I-Pod Keeps Restoring the original format and deleting everything AnyIdeas?

Okay. This is what happened about a half hour ago:
I went to pick out a new album to listen to, and suddenly it restarted itself. Or actually, the screen didn't go blank, it just had the small apple icon in the middle of the black screen for a few seconds, then started back up again.
Next, I went to find the album again, thinking that it was just one of those normal "problems" that usually don't happen again. Then it DID IT AGAIN. i repeated the same actions, hoping it would finally stop. It didn't.
Then, soon after, it DELETED ALL OF MY MUSIC AND ARTISTS AND ALBUMS!!!
I've only had the 4 GB Nano for about a month and yeah I didn't expect it to do that.
If it helps any, everytime the I-Pod restarts, the clicker is clicking again (I always hsave the sound of it off) like when you first buy it and it asks you what language you want it in (also like when you first turn it on after buying it)
Can you please help me? I am freaking out!!!
Thanks!!

sorry for my bad english... you could try to restore to the main version with itunes, or upgrade it to the last software version.

  • On the iPhone 5s, performing any edit on a black and white photo will render a strong purple tone. This occurs in any app under the current iOS. Sadly, every photo must then be re-edited to restore the original black and white.

    Hi everyone, I'm the one from the example above posted by @frankensinatra and I can confirm having the same problem.
    But I want to add something. The problem is not only related to black and white but to every picture, and it can be worse or not depending on the range of colors involved. Apparently, there is a shift between some RGB value that is going to remove some green producing a magenta look.
    I've started contacting some developer about this problem and some of them is trying to understand what's going on.
    In my case, the problem came up when I bought the new iPad mini Retina. I didn't have this problem with the previous iPad mini. Same OS for both devices.
    The photo you see in the link above is a perfect example of what happens just going from one app to another and saving to the camera roll. In that case, the situation doesn't change if I send that picture from within the app by email, or to another app using the "open in..." feature. It keeps being purple. And the problem can be reproduced all the time.
    Have some of you noticed the same?

  • Can you help me to retrieve my applications. In iTunes I accidentally clicked the Restore button in the Summary screen. It restored the original settings and I lost all my applications and don't know if it is possible to retrieve them.

    All apps on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch should be in your iTunes library on your computer.
    You can re-download all 3rd party apps and you won't be charged again for a purchased app as long as you use the same iTunes account to re-download the apps that was used to purchase the app originally.

    Do this with iTunes on your computer. After you have re-downloaded every app one by one, select Sync Apps under the Apps tab for the device's sync preferences along with selecting the apps below that you want transferred to the device followed by a sync to re-install the apps on the device.

  • My macbook went back to the original format and I cannot access anything from my desktop, website, etc

    I restarted my macbook today and when I signed back in, it was completely messed up.  There are question marks in the dock and nothing is loaded that is suppose to be there (my photos, files, music, etc).  Is my computer junked or what happened?  I am a teacher and it is property of the school so I am not sure what I can do.  Please help!!!

    ? in the Dock is not something tragic, as these are links, not the originals. First of all, determine if anything is missing in the original locations: apps must be in Applications folder (or in any other folder you may have added), files in Documents or where you put them etc. You may remove those ?’s by dragging them up from the Dock. If all original files are there, you have not lost anything, it is just a strage behavior of the system. This is strange and difficult to reproduce, so you must give some details, if need be.
    Once an app is started, it automatically adds its icon to the Dock, right click on it, then choose Keep in Dock. You must repeat them with all apps you wish to have there. Alternatively, you may simply drag their icon to the Dock, and a link will be added, even if they are not active.

  • My question is Itunes related.  How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from alphabetizing the song list created. I wanted to keep the original order, and somehow everything was alphabetized without requesting it.

    My question is Itunes related.  How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from automatically alphabetizing the song list.   I had a specific order of songs that I wanted, and Itunes somehow automatically alphabetized them.  Is there a way to turn that feature off, and/or get them back to the original order?   I also noticed that once a playlist has been created, I cannot manually changed the order of the songs from my desktop..  Any suggestions?

    That's just the sort order. It's displaying the media alphabetically because you have clicked on the NAME column near the top of the iTunes window.
    Click on the little triangle above the column of numbers (usually on the far left side of the main iTunes window) and the media will sort in the order in which you added each item to the playlist.
    You can easily reorder songs within a playlist: Click and HOLD on the song you wish to move, then drag-and-drop it wherever you like.

  • My yahoo.mail email window has spontaneously minimized, thus making it impossible to read without a magnifying glass......how can I restore the original format?

    The email display has "shrunk" into the upper left corner of the window. I can view the same email info without any problems with Safari. I prefer the Firefox server/format, so I would really appreciate any help in resolving this issue. Thanks

    Please update to Firefox 32 ([[Update Firefox to the latest version]]) and then try reading [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]]

  • I have the original IPad and it keeps shutting down in all apps and programs.

    I have the original IPad and it keeps shutting down in all apps and programs.  Does anyone have a solution for this problem.

    First and periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The iPad 1only has 256 MB of memory.

  • How do I eliminate the new Facebook "timeline" and go back to the original format

    how can I get rid of the new "timeline" on Facebook, and go back to the original format ? I was told how to do it in Chrome, and it worked, but I prefer to us FIREFOX. thanks
    I am using the newest Firefox and running Windows 7

    You are correct. It is not fair to blame Firefox for something the idiots at Facebook have done. I have not been impressed by all of the "new" features or changes they have made over the short 2 1/2 years I've been on Facebook. This was just the last straw. Too bad I was fooled into thinking that the latest change was fixable. With all the posts I've read expressing hatred of the new Timeline you would think they would have gotten the message. Perhaps they want folks to stop using it. Or perhaps they think that folks will scream for awhile then knuckle under. Just like the politicians, huh? I don't NEED Facebook. Thanks.

    You do not tell us what OS version you have. In OS 10.8.2, do this:

    Select the language you want. Mine is set to Canadian English.
