Ipod 4G with bad memory

Hi all,
First time poster, so please be gentle. I'm having a problem with my 4G Ipod with colour display. When I finish using it I hold the play/pause button until it goes into standby and put the lock on. Normally, it fires straight back up when I turn the lock off, but I'm finding that if I don't use it for a couple of days it stays dead until I press the menu button. Instead of returning to the last played track, it goes to the apple logo and whirrs and clicks for a while before going to the first screen, as if it's been reset.
There is plenty of battery life, although the battery meter does seem to wander about a bit as it gets lower(goes from green into red and back into green) and I've tried both reset and restore without a change. No problems with syncing and it behaves as normal when I connect it to the computer.
Hope someone can help.

That sounds normal to me. If I power off (stand by) the iPod, or just let it do so by itself, and turn it back on soon, it resumes where it left off. If it powers off and I let it sit much longer, then it does the equivalent of a shut down. This is to conserve power. When it is in stand-by mode, it is like computer sleep, and is still using power to maintain that state. But if the user does not re-engage within a set time period (and I don't know what that time is), it powers off more completely so that the batteries are not drained entirely by the time the user tries to use it again a few days later (that would be annoying).
My 4th gen iPod works that way. Recent iPods like the touch may be different in this respect.

  • Is anyone having problems with a bad memory leak once iOS 6.1.1 was installed?

    My phone has a bad memory leak and after about 4 hours of being on the memory will be so low that ir resets the phone.

    There are a number of reports from people with VW vehicles. Try removing the phone from the list in the car. Then, remove the vehicle from the list in the phone. Do a reset on the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone reboots, put the devices into discovery/pairing mode and see if they will connect. Otherwise, you might do a search of the forum looking for issues with VW vehicles.

  • 4G iPod with bad blocks

    Hi there,
    I hope someone can give me a light on what's going on with my 4G iPod. I started noticing it siped some musics that work fine on iTunes. And sometimes it would block. I restored it (through iTunes) a couple of times without solving the problem. Then I used Micromat's techtool pro and scanned the disk founding it had bad blocks. I erased the disk with disk utility (writing zeros) and tried to complete the Techtool's scan. It failed so I believe the bad blocks weren't all mapped.
    The scan went for three days in a row and I wondered if there is a quick way to simply map the bad blocks and use my iPod again without expecting the song to skip.
    Thanks in advance,
    JP

    I have come across this with many Ipods.
    A droppage or even just old fashioned wear and tear can cause deterioration of the Hard disk, It would be nice if the iPod Firmware had a "Smart Mode Engineering" that could be used to access the Hard disk directly (Via USB I/O)
    the iPods would need to have powered support for various revisions, and a max operation time limit. (Running a disk check tends to wear the drive out further)
    In this way, a diagnostic map could be made for the disk that the Smart mode could use, and work around the disk errors.
    Whatever songs end up going bad, with bad sectors, could be flagged, considered unusable and the song re-loaded to a different point on the disk.
    Yes, you lose space, but it's cheaper than replacing the unit, or having it repaired.
    Just my two cents.

  • Memory issues - kernel panics / system freezes with 1Gb Memory Card

    I've recently updated my PowerBook OS to 10.4.7 and now more recently 10.4.8.
    Prior to this, i had been running a pair of pc2700 memory cards (1x1Gb + 1x 512Mb) bought from crucial technology on 10.3.9 with no problems.
    During the upgrade, i experienced complete system lock ups and kernel panics. pulling the 1Gb card resolved the problem.
    So i thought it could be duff memory (it happens). I ran hardware checker, both long and short tests, ran memchecker from single user and there was no reported errors although i was still getting crashes.
    I returned the memory to crucial and they replaced it and then i went to reinstall memory in the pb.
    Once reinstalled, problems re-emerged. Both System profiler and iStat pro show both memory sticks as ok. both are pc2700 DDR.
    i tried just the 1 Gb stick in alternate memory slots. with the memory in the lower slot i was getting system freezes, in the top slot i was getting kernel panics.
    I've pulled the 1Gb and reverted to 768Mb (512Mb lower (crucial)/ 256MB (apple) upper) and i'm back to normal.
    Now what?
    As my mac is getting on, i'd like to get as much RAM in it as i can, ideally the 1.5Gb /2Gb which it can support. I'd be suprised if it could be the memory stick being duff (2 duff in a row?), its not a faulty memory slot as system profiler is showing that its full.
    Any suggestions? Anything to do with how 10.4.8 handles the memory addressing?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    PowerBook G4 1Ghz FW800   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I've had that problem, too. I found out that it was one of my memory modules that were broken.
    I'd say pop back in your other memory module, then get out your PowerBook DVD and stick it in Restart your PowerBook while holding down the Option Key on your keyboard until some buttons start to show up on your screen.
    Select the Hardware Test one, then click the Arrow button. It'll boot into a utility and you can run a hardware test that includes checking your memory.
    If any of your memory is bad, it'll show up like "**ERROR ERROR**" and give you a code.
    After you've identified the hardware problem (hopefully just the RAM), then you can go to Crucial's website and fill out an RMA request to have the memory replaced. I'm pretty sure Crucial has a life-time warranty on their memory products.

  • Bad memory modules or motherboard??

    I rearranged the cables in my case and now I'm not able to boot using dual channel memory configuration. It worked before just fine!
    I've got two 512MB twinmos twister pc3500 modules.
    D-bracket indicates bad memory module if I try to setup dual channel using dimm 1 and dimm 3. I've tried other dual channel combinations with the same result.
    I can only boot using dimm 1! using the other slots get me the bad memory module status on the d-bracket. I've tested both mem modules in slot 1 and I am able to boot so it seems the mem modules are OK. Or are they OK for just single channel config?
    Do I have a faulty motherboard or are the memory modules bad?

    Christ! what is it with these MSI boards?
    The 2 848P's i tried both worked fine with a single 512mb strip in, but put another in and the D Bracket Light 2 stays and the PC fails to boot or reboot properly - it's totally hit n miss.
    See my thread for the unbelievable amount of problems i've had with the 848P! :
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/e_service/forum/index.php?threadid=31192&sid=
    I'm RMA'ing both 848P's as i've tried everything, now even the forum moderators say rma the boards so i know its nothing trivial happening here... They're even going to get MSI to look at my thread - so hopefully they will take notice!  
    Am i to take it that the 865 also has similar problems, ffs!
    Is there a stable MSI mobo available that will take 2 DDR's sticks or not?  

  • Old iPod mini with a new iMac using a different iTunes library

    I just bought a new iMac (never before owned one). I have an iPod mini with a bunch of music on it that I downloaded from a library on an IBM, which I no longer have. How can I transfer all of the music that is currently on my iPod mini to the library in iTunes of my brand new iMac? I can't seem to find any options that allow me to do this. It looks like I can only erase my iPod memory and replace with the Library on my iMac, which is currently empty. Please tell me that I don't have to re-create a new libray on my iMac.
    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks for the information. I just got done with the iPod. I was able to use Senuti to dowload all of the contents of my iPod into iTunes and then update my iPod mini's software and reload all of the songs back onto the iPod. It was freakin' awesome!!
    You really saved me a huge headache and a boatload of time!!
    Thanks again!!!

  • Ipod classic with a new and unique problem

    <post edited by host>
    I have read a number of help topics, forum posts and apples suggestions in fixing problems and have had no luck so I had to start a new topic.
    - Ok, A while ago i was using my ipod one fine 'sunny' day (if that's relevant) and it just went bleap, dead. Wouldnt do anything at all. Eventually when I got it home I reset it and the apple logo would come up whenever I pressed any button, this is still the case. After i reset it, the folder with the lightning image appears then the apple logo and thats all it does, even after charging it. PS: I am using it on windows XP, but have a Mac laptop also if I can use that to my advantage somehow, it doesn't read on there either atm.
    When I try plugging it into the computer it does not come up in itunes. I have reset the ipod, reset the computer, updated itunes (which is exactly the same every update, in terms of anything useful), and have also gone into the drive manager and had a look around.
    When the ipod is plugged in, it comes up 'do not disconnect' then after a while there is a Tick and it says 'ok to disconnect'. meanwhile there is a battery with a lightning bolt moving as though it is charging.
    In the device manager, the ipod appears when I plug it in, but then within about 10 seconds it dissapears and I notice that the ipod has resorted back to the apple logo, almost as if it has self destructed. But then somehow it ends up getting back to the screen with the big Tick and 'ok to disconnect'.
    Now, one time when the ipod appeared in device manager I managed to open it before it dissapeared and it said no driver was installed. I tried to reinstall a driver but obviousely it could not recognise that I had the ipod plugged in.
    I hope I have remembered everything. Please somebody help!

    See the following helps in your case ..........................................................
    If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
    Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
    A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    For old and other versions of iPod updater for window you can get here
    http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
    F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
    Intermediate Level
    A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
    B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
    For Mac computer
    1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
    2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
    3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
    4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
    5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    For Window computer
    Go to folder “My Computer”
    Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
    Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
    Now select “Format”
    Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=501330&tstart=0
    C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    Advance Level
    A. Diagnostic mode solution
    If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
    You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
    Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
    iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
    The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
    iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
    You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
    Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
    B. Format your iPod with a start disk
    I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
    If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
    Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk
    http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
    http://www.ifixit.com/
    http://www.rapidrepair.com/shop/g4-ipod-parts.html
    Just in case that you are at the following situation
    Your iPod warranty is expired
    You don’t want to pay any service charges
    You are prepared to buy a new one
    You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
    Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
    You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
    Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
    Last Resort Level
    1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
    In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)

    2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
    Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.

    Finally, I read a fair comments from dwb, regarding of slapping the back of the iPod multiple times
    Quote “This has been discussed numerous times as a 'fix'. It does work, at least for a while. In fact I remember using the same basic trick to revive Seagate and Quantam drives back in the mid to late 1980's. Why these tiny hard drives go bad I don't know - could be the actuator gets stuck in place or misaligned. Could be the platter gets stuck or the motor gets stuck. 'Stiction' was a problem for drives back in the 80's. Unfortunately the fix can cause damage to the platter so we temporarily fix one problem by creating another. But I know of two instances where a little slap onto the table revived the iPods and they are still worked a year or more later.”UnQuote

  • Do I have a bad memory slot and what to do about it.

    About 3 weeks ago when I came down to my computer, intel imac purchased may 2006, in the morning the screen was black and power button was lit, keyboard did not work and the computer would not wake up from sleep. Rebooted and the power light would come one, no chime or screen power up, and the keyboard would not respond (ie caps lock key would light up). Tried multiple reboots and pulling everything connected out but nothing worked. Next on the torubleshooting list was to remove the ram. With both chips removed, 1gb and 512mb, I would get the flashing powerlight when starting up. I placed back in the 512 chip which is in the slot furthest from the front and the same symptons of just a solid power light with nothing else was exhibited. Removed the chip and placed the 1gb chip back into the slot closest to the front of the computer, everything worked fine. Startup was normal etc. Next, I removed the 1gb chip and put it into the slot towards the back and it would not work, next, moved the 512 chip to the front and all is well. Therefore, I think I have a bad memory slot given the torubleshooting procedures. Is this a correct assumption?
    Here are my questions:
    1. Are there any software solutions that will tell if the memory slot is indeed bad?
    2. Does this sound like a hardware issue or is there an update to the core system that would fix this problem?
    3. In order to get this repaired, would I take the imac to the apple store?
    4. The computer was purchased in May 2006, if I purchased an applecare protection plan, would that cover the repairs or does it need to be purchased within 90 days of the computer?
    Thanks in advance.

    I think that sounds like a firmware update gone bad. Apple page I found says: "In the rare case that your computer displays a black screen after start up, you will need to restore your computers firmware back to factory condition before you can apply firmware update."
    Dont know, but sounds like it.

    may be worth a try.

    NOTE: If you have not kept a copy of your iTunes Library from 9.0.1 before upgrading to 9.1, then the 9.0.1 version cannot open the 9.1 version of the library. (That's one problem with backing-up everyday!!)-- Fortunately I also keep a 1 month backup on yet another external HD. Not a bad thing to do! So I didn't get my full current library back, but most- and I now have iTunes 9.0.1 which has not crashed- YES!

  • Aperture has a bad memory and has gone confused

    Aperture 3.0.3 has a bad memory and has gone confused... or is it just me?
    I have several referenced files that are quite confusing.
    This is what I see in list view:
    Version name: filename
    Filename: filename.cr2 (Canon raw file)
    Camera model: iPhone (doesn't shoot Canon raw)
    The same file in Locate referenced Files-dialogue:
    Version name: anotherfilename
    Filename: anotherfilename.jpg (not Canon raw anymore)
    Both views show the same date. The image is shot with my Canon.
    Are you confused? I am.
    The bad memory is frustrating. Almost every time I start Aperture I also had to reenter my preferences (thumbnail size, external editor etc). This is discussed in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2565307&tstart=0.
    I have some tother issues too. Aperture doesn't help me anymore. It prevents me from doing what I love - making pictures.
    I have rebuilt and repaired the library.
    I have followed Troubleshooting Basics http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805.
    I'm out of ideas and would really appreciate if you can help me.
    Thanks!

    Thanks!
    No, I'm no importing RAW+jpg and I haven't been editing metadata manually in the library. I don't even know how I would do that. Any suggestions about which appliccation it could be? Photoshop? Painter? Mail?
    I have other issues too and that makes me think that there had to be something else too. Face detection is running wen it's turned off and number of versions doesn't show when the settings is set to Show number of versions.

  • 975x PowerUP with four memory banks filled

    I'm planning to purchase another two G.Skill memory sticks, and I want to know if anyone have had problems installing four memory banks, and if this has limited in any way the board's overclocking (I don't want to step down from 3 Ghz...)
    Thank you.

    Thank you.
    I should have an answer for you in about a week when I have my 2 kits of Mushkin 2048 MB, XP2-6400, 4-4-3-10 Dual Pack (2x 1024 MB) 996523. The Mushkin support team guy told me that I would be able to reach 850Mhz or higher with that memory because they have Micron D9 chips, so I hope he's right about that
    I know there not G. Skill, but the ProMos chips on those modules aren't bad overclockers either.
    I know that my 4 x 1GB GEIL PC2-6400UDC modules are crappy overclockers because they have lousy memory chips...

  • Xcode 3.2.1 and ipod touch with firmware 3.1.2

    Hi,
    Recently my first application was approved.
    I wanted to start testing my app also on ipod touch. I bought an ipod touch with firmware 3.1.2 (7D11).
    I had to upgrade my OS to 10.6 (snow leopard) and i also downloaded the Xcode 3.2.1 .
    My problem is that my ipod is not supported. I've created the proper certification and there's a green light next to my ipod icon in the organizer window in xcode.
    The message i see is : Xcode cannot find the software image to install this version (and the "restore ipod" icon is grayed out).
    What do i do ?
    Thanks.

    Ooops.. sorry. my bad.
    provisioning profile problem.
    sorry.
