My 2nd generation ipod will not stay on an app

my 2 nd generation ipod will not stay on an app for instance ghost radar classic stays on for a minute then goes to app store

Believe it or not the iPod can go for months on end without ever completely powering down. Sometimes it helps to simply reboot it like any computer.
The following article explains how to do that, and more:

  • HT4623 my 2nd. generation ipod will not update the software from 2.2 to 4

    my 2nd. geration ipod will not update the software from 2.2 to 4 or 6.

    Are you sure you have a 2G? A 1G can only go to 2.1 via iTunes but a 1G can go as high as 3.1.3 that you get here:
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    Identifying iPod models
    To If you do have a 2G that can go to 4.2.1 by:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
    For 4.2.1 you need iTunes version 10.X and that requires OSX 105.8 or later.
    If you have 10.4.11 you can only go to iOS 4.1 since that OSX can on go to iTunes 9.X

  • Fourth Generation iPod will not stay in Sync with iTunes

    My wife has a 20GB 4th generation Ipod that she uses everyday. Every 2-3 weeks the some of the playlists will not play. When entering a the playlist it will advance through the entire list and then will go back to the main menu. This does not happen with all lists but when re-syncing with iTunes it will work for a few weeks then start again. Any Help?

    Have you tried the basics?

  • My 2nd generation shuffle will not sync with itunes. Why?

    I have done everything I can think of. I have restarted my mac several times, restarted Itunes and my 2nd generation shuffle will not show up in my iTunes. I just updated my iTunes and Mac to the latest version. Any help? Why wont my itunes connect to my ipod shuffle??

    When iTunes is NOT running, does the shuffle show up on the Desktop, or appear in Disk Utility (when you run it)? Or, if you run System Profiler
    Apple Menu -> About This Mac -> More Info -> System Report (if running Lion)
    does the shuffle appear as a device under Hardware/USB?
    If it is being recognized by the Mac in some way, you may be able to get it working again, using the iPod Reset Utility
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1238
    This utility is for 1st and 2nd gen iPod shuffles only, as a "lower level" reset when you can't do a regular Restore in iTunes.
    If the Mac is not seeing the shuffle at all, there is probably a problem with the USB connection, probably the USB cable/dock or the connection point on the shuffle (headphone jack) becoming faulty.  To rule out the USB port in the Mac, be sure to try different ports.  If you have been using a USB hub (or the spare keyboard port), be sure to try a direct port on the Mac.  And be sure to try it with ALL other USB devices (except standard mouse and keyboard) disconnected, in case there is some USB device conflict happening.

    I have followed all the 5-R's, resetting, retry,restarting, reinstall itunes, restore.  I realize this is an older ipod nano, but it works great but just not communicating with my laptop or ipod player.

  • Ever since I updated my iPod software my iPod will not connect to the app store and won't let me download anything. help

    ever since I updated my iPod software my iPod will not connect to the app store and won't let me download anything. help

    Hook it up to your computer and open itunes. try to download hte apps via your computer. Every time you update hte software you have to reagree to the itunes terms of service. Sometimes it's hard to get it to come up on the device, but is easier on a computer.

  • 2nd generation ipod shuffle not recognized by usb 3.0 port, 2nd generation ipod shuffle not recognized by usb 3.0 port

    Hi,
    My 2nd generation ipod shuffle will not connect to any usb 3.0 port.  I've tried on to computers -- one Windows XP and the other Windows 7.  Any ideas?

    Hi
    I had the same issue with my Late 2009 Mac mini running Mavericks and iTunes 12. When I connected my 2nd generation iPod shuffle it would blink amber once then do nothing. This seems to be a common problem with the iPod shuffle and newer versions of Mac OS X (10.6 and up) and iTunes albeit with somewhat varying symptoms but the same overall problem syncing the iPod with iTunes.
    The predominant go-to solution is to give the iPod more power by either connecting the iPod directly to a USB port on the Mac or by disconnecting all other USB devices. On paper this makes sense.
    What worked for me, however, was the opposite. After trying to solve this problem for hours (weeks, months), I had success ONLY after adding a low-powered 4-port USB hub to the chain between the iPod and the Mac. I suspect this had the effect of throttling the power supplied to the iPod from the Mac. I was able to perform a restore on the iPod then sync my music over.
    I can't tell you much about the USB hub except that it is running at USB 1.1 speeds (12 Mb/sec). In theory a USB 1.1 extension cable should also do the trick. You might even be able to use the USB hub in old wired Apple USB keyboard. I will attach a photo of the hub I used to this post for greater clarity.
    I really hope this helps.

  • I have a 2nd generation Ipod and would like to get a 4th generation Ipod, will I loose all my apps if I do?

    I have a 2nd generation Ipod with lots of apps (free and paid). I would like to get a 4th generation Ipod but do not know if I will loose all my apps or not? Can any one tell me?

    You will not lose your Apps. They can be reloaded onto your new iPod Touch.

  • 2nd Gen iPod will not charge in Windows 7 machine.

    My 2nd Gen ipod will sync to iTunes just fine, but will not charge.  Windows 7 shows a problem (yellow triangle) in Devices.  I've got the latest Windows Updates, iTunes version, and iPod update.  It works fine with our Windows Vista machines, just not my newer Win 7 laptop.  What is going on?

    Is the iPod being plugged into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the Win 7 machine?  Are there any other USB devices plugged into the Win 7 machine? If so, remove them, reboot the machine and reconnect the Shuffle.

  • 2nd generation Ipod nano not syncing?

    My 2nd generation Ipod nano won't sync up with my Itunes library anymore after updating to Mountain Lion and the latest version of Itunes.  I plug it into the USB port on the laptop and the Ipod beeps and seems to be getting charged by the laptop but no sign of connectivity on Itunes.  I've also got an Ipod shuffle that I used just earlier today and it seemed to work fine with the same set up.  I'd like to switch back to using the Nano though and it seems to work fine other than Itunes not recognizing it now.  I know it's old but if it seems to work fine and i'd like to keep using it if I can sync it up.  Early 2011 15" Macbook Pro OSX 10.8.2. 

    I have unfortuantly had the exact same problem following my update to iTunes 11.
    Incase someone explains the problem for me and not you, here is the link to my post. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4755057
    Best of luck getting it to work!

  • Ipod will not stay connected for more then a few seconds

    I was going to update my nano this morning after downloading the newest version of software, and first off it said the firmware was corrupt. so then I restored it, and it would not restore to the new version so i used the older version. the ipod seems to work in my hand but when i connect it to my computer it will not stay connected for more then a few seconds, then it ejects its self, but itunes still shows it as being there even though the rest of the computer does not
    I have not had any issues with it since i bought it which was last june.
    any ideas?
    John

    Hi John,
    I would suggest, with your iPod disconnected, that you force your iPod into disk mode (following the instructions in this article)
    Connect your iPod to your computer.
    Then, try restoring it in iTunes while it is connected in disk mode.
    Can you successfully restore your iPod?
    If so, when the restoring and resyncing process is all complete, now update your iPod to the latest firmware.
    Any success with trying that?

  • My 2nd generation Ipod red light stays on

    I got a 2nd Generation Ipod Shuffle, and it was fantastic up until now.
    It was docked and the green light was on, So i ejected it, and the green light just stayed on. The ipod was off, up until i turned it on after removing it from the dock. Shortly after my ipod's light turned red and isn't recognized by itunes anymore. The light just stays red and doesn't shut off whether the ipod is on or off. I put the ipod back on the dock hoping that something would happen but it just stays the same. i turn the ipod on, and nothing happens whatsoever. the red light just stays on and nothing happens.
    Something is obviously wrong with my ipod, can someone please help me?! I'm extremely frusterated by this, it worked just fine, and i plugged it in to charge it and ever since then it hasn't been the same.
