  • My ipod turns off automaticly

    everytime i lock my ipod and after like 10 mintues of being lock my ipod seems to automaticly turn off and i have to turn it on again to use it. Is there a solution to this by the way my ipod is broken can that be the cause or is my ipod actually programed to shut down automatically after not being active for more than 10 mins?
    and i know it isnt because of the battery because this occurs when i have full battery

  • How to fix your iPod if it can't be mounted or recognized

    Unless the iPod's HD is dead and damaged, it can be fixed by doing a Restore but how about it cannot be mounted or recognized by the computer and the window of the iPod updater will show a grey box of "RESTORE" and not allow you to click it.
    Recently, I am busy to fix up my daughter's iPod (Mac version) she just bought back from UK, also a friend's iPod (PC version). I have done every steps but still not able to get the iPods mounted, therefore, for the last attempt, I plugged the Mac's iPod (in DISK MODE)with my PC, interestingly, the windown pop up and showing the message (cant remember the exact wording) that the iPod can't be read, then I opened the iPod updater, and I saw the Restore key "light up" and allowed me to the Restore. Once completed, the iPod showed a "plug to wall AC adapter" sign, so I connected it with the AC Charger, and the iPod showed the bar and indicated the completion of the Restore process.
    Then I plugged it with my MAC, and got recognized and allowed me to do a Restore in Mac's version of iPod updater.
    Then, I connected my friend's iPod (PC version) with my MAC, (again make sure to put it in Disk Mode before plug it with a Computer), I saw the iPod's icon showed up on my Disktop, so I opened the Disk Utility, did a ERASE (format in MS DOS), once finished, I replug it with the PC, and opened the iPod updater and allowed me to do a Restore.
    It is worth to try if you have probelm with your iPod which is not able to do a Restore, what you need is check with your friends whether they got a PC or a Mac for you to fix up the problem.
    Good luck

  • If you have problems with your ipod turning off and charging look at this..

    I have to send in my 80gb ipod video because I am having problems with the battery,I charge it until it says charged and in ten min it shuts off and when I try to turn it on it says that there is not enough battery life to even turn on so i called it in and they told me that I have short battery life and that I have to send it in and they will fix it...If anybody out there has the same problem call it in and they will replace it...and if you don't have the number here it is:1-800-275-2273

    hey man I'm glad they replaced it...but if you look
    most of the problems are with the battery or the hard
    drive...I know that people make mistakes and I do not
    expect it to be perfect,but some people expect for it
    to be working perfect...and those people tell other
    people that there product was defective,and that's
    how Apple loose customers..I didn't say I was Mad...I
    don't know why your getting mad, I'm sorry if I
    offended you, I was just trying to give Apple advice
    sorry.
    Not true, most problems are with software, then with the earphone jack I quote from a letter that I recieved from a service manager that I worked with several years ago who wrote me two weeks ago and I am quoting. "Although the percentage is small it seems that if I had to put it into words I would say that software glitches seem to be the number one problem with the earphone jack a close second. Although both are not a major percentage. All in all it is a great product." Not mad,and sure that Apple will be far better off with your advice. Maybe they will move up from the number one maker of the number one mp3 player in the world and make some serious money with it now that they have it. But be advised that they do not monitor this for advice. You might want to try here http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipod.html
    and I will run out and buy more stock.

  • Ipod 30gb turns off automatically when battery is about half

    Hello,
    I have been testing my new ipod 30gb for a few days to see how much time I can let it play until thebattery dies. However, the last two times i did that (out of three trials)the ipod turn off automatically when the battery reached about half.
    My 'hold' button was on so I could not have touched it by accident and I left the ipod on my desk and no one touched it.
    Has anyone experienced this before or would anyone know what is happening?
    thanks a lot,
    JM

    Please, please, let us all know if this works. I for one have yet to find anyone who has this problem that has fixed it (and, apple, there seems to be quite a few of us, JUST RECENTLY).
    dying for a cure.
    First, as I stated, the "cure" for an old battery is to buy a new one. Many people have had faulty batteries replaced for free by Apple - if the health is low (<80%) and the cycle count is <300, that's a faulty battery that is likely eligible for replacement. Personally, I had one like that replaced for free (after my one year warranty was up, but within the 2 year battery warranty extension). Second, perhaps this is happening "just recently" because the MBPs have been out for a while now, and people's batteries (just like the people themselves) are getting older. Batteries have a finite life and a finite number of charge cycles they can take before they become unreliable - that's just the basic chemistry of a Li-based rechargeable battery. Third, if you're addressing your comment to Apple, this is not the place for that - go to the appropriate Apple feedback page instead.

  • How do I turn off automatic sync?

    I recently accidently deleted most of my itunes music library. Previously I had itunes set to automatic sync. All my music is on my ipod classic and I want to keep it. I am worried that if I connect my ipod to the PC it will automatically sync and will delete most of the music on my ipod. How do I turn off automatic sync and set it to manual sync? Is there a way of changing the settings without connecting the ipod? Would it be of any help if I had access to another ipod and could I use this to change settings. I would be very grateful for any help.
    Padraig

    To prevent auto sync, connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
    If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
    If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
    When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
    Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
    For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
    Find out how to do that here.
    How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
    For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    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.
    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.

  • How do I turn off automatic sing in Skype?

    How do I turn off automatic sing in Skype?
    i work with Windows,Mac& ipad..

    Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
    On Skype for desktop (Windows, Mac) just use "Sign out" from the "Skype" menu once. This will take you back to the Skype sign in screen. Next time you sign in from there just make sure you have the "Sign me in when Skype starts" checkbox not checked.
    On Skype for iPad:
    Open the Skype app settings from the iOS settings menu. I think there should be an option to disable automatic sign in.
