IPod Touch 2.0 Crashes 3rd Party Applications, Erases Music and Videos.

I don't know if this has been happening to some people. I hear it's mainly for FW 2.0.1, but I have 2.0 and I'm afraid to upgrade. Listen to this:
It's been over a little over a month since I upgraded my iPod to 2.0. I'm browsing through my apps from the AppStore. All of a sudden I open an application my iPod reboots, crashes. Not only that, but I had to wait at least 4min for the iPod to reboot. It *****.
After it finally reboot, I opened up a 3rd party application, it opens the main screen, and crashes, bringing me back to the SpringBoard.
This happens to all of my 3rd Party Apps.
BUT THAT'S NOT ALL: MY MUSIC AND VIDEOS HAVE BEEN ERASED.
When I plug the iPod into iTunes on my Mac, it thinks the iPod still has music and videos on it. It ***** having to restore every single day.
Please help me, anybody. I know this has been an issue for those with 2.0.1. Here are my questions:
-Should I be afraid to upgrade to 2.0.1?
-How can I stop the crashing of 3rd Party Apps, as well as the erase of music and videos?
-Can I do this, so I don't have to restore?
Any help would be appreciated,
Thank you in advance,

This is happening to a lot of people. Check out the discussions all the way back even prior to August.
No one seems to know the cause but there are many solutions offered to try. You will have to restore or do a full recovery depending on your situation. Again...lots of advice on how to do both in prior discussions.
Do not restore from a back up. Rather, set your ipod up as a new ipod and give it a new name. Begin by loading your music and videos etc. from your stored library on your pc. You'll find your itouch works like new.
Next before loading in any applications, review the app store pages selling each app and determine which ones have bugs and crashing issues they are working on or have corrected in their app updates. I've narrowed it down to possibly Advent, Aurora Feint or Converter in my case. We have over 90 free and purchased apps in our library but we have kept it to a bare minimum or 25-30 apps.
I've also read somewhere in these discussions that the larger mb apps could be at issue with the 2.0 and 2.0.1 updates and something to do with firmware updates? Sorry but I'm not real saavy with the technical side of it but i can tell you that between our two ipod touches we restored/recovered over 16 times from 8/04 to 8/10 because of crashes.
So far we've been lucky and have been up an running bug free for 3 days. Also, one app started acting strange after i tested it upon syncing so i connected back up to the pc and removed it...that's when i checked online and saw it too had crash issues they were working on.
They say you can have as many apps as you want on your itouch, so far i'm not testing that theory again...we're taking it slow and choose only what we really really want on our ipod...some say stay away from the gimmicky apps but we have a few on ours that are still working well, crazy lighter, iguide, itarot, campfire, magic8ball...so trust yourself and those that have provided info as well in previous discussions.
try to find the post from dbmandrake re workarounds for 2.0.1 app install crashes dated 8/9/08...it made sense and got me rolling again.

    After upgrading IOS6 iam very much diappointed with this upgrade never expected this from apple and even safari is crashing in my ipod touch 4g.My ipod has started hanging after upgrading to ios6.All the apps are crashing please give a solution.

    Try the following:

    Reset iPod touch: 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Wait for iOS 6.0.1 update.
    The App store is a problem for many users.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4319809?tstart=0
    Ans some apps do not work with iOS 6 and will require the developer's update the apps.

  • HELP!! : Music and Video lists have disappeared from i-touch 2nd Gen

    Hi,
    I've got the new iPod touch 16GB.
    Today after synchronizing, all my Music and Video lists have disappeared from the menus. It also shows nothing in the iTunes browser, however the Storage bar on the summary screen is full with "Other", in an orange color but there's no media on it.
    Does anyone know what's going on here and why I can't access the files any more?
    Apps and other data were still there and all working fine.
    Any help would be really appreciated.....

    Too much (more than a few hundred MB) orange "Other" indicates an interrupted or corrupt sync.
    A restore will remedy this. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • Integration of third party application like Payware and Bank Wizard

    Hi,
    We have a scenario in which we are trying to integrate SAP XI 3.0 with 3rd Party application like Payware and Bank Wizard. We wish to know how should we go about doing it.
    Payware has Payment Interface card which is used to communicate with SAP R/3. I am not aware how it does that. I wish to know how it can be integrated with SAP XI 3.0.
    In case of Bank Wizard any kind of input is welcome.
    If anybody can provide some inputs on the same it will be highly appreciated.

    Hello
        not sure about Payware, but [Unified Software|http://www.unifiedsoftware.co.uk] has an alternative to Bankwizard that can be easily integrated with SAP via XI/PI or as a simple web service proxy.
    See their [SAP Packaged Service|http://www.unifiedsoftware.co.uk/products/sap/bankvalidator.html] information, or the official [SAP Packaged Service|http://www.sap.com/uk/services/consulting/portfolio/index.html] catalogue (look for UK Bank Validator Packaged service, page 32)
    Hope this helps

  • How many songs can you put in an Ipod touch 64GB if you only use it for music?

    I've heard the Ipod classic 160GB is discontinued. Could someone tell me how many songs you can put in the Ipod touch 64GB if you exclusively use it for music and don't put any photos, videos or anything?

    I just did some quick figuring. There are a lot of variables. My 64gb 5th gen touch has only 56.6gb capacity so says the unit. Settings>General>About.
    MP3 formatted songs vary greatly. I quickly perused my collection and found that the size varied from 3-7MB per song. Using the average of 4MB per song,(7MB is a rather large file for MP3) you will come up with 56.6 X 1024MB (1024 MB per 1GB) =57958MB/4 =14489 songs. This will probably never happen as there is cover artwork and different variables because of file size to consider. This gives you an Idea where to start.

  • Enabling iPod Touch to be a storage device - optimal 3rd party application

    The ONLY disappointment I have had with my beloved iPod Touch 32 is that it is the ONLY iPod not recognised by Windows or Mac OS as a storage device!!
    In fact I only chose the 32GB version for that expected benefit - my dealer was shocked when I discovered this stupid limitation and offered to give me my money back!
    I understand there are a couple of 3rd party applications that enable the Touch to be recognised as a storage device (to do daily file backups).
    Has anyone had any experience with any of these apps? Which is optimal (simple, reliable and unlikely to cause software conflicts that mess up the reliability of the Touch?)
    I am running firmware version 3.0 (happily).
    Thanks for your time,
    Simon.

    It is ridiculous that the iPod Touch cannot mount as a device enabling use of free space for data storage. 3rd party apps are now addressing this limitation.

  • I have all my music on an external media drive that has crashed. How can I get the music of my ipod touch back onto the comupter without loosing the music when it syncs?

    I have all my music on an external media drive that has crashed. How can I get the music of my ipod touch back onto the comupter without loosing the music when it syncs. in order to start rebuilding my music collection?

    You should be able to recover the media with the tips in  this post from forum regular Zevoneer but I'm not sure what the implications are for your application settings. You can probably transfer your purchases into a newly authorised library, backup the device, recover any other media using third party tools, then restore the device from the backup. That should switch the assocation of the device to the new library but it is not something I've personally tested.
    When you get it all working, make a backup!

  • Opening and closing 3rd party applications ??

    Does opening and closing 3rd party applications with the click of the home button actually close the application, or, does it continue running in the back ground ?
    I noticed most of the 3rd party application don't have a close/exit option, and wonder if opening and closing several applications with the home button can cause the many crashes I have read from fellow iPhone owners ?

    Clicking the Home button may close the application depending on the application itself. Some applications that use the network may close when going to the Home screen. To force quit any application, hold the Home button down for about 6 seconds until the Home screen comes up.

  • 3rd party application for album artwork?

    Are there any GREAT 3rd party applications for automatically bringing in album art to iTunes? I've got a bunch of old music that the automatic function within iTunes is not getting anything for. I even tried to clean up some of the info (i.e. make sure it had artist, song name, etc in proper fields), but nothing.
    If that or another app would correct song data also (probably asking a bit much) that would be awesome. I see where some of my very old stuff from back in the MP3 days will have Artist Name-Song Name as the title.
    Any help is appreciated. I dont have a week to do this manually!

    MP3Freaker would be your best bet. I've used others but MP3Freaker works flawlessly, and allows you to do three songs for free to show how it works, and how well. It's $23 but it saved me hours of painstaking work going through my 5500 songs

  • RFC( SAP R/3)  to  XI  to  3rd party Application

    Hi All,
    we have an 3rd party application to which we want to send some data from R/3. We are using XI as the middleware.The process has to be triggered from R/3 side. We are not using Idoc's here. We are planing to use the RFC through which the data transfer has to be done.
    We are creating a BAPI with import, export and tables parameters.Basically the RFC is in SAP R/3 System.We need to send the data in the table to XI.
    In this case how the RFC destination has to be created and how the RFC to be called in the R/3 system to export the Data to XI system.
    Answers are highly appreciated.
    Thanx and Regards,
    Durga.

    Hi,
    <i>>>>In this case how the RFC destination has to be created</i>
    Check this blog by Michal it shows you step by step
    /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/29/configuring-the-sender-rfc-adapter--step-by-step
    <i>>>>how the RFC to be called in the R/3 system to export the Data to XI system.</i>
    Hope you are aware of normal way of calling function
    CALL Function "FM Name"
    Export
    Tables
    in this case the RFC should be called as follows
    CALL Function "FM Name" destination <SM59 Destination>
    Export
    Tables
    The above is for Sync call and if you want to make a Async call that is you are not expecting any reponse from the target then
    CALL Function "FM Name" IN BACKGROUND TASK destination <SM59 Destination>
    Export
    Tables
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Reader 9.x does not retain preferences when called by a 3rd party application.

    I have an in-house application that utilizes .pdf and .xfdf files. We use Adobe 9.x when viewing these files and when I open them natively from Windows explorer they Display In Browser and all my Trust Manager preferences are intact. If I use the 3rd party application to open the files they Display In Browser but none of my TrustManager settings are present and I am forced to trust the document each time I reopen Adobe. If I leave Adobe Reader open for the duration of the session that I am using my 3rd party application though the Trust Settings for the document I loaded are present but as soon as I close Adobe they are gone until I Trust the document when opening it again. Any insight as to why this might be and how I could rectify the issue would be appreciated.

    We are using 9.1.1.
    We notice that this option is no loger available in this version.  The below option will keep the form data available even if you exist out from the sessions.
    Keep Forms Data Temporarily Available On Disk

    another web page and then click Back to return to the PDF form.

  • Any links i open from 3rd party applications do not open in firefox.

    To be more precise, when i click a link, Firefox does open however it does not visit the URL. It simply opens a new session. I have started Firefox in safe mode and the problem occurs, i have reset firefox to default preferences and the problem still persists. I can see no problems in the setting of Firefox itself and have already tried all the fixes available.
    I am using Firefox 29.0.1 on Fedora 20 64x

    As i stated, when i click links from 3rd party applications, such as skype; a youtube link or something similar. Firefox opens a new session however it does not visit the clicked url
