Music stops

I just purchased this ipod and the music stops after playing for a few minutes. The screen goes black and the music stops. The battery shows that it has a charge.

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing will be 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

Using RMBP in clamshell mode w/ Remote App music stops

Hi,
I've got my MacBook Pro connected to the internal DAC in my Peachtree Audio nova125 integrated stereo amplifier via USB. This allows me play music in iTunes on my MacBook Pro via my stereo speakers.
Excellent, but there's a problem...
I keep the MacBook Pro closed (I.e. It's running in clamshell mode) and use the Apple Remote app from my iPad to access my iTunes library and play music on the MacBook Pro.
This works great for about 20 seconds and then the music stops.
If I stay in the Remote App on the iPad I observe the screen refresh when the music stops, like the Remote App is re-connecting to iTunes. If I close the Remote app or switch to a different iPad app the same thing happens... The music keeps going for about 20 seconds and then stops.
After the music stops, when the Remote app screen refreshes if I left the the Remote app open, or when I re-open the Remote app if I closed it or switched to a different iPad app... The screens comes back with the same view of my iTunes library it had before, with the same song selected and paused at the same spot it stopped at.
If I then press play the music starts again and the cycle repeats.
Why?
This is clearly a flaw.
I want the music to keep playing until I go back into the Remote App (or open the MacBook Pro and go to iTunes directly) and stop it.
Any insights as to why this is happening and how to make it work properly would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

As you can see no one has provided any info here, but I'll post what I've learned in the hopes it may help you.
Short answer: According to a local Apple Store genius, Apple does not support running a RMBP w Mavericks in clamshell mode unless the RMBP is connected to an external display.
Other info:
-I tried selecting the "Prevent App Nap" checkbox in iTunes.app>Get Info, but this doesn't make it work.
-I also Googled some info that stated there's a 3rd party app available you could install that might/should make it work, but it sounded like an inelegant solution so I didn't try it and don't have any more info on that.
-Now I either plug the RMBP into my TV via HDMI if I want to run it in clamshell, or if I don't mind leaving the RMBP open I just turn on the iTunes visualizer in full screen mode.
I hope this helps.

TS1717 The music stops unexpectedly but if I shut down and launch itumes again it will play for a short time again.I am using a single computer with Apple TV to connect to my sound system. I am running Windows 7. Any suggestions?

Why does the music stop playing after 5-15 minutes.? If I shut down and relaunch itune it will work for another 10 minutes then stop again.
I a running a single computer connected to my APpple TV wirelessly.

Hello LindaHarp,
It sounds like you are listening to iTunes Radio and it stops shortly after you start listening. I recommend starting by signing out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes & App Stores. Then close all the running apps on the device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone and test the issue by signing back in to your account, and testing again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Music stops with Etymotic earphones and undocumented feature in iPod

I have been using these Etymotic ER-6 with an iPod 4th generation without any problem, but after upgrading to an iPod Video, things have not been as smooth.
It seems that there is a new undocumented feature in the iPod Video. If you unplug your earphones, the music stops automatically. Which is great. The problem is that the Etymotic earphones have a 90 degree plug, prone to move sideways. When it moves, the music stops.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem?
G5 & iPod Video Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Haven't had a "problem" with that feature as my connector is straight however, it would have been nice if they applied the same feature for "Dock Removal" so it pauses when lifted from a dock.

Music stops when screen goes to sleep but my headphones are inserted correctly?

I have an Ipod nano 6th Gen, and when the screen goes to sleep the music stops. I have set up my sleep/wake button to play/pause so when the screen goes black and the music has stopped, I press the sleep/wake button twice and the music starts again without the screen coming back on. I have read other comments and I have made sure that my headphones are all the way there does not appear to be anything obstructing the headphones either. Is anyone able to help me? Thank you

Solved by using a 3rd party music player that can access the library on the iPad and no longer using Apple's iPod app.

Music stops in Safari?

x_X music keeps stopping when I am in Safari whilst I'm browsing, the typing sound also starts playing when the music stops [[in the earphones]] also when I double ta the home key to get it back in it takes forever and I have that 1.1.2 thing

In my opinion, the previous ipods haven't seemed as "buggy" as the ipod touch, but you have to remember that they pretty much had only one task to handle at a time - playing music. No excuse though, I would think that the touch has the ability to do other things while playing music, and hopefully they will fix it so that it works more reliably.

My new ipod classic does not work anymore! The music stopped and the display is dead. What now, besides calling support?

My new ipod classic does not work anymore! The music stopped and the display is dead. What now, besides calling support? Useless to say my PC didn't recognize the Ipod anymore either.

Anton, I wish I could help. I had an old iPod Classic (60 KB) as a gift but it went dead, I dropped it a few times accidentally, and it sat carefully saved until I had sufficient resources, energy and time to get the matter addressed. In my case, I actually took the thing (after making sure it was charged) to an Apple store and one of the geniuses at the genius bar at the back of the store took it and did a few things (unseen and un-noted) with his fingers and handed it to me with a sly smile. Voila, the thing was functional. I got a re-functionalized iTunes account and store access when I bought my iMac. I did lose a few tunes along the way because it didn't recognize my new iMac as the source (my old dead PC laptop), but I have a more functional memory than the iPod and recovered them all in other ways. The whole thing is humming better than ever. At over 11 gb full, I have 4.2 days worth of portable listening. Be patient; it took me four years to get musical nirvana in a pocket, but you'll get there faster. Call support.

I was listening to iPod nano in docking station and pressed center button and music stopped playing and a high pitched sound is emitting from iPod.

Help-music stops after playing for 1 minute

I bought a used ipod nano 6th generation and the music stops playing after 1 minute. In order to get it going again I have to press the on/off button, slide the clock away, then the album artwork and the play button are again available but on pause.
What's going on and how do I fix it?
Thank you.

Double check to make sure your headphones/earbuds are plugged ALL the way in, meaning you cannot see any metal part of the jack. You might have to give it a little bit of extra force to get it to fully insert.

Fix for AppleTV photo slide show music stopping after abut 20 minutes?

Fix for AppleTV photo slide show music stopping after abut 20 minutes?

Just ran another series of tests ... I am now convinced that AppleTV's slideshow/screensaver is broken.
Too often it will 'get stuck' on one photo for minutes then show no photo and finally move on; in fact it is doing it right now.
I don't ever remember seeing this occur before the last upgrade.

The music stops when clicking another window! How do you fix in Audition CS6?

The music stops recording when I click into another window! How do you fix in Audition CS6?

For all the information about this, you need to read this FAQ. It tells you what to do (easy - just remove the check from Release ASIO Driver in Background), but also what the implications are.

Slideshows Music stops and goes back to the beginning

Just today i created a couple of slideshows with my new MBP and the problem is that in both slides shows, music stops in the same moment and goes back to the beginning, although slideshow continues going on.
Each slide show has a different song, but this happen at the same moment.
I have a MB and doing exactly the same slideshows with the same photos and music, I don't have this problem
thanks

I just read that converting the music to AAC files, will fix this.
But why is happening this???.
I mean, in my other Macbook i don't have this problem, same slideshow with the same music works perfect.
thanks

Is it possible for my phone and my Nano to share the same bluetooth device? If so, does the music stop when receiving a phonecall?

This might be a totally dumb Q, but I am so tech challenged it is pitiful. Is it possible for my phone and my Nano to share the same bluetooth device? If so, does the music stop on the Nano when receiving a phonecall?

No, the BT protocol does not allow for an A2DP device to be simultaneously connected to two iOS devices.

TS3700 music stops playing when the screen goes dark, but the earbud jack is flush with the iPod. The Jack is hard to push in now. what is the problem?

Music stops playing when the screen goes dark; the earbud jack is flush with the iPod. The Jack is hard to push in. what is the problem? How do I Fix it?

And you are positive the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?
Have you tried another set of headphones to see if the problem persisted? If so, it's likely that the headphone jack needs replacing.
