Itouch pauses while playing...

My Ipod touch will just pause while it's playing and the volume bar with go up and down, and tell me that I'm using my headphones when I'm really not. What's wrong with it?

It sounds like there are issues with the headphone jack internals.
As your most likely aware, the volume has two setting, one with the headphones plugged in, and one using the built in speaker.
The switch inside the headphone jack is probably defective.

  • Why does my iPod Classic keep pausing while playing music in a dock?

    Hi, can anyone help with this? I am playing music through the iPod Classic on a Philips docking speaker and every few minutes it pauses. This is so maddening, what can I do to stop it. Thanks

    From my own experience recently, I would suspect that the Philips dock is faulty. However, that won't get you very far, so as a method for narrowing down the problem, ask yourself the following:
    Has the iPod/Philips dock combination ever worked?
    How are you connecting the iPod with the dock? Is it the docking connector, a cable, bluetooth?
    How long does it work before it pauses (time it)? Is it the same time each attempt?
    Can you try the iPod with a friend's dock, or can you try the dock with another iPod? What happens?

  • HD Rentals Pause while playing 100% downloaded.

    I've rented 2 HD movies on my Apple TV. With each movie I allowed the movie to completely download before watching it (I rented it several days before I began watching). In both movies I get random pauses where the video and sound freeze for a few seconds. Is anyone else seeing this issue? I'm streaming a large music library from my iMac via wireless. The Apple TV is connected via ethernet to a Netgear router.

    Same problem as Robert. Using an 802.11g wireless internet connection to connect to my ATV (which is, I believe 802.11n)
    I thought this could be the source of the problem, but even fully downloaded movies stutter like this.
    Apple customer service couldn't provide the answer.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    maybe because of your download is not fully completed.

  • Ipod pauses automatically while playing

    I have a 4th gen ipod that shuts off (pauses) while playing. I think it is associated with jiggling the ear phone jack. I notice that if I unplug the headset, it goes into pause. Is this a feature that I can control?

    Your diagnosis is correct. This is a 'feature' that cannot be turned off. Notice my quotes around feature! You might try different earbuds, an extender that fits more snuggly, or even tape.

  • While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and slide the scrub through songs.  This has always worked for me until now. I have not changed any settings

    While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and scrub through songs.  This has always worked for me until now. As far as i know, i have not changed any settings.  This is whle my phone is locked both on the slide up toolbar/menu interface and on the normal screen before i slide to unlock.

    I skimmed through this very long post but from what I read, this sounds much more like a coverage issue with your network than a device issue.  I have not seen or heard of this issue before and I do not have this issue personnally and & I use the music app quite frequently while working in the yard.
    The DND feature should not be a factor at all if you're sure it's turned off.  I always recommend restarting your phone by holding down the home button + the lock button for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Once the phone reboots, do a test to see if this has helped to resolve the issue.
    If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.  Then, test it out again.  Post back if neither of these solutions solve your issue.

  • Songs are pausing several times(pausing every few seconds in a song) while playing in iTunes in mac what to do??

    while playing a song in itunes on my mac each song pauses atleast twice or thrice in a minute. what to do please guide.

    first the mac started acting slow and eventually the itunes started pausing.
    This does not look like an iTunes problem. I'll ask the hosts to move this to the Lion forum.
    Check, if the problem is system wide or only happens when working from your user account. Try to use iTunes logged in as a different user. Do you get a better performance?
    What model of Mac are you using? How much RAM does the mac have?
    Have a look at the second half of this document, if anything applies to your situation:

  • Itunes Windows 7 64bit Pauses and Studders while playing movies.

    NOTE : I have been having this problem since the last update,  No previous issues before this.
    While playing purchased Itunes TV episodes or Movies using itunes, the movie will freeze then "Catch up" in fast foward several times during the playing of the show.  Tried a lot of troubleshooting ideas I have read here with no avail.  Put Itunes into safe mode, re installed intunes and quicktime from scratch .. nothing seems to work..
    HELP !!

    it actually causes the drive to go into a closed read cycle, and then the drive disappears from my computer and I have to reboot.
    Odd. That sounds a bit like a device filter issue. But your filters look fine in your diagnostics.
    iTunes 9.1.1.11 was just released today ... I don't see any changes in the package for that that have obvious relevance to a CD burning issue, but it might be worth trying an update, just in case. (There's a library file update with this one, so it may take a while for your iTunes to launch the first time you launch it after the update.)

  • Animated GIF image gets distorted while playing.

    Hi,
    I have some animated gif images which I need to show in a jLabel and a jTextPane. But some of these images are getting distorted while playing in the two components, though these images are playing properly in Internet Explorer. I am using the methods insertIcon() of jTextPane and setIcon() of jLabel to add or set the gif images in the two components. Can you please suggest any suitable idea of how I can get rid of this distortion? Thanks in advance.

    In the code below is a self contained JComponent that paints a series of BufferedImages as an animation. You can pause the animation, and you specify the delay. It also has two static methods for loading all the frames from a File or a URL.
    Feel free to add functionality to it, like the ability to display text or manipulate the animation. You may wan't the class to extend JLabel instead of JComponent. Just explore around with the painting. If you have any questions, then feel free to post.
    The downside to working with an array of BufferedImages, though, is that they consume more memory then a single Toolkit gif image.

  • Audio cuts out at random while playing songs in itunes

    While playing songs in itunes audio will frequently drop out completely across the entire system. The song will still be in play mode but the track progress indicator doesn't move. There's no slowdown or spinning beachballs, activity monitor doesn't indicate any processes hogging resources, and there are no other noticeable effects other than zero audio output. The problem resolves temporarily if I pause itunes then click the volume up/down keys and click play again. Any clue as to how I might resolve this annoying issue?

    Hi. What OS X release? (10.x.?) iTunes? On this G4 1,25 single now connected I got 10.4.11 and iTunes 7.0.2 Works fine.

  • Marking while playing video in the event browser

    I recently switched from PC to Mac specifically to edit our home family videos. My question is how do I mark an end point in my video when viewing the video in the event browser? I understand that I could select a range of frames by clicking and dragging the yellow selection box, however I want to play the video (using the spacebar)and then stop, and mark, the video at a certain point. As soon as I move my cursor, the playhead disapears and I loose my last position. I am forced to click and drag the right of the yellow selection box to my end point but I find it not as precise as simply marking a spot while playing live playback. Any suggestions?

    While playing the clip in the event browser (with nothing selected):
    - press spacebar to pause
    - press shift+right-arrow to mark the in point
    - press spacebar to resume playback
    - press spacebar to pause
    - press shift+right-arrow to mark the out point
    You can now use left and right arrow keys to move your entire selection or use shift+right-arrow and shift+left-arrow to move the out point and resize your selection. When you're done, press E to add the selected range to the project window.

  • Zen Micro Freezing While Play

    My Zen Micro is my second MP3 player. My first one was a 2.5 GB Rio Nitrus. It was everything I needed it to be until it started acting funny. It froze up a few times while playing. Then I went on vacation and a week later when I got back and tried to use it, it froze again only this time it wouldn't restart correctly. I'm worried that I might be coming into a similar problem with my Zen Micro. It has never frozen until today. I hadn't used it in a week, similar to what happened when my Nitrus went on me. It paused for about 20 seconds when I was running on the treadmill, and then later, it completely froze. The only thing I could do to reset it was take the battery out of the back. It appears to be fine now but it has me worried. Is there anyone who owns a Zen and experienced similar problems and should this be something I worry about? It especially ticked me off today because I just spent $20 last night for a new holster and belt clip for it. Anyone have any input?Message Edited by diesel6304 on 0-06-2006 08:29 PM

    It might be because you were running on the treadmill and you experienced "head crash", where the heads reading the HDD inside your Micro hit the HDD itself. Best to not do that. I use it on the treadmill, but I only powerwalk on the treadmill......
    Oh yeah, in addition, it's normal every now and then for it to freeze (okay, not normal normal, but unless it's doing it regularly, it's not really that much to worry about). I would suggest running a disc cleanup from the recovery mode.Message Edited by RMskater on 0-06-2006 0:53 PM

  • Why do questions in presentation pause the playing?

    Can anyone resolve these issues?
    When I place a quiz question (of which there are many types) in a sequence of screens (Captivate 5 on a mac) there are issues:
    1. the subsequent screen does not play smoothly...Can I resolve this?
    Putting in a quiz question appears to slow the loading of the next screen.  I am creating a linear sequence of screens for a learning training (not a software simulation) - all screens have next buttons and I have used the Skip button on the quiz question screen to mimic next. But on preview/ publishing this does not automatically go next but it slows the next screen which appears but in fade out state.
    Clicking again does not work - it eventually loads but the timing is the same on other screens (which load perfectly) But NOT the ones that follow a quiz question screen.
    I don't want to have to create a custom screen each time. How do I do this?
    2. Does anyone know how to put other features on the screen? Links and buttons?
    3. Is there a way that user returning to the screen does not see the feedback /review state?
    Can you help?
    Thanks!

    With regard to your questions:
    1 - Are you using an LMS or do you have Quiz Reporting turned on?  If so,  try turning off quiz reporting and see if the slides play more smoothly.  I'm wondering here if the slides are pausing while the module tries to communicate with the LMS after each quiz question.  If turning off reporting seems to help, try using the new SCORM template just released by Adobe that only reports to the LMS at the end of each module.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2011/04/a-new-way-to-report-scores-to-the-lms-from-your-c aptivate-courses.html
    2 - As far as adding other types of features to a screen...
    Buttons and Click Boxes are built into Captivate and can be added to any slide except quiz slides and master slides.  Simulated rollover hyperlinks can be added via an interactive widget: http://www.infosemantics.com.au/catalog/widgets/interactive/wdgt_hyperlink_01  But since this is an interactive object as well, it also cannot be added to quiz or master slides.
    3 - Users returning to a quiz question after having answered the question will find the slide's answer is locked in and unable to be changed.  For more details, see my reply to another question earlier today regarding how Quiz Scope works in Captivate: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3681008#3681008
