IPod stop to work by itself

Hello,
I have an iPod Touch second generation, 8 GB (but I have only used 3GB) since 16 months. I have enjoyed my iPod and the facilities it offer. I have noticed that my iPod has not working as it usually does. It is too slow, and when I use it to browse or listen music the screen shut and the application stop to work or the screen turns black. I can not delete the old messages from the application so I decided to close the app. I have not used all the capacity and I try to install all updates that it needs also I uninstall the workless app, but it still giving me some troubles. If someone now what is happening and can share a recommendation I really appreciate it.

Try in order:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restoring the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

IPod screen not working / turning itself on and on by itself

Yesterday I took my iPod outside as normal and tried to use the touchscreen to play music. It did not react when my fingers touched the screen. The buttons on the top and the bottom were working normally, but when I could not for example use my fingers to unlock the iPod as it did not react.
About an hour later I could manage to move the 'unlock' button half way across the screen but the top half and the bottom right do not react to my fingers. This morning it keeps doing the same, but now it keeps turning itself on and off and music occasionally plays by itself and the only way I can stop it is resetting it.
Any ideas what I can do?

A corrupted program or a program that is not compatable with your device is doing this. To fix:
To fix this what we need to do is hard reset your device. The instructions to do that is here http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 this tells you how to do all types of resets. Also, what we need to do is rename your backup folder. What this folder is, it hold all your programs from the last time you synced your PC. On your computer go here My Computer--> C drive --> Program files --> Palm/PalmOne--> your hotsync user name --> and right click on your backup folder and rename it to "backup.old" Resync your device to the same user name and you will get all your contacts, calendar, tasks, and memos.
You can install the programs again but make sure they are compatible with the device. Also try one program again and wait 24 hours to see if the same thing happens again. This way you know what program is causing the issue.

Ipod stopped working with iTrip

My iPod stopped working with my iTrip very mysteriously. I left it in the car for 2 hours (as I always do at work) and it worked when I left and wouldn't work when I went to drive home. I've replaced the iTrip and know that it works with another iPod (identical to mine and bought at the exact same time).
Does anyone know if there's way to fix this?

I just started having issues with my iPod as well. It is paired with my JVC receiver through an iPod adapter. I can normally control my iPod through the JVC once it is connected, but the last few days I have had to control it through the iPod itself. The screen on the receiver says connecting, but never does unless I do manually.( pressing play on the iPod). I can still see song titles, but no control. IE pause, next or previous songs. Nothing seems to work, and have treid powering both off then back on. Is this an update issue that wont let them pair anymore? I also tried a friends iphone and seemed to work fine with the JVC, so the receiver is not the issue.

How can I make the ipod stop itself after playing one song?

How can I make the ipod stop itself after playing one song?

When playing a song, are the controls at the top of the screen there? (Genius, Shuffle, Loop?)
If not, tap the center of the page once to expose them
now keep tapping the circle on the left part of the exposed controls untill a one (1) appears...

5th Gen ipod stopped working , connected to Alpine CDA117

Out of nowhere the ipod stopped working when hooked directly to the Alpine CDA117.
It worked this morning when I pulled out of the driveway and drove to my shop . I did not unplug it when I arrived, it stayed in the car hooked up as it does often.
When I got back in the car about 2 hours later it was not working . It recognizes the ipod , shows the song , playlist etc but no volume and it's not "playing" so it's sort of on "pause", but not showing that it really is "paused"
Apple looked at it , thought there might be some dust on the contacts , cleaned it , tried it in the store and it worked fine both with earbuds and through speakers.
It works in my wife's car via the same hookup.
My wife's ipod works in my car hooked up just as mine would be .
The guy at Best Buy who hooked it up , hooked his up and his worked fine.
Firmware is up to date .
I literally did nothing to it once I arrived and my shop and then got back in the car 2 hours later.
Help me !
I have a 3 hour ride up to the Berkshires on Saturday and will go bonkers without my music .

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I did try that by doing everything the manual book said:
1. connect iPod to a power outlet using the iPod Power adapter (I did)
2. Toggle the hold switch on and off...yes I did turn on and off and on and off..
3. press and hold the select and menu buttons..for at least 6 seconds (I did 1 min and nothing happened still) until the apple logo appears.
Besides the software failure, the power is still on ... and I CAN'T TURN IT OFF neither!!!!!

My ipod stopped working a few years ago, it said i had to connect to itunes to restore, as i then got an iphone i never bothered to sort it, I am now trying to and hwne i connect to itunes it says it must be restored, After ive restored it nothing happens, at first it says "ipod has been restored and is restarting, it will appear in the itunes window once it has restarted" so i wait but nothing happens and eventually it comes up with the same message telling me the ipod needs to be restored?

Errors when updating leads to corrupt system files and this may be your problem. If you're using windows, connect your device to PC and run any third party app like Syncios. If it detects, you maybe in luck and try to back-up your data if possible. I hope that it won't and if doesn't, there is no other way to recover files. You should be restoring with iTunes and all data will be erased, or else your device may become unusable.

I uploaded last release of CC (05/28/2014) but it did a mess on the entire pc: when I launched Photoshop it appeared a driver error on my graphic hardware; internet stopped to work and photoshop itself didn't respond.

Hi, this morning I installed last upgrade of CC (05/28/2014) but it did a mess on the entire pc: when I launched Photoshop it appeared a driver error on my graphic hardware (I checked, everything was up to date nd correctly working) and Photoshop didn't respond; internet stopped to work too.
The only way was to uninstall The CC App and create a restore point after uninstalling (It wasn't possible restore a previous one BEFORE the upgrade of this morning....)
My Processor is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4500U CPU @ GHz 2.40 GHz
RAM is 8GB
What do I have to do?
Reinstall it without upgrading it?
I would really appreciate that upgrades would be tested before being released.... -_-

Front camera on ipod stopped working

Okay, so my ipod 5 was working perfectly fine and I was on snapchat and it glitched out (as you know apps do) and when I got back into it I noticed there was no switch to the front camera, and the back camera worked fine. After that I went to my normal camera and found that the back camera stilled worked on this but the front camera didn't and I couldn't switch back to the back camera afterwards (like it froze). My question is DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW I CAN FIX THIS AND IF THEY KNOW HOW MUCH IT MIGHT COST!?! I have tried a bunch of different stuff like resetting it and doing a hard reset and it's still not working. Please help if you can and thanks so much!

Try:

IPod not recognised/working/turning on etc;

I have a brand new 2GB iPod shuffle, and connected it to my laptop (Windows XP) following the quick start manual with no problems. However after a couple of minutes the iPod disappeared from the (latest) iTunes menu, at first I thought it had gone into some sort of sleep mode, but now it doesn't work at all.
When I plug it in to USB ports (which I know work as other devices use them fine) there's nothing to show for it, I tried resetting the iPod through my laptop but it said there wasn't one connected, it doesn't show up on iTunes, on the Safely Remove Hardware thing or anywhere.
Also when I turn it on no light comes on at all, there's never a light even when it's plugged in. I've tried everything on this site to no avail, and am finding contact details so I can ask a real person at Apple directly impossible to find on here.
After reading other posts it seems many people have had similar problems, does anyone know either how to solve this or how to contact Apple? Or is it easier to just return it and find a more reliable mp3 player?
Many Thanks

If you are using an USB hub, try connecting it directly to the computer with no other USB devices connected (except for a standard keyboard and mouse). A powered USB hub will work, but depending on what else you have pulled in, there may be a lack of power. If it works by itself on the computer, try adding your other devices to see when it stops working.
Try using the iPod Reset Utility.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1238
If the utility does not recognize it, and you've tested the USB port with another device to ensure it is working, I would return it for a replacement.

IPod (5G) and iPod (Classic) Not Working

_*iPod 5G:*_
I bought the iPod 5G 2-3years back ago. It was working all fine. Few months back I accidentally dropped the iPod. After this, the iPod was not working at all. None of the buttons works. But i am still able to put in on HOLD or even restart/put to disk mode. I am using it as a 80gb External Hard Drive.
*iPod Classic (120GB):*
I bought this iPod from Bangkok in December 2008. Later, in March, used to restart by itself and freeze suddenly when a track is being played. I had some tracks on it then. Whenever i try to play any track it showed the time 00:00 and started to play that particular track after this 'click' sort of sound from the inside, possibly from the hard drive. It even freezes during the RESTART process. So I had to bring it to a stable condition by restarting it during it is being restarted. My computer is not able to identify it. I have tried to restore it a couple of times now. Sometimes, I am able to get through the RESTORE process but most of the time my mac/ipod freeze together and wont come back to normal until and unless the usb wire is pulled out forcefully. Well, whenever iTunes recognizes it, I try to sync music. I have about 200 tracks in this one playlist. Whenever i try to sync it, the ipod freezes together with my mac. The sync process stops without copying all the tracks to my ipod. After that the screen goes black and then comes back with a dull APPLE logo displayed.
+Information on iPod Shuffle:+
My dad is going to Bangkok tomorrow. I asked him to get me a Shuffle. The new one that talks. I use the ipod mainly in my car (using the aux). There are no buttons on the Shuffle as everything in situated in cable of the ear phones. How am i going to use the controls if my connect the AUX (from my car's stereo) to my iPod? I wont be able to change tracks, pause or even shut down the ipod. Another thing is that whenever the ear phone plug is disconnected from the ipod, while it is playing a track, the track gets automatically paused.
This is very long, consumed a lot of time for you to read/for me to write. I guess making it longer would help me to kill time as I am running a ZERO OUT format on the 2nd ipod I own. :P
Thank You,
Samin

The classic bought in December 2008 would still be covered by warranty. Have you arranged for service for it?
