Does anyone ever have the problem where the iPod won't go to sleep?

i used to have a 4GB nano...and occasionally it wouldnt go to sleep...the backlight would just turn off for a few seconds...i recently got a 30GB iPod video...it is excellent might i add...but every now and then it wont turn off right away...this ever happen to anyone else?

It can just be that the iPod is loading something.
It can happen more on a 5G iPod. For example, if you are listening to music longer the iPod loads it from the HD. If you stop it then, the iPod may not turn off. Usually trying a couple of times or waiting a minute does the trick. If you were watching a video the iPod may still be doing something so won't turn off right away.
With the iPod nano, the same thing may apply. Even though it has no HD to spin, the iPod can be finishing up something (for example if you ended a song or just exited the photo library).
Sometimes the iPod nano won't turn off after syncing it to the computer simply because it is finishing up with notes, photos, etc.
The "problem" usually happens more with iPod's with HDs, simply because it takes longer to "load" something or the HD may be spinning.

  • TS1630 Does anyone else have a problem where you can't hear anything from your headphones when you plug them in and they play from the speakers? I checked the jack and there was nothing in it so I don't know what to do....

    I tried to listen to my music from my headphones and when I plugged the headphones into the jack, and pressed play, the music came out through the speakers. I don't know why that happened but I've never been able to get sound through my headphones.

  • I am just wondering does anyone else have a problem in lightroom 4 where some of the tools dont work

    does anyone else have the problem of some tools not working in lightroom 4? for eg. skin smoothing and iris enhance??

    The background music I chose was a standard Apple Loop, but on playback it sounds like someone has cut the music, each time the Loop connects to the extended loops I made when I dragged the end of the initial loop out over a short distance? Did I do it wrong?
    When you extend the loop by dragging the the end of the loop (you'll see a bracket as cursor), you will extend the loop by silence and hear a sharp cut. To make the loop longer, loop it. Grab it in a way, that you'll see a curved arrow as pointer and not the bracket.

  • After the newest update, i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    after the newest update ( iso 7) , i can no longer type in traditional chinese ( pin yin), does anyone else have the same problem?

    I downloaded and tried EasyFind. It works but it took 30+ seconds to complete finding 3 files that are on One of my Five 25+ Gb partitions of my 130 Gb Seagate Cuda(Really 160 Gb, but my Sawtooth will only recognize 130) I figured that if I ever got a better box, I could reformat it to see the whole 160 Gb. So, as far as I can see, Spotlight's indexing scheme which finds the files instantly is probably preferable. Spot light allows you to rename your files from within it's app window. I've always thought that was pretty powerful. Could my doing so be causing me any issues? As i said it is the inability to Type in the Finder that seemed to be caused from changing file Extentions that were mis-written. Maybe it was a delayed reaction to my renaming files in the Spotlight app? I've done both on occasion.
    As for these .DS_Store files. Apparently you can NOT stop them from being written to any folder that you touch/open/view during a days session. But, as a function of the OS, are the essential to have in their respective folders Forever? I've looked at the .DS_Store terminator app briefly and assume that getting rid of these files won't hurt the regular operation of my OS. They will just be re-written if I ever have to go back to any particular folder again. But, apparently, some have said that if the plan on burning a CD or DVD of their data, they delete the .DS_Store files first and then do the burn.
    I'm thinking from your having suggested this tremination app that you suspect that my having all of these ,DS_Store files could be a situation where any of them could have become corrupted and terminating them regularly should be part of my regular maintenance.
    Does that sound like I'm understanding what I can do?
    TIA

  • Ebooks,  half the books I have bought have complete sections or chapters missing.  Does anyone else have this problem or am I doing something wrong in the downloading of them

    Half the ebooks I have bought from iTunes have large sections or complete chapters missing from them which is beginning to seriously irritate.  Does anyone else have this problem or it is something to do with the downloading. In which case does anyone have an answer?

    You should be able to delete and redownload them via the bookshelf in the iBooks app : tap the Edit button top right of the shelf, select and delete the books, then go into the Store via the button top left of the bookshelf, and in the Purchased tab (bottom right of the store) find and re-download the books.
    If they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those books and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

    I continue to get an error 37 message when trying to restore my iphone 3GS which crashed after trying to upload the last update. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Did you manage to fix the issue?
    I have exactly the same issue as described above : I installed the update 5.1.1 on my iphone 3GS and since then, I can not turn it on anymore. In Itunes, I get an error 37 when I am doing a restauration and it stops.
    This error has nothing to do with firewall : I tried to restore the phone on several computers, including in an Apple reseller and it did not work anywhere.
    I spent several hours on phone with the hotline from Apple which arrived to the conclusion that it is a hardware issue, but the phone was working perfectly fine until I installed this update!

    Try resetting the iPad. Simultaneously hold down the Home and the On buttons until the iPad shuts off. Ignore the off slider if it should appear. This should take only about ten seconds or so. Once shut down is compete, turn the iPad back on.

  • Ipad2 doesn't sync with my kindle. When I open the kindle app I have to search for the correct page. Does anyone else have this problem?

    When I open the kindle app on iPad 2 I have to search for the correct page. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Well, I did a search on apple.com and found this:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-news/2010/04/the-hidden-itunes-visualizer-con trols.html
    "The Visualizer -- graphics that swoop and pulse with the music -- has been part of iTunes' DNA from the beginning. And because its creators wanted to interact with the graphics in real time as well as watch them, Visualizer includes some single keystroke commands that change what you see while it runs. But these commands are hidden by default lest they obstruct the graphics.
    Use the Show/Hide Visualizer command in the View menu to turn Visualizer on and off, and use the Visualizer menu to select among the choices. If the choice you're using has hidden commands you can see them for a brief time by typing ? while a song is playing and Visualizer is visible. The keystrokes will work regardless of whether the help menu is showing, so if you memorize them it's possible to add Virtuoso Visualizer Player to your list of accomplishments. (For the Visualizer choice called Jelly, available only in iTunes for Mac, try holding the keys down, especially the number keys, for maximum effect.")
    Not that you care. >.<

  • The iPhone 4S battery runs down very quickly.   Does anyone else have this problem?

    The battery in my new iPhone 4s runs down very quickly.  Does anyone else have this problem?

    Location services is NOT running all the time, only when the arrow appears in the message bar. It is not a major consumer of power unless you are actively using it (such as using the Maps app), and even then it is a minor factor in battery life; loading maps is the big user of power in the Maps app. And turning off Location Services defeats Find my iPhone.
    There are only 2 heavy battery consumers, cellular data and interactive games. Everything else (bluetooth, location services, WiFi, etc) are tiny in comparison to these and will not make a significant difference in battery life.

  • I purchase songs from Itunes and as soon as I sync my phone, the song gets deleted. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

    I purchase songs from Itunes and as soon as I sync my phone, the song gets deleted. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

    I have random songs that a have paid for but they just disappear, or cannot be downloaded and so on. Sometimes they are indexed wrongly, and can't be found because of that, no work around because also the search function of itunes has gotten totally unusable. Not much fun to be an apple user anymore. I once used to be a very loyal user. My first apple was a Macintosh SE and an image writer II.
