IPod Restarts When Viewing Photos (Every 1 out of 3 times)!

When I try to view my photos (mainly doing a slide show), the IPod unit will restart. One time, the unit froze and I had to perform a manual reset. I have not seen a resolution yet in the forums. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

An Update for what it is worth, and still with no resolution. It appears that I have the auto restart issue only when I view photos and I have previously configured the slide show to turn on music using my music library on the Ipod. If I view photos and it is working ok. with the music playing in the background, and then I leave photos to go listen to my normal music library, and then I come back to viewing photos again, when I start the photo slide show at this point, this is where the Apple restart occurs. I have been able to isolate this down on both my Ipod and my wife's Ipon Nanao Special Editions. Any body else having this problem? When I turn off the background music under the photo slide show preferences, I can go on with photos all I want with no auto restart. So for now, no more back ground music in my photo slide shows.

Ipod freezes when viewing photos

I got a new Ipod yesterday and when I try to view the photos after uploading them to the ipod it will freeze about half way down when I view all the photos in the photo library and the last 12 months catagory. im using a macbook and the photos are stored in Iphoto.

I deleted a couple photos in the area the ipod freezes but it still freezes. Resetting it does nothing but restarts the ipod and then it still freezes when I go back and veiw the photos in through photo library and last 12 months. I created folders to group the photos to test the ipod and see if it will freeze when I view the same photos the ipod is freezing on when I veiw them in "photo library and 12 months". And the Ipod does not freeze when I view the photos in their gruoped folders. So it can't be a corrupted file, can it?

X2-00 spontaneous switch off when viewing photos

My daughter uses a X2-00 since about half a year. From time to time when viewing photos she made with the phone, the phone spontaneously switches off and restarts. Restart is without problem, but should not occur at all. An update to the latest software version did not resolve the issue. It's still the same photos that cause a restart.
Any ideas what might cause this issue?

Remove the battery for a couple of minutes..Insert and see if the phone switches ON..
If not, Confirm that the battery is charged.. Leave on charging for 10-15 minutes and then try switching ON while charger is connected..
If problem remains, you need to visit Nokia Care..

IPod restarts when syncing music

My iPod restarts when its in the middle of syncing music. Sometimes it just restarts and other times it says the required folder cannot be found. Can anyone help me?

Plug your iPod into your computer and once iTunes open go to the iPod preference plane on the source list. There is the option to restore your iPod. Restoring means to erase your iPod completely and reinstall a new software on it. So if you have any files in your iPod that you don't have on your computer, back them up before you do the restoring. Otherwise, proceed with the restore (You need internet connection to do the restore). You should be fine after restoring it.

TS2972 when viewing photo albums thru apple tv photos show in random order. How do I get to show in sequence ?

When viewing photo albums photos show in random. How do you get photos to show in sequecne?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Before going into any depth about this have you checked that you aren't simply using the shuffle option in the slideshow settings.

IPad restart when edit photo and setting to wallpaper

Ipad restart when edit photo and setting to wallpaper.
took it last week and it got restarted thrice since then.
it happened only when I edit photo

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Ipod restarts when trying to edit photos

when i go to edit a photo my ipod restarts itself

Many users notice this bug -- it happens when trying to edit a screenshot taken on the iPod. It seems to only apply to the iPod touch, as it works on iPhone or iPad. This bug has been reported.
If that is the case, the user should submit another bug report for it again via this link: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html

Iphoto 11 spinning balls when viewing photos

Hi - We're pretty frustrated so seeking help here as iPhoto support via Apple Care has not offered a solution to our issue. We have late 2012 iMac 8mb RAM with 3.2 (or 3.4) processor.
We have 3 Nikon cameras; D80, D300S, D800.
The D800 is the newest.
Uploading from cameras into iPhoto works perfectly.
However, when viewing a particular Album that contains photos from all 3 cameras, we get spinning ball and have to wait for up to 30 seconds to go from one photo to another
The spinning ball is random BUT doesn't happen on D80 or D300S photos. Only happens on D800 photos, which makes us wonder if there is a bug in iPhoto. The D800 is supported in iPhoto.
More info: The size of the photo doesn't seem to matter, as this can happen when one is going from a large MB photo to a small one, and visa versa. It doesn't hang on particular photos, but seems to be random.
The D800 is a 35 megapixel camera if that info helps at all. The other cameras are much lower megapixels.
I don't know enough about computers to solve this myself, but iphoto support has not found the problem. I think it's a lot simplier than we think but don't know what to do next.
Apple Care iPhone support had us repair the library and even make a new iPhoto library but we got the same issue.
The album with the issue contains 173 photos, so of which are HDR. It is not getting stuck on HDR photos, but sometimes it can. Like I said, it's random.
When we put that same album into Elements12, there was no issue of spinning balls, so I also wonder if it's the size of the entire library that has something to do with this issue. (the iPhono Library contains 5,000 photos. Support confirmed that there is plenty of free memory so that is not the issue either, but we are going to have the 8mb upgraded to 16MB anyway but we don't believe this will solve anything at this point.
We really wanted to buy Aperture but wonder if we need to resolve this issue in iPhoto first....Thank you & I hope I provided enough info. I tried...-Lynn

Yes, occurs in both RAW & JPEG
Here's what we learned today: when we call up the Album in question (but does happen in other albums but trying to stick with just one for now) it is now confirmed that it's only happening with D800 photos,but doesn't matter the size of photo or whether Jpeg or Raw. Can be either/or.
BUT, once we go thru the entire album of 174 photos, the time lag is gone the second time we view the photos. (no spinning balls & can scroll rapidly thru entire album) Wouldn't this suggest not a camera issue?
If we close out of iPhoto and go back into iPhoto and to that same album, we get the spinning ball delay between some of the D800 photos as before, but also confirm that it doesn't hang up on same photos each time but hangs only on D800 photos.
One more thing that may mean nothing - The abum has 174 photos. The first 100 or so photos were shot with the D80, the next group are D300s, and the last bunch (from photo #145 to 174) are D800, so the hanging doesn't begin until #145, but might not hang until photo 150. It's random, and different each time the album is opened AFTER iPhoto is closed & re-opened. As long as the album remains opened we can even go to other albums & go back to that album & all is still fine. It's just the intial opening of iPhoto each time.
This particular album IS a "rated" album so it has that cog wheel on the album file. Because it contains all photos that my husband rated as "3-star photos", I thought maybe the "smartness" could be the issue, but he has other albums with D800 photos that aren't rated & those photos can also hang...
Hubby has gone out to shoot post-blizzard photos & we'll do as you suggested upon his return & make new iPhoto library! Thanks! Will report back!

N96 - poor quality when viewing photos

when taking a photo with the n96 the image quality is great when viewing it just after taking the photo, but then when i view the images through the 'photos' application the quality is terrible, really pixelated and looks as though it hasnt loaded properly or something? i find i can sort this out by going into edit, saving the photo again, then when i view it the quality is back to normal.
anybody any ideas whats wrong?

Do you mean the preview?
You have to click on the picture to open it. What you are seeing initially is a quick preview. If you leave it there for a few seconds it will "clean" itself. Or just open the picture by pressing the center select, You will see that it's not pixelated.

IPod restarts when trying to play certain songs

My ipod has been acting crazy on and off now for a long time. Usually if I let it die and sit a day before recharging it it works again, but now I am having a new problem. When I play some songs my ipod just restarts itself, and I mean restarts. The Apple logo comes up and it starts over like I had never had it on. I still have all my music and all, but it like coming out of hibernation.
I guess best put, my ipod restarts after certain songs.

5th gen reboots when viewing photos

Is this a known bug?

Also reboots when pushing the ">" play button when viewing the photos page or on the "Photo Library" menu.

IPod jumps to Import Photos - errors out

Original 20 GB iPod updated to 3.1.1. While playing music iPod jumps to Import Photos and errors out "no card inserted". It does it intermittently but often frequently. Does not lock up but I have to go back through menu and reselect music options. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the reply. It is black and white and while playing music, earphones or through remote player, mp3 style or the full iPod plug, it stops playing and the the message on the screen is "card not inserted" and when I page back through the menu it goes to Import Photos.

Ipod restarts when choosing nike options

Hey all,
I finally got Nike+ Sport kit to work mostly with my MBP. I recently upgraded to iTunes 7.6 (29) and Nano firmware 1.1
now when I select "Basic" in the Nike+Ipod menu my nano restarts. Every time. I can get it to track a workout by choosing distance, but all the other choices make it restart.
Anyone else haiving this problem with 1.1?

I wanted to add a "me too" post to keep the thread alive and hopefully get more visibility to it. However, I haven't yet stumbled upon a solution. I have a 3rd gen nano and a nike+ kit. I used it without a problem on basic for my first few runs. All of a sudden after a few days it did the restart when I chose basic. It seemed to do this no matter what I did short of restoring the iPod, so I did that. Everything seemed fine. However, after a couple more workouts, it did the same thing. This time I tried 'time' when basic failed, and it seemed to work fine. The next workout I chose 'distance' and while I'm set for miles, my progress was given mid-run as kilometers and my end totals were also provided in kilometers. I performed another restore and was able to complete another basic workout. Today I experienced something similar...basic caused the restart, time was blank (not even custom) and distance was blank except for custom which said I was set for a 10k although I had chose 2.5 miles. Another restore and I could complete a basic workout.
All this being said, restoring the iPod each time I want to jog is simply not a good workaround. I'll be visiting the Apple Store the next time this happens, which I have to assume at this point will be tomorrow. For what it's worth, I've always been running the 1.1 nano software.

Quicklook (column view) crashing finder when viewing photos

My Finder is freezing when I am viewing photos in the column view. It works fine in list, cover flow, and thumbnail. Any ideas as to why the column view quicklook might be causing it to freeze?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the easy fix first: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the last three options.
