Ipod shuffle will turn on. then it turns back off and will not work. it charges but will not play any music?

My ipod shuffle will not work. it turns on briefly then turns off and i cannot hear anything. my earbuds work, it holds a charge, but no sound?

I would start by working through the 5 R's of troubleshooting to rule out the possibility of corrupted software.

    Try this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up

  • My Spry Accordion will not work In IE but will in Opera

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm having a problem with my accordion spry widget in a website that I'm working on. Bear in mind theres's a lot of things to fix but it's in the initial stages. What happens is, if you go under the heading, business and then training you will see an FAQ section. You'll notice that the tabs are all open and it's just not functioning correctly in IE, Chrome and Firefos but it is working in Chrome. (I Haven't tried in Safari as my computer freezes ??) I've included the link and code below.

    You not are using the latest Spry files
    The latest  version of the Adobe Spry Framework is 1.6.1, this is the same version  that ships with Dreamweaver CS4. If you use Dreamweaver CS3 (uses Spry  1.4), its wise to upgrade your files to the latest version. This can  easily be done using the Spry Updater that can be found here.
    If you replace
    <script src="http://www.adelxt.net/SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js" type="text/javascript">
    with
    <script src="http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/widgets/accordion/SpryAccordion.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    you will notice that it works as it should.

  • Some of the buttons on web pages will not work with firefox but will with IE, is there a fix or do i need to uninstall firefox

    going through my account at verizon pay bill get to a submit button, it will not work. go back to site with IE everthing find. Happened mant times before, but sometimes i restart the page and it works, not the last time, i had to use IE

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.''

  • Hello, I have recently purchased Apple TV, and sometimes it will play a song, and then when that song ends and switches to a new song it won't play, any ideas how to resolve this?

    One song will play perfectly fine, but then when it switches songs it seems like it loads and then continues to load and won't play the next song! I turn home sharing on and off in itunes, and it will play a song and then the loading process repeats itself

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • When trying to load onto my sons ipod shuffle i keep getting the message 'the ipod update server could not be contacted'. The ipod has never been used and has been sitting in a drawer.  It seem to charge but I cannot load any music for him.

    Should say, I have tried altering the LAN setting to 'automatically detect settings', updating itunes etc but nothing has worked.  I have a very unhappy 6 year old!

    You should not get that message if you are simply trying to load the shuffle with songs from your iTunes library.  If iTunes is trying to Update or Restore the shuffle, and you get that message, try the suggestions in this article

  • I just downloaded the latest Windows updates, now videos online will not work on Firefox but will on other browsers, anyone else having this problem?

    After downloading the latest Windows updates I found that I could not play videos on YouTube or at other sites. Switching to other browsers I found I could play those same videos now without any problem. So I did a System Restore to determine if the Windows updates had affected video play using Firefox. The restore point was set to the day before the Windows download occurred. After System Restore was completed I could now play videos using the Firefox browser.
    To make sure that the Windows update was the problem, I again downloaded the newest Windows Updates and once again could not play videos on any site using Firefox. System restore was used to again reset my computer to the day before and once again the videos would ow play in the Firefox browser.

    Actually your reply took me in another direction and I found this on the Adobe site:
    The RealPlayer extension for Firefox, Downloading & Recording, has compatibility issues with Flash Player 11.3. If RealPlayer is installed Flash Player content does not appear. YouTube provides an error message when you try to watch a video.
    As a workaround, do the following:
    Start RealPlayer.
    Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner and select Preferences.
    Select Download & Recording in the left menu and deselect Enable Web Download & Recording for These Installed Browsers option.
    Click OK and restart Mozilla Firefox.
    Once I followed this I could now again play videos in Firefox.

  • My Zen Stone will turn on, and charge, but it wont play the mus

    my zen stone will turn on, and charge, but it wont play the music.......it charges and everything, but i try to play the music, and the green light will go on, but it wont blink and play music like its supposed to........and when i try to turn it off, i cant so i have to reset the thing....PLEASE HELP!!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. I suspect you have portions of the digitizer disabled because of the broken screen. (conductors are open)

  • I have just recently installed ios6 to my iPad 3 an iPhone 4 my iPhone works fine but my iPad is not working at all I can not get a response from it, it seemed to download an then install but did not reset and turn on and will not turn on HELP!! Withdrawa

    Hi there,
    Firstly, try a hard reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears.
    If this doesn't work, try restoring your device. Put it in recovery mode if iTunes doesn't recognise it, and restore it from there. I have linked to instructions below.

    Let me know if this helps,

  • My ipod shuffle 4 generation turns off alone, it's charged but cant keep playing no way.

    why my ipod shuffle turns of on it's own??? it's fully charged but after about 15 seconds of music it turns off alone!!!

    If those iPhone headphones (with remote control buttons) were an older type, they may be designed differently.  Someone else reported a similar problem here, and it turned out that person was using the headphones from the older 3rd gen shuffle (which also has remote control buttons). 
    The current Apple headphones with remote control buttons (the "EarPods") should work the 4th gen shuffle.
