IPod 80gb turns of by itself and won't turn on, iPod 80gb turns off by itself and won't turn on

My iPod is acting a little weird lately. It completely turns of all by itself and won't turn on back again. It turns on only when I connect it to the PC. I taught it was the problem with the battery but, it happens even when it is fully charged. I was watching some videos right after I had it fully charged and all of a sudden it turned off. I tried turning it on but, it didn't work and I connected to my PC, the apple logo showed up slowly and started working as usual. Please help me to sort this out.

Try a hard reset the next time this happens to see if that helps. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, you may want to consider restoring your iPod via iTunes to rule out software corruption.

I have a new iPad Air. Can I use plug in USB camera reader to have a load of movies etc on an external hard drive and then plug and play so to speak. I'm off on holiday and haven't got the capacity to have everything on that I'd like for the kids

Can I use a plug in USB camera reader to have a load of movies etc on an external hard drive and then plug and play so to speak? I'm off on holiday and haven't got the capacity on the iPad to have everything on that I'd like for the kids.
So basically I want a hard drive with X amount of films etc on. Can I then watch them on my iPad?
Hope this makes sense.

External HDD won't work.

I upgraded my iphone 4 OS yesterday to ios 5, today morning my phone is not working, i am not able to click any button and also its not allowing me to switch off the phone and restart. Anyone having similar issues

i upgraded my iphone 4 OS yesterday to ios 5, today morning my phone is not working, i am not able to click any button and also its not allowing me to switch off the phone and restart. Anyone having similar issues?

From my post on what seems like the same issue (found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21087892#21087892)
Take the following steps:
1) while connected to wifi, toggle off then back on the Show All Music and iTunes Match options shown in my original post. Important: I did this step before, but wasn't connected to wifi, and my music disappeared. Subsequently, I connected to wifi and turned off and then back on those options and everything came back though it was grayed out and my only option was to download music.
2) To get streaming over cellular back, go into Settings>General>Cellular and scroll down to the "Use Cellular Data for:" options and make sure the iTunes option is set to 'On'
The above steps will bring back the streaming capability which seemed to go away when you update to 6.1. It didn't ACTUALLY go away, but something about the update toggled off the iTunes option in step 2 above.
I did a final test by turning off wifi, opening Music app and selecting a song. It played successfully without downloading! Crossing my fingers, but I think I'm good to go!
Hope this helps!

Yesterday double clicked home button and all of my apps disappeared; cannot shut off i-pad, and syncing it does not restore apps or enable me to use it again. Help!

See if this fixes things.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

I have a 4s and i am trying to get my photos off my phone and back onto my computer. any advice?

I have a 4s and i am trying to get the photos off of my phone and back onto my computer.... i am not able to delete these photos (only the ones in the camera roll can i delete ) if anyone has any helpful tips they would be appreciated. thank you

Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process cannot be deleted direct on the iPhone.
Photos transferred from the computer are optimized for viewing on the iPhone – the original resolution of these photos is reduced, and the reason transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported. Photos transferred from your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data
Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process are removed from your iPhone in the same way. To remove all photos that were transferred from your computer, deselect sync photos under the photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by sink.

DVR670KU Turns off By Itself - Won't Stay On or Play Anything

I purchased the DVR670KU in August and just tried playing a VHS tape in it today. As soon as I put the tape in the unit turned off. Now when I try and turn it back on to play the vhs, to switch to dvd and play a dvd or to just use the tuner and watch a TV channel the unit powers off almost as soon as it turns on. Any ideas about what is going on? I've power cycled the dvdr/vhs unit, tried several times to play a dvd or eject/play the vhs all without success.
Please help!

I have a Toshiba DVR670KU. When a VHS tape is inserted everything functions normally but only for about 5 seconds. The tape goes in, plays for a few seconds, stops, and then the DVR670KU shuts off. When the unit is turn back on the tape ejects.
I like the unit and want to repair it. I suspect that the problem is a simple one and would like tech notes on how to fix it.
I removed the cover and visually inspected as the tape was inserted. There appears to be an IR LED and IR sensor that trigger some mechanical functions. The problem appears to be that the mechanics that are triggered by the IR sensor are not holding.

How do I get custom ringtone off my iPhone and into iTunes

I recently reformatted my laptop and now I need to get my ringtones off my iphone and into itunes so I can back them up but when i check sync tones, iTunes is telling me it will erase all tones on my iPhone 4 and replace with tones on current iTunes library (and there are no tones on current iTunes library.) Is there a way to save my ringtones that Ive created that are only on my iPhone?

Bump? Does anyone have any words of wisdom?

The iPod touch 5 battery won't charge, the iPod battery gets hot and doesn't turn on... What is wrong? Can photos and data be retrieved?

The iPod touch 5 battery won't charge, the iPod battery gets hot and doesn't turn on... What is wrong? Can photos and data be retrieved?

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- 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.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. I suspect a hardware problem due to the hotness. If iTunes can't see the iPod then uor only hope if to contact a data recovery company for getting data off the iPod. If you have an iPod backup you can restore another iPod, iPhone or iPad from the backup to get the data that was in the backup

My ipod is stuck on a white screen after i tried to update IOS and turns on and off by itself :/

ok so last night im textin my sis with this app and i thought she was done texting me so i decided to update my ipod to IOS 6 and it took FOREVER just to download it idk why but anyways it said i needed a power source or a battery level over 50% so i just charged it with my wire nd wall charger. but the thing is about the wire is tht it teeds to have a problem charging it has to be in ceartain postions or shape for it to charge so when i plugged it in it had the charging icon at the top so i clicked install nd when i clicked install it said verifying update or something like that but after a couple seconds when i clicked it my sis sent me a text and i acciedently clicked lauched but eventually it shutdown to countine the update. so i waited for about 5 mins or less and i find that the little bar at the bottom froze so i shut the ipod off using the home and the power button. but then when i pressed then power button to turn it back on it showed me the apple logo then the screen dims just a little bit then the screen goes to a light blue and im like ***? so i shut if off again the same way i did the first but this time it turned on by itself and repeated the cycle untill i shut it off. so when ever i shut it off, i turns on BY ITSELF shows the logo for like 5 sec dims, then goes to a blue screen. but i tried repeating the cycle this one time nd at first it faded to white. then again i tried this time it when to blue then it changed to black very qucikly. but now i just left it on a white screen because it was the most common color of frozzen screens when i looked at gogle for answers. and now im soo ****** cuz i had just deleted alot of pics and some apps for the IOS 6 update -___-

You may have to do the following
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

My iPod cannot turn on, however it can when it is on my iPod dock. It won't even sync into my computer. Once I take it off of my dock it automatically turns black and I can't turn t on. How can I get it back to normal?

My phone turned off by itself and won't turn back on.

My phone turned off by itself and now it will not turn back on. I have tried both a soft and a hard restart and the only thing I get is the Dual Core Technology logo and it just stays on. I tried to do restart in regular and recovery mode and neither works. Is there a way to restart it without going back to factory settings????

I'm sorry your phone won't turn on jessesealey! I'm sure this is beyond frustrating. Do you know what function was used just before powering off? (text, email, internet, etc.) Has the phone been dropped or wet at all? Even steam/mist? I know a Hard Reset is an inconvenience, so you can try charging for 3-4 hours and try powering back on. If that still doesn't work, a Hard Reset is what will need to be done. http://vz.to/Yg68Th

I have a new MacBook Air which keeps turning off by itself and now won't turn on at all...

It's been working fine since I've had it but yesterday it kept turning off by itself and then within minutes off turning it back on it would do it again. Also the little box kept popping up asking if I wanted to sleep, restart etc as if I had pressed the power button. I tried to turn it off completely and now it won't turn back on at all. If I plug the charger in the green light comes on but nothing happens on the actual MacBook itself. What do i do ?
