hard drive.
    The only tool I know that can rebuild these links is CopyTrans Doctor http://www.copytrans.net/doctor.php

  • Why does my ipod touch stop playing songs when i click to play, it plays for a few seconds sometimes longer and then goes onto the next song. Help!

    Please help,my ipod touch stops playing songs sometimes a few seconds in and then other times halfway. It cant be the song because different songs do it each time. Ive tried to restore it and it makes no difference :(
    Please help as this problem gets very annoying. Thanks!

    Did you restore to factory defaults/new iPod and sync stuff to your iPod?  If you restore from backup there may be some corruption that is now in the backup.

  • My Mac has suddenly stopped playing my DVDs including a DVD it played fine only 3 days ago. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong and how I could fix it? Thank you.

    My Mac has suddenly stopped playing my DVDs including a DVD it played fine only 3 days ago. I insert the DVD and wait for the player to start automatically but after 10 minutes, nothing is happening and it sounds like the disk has stopped spinning. I've now tried with four different DVDs (all store bought and so perfectly normal disks). The Mac doesn't eject the disk or anything it just doesn't seem to respond to it being there at all.
    My main confusion is why this suddenly happened today when it was perfectly fine last week.
    Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong and how I could fix it? Thank you.

  • My Mac suddenly stopped playing through my external speakers which are fine and working well with other devices.

    My Mac suddenly stopped playing through my external speakers which are fine and working well with other devices.

    Have a look in System Preferences -> Sound -> Output.
    Plug the speakers out. Do you now see "Internal Speaker" as the name from the Built-in device? If you replug your speakers, is it now changing to "Headphone?

  • My Apple iPod Nano stops playing shortly after plugging in the correct headset, but works on docking station. I've tried enabling and disabling crossfade in settings. Any suggestions?

    My apple ipod Nano stops playing shortly after plugging in the correct headset. I've tried enabling and disabling crossfade in settings. Any suggestions?

    Make sure your headphones are plugged ALL the way in, meaning the white part of the headphones is flush with the Nano and you cannot see any silver from the plug still showing.

  • Youtube suddenly stopped playing videos

    My iMac OSX 10.6.8 suddenly stopped playing youtube videos.
    I haven't installed any new software or changed anything that coincided with the loss.
    The youtube screen says blocked plug in.
    I read the existing discussions and:
      I opted out of the HTML5 pilot, restarted Safari (5.1.8).  Still won't play videos. 
    In the past, videos played on Quick Time Player so I'm reluctant to install Flash Player. 
    Any ideas??

    You cannot watch YouTube w/o flashplayer.  You will need to install the latest version from Adobe's website.  Also, regarding QT install Perian (AVI and FLV support) 
    After doing the above installations, make sure you repair permissions and restart your computer. 

  • HT2045 itunes suddenly stopped playing on my windows 8 laptop, cannot seem to find a solution

    itunes has suddenly stopped playing songs in my windows 8 laptop.  I have tried uninstalling and re-installing with no effect.  Can't seem to find a solution in the itunes help either.  Any other suggestions?

    So I try to get this done for a little while! I download itunes but during installation i get a message concerning a .dll file.
    With that one, even though you're getting a different error message, try the procedure from the following user tip:

  • Many of my older ITunes downloads play perfectly well on my IMac but constantly skip to the next song or suddenly stop playing on my IPhone. The problem is the same with both my old 4s and my new 5s. I have tried deleting and re-downloading to the phones.

    Many of my older ITunes downloads play perfectly well on my IMac but constantly skip to the next song or suddenly stop playing on my IPhone. The problem is the same with both my old 4s and my new 5s  phones. I have tried deleting and re-downloading my music library to the phones, but the result is always the same.

    I'm adding more information:
    in Finder, my iMovie folders are all visible and accessible.  When I click on a clip from iMovie Events folder, Quicktime opens and plays the clip.  ALL my video is not missing - it just isn't showing up in the Event Library!
    This happened all of a sudden, while I was working on iMovie project (on both computers).
    All my Projects are intact, and play when I open them. 

  • I have a HP Pavilion dv6 that has suddenly stopped playing any kind of audio. How do I fix this?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 that suddenly stopped playing any kind of sound.  That's with earphones plugged in or not.  The microphone indicator in sound setup indicates that it is listening to external sound, and when I play system sounds, the speaker icon in the volume mixer indicates that the hardware thinks it is playing sounds, but nothing is coming out of the laptop at all.  I thought if it were a speaker not working internally I could fix it with earphones or external speaker but that isn't working either.  
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update, select 'View update history' in the left hand pane and then select 'Installed updates' link in the following window.
    Locate update KB2962407, right click it and select Uninstall.  When done, restart the notebook, open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update and select 'Check for updates'.  You'll see the update you just uninstalled being offered again - right click and select 'Hide Update'.
    After this you may or may not need to delete and reload the Audio driver - if you do, the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
    Recovery Manager - Windows 8.
    Recovery Manager - Windows 7
