Ipod restarts while playing playlists

My ipod has recently been shutting off while about 10-15 songs into a playlist. The apple logo appears and then the ipod goes back to the main menu. Has anyone had this problem or know what I should do to remedy the situation?

Corrupt song file? Does it play ok in iTunes?
Can you delete it from iTunes and re import it?

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

PC suddenly restarts while playing games MSI 660Ti Power Edition OC 2GB

Hi,
I have the following problem since I replaced my graphics card (before 9800GTX+, now MSI 660Ti Power Edition 2GB) I got 3 random restarts while playing games. The computer is not overheating, the CPU's temperature is around 58-59 degrees after running prime95 for 3 hours. The graphics card temperature is 70 degrees after running furmark for 1 hour, the stress tests never failed, just when running games. The computer has been stable. For case cooling im using (2X12cm front, rear 1X14cm below 1X12cm and above 1X12cm +1 X14cm).
I got two random system restarts while playing Doom 3 BFG and one system restart after playing Wolfenstein for 4 hours. The PC just restarts itself.
What could be wrong? I have no more ideas? Should I replace the CPU cooler (im running the stock CPU cooler but all stress tests dont show overheating?!)
Is it possible that the PSU is the reason, but it should be strong enough ...
The system:
GA 870A-UD3
AMD Phenom II 1090T (cooler box)
MSI GeForce 660Ti Power Edition OC 2GB
12GB RAM (12GB Kit 3X4GB DDR3 Kingston Genesis 1600)
Samsung 256GB 840pro
WD Blue 500GB
Thermaltake Thoughpower Q-Fan 750W PSU
Housing NZXT Source 210 Elite
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Thank you.

The temps for the graphics card are quite normal. I have the same one and under load it will go to 70 to 75C, depending on ambient. What Nvidia driver are you using? Did you do a new driver installation?
If I look at your CPU though, then you are very close to the max CPU temp and throttling may invoke the shutdown http://products.amd.com/en-us/DesktopCPUDetail.aspx?id=640&f1=&f2=&f3=&f4=&f5=&f6=&f7=&f8=&f9=&f10=&f11=&f12=
62C is max.
Could also be your PSU that's not completely stable and continuous power draw may cause Overcurrent or overtemp protection. Speculating here as to probable causes.
Another possibility is your RAM. That should normally be paired in 2's. Have you tested with only 2 modules ? Remember we don't support that MB here, but its just another test I would run. But you would know, probably having run it like that with the previous GPU.

Crash and restart while playing audio book with Media player

Hi,
I'm currently trying to play an audio book (approx. 4 1/2 hours length) ind m4b-format.
This file plays well with iPod, SE K850i and iTunes on Mac.
The file begins tp play properly on my Curve too.
But when I try to go to some part of the book after around 3h or later (by using the scroll bar of the media application),
I sometimes get a prompt telling me, that I'm using a invalid file format (though Media plays it from 0h on without problems).
In addition, the Blackberry freezes, the LED on top lights red and the Blackberry restarts!! Wow!
I can reproduce this with different audio books, all playing well on the other devices I use.
The m4b files are creaated with Audio Book Builder and contain no DRM rights as they are not downloaded from iTunes Store or audible.
I'm using a Blackberry Curve 8310 v4.2.2.176
Micro Edition Media Version 1.1
Allthough I think that my curve should crash while playing a simple audio book, I would even be gladif you could lead me to a third-party software which supports audio-books properly, so at least I can
hear my Audio books while there is no patch for the curve available which solces the problem natively.
Allthough I think that my curve should crash while playing a simple audio book.
Thanks for any help in advance.

You are talking about a specific audio file format : m4b. It stands for "MPEG4, Part 14", which is not currently supported by the Blackberry Curve. The list of supported file formats, including mp3 and "MPEG4, Part 2", is available here :
Supported media files
I don't know if there is a Blackberry application that can read that m4b format. You can, on your PC, convert the m4b file into a regular mp3 file, then transfert the mp3 file to your blackberry. There are many free tools to do that, I'll give you one : LameDrop. Its a small square, you drag'n'drop your files on it et voilà.

i have restored it several times.still the problem persists.
restarting the ipod doesnt solve the problem as it freezes again.
even removing the files that freeze doesnt solve the problem.please help

For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
For Window computer
Go to folder “My Computer”
Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
Now select “Format”
Eject your iPod and do a Reset
Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”

Songs restarts while playing

Ok, I searched for answers, I cant find anything.
Ok so here is the problem. I Updated to iTunes 7, and with it, while playing music, a lot of songs would play for 1-20 seconds(depends on the song) and then seem like you restarted the song. Only thing is that its still progressing through the song.
I tried regressing to iTunes 6, still there, tried winamp, nothin. Worse part, my iPod does it to, because I had to reimport the songs.
Im ready to kill something!
Athlon 64 3200+ 1 GB ram Windows XP

I have the same problem.
I suspect it may be a thread concurrency problem with dual core processors in windows.
If so, you need to delete itunes completely from your system and re-install with itunes 6.x
Bummer.
If Apple has an official answer, I'd like to hear it.

IPod Mini 'Recently Played' playlist not updating...any ideas?

Does anyone have any idea why my 'Recently Played' playlist on my
iPod mini would suddenly stop updating itself?
I tried to fix it by connecting to my computer and deleting the playlist
through iTunes and creating a new 'Smart Playlist' with exactly the
same settings of the last 'Recently Played' playlist but now, the new
'Recently Played' playlist on the iPod is just staying the same, its not
updating, its the songs that were played on my computer before I
disconnected my iPod, so it's not even the songs from my iPod...
Hope that makes sense.....anyone got any ideas?

I'm not a user of smart playlists, but could it have something to do with this?

My Sony Blu-ray player keeps restarting while playing a DVD.

While playing a DVD in my Sony Blu-ray BD/DVD player it keeps shutting off, then automatically restarting itself and goes back to the home menu. It is a BDV-2100 Series. Any suggestions? I've turned off the Sleep settings. Unplugged for 1 minute and turned back on. I haven't found any helpful suggestions for this in the COmmunity Support questions. Is this a common problem with this series of Blu-ray?

Satellite A500-17X restarts while playing games

Hello all,
I have had my toshiba satellite a500-17x for about two years, I bought it to play Starcraft and world of warcraft. Ever since i got it i have had a problem with it. While playing games it would suddenly restart the laptop. I contacted the customer support and had it taken back to see if they could find out what was wrong with it. They said it was fine and it must be the games software that was causing the problem. (I do not believe that this is the problem since i reinstalled all software and the problem persisted)
I felt that they were trying to bluff me with this answer. Either they did not do an indebt inspection to try to resolve the problem or I believed that the model itself was flawed.
Anyway I wanted to say that the laptop can sometimes play fine for hours but on other days it will crash multiple times.
I just want to point out something; my graphics card driver is up to date. My air vents are completely clear. The temperature is stable. I have put the power management to maximum. I play with a battery in and the laptop is plugged in. This has also happened from a cold start.
During the restart i am given no advanced warning. The laptop just turns off (no beeps, no blue screen) and restarts.
I have never posted here before and i would really appreciate your help.
I know this has been a problem in the past with this model as i have searched forums for solutions but I cant find one.
If you know of a solution I would be very grateful.
Thanks

Hi
Gaming issues are always very difficult themes because nobody can say exactly if its caused by game <-> GPU driver compatibility problems or notebook (hardware) issues.
You said you had this issue playing two games but does it happens playing other games or running other applications (no games)???
In your case I recommend checking some gaming forums about StarCraft and WoW.
Maybe you will find some more details about that.
At the other hand the unit supports an NVIDIA GeForce GT 230M graphic chip.
Some people said that nVIdia driver 8.16.11.8973 would run stable

Satellite A500-17x restarting while playing games

Hello,
I got this laptop for christmas, and have recently purchased games through steam, it is then when I came to play Call of Duty 4 that the laptop just randomly restarted itself. At first I thought that it must of overheated, but then it was not hot at all, and had only just been switched on. I then thought it could of been the game conflicting with the computer, so I tried other games such as Counterstrike: Source, no luck it still randomly restarted. Ive played for hours without it turning off then other times just minutes. The laptop is ok when im just surfing the internet etc. but restarts when playing games. I have read other forums expressing the same problem, but have yet to find a solution. I have updated the display drivers from the Toshiba website, from nVidia but still not working.
Please Help :)

I believe I know the solution.
I've been looking over this forum for a few months with the same problem, looking for developments that might help me solve mine, so I feel it right that I should post here telling you how mine's fixed.
I sent mine off from where I bought it (PC World) for repair, twice. The first time all they did was clean out the fan, but sending it back with the same problem, they changed the motherboard, also known as the mainboard, and it seems to have fixed the problem. I have evidence why this is so from wikipedia. Some of the major functions of a motherboard are:
- slots for expansion cards (these interface to the system via the buses supported by the chipset)
- power connectors, which receive electrical power from the computer power supply and distribute it to the CPU, chipset, main memory, and expansion cards.
I always assumed with it switching off on the AC power supply WHILE PLAYING GAMES, there must be some sort of problem with the link between the power and the "expansion cards" e.g graphics and video cards, and it seems that this "link" is indeed the motherboard, so in manufacturing, it sure seems like the model of the motherboard used by Toshiba may have had a minor fault for the model that causes this shut down, unfortunately.
So far there has been no problem using the laptop while playing games, and it seems to be all fine so far!
I hope this answer helped a lot in sorting out your problems, good luck and happy gaming! :)

IPod restarting while transfering music?

I have tried searching but have not found any fixes for this... is there any fix known?
I purchased it today and every time I try to synch my library it transfers anywhere from 100-400 songs and then the ipod restarts and when it is detected again by the computer it acts as if it is the first time it has been connected to the computer. Except that at the bottom of the screen where it shows how much is used it shows how much music should be on there (for example it will show 4gb used but it wont show any files) so i have to restore it and then start over.
i seem to be able to transfer 100-200 songs at a time without any problemsin the manual update mode but it is a waste of time.

Both of you, check out this...

Can't connect to my wifi on ipod 4s while playing candy crush

I have never had a problem connecting to my home wifi while playing candy crush until 2 dyas ago. It tells me my facebook session has expired and to log in again. I have never used facebook on this device or while playing candy crush and I won't. Facebook isn't even installed on this device. I can't access the app store either. The internet is working fine on everything else, safari, updating apps etc. Connection is excellent. I updated Candy crush when this started but it didn't change anything.
Help!

My desktop (M73 SFF) keeps power down and restart while playing games

I bought M73 small form factor with Intel core i5-4570 and 4GB RAM with integrated video in Sep. 2014.
Recently, it keeps being shut down while playing game (starcraft 2).
Is this related to hit sink issue? graphic? or both?
How do I fix this problem? Should I replace hardware?
Thanks!

Probably heat related. You can monitor the temps using Hwmonitor or SpeedFan. Your BIOS may have a fan setting, that you can adjust for better cooling performance (acoustic performance is the default.) And check that your BIOS and drivers are up to date, using Lenovo System Update, including the optional ones.

IPod continues to restart while playing

So everytime I'm scrolling through my songs on shuffle, I can get through about 10 or 15 songs and then my iPod goes black, and restarts itself. I've updated to the latest iPod software and have even restored my iPod, and this still continues to happen. What can I do??

Leave it plugged into your computer for awhile, post back and tell me what happens afterward.

IPod freezes while playing

Hello, I'm having some troubles with my iPod.
I've had it for a few months now, and whenever I play certain songs, my iPod stops playing part of the way through the song and lags severely when I try to push any buttons. When this happens, I can hear and feel things happening inside of it, as if it's working or loading something. If I just let it do what it feels it needs to do, then it starts playing again eventually, usually after about a minute. It's not the files because all of my songs work fine in iTunes. Another thing I should probably note is that right after it starts working again, the battery indicator drops to near empty, then goes back up to a probably more accurate level after a few minutes.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Hi, I found this solution on another message board. I am trying it today. Please let me know how it works for you.
Guess what ... i finally found the solution!
The Mac technician said i'll need to replace the board which is more than half the price of my IPOD. So i decided to give it my best.
all this while i was treatin it like an IPOD & was thinkin that the harddisk could have a problem i.e. bad sector something. But then I treated it like a hard disk. So I’m guessing that this should work with all IPODs that come with harddisk.
I’m using windows XP, so I don’t know how it’s gonna work for Mac users.
But I guess they kinda have similar applications like scan disk/error checking.
So this is what you do… I’m gonna tell ya all I did.
Backup your music.
Remove all IPOD Application (i.e. I Tunes, Ipod updater … etc)
Restart your computer
Plug you ipod and format it (Goto “My Computer” right click on your IPOD and click on format. Do not select “Quick Format”. The normal format took about 20 mins on my 30GB. File system should be Fat32)
Once you’ve formatted your IPOD unplug it from the computer & turn it off (hold “play” button for a few seconds and it should go off)
Installation
Get the CD that came along with your IPOD use that to install I Tune.
As you insert the Disk, the autorun starts the installation wizard while that’s progressing plug in your ipod. And your computer will re-install it.
After the installation is complete your IPOD wil have the the factory settings & the firmware. Even after you format your IPOD it still has the factory firmware.
Note. The old I Tunes (green icon) might not work because you had a newer version on your computer before.
This is where I disconnected my ipod and scrolled around played games, tried in and out of menu’s and it was working perfectly. That’s when I installed the new iTunes.
But I did not update the firmware because that’s what caused my IPOD to start freezing.
Hope this works for ya guys. I know how it feels without music. I’m so addicted to it!
If you have any questions feel free to email me [email protected]
