Ipod 30Gb Video sometimes play songs randomly.

sometimes when I go to get my Ipod, (Which I shut off when I left it) it plays random songs from one of the playlists I have on it. I know I shut the ipod off when I'm done each time, and I put the lock on. I'm the only one with access to it, so no one else is doing this. So when I find it is playing songs that I didnt ask it too. It never does this while I use it.
Anybody Know how to fix it.

nope, no alarms are set, nothing on the calendar either.
but I think the problem solved itself, because it hasn't done that in a while.

My iPod (30GB Video) wont play music out of the right earphone.

I've restored it and whatnot numerous times and I've tried more than 10 different pairs of headphones. What should I do?

If it is in warranty take it to the closest Apple Store and they will exchange it or send it in for service:

If it is out of warranty you can either buy the parts and fix it yourself or send it to a 3rd party for service. Try http://www.iresq.com for one site, or Google for more.

My 4G Ipod shuffle does not play songs in the correct order? Already restored to factory settings and no success.. Can anybody help me?

My 4G Ipod shuffle does not play songs in the correct order? Already restored to factory settings and no success.. Can anybody help me?

I FINALLY GOT IT! after months of relentless synching/autofilling problems on my 4th generation i figured out the solution.
this is what i did: plugged in ipod on off mode~>manually deleting my ipod's songs~>restored factory settings~>unchecked automatic synch~>made a new playlist with exactly the songs & order i wanted for my ipod (just dragged old playlists into the new one)~>then autofilled that new playlist into my ipod. came out like a charm! (before u autofill UNCHECK random add songs)
my ipod always ended up autofilling/synching my customized playlists wrong or it would automatically do my music library (and that was way unorganized), so this worked.

Moving iPod Shuffle contents to iPod 30gb video

How do I move all of my iPod Shuffle contents to my iPod 30gb video?

Aren't all the songs in your iTunes library? If so, just plug in the iPod.

My ipod nano 6 quits playing songs every few seconds

my ipod nano 6 quits playing songs and shuts off every few seconds. any ideas? don't know how to delete this, but i've found my answer from previous discussion. It was the headphone jack not completely in

Then back it up and do a restore. If that does not work and if you are still under warranty, call Apple tech support or take the iPod to your local Apple Store or an AASP.

IPod 30GB Video Problem

Hey, guys. about 3 1/2 months ago, my sisters iPod 30GB Video, stopped working, and its dead, which when we get a charge, and we boot up, it hangs on a Apple Logo, and we cant figure out whats wrong, Apple can fix it, but it will cost us, about 179 Dollars. and she doesnt want to spend 179$ on an already purchased iPod, ugh, Apple is losing its magic touch.

If you do not want spending another $180 for the iPod, then you might as well buy a new Classic since the problem on your sister's video won't fix itself unless you send it to Apple after you do everything that says in the Troubleshooting page.

6th gen iPod Nano does not play songs

Today, for no apparent reason, my 6th gen iPod Nano has stopped playing songs. When I select a song, the Play button changes to a Pause button, just as it normally would if the song was playing, but the track does not play, and no time elapses on the song progress bar - it just remains at 0:00. If I fast forward through the song, the song progress bar remains at whatever time I advance it to. I've pressed Play/Pause repeatedly to try and get the songs to play, but nothing happens other than the Play/Pause icon toggling back and forth between playing and paused.
This happens when I try to play any song or podcast on the iPod. It was able to play every song as recently as yesterday. All of these songs and podcasts play just fine on iTunes and on any other iPod, iPhone or iPad that I sync them to.
I have restarted the Nano several times. I've also done a complete restore of the Nano from scratch. I've got the latest version of iTunes, and all of the other functionality works just fine on the Nano.
Any thoughts?

Problem appears to be solved, thanks to the downtown Portland Apple Store Genius Bar. Apparently there was some sort of conflict with the permissions for the music (even though I own all of it, and all of the media played just fine on all of my other iOS devices).
To fix it, I went to the iTunes "Store" menu, chose "Deauthorize this computer" and followed the prompts. I then quit iTunes, restarted iTunes and double-clicked a TV show that I had purchased. This prompted me to re-authorize my computer, which I did.
I then synced a couple of songs, and they played just fine. I restored the rest of my playlists, and I'm happy to say that everything is behaving a-ok now. Phew!

IPod 30gb video randomly pausing...anyone know why?

My 30gb video will randomly pause and will only unpause if I hit the play/pause button. Anyone have a suggestion?

When you unplug your headphones the iPod automatically pauses, so it could be a problem with your headphones or possibly a faulty headphone jack. Try a different pair of headphones.

See these troubleshooting articles.
My iPod is sad.
What does this picture on my iPod mean?
Also, there is a pretty comprehensive post written by another forum member which is about the sad iPod icon. Be aware that it's quite involved and contains some info that will almost certainly void the warranty. If your iPod is still within the warranty period, you should use that option first.

1.1.3 - iPod Touch video podcasts play sound; only still image

For some strange reason, since getting the new update (but not the January update as I'm not going to pay £13 for that!) for my iPod Touch, video podcasts of trailers downloaded from Apple Trailers through iTunes play as sound files with a random frame from the video appearing as album art.
So if I turn my iPod Touch horizontal, the single image shows up at the end of Cover Flow as audio podcasts do when being played. However, there is no video at all. Normal videos play fine.
What the **** is going on?

Oh ... I'm so stupid. Sorry - when I wrote that they don't show up under VIDEO, I didn't actually check.
They are there and they do work. In fact, I think that as long as people like me remember which is which, having videos only play audio when played from the PODCASTS section is quite useful in some circumstances.
I've learnt my lesson.
Now if only I could get that update for free ...

IPod Nano Won't Play Songs...Stays on Menu

Hi! My husband's 2GB iPod Nano will not play any songs. It will charge and it will show the menu with Music, Photos, Extras, Settings and Shuffle Songs...yet it won't let you click on any of these. I have tried resetting it by holding the Menu and Center Buttons, and it will show the Apple logo and then go back to the menu it was on before. Any suggestions on what I can do now???
Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!

You may have a hardware issue and need to have it serviced, but before going that route, try this. Connect your iPod and in Device Manager or My Computer, right click on your iPod, then select disk management. Format the iPod (FAT32) and while you are there, assign it a different drive letter, try M or P or Z. Now Restore it in iTunes, fully charge it, resync it, and try again.
Is this iPod in warranty?

IPod mini and recently played songs

I have an iPod mini 6GB which I sync automatically with iTunes.. My playcounts and recently played-date/time is registered in iTunes as it should when I sync with iTunes, BUT 50% of the songs I listen to on the iPod, does not show up in my "recently played" -playlist on my iPod! The same playlist in iTunes is 100% correct though, it is only the iPod! It's like it doesn't know that those songs have been played (but iTunes does)! And this is a problem for me since I submit my last played songs to www.last.fm and I want to submit ALL the songs I listen to on my iPod, not just 50% of them! I have had this problem from time to time before, but in the last weeks it has been like this every day!
Does someone know what is wrong and what I can do about it? I'm so tired of having to play songs over again in itunes when I get home, in order to get them submitted to last.fm..

Make sure you have Enable live updating ticked in the playlist. (Get Info on the playlist)

IPod touch does not play songs in 2012 BMW iDrive

My iPod touch cannot play songs in BMW iDrive. It is recognized as Auxillary Front, and is not recognized as USB connection via Y-cable. The song stops playing after 5-10 seconds. However, my iPad and friend's iPod Nano works. Any idea?

What model iPod and iOS do you have?
When it plays with the iPod are y using the same connection?
Does BMW's site say that it works with your model iPod and iOS?
have you tried resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
