Each song plays for one minute and then nano shuts down, what to do?

What to do about nano shutting down after one minute of play?

Hello cs1870,
I would be concerned too if my iPod was shutting off after one minute.  I found an article with some steps you can take to address issues like this:
Constantly restarting
Try putting the iPod into disk mode and restoring:
Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
While the device is in disk mode, connect it to iTunes and try to restore.
Sync to iTunes and try to restore the iPod

Best,

  • When opening FIrefox (Mac OS) it opens one tab and then immediately shuts down.

    When I attempt to start/open FIrefox, now, it begins - checks add-ons, opens one tab - but then immediately shuts down.

  • Podcasts in both iPhone and iPad will play for a minute and then reset back to the beginning, can only stream, cannot download - no problem on PC laptop with exact same Podcasts with exact same internet set up.  What is the fix?

    This is incredibly frustrating - we had a IPhone 4s that had no problems here for about 7 monts.  We have a new IPhone 4s and recently a new IPad 2.  Ever since the mandatory switch to using the Podcasts App for iOS based products (my PC laptop works fine), the podcasts will say "cannot be downloaded at this time" and will stream for 30 seconds to a few minutes, then abruptly start over at the beginning. We cannot fast forward ahead properly in the new clunky interface, and the secondary screen where you get to see the "tape player" going through podcast does not skip when you move the timer icon anywhere in the podcast.  It is though they are running in parallel.
    We are talking podcasts by the BBC, NPR, etc and the Lenovo doesn't have any issues bc the whole system is inside ITunes.
    I have looked all over the internet and cannot find a fix, please help.

    Hi jhyiesla,
    Im not sure wether I got you right or not. But my advice/s would be as follows:
    These steps help you get rid of old apps you downloaded years ago and you do not use anymore.(Also frees space on your mac after emptying the trash)
    1) go to iTunes and delete all applications in it. Make sure to move them to trash! Do not empty your trash yet. Its your backup if step 3 doesnt appear.
    2) connect both your devices(one after each other) and make a backup. !!!Dont press the Sync button, press the Back Up Now Button
    3) Then it asks you if you want to backup applications as well. Confirm. (This is how apps get transferred manually)
    4) Then Sync your devices... The first time it might be, that there are some additional apps loaded to your devices you dont want to.. delete them on your Device (not iTunes) and after that you should be good every time you sync again.
    5) now you can empty your trash on your mac.
    Further,
    - You should regularly connect your devices with iTunes to make sure they are backed up. (Even if you have activated iCloud backup, the iTunes backup is more proper i.e.. Apps)
    - If you hate scrolling through a list of apps in iTunes, you can re/install apps directly on iOS not via iTunes. I absolutely never go to the "Applications" section in iTunes. I install and delete apps directly on iOS.

  • I purchased a tv show from itunes, downloaded it to my Ipad opened it in itunes nd it only plays about 45 seconds and then it shuts down.  How can i get it to keep playing?

    Does anyone know how to get it to play the whole program?  It is a 1 hr hd program.

    Ran into the same thing here.  Turns out you shouldn't be trying to watch them from iTunes - instead open the "videos" app and all of your purchses should all be there and play in full.

  • I just bought music on my iTunes account and the files did not download completely. The songs play for a minute or so then skips to next song.

  • HT1725 i downloaded an album and one song only plays for 3 seconds and then skips to the next song. I can't get it to re-download either. What am I supposed to?

    This is the second time that I've downloaded an album and one song off of it will play for 3 seconds and then skip to the next song. I've tried everything under the iTunes help and nothing has worked.  Any ideas?

    Why can't you delete it and redownload it?
    If still problem contact iTunes

    hello, normally such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions. please try to remove all program rules for firefox in your firewall and let it detect the program again: [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]]

  • My ipad went blank last night for no apparent reason.  It was on one minute, and then completely dark.  I didn't touch it, it just seemed to have died.  I tried turning it back on/off, but nothing happens.  Anyone else have a similar situation?

    Thansk for the reply King_Penguin...let me elaborate and see what you think...I had the ipad2 in the office and saw the battery was getting really low.  I tried charging it with the iphone charger (connects to my pc at work).  It took a while, but it got enough juice in the ipad2 to bring it back to life.  when I got home, I hooked it up, and got to about 50%.  All was fine, then I was attempting to hook it up to my TV with the AV adapter (or VGA adapter, whatever it is), left the ipad alone for a minute, came back to it, and that's when it went dark.  I tried the home/sleep buttons, but only for about 5 seconds...any other suggestions in case that doesn't work?  Thanks again...

  • Purchased song plays for a few seconds then skips.

    Purchased song plays for a few seconds then skips. The rest of the songs from the album play fine. Purchased 5 albums at once and all songs play except the one. I've looked for a way to report this and can't locate a link and I was unable to reload the song from the purchased link. I am using Windows Vista and Itunes 10.6.3.5

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History.

  • After purchasing an album 4 of the songs play for a few seconds then cut out

    i purchased 2 albums off of iTunes and when i went to play the one album 4 of the songs play for a few seconds then cut out.

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • My ipod shuffle is showing up when plugged into my computer. Also, isn't the orange light suppose to stay on until charged. Mine lights orange for a minute and then goes off.

    my ipod shuffle is showing up when plugged into my computer. Also, isn't the orange light suppose to stay on until charged. Mine lights orange for a minute and then goes off and also it wont be recongnize by my computer .please help

    I'm having the same problem.  I'm using a new shuffle usb cable in my 2nd generation shuffle and nothing shows up on computer.  I'm wondering if the dock for the second gen is different than the new usb cable direct into the 2nd gen shuffle. I don't have a dock for it.  Before I buy one on ebay I hope someone can assist.

  • Wait for 3 minutes and then run another method

    I'm calling a JMS service lets say runProgress() the method adds a new row into a database then waits for 3 minutes and then runs another method that removes the row from the table.
    I was thinking about this, and thought that I could create a new Thread, let it wait for 3 minutes and the run the other method.
    The thing is what happens if there are 10.000 users running this at the same time, then there would be 10.000 Threads, wouldn't it be a hevy load on the server.
    Is there any other way?? Suggestions?

    What do you think about if there are massive, like
    10.000+, queue's in memory, this would be slow down
    for the server, right? or isn't it a trouble?you don't need 10.000 queues - just one single queue. you may have a lot of objects in the queue but this is at most a memory problem - depends on the size of the information you need.
    maybe i was not clear enough: you have a single queue where the tasks are put into. then there are other threads (at least 1) that read from the queue and perform actions.
    One option, that I don't know how to do yet but
    thinking about it, is to let the database have some
    kind of a procedure that would run after 3 minutes,
    but I guess that I were only moving the memory trouble
    from the app-server to the database. (hope you
    understand me)yes, i think so.
    So it would be just as good to do this in the
    app-server as in the database, what do you think?a good idea. typically with all these optimization issues you just have to try out. otherwise you won't know the result.

    I can start my iPod but it will only stay on the Apple icon screen for 5 minutes and then shuts off, what do I do to fix this problem?

    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.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
