HT2729 My ipod 4th generation is no longer playing videos. It plays the sound only with message "TV connected- This video is playing on TV"?

My  IPOD 4th generation has stopped playing videos. It will play the audio only and displays message "TV CONNECTED" "THIS VIDEO IS PLAYING ON THE TV". Don't know how to re-adjust video setting to what it was prior to this happening.

Do you have an Apple TV? An iPod  can AirPlay to an Apple TV.
Can you provide a screen shot of what yo are seeing? Also what specific app is it?

  • Traveling with my iPod 4th generation

    Hi,
    I am going away on a trip. I will be visiting England and France. While I am away I will be taking my ipod 4th generation with me. I have an adapter and a wall charger. But I am concerned that the voltage in France and England will be to high for my ipod take. I am afraid it will fry up. Do I need a transformer or will it be ok? Also, I am not using an apple wall charger. I am using another wall charger brand called "wireless". Does the wall charger you have affect the way your ipod will charge? I spent a long time earning money to buy my ipod and I don't want it to be ruined.
    Thank You!
    - Applegirl509

    Look at the wall charger. Most say good for 110-240 volts and 50-60 Hz. If so then no problem.
    A few are only 110-120 volts

  • HT1430 We tried resetting my ipod 4th generation touch using above directions with no luck.  Any other ideas?

    We tried resetting ipod 4th generation using Apple instructions.  It will not turn on, but shows the charging symbol, with little to no battery power no matter how long it charged.  Any ideas?  We've had this for less than 5 months.
    Thank you!

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • HT1338 just what is the new software upgrade 10S 6.16. EVERY TIME I PUT NEW SOFT WARE ON MY IPOD 4TH GENERATION TOUCH IT MESSES UP MY IPOD IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. USUALLY IT CUTS IT OFF OF WI FI AND IT WON'T CONNECT!FI

    I am afraid to download the new update software ios 6.1.6. Because everytime I let it put new software on, It makes my Ipod 4th generation mess up one way or another. Usually it makes the wifi go off and I cannot get it back on. Then I can't even use the ipod!  I am having a problem now with it shuffling. Do both red x's one on each corner right top and left top need to be on for it to shuffle?  Thank-You; Sherry  PS, I do not have a Mac. I have a dell window 7. and I don't want windows 8. I have heard nothing but bad about it!

    Nope, though it did allow me to get some missing songs back onto my iPod. That's something. But neither "Back in Black" or "Dirty Deeds" show up anywhere on the Touch. Could this be because iTunes has no deal with AC/DC?
    Quite frankly, at this point, I'd really rather not have the "ease of use" of iCloud attached to the iPod. It's not like I change my playlists that much. It would just be nice to get what I want onto my MP3 player. Not sure which one it was: iCloud, Music Match or the Air Port but the only real result of all the $ I plunked down is seeing all of my Wife's 231 Christmas songs popping up on my laptop. Really don't want them here. She SURE AS **** is sick of seeing all of my stuff on her computer.
    Thanks again.

  • HT4061 ipod 4th generation stuck on start up screen, won't do anything (the black screen with the silverish apple). Help?

    This morning, i tried turning on my ipod (4th generation) and it is stuck at  the black start upp screen (the screen that has the siverish apple when you have first turned on your device). It has been stuck like this for about a half an hour now, and I'm not sure what to do. This would be the second time in at least three months I have had problems with it (around December it went into recovery mode and i had to reset it to the factory settings). Is there anyway I can handle this at home, or do i have to go into an apple store to have this fixed? Also, I plugged it into my computer and it didnt show up in itunes like it did last time. Thanks! (I'm pretty sure its the IOS 6 because i have not updated it since then).

  • Is it possible to trade in a ipod 4th generation for one of the new ones?

    Is it possible to trade in an ipod 4th generation for one of the new ones?

    If you purchased it within the last 14 days you can return it for a full refund and then purchase the 5G. Otherwise Apple will only give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod and purchase a new one.

  • I can't update my iPod 4th generation to ios 6

    I can't update my iPod 4th generation to ios 6... I've updated my iTunes to 10.7 checked my security software tried restoring my iPod and then downloading on my device and my laptop. When I connect it to the computer I try downloading & updating and only downloading.. Still nothing I get error messages, can't connect to update server messages.. I'm just thinking about giving up... What the heck do i do !!??? Will the local apple store do it for me and what's so going to be on the 5th gen I may just wait and get that one. Please help.

    Are you sure you have a proper Internet connection? Make sure your iPod is connected to your computer, and you have an Internet connection.
    Don't even get me started on the iPod Touch 5G, I actually own an iPod Touch 4G, and I've considered a lot about if I should get the new one. At first look, you might be sold by the features Apple has on their iPod Touch page. It has a taller screen that's a 4-inch Retina Display, has a much better camera with a flash, and comes with iOS 6 preinstalled with Siri. But the real breakthrough comes with the new connector. It's called Lighting, and it's much smaller. But if you have a dock connector that comes with some cars, and maybe a set of speakers or docking stations as alarm clocks, I encourage you not to get the new one. The usage of your old connectors requires a $30 adapter, which is a ridiculous price. And who knows how secure the adapters will be with your docking stations? I personally think Apple has crossed the line. If they are to put a new connector with their new products, they should ship with an adapter in the box, at least at first. This is why I strongly encourage you NOT to get the new 5th generation iPod Touch.
    Sorry if I went a little off-topic there, but I wanted to get my point across. For your updating to iOS 6, I reccommend you check out other discussions in the support comunity, and see what other contributors have to say. Or go on Google and search your error messages, possibly someone might've already went through the same problem as you did. I really hope this helped!
