How to fix freezing screen on ipod touch 2G after 4.2.1 update

i went to the apple store an they help me update my ipod touch 2G to 4.2.1 then a couple hour later my ipod just kept freezing and freezing how do i fix that or should i just show the apple store whats happening?

I too have a ipod 2g here. I have already went into the info for the song and added my lyrics. When opening the song in the ipod with the album artwork in the background, I click on  artwork and nothing happens, I tried clicking on the bar at top but that is no help. Clicking once on artwork is not working. If you are posting help here make sure you have tried it or seen it work on a 2G IPOD, because consider that they are OLDER.
If any one has any help for this please post.

  • Help: I have recently downloaded the newest software version for apple products. I have a iPod touch. After the process of updating my software, my photo app doesn't work anymore.

    Help: I have recently downloaded the newest software version for apple products. I have a iPod touch. After the process of updating my software, my photo app doesn't work anymore. I can't take pictures or view them at all. Every time I try opening the app it kicks me out of it and sends me to the home screen. I have tried turning off my iPod and back on multiple times. Even double tapping the home screen button and closing my opened apps. And I tried looking for the photo app in the app store but I did not see it. So I am wondering what can I do? And is this due to the new software update? Does anyone else have this problem?

    No, I have not tried any backup tools. I havent restored my ipod back to factory settings yet and then sync everything back on it. I am kind of scared too because I dont want to lose anything. I have just been hoping some new apple software update will come out because I know several people have had problems when updating to the newest version available.

  • How do I get my video playlists back on iPod Touch 4G after (epic fail) iOS6 update

    As other users have identified, playlists present on iTunes on laptop but not on iPod touch 4G after iOS6 update except when select edit. Can I get them back? Not wasting time messing around. Either this is easily sortable or I get a new player from another maunfacturer - seems Apple can't be bothered to sort these issues so not sure I can be bothered with Apple anymore.

    i had a problem simular after doing an update on itunes, I re-set=up the itunes according to my os and its working fine

  • How much does it cost to fix cracked screen on iPod touch

    How much does it cost to replace cracked screen on my iPod touch 2nd gen? I have heard it is free in the apple store when it is the first time.

    Not free the first time.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. I doubt it is worth it for the old 2G
    Apple - iPod Repair price                       
    A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

  • How to fix dead pixels on iPod touch 4g?

    Hi.
    I have a 2 year old iPod touch in very good condition, and I am starting to notice that some pixels where dying. It started out as a very few, then a bit more, and this morning, there was even more. I want to fix this cuz I am afraid that the problem grows and that I will no longer be able to use my iPod. It is out of warranty now, and I do not feel like paying a fortune to get it fixed...I take extreme good care of my iPod. And I have no money to get a new one.
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    Hi nath
    Unfortunatly the only solution i can see is to either buy a replacement screen or a new ipod. As you said you have no money to get a new one so you may be able to find a replacement screen cheaper than buying a new ipod. Or you could try an LCD repair kit, though i have only seen them for fixing LCD screens in car speedometers.
    Hope this helped!

  • TS2771 how to fix no backlighting on ipod touch

    The backlight on my ipod touch doesn't work any more.
    I can still see the screen if there's alot of light in the room but,
    I can't see anything if there isn't.
    Has this happened to anyone else?

    Try restoring the iPod. Foist from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. Likely the backlighti is bad or it could be the driver circuits.
