Ipod touch video won't work

Anyone having issues with the ipod touch 2nd gen when trying launching video? Mine just blacks out for a minute or so and comes right back to home screen.

i got mine at Target, it was $99. you can also get it at walmart. best buy didn't have it, but they had other, cheaper versions that included a dock with remote (around $60) but i wanted the apple brand so i spent the extra $40 to continue to be an apple snob. i think you can get it on amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MA242LL-C-iPod-Connection/dp/B000MRH5IQ/ref=sr12/103-9084531-7502227?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1192501637&sr=1-2

  • IPod touch 3G won't work after falling in water? Help!

    Ok it's been 3 months since my iPod touch fell in the...toilet. I immediately put it in rice after pushing all the buttons. It was only in the water for a second. When I picked it up the screen was dim, flickering, then when black. I wiped it off and put it in rice. I left it in rice for about four days. I finally plugged it up to the charger and after 20 minutes it came on. It told me I needed to plug it up to iTunes so I did. I restored it and when it was restored I tried to slide the bar at the bottom of the screen but it would never register. So I let it die and when I charged it again it wanted me to restore it AGAIN! I've restored it about five times!! Each time the touch screen won't work and it doesn't hold a charge very well. Also every time it does it wants me to restore it. What's wrong with it and how can I fix it? Oh and the home button doesn't work.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • New iPod touch 4 won't work or restore after update

    I got an iPod touch 4 in January. (I am using an H-P desktop, 3.0Ghz, 2.5 GB RAM, 250 GB HD, mostly empty, with Win XP home.) The first time there was an iOS software update available, it didn't work after the update and would not restore. After many tries, I finally got it working by restoring it on our macbook. At the time I figured it was just a fluke that it didn't work.
    Now, with the latest iOS update, the same thing is happening. I have tried all the troubleshooting things on the dialog box that is linked to the iTunes box that comes up (several times). I also tried deleting the ipsw files that was suggested in a similar problem found in this forum. Nothing works! Unfortunately, the one year old macbook is now in the shop with problems so that route is nil. (Besides, it is supposed to work with this system!)
    I really miss having my iPod! Anyone have any other suggestions?

  • Ipod Touch STILL won't work with Windows 64-bit

    Argh!
    So, I've read the entries about the new Itunes 7.6, and how it should work with my Ipod Touch.
    I uninstalled all my previous Itunes, and Quicktime software. I then installed the new Itunes64.exe. Everything worked fine.
    But then, I connected by Itouch and it says "This Ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the Itunes installer to remove Itunes, the install the 64-bit version of Itunes."
    I'm confused what the problem is. I just DID that!?! What do I need to do differently? Anyone have an idea?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    I’ve got the new version of Itunes (7.6.1) but I still get the error where it tells me to download and install a 64-bit version of Itunes. This is just ridiculous!!! I bought my IPOD touch before Christmas and i still haven’t been able to use it!
    I've uninstalled and installed itunes and all that rubbish about 5-6 times now, i've deleted everything to do with Apple from my machine and also nearly killed my machine because i messed around with the registry (that's my fault :P)
    NOTE: I used IE 64-bit version to download the installer.
    Anyone have a solution to the problem?

  • Ipod touch 5 won't work after installing IOS 8.2

    I had gotten my Ipod in February from my boyfriend (he bought it brand new from Amazon). Recently, I had tried to install IOS 8.0.2 (the newest one) and I had accidentally shut it down, thinking it would stop the update. Boyfriend told me nothing about not updating it and just waiting. But now it refuses to turn on. there are times when it has the apple logo and it stays for a good 15 seconds but sometimes it will fade away completely. We have tried everything. The Itunes will do the restore thing but then at the end, it will say it can't finish. Help!

    what OS are you running on your Touch ? many apps require iOS 2.x or later ...

  • IPod Touch videos won't show then crash and apps respond slow

    Here's the deal, I bought his iPod a couple months ago, 3rd generation 64GB and I could put videos on it fine and they would come up and I could play them, now since I updated it with 4.2 or 4.1 software from iTunes everything's running slower. My iPod takes longer to respond when I open an app or it just crashes and brings me back home. My video (standard) app won't even show any of my videos, it's just a white screen and then crashes. What happened and how do I fix it?

    I'm also having the same problem with the Videos app - interestingly enough, also with a 64GB 3rd Gen. Touch running 4.2.1 (build 8C148). Try to open Video app, it goes to white screen for a bit, then quits.
    Checked out another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12678404&#12678404) and experienced the same behaviors as well: temporarily works if you change languages; restoring as a new iPod does NOT fix issue; music videos seem to play fine (though it seems to repeat a video, rather than move on to the next); and all that.
    The more I read about it, the more this seems to be a glitch in iOS. Moreover, it seems to be related to music videos somehow. Seems that the Music Videos and regular moves aren't playing nice.
    While music videos do play in the Music app, that's not particularly convenient for me. Going off one of the posts in the above-mentioned thread, I'm going to tray a temporary fix of relabeling my "Music Videos" to "Movies". Seemed things went wrong when Music Videos entered the picture. While a work-around, for me it's a little more usable than the inverse.
    Will report back whether or not this temporary fix works until Apple can release an update addressing this problem.

  • IPod touch speakers won't work

    The volume slide bar shows up and the buttons on the side of the ipod work, only with headphones though. When headphones are not in, and i play a video on youtube for example, there is no volume bar and the side buttons don't work. there is no sound that comes out. when i go into settings, i can adjust the volume, but the ipod still won't make noise. I also don't hear a noise when I lock and unlock the screen. I believe it is a problem with the OS, but I'm not sure.

    so has anyone solved this problem? It is happening to me too. No sound on the speakers even though the volume is at full blast. The sound comes out of the earphone though

  • Ipod Touch Apps Won't work now.

    So I re formatted my computer and reinstalled Itunes. I wanted to ad some music to my Ipod so I had to re sync ALL my music since it had no recolation of my apps.
    Now my applications work, they'll boot up and then shut down. It did this before and I had to re download them all.
    I know I can go back and download all the apps one by one but just curious if there is a faster way to get all the apps I paid for back without having to go one by one?
    thank you

    hang on!
    crashing apps is fairly common, two usual solutions:
    1. do a reset (hold home and power button at the same time until the silver apple comes up)
    2. download another app

  • IPod Touch 2g won't work at all

    Hey guys,
    I was recently on holiday and on the second day, my iPod went black. I couldn't switch it on and any attempts to charge it, didn't work. I wasn't too bothered because I only bought a cheap car adapter to charge it with, so I thought maybe that was the issue.
    However, since returning, I still cannot get anything to work. I have tried charging it on my PC using the original cable. I've used a new cable I bought and tried a mains adapter, yet nothing has worked. The iPod isn't working at all.
    I've been holding down the home and power button for 10+ seconds, to no avail. No matter how many times I've tried to switch it on, I get absolutely no response.
    Before this more permanent problem, I did have an issue with the power button itself, where it was sticking. It had done this in the past though, but on this day, it was sticking more than usual, randomly asking me if I wanted to turn the iPod off completely.
    Does anyone have any advice?
    Thanks,
    Jack

    Yeah, I've looked around the internet and this doesn't seem uncommon. Surely there is some advice?
    It's incredibly frustrating, to say the least.
