How do I stop my music from fast forwarding all the time?

Every time I try to play something on my iPod, it fast forwards through the song I'm trying to listen to or several songs or even the whole CD and I can't listen to any music at all. I also have trouble getting it to sleep and to stop playing. Do I have to replace something or is this fixable?

In the previous software you could double tap the home button and the apps icons would appear (shaking) and all you had to do was to press the red - button to turn off.  Well since updating to iOS7 all have been able to do is pause but I am unable to turn it off from playing in the background.
A friend of mine says to swipe upward but I still don't see a delete/off button.

  • How do I stop I cloud from up grading all the time, it has been 48 hours and still upgrading. Not able to stop it, Help

    Need help stopping I cloud upgrading the past 48 hours.

    Something has gone wrong, on an iPhone 3Gs the erase all operation should be instantaneous. Disconnect your phone & force it into recovery mode:
    Turn your phone off. Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, select "new".

  • I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.

    My old computer crashed and I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.

    Then you will need to search for a 3rd party program to transfer content
    Pasted from another thread
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2234756?start=0&tstart=0
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump andiPodRobot.
    If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
    iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
    There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

    In iTunes 11 uncheck the preferences setting in in the iTunes Preferences panel "Advanced > Copy Files to iTunes Media folder when adding to Library"

    Kathryn,
    Is MS Word the only app that is causing this issue, if so then it's probably a problem with Word. If I'm correct about it only occuring with Word then please re-post to:

    When you do please let them know the version of Office installed on your computer, it will be either Office 2004, 2008 or 2011!

    *Tip: ALL CAPS = SHOUTING*
    You don't tell us what year model MBP you have. Also, there is no such thing as iOS 10.9.5, but there is Mac OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks. In addition to that, tell what you mean exactly by "... locking up all the time..." and What you Did exactly when you "... undid it once before..."

  • How to I transfer my music from my ipod to the new hard drive?

    My windows laptop crashed two months ago and I lost everything on it.  I was able to get the hard drive replaced but all of my music is on my ipod (nano - 2nd edition, I think).  Only a small percentage is purchased via itunes.
    I have been googling how to now move my music from my ipod to my new hard drive but most solutions assume that I still have the old laptop/hard drive.  I know I was able to do this previously when the hard drive crashed, but I can't seem to remember now as it was about 5 years ago.  I'm afraid to do anything just now as I don't want it syncing to an empty library and have my ipod wiped clean.
    Is there any way of moving the music from my ipod to my itunes library on the new hard drive??  Please help as I don't want to have to reload over 100 cd's

  • How to restore an iPad when it is rebooting all the time and cannot connect to iTunes

    Two days ago, I was updating applications. The iPad crashed during the process so I did a hard rebood. Since then, the iPad is in a perpetual reboot mode.
    Once in a while, I get the security keypad but as soon as my password is put, the iPad freezes and then, goes in reboot.
    We tried to connect to iTunes on our MacBook Pro but the connection is often not possible because of the reboot.
    A few times, we were able to see the iPad menu and even tried a restore from iTunes.  iTunes downloaded the iOS 6.1.3 again (over multiple connection/reconnections) but no help. The iPad is still rebooting all the time.
    What can I do?

    Send the iPad into DFU mode and then restore it through iTunes.
    Google the instructions on how to place your iPad into DFU mode.

  • 25% cpu usage from sysmond process all the time

    Hi,
    I have a MacBook Pro Retina running Mountain Lion and my battery is running out very soon (under 2 hours) and the MacBook is getting very warm. I found the process sysmond running with at least 25% cpu usage all the time. I can't kill that beast and it justs ***** my battery. A reboot doesn't help. How can I fix that?
    Regards,
    Philip

    Open Activity Monitor,  Select 'sysmond', click on it and then click on the red octagon on the top of the widow.  The process should stop.
    Ciao.
    There may be other reasons for the short battery run time.

  • Why my ipod sync whole music library when connected all the time ?

    My itunes(latest)  everytime i connect my ipod (5th gen ) syncs all the songs from begining even though there is no new songs added ? Can someone please help me out this . This has been happening all the time and i have to wait all my thousand plus songs to get synced all the time !

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    or maybe this:
    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 iPod 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.
