Ipad screen freezes while listening to music

this problem has occurred several times since i upgraded to IOS5 and basically when i am listening to music and want to change playlist or genre,etc... the screen freezes and it will not let me change to what i selected.Whatever i'm listening to that's it unless i go and restore ipad to it's original settings and then it works well until down the road it decides to freeze and must perform restore again.
Please help.Thx.

Ok,i am replying to my question and i have found the solution!
I had set my auto lock to never and when i changed the auto lock to 15 minutes all my problems went away.It's been a week and my problem with the screen going black and not beign able to make any changes while listening to the music app has not come back.
Hopefully whomever reads this and has the same problem just follow my example and you should be fine.
Good luck

  • Keep The Screen on While Listening To Music IOS8

    While driving and listening to music, I prefer to have the iPhone's screen on ... just makes it easier to change songs without having to hit the home button to bring the player controls back up.  Is there a way to do this in ios8?

    Hi shafeen, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    You can turn off the Auto-Lock in Settings to keep you iPhone from going to sleep. Keep in mind that your battery life will decrease if your iPhone does not go to sleep. 
    iPhone: About General Settings
    Auto-Lock
    Locking iPhone turns off the display. Nothing happens if you touch the screen. You can still receive calls and text messages, an you can adjust the volume and use the mic button on the iPhone Stereo headset when listening to music or on a call.
    Set the amount of time before iPhone locks
    Choose General > Auto-Lock and choose a time.
    Have a great day,

  • Screen Savers That Work While Listening To Music

    HI, i'm having a hard time find a simple "screenblanker"(mabye text or a clock) screensaver saver that I can have on while listening to music. My problem is all the apple original screen savers, they all turn off when I ajust my music volume! And i dont want this to happen  Anyluck?

    I have a very cool suggestion for you:
    1: Download the free SoundStream screeensaver and install it, set it as your screensaver.
    http://pcheese.net/software/soundstream/
    2: Next open AppleScript Editor and paste this script in:
    tell application "System Events"
        if process "ScreenSaverEngine" exists then
            tell application "ScreenSaverEngine" to quit
        else
            do shell script "System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ScreenSav erEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background > /dev/null 2>&1 &"
        end if
    end tell
    4: Now Save the script "DeskScreen" as a Application to your Utilities Folder and drag a alias to the Dock.
    5: Hide the Dock (optional)
    6; Play iTunes and enable the "DeskScreen" and enjoy, uses your microphone and the sound to create effects.
    7: To stop the effect, just click the "DeskScreen" icon in the Dock again and it turns off. You have full use of the computer too.
    8: Works with most screensavers. Eats CPU/GPU, so you might want to cut it off when your using the machine for heavy duty programs.
    Enjoy
    and a bonus....free 3D game...

    Make sure your headphone plug is pushed all the way into the connecton until no silver is showing.  You will hear a click and feel it snap all the way in.

  • Iphone5 screen freezes while checking messages

    I have a problem with my iphone 5; it's quite common that the screen freezes while i'm checking my text messages... It doesn't stay that way very long, just a couple of seconds (like 10 sec maybe)... And then it goes back to normal...
    It perfectly works with other apps though... Has anyone had that problem before? Do you know what should be done? Should i take my phone to the Apple store?
    thanks !

  • My iPad screen freezes and will not switch off for at least 5 mins?

    my ipad screen freezes and will not turn off or  function for at lease  5 mins then just closes down

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

  • Screen freezes while recording video.

    Screen freezes while recording. I'm recording a video from Safari 7.1 using Quick Time Player 10.3 in OS10.9.5. The picture freezes after about an hour and a quarter. I'm using SoundFlower to capture the audio; the audio continues to flow and record while the picture remains static.

    Hi again, I have found a solution for this! Go to the video in your iTunes library, and right click. Go to "Options" and then uncheck "Remember playback position". Once I did this the videos all played fine on my iPod.. they just won't keep track of where you left off. Hope this helps you both as well!

    My Ipad2 2G (64Gb) freezed while updating OS5 yesterday, without finishing updated to OS5, the USB cable was unplugged to the PC itunes. Now ipad2 freezes with ipod logo on the middle of screen. If Ipad2 is plugged again with ITunes, iTunes can not identify Ipad2 with message "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because an unknown error occurerd (OXE8000065).

  • ITunes freeze while listening radio through Apple TV

    Hi there.
    I've got problem with iTunes. It's freezes while I listen internet radio through Apple TV. It happens after about 15-20 minutes. Music continue plays but iTunes freezes and do not open. All updates to Mac and Apple TV has been installed.

    Hi Dreanmachine1,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    When you purchase a song on your Apple TV, it is available on all of your devices. There are a few reasons why you may not see the song on your iOS devices or your MacBook Pro. They may not be set up to download purchases automatically, or you may not have been signed into the iTunes Store.
    I'd suggest trying to download the purchases on your other devices using the steps in this article:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    You may also want to check your automatic download settings, so you can receive future songs automatically. See this article for help:

  • HELP!  I am missing calls while listening to music on my iPhone 5.

    Device: iPhone 5
    Completelty upgraded to iOS 7.1.1
    Apps set to automatically update
    Carrier: Verizon
    Location - Atlanta, GA
    This use to happen occassionally, but has become a more frequent issue as of late. When I am listening to my music player or watching Netflix/Amazon on my phone I am randomly missing phone calls.
    For example...just this morning, my wife called me and said "are you OK, I've called 4 times." My reaction was once again annoyance and disbelief because I was simply driving down the interstate listening to my music. The phone never stopped the music to answer the call on her first four attempts and then the call apparently went through on her 5th attempt.
    This has happened at least once EVERY day this week. I have missed calls from my friends, nanny and most importantly about 10-12 calls from my wife.
    It really does appear to be completely random because once this week my wife called while I was driving into work listening to my music and the call came through on the first attempt. My music paused, I clicked ANSWER...no problems at all. The call lasted a few minutes, we hung up, and my music automatically started back up. 30 minutes later she called me back, while I was listening to music and the call never came through to me. My music didnt stop, my phone didnt ring and I do not have a missed call on my call log. She however showed me her call log and sure enough it took her 4 times to reach me for that second call.
    Sometimes it only blocks one attempt on her part...other times it can be 3 or 4.  Needless to say, this is becoming a very annoying issue.
    I do not have the "Do Not Distrub" feature activated.  I have NEVER used that feature.  Here are the settings, which I presume are the default setting, under the DND menu:  Again, these must be the default setting because I have not touched them.  Ever.
    Manual - turned off
    Scheduled - turned off
    Allow calls from - Favorites.  I do not have any "favorites" programmed into my contacts.
    Repeated Calls - this is turned ON
    Silence - this has "Only while iPhone is locked" selected.
    Also, my phone will periodically, randomly tell me I have a voice mail but not make a noise and not ring at all.  Text messages are also being ignored.  No sound, no buzz, and then all of a sudden I get abanner notification of having a voice mail/text message.
    Again, it works MOST Of the time with no issue. 
    Any thoughts on this? 
    Anyone else having the same issue?
    Could this be a bug with iOS 7.1.1???
    Thank you,
    Ben

    I skimmed through this very long post but from what I read, this sounds much more like a coverage issue with your network than a device issue.  I have not seen or heard of this issue before and I do not have this issue personnally and & I use the music app quite frequently while working in the yard.
    The DND feature should not be a factor at all if you're sure it's turned off.  I always recommend restarting your phone by holding down the home button + the lock button for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Once the phone reboots, do a test to see if this has helped to resolve the issue.
    If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.  Then, test it out again.  Post back if neither of these solutions solve your issue.

  • Dr-bt50 Issue while listening to music

    Hello
    I have a problem here whit my Sony dr-bt50.
    While am playing music on my Nokia 5800 Xpress Music the music is "lagging" alot.
    If im thinking right the phone isn't strong enough to hold the line? It is realy annoying when am at work and listening trough it!
    I hope Nokia will release a new update to fix this thing

    I wouldn't assume the problem is with the phone. Lag on A2DP bluetooth headsets is often reported on a variety of phones and headsets, and it may not be a problem with the phone or the headset but the A2DP standard itself.
    I've never heard a full explanation for this, different people come up with different theories, but one thing you can try is using lower bit-rate music as that may be easier for the connection to cope with. (When I used a lower bit rate music collection I never had any problems with A2DP.)

  • Phone Volume buttons doesn't work when you receive a call while listening to music

    It is surprising to see such a silly and annoying bug. I was listening to music at high volume. Then received a call when the phone was unlocked and on music player. Now the fun started. I cannot reduce the volume by the outside volume buttons where as the volume of voice stays same. Very annoying dis-pleasurable experience. Don't know if it is common on other iPhones but it happened consistently on iPhone6+.
    Workaround - If we lock the phone and use the volume buttons then it reduces and increases sound successfully.

    The point I am referring to is already when I picked the call the controls didn't switch to Phone App. The whole time Phone app is active on the screen volume is not reducing at all. Quirk of the system - there is no soft volume control on the phone app hence user has to use the Hardware side buttons only. When phone app is in focus and in control the volume controls should work. This is definitely a major bug.
