Ipod video pausing and making strange sounds

I have a 30Gb Ipod classic. When I get to a certain point in a video, the video will stop playing and start immiting a sharp, high-pitched sound, almost like brakes make when they're grinding. If i skip ast that point, I have no problems.
Does anyone know what I should do?

Hi,
This has been a HUGE issue as of late with people and such as myself. The only thing that worked for me so far is to bring it to an apple store to the mac genius and they have to restart and reinstall the fireware in your ipod. So i strong reccomend you doing this so you dont get so frustrated like i did.

  • When songs are playing in itunes the sound keeps pausing and making little clicking noises. Any ideas?

    When songs are playing in itunes the sound keeps pausing for brief moments and making little clicking noises. Any ideas how to fix this?

    Error -36 is an I/O error, which could indicate a damaged Catalog file, corrupted bitmap or (even worse) a dying HD.
    I would recommend to run Disk Utility and perform a 'Verify disk'.
    If lots of errors are found, try to save as much files as possible to another disk.
    Then perform a 'Repair disk'. Repairing a catalog file or bitmap might cause loss of files, that's why I recommend to verify first and save the files, before repairing.

    First of all, you are a little lost here as this is the forum for older iPods. The iPod video forum is here.
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=808
    However, I can tell you that is a widespread issue with (mainly) 60GB iPods that have software version 1.1 installed, and have been using Videora software to convert videos for use on the iPod, although it isn't exclusively related to Videora.
    The solution (for now at least) is to revert to the previous software version, which is 1.0.
    You'll find more info if you visit the iPod video forum.

  • Macbook Pro is crashing and making alarm sound

    Dear all,
    lately my Macbook Pro is crashing on a regular basis (once a week) and making this crazy alarm sound. I posted a video of at at youtube. Has anybody an idea what is going on? My first idea was heat, but the CPU is not getting hot at all.

    i am not sure but beside the alarm sound issue your video is also not working correctly i think its logic board issue because of the alarm sound and graphics issue, my recommendation is to call apple authorized service center for checking it i think your first one year warranty expired do you have apple care for your laptop?
    good luck
    keep us posted

  • Video pauses and audio continues. HELP!!!

    When playing videos in iTunes the video pauses every now and then but the audio continues, after about 10 seconds the audio will appear on fast-forward as if trying to catch up to the audio. Has only recently started happening. What can i do? PLEASE HELP!V

    I am having the same issue I posted this elsewhere
    I have a Mid 2010 Mac Mini Server (full specs below) and very recently it has developed a strange problem.  I'll be watching something on iTunes and the video will stop but the audio continues.  If I move the mouse and click on the screen the video suddenly plays very fast untill it catches up with the audio and then for a while it will play normally.  I can go through this process 3-4 times an hour before I give up and stream to my iPad instead.
    in the beginning it only happened when I was using the HDMI cable but recently it happens when the mini VGA adaptor is plugged in too.
    its beginning to be very frustrating so any help would be truly appreciated.
    thanks

  • IPhone making strange sound when receive all types of message.

    I've bought my iPhone 4S last week and it started making a really strange sound when receiving all sorts of messages (e-mail, whatsapp, sms). The sound is the sound I selected for each one but it loops 4 or 5 times everytime! What can it be?

    If no change after powering your iPhone off and on, try an iPhone reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so. An iPhone reset does not affect any data or settings.

  • Video froze and loud screeching sound

    Last nite I was watching a video using iTunes and about halfway through it the video froze and a very loud, annoying screeching sound came through the speakers. I tried to quit iTunes but the entire system was frozen. Only way to stop that screeching noise was to hold down the power key on my MBP and shut it down. After a few moments I rebooted and the MBP seems to be running fine now.
    I haven't added any ram or anything else to my MBP in a couple years. Mac Hardware Test says no problems.
    Anyone else ever experience this?

    Sounds like you should contact Apple and get the drive replaced. In the mean time, backup DAILY!

  • Connect to car, IPOD Classic pauses and will not play

    Hello to all,
    First of all I am not very good at computer stuff. I used my IPOD Classic for about three months with a car kit and all was fine. All of a sudden it stopped playing. I figured out that the IPOD pauses when it is connected to the wire from the car. I have tried connecting it with the car off, on, radio off, on all with the same result, as soon as the IPOD detects the wire it pauses. My radio will only play the IPOD not control it. Any ideas?? This is driving me mad. I don't understand why it worked for months and then suddenly stopped. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I'm having the same problem. I updated my ipod in itunes and now my car's usb deck will not recognize the ipod. It had been working for years without a problem. I emailed kenwood and they said apple pushed out an update that is causing compatibility issues with car decks. They suggested a "soft reset" which did nothing. Kenwood told me to contact Apple and Apple wants me to pay for support. Guess I'll surf around this forum till I find a way to revert back to an older version of the ipod software.
    Here's the thread from kenwood:
    Dear Mr. Lapteff,
    Thank you for contacting Kenwood USA Corporation. We value you as a Kenwood customer and appreciate the opportunity to be of assistance.
    I understand you are having an issue with playing back your Ipod. If you recently updated your Ipod to the newer iOS4 software version we recommend attempting to soft reset the Ipod and attempt reconnecting to your head unit. The available updates from Apple have caused some issues with connectivity. For information on resetting your Ipod we recommend visiting www.apple.com.
    Please feel free to contact us again with any additional questions.

  • Video pauses and audio continues for a few seconds

    I searched and was unable to find an answer. When I play a video in any type of player from youtube to VLC, the video starts and then the video pauses, audio continues for about 2 seconds, and then the video picks up where the audio is. It plays normally after the beginning. Any idea what this could be?

    Although I don't have my mouse jumping around, I can see that both YouTube and AVI videos that I play are stuttering during playback. And it's annoying.

  • Is there a way to take a video pause and continue playing on same video so i dont have to start a new video on my ipad 2

    is there a way to start a video on my ipad 2 pause and continue playing on same video so i do have to start another video

    In I movie, load the player with your clip.  Play it until the frame you want is in the viewing window.  Then take a screen shot and the whole screen wil be captured and placed in the camera roll.  You can then crop it down to just the picture, or portion of the picture you want.
    Not elegant, but functional.

  • My ipod classic pauses and unpauses spontaneously.

    My ipod classic pauses for one or two seconds and then begins playing again. This is extremely annoying and shouldn't happen with a $400.00 mp3 player. I listen to my ipod all day while at work. My ipod does this about 30 times throughout each day. Anybody know how to fix this?

    Hopefully just a reset will help.

  • New MacBook making strange sounds...

    Alright, I know already that MacBook's have been known to make some strange sounds (buzzing noise near the top left of the keyboard etc.) but this noise has been driving me crazy...
    The sound comes from around the center to the bottom right of the keyboard and sounds like I guess a bubbling/gargling-ish scratching sound I guess. I have no idea where the CPU is on the MacBook so maybe it's coming from that? It's very difficult to explain but it's the only other strange sound I've heard besides the buzz in the top left corner so maybe some of you know what I'm talking about.
    Well anyways, it's been driving me nuts and I was wondering if there's any way to get rid of this sound? Sorry if this is a bit vague, it's difficult to explain so if you need anymore information, I'll get back to you asap.

    I went to the Apple Store today to get it looked at and they couldn't find any problems with it. They ran all sorts of tests, and found nothing wrong with it. However, when I got home from the Apple Store, about an hour after starting my MacBook up, I start to hear a crackling sound come from the Hard Drive. Is this normal and should I be worried? Because even though the genius said that my HD is fine, I'm still worried since I've never heard this sound coming from it so loudly and consistently.

  • IPod Play/Pause and Sound Issue

    After the recent 3.1.2 update I'm having a problem with my iPhone's sound cutting out. It's not the speaker because I can reboot the iPhone and it will come back. I'm also having the issue where when I hit the play button in the iPod app after it switches to the pause button it immediately reverts back to the play button. Has anyone had/resolved the issues?

    I was just coming in here to search for an issue like this, and found this thread.
    I started experiencing what seems like this same issue yesterday. When playing MUSIC ONLY on the iPod, iPhone 3G, random skipping, within the songs, pausing etc. is occurring. This is not occurring when playing podcasts however.
    The other oddity here is it does not happen, when playing through headphones. It's only happening when using an auxiliary cable through my car stereo. I know there is nothing wrong with the jack, or plug, as other devices, including another phone\ipod work just fine.
    I'm calling Apple regarding this as I literally just had the phone replaced due to a problem with the ring\vibrate switch falling off, so this is a new\replacment 3G. It's been updated to the latest of everything, so this is really disturbing me at this point.
