HT201406 Why is my ipod turning on aND off by its self

my ipod is some how going crazy. My ipod goes crazy when iam charging it. And now out of no were it just started to turn off and on by it self.

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
- If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • When I use AC Adapter, Ipod turns on and off

    I will try to explain this the best I can, here goes...
    When I use all the battery in my ipod, so that it is completely dead, and I attempt to plug it into the AC adapter, the ipod turns on and off. I can hear the hard drive clicking on and off. It will not stay on; it just keeps doing this. However, if I plug the ipod into my computer, it will charge.
    Do people think that this is a problem with my ipod or with the AC adapter?
    I'd appreciate any feedback or if people have had a similar problem, let me know.
    Thanks so much.

    If restoring  "as new" using itunes on the computer fails then you willneed a repair. Restoring backup may cause issues so test as new first. Contact apple https://expresslane.apple.com/

  • IPOD turns on and off

    All the Ipod does is turn on and off, on and off and then a large battery appears in the window. Then turns on and off a few more times. Reseting the Ipod doesnt work. Any suggestions before it meets my wall?

    Quick update:
    I brought my iPod in. They told me there was nothing they could do to fix it. They simply gave me a brand new one and sent the other one back to Apple in Cupertino, California.
    FYI: I think that either the database got corrupted or the hard drive got damaged. I was using it with ephPOD on windows 98. If I were you i'd use it only with windows 2000, windows XP, or MAC OS X.

  • My LED light turns on and off on its own, how can I fix this?

    I dropped my phone today and my LED light on the back by the camera turns on and off randomly. I've dropped it before today and it just now started doing this. How can I fix it or do I have to bring it in to a Apple store?

    The phone is probably broken. You will have to take it to an Apple store for repair or replacement.

  • After fully charging and syncing, Ipod turns on and off indefinitely. Help!

    I just bought an 80g Ipod. I was very excited to upgrade. I followed the charging/syncing instructions to a tee. As soon as I ejected the Ipod and disconnected it from the computer, it began blinking on and off (the Apple image shows, then it goes black, the image returns, and so on). I've tried to reset the Ipod and it simply says "Disk Mode" and freezes. I've exchanged the Ipod twice and am now on the third - with same results. Any idea what the problem may be or how I might be able to fix it? Thanks for the help.

  • IPod turns on and off, won't boot up or reset

    Hi all,
    I recently pulled my old iPod out of the closet, where's it's been since it stopped working two years ago. When I plug in it in to the AC and try to start it up, I get the Apple logo, but then it disappears--only to come back again. It just keeps doing this, even if I try the reset steps. It sounds like the drive is starting up and then shutting down repeatedly. I'm afraid that this might be something serious. Any help would be appreciated.

    Don't buy an ipod people!!
    I bought one 2 years ago. It broke 1 year later. It was replaced by apple (warranty), but again a year later that one broke. "Outside warranty" says apple.
    They told me I should get it repaired at my own cost but this would cost more than a new one.
    Thats 460 Euro down the drain.
    Go for Creative or Zune!

  • I have a Mac Book that I purchased in 2009 and all of my system updates are good and it keeps shutting off and when in use it keeps asking me if I want to shut it off... Then it keeps turning on and off on its own. What doI need to do?

    Please help!  I cannot figure out how to get the computer to stay on!

    With the information provided, I can only guess. My guess is hardware problems, either bad motherboard or RAM.
    You tried running the Apple Hardware Test from the install DVD for you Mac.

    Thankyouuu
    it looks like that when it is locked and when its unlocked it looks like this

    Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
    2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
    In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
    If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    Good luck

  • Why does my ipod keep turning on and off

    so my ipod 5th generation died so as i was charging it it turned on and i saw the apple logo and then it went to my lock screen. i unlocked it and connected to my wifi , as i connected my ipod turned off so i just letf it to charge . then i noticed it turned on showed the logo and turned back off. and it kept doing that for a good 15-20 minutes. i decided to unplug it and try to turn it back on but then it showed that i had to charge it and so i did and it kept turning on and off again . why is this happening ?

    Try:

    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
