IPod locks up with video on the TV

I have a 80gb 5g ipod and i'm watching a movie on the TV from the iPod. If I try to stop the movie or it comes to the end, sometimes it LOCKS the iPod up and can't unlock it. 1st time I had to wait til the battery ran out. The 2nd time I took everything back to the store and they gave me a new iPod and Dock, but it did it again at the end of a movie. This time I did unlock it by doing the "press center button and then Meneu" This iPod, I didn't update the ipod software when asked. Any idea what's going on anyone?

If your having problems playing back one movie> then it could be a bad file> if so try getting another movie downloaded.
otherwise it doesn't hurt to get all the most recent ITunes, IPOD firmware and Windows Updates installed.

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • Firefox freezes when i visit websites with videos on the background or i watch videos.I have windows 7 and the laatest version of mozilla.

    I have windows 7 and the latest version of firefox.When i watch videos on youtube or visit websites with videos on the background mozilla freezes. I tried to disable all the extensions and plugins but it had no result.I didn't had this problem with versions of mozilla previous to 4.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • How can I connect a PC with iTunes to an ipod and make iTunes play podcasts directly from the ipod without synching with iTunes on the PC ?

    I predominently use my ipod to listen to my favourite podcasts. I download podcasts onto my Home PC using iTunes and then synch the podcasts onto my ipod again using iTunes. This all works fine.
    Occassionally I want to connect my ipod to my Work PC via iTunes and listen to the podcasts by playing them through my Work PC external speakers. I DO NOT want iTunes to synch with my ipod, I just want to access the podcasts on the ipod and play them directly using the iTunes on my Work PC. I used to be able to do this, but have recently had a new replacement PC provided and now when I attach my ipod to the new PC iTunes wants to synchronize, and I can't see the podcasts which I know are on the ipod.
    I'm sure that this is an easy one for you experts out there. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Arnold

    Just to be clear - I have a new Work PC. My Home PC and ipod synching is all still working fine - it's just connecting the ipod to my new Work PC - and not being able to see and play the podcasts from the ipod - which is the problem that I am trying to overcome. Thx.

  • Problems on viewing OEM with video on the Adobe viewer APP on ipad air 8.1 with EDGE ANIMATE CC 2014.1

  • IPod locks up with 1.2,... and how I got out of it.

    As discussed on this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=637616&tstart=0
    ...Some people are experiencing an apparent lock-up, where as the "Do No Disconnect" screen just keep on flashing. Knowing this. I went ahead and updated mine,...
    It locked. No problem, checked what was tried, didn't feel like restoring/reinstalling everything. How I got out of it:
    A) iPod stays connected no matter what.
    B) Tried to restart iTunes, nothing ("Do No Disconnect" screen still on)
    C) Restarted computer without disconnecting iPod
    D) iPod now appears on desktop, but "Do No Disconnect" screen still on
    E) iTunes fires up. iPod shows up, but, still, the "Do No Disconnect" screen still flashes.
    F) Selected the iPod, then clicked on the "eject" button bottom right
    G) iPod blinks out... and the "Do No Disconnect" screen goes away! =D
    H) Disconnected the iPod
    I) iPod now responds as before
    Hope this helps ^-^

    I have a similar problem. I solved the problem as you did, but clicking the eject button. However, it seems that I have to do this nearly every time. If I plug it in, it will sync and finish. "Do not disconnect" goes away OK. However, if I choose 'sync' from the file menu, it will sync and then not clear when finished. I have to manually eject.

  • What's wrong with videos in the iPod touch?

    Videos added to my iPod touch won't show up in iTunes. Thus, not only can I not know what videos I have from iTunes but, because of this, the only way to delete videos is from the iPod touch.
    I have a word around where I can create a playlist and put all my videos there. Unfortunately, I still can't delete them from iTunes because that will only remove them from the playlist.
    Finally, I'm afraid to modify any tag information for my videos. It takes an unacceptably long time for the information to update and you can corrupt your video if you cancel it with the stop button on the progress dialog. Seriously, it takes about as long as the video to update the tag of a video. So, an hour long video can take an hour to update the tag information.
    I've done a search and, so far, no one has described this strange behaviour. Do I just have a defective iPod touch?
    Thank you...

    No, I haven't. If simply adding videos to my iPod is so buggy, I'm afraid at what a complicated procedure like synching might do. I feel like the iPod is so delicate that any unexpected input will corrupt it irrevocably. I've already had to reset it due to data corruption (which wasn't fun)...
    If the device can't deal with manually added videos, why do they let us? Why not force us to synch like with photos? It's tempting to try to return it except that this can't be anything other than a software problem and no one else seems to have this issue. Am I the only person on Earth who doesn't sync? It's interesting that you automatically assumed that I was doing so. So much so that you interpreted my post as describing some form of synching, as if there was no other way to use one's iPod.
    I'm fairly disappointed in this infernal device...

  • Cinelerra problem with video in the composer window

    Hi,
    After going through many distributions here I am a happy User's Arch.
    One thing I feel very lacking in Linux, even more today that I do not use windows at home for anything is the fact that I can not find video editing software that is really good.
    As researched a lot and not found anything that is really good in terms of video editing, I believe that it should meet my Cinelerra nescessidade because he in fact work this transaction and videos, etc ... Despite not liking anything on your interface would be able to use it.
    If anyone has any tips please help!
    The problem is that some crashes are annoying in the Composition window where it plays the video, it's not like I had with 3D acceleration.
    And really annoying, I can not do anything without seeing the video in real time as it's getting and the parties must move ...
    I tested several software recommended and one that I liked was the Avidemux which unfortunately does not work with multitrack and has no effect. The demics found it very bug. The Pitivi the crash here whenever I zoom in the video track ...
    An error that could not noticing this is in red below when I install Cinelerra.

    Hi,
    I noticed that the problem is related to libgl same.
    The NVIDIA drivers make a link to this file sombolico thus
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Out 10 20:12 /usr/lib/libGL.so -> libGL.so.1
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Out 10 20:12 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.256.53
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 765460 Out 10 20:12 /usr/lib/libGL.so.256.53
    I tried to remove the symbolic link and the program crash when I play the video
    I think that's why I can not use other programs that want video acceleration, eg
    Pitivi -> lock and close (crash) when I zoom video
    Google-Earth -> tb's crash when a dialog will appear (those with balõezinhos info)
    There is another that I can not remember now.
    I tried using the nvidia driver directly from the site, version 256.53 Geforce 9800 GT
    It's the same problem ...
    I tried the version contained in the 173 nvidia pacman repositories and it's the same problem.
    If someone can give me a help, thank you!

  • ITunes locking up with Video Files

    I have a 30gig iPod video. I have been buying some rather large Videos, I get them into iTunes no problem, but when I try to click and drag them over to my iPod in the source pane my PC locks up and I need to reboot. I also tried doing an automatic update to the ipod and the pod does not recieve the files. What's up?

    Does your computer just hand there or ur itunes freezes? Since you say you have been buying large videos, this may cause your computer to hang for a while. Try it again and be patient. Maybe start it, have a snack or watch some tv or something and then check if it sends.
