Music player no longer responds on my iPod

I have an iPod Youch 3th gen. Since I upgraded to the latest iOS 5.1 my music player (the standard Apple one) no longer responds on my iPod. I get a blank screen for a couple of seconds and then quits. Synching with iTunes appears to work fine. The songs are still on my iPod (I can find them through searching in the generic search) but when clicking on them to play them, I get the same results as described above.
All other apps work fine.
Can anyone help ?

Try:
- Unsyncing and resyncing all the music
- Reset the iPod. 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

Did you try to reset the device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?

My computer is no longer responding to my iPod && my iPod is not charging.

Please help me. I don't know why, but on the 26th, I downloaded songs onto my iPod, but today, my iPod won't charge, my computer won't respond to my iPod, and under devices on iTunes, my iPod is no longer there. Also, this question is all over the boards, but iTunes store is not opening right either. I know I have a lot of problems, but I'm really bummed that my iPod is not doing what I want it to.

Well, it let me download a few songs when I went through iTunes mini store, but I still am having the problem about my iPod not charging. I've only had this thing for 2 days and I'm already frustrated. Please help me if you can!

Back in may I bout a new ford focus that has sync. It used to connect to my phone with bluetooth and play music that is on my phone. Now when I try to access the music on my phone it no longer recognizes it as a music player. It can however recognize it as a phone. Sync still connects to other music players through bluetooth.

1)Copy all your songs, pics, vids from your memory card to your computer.Then
2)Format your memory card through your computer by right click--format. Do not check the option "Quick Format".Then
3)Insert the memory card in your phone and format it by the phone.Then
4)Download any video converterfrom here-- http://www.any-video-converter.com/download-avc-free.php and install it in your pc.Then
5)Convert all your music files to .aac format.Remember convert all the music files to .aac format.Then
6)Convert all your videos to .mp4 format.Then
7)Copy all the stuff(music,videos..etc)into your memory card.Then

ARRgggghh same here. download files, then the player hangs. I had it go on for hours to resolve the problem itself. Then I had to press the cancel button, AND now it will not even show what was previously recorded in the music library. I am NOT impressed by this nor how Nokia (not) responds to this., bad bad bad!.
(disappointed and will toss it unless something WORKABLE is send out by the Nokia software team. Oh and the firmware update. Don;t even try that. too many colleagues of mine had the wifi die over it.!

N97 Music Player - faulty icons

Hi everyone. Thought I would post here with this little problem, as I seem to have exhausted the internet in looking for a solution.
Basically the music player short cut icon on the desktop(?) AND the 'last played' icon in the player do not work. What this leads to is if I start playing a song and move away from that playing page I cannot get back and switch off the music!
I have tried re-installing the firmware but to no avail.
Anyone help?
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Is this a problem that has just occurred or has your music player been like this since you bought the phone ? Ehen you say 'desktop' do you have a shortcut on your home screen, or do you go in the default way, menu-music ? And finally when you 'go away from the playing page' what do you mean ? Do you hide music player, go back to album, all songs, artists etc. if you leave music playing and leave music player, a long press on the silver menu button should show all open apps and you can select music, if you exit music player (close it) then last played should show next time you open music.
If this problem has occurred since purchase, a soft reset would resolve it, if it's been like it all the time it may be lack of familiarity with the operating system, if you can clarify a little, I (or someone else) may be able to help.
Good Luck

My music player crashes every time I touch Genres. 3rd Generation

My music player crashes every time I touch Genres. I can't choose from genres, which means that I cannot play Audiobooks or Podcasts or anything on that page. The "default" page on the player is the Playlist page. Is there a way to reinstall just the music player? I have 3rd generation iPod Touch with current software as of 6/21/12. Thanks for the help.

No, you can't reinstall just the player.
Try the following:
- Reset the iPod. 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

Lumia 720 vibrations and music player problem

The disturbing vibrations occur while operating the phone..absolutely disgusting this problem is..your phone simply vibrates and you can do nothing but wait till the vibrations stop and the screen goes back ,changes and what not during this..the only thing you could probably do is lock your phone..but that is not a solution..very poor and totally unexpected in a phone you buy after paying so much..moreover the newest discovery in the list of problems is freezing of the music player..not responding to volume adjustments..please look into all this..making me wonder if i did the right thing by buying nokia !

Is it possible to install a different music player on the iPod

I wonder if the music player on the iPod can be replaced?
I am an cyckling instructor and use the iPod to play music in my classes.
I would very much like to have the following possibilites -in landscape mode- without having to touch the iPod (all information in the same view):
-name of the song
-how long is a song in minutes and seconds
-how much has been played of the song in minutes and seconds
-how much is left of the song in minutes and seconds
-what is the name of the next song in the playlist
-larger letters and numbers. difficult to see when I'm sitting on the bike with the iPod one metres from me. (Cyckling in the gym).
Can this be done?
Can one suggest Apple to do a thing like this or can a player be developed by independent developers?
Regards Julenissen

correct me if i'm wrong but cant you get that information in portrait mode, by tapping the screen?
there is no way to make the text bigger though.
but if you want a different music player, buy a different music player. i can't see apple wanting to allow 'different' players on their products. they may consider different feature requests though.

How do i stop my ipod touch from reverting back to the default music player everytime i get back in my car?

The only place I use my Ipod Touch is in my car that has an iPod connection and the steering wheel controls, but I mostly listen to audio books with the audible app. Everytime I get in my car instead of the iPod just picking up where it left off with the audible app it picks up playing whatever was last listened to with the default music player. How can I stop this? Although sometimes it will pick up with the audible app where it stopped when I last used the car (the time I spend with it not playing in the car doesn't seem to make a difference.). Just a little side question is there anyway to get rid of the newstand app, safari, messaging, facetime, gamecenter and all those other app that apple forces upon it's users?

There is nothing yo can do to return to the app you want.
You can't delete the apps that came with the iPod. Except for NewsbStand, you can put the apps you do not want into one folder and move it to the last screen
