IPod Touch wont play songs

OK,I know normally this wouldn't be an issue as I could just remove the songs but my computer was recently wiped of all memory so in order to keep all my current music on my iPod I've been manually syncing it. I added some songs a few days ago and they do not play at all and every time I try to play them the iPod just freezes for about a 45 seconds to a minute. Is there anyway that I could just remove the problem songs without removing everything, seeing as I cant sync my iPod to iTunes?
Thanks a million.

Seriously? Nobody knows anything about this? It's a really frustrating problem Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

my ipod touch has the same problem. I restored it three times, but that can't help.

Why does my ipod touch stop playing songs when i click to play, it plays for a few seconds sometimes longer and then goes onto the next song. Help!

Please help,my ipod touch stops playing songs sometimes a few seconds in and then other times halfway. It cant be the song because different songs do it each time. Ive tried to restore it and it makes no difference :(
Please help as this problem gets very annoying. Thanks!

Did you restore to factory defaults/new iPod and sync stuff to your iPod? If you restore from backup there may be some corruption that is now in the backup.

IPod Touch wont play music or connet to iTunes!

My ipod touch wont play music through the headphones or docking station, it only plays music through the actual iPod and it isnt found when i connect to itunes, help!

HT1665 I have recently purchased a sony docking station and my ipod touch wont play through speakers. does anyone know why

I cant get my ipod touch to play through a docking station I have recently purchased. A second ipod touch works fine. Can anyone tell me why it wont play through speakers?
thanks

What model iPod and iOS works and which does not?
Sometimes a 4G iPod will not fully sead in the dock because its case configuration is different that previous models.
Also, sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility.
Have you checked the dock manufactuer's support stie for compatibility?
Sometimes this works:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Ipod touch wont play music

Ipod touch was playing music and now I try to select a song to play and it does not play but blinks and takes me back to the playlist. It happens to every song I select. I have already tried to power it off and power back on it does not work still

Perhaps [iPod does not play content purchased from the iTunes Store|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1510] or [Troubleshooting songs that skip on iPod|http://support.apple.com/kb/TA26488?viewlocale=en_US] will help.
Good luck!

My ipod touch wont play through my docking station

hiya i have an ipod touch. aout a week ago it stopped working with my docking station. it wont play through the docking station speakers. ive tried two other ipods on the station and they work fine so its clearly a problem with my ipod. the ipod registers that its plugged into a charging source and starts playing music when its plugged in but through its own speakers rather then the docking station. i've tried doing a full factory reset and that didnt work. does anybody have any suggestions?

- Inspect the dock connector for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

Ipod Touch Not Playing Songs

So I just recently purchased a new ipod touch everything worked fine until today when i tried to play some songs and they would not play. It showed the song playing but it wouldnt start and always was on paused even when I clicked play.. Anyone know whats going on?

I ran into the same issue with my new 32gb touch. Everything played fine on my Nano, but when I sync'd my touch, only half the songs played. I have both ipods sync'd with my new computer. When I dusted off my old computer (the one that I actually bought the songs with) and re-sync'd the touch with it, everything worked... So, the only thing I can think of is when I dragged the files to an external hard drive, then dragged them to my new computer, I lost some important data that the touch needed, probably a protection feature. I have everything backed up from the old computer on cd's the long and tedious iTunes way, and will dump my library on the new computer and re-load through the iTunes back-up process, that should fix it.(My non-playing songs show "Protected ACC" on the new computer and "Purchased ACC" on the old computer)

HELP ME- ipod mini wont play songs!

i have rescently moved houses and had to load my ipod mini on to a new computer and new i tunes list. I re loaded all my music on to the new list and transfered my ipod to factory settings to wipe all my old music. But when i went transfer all of my music to my ipod everything went bad!
my ipod says it has the songs on it but when i go to play them it plays none of them and just skips them all! Also when my ipod is connected to itunes i cant play the songs that are said to be in my ipod, but all the songs in my library play perfectly! (which are the same as the ones in my ipod)
please help me im going crazy!!!

Hello Anna,
Have you any tracks purchased from the iTunes Music Store? Did you authorise the new computer: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation you could also have a look here: Troubleshooting songs that skip on iPod
One last thing, when your iPod is connected to iTunes and you try to play it through the computer do you get Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen? This would mean that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists". . If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and Playlists" in the iPod preferences. Managing Your Songs Manually</

Ipod touch wont play through speakers anymore

My Ipod touch played and charged fine on my Philips docking station until this week - now they won'tdo either but other ipods work fine so it's not the speakers. Any ideas?

- Make sure the iPod is fully seated in the dock. If you have a 4G those are harder to seat.
- Look at the dock connector for abnormalities. Compare with the working iPods.
- Yu can try the folwing to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
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 defaults/new iPod.

IPod touch wont play apps

Hey I just put some apps onto my iPod touch from the app store on my touch, and when I try to play them it loads up what looks like the first page of the app, then just jumps back to my home page. What do I do?

- typoHi,
1. Try a Reset, hold both buttons down for about ten seconds, ignore the "Slide to turn off" and only let go when the Apple logo pops up in the middle of the screen. Wait a minute or two and your Touch will restart.
Try the App.
2. Remove the App by unchecking, resynch. Then reinstall.
Try App.
3. As 2 but redownload the App from Appstore.
Try App again.
Come back if no go.

Ipod touch wont play music and youtube

i have a second generation ipod touch. I cant watch youtube videos, movies, and play music. It is updated and i restored it. I redownloaded all my data. After that it still didnt work. Also it shutdowns completely by it selves. It freezes up sometimes. Could it be a virus or could be since i dropped it a few times. All the apps, mail, safari, and everything else works fine.
Please help:(
Thank you

If the problem persists after a restore to factory defaults/new iPod then it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Try this Resetting iPod if it appears frozen or doesn't respond
If that doesn't work then there is this Restoring iPod to factory settings
Failing that you may want to work your way through the iTunes 101: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod101/

Ipod touch wont shuffle songs

My ipod won't shuffle it keeps playing same song when I hit shuffle

While playing any song on your iPod, tap the artwork to bring up the scrubber bar and additional controls. On the left hand side is a option for repeat. You want to make sure this icon is white (meaning it is set to Off). If it isn't tap it either one or two times to change its current setting.
On the left hand side is the shuffle option.
