IPod function frozen after update to OS4

After updating to OS 4 on my 3G iPhone, all songs (and podcasts, etc) are present in my phone, but will not play. I select a song, it comes up as if it's going to play, the little play arrow comes up, and then I get booted back to the list of songs. I have reset, restarted and restored settings. No change. I have not yet done a complete restore from my computer, because it takes upwards of 4 hours to re-download all my music to the phone. But I will if there isn't another way. Any advice? Thanks!

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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipod is frozen after updating it

    just recently tried to update my ipod touch, using my computer. a message popped up on my laptop saying the update was complete so i took out the cord from the ipod. it then took me to a complete black screen with the apple logo and a bar that looks like a loading bar just underneath it but nothing seems to be loading. its been like this for over an hour now and im wondering how to fix this?

    Try putting the iPod in recovery mode and restoring or updating it again. See the following:

  • Can't replace APN after updating to OS4. It still remembers "Disable3G...."

    Can't chage APN configuration after updating to OS4. Already tried iConfiguration program but it does not work. The screen appear "Profile failed to Install - Only one APN configuration can be installed at a time."
    I guess it was from the profile that I installed from iphonenodata.com. I did not remove the profile before I updated to OS4. I can't see the APN field when I use my main number which is the Apple official carrier in Thailand (DTAC). I made a try by using AIS simcard as I can see APN input. I could change the APN and use GPRS. But once I replaced the sim card back to DTAC, the "disable" profile comes back again.
    Please suggest. Or do I need to reset as new phone? But .. then how can I get all contents back? I have so many data i.e. personal finance, health, etc.
    Many thanks,

    Now I solved the solution!!!!
    Refer to this post http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2470873&stqc=true
    To briefly saying, I deleted the file 8218978e4ab0a48035bb92653145a6be872ea858 in the backup directory. Then I restored from the backup (without backing up again during the restoration, if iTunes asks). As per "Loveturtle" in the mentioned post said, the file 821xxx contained the corrupted APN. If you want to try it out, read the post for clearer explanation.
    However, I didn't success at the first attempt. I did it twice on my laptop and once on my office PC, and succeed on the latter. Not sure what happened for the first two attempts. The results: everything's back (contact, sms, app data, photos), but music and video gone but I can sync from my iTunes later. Only annoying just the messy app icons arrangement. MMS not working if Cellular Data is off - but that's what it is supposed to be as an original setting device.
    Good luck!

The volume on my movies & everything else worked...even when I would go into "settings" and adjust the volume of the ringtone. I knew it was something simple...Thanks again..

  • Static when playing music via USB in car stereo after updating to OS4.1

    Greetings everyone.
    After updating my iPod Touch (3rd Gen) to OS4.1 I am experiencing static, scratching like or popping sounds when I am playing music in my car using the USB port. I do not get these noises when I am listening with a set of earbuds, only when in the car and connected via USB. I haven't yet tried bluetooth connection but will give it a shot tomorrow. Has anyone else experienced this?
    If any one from Apple is following this thread please give me some advice how to correct this problem. I suppose if I have too and bluetooth connection gives me the same trouble I will need to restore my iPod. Is it possible to go back in OS? I was using OS 4.0.2 prior without any problems.
    Thanks
    Dave

    Dave this is what i went thru this past week with Apple Tech
    Ipod problem
    Aug 19 2010 Purchased New IPOD McDill AFB
    Sep 15th 2010 Upgraded IPOD software from 3.1.3 to 4.1
    On Sep 16 2010,
    I notice that I tunes was skipping in my car using the USB connector. When I use the Audio output jack on the IPod the ITunes music did not skip. I hooked up a NANO to the USB connector in my car and the music played good no skips.
    Sep 17 2010
    I notified Apple Care and told them of the problem and they concluded it was an IPOD Problem. They issued a repair number (177988440) and notified Apple Distributer in Brandon, FL ( 50 miles from my home) to allow me to exchange the
    IPOD for a newer one Ser# 9E0344816K2.
    When I connected the new IPod to My Mac I was prompted to upgrade the IPOD software from 3.1.3 to 4.1. However, before I upgraded I notified the Apple Technician (Ms. Daylin Dat # 877-416-4271 Ex 2845) of the replacement and I asked if it was feasible to upgrade the IPOD to 4.1 since I believed the new up grade caused the problem.
    Daylin, said to go ahead and up grade the IPOD to the 4.1 version.
    When I completed the up grade I connected the IPOD to my car’s USB connection and the same problem occurred in the new IPOD.
    I took the new IPOD to Gettle Toyotta in Bradenton and asked if I could use one of their cars that has a USB connection and test out my IPOD and sure enough I had the same problem with the ITunes music (It was skipping).
    I notified Apple Technician again and they said go back up to the Brandon Apple distributor and get a replacement for this IPOD. I said no because it was a 100 mile round trip so they said were going to mail me a replacement.
    I returned the IPOD to Apple they did all kinds of in house test and said there was no problem wit it so they sent it back to me. So now i'm stuck with a IPOD that i cannot use with the USB connection in my auto
    Note I went on Toyota Prius forum site and there was a lot of discussion with the IPOD 3rd generation with IOS 4.1
    A lot of people are have this problem
    I notified Apple Tech and sent them a link to the Prius Form site.
    So that where it stands right now.
    By the way I hooked up the IPOD to a brand new Honda USB port and it worked great so the issue is with the IPOD IOS 4.1 and Toyota autos.

  • IPod wont work after update! iTunes wont see it! Help???!!!

    Hi
    After updating the updater my iPod is no longer recognised by itunes. When i plug my ipod in it says do not disconnect and is recognised by the computer, but not itunes. The updater window comes up saying i need to update but it will only give me the option to restore. I have done this. I have tried resetting also, but this doesn't work. I have uninstalled the updater, and reinstalled it. The problem persists. It comes up with an error when i do have the option to update. Now my ipod, when turned on, display the little apple sign, and then the folder with the exclamation, and shortly turns itself off. It has no songs on it now. I've only had it about 8 months so it should still be covered under the warranty, but ideally i would like to solve this problem without sending it off.
    Did you work out how to sort out yours? Or can anyone help me with mine!
    Please!!!

    "Did you work out how to sort out yours?"
    Did who sort out theirs?!
    What is the error message you refer to when you tried to update it.
    If you've seen this and it doesn't help then it may need service.
    Folder and !.
    There is something you can try. If your iPod is recognized in 'my computer' you can try formatting the iPod through Windows, then you would need to reformat it using the iPod updater. This proceedure isn't normal, but can be used in extreme troubleshooting circumstances.

  • Ipod rebooting during/after update

    My 30g video iPod is rebooting during or after I attempt to update. Nothing is saving to the iPod during these updates. I have done the 5 Rs, reformatted my iPod, as something was horribly corrupt. Now I have this new problem. I am at a complete loss as to what else to do to stop this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I had the same problem (the iPod kept rebooting after being ejected) and I went to the Apple store in Toronto to see if I was doing something wrong.
    The girl told me to send it back again to Apple... this only after I had just got it back from Apple the same week; they aslo said there was nothing wrong even though, and that it was my computer(s), despite the fact that the behavior was exactly the same thing again on multiple computers.
    It would only stop rebooting if I set it to disk mode while connected then restored the iPod (thus erasing all my files...).
    I'm going to send it back again and see what they say...

  • Files on 60GB iPod not found after updates to 1.2

    Before I restore just thought I would check. My iPod is conflicted as to what is loaded. Problems occur after update of iTunes 7.0 and iPod updater 1.2.
    Manually update is set. iTunes 7.0 says I have 6.0GB of Audio, 13.82GB of Video on a total capacity of 55.68GB iPod. However it also says I have 54.84GB of free space? All music and video files appear with the ! in iTunes, which means file not found.
    However, all titles of the files appear on the iPod as if they were still there but just not readable? From the iPod's settings, under About, it shows I still have 1250 Audio file, 98 videos but 54.84GB of space available. If I try to play files in a playlist, it just breezes through the album art and titles like it can't read the files.
    Reset, reboot and reinstall does nothing.
    iPod is unusable, should I wait for another update?
    Should I just restore and loose some stuff that was not backed up? (stupid on my part I know.)
    Or does anyone else know of a possible trick I could try?

    Applied Firmware Update 1.2.1 and it worked...
    Thank you Apple for finally fixing a major problem
    without ever acknowledging you had it...
    or even indicating what you update fixed when you distibuted
    it...
    I think apple needs some lessons how to provide support...
    without irritating its customer base...
    All you have to do is communicate...
    Respond with a message like "Known Problem" working on fix.
    would do wonders... And having an apple employee update
    the Discussions with an indication that you acknowledge
    your user community is having a serious problem and thank them for continueing to wait for a fix..

  • IPod keeps crashing after updated with IOS 4.2 Beta

    The iPod keeps crashing going back to the main screen with my iPad after updated with IOS 4.2 beta 2. Any solution? Anyone has the same issue?

    You will probably get several comments from some of the developers that hang out here about moving the question to the developer's forum. Not many of those using the Betas will comment on them on here due to non-disclosure agreement with Apple.
