IPod Crashes while syncing and fully charged

Hi,
My Ipod crashes when its fully charged and syncing to Itunes. Anyone know how to fix?
Thanks,

Well, I tried the five R's. My iPod still crashes out after about a 1/4 of a gig gets synched up.
I get an error message "unexpected error unable to write to ipod -124" or something like that.
What's strange is my iPod will be fully charged. Then, in the couple minutes most the iPod says its low on battery. -- I had a battery replaced only about a year ago.
Has anyone come across this problem?

  • IPOD freezes while SYNCING - and then gets file error

The ipod just freezes while syncing now, it has been restored numerous times, but 2 not much avail, i can get one or two albums on there, then everytime i try and sync the ipod just freezes, and has to be reset. Every TIme i plug the ipod into my vista laptop it says, the says. SCAN AND FIX, ( because i couldnt get anything else to work i tried this ) and this is what vista told me
    http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/9118/vistafixesipodlu5.png
    i was like woah, so i proceded to restore the ipod then it seemed to work, for a day. then went back to the freezing while syncing, then next time i plugged in the ipod, windows said the disk needs to be formated before it could be used, so i tried that ( cos itunes was doing sweet **** ALL ) and windows couldnt format it, and neither cos HP USB FORMAT Tool. so i reset the ipod, plug it back into vista, and behold, SCAN AND FIX COMES UP, so i click it, it fixes it, but only loads 1 album before it freezes while syncing again, i have the screenshots,it took 11 screenshots, to get the FULL MESSAGE, that vista chkdsk gave me, there was thousands of these "BAD LINKS IN LOST CHAIN at CLUSTER XXXXX Corrected" messages
    im currently listening to Three Days Grace on the ipod, works GREAT, except if i try and put more then this ONE album on it, it freezes while syncing, and gives me the unknown file error. SO any ideas if this ipod can be fixed, cos itunes cant do anything, im assuming there is physical unrepairable damage to the HDD of the ipod and will need replacing if this ipod wants to be in full working order again.
    The ipod is NOT under warranty either, so does any1 know where in Australia, it be fitted with a new HDD? Thanks
    kind Regards,
    Hayden

  • IPod Crashed During Sync And Now Its Dead...

    Hi guys,
    While syncing my other ipod touch to my computer, i don't know how it happened, but the ipod crashed, and then froze. iTunes said the sync had completed, but the ipod still displayed a frozen 'sync in progress screen'. I hard reset it because it was the only thing that i could do. Now, all that is displayed is an apple logo, however, it does show up in itunes.
    Is a restore required? Please advise...

    I fixed it. Yay for me.

  • Accidentally ejected ipod nano while syncing and now it's frozen.

    The iPod screen is now stuck on the "don't eject it now" admonition. It won't turn on, off, or do anything--it's just frozen. What happened was I minimized iTunes while it was syncing and that seems to have caused it to try to eject. How do I get it to wake up? Thank you for any help.

    Try doing a hard restart on the iPod (how depends on which generation unit you have).  You may also need to connect OT to the computer and do a restore.

  • IPod touch 3rd generation crashed while updating, and now it won't turn on, and it wont charge or be recognized in iTunes; it's been like this for 3 days now. Please help,..Thanks!

    iPod touch 3rd generation crashed while updating, and now it won't turn on, and it won't charge or be recognized in iTunes because it's completely dead; it's been dead for 3 days now. I've tried pressing home/sleep buttons for reset but nothing works, I've tried using different usb ports to charge it, but nothing seems to work. Please help asap. ...Thanks!(:

    After charging the iPod for half an hour, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

    Hi Cjroyle,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I understand that your iPhone will not boot past the Apple logo on the screen.  To troubleshoot this issue I'd like you to please follow the steps in the article below.

  • Is that normal? My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min. then level battery is 68.5%. (use voice over to read battery level)

    Is that normal? My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min. then level battery is 68.5%. (use voice over to read battery level)

    I do not understand what "My iPod touch G5 standby after fully charge 2 hr 58 min." means.
    Also % battery is not accurate for an iPod. It fluctuates.

  • HT1386 My Ipod and Ipod touch both sync and update latest CD music added to Itunes, however when I connect my Iphone it wont sync my most recent CD addition to iTunes?

    My Ipod and Ipod touch both sync and update latest CD music added to Itunes, however when I connect my Iphone it wont sync my most recent CD addition to iTunes?

    I have my iTunes settings to prevent my iPod from synching automatically.
    Open iTunes (without the iPod Touch connected) , go to "iTunes"--->"Preferences"--->"Devices", select the box that says "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from synching automatically", select "OK".
    I would then close iTunes and then reopen it.  Verify that the settings you just changed are intact.
    Log into the iTunes store and update any Apps that you may have purchased. 
    Connect the iPod Touch via USB with iTunes open.  You will see the icon on the left side under "Devices" as normal, however it will not automatically sync.
    Click on the "Device" in iTunes and from there you can manually adjust all the items you want to sync and then select sync when you are ready.
    I sync mine this way because I feel it gives me more control over the syncing process.  Also, I always log into the iTunes store first, check for updates to my Apps and then connect the iPod to manually sync.
    So, to me, I guess that perhaps is a way to "force" the sync but in a controlled manner.
    I hope that helps.

  • MBP constantly switching between charging and fully charged, what's wrong?

    My MBP is constantly switching between charging and fully charged. The mag safe connector flashes orange for a bit and back to green. The same goes for the status in the tool bar. Originally I thought it was the mag safe so I switched it up to my backup mag safe. I was fine for about a day until the same problem appeared. Any thoughts?

    If your MBP is one of the early 2007 models then most likely it has the same battery problem that others have had, as did mine. Look at the support page on apple.com for info on these issues.

  • Crash while Syncing - Touch IOS 6.1.6 and Spotify App 1.8.1.8

    I have been struggling with the spotify app since the previous version. In fact it has been a nightmare since the new look came out.
    I am also running the specs as above. I have tried all the suggestions - including re installing my firmware through iTunes.
    The app seems to crash while trying to sync playlists for offline use. It will sync a handfull then crash - and I have to keep restarting the app every time (i have just over 2 thousand tracks that now need re-downloading.) it is taking forever!
    I have tried Uninstalling/Re-installing the app
    I have tried a Hard Reset on the Ipod
    I have tried changing the language and region settings
    I have tried over a different WiFi Network (no 3g connection available)
    I have tried reinstalling firmware via itunes
    I hope the developers pick up on this and try launching a version that works on older devices.
    cheers
     

    I'm running into the same issues. The only difference is that I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 8.1. I had about 2000 songs synced and suddenly the app crashed, even though the phone was locked. When I restarted the app, all of my music was no longer synced and all attempts to sync them back results in the app crashing.
    I've also tried reinstalling it, to no avail.

  • ITunes crashes while syncing iPod 5th Gen.

    I have begun encountering massive errors when attempting to sync my 5th Gen. iPod to iTunes 7.5 on my HP laptop. Almost immediately after the iPod is detected, a Vista window pops up, stating that an error has occurred and iTunes must close. Several times after this has happened, my computer has automatically restarted itself, several times going to a blue screen where it appears that major disk analysis takes place. I was once able to stop syncing and keep iTunes open with my iPod attached; I restored it to see if that could help the issue, but nothing has changed. I have reinstalled both iTunes and Quicktime, and I have tried one of the 7.4 versions of iTunes as well. Nothing is helping. Any ideas or suggestions would be immensely appreciated.

    I have a Dell Dimension. I have just upgraded from XP to Vista with a clean install. 5th Gen Ipod no longer works with iTunes 7.5 esp when syncing photos - it takes 5 minutes per photo and crashes after 5 photos.
    Having Googled this it seems there are many similar issues

  • Powering off while plugged in and fully charged...

    I have no idea why this is happening and it just started tonight. With my laptop both fully charged and plugged in the computer completely turns off with no type of warning and no signs of anything wrong when it is turned right back on. My power adapter and my battery are less than 3 months old. The only thing that has recently been changed is I upgraded from 512 MB of RAM to 2 GB and loaded several Adobe CS3 applications, but it has worked fine since the changes which were about a week ago. Could it have anything to do with that? Any other ideas?

    Verify that the new RAM is seated properly. If it is, take it out and reinstall the original RAM to see if the problem is still there. If the problem goes away, it is either a problem with the new RAM or it wasn't seated properly. If the new 2GB is two 1GB modules, insert them one at a time to try to isolate the shutdown to a specific module.

  • IPod will not sync, and will not burn cds...

    1.) When I connect my iPod to the comp the syncing process starts. The little wheel my my ipod's name starts spinning, then slows down, then freezes and itunes stops responding. I have to hit crtaltdel to manually shut down itunes. Then, I have to click on the little icon in the lower right hand corner that says "Safely Remove Hardware" to disconnect my ipod w/o messing it up. Fortunately, my ipod is okay, but I have not been able to update it since the beginning of May.
    I have recently downloaded the latest 2 versions of itunes and the latest Gear program.
    After I had problems, someone suggested downgrading to a lower version of iTnes. When I tried to downgrade to a lower version my comp would not let me do it. Also, I have recently installed to a new program, Alcohol 120%, and that burns dvds fine. I did install it after I had been having problems w/ itunes and my ipod.
    2.)I can play all my music on my iTunes on my comp, but when I go to burn a cd, I get this message "Disc Burner or Software Not Found."
    I have read other threads, and this is the info I can provide so far (please bear in my I am not that comp savvy).

    hmmmm. you've got rather a lot of burning software entries in there. (it looks like you've got some kind of Roxio product installed, as well as itunes and Alcohol 120%.)
    by way of experiment, try the technique described in the following document (remember to take a backup of your device filter registry keys first).

    do you still get the itunes message with just the iTunes filters in place?
