Ipod function jumping and connection errors

I have an iphone 4, when i was running the old software in it i never had an issue with ipod jumping, now with IOS4.2 in it its like theres a scratched CD playing and it jumps all the time, i havent changed anything and its only when docked, if i play via bluetooth its fine
Other problem i have is when i connect to an iphone ready stereo it comes up fine sometimes but others it comes up saying its not optimized for iphone version, sometimes it comes up and plays with no sound others its just not working and i have to reset
im loosing faith in it now, all my music is on it and i listen to it every day, im trmpted to go back to the 3gs and loose all the other problems with this phone too

I had the same problem after updating ITunes and the IPhone software to v.3.1.3. My IPod got frozen during the update and, after attempting to restore, I got the following message:
The IPod Touch "Ipod Touch" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (1604)
I checked Apple's support page that the More info button links to, and for this particular error code it explains:
Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, try these steps to resolve the issue:
1. Connect iPhone to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
2. Restore and wait for error 1604.
3. When prompted click OK.
4. Close and re-open iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
5. iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
6. Try to restore again.
I tried the above steps (after re-connecting the ipod to my PC several times with no significant result) and it worked! All the original content was synced back to my ipod, so it's all good!
Good luck with the above steps, hope it works for u too.

Hidden and Old IOXperts Driver Caused Software and Connection Errors

I had a USB webcam previously installed for a while and had installed IOXperts drivers.
Then I got an iSight, which worked fine for a while with iChat and Yahoo Messenger.
But when I tried to record digital video with my iSight and Broadcaster or iMovie I got "no camera connected errors".
Then they carried across to iChat where I got errors called "camera in use by another application".
Finally my iSight cam wouldn't work at all.
Anyway I suspected something was eating my iSight connection so I checked out the processes and that's where I saw the IOXperts driver running.
So I did a search and removed every file with the name IOXperts in it.
Then I rebooted and the camera and software worked the way it's supposed to.
I just wanted to drop this into the milieu.
By the way - would anyone happen to have an extra magnetic cinema display mount they're not using?

Installation and Connection Error with Desktop Manager and Curve 3G

I just installed Desktop Manager 6.01 and then tried connecting my Curve 3G to the system using the accompanying USB cable.. But there was a connection error.. so i did a bit searching on the net and went to (http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB00125) which gave me a solution to install m\y driver.. But when i try to manually install my driver, it shows an error "THE SERVICE CANNOT BE STARTED, EITHER BECAUSE IT IS DISABLED OR IT HAS NO ENABLED DEVICES ASSOCIATED WITH IT" now the USB is working because my phone is being recognised by the laptop and moreover in the device manager od my Vista, Blackberry is being shown... I cn see in drivers that Drivers have been installed but the drive Information such as Version, date is not available and the driver is unsigned...
Can someone tell me what exactly might the problem?? any reply will be appreciated..

I encountered the same issue, Not sure if you'll have the same results, but all i did was enable windows updates, and did an automatic driver update from the web (as in from windows updates) and after a reboot, all was back to normal.
hope that helps,

IPod Classic works and connects but does not synchronise

Hi! I have a 2007 160gb iPod Classic and I know at 8 years old you'd expect things to be falling apart, but I'm not ready for Bryan the iPod to die just yet and if I can fix him I'd very much like to
So the iPod has the standard age related issues of jumping a bit in songs and making loud whirring noises but I'm cool with that - it's characterful haha. The main issue at the moment is that the iPod won't synchronise on any software. I've tried to synchronise on several computers with both iTunes and Spotify and when I press the sync button this happens:
iTunes / Spotify does nothing
The iPod makes some noises and shows the 'Synchronising' screen for about 4 seconds
The iPod goes back to the 'connected' screen
iTunes sometimes freezes, or still does nothing
I've tried resetting the iPod, which was hard because iTunes kept freezing - but I did it! Made no difference.
The iPod is recognised by the computer/software and shows up in My Computer
It's fully charged
I'm using Windows 8 and the most recent iTunes
Help me if you can! Please! Thanks

Hi Brendan,
I am having a similar issue where I have recently updated my PC and managed to re install itunes and brought my library across however problem starts when I cannot transfer my latest music to my ipod classic.
Tried restoring it etc, it managed to transfer my latest music but delete my old ones and it wouldn't sync with my itunes library.
Please advise..
Thanks

IPod 40GB corrupt and unreadable error

I just got my iPod 40 GB serviced from HP, but when I got it back and I connected it to my iTunes, the iPod seemed to be loading fine, but I recieved an error on the iTunes screeen like this:
The file or directory iPodControl/Music/F06/07______mp3 is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chdsk utility.
What does that mean and what can I do to fix it?

Eri,
You would probably benefit from making a pot of tea and bringing it with you when you meet your new friend Da Gopha:

Ipod Nano, Disconnect and Connect while it's Physicaly connected.

I got a problem with every Ipod Nano I had. My computer was acting just like I would have disconnect it and reconnect it during it was connected. This was happening 2 or 3 times /min.
I found the problem. There's 6 USB 2 Ports on my computer. They are in group of two and located on different places (behind and on the front). This problem happens when My ipod was plugged with an other thing on the same pair of USB ports. The problem is solved when you connect only your Nano in one of the two port ... let the other USB port empty.
I hope I'll prevent peoples to send back their iPod...
--- En Français ---
J'ai toujours eu le même problème avec mes iPod Nano. Mon ordi réagissait comme si je déconnectais et reconnectais mon iPod de son port USB 2. Pourtant il était bien connecté. Ça arrivait 2 ou 3 fois par minute !
J'ai trouvé le problème et il se règle facilement. Premièrement j'ai 6 ports USB sur mon ordi, ils sont par paires de deux et sont localisées à différents endroits. La solution c'est que pour une paire de prise USB, il ne faut pas connecter autre chose que le Nano et laisser l'autre vide. C'est probablement par manque de courant que l'ordi réagissait comme celà.

Hyperion HSF Batches/Maps issue and connectivity error

Hello,
We recently migrated from 933 to 11.1.2.1 During our integration of Batches in HSF, when we try to connect to Essbase, we get a strange error:
Local////Error(1051293)
Login fails due to invalid login credentials
Test: HSF13617: Cannot establish database connection with 慃瑮牯獨瑦31/午彆剐䑏
When we try to use maps with Essbase, we don't get any error.
Has anyone experienced this before ?
Thanks,
Azmat Bhatti

Hi,
It is a bug in 11.1.2.1 version code for HSF. Oracle Development now knows it. I had a long chat / demo with them. They way they have HSF connect to Planning and the way the Batch are executed is different code.
They are looking at fixing this.
Thanks,

Why does my ipod keep disconnecting and connecting every half a second?

I had my iPod touch (4th gen, ios6) synced to a desktop and when I tried connecting it to my new laptop to sync it keeps connecting then disconnecting every half a second (flashing on and off) and will not connect at all. Do I need to do something with my old computer? I don't think it's something wrong with the cord because it connects to the wall just fine.

Different conductors/contacts are used for charging and dats. Thus, it still could be a bad cable.
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reboot the computer
- Try another USB port and cable
- Iphone 5 lightning port charging problem - SOLUTION!
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Try on another computer to help determine if iPod or computer problem
- If it works with other computer that indicates a problem with your computer. Try
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem with all compouters, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

5th Gen Ipod Classic Charging and Connecting problem. Battery has been changed and no improvement.

I have a 5th gen classic 30 GB ipod, that will not charge with an adaptor or USB 2.0 It also will not display the "Do not disconnect" when connected to a USB 2.0 conector and is not being picked up by my computer (Windows Vista). It was originally on a XP computer years ago. Battery change did not help. I have a lot of music I would like to get off of it, but my computer will not recognize and the new battery is draining down. Help me.

there is also the posibility of it being fried
have you considered sending it for diagnostics?
the online place I use (digiexpress) charges $25 for diagnostics and estimate,
if you decide to have it fixed, they then add the cost of parts, or ship it back unfixed.
labor is included in the $25 fee
My classic had 2 batterises changed by myself to no avail, until I decided to send it in to realize the board was fried. waste of money changing batteries, iPod went to the recycling bin. now i leave it to the pros and actually save $$.

3rd generation ipod shuffle voiceover and volume error

The voiceover on my ipod activates of its own accord, repeatedly, in the middle of songs (sometimes half a dozen times). It either gives me the name of the song or says 'playlist - one'. After this happens the volume of the music decreases to an inaudible level and I'm unable to increase it again manually (using the switch on my headphones). Sometimes it rights itself when the ipod has been turned off for a while but this time it seems to be stuck. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Or is it just kaput? Thanks.

It sounds more like your headphones might be bad; there is a short circuit in the control that's sending random signals without any button presses.
This is the 3rd gen iPod shuffle, so I guess the iPod itself does not have any buttons. If you can get it to play at a normal volume, you might connect a regular set of headphones (without any buttons) to see if there is still a problem with volume and voiceover. Or, if there is an Apple Store nearby, take it to the Genius Bar and ask if you can use one of their headphones to test it. If it works properly, you can just buy new headphones.

Ipod completely dead and updater error

my ipod is completely gone. I had the folder and exclamation point, and then tried to turn on my ipod. an apple appeared and my ipod screen then went blank. I have tried charging it, updating it and I followed the instructions. My screen is no longer working. I plugged it into the computer where it says "this device can perform faster" (as it usually does) but itunes can't find it, it doesn't show up in my computer, and my screen won't work any more.

You probably have a hardware problem with your iPod. Try turning it on and if you hear several loud clicks (louder than the scroller when played through the iPod speaker), you have a hardware problem. If you hear the noise or can't seem to fix it, you should probably take your iPod in to your local Apple Store.

IPod function fails and music stops

I was coming home from work tonight. When I was listening to music, not doing anything else, music would stop, phone would go back to main screen.
This happened at least a dozen times...in my pocket...in my hand...it would just stop...much like when safari fails (constantly!).
Any tips?

Reset the phone and see if it does it again.
