My iPod doesn't play songs...it's scanning them. Help.

My iPod doesn't play the songs. When I select a song, I press play and it bounces right back to the menu. Then, all on its own, it begins to scan through everyone of my 1,200 songs. What's happening? I did restart it an also re-booted the pod...nothing...same thing. Any suggestions? Would it help if I erased everything in the iPod?

Yep, a restore would probably be the next step.

30G iPod doesn't play audio in movies or videos

My 30G iPod doesn't play audio in movies or videos... Can anybody help me?
Thanks!

What is the source of the videos and movies? Downloaded from the iTunes store or did you convert them from other sources? If the latter...
QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, iTunes & the iPod (both of which use QuickTime) only show the video and no sound.
iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files

One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

I cant get my ipod touch to play through a docking station I have recently purchased. A second ipod touch works fine. Can anyone tell me why it wont play through speakers?

What model iPod and iOS works and which does not?
Sometimes a 4G iPod will not fully sead in the dock because its case configuration is different that previous models.
Also, sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility.
Have you checked the dock manufactuer's support stie for compatibility?

I can not get my iPod touch to play through my USB port

I can not get my iPod touch to play through my USB port on my motorcycle stereo amp but a regular iPod works any suggestions on what's wrong or does any one know what Stereo amp for motorcycle will work

Contact the manufacturer of the motocycle system. Many systems are not compatible with iOS devices but work fine for the simple iPods.

Since updating our iPhone to 6.1.4 we have been unable to play it through our Bose docking station - any ideas?

But you can send an e-mail without an attachment OK?
If you can, have the admins take a look at the ActiveSync logs. Something's definitely not right. I can't imagine what it would be on the phone, though assuming the Exchange account is set up the same on all of the devices.

I upgraded my ipad 2 to ios 5.1 and it no longer recognizes or plays through my speaker dock. Help!

I just upgraded my ipad 2 to ios 5.1 and it no longer recognizes or plays through my speaker dock.
I have tried:
- multiple soft and hard resets (including various sequences published on this site... no luck)
- reseting the ipad settings (location, wifi, etc)
- 2 complete system wipe-out and restore cycles
- changing every setting I can think of
I still have normal sound from the device when it is not docked. When docked, my device still charges and it clearly recognizes it is plugged into something (as the volume slider will no longer function with the side keys while docked) but it won't play and eventually it gives me a message that says "accessory not supported by ipad." This speaker dock is designed specifically for ipad (brookstone idesign boombox) and worked flawlessly until 2 days ago when I installed the ios 5.1 update.
Please help!

Not quite the same problem but my speaker dock no longer charges iPad1 and iPhone4 since upgrading to iOS5.1 but was playing and charging only the day before, extremely annoying as I have only had the dock about 3 weeks now.
I haven't tried my iPad3 yet, but will assume that it will do the same

My iPod won't play music on my dock. It still charges on the dock. The dock will still play other iPods

My iPod will not play music on any dock. It will still charge on a dock though. The docks all work with other iPods, just not mine. I have tried to reset it by pressing down on the home and power buttons but it didn't change anything.

Are the other iPods 4G iPods with iOS 6.1.3?
If it worked before with 6.1.3 then:
- Make sure the i{od is fully sated in the dick
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Help - ipod doesn't play songs but skips through them

My ipod suddenly started skipping through songs and that's all it does. It will not play music or video, just skips through it to the next one, and no album art is showing on anything. Does anyone have any advice or help?

Does your iPod do this with every song on it?
How long has this been happening?
Also, try playing the songs, then in the middle of a skipping session, press "pause" on it. Does the album art show then? If that's the case, then simply your iPod bogs up when doing all that skipping. If that's not the case, then the album art hasn't loaded correctly.
As for the skipping through everything, if you reset your iPod (I think that's what it's called, not formatting, or something..). That will refresh it, and may take care of it. You will lose settings and stuff, though.

IPod doesn´t play songs anymore - it just keeps skipping through the playli

st
When I select to play a song - no matter if selected from the menu via interpret / album or title, it goes to the list of songs, but doesn´t play them. It keeps skipping the tracks (1 to 2, to 3 and so on) until the end of the playlist is reached. Then, it returns to the main menu. Is it just some software bug, which can be solved or is it broken?
I appreciate any help!

You can use yamipod http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/ to copy from iPod to the PC. If the files are damaged/corrupt on the iPod tho this won't do much good cuz you'll just have a copy of damaged files. Just use yamipod to copy and see if they play fine on the PC. If they do then you can continue with a restore using the iPOd updater. If that does not work it MAY be that the iPod is damaged and you will have to send it in for repairs

Ipod doesn't play the songs! please help!!

when i try to play a song, the title of the song just like sits there but it doesn't play, like the numbers don't go forward, it just sits at 0:00. It isnt frozen because i can change the volume and do everything else. When i click the middle button to toggle from volume to how far into the song i am, if i scroll over a bit to make me further in the song, it just changes to the next one.
Just now i tried going to the next song or something and whats happening now is every song i have is like popping up on the screen, like its scrolling through all my songs one by one till it got to the end and now its at the main menu.
Can anyone please help????

Try resetting your iPod and/or resyncing the files to the iPod. Also below are two articles that may help
