Ipod touch 4 keeps freezing/doesn't show wi-fi/doesn't play music and videos

I was just gonna play on my ipod touch 4g,and then when i tap on the app,it crashes the game and freezes.It was perfectly fine yesterday though.And when i restart the syetem and try to do something it freezes again,or if i tap the home button it freezes.It also doesn't show the wi-fi bar and i have wi-fi on and have a router.it also doesn't play music or videos and the sound works.Do you think i should get something new?

Thanks for responding. Since I upgraded ITUNES to IOS 6, my IPOD Touch no longer works at all. I had numerous apps, music and videos on this touch. It made me restore to factory reset and it still does not work!!! Nothing I do will work on this touch now. I have so much data on this, I don't want to loose or have to restore!
Can you help me?
Thanks

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

HT1386 I have a new computer and when I tried to sync my iPod Touch with the new iTunes, it has lost all of my music and videos from my iPod/old iTunes library: including all but 4 songs of my bought songs, videos and audeobooks!

I have recently updated my computer since my old one broke and therefore had to download a new iTunes. When I came to add my iPod to this new iTunes, I was given no option to transfer the contents of my iPod library to this new iTunes and was forced to try 'sync'; when my old computer was repaired once we lost all of our data so I had to download a new iTunes then,all of my iPod downloads were transferred and I could easily reburn my CDs so I didn't think the wiping of my iPod would be a problem. When I clicked 'sync' it warned me that it would replace the contents of my iPod with the new iTunes library, as I said I didn't think this would be a problembut then it asked if it should transfer my recent iTunes downloads so I said 'yes'. The sync was completed but now I only have 4 downloaded songs and 5 albums which I burned to my new iTunes! I have lost all the music I bought, all the videos I bought and all the audiobooks I bought! (Luckily I still have my apps.) I tried to restore backup but realised that only covers calendars, contacts E.T.C and I checked my iTunes account and that shows all my downloads but I can't see a way to restore them or anything like that!
Please help! I am in despair as you can imagine how much moneys worth I have lost and am losing faith in Apple

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

I just received a brand new iPod touch as a gift. But when I try to play music on it the speaker is extremely slow. When I plug in headphones I hear nothing. Tried multiple headphones. Tried a restore.

Try here:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
You said you restored the iPod. Was the restore successful, that is, it went though all the steps without errors?
Try a restore to factory settings/new iPod if yuhave not doe so so far.
Are you using the headphones that came with the iPod? Are you inserting the plug fully
Have you tried another set of headphones in the iPod?
The speaker is not that loud.

Plug your iPod into your computer and resync your songs back on.

8GB ipod touch keeps freezing up and won't run apps correctly

I have an 8GB ipod touch that is almost a year old and it keeps freezing up. Some apps that use the motion side to side to move objects, doodlejump for example, won't work. I have reloaded apps and restored the ipod and it is still having a problem. What would be the issue and can it be fixed?

If the restore you did was from backup. restore to factory defaults/new iPod since you may have corruption that is now in your backup. If you then still have problems I wold make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If they determine it is a hardware problem and it is within warranty they should give you a replacment iPod.

My ipod touch keeps freezing and doesnt want to turn on anymore.

i have a 32gb 4th generation ipod touch, it stopped working properly like 2 weeks ago. It stopped functioning right when the home button didnt go as smooth. I had to press it really hard to go from one app to the home screen. if i pressed it twice to change music, it would turn negative color. i turned that off but the button kept acting the same. it is fustrating. ive tried turning it off then back on but it doesnt change and today while in an app it froze completely. i held the power and home button to reset it, although it was hard, it turned off. while trying to turn it back on, it froze on the black screen with the apple in the middle. is there anyway i can fix it or what can i do?
i need help its very fustrating and it keeps turning on and off by itself on the black screen with the apple for over 10 minutes.
ive only had it for 5 months. please help!

This also happened to me when I did the jailbreak and restored, he caught the apple in the middle of the screen and spent four monthswithout knowing what to do, I called support and found it was onlyTIGHTEN THE BUTTON UP, HOLD AND PRESS THE BUTTONAND HOME HOLD BOTH, then the image will appear to connectthe pc, when you will connect to iTunes and a message that youriPod disendo is in recovery mode, then just restore it and hope itreturns to normal. Hope this helps everyone.

My iPod Touch keeps freezing! WHY?!

I have the 8GB, 4th Generation iPod Touch with software version 4.2.1. It's about two years old and has recently begun to freeze (no colored pages, just frozen on whatever screen it was on when it froze). It happens when I am playing and exploring my music the most and has even done it for no reason. The only way to pass it is to do a force quit by holding down the power and home buttons.
I have been to the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store and he reset my iPod back to it's factory settings and I left with a blank iPod and the hope that the problem had been solved. Alas, it had not. I got home, synced it to my library and behold, here we are again.
I don't play games or use apps that (literally, the only app I have is Facebook). I have a huge iTunes library, but I haven't filled my iPod to the max, so there's lots of storage space. So it can't be an app or storage issue. I do have it connected to my personal home wireless internet, but that has never ever given me problems, so I don't think that's an issue either.
I have gone through my entire iTunes library and found no corrupt files and everything is up to date (both iTunes and iPod software). I have even re-downloaded iTunes. I understand that I now have an outdated iPod since the 5th Generation is out and because of that, 4.2.1 is as far as 4th Generation users will get. Apple has stopped releasing updates for the 4th Generation iPods, so updates will now bypass 4th Generation users. Fine. I've had version 4.2.1 for well over a month now and it only recently began freezing and giving me issues.
All I want to do is browse and listen to my music without it freezing as that is all I use my iPod for.
I plan on revisiting the Genius Bar for another appointment in the very near future.
I am willing to try anything (as long as it won't harm my iPod). I do however refuse to buy a replacement since the 5th Generation is out and 4th Generation updates have been abandoned. So if it comes down to buying another one, it's going to be the newest one.
Is there anything else I can do?
HELP!
-Brandon

Correction: I have a 2nd Generation iPod Touch, not a 4th Gen. My mistake.
I have deleted a ton of stuff already. The only stuff left is music, that's pretty much it.
As far as restoring it goes, I have done that. The problem still seems to remain.
Any more ideas or suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated.
Thanks

Ipod touch keeps freezing in recovery mode

Every time I try to upgrade my ipod touch to 3.1.3, it crashes and goes into recovery mode and doesn't work. itunes doesn't recognize the device so I have to use someone else's PC and itunes account to restore it to its original settings. Anyone got any suggestions.

My replacement ipod touch keeps freezing

I just got a new replacement ipod touch 2 weeks ago . It freezes every few sec but weird thing is that i think it is just the keyboard because it responds to the home button. This happens with like every app that needs a keyboard. Another weird thing is that this problem goes away and then comes back. And i lose wifi when this happens too. And it wouldnt let me put my ipod to shut down. Until i reset but the problem happened again. Right now it is gone cause i exited out of the app and restarted but it happens again later. This happens on safari too! If this replacement is another defect what do i do? :( I found out this problem when it wouldnt let me message my friends on facebook and i thought it was just the app but it started happening on safari too!

There are some major problems with this ipod. I know everyone says this, but restoring from a backup might help.
You could also make an appointment with a Genious at an apple store, if you live near one. They might be able to fix this better than someone on the forums. These appointments are free!!

Verify that he songs play OK in iTunes on your computer (for music problem only)
