IPod pauses during playback, even when Hold is on

My iPod recently started to pause all by itself during playbacks. The problem has been recurring, sometimes as frequently as a few seconds apart. It stops even when the Hold switch is on. Motion seems to make it worse, although the problem still occurs when the iPod is sitting still. I haven't dropped the device or otherwise subjected it to impact. Please help!!!

You should restore it.

Ipod not turning on even when hold the sleep and home button?

i have charged it for a while nothing happened. Tried the sleep and home buttons, still nothing.

Try restarting instead of resetting...
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

Hi
SlideShow in iDVD has a 99 photo limit - more than this and all sorts of error occures.
One can have more than one SlideShow on a DVD = X times 99 photos.
or assemble SlideShows in a movie editor (no limit at least not under 650 photos)
(only limit is Time in iDVD (movie time + MENU time --- 60 min or 120 min on SL-DVD and about twice on DL.-DVD )
I use
• iMovie up to HD6 - or -
• FinalCut any version
As they will give a better quality than iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 can do.

HT1310 Even when holding down the option key during the restart, I can't get the flashing file icon to go away

I have tried numerous times to restart my macbook pro to get to the startup manager. And even when holding down the option key, it will just take me back to the flashing file with a question mark in it. If anyone can help, I'd sincerely appreciate it.

Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Camcorder pauses during playback.

Both my canon video camcorders ( XH G1 and XL H1 ) pauses during playback or capture. Both are a few years old. The tapes I am using are new professtional Quality. Any Ideas?
While recording everything is fine.

Mike,
It will pause after only a few frames. It will then play for a couple of seconds then pauses, this keeps repeating.
I just noticed this accelerated play then pause a few days ago.
Months ago it did this but not nearly as frequently. I blamed this early pausing on the tapes I bought, since I was in need of fresh tapes on a job (my pro tapes took a hit and were broken) so I had to buy local Wal Mart tapes to finish the job.
Luckily I was able to pull enough footage off these to finish the job.
Since my first post I researched some and read that people were hitting the bottom of their camcorders during play back and this would resolve the pausing. I am not a fan of this solution. I also read in there that someone thought that the rollers or wheels in the camcorder are lose or worn.
Does the record and playback use the same drive system? If so this should not be the problem since when recording the time code keeps advancing without pausing.

Did you try unplugging the unit from power, leaving it for ten minutes, then plugging in again?
If you have & it didn't work, Damian Smith1 posted this possible solution (I like to give credit where credit is due).

Intermittent pauses during Playback with Captivate 6

I am running Adobe Captivate 6.0.0.199... "Non-Quiz" slides intermittently pause during playback, but, only the animated text... the audio continues. This occurs regardless of a variety of export configurations I have tried. Ideas?

Hello and welcome,
Please upgrade ASAP to 6.0.1.240. The version you are using has a lot of bugs, that were fixed with this patch released in October 2012 (not a typo - more than one year ago). Go to Help, Updates.
Maybe you problem will be solved with that update,

Choppy playback even when rendered.

I'm having an odd issue with the latest version of PPro CC, where even when rendered my playback at full or 1/2 resolution is incredibly choppy to the point that it's really unwatchable (the audio plays back fine though). I don't recall having this issue before the 2014 update so I may reinstall PPro, but I wanted to see if anyone else had similar issues before I went ahead and did that.
My PC specs are an 8 core i7-3820, 64GB's of Ram, and an Nvidia GTX670. My PC should be more than able to handle this video playback even when unrendered. I mainly work on short 2-5 minute videos using 1080p footage at 23.97fps.

I've tried enabling and disabling CUDA playback too and it doesn't seem to effect it at all.

HT2101 Anyone else get the "iPod too hot" message, even when the device and ambient temp are both cool?

My iPod Touch 4 repeatedly gets the iPod too hot message, even when the device and ambient temp are both cool. Shuts itself off. Ugh!
Is this a warranty issue or is there a fix?

Oprah podcasts still pause during playback

Quite a while ago I asked about the weird hesitation during playback of any of the Oprah podcasts, but, although several people reported having the same experience, no one had an answer.
Well....thought I'd bring the subject up again and see if there was any answer to why this is happening, and how to correct it.
Basically, after about 20 minutes into any of the podcasts offered by Oprah's soul series, my iPod will lock up and pause for a while. Nothing can force the iPod out of this mode while it's paused... you just have to wait until, whatever is happening, finishes. As the program progresses, these pauses occur more frequently and the duration of the pause increases as well (sometimes lasting for a minute or longer).
BTW, the podcasts play fine, without hesitations, on iTunes within any Mac...only when played thru an iPod does this occur.
Of course, all other music, and podcasts, play back normally, without pauses.

I've identified two different Oprah Podcast series, I assume you are referring to the *Oprah.com Spirit Channel* (also known as *Oprah's Soul Series* ) with episodes: Kathy Freston from 18th August and Rodger Kamenetz from 26th August, is that correct?
If so, I notice that there are audio-only Podcasts & video Podcasts, so we need to know which episode types are causing the problem, audio, video-small screen or video-large screen. I'm currently downloading (as I write) the episode *Rodger Kamenetz part 1 - small screen* as a test. Are you trying to play the large-screen versions of the videos on your iPod?

Nano pauses during playback - have to press key to replay

For no apparent reason, my ipod nano will seemingly pause in the middle of playing EVEN if the HOLD button is activated. It did this CONSTANTLY last night when running with it. Not sure why, but it seems the HOLD button doesn't deactivate the keys properly. I like my Shuffle much better!
Any ideas?

This happens to me when I use certain minijacks in the headphone port. If they shift, and come out slightly, the ipod pauses. Could that be it for you?

IPod Nano shuts off even after hold switch engaged...HELP!

I have a new iPOD Nano. When I run, I engage the hold switch. Even when I do that, over half the time, the iPOD still shuts off on its own after < 1 minute. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.<br>
iPOD Nano

Thanks. How do I know if its on sleep? Then, how do I turn that off? Thanks again for any help you can provide.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 - Black flickering lines during playback and when exporting video

I am fairly new to Premiere and have recently started using creative cloud on my new MacBook Pro retina - 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 - 16GB Memory - OSX Version 10.9.4
I shot a music video using my friends camera and all the shots were absolutely fine, I dropped them into Premiere and started editing the video together.
Some of the clips are perfectly fine during playback, although sometimes my playback stutters a little, but some of the clips have strange horizontal lines that flash through them when I watch it back. I have only used basic things such as the highlight/shadow and sharpen tools in Premiere. I thought that it maybe fine once I exported the video but when I open up the exported file on my desktop in Quicktime the little black flashes/glitches are still there in some of the shots.
Here is a screenshot you can see a line halfway between the top of my head and the top of the screen, when you watch the video there are lots of these flashing about.
Could this be something that I have set up wrong?
CPU/GPU related?
Thanks,
Jordan

Hi there,

I tried that but it didn't work unfortunately, Mine was already set to the one you said, I tried the other but no change

My iPod automatically turns off, even when it is FULLY charged!!! :(

Before I go to school, I let my iPod charge over night so then on my way to school && back I can listen to it.
It's FULLYcharged and after I listen to 2 or 3 songs it just turns off. Somtimes it says "low battery pleaese connect to computer". (Remember, it's still fully charged!)Even when I turn it back on it eventually does it again.
What's wrong!

Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.

IPod turns itself on, even when locked!

Hi all,
My mini, even when locked, turns itself on. Do you think its a battery issue? Its 3 years old, and the battery doesn't stay charged as long as it should, espeically when it plays by itself. I was going to replace the battery to see if that helps, but wanted to see if there could be another reason for it to keep turning on without me!

You most likely have an alarm set.
To check go to extras/clock/alarm and set it to off. Check the calendar also, extras/calendar/alarm.
