After upgrading to 3.1 iPod pausing/playing is screwed up

Whenever you pause the iPod the icon next to the battery is supposed to turn into the pause button and remain there. However after upgrading to 3.1 whenever I pause the song the icon disappears and when I double click the home button it goes from whatever app/thing I am currently doing and goes straight to the ipod app.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

I just checked my 3G iPhone (updated to 3.1 on Wed) and I am experiencing the same thing. Not only that but my (Sony) earbuds now ONLY output to the left side. I thought the headphones were about to crap out on me (they are at least 2 years old), but when I tested them on my wife's iPhone (still on 3.0) they worked fine. has anyone experienced that? WIll Apple put out another update anytime soon? And, one of my favorite apps will not register all touch commands (although that is probably a developer issue)... just tested my Apple earbuds that came with the iPhone and the stereo works fine, but I hate those. Waahh!

  • After upgrading to mountain lion, i cannot play any video at all, be it directly off a DVD, or through streaming like youtube, BBC iplayer or even off my iTunes library

    after upgrading to mountain lion, i cannot play any video at all, be it directly off a DVD, or through streaming like youtube, BBC iplayer, love film or even directly off my iTunes library. in each case, all i get is a black screen and no error message.

    Hi, i had the same problem and tried this,
    Somehow iTunes is tied to Safari. Try this:
    Someone mentioned to clear all website data and history in safari, stupid but it was either this or the below that fixed it
    or this,
    Disable Wi-Fi Networking Services
    Many users have reported that they’ve solved their issues by disabling Wi-Fi Networking under Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services. This only relates to your location being used for Wi-Fi Networking, so it doesn’t disable Wi-Fi entirely.
    Please let me know if it works.

  • After upgrading iTunes I can no longer play my songs.  It says that "The song  ________ could not be used because the original file could not be found.  Would you like to locate it?"   I have NO clue where to look.

    After I recently Upgraded iTunes I can no longer play any movies or songs.  It says that "The song ______ can no longer be playe because the original file cannot be found.  Would you like to locate it?"   I have no clue where to look as I'm not tech savvy.  I did look in previous itunes libraries file and it's empty.  Any and all help is appreciated. 

    The links below illustrate how your iTunes should look if you use default settings in preferences.  If you don't use those settings then you have to know what you're doing.
    Image of folder structure and explanation of different iTunes versions (turingtest2 post) - https://discussions.apple.com/message/13025536 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/17457605
    The above links also illustrate the Media folder and its subfolders.  Look for a file in there in the logical structure by folder artist and album.  If you're lucky, linking one file will get an offer to link others and it iwll all come together again.
    I see you are running OSX 10.5.8  it would help to know which version of iTunes you use now and which one you used before.

  • Some videos are not showing in Apple TV playlist after upgrade to 6.0.  Can play on Macbook itunes and using airplay to Apple TV.  Anybody else have this issue?

    Some videos are not showing in my Apple TV playlists after upgrade to 6.0.  They were there prior to upgrade and I can play on Macbook itunes and also using using airplay to Apple TV.  Anybody else have this issue?

    Ok, so I'll try again.  Thank you for the idea of looking in Home Videos, which is where all my "lost" videos are listed.
    Is there a way to get them to display under their appropriate genre in the Movie section, which is where they all were listed prior to the os6 update?  It does me no good to have hundreds of movies categorized in iTunes via a genre only to have them appear in Home Videos on ATV.  These are not "home movies." They are legit mp4 movies that worked great under v5.

  • After 1.2.3 update, Ipod freezes playing songs and is SLOW

    Hello, I updated my 5th Generation to 1.2.3 with Itunes at the latest level. Now the Ipod plays for awhile and then pauses for 30 seconds and then continues playing the song. It also takes about a minute for a playlist to begin playing. All worked well before 1.2.3. I've tried reset and restore. I even reformatted the Ipod (fat32 2048k) and then restored. No luck. It appears there are no useful instructions to reload 1.2.1 with the latest Itunes and Windows Vista. If an Apple person happens to read this, I sure would like to go back to 1.2.1 to see if this problem continues.

    First, for safety, do a quick diagnostic of the iPod.
    You can do this by starting a sync as usual with iTunes, then enabling Disk Use. Now, go to Utilities/Disk Utility on your desktop, and perform a diagnostic - it should take only a few seconds. Now, go back onto iTunes and Disable Disk Use (so you can take your cable out).
    As long as you have the iTunes desktop up, click Check for Updates, and then Update. (They update thee software every month.)

  • Trying to upgrade my 1st generation ipod

    I have reinstalled the new version of itunes as the support tech said and my purchase did not show up in my ipod. Therefore, I am getting a flashing green and amber light! My ipod was set up on another computer and I used the same account. I am being charged for purchases that did not effectively download to my ipod. I need help!!! Can you successfully upgrade a 1st generation ipod to play with this new version safely. My sync does not show any music purchased and will not play.
    Do I need another battery or a new ipod? I have spent a lot of time on this and am getting nowhere. Help!!!

  • Smart playlists won't play on video ipod after upgrade to itunes version 7

    Upgraded to ITunes version 7 on Windows XP using Video Ipod with firmware level 1.2. Resynced Ipod after Itunes upgrade. Now when I hit ipod's play button on a smart playlist, nothing happens. If I hit play button from itunes, no problems...
    Is this a known issue with a solution? I was unable to find a solution in the forum. Thank you for any assistance.

    This problem only occurs when podcasts are included in the playlist. Full restoration of IPOD did not resolve problem.
    Contacted Apple support after a 45-minutes hold time; the support staff were not helpful. Won't invest in a support agreement with Apple going forward...

  • Ipod keeps playing after it has been paused, turned off and locked

    I have this problem with my 30 gb ipod: I play a song and pause the ipod, i turn it off and then lock it. go to sleep. The next day i looked at the ipod and it is playing songs. This depletes the battery because it has been playing all night. It happens also after I finish playing a song completely (it is not paused). I turn it off and lock it. The next day it shows playing songs.
    Please help. is there a setting I have to change? Is this a bug? What should I do?
    Rgds,
    Albert

    You probably have an alarm set which turns on the ipod and starts it playing.
    Go to main menu of iPod, EXTRAS -> Clock -> go into any of the clocks shown -> Alarm Clock and then see if it is ON.

  • Why won't music play on my ipod after upgrading to ios 6?

    I installed the new ios 6 software and since then my music have not been playing on my ipod touch. I am already frustrated since I recently wyped away my computer and reinstalled everything, but itunes only backed up the music I bought from the itunes store to my computer, instead of my entire library saved to itunes and icloud, but I digress. At this moment I just want to know how come none of my music will play on my ipod touch after the ios 6 upgrade.

    Try hooking the iPod up to the computer, turning off sync for music ("ok" to deleting songs from device), then turning that back on and resyncing.

  • Video iPod Stopped Playing Video After Upgrade to 1.2

    Hi everyone.
    I upgraded mine and my boss' 5th Generation iPods (both are 60 Gig) to version 1.2.
    Mine works fine, but he is getting on an airplane and his video stopped working after a few minutes of watching a movie.
    Aside from reloading the software (which isn't an option at this point as he is on the plane) does anyone have any suggestions?
    Has this happened to anyone else?
    I can tell him to reset it, but any other ideas??
    Thanks for your replies.

    I also just upgraded to ITunes V.7 and IPod Updater 1.2
    Now I can no longer view any of my videos (which I purchased online from Apple Music Store) on my iTunes...AND after upgrading to V1.2... now they won't download into any of my 3 iPods either!
    (error msg: Video X was not copied because the video format was not supported by your iPod)...these Apple-supplied Pixar videos are in MPEG4 (.m4V format)?

  • Ipod music missing after upgrading to 5.0 os

    After upgrading to 5.0 os on my iphone 4 I have had several problems...
    1. all my contacts disappeared and then started to reappear when I would open General > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then change the Sort Order and then change it back to what I wanted I did this like 3 times and then all my contacts were back
    2. It keeps freezing while I am in an app, typing a text, doing just about anything
    3. Alot of my music is gone, like the album work is there, the name of the song, the name of the artist but when you go to click to play it, it automatically jumps to the next song or it will play the next song on the list while still showing the other songs album work, title and artist
    4. in the ipod the "play triangle" is always there, whether it is playing or not so to pause the music I have to hit the play triangle 3 times before it will stop
    this is my problem list so far and I have only had the new os for 3 days....i am afraid as to what more time will show
    as for now I am going to try re-sync my phone and maybe it will fix some of the quirks...i already tried a reset and it did not fix the problems...

  • My iPod Touch can no longer download Podcast Videos after upgrading to iOS4

    After upgrading OS 3.1.3 to iOS4, My iPod Touch (2nd Generation) can no longer download such video podcasts as NBC News, CBS News, ABC News and Cranky Geeks from iTunes store. The moment the download starts, there is always an annoying prompt "this video cannot be played on this iPod".
    It's really frustrating!!!

    Same thing happening to mine also, still cant find a reason.

  • IPod no longer updates smart playlists after upgrade to 1.3

    After upgrading my 5th Gen 30GB iPod to 1.3 I noticed immediately that the smart playlists on my iPod aren't updating any longer. Until 3 days ago my iPod had firmware version 1.2.1 and all smart playlists worked as expected.
    I have many smart playlists that I have been happily using everyday for the past 2 years to play only new podcasts, shuffle my favorite tunes based on when they have been played last, and move songs in and out of My Top rated tunes based on their ratings. These no longer work on my iPod, but when I sync with iTunes they update fine. I didn't make any changes to my smart playlists before or immediately after upgrading, at least until I noticed the problem.
    For the last couple of days since upgrading I have tried deleting all my smart playlists and recreating them, that didn't help. I have also tried restoring my iPod, which also didn't help. I have also tried creating a very basic smart playlist i.e.
    Match all of the following rules - checked
    Rating is ***
    Live updating - checked
    Sync'd that to my iPod and started playing a tune and changed it's rating to 5 stars. I then entered a static playlist, played a song from that and when it was done entered the new 5 star rating smart playlist and it wasn't updated.
    I'm don't know what else to try, I've repeated the same test as above on my wife's 2nd Gen nano and it worked as expected. Has anyone else noticed smart playlists failing to update since the upgrade? I have searched here and on google, but only found reference to much older firmwares.

    I'm having the same problem, once I've listened to a song in my 0 plays list, go out to a new menu, then back in, all the songs that have been played are still there, when a few weeks ago they were taken off and only unplayed songs were still there. Now if I switch to another playlist and back, I have to scroll all the way back to the point I was when I changed which didn't happen earlier.
