Ipod Touch Music App blows past options screen to playlist - No control

I just purchased a Touch 4.1 and everything is great except the Music app.. When I turn it on it flashes past the control screen with the options and goes directly to the graphical listing of music. I can only play 1 piece at a time. Regardless of how fast I try and intercept the control screen, as it flashes by ... No luck! Is there a way to uninstall and reinstall just the Music App?
Thanks!

No, you can't do anything with the native music app. Have your reset your 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.

4th Gen iPod Touch music app is going haywire.

Recently my 4th Gen iPod Touch (version 6.1.6 recently updated) refused to sync any music. I have had it synced to my computer for more than a year and have been adding new music with the 'Autofill' option. However, last night it refused to sync music. The songs are visible on my iPod but greyed out. This has happened before. Usually it will sync eventually but this time is different. Around the same time my iPod was claiming to be overcapacity. I looked up solutions but none seemed to be particularly helpful. I did delete some music and videos off my iPod to no avail.
Eventually the problem seemed to fix itself with the overcapacity claim disappearing however the data then began to inflate and adjust itself out of nowhere. It would claim my music was taking up 30gig before saying 4gig. Everything seemed to be going haywire with the data reading. When I checked the music app the artists tab claimed I had no music. I selected a song and discovered that it wouldn't play but rather start shuffling in the playlist. I can't do anything to stop this. I have turned the iPod off and on and soft reset it (I think, I held the Power and Home button for several seconds) but the actions have done nothing. it is incredibly confusing as the iPod is only 2 years old and I would like to avoid buying a new one. I'm not sure how helpful a restore or reset would be but I will try it if there is no other option. I've searched the net for an hour trying to find out if anyone has encountered the same problem. Everything else works fine except for Notes which stopped opening months ago. Incredibly confused and would appreciate any help or advice.

HT1349 Ipod touch won't move past password screen

my ipod touch 4g keeps asking for hotmail password. I enter it and it is not taking it and won't move past this screen. Any idea how to get this off?

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Try to set it up as new device without using the latest backup, explained here:
How to back up your data and set up as a new device
Has the device been jailbroken by the former owner? If yes, your problems could be a result of that:
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

- You can redownload yur apps at no additional cost. See:
How to redownload purchased apps from the App Store
- You only get one download of music and it is up to you to make a backup. However, sometimes if you explain what happens the iTunes store may allow a redownload of music. You can contact them by starting here and selecting the appropriate topic:

My ipod touch has frozen with a white screen. None of the buttons will work to turn it off or take any action. Holding down buttons for 10 seconds plus does not work.Help

My ipod touch has frozen with a white screen. The on/ff and sleep buttons will not work whether pressed for a moment or held for more than 10 seconds as per help pages. When connected to computer it is not recognised and no indication in "devices".It has been working perfectly from Christmas until now. Was watching a TV prog via BBC iplayer when the image and sound froze for about 5 seconds then just white screen. Help

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo

My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo (unless the battery is dead, Then it tell me to charge it). Once it gave me the connect to itunes screen. I clicked restore in itunes but the ipod went back to the apple logo before the update download finished. I tried calling apple but my over the phone technical support just expired. PLEASE HELP!

This can be a corrupted software/firmware on your iPod touch. If the recovery mode you did was not forced, then try to force it into recovery mode. This is how:
1. Force it to shut down (note: this sort of shut down should not be preformed unless you are in a situation like this because it is a hardware shutdown and will not attempt to unload software, save unsaved files, safely stop system processes, etc.) to do this, hold down the power/sleep button and home button for about 7 or 10 secs. Also I might be incorrect but I heard that you can just hold down the sleep and home button until the screen goes blank and then immediately let go.
2. Have iTunes running. Hold down the home button and plug the USB cable that came with your iPod into it. Keep on holding on the home button until a picture of a USB cable going into the iTunes logo appears. You are now in a forced recovery mode. (In case your not so tech-savvy forced recovery is the same as a normal recovery mode that an iPod might do if it knows an update or restore failed.)
3. iTunes should have shown a pop-up message about it found a iPod in recovery mode. Click OK, click your iPod from the sidebar and click restore. The iPod will show the apple logo for a while and iTunes will say "preparing iPod for restore" and then "waiting for iPod" this was the longest part of updates for me.
4. iPod will reboot when restore is completed. When I update my iPod it one time showed the apple logo for one whole sync until it showed the slide to unlock screen, so do not worry. P.S if that does not work do a DFU mode restore ( I've been told DFU mode stands for device firmware update mode) I'm running out of room, so google it. Hope this helped ;)

Transfer ipod touch's app. softwares from Window OS to Mac OS

I just got my new iMac recently, please advise me how to transfer my iPod touch's app. softwares, music, video and other files from my previous Windows OS to Mac OS.
Thanks in advance

Thanks Duddo.
Yeah, i found the file 'iPod touch app pack 4a93.ipa' in mobile application directory, which directory in Mac should i copy to? Is it \user\<name>\music\iTunes ?
Hi,
I think that is the old "January update", I'm not so sure it is necessary to transfer that one but it would go here -
~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Applications
Look here for the latest 2.0 etc. updates -
C:\Documents and Settings\"name"\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
Even then I'm not sure even these are required but best back them up to be safe.
I'm not sure where the go in Mac OS X though.
I'm sure someone will let us know soon.

Ipod touch music problem

i went to go add this one song onto both of my ipods, one being the ipod touch 5.0.1 i guess, and the third gen ipod nano. When i added the song to both of them my nano has all the songs including the new one into it while my ipod touch music has been erased all for one song. How do i get back the songs from my itouch, can i restore it? Now when it tells me when i click on the music library on the itouch from itunes it shows me all the music i once had but when i go on my itouch it only has 1 song.
further information, i have my nano then i got my itouch.

go to the itunes app and got to purchesed
in purchesed go to music and this is a hard task but click on the cloud on the songs you want and they will download

IPod Touch / iPhone app "Remote"

Does anyone else attempt to use this to remote control your AppleTV ?
I was full of expectation when I went through the hassles of setting up an iTunes account on my junk email address (and without having to submit my credit card details - sorry, call me luddite, but I like to buy my music albums and movies and tv series on optical media, usually for less than iTunes is charging).
Then I find that the iPod Touch remote will only show iTunes purchased movies and tv shows, and not the "shared", personal movies / tv shows. Anyone with children of their own will understand, I have hundreds of home movie clips I want available.
I guess the "networking" between the iMovie and iDVD departments and the AppleTV department is broken, and has been since Take 2 was planned.

This must be where I'm going wrong.
I have nothing synced - all turned off when I setup after the "update" to Take 2. I previously had all my TV shows (including all my home movies) sync'd but the wireless speed is so fast and reliable I've gone back to stream everything.
I have only the one library ("Mac Pro Library") connected at the Apple TV. To play anything not purchased from iTunes, I have to select "Shared Movies" (or Shared TV Shows, etc), the "My Movies" shows nothing, presumably because I don't sync anything.
Are you saying that I could change some setting to get the whole streamed library content through the "My Movies" (or My TV Shows, etc) menu, and therefore possibly through the iPod Touch "Remote" app ?
I'm also a little miffed that the "Shared Movies" are not sorted by the "Sort Name" in iTunes in Take 2 v2.1. Apple TV v1.0 didn't sort by sort name either, but v1.1 did.
I factory restored to v1.0. Do I miss Take 2 ? LOL. I might use it if there was one good thing about it. Or it offered me some flexible access to my own content. Is there anything WOW I'm missing ?

My ipod touch would not go past the apple logo, it would just shut off. i held the power and home keys and connected to itunes

my ipod touch would not go past the apple logo, it would just shut off. i held the power and home keys and connected to itunes but now its on the connect to itunes picture and shuts off on its own. even if i try and shut it off myself it won't. it only stays on for about 3-5 minutes:( please help!!!

When it shows the Connect to iTunes screen and you connect it to iTunes, have you tried restoring it?
This should solve your problem because the most common cause of your issue is a software glitch that is preventing your iPod from completing it's boot sequence. Restoring it will replace the software on the iPod with a fresh set so it can be used again.

The options are listed at the bottom of this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212. The best option is the first (listed under "If you have previously synced with iTunes"): back it up and restore it on the last computer it was synced with after setting the passcode.
