HT1689 ipod turns off when wifi is turned on

I have an Ipod touch 2nd generation and it works fine, ive had it for a while now. But recently all of a sudden if I use anything on it, it stays working, but the second I press the switch to turn on wifi, the ipod shuts down and goes into a black screen. What should I do?

Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing is 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.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod
if still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • New telus 3gs turns 3g off when wifi turned on.

    I received a warranty replacement 3GS from Applecare for a Telus 3gs that died. I have sync'ed the new phone and have everything up and running. the only problem, and it is a big problem, is that I lose 3G service and am unable to make or receive phone calls once I turn WIFI on. If I turn WIFI off, athe 3G network returns. I've tried resetting the phone and resetting the network. Still no luck. Any ideas?

    Reset your phone then, hold the home and the off button down until the apple symbol comes up. Also reset your network settings, Go to settings, general, reset, reset network settings. If still no luck, then do a restore in itunes.

  • IPod switches off when the light goes off.

    When I play music in the car on my Nano, I switch it on, using shuffle. After 40 seconds or so the light of the Nano goes off and the music switches off. I restart it sometimes 8 or 9 times. Suddenly it continues to play, also for a 3 hour drive and doesn't switch off again.
    I can find no explanation for this. Any ideas?

    Hi Jackie 1,
    Since I'm not sure which iPod nano you have, you might want to start here:
    iPod troubleshooting basics and service FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1382
    which has a link to more specific help at:
    iPod Support
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/
    Selecting the iPod nano (7th generation) for example, then the troubleshooting section shows this article:
    iPod nano (6th generation): Music stops when display turns off
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3700
    Verify that you have firmly connected the headphones to the headphone jack on your iPod nano.  The cable should be flush against the iPod with no visible gap.
    Hope that works for you,

  • Why thoes my ipod trun off when i take it off the charger?

    I Havent Used my ipod in like 3 months, before i stoped using it , ti was working fine. Now it wont stay on unless its pluged on to the charger. I leat it charge all night and still it wont stay on HELPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How long have you left the Shuffle to charge? It can take up to 30 minutes for the iPod to show any signs of life after charging and in some cases still requries a hard reset to bring it back to life. See this article for instructions on resetting your iPod Shuffle.

  • IPod shows 'Charged' when unplugged 24x7??

    This started a week or so ago. I noticed my battery was dead even though my ipod wasnt in use. After charging the battery to full I noticed the issue. When the screen 'powers off' I can see a faint 'Charged' with the battery picture. My guess is this is draining my battery with the screen being on.
    I did a restore with ITunes and a manual reset but the same thing. Any ideas? If I go to Apple will they say I'm SOL for warranty?
    Thanks guys

    would restore (have reset and put into disk mode and didnt help)but ipod cuts off when unplugged from car charger even tho it says its fully charged. When I plug into computer like the updater/restorer tells me to. It doesnt recognize my ipod. Ipod doesnt bring up "do not disconect" message either. After a min or so the ipod will blink from the black screen with an apple in the middle to the screen with the sick ipod message with the ! and the apple support web site beneath it and then back to just a black screen.

  • I was updating my ipod and i lost wifi, so i turned off my ipod, and when i tried to turn it on it went to the normal apple logo then flashed and went to a pink screen. Ive tried restoring it, but it hasnt worked. PLEASE HELP

    So i was updating my ipod earlier yesterday, i kinda steal wifi from the neighbors so it was pretty weak.... i lost wifi (i think) because it stopped loading, so i turned off my ipod. And when i tried turning it on again it did the apple logo then went to a full out pink screen. Ive tried turning it back on and off a billion times, and sometimes the screen colors will change. I recently just tried restoring it like 10 times and usually itll just interenwrupt the restoring process. By the way, wh i plug it into the computer it doesnt recognize the device. I had to put it into recovery mode. Pleasehelp, this ipotd is my life. I cant take it to the apple store because its badly cracked, and ive had it for about 2 y and a half years. PLease help.

    Hi-
    I had the same thing happen to me Thursday night, and I just got mine right 30 minutes ago (and it is now Saturday am). Like you I repeatedly tried to restore it (by holding down the home key and powere button at the same time; then plugging it up to my computer and trying to get it to restore through iTunes). My computer didn't initially recognize my ipod either. - One thing- be sure that your battery isn't dead/dying. If it is, charge it (it should charge-mine did), then start the process of restoring it again. Make sure when you hold the home and power keys down that you are linked to iTunes.- You will eventually get a screen that has the itunes icon it, with a usb cable underneath it. At that point your computer will recognize your ipod, and you'll be able to restore it...This will take a LONG time.- Good luck.

  • HT1414 I had my ipod touch off and when I tried to turn it off the best I could get was the apple logo than that went out.  I can't get it come on at all.  It was working fine earlier and nothing has happen to it.

    I tried to turn on my ipod touch and the best I could get was the apple logo and even that went out.  I tried charging it with no luck.  It had charge yesterday when I turned it off but now I can't get anything at all.  Any suggestions???

    If the reset does not work try the remaining items:
    - 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.

    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • 4 year old PC turns off when new iPod Nano is plugged in

    Hi,
    I have an older PC running Windows XP. I just bought a new 8G iPod Nano. When I attempted to plug it in to my computer for the first time, the computer abruptly turned off (it did not go through the shut down process) and I was unable to turn it back on for several minutes. Now the compuet is back on and appears to be functioning normally. Can anyone help me with this problem? I have not yet tried to plug in the iPod again. Thanks.

    I have the same problem and wondered if it was loosey goosey headphones which were just cheap 10 dollars buds.  So are you saying I should get new ear phones that fit tighter?
    That would be my guess....Here is what Apple has to say about the problem. 
       http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3700
    My guess is that it is a compatibility problem with older or aftermarket ear buds.  My daughter has a 6th generation Nano and does not have this problem but keep in mind she is using the ear buds that came with the 6th Generation Nano.  With the replacement program they are not sending new ear buds.  I just did a test with my daughters 6th Generation Nano using an old set of aftermarket ear buds I had in my desk and I was able to duplicate your issue.  I then used the ear buds from my Iphone 4s and did not have an issue with the Nano going to sleep and the music turning off.
