Ipod screws up all the time!

ok well i am not so sure of what to do or anything. so my ipod i got it at wal-mart about 5 months ago and i dont have a clue about the warrenty thing if it came with one or not and about 2 months ago it started screwing up. when u turn the volume up it goes up louder when u turn the volume down it goes up louder too. and sometimes my ipod will just not shut off and sometimes the light will just come on like i changed the song without me even touching it! my ipod is driving me crazy!!! thanks!

your iPod comes with a 1 year warranty.
You can start by searching under the "support" tab for the 5R's.
That should be helpful.

  • 3rd-Gen Ipod Touch Overheating All the Time!

    I have a 3rd-Gen Ipod Touch, 32gb that I bought over a year ago. I've never had a problem with it before until about two weeks ago and it's concerning me quite a bit. Whenever I use it, within 5 minutes it becomes very hot, mostly on the bottom near where it charges. Within 10 minutes, the heat has spread throughout the whole device and has become so hot that I can no longer hold it. This happens all the time, not when it's charging. I'm worried that it will overheat to the point that I can no longer use it.
    Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a way that I can fix this? Do I have to have the battery replaced or something?
    I appreciate any feedback, and thanks.

    Sounds like a bad battery. Search ebay, there are people who provide the replacement service for as low as $19.

  • Brand new iPod keeps freezes all the time, Why?

    The problem started early this year with my old iPod classic (couple years old) was beginning to freeze all the time so I just thought it was time to get a new one so I did but the same probably happened straight away and just just died after 2 weeks of constant resting so I got a brand new replacement and the same thing is happening to this one too, my question is why does this still happen and how to stop it?

    You are still under warranty.  Call Apple Care, get a case number and keep it handy.

  • Why is the ipod screen on all the time when plugged in

    and conversely, why does the screen only show the time when you are actually walking around playing music?
    Is there any way to change that? I want to see what song is playing, not what time it is or whatever that number on the screen means.
    thanks
    Bob

    I don't want it to stay ON, ie lit -- I just want the information on the screen to stay the same, is that so hard? The time is on that screen anyway, why not give us an option to leave it that way? The battery lasts plenty long compared to older ipods.

  • My ipod says disconnect all; the time now i have updated and restored it

    I just opened itunes & connected my ipod. I restored my ipod because i deleted the songs from my ipod and updated it but they didnt come of so i used iupod updater and now it just say "do not disconnect" but it is not showing "do not disconnect" in itunes, but it is on my ipod.This is my second ipod and the same happened last time. can someone please help?. Thanks

    If you automatically update your ipod, here's what to do, connect your ipod and WAIT untill itunes knows it's there, then go to edit, preferences, then go to ipod, then if you auto update it, make sure that the box that says "enable disk use" is unchecked. Then click ok. If you manually update, slect auto-update without the "enable disk use" selected.

  • 30gb ipod pauses music all the time????

    I've been having this problem for about 6 months where the ipod will just pause its self when i'm walking but it mostly happens when i'm snowboarding. i've managed to determin that its the plug into the ipod, when its moved around, not unpluging just like left or right, it'll pause the song. does anyone know if there is a setting that will pause songs if it detects movement and if so how to turn it off, before i end up throwing the ipod off a cliff?

    see if this helps
    u]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”

  • IPod Mini continually skips tracks all the time every half a second!

    My iPod Mini continually skips tracks all the time every half a second. The only thing that stops it is if you press pause but once you press play off it goes again. This means noi music is able to be played because it's always skipping. The menu button works as does the backlight if you hold the menu button down. The enter button works and the touch pad navigation also works. Both skip buttons have no effect on the unstoppable skipping. Can anybody help or at least verify the problem with other users of simular problems and if they were able to fix them simply, without having to go to an Apple dealer (it's out of warrenty i think)Any help would be appreciated.

  • IPod touch is fully charged all the time

    Hi!
    I have a Sony FM/AM Clock Radio (Model ICF-CS10iP) that plays iPod/iPhone, and when I connect the iPod to the radio in order to play it, the battery is recharged very fast, so that my iPod is always fully recharged. In other words, I don't have time to spend my time listening to it with the earphones, consuming the battery till it runs out, then I would have to recharge again. It simply is full all the time. Is there any problem in not having this cicle of consuming and recharging? Thanks!

    Yes. For maximum battery life, Apple recommends fully discharging/charging the iPod at least once a month.

  • IPod touch applications crash all the time

    I've been really happy with my iPod touch, but recently it has started crashing all the time - generally speaking, an app will run for about 30secs - 1 min before crashing, though this is more like 5-10secs if I'm also playing music. The app crashes and back we go to the home screen, though music will carry on playing seamlessly. It seems to affect all applications (there is nothing on my iPod that doesn't crash regularly now), so I suspect an OS bug rather than individual apps being at fault.
    I still have 2Gb free space but I wonder whether it's possible the device is running out of memory and just crashing the app as a result?
    I have the official 2.1 release installed, no jailbreaking or anything.

    Hi,
    First thing to do is try reset, restore etc. See here [5R's Trouble Shoot|http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/troubleshooting/ipodtouch>.
