Follow up to IPod touch question about kicking back to menu

What it's doing is while at a site such as Facebook or while reading something on MSN or ESPN, the screen goes black and kicks back to the icon menu- very annoying- what can I do?

IPod Touch question about Firewire and USB cable

I just bought a USB 2.0 extension cable on ebay to charge my 64 GB iPod Touch. I also bought a USB wall socket that I was going to plug the extension cord in to (I haven't received the wall socket yet). Come to find out when testing the extension cord on my laptop I get the message " charging is not supported with this accessory". I thought that was the case only with firewire cables. But this is supposed to be USB 2.0 What's the deal? Can a firewire cable look like a regular USB cable? And does anyone have a work around that I can use?

I realized yesterday that I had another USB wall jack which I use at work to charge my IPT. I took it home with me plugged it into the wall and tried to charge the IPT without the USB extension cord, and it worked fine. When I connected the USB extension cord, I got the same message, "Charging is not supported with this accessory." I'm so frustrated. Mainly because I don't understand what is causing this issue and therefore don't know how to remedy it. I would buy another extension cord, but I don't know if that one will work either.
Here is the link to the USB extension cord that I purchased on ebay:

My ipod touch is about 3.5 years old and just recently I have had trouble charging it. No matter what I plug it into it c

Mu Ipod touch is about 3.5 years old and just recently I have had trouble charging it it just says charging not suported thats with USB into a PC, on a docing station and in the car. I can get a bit of charge into it via the docking station before it displays the not suported message. Any idea?

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Can not restore ipod touch. About 167MB of 346,8MB get loaded than download stops, a few minutes later: ERROR 3259

Can not restore ipod touch. About 167MB of 346,8MB get loaded than download stops, a few minutes later: ERROR 3259! ( High Speed Internet Connection 16000kBits/sec)

Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

I have ipod touch purchase 3 years back is it possible to install iso 4.3 version in my old ipod, i have ipod touch purchase 3 years back is it possible to install iso 4.3 version in my old ipod

i have ipod touch purchase 3 years back is it possible to install latest version in that ipod touch

Check this Apple site:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1358
It tells you the devices supported for which the latest iOs 4.3.3 is available. At the very least, if you are not clear on whether or not your iPod is 3rd generation, then attach it to your computer, launch iTunes; select your device from the side bar and click "Update" on the Summary page. That will tell you if your iPod is eligible for the update.

Nike + crashes on my Ipod touch after about 1 hr 40 min run? HELP!

I am using my son's 2nd Generation (I know, I know, replace it already! But he has the 4th Gen Ipod touch, I kept his 2nd Gen) with Nike +. The software has been updated to the most recent version that this device can accept, and I have rebooted the device to the original config once already....
I have no issues at all with the app till about an 1:40 to 1:50 mins into the run. All of a sudden you can hear whatever song it is on, skips a few times then stops. If I hit the button on the front of the screen, it immediatly closes the Nike + app with no way to continue with my workout.
It does however keep the run data to the point of the music skipping and stopping as it saves it in my history....
Please help if you have encountered this and know how to fix it..
Thanks,
T
