Ipod Touch is hot to touch and shutting off

I'm trying to download a season of vids. While waiting for the remaining downloads, I'm watching the first show, and the pod shuts off and returns to menu. Also, I noticed that it is slow in responding in turning on with the button, and responding to my touch to the sliding button. As for temperature, the pod is warmest at each ends of the pod.
It is fully charged, but not charging. Am I just working it too hard, or could there be some major malfunction going on?
Thanks people!

It is normal for the iPod to get warm.  I would try the following standard fixes in order:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
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.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes on your computer
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • 8GB iPod touch Atutomatically Shuts off?

    Does the 8GB iPod touch turn itself off after not being used for a long period of time? Just bought one for my mother and it seems to shut off over night when left attached to the PC, never had this happen with any other iPod i've owned including my iPhone.

    If your computer is turned off or in sleep mode your battery may drain when your ipod is connected.

  • Ipod touch randomly shuts off

    when i am listening to my ipod touch and the screen is off then when i hit the home button the ipod just shuts off. also when it is in my pocket on but in sleep mode it will shut off for no reason. it just started doing this three days ago. it still plays music, movies and works but having it just shut off is really anoying what can i do to fix it?

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • My 2nd generation iPod touch keeps shutting off and I would need to restart all the time.  Can apple still do anything about it even though it's a very old iPod touch?

    Hi,
    I've had my iPod touch for a really long time and it recently starts to shut off or freezes all the time.  There is always batteries in it and I am getting annoyed by restarting it all the time.  Is there any way to fix this and will apple do anything about it because it is a old generation iPod touch.  Thanks!

    Have you tried restoring to Factory Default (setup as new).

  • 2nd Gen iPod Touch intermittent shut off and/or screen shots, blinking +

    Hi - concerned, not very technical mom here, trying to help out my son. His iPod touch shuts off, goes to the front screen, takes screen shots, sometimes the touch works and sometimes it doesn't, it blinks, I am not sure what to do. Any and all very specific (remember not real techy mom here) suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.

    I've had this same problem. It ended up being a problem in the hardware. Your going to need to take it to a Apple Genius Bar. They will help you understand the problem better.

  • My ipod touch just shut off when i was listening to some music. Now it wont turn back on, do you know why? Please thanks...

    - 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 another cable              
    - 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.

    My iPod touch 3Gen keeps on turning off some times. Like one second it will work then just shut off. And it is fully charged. What can I do to fix this. I have 4.3.1

    Sounds hardware-related, but try #2 and 3 to eliminate a software problem.

  • Loaded up Firefox home on my ipod touch and whenever I go to open a book mark or a web page it crashes and shuts down.

    I have loaded the firefox home on my ipod touch and sync'd it. Everything came over in the sync but when I open something, and then start scrolling down the page, it just shuts the program down.

    You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature turned on.
    Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:
