After a few minutes the pixes fill the screen and i cant see anything. Turning it on and off fixes the issue for a few seconds but then it breaks again. I tried to restore from itunes but it didnt fix anything

if a restore hasn't worked then it's almost certainly a hardware issue and will need to take/send it to apple. hope it's under warranty!

My 2g iPod touch keeps on turning on and off.

It keeps on turning on and off. I have updated it and all the apps to the latest version. I tried restoring it by using iTunes but it keeps turning off when I connect it to the computer.

Hi,
Try a Reset of the iPod... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the iPod Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
Turn the iPod On...
If that does not help... See Here:

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Why is my 8gb ipod touch full with only 227 songs

Why is my 8GB Ipod touch full with only 227 and nothing else. I also share my itunes with my Iphone, There is only audio on my IPod

Did you post this same question recently?
What is the detail format of the music? Music can be compressed to different degrees. The less compression the more storage each song needs.
Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
Come back with the results.
What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
First try:
"First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
as recommended by:
How do I get rid of "other" storage: Apple Support Communities
Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

New iPod touch blinking on and off repeatedly

I just bought a new ipod touch today, and once I plugged it in to my computer, it showed the apple logo, but then the screen went haywire by blinking on and off. When it's blinking on and off, the screen looks frozen.
I've hardly touched it, what do i do? Someone please help. (please spare me any sarcasm)

Actually, after I got the iPod Touch replaced, it had the same exact problem, which I suspect that I'm just very unlucky because my computer is relatively new. I've been trying to figure this out for weeks.
I did take my iPod back to the store where the associate talked down to me and kind of made me feel stupid (on their computers, nothing is wrong..but at my house, it's pretty much cursed) ..so yet again, I am trying to get the iPod replaced and figure out what is wrong.
I also tried calling, addressing two problems (one of which is irrelevant). They pretty much gave no answer for this question. They told me to restart it, but as I said, no button works after it shuts off.

So i was updating my ipod touch (4g) to ios 6 and i needed to stop it in the middle of updating. so i held the home button and the lock button. it turned white and i tried charging it when it died but it went back to usual please help!

so i was updating my ipod touch (4g) to ios 6 and i needed to stop it in the middle of updating. so i held the home button and the lock button at the same time for it to restart. It started turning on with the apple symbol and then the screen went white. I kept trying to do the same thing but it wouldnt work. Eace time i did that the screen was a different color. I was yellow/white at one point, blue at another time and sometimes the color behind the apple symbol. It got really HOT and i just let it die. When it was dead i put it on a charger. once it got charged up it started turning on with the apple symbol. then it turned white again and then restarted without me touching anything. When it restarted it turned the blue again. i took it off the charger immediantly because i didnt want it getting as hot as it was before. ive tried every way i know how to fix it but not putting it in the computer because i dont want it to ruin the computer. Please help because i really dont want to get a new ipod. Ive read a lot about how to fix it here on apple but there all the same answer and it still doesnt work. Please respond ASAP! thank you! i could really use your help right now!

First see if placing the iPod in Recovery Mode will allow a restore.
Next try DFU mode and restore.

If not successful then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. You are not alone with this problem.

Well its another 3rd gen. 8gb ipod touch problem. Apparently they don't exist and that really ticks me off because the apple packaging clearly stated it was an 8gb 3rd gen. and now i can't update it. Apple lied and now im paying for it.I better get a new1

A year or two back i dad just used up all of my money to buy a brand new ipod touch 3rd gen. 8gb. I bought it at a local sams club and i even still have the packaging that says it was an 8gb 3rd gen. But Apple lied to me because it is only an 2nd gen. I looked it up and they don't exist. Now i can't get any games or anything because of thier false advertisement and ripping us off (as you can't update from iOS 4.2.1). This also happened to many of my friends and other Apple customers throughout the U.S. It was an unopened product from Apple. Since they tricked us i hold Apple accountable. I demand a refund and anyone else in this delemma please share your story. APPLE OWES ME A REFUND.

I see that you have the same problem as guys in the sites I found.

I think most of them manage to came out either with FULL REFUND, with 75-90% DISCOUNT for iPod 4G purchase, or FREE iPod touch 4G 8GB.
I'll tell you this, it's not Apple who lied to you, it's the misled DEALERS. I've been collecting evidences and it seems from the beginning (the time of press release) until the release of iPod 4G, Apple never stated that they intended to release iPod touch 3G in 8GB.
See this image of Apple online store back in early 2010 :
The 8GB model were only UPDATED with iOS 3 however the true NEW iPod touch at that time (Apple hadn't used the terms Generation yet) was available in larger capacity. The iPod touch 8GB wasn't RENEWED but rather RE-RELEASED with lower price as previous 8GB iPod touch were more expensive. If you still not convinced enough to believe it, well search the youtube and watch Phil Schiller's presentation in 09/2009. He shown 8GB model (he didn't say new) would only experience updated price of $199 but later on, he pushed the 8GB aside and explained the NEW larger capacity models would be granted double capacity and improved performance
Hence, I'm truthfully sorry to say that the one whom to be wronged isn't Apple but dealers themselves for false advertising. I suggest you to bring up your complain to the dealer with valid evidences because if you don't, I'm afradi you might lose your chance due to the time being.

How can I get the photos on my 8gb iPod touch transferred to my Windows computer and removed from my iPod touch? They are taking up too much space.

8GB ipod touch keeps freezing up and won't run apps correctly

I have an 8GB ipod touch that is almost a year old and it keeps freezing up. Some apps that use the motion side to side to move objects, doodlejump for example, won't work. I have reloaded apps and restored the ipod and it is still having a problem. What would be the issue and can it be fixed?

If the restore you did was from backup. restore to factory defaults/new iPod since you may have corruption that is now in your backup. If you then still have problems I wold make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If they determine it is a hardware problem and it is within warranty they should give you a replacment iPod.

RESTORING: At the moment I am downloading a movie on the itunes store my 8GB ipod touch (not my computer) (which I have already paid for) and I need to restore my ipod. Will restoring it stop/delete my downloading movie? what else does it delete?

When you restore via iTunes iTunes will download the firmware(ipsw) file. It could be that the microwave damaged the iPod and iTunes does not know what it is.
