Ipod on iphone 3g crashing

I am having the same trouble with my iphone 3G. For no reason, sometimes it simply crashes. I hope they come up with an update to fix this soon.

After update to 10.5.3.3 Itunes crashes on convert video to ipod or iphone version and diagnostics

I upgraded to Itunes 10.5.3.3 today since the dialog box appeared and now it crashes when I select a podcast and create ipod or iphone version from the advanced menu item. I tried running Diagonostics from the Help menu item and it also crashes. Using IPhone 4S.

The following is a copy and pasted reply to the thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1581804&tstart=0.
Your issues are mostly likely related to the issues reported in the thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1542886&tstart=0.
For myself, the solution was to install an updated version of ClamAV. Since I'd done this prior to the 10.5.4 release, I can't comment on whether an update will solve your issue (although I doubt it would, since the update didn't mess with my ClamAV settings).
Hope that helps,
Carl.

HT4527 Old pc crashed, only have existing music on ipod and iphones, need to re-establish itunes on new pc

Old pc crashed, only have existing music on ipod and iphones, need to re-establish itunes on new pc, how do you do it?

Hi ted846,
For any content on your iPod and iPhone purchased from iTunes, you can transfer it to your new computer's iTunes library via this article:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
For anything not purchased through iTunes, you will need to reimport that from the original source or otherwise bring over from the previous disk.
Take care!

My Iphone keeps crashing since the new update.. how do I get my phone to work right

My Iphone keeps crashing since the new update 7.1.. how do I get my phone to work right

First, create a separate login on your computer for your friend. Do this BEFORE you do anything else. Next, make sure iTunes is up to date. Then:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in iTunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect her phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on her phone will be in her itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore her itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding her contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
You should be good to go.

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:

My Iphone 5 crashed after installing ios8

My iphone 5 crashed when downloading and installing ios8 update. Tried to retrieve in iTunes, but gets error code
What do I do now??

Hi tutts1111,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing, and/or what exactly you are currently seeing. If your iPhone won't start up or respond, you may find the following article helpful:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support
On the other hand, if the frozen screen you are seeing is an icon screen directing you to connect to iTunes, or you are otherwise unable to update/restore your iPhone, then this article may be of more use:

Iphone keeps crashing randomly

My iphone was fine for like 2 years then it started randomly crashing...
It would crash in the middle of a song with the ipod app, it would crash during an app and sometimes even in the middle of a sync or a restore...
It would go white with lines and sometimes restart on its own...
I've tried everything... i restored, i updated firmware, i even set it up as a new phone... nothing worked...
The thing i find amusing is that this problem started the day my applecare warranty expired... 3 days ago... =(
What should I do? Im currently in korea so I can't go to a genius bar for assistance and even if i did im pretty sure they would tell me to shell out $200 for a replacement... because my applecare protection expired like 3 days ago

I called tech support twice before they put me through to second level tech support in Cork, Ireland. This is when they suggested a replacement 3GS even though I was out of warranty. Unfortunately the Apple store refused to replace with a 3GS and only gave me a 3G, which will give me exactly the same problems I was having. Ultimately, a bit of pain but I guess I got a new/reconditioned 3G. I haven't restored from the back up I made yet, so luckily it's on OS 3. But, I've lost a lot of data.

HT1349 The screen of my Iphone 5 crashed. What can I do?

The screen of my new Iphone 5 crashed. Can I change it? How much would it cost?

You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity. A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less. Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

Iphone 4 crashing after update 5.0.1

Ever since updating to OS 5.0.1, my iphone keeps crashing. At first it was while playing a game. Now at random times, it crashes.
I have also restored the os once already, still same problems.
Any help?

I have the iOS 5.0.1 update and I had a similar problem this evening after downloading two podcasts from iTunes:
1. From a clean reboot of the iPhone
2. Open Music App
After a brief pause, the Music App crashed.
I did a sync of the iPhone with my Mac, and the behavior changed slightly:
1. From a clean reboot of the iPhone
2. Open Music App
3. Tap More button at the bottom of the screen
4. Tap PodCast item in list
After a brief pause, the Music App crashed.
I tried removing all of the music items as described above. I also tried syncing the podcasts with the computer, and then unchecking the Sync Podcasts checkbox. This removed the podcasts. However, when I repeated the above behavior, the app still crashed.
I then synced my unplayed podcasts from iTunes and did the following:
1. Open the Settings App
2. Tap the General Item
3. Tap the Usage Item
4. Under the Storage list, tap the Music item.
5. Under the Podcasts list, remove all of the podcasts, except the last one that I downloaded this evening.
6. Press the Button at the bottom of the iPhone to leave the Settings App
7. Open the Music App
8. Tap More button at the bottom of the Screen
9. Tap the Podcasts item
At this point, my one remaining podcast appeared in the list. Subsequently, I resynced my podcasts from iTunes to my iPod and was able to listen to my podcasts.

How can I restore my iTunes library from iPod after a HD crash?

My computer HD crashed and had to be replaced....
I've just installed iTunes and connected my iPod, I can't find a way to restore the iTunes library from the iPod.
I keep all my music on an external HD, everything that is on the iPod (~140GB) is on the external HD (and more) so I don't want to restore the library from the iPod to the HD nor recreate playlists, etc.
What can I do?
Thanks for your help

Check out the following post. It will work with your iPod video.
Be very careful when connecting an iPod full of music to an empty iTunes library.There is very real risk of permanently losing all the music.
To prevent auto sync, before you connect the iPod go to the iTunes preferences and select "devices", then select "disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods".
An alternative method is to connect the iPod whilst holding down the 'control+shift' keys and do not let them go until your iPod appears in iTunes.
If you see a message that your iPod is associated with a different library and asks if you want to link to a new one, make sure you press "Cancel".
If you should click on "Erase and Sync" will erase all the content currently on your iPod and it will be replaced with the content of the iTunes library you just connected to.
When you've pressed cancel your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list under "devices" and allow you to change the update setting to manage the iPod content manually, and that will let you use your iPod for the time being without the risk of accidentally erasing the contents.
Then do any of the following to transfer your music from iPod back to the computer/iTunes.
For iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
Find out how to do that here.
How to copy iTunes purchases from an iPod or iPhone to a computer.
For all other non purchased content (your own CDs etc), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it is a little more involved than other methods.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump and iPodRobot.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
More information is contained here.

Old 1st Gen iPod to iphone 4s

I have an old ipod 1st gen. I transfered my CD collection to itunes to put on the ipod. My computer crashed and I haven't had to worry about it. But now I have an iphone 4s and would like to transfer my music from my ipod to my iphone. I tried to transfer the songs from my ipod to the itunes I now use on my laptop foe my iphone but it will not work with out wiping out the ipod. Does anyone have any suggestions. I am using the same AppleID.

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

Internet: PC/Mac to Ipod touch/iPhone sync

New Operating system update request: To be able to connect to the internet through my PC or Mac without buying a wireless modem
My computer is in my basement and, most of my friends' are too, I really like playing my apps online in the comfort of my basement because it's steaming hot upstairs (where I can get internet) and I got want to get a wireless modem at this time. If there's going to be an iOS 4.1.2 i really want a Computer (PC/Mac) to iPod touch/iPhone internet sync.

You can only sync all media from one syncing computer. First you have to connect the iPod to the new Mac and via USB and make the Mac the new syncing computer. See:
Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
Then you can set up wifi syncing.
iOS: Syncing with iTunes

My iPhone 5s crashes a lot!!!

Hello there,
Why is my iPhone 5s crashing a lot with almost every app I use even sometimes when I open Settings? I like the phone so far other than this very annoying issue. This is my 2nd device after returning the 1st one because of the same problem plus and issue with the microphone that seemed to be over heated after a long period of phone call, and maybe this device will end up to be returned too. I've done hard reset/soft reset many times and even tried to restore as new (from scratch) but nothing really has changed. I enabled the automatically send for diagnostics and usage so that Apple might notice the crazy reports I get from crashing. Please I need help as soon as possible.
Best,
Adel

I don't understand what you're asking.
"But what about settings? Is that also something I can even delete?" I don't follow.
You cannot delete the "Settings" category. You can delete some of the apps that have settings set from within settings. That would delete their settings.
Say you have a suspicious app called "Zzyzx". You could delete that app by holding its icon until it wiggles, then click the "X" in its upper left. If Zzyzx had some settings, deleting the app would delete its settings as well.
"Apps work fine sometimes, but sometimes they just crash." Regardless, find those suspicious ones and delete them. Of course, all Apple's apps cannot be deleted (they would not show the "X" when wiggling the icons). But that is fine - they are not suspicious.
