IPod on iPhone 3GS closes after 1 second

Believe it or not, I have not used my ipod on my 3GS since I got it 6 months ago. I downloaded my first podcast and tried to open the ipod app but it closes after only 1 or 2 seconds. There is nothing I can do to keep it open. I went to settings to see if there was something in the ipod settings that looked like it might need configuring but I could not determine anything wrong there. I also tried rebooting my iphone. That did not help. Any suggestions why my ipod closes suddenly and how I can fix that?

Try doing a soft reset on your phone. Just press and hold the sleep/wake button and the Home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds (just ignore the slider) and just let go once you see the Apple logo. You won't lose anything on your phone, by the way. :P If that didn't do the trick, go ahead and restore your phone. Just make sure you backup everything to iTunes before restoring.

  • TS1398 cant get ipod or iphone 3gs to connect to new router.

    Have had a new router, and I cant get ipod or iphone 3gs to connect to it.

    Does the iPod see the network?
    Do you get an error message?
    Does it connect to other networks?
    Have you tried:
    - Resetting the iPod, Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Powering off and gthen back on your router

  • Can't Synq iPhone 3GS Calendars after installing iOS6, any suggestions?

    Can't Synq iPhone 3GS Calendars after installing iOS6, any suggestions?
    I'm all mac-based and followed the instructions for the upgrade to iOS6 software for iPhone but now my calendars won't synq.  When I connect to iTunes and run the synq process, it gets stuck on the Calendar step and will not finish the synq process.  I have to either wait for it to quit or force it to quit.  Additionally, when I try to log a new event or meeting onto the Calendar on the iPhone, it will lock up and quit the app.  I then have to shut down the iPhone to get it to open again but it just locks up again when I try to log a new event.  Any suggestions?  I'm tempted to do a back up and reinstall but don't want to risk any data loss.

    Hi there,
    I am using Rogers, which does support tethering.
    The iPhone does not show up in the list of devices in the Bluetooth preference panel. It fails at the Pairing step of the Bluetooth setup assistant.
    Cheers!

    Disable your antivirus and firewall.
    If that doesn't fix it either the phone was jailbroken or hacked, or the computer you are using was used to hack or jailbreak some other iDevice.

  • IPhone 3GS rings after 5 seconds

    This is very weird and it happens to my iPhone 3GS and my sister's 3GS. So when someone calls the iPhone, it doesn't ring immediately. It actually takes at least 5, sometimes more seconds to ring. This is a lot of time and I miss important calls. Both phones are FACTORY unlocked and work on T-Mobile but it's the same on AT&T so it's not provider's issue since other phones don't have this problem. I saw a lot of people have had similar problem. Does any one know if I can fix this? It's definitely not a defective phone it's just the way it is with the iphone and I don't have any idea why it takes 5-10 seconds before it starts ringing

    Let me explain this again. It doesn't go to voicemail quickly. Imagine phone 1 and phone 2. I make a call from a phone 1, wait 5-6-7 seconds and phone 2 (the iPhone) starts ringing
    Let me see again if I understand what you are saying. When do you start counting these seconds? Is it from the first time you hear a ring in your ear on the phone you are calling from? I've had a number of phones, and I know that calls need setup time, generally a little more than landline phones. I know in a later post you mention a Nokia only taking < 1 second. You also say it is not going to voicemail too quickly. I guess my real delemia here is, how are you missing calls if they are not going to voicemail. Do they just quit ringing because the person on the other end is hanging up? How long are they waiting, or in your case, how long did it ring before it went to voicemail before you hung up on your test call, I guess the question is how many rings. I'm not understanding why this delay in the beginning of ringing is troubling you if the calls is not being rerouted to voicemail, therefore impacting your ability to answer it.
    The standard troubleshooing steps are power off/on the phone, if that doesn't help, then a reset, holding the power and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo, then releasing, ignoring the slide to power off screen. The next step is a restore, first from a backup, the next as a new phone or not from backup. The next step is outside of user troubleshooting and that is to send or take it to Apple, however since you purchased these units in England, that is where you would have to go for service, since the iPhones are serviced in the country they were sold in.
    Hope one of these help.

  • Iphone 3gs crashed after installing new ios update

    Please help. I just installed the newest ios update to my daughters iphone 3gs. It installed successfully, i thought. Then about 10 minutes later it said verifying update.

  • How can i take the music off my ipod touch/iphone 3gs and put it on my itunes account without deleting the music

    I have a Ipod touch and a Iphone 3gs with music that i want to put on my Iphone 4s. How can i put music from each one onto my itunes without itunes trying to delete it?????

    You can transfer purchases from your iPhone and iPod touch to your computer and it will put all music, apps, books, and other purchases or downloads made in iTunes onto your computer. Or you can sign into the iTunes Store in iTunes on your computer and go to Purchases > Not on This Computer > Download all for each tab across the top.
    If you have any music that was imported from CDs to your Dad's computer, you'll need to import those to your laptop. When you sync your iPhone, it will erase all the music on your iPhone and replace it with the music in your Music Library. If you have all of the music that's on your iPhone on your computer already (by importing CDs and transferring purchases) you won't lose anything.

  • My iphone 3GS crashed after iOS4.0.2

    Hi,
    I installed iOS4.0.2 last week. My phone crashed after that and not coming up. So I tried to restore from itunes, my iphone is at recovery mode and didn't started after that. Even now my iPhone 3GS is not displayed in iTunes.
    I checked USB port; reinstall iTunes etc. But my phone is not coming up. It is showing only one screen ( connect to iTunes) and iTunes is not showing any sign of iPhone.
    Suggest how can I restore my iPhone 3GS.

    It sounds as if you had a similar problem to me.
    Does iTunes try to reset and restore your iphone and you get an error message 1604?
    I tried everything that was suggest by Apple, and then someone on here said try a different computer and it worked. So if you can access a different computer it's worth a try.

  • One or Two ITunes Account?  -- Own both iPod Video & iPhone 3GS

    Hi
    I've just bought an iPhone 3GS (this is my first iPhone, so everything is new to me). I also own an iPhone video, which I bought a couple of years ago. My question is, do I need to set up two different iTunes accounts (i.e. a new a/c for my iPhone, separately from the a/c I've been using for my iPod video)? I cannot imagine using the same account for two different devices... maybe it's possible, I don't know. I have lots of podcast downloads and also movies on my iPod video account. I'm afraid of messing it up. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I have one account and an iPhone, an iPod Touch, and 4 other iPods. iTunes recognizes each as a separate device and I can select the sync options I want for each. I don't do any manual management. I select the playlists I want on each device.
    See this Apple article about multiple iPods with one computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
