Ipod Shuffle suddenly emptied after two to three days not use..

I had a problem which is my ipod shuffle suddenly emptied after two to three days i left in my room. What's the problem actually can be turn be like this since it's the first time i through it..please send me an email regarding this at [email protected] Thank You!

Okay, and thanks for re-posting your photos. I have to agree that it definitely does look like crimping and would expect any continuity checks run on it to show an open or two. That would certainly explain your symptoms, but it's not the answer for all such cases, i.e., BLD, being reported here.
I've now purchased two 'broken' Shuffle's on eBay, both coming off of M$ systems and reporting the blinkies. The first was Alive on Arrival and is still living happily on a daughter's eMac. The second was totally dead, with no reaction at all to anything I did; it's now disassembled, with no evidence of your crimping on the ribbon cable, while I mull over buying an LI battery and getting someone to solder it in for me.
In your place I'd certainly be taking my evidence to Apple and pointing out that, at the end of the day, it was just a matter of pure luck that it managed to last as long with this defect as it did. I think you should be able to convince them to give you some sort of satisfaction on this, but appreciate your desire not to go through the bother of it.

  • Why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs?

    I had my iPod Shuffle for about a month now and it's already causing me trouble.
    I would play a couple of songs, but when I go to change it, it stops working. I turn it off and on again only to have it take me back to where I started off at (e.g. Let's say I have 100 songs, I start at 50 and I get to 55 before it shuts off. When I turn it back on, it starts at 50 all over again). This process would happen over and over again with seemingly no end.
    So my question is, why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs and how can I fix it?
    I already tried using the iTunes troubleshooting guide, but nothing worked.
    Details -
    4th Generation
    I only use it at the gym or when I'm running
    I've only used the Apple products that came with it so far
           (e.g. charger, headphones, etc.)
    881 MB are still left
    Music stops randomly, no common number or pattern

    I had the same problem, I purchased a new ipod shuffle, followed the instructions but it would stop after a few songs and I would have to shut it off, wait and turn it back on and it would go back to the same song and then once again, after a few songs it would shut off. I returned the ipod and got another one, same thing happened. This is how I resolved the issue.
    1. open itunes, make sure its up to date, then connect your shuffle to your pc
    2.on the left of the itunes window, select your ipod, then at the top select music then check the sync box and select "selected playlists"
    3.then go back and click on your ipod on the left, a message will appear just select apply
    all of your music should be emptied from your ipod.
    4.delete all of your playlists on the left, this will not delete anything from your library. Delete the "purchased" playlist under itunes store on the left as well, once again this will not delete anything from your library
    5.There should be an arrow just in front of your ipod, click on this arrow and you should see your music file for the ipod appear, this should be the only file that you see, everything else should be deleted.
    6. go to your music library and check only the songs that you want to load into your ipod. Double click on each song to make sure that they all play.
    If you find a song that does not play you should be asked to authorize it, don't waste your time that did not solve the issue for me, instead cancel to authorize the song and then delete the song and move it to recycle bin. Once the song is deleted a cloud should appear, click on the cloud and download the song again, when done, make sure the song plays and that it is checked.
    7.After you have made sure that all of the songs play and are checked, click on your ipod once more, located to the left, check the box  "sync only checked songs" then from the top select music. In the music window select "sync music' and then select "entire music Library"
    8. Go back to the left and click on the arrow in front of your ipod, you should see the music file, click on the music file and you should see all of your music being loaded to your ipod.
    9. When all of the music is done loading, eject your ipod by clicking on the arrow located after the battery symbol where your ipod appears on the left
    10. Turn on your ipod and scroll through your songs to make sure that the problem is resolved.
    Not sure if all of this was necessary but it worked for me.

  • My 2nd generation iPod Shuffle suddenly quit - Fix?

    My 2nd generation iPod Shuffle suddenly quit on me just recently with no warning.
    The lights indications say t has no music on it but connecting it to the computer shows the loaded tunes. I tried a full reset and reloaded the tunes but still no joy.
    Further reading suggests either a dead logic board or a sick battery.
    As a last resort I am wondering if anyone knows of a software approach before I get the tools out and start pulling it apart.

    I've found my own answer...
    I was getting the green-orange-green-orange sequence of lights which all the info I had found to date said was the "No music" code. As I could see the MP3s on the iPod in iTunes I knew there was were MP3s on it.
    Various knowledge seraches I did suggested adud battery or dead logic board - both terminal problems for this model unless you have spare parts ( which I do, courtesy of friends who have retired their Gen 2 iPods).
    Then I found that under recent versions of iTunes (V 8 or later) it won't recognise podcasts or audio books as being present if you have the iPod set on shuffle.
    I only ever listen to podcast and audio books on my Gen 2 AND had bumped the mode switch onto shuffle resulting in an apparently dead iPod. Put the  mode switch back to continuous and it's working again. Stupid !
    I love Apple products  but I'm also a firm believer in the principle of "If it ain't broke don't fix it". All too often I seen Apple 'fix' something that wasn't broken over the 25 years I've been an Apple user.

  • Can you use more than one email address on one account as to enable two or three devices to use imsg????

    Can you use more than one email address on one account as to enable two or three devices to use imsg as when i add new email address's in settings it just says veriyfying and nothing happens????

    If I read your question right, yes.
    My pad has two e mail addresses, and my phone has a phone number as well as a e mail address.  For each device you can add additional 'receive at' addresses in settings.
    Note, when you add a new address, apple will send an e mail to that new address that you need to respond to, to show that it is a valid address.  So look in the inbox of that e mail account for the verification e mail.  Note further, some spam filters think that the verification e mail might be spam, so if it does not show up in your in box, look in any spam file you might have.
    in my case, the verification e mail came within a few minutes of declaring the new address.
    The multiple address are useful if you have more than one device under your apple id, and want to be able to send stuff to that particular device.

    I would try the router reset. That's sadly all I got.

  • Is the ipod shuffle or nano good for exercise if you just use the clip on the unit, and connect to your shorts?  if so, does it feel like it's too loose, might fall off?

    is the ipod shuffle or nano good for exercise if you just use the clip on the unit, and connect to your shorts?  if so, does it feel like it's too loose, might fall off?

    I often use my shuffle while exercising, cleaning, and just generally going about my day. Never once has it come unclipped exept for when I got the earbud cord caught on something and got said earbuds yanked out of my ears. I have permanently solved that problem by simply running the cord under my shirt. Works like a charm! I can't answer you about the nano, though I'd say it has a higher likelihood of coming off as it is a bit heavier.

  • Ipod cutting off songs. itunes plays songs just fine. not using "match."

    ipod cutting off songs. itunes plays songs just fine. not using "match."
    reformatted ipod, resynced, same problem.
    help!

    I have also had the same problem...
    The songs appear to be random, and when I plug my iPod into the computer it is fixed. Sure enough, a monthish later, it happens again.
    When my songs get cut off, they are stopped exactly half-way through. Apparently, the iPod thinks that is how long they are, because it plays the time that it shows (the total time only goes to helf of what it normally is).
    This does not seem to be a matter of old software, as I am always up-to-date on iPod software, and this has been happening to me with version 1.4.1
    I have not Restored my iPod, but apparently that will not help (according to the other posts).
    I hope somebody can answer this (although I've posted it twice before with no luck, so...)

  • IPod Shuffle suddenly won't work

    Hi all,
    To all of you having troubles with your Shuffle.
    I posted a few weeks ago about my Shuffle that stopped showing up on the Mac, in iTunes or anywhere else, then stopped charging.
    I also said that I saw hundreds of posts on different forums about that problem, wich show up after about a year of use of a Shuffle.
    Well, after having tried everything imaginable, I decided to declare my Shuffle useless. So I delicatly opened it. And I immediatly saw where the problem came from. The connection thread that links the usb plug to the iPod was broken, because of an inapropriate folding. I guess it's a construction defect.
    See pictures there: http://web.mac.com/jm.oriot/iWeb/inge%26jm/iPodShuffle.html
    I'm an Apple fan (and client) since more than 10 years and never experienced any problem at all with any hardware of software signed by Apple that I bought. This is the first time and though I'm very disapointed (and a bit angry) to see such a short life for an Apple product I still love Apple. But still... 109€ is not nothing for me. I expected more than a year of use.
    The Shuffle was a great idea (so small, so light, so handy, so nice...) but apparently suffered a poor construction. So bad.
    ... sigh...

    Okay, and thanks for re-posting your photos. I have to agree that it definitely does look like crimping and would expect any continuity checks run on it to show an open or two.

  • My iPod shuffle stops playing after a few songs, then it won't start again.

    My iPod shuffle will stop playing after a few songs which is very frustrating while out walking.  I end up having to shut it off for about a minute or two and then turn it back on.  Sometimes it will start playing again, but it will start playing the same songs over again.  I can't go forward or go back.  When I try to skip a song, all I get is dead air.  I took it back to an Apple store and they replaced it free of charge; which I thought was great... that is until the new iPod started doing the exact same thing.  I've downloaded songs from the iTunes store as well as songs off of my personal CD's.  I've tried deleting all the songs and re-installing them... nothing seems to solve this problem.  I know it only costs $50; but if Apple can't get a $50 item to work; why in the world would I want to invest more money in an Apple product?  It's a good thing this was a gift.... I'm just not happy with this product and there doesn't seem to be a good explanation for this.

    I Just ran into the same issue:
    My iPod shuffle 4th gen would just stop playing, and I had to turn it off, wait 10 secs and the turn it back on.
    Then it would get stuck at the same place.
    I Even exchanged the iPod for a new one since I had just bought it.
    re-synced my playlist and same issue!
    did a restore as described above - same issue.
    Solution in my case:
    one of the songs in my playlist seems was "corrupt". Even trying to play the song in iTunes on the PC did not work, kept getting the message "This computer is not authorized ....", even though the computer is authorized.
    So somehow that song being on the shuffle crashes it.
    After I removed that song from the playlist and synced again, the problem was resolved!
    So try to play all the songs that you want to sync to your shuffle on your computer, maybe you have one song that was not downloaded properly or is otherwise corrupt.
    - Deleted the song from the local library
    - re-downloaded the song from iTunes store
    - now it was playing fine on the PC in iTunes
    - re-added it to the playlist, re-synced iPod shuffle
    all is working fine now, shuffle no longer freezes.
    hope that helps someone else....

  • IPod Shuffle stop working after upgrade to iTunes 7.02

    I upgrade to iTunes 7.02 after it prompted me so many times. My Ipod shuffle has 512MB, somehow iTunes 7.02 format it as 34GB, yes, 34GB!! I wouldn't mind it so much if it still works, but it doesn't.
    What I have tried so far, I uninstall 7.02 and put back 6.05, still it shows 34GB. It does recognize the Ipod shuffle and allows me to put songs in it, except they don't play.
    I download the Ipod shuffle reset utility, but it doesn't recognize the IPod. I am really bumped on this one, nothing to listen to on my long commute.

    Hey man... I know what, you were right! I did some more research and ended up looking for any answaers on the Digidesign site. I downloaded the latest version of CoreAudio for my plataform (ProTools TDM Mix Plus with OS X 10.3.9) which is CoreAudio 6.9 and it seems to have solved all of my problems! At least iTunes and QT are opening again and seem to be working good so far. PT also seems to be runing with no problems!! Thanks again for the hint!
