Ipod keeps reseting when transfering media

If anybody having problems when trying to transfering music from itunes into the ipod, the ipod will reset and it will not allow to the transfer to occur. Try everything , took it for service at a apple store , got it replace already, it came back the same.
If anybody having this problem , please give me some advice. I have not been able to enjoy my ipod for half a year since i purchase it.

OK...yeah, resetting is all you can do for this one...you did properly, right? 1. toggle hold button and 2. press center button and menu button simultaneously for 6 to 10 seconds
if that doesn't work, you gotta go to the genius bar...

  • My iPod keeps reseting!

    OK, real problem. My iPod keeps reseting when I connect it to a computer! All my files stored on it (I used it as a flash drive) are still there, but inaccesable, my computer says the disk doesn't exist. What is going on? And might this fix my video problem, too? (after the 15 minute mark, my movies always extend their time up to the 900s and skip frames at the speed of light. Entertaining for the Nostalgia Critic.)

    Your problem is too complicated for me to understand, so try the basic 5Rs.

    Or bring it in to Apple Genius store.
    If you are using it as a "flash drive" which is another way of saying, you put it in DiskMode. You can't see the files in standalone mode, or if coonected to iTunes, it wont list your files. Only Window explorer can list your files.
    Have a nice day!

  • Ipod keeps resetting at language selection HELP!

    My ipod keeps resetting at the language selection and i can't do anythink except recharge it. How can i get it to work again.

    Welcome to the discussions Patrick,
    It may or may not have said it on there but there is one number for apple support. It is 1-800-APL-CARE. You dial this number during buisness hours and follow the steps given. Since you just bought this (a video ipod right?) you have one year or 90 days of phone and tech support. As for turning the ipod on and off it is the play/pause button and the center button. Center to turn it on and play/pause to turn it off. It is confusing at first yes, but you should get the hang of it. The applecare representatives will/should take care of you.

  • My Apple TV2 keeps resetting when watching NETFLIX. This started about one week ago. I can watch fine from my MAC. Both are hardwired to my Aiport network..

    My Apple TV2 keeps resetting when watching NETFLIX. This started about one week ago. I can watch fine from my MAC. Both are hardwired to my Aiport network.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Ipod keeps reseting itself

    so after i had the trouble with my ipod last week and ended up replacing it at the apple store for a small fee of $32.05, this new ipod is giving me more problems.
    so this new ipod keeps reseting itself. for example, i connected it to my computer and the "do not disconnect" sign won't come off and it's not connecting to itunes. so i reset the ipod. it finally connected and then i ejected the ipod no problem. so then from now on, it resets itself, leading me to restore the ipod. so i restored it, and the problem still occured. and then i reset it again and now it's working fine.
    in conclusion, does anyone have some suggestions/comments/idea for this situation?

    that's EXACTLY what is happening to me. i plan to go back to the apple store very soon because i've run out of ideas as to what to do to solve this dilemma. i'm glad though i'm not the only one with this problem although i am sorry you have the problem too lol.

  • IPod keeps reseting itself while updating

    I've had previous trouble with my 60GB iPod Video, but I think this is the last problem... I am trying to update my iPod but while its updating the iPod keeps reseting itself over and over again... please help!!!

    There's nothing you can do but bring it back to the store. Mine does the same thing, it just goes to show that Apple is so busy pushing these new iPods on us and releasing them too soon that the customers end up having to deal with their hardware failures---all because they didn't take the time to test these!!!

  • My ipod keeps resetting itself when i plug it in to the computer, now what?

    Basically, I plugged my ipod into my laptop as usual and itunes sprang up with an error message that i can't quite remember. I just remember that it mentioned a file corruption and that i should either restore the ipod settings or i should disconnect and reconnect it. I reconnected it and got the same result, then tried again. This time iTunes didn't recognise it all and within a minute of being connected my ipod reset itself. The laptop registers it, but my ipod just keeps resetting itself and i don't know what to do. I've tried resetting it and restoring default settings, so what more can i do or is a repair the only option?

    Follow the steps mentioned in this article to disable the camera notification: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1501 , then try again to connect to iTunes.

  • Serious iPod problem (iPod keeps resetting)

    I've had my iPod for almost 2 years and until now everything worked fine. i listen to it on average 1 hr each day, and until 2 days ago battery seemed fine (I would recharge it each week, though it would be only half empty).
    So 2 days ago I was listening to music, tried to go forward and all of a sudden it stopped playing music, it was just frozen. I reset it and it came back with a "sad" iPod icon. Ocassionaly it would end up with the icon as if the battery is dead. I reset it a few more times and mostlt I got the same "sad" icon and only a few times the battery icon.
    I than tried to hook it up to my computer via USB and it would just reset and PC/iTunes would not see it.
    Since I've had it for 2 years I thought maybe the battery has gone bad (but does it happen just like that without any signs?) so I tried to charge itbut when I connect it to charger it keeps resetting.
    I than tried to force it into disc mode and that worked but as soon as I connected it to my computer it would reset. Even when I tried to charge it in disc mode it would reset after a few secunds.
    So, if left alone it is in off mode, but if I push any button it starts up, and eventually shows the sad iPod icon. If plugged into the charger or PC it keeps resetting.
    I have no way to get into it and update the iTunes, or access iPod. Has anyone seen this? Does is sound like a battery or is it something worse? I am out of warranty and would not want to spend too much money fixing it since it probably does not worth much, though i wish I could save my iTunes collection...

    Hey guys, I'm having a similar problem though a slight variation on a theme. maybe you can help me out.
    I have a 4th generation iPod (20 Gig) and it told me my ipod battery had died, so i plugged it into my computer to charge. It started out showing me the large symbol of the battery with the lightening bolt until there was enough to power the iPod so that it could run with iTunes. Except once it finally had enough power and interacted with iTunes it went into a black and white mode instead of the normal color mode and the the battery icon up in the top right corner was black with the lightening bolt. I got the normal "do not disconnect" message except that was black and grey as well.
    I figured i'd update my ipod as it was still charging and added a new playlist and it appeared to take the music, but when I unplugged the ipod it showed me the icon of the folder with the exclamation point and gave me the address http://www.apple.com/support/ipod. Since i didn't have time then i reset it and then plugged it in via a car charger to see if charging it would fix the problem. Unfortunately, when I unplugged it from the computer to take to the car and reset it, it started rebooting over and over. I was able to force it into disc mode so that it would continue to charge without wasting so much battery rebooting (it didn't reboot in disc mode) and continued to work on it when i got home.
    At home i tried every fix they have listed on the site and in my ipod handbook and nothing has worked. I have reset, restored twice, and charged the battery. The weird thing is that it
    1) is recognized by itunes
    2) just turns off if i try to use the charger
    3) appears to be able to download music to it but makes a clicking noise
    4) since it doesn't recognize the charger I can't finish the restore process
    5) still gives me the folder icon when it tries to turn on
    PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN!
    If you can think of anything i can do to fix this I will be so appreciative.
    Thanks guys!

  • IPod keeps resetting while playing an album

    I recently purchased the new Kings of Leon album, Only by the Night, on iTunes. However, when I try to listen to it on my iPod, after certain songs the iPod will reset itself and show the black screen with the white apple. This is the only album that this has ever happened with. I tried deleting the album and reloading it, but it keeps happening.

    Hey, just had this problem but its been fixed.
    This was my question.

  • My IPOD keeps resetting itself

    When I connect my IPOD to the computer with the updater program running, the unit just keeps resetting itself on its own. The dpdating tool give the error message "can't mount IPOD" and shuts down. As long as I have the IPOD connected to the computer it continues to reset itself. Does any one have any ideas how to fix this problem?

  • My IPOD keeps reseting every 4 or 5 minutes

    i don't know what has happened with my IPOD but when I play music or video, it keeps reseting avery 4 or 5 minutes. I just restored the IPOD to its original settings and didn't get any better.

    I would take it in somewhere, as suggested. Did you notice this happening after putting songs etc on it? Perhaps there is corrupt file that is causing problems.

  • My iPod keeps freezing when I try to update it!

    Hi everyone,
    I apologize if this has already been answered numerous times, but I'm in a bit of a time crunch so I didn't have a whole lot of time to search.
    I've had my iPod for nearly a year (actually, Tuesday will be a year since I got it), and ever since Easter, I've been having problems getting my iPod to update.
    Everytime I plug my iPod into my computer (Windows XP Home), it'll start to update no problem. Then, sometime about halfway through the update, the iPod freezes up, and I get the message that "iPod cannot be located" or whatever. I have to disconnect the frozen iPod from the computer, and wait for it to unfreeze (it won't reset when frozen either). The iPod actually gets really hot when it's frozen (oxymoron I know, but really), I'm holding it in my hand now and my hand's real warm from it. Then, I'll try to update it again and again, and then maybe, if it feels like it, the iPod will update. However, when it freezes and heats up like this, it totally, 100% drains the battery, so I just have to let it completely recharge for hours. It's like a 24 hour process, I have to start updating it early in the morning, and then eventually hours later I may have gotten it charged. I'm concerned that there's something wrong with my iPod (iTunes works fine) because I get USB errors on my computer, and I really can't afford to replace it or the battery now. The way it drains the battery also concerns me as well.
    Is anyone else in the same boat as me, or have any ideas as to what I should/can do? Again, I apologize if this is a repetitive question, I'm not real computer savvy so I have NO idea what to do. Thanks!
