My iPod keeps repeating the name of the song and playlist

This was so weird. I'm off on a great run last week, and right in the middle of a song, the computer voice announced the song, then the artist, then the playlist. The song came back up, then immediately it happened again. And again, and again. It happened about 10 times before I took the iPod off and put it in my pocket. Any idea what's going on??

Did your headphones become slightly disconnected? Someone else this morning noted that it occurs when they disconnect and reconnect... I had a similar issue when I switched between headphones and aux input for my vehicle.
If it's still doing it, try a restore next.... That is indeed strange, but if the headphone jack became slightly disconnecte it could be related to what is been identified earlier today.

    my iPod keeps repeating the song

    Garey,
    Make sure the Repeat setting has not been enabled.  See your iPod's User Guide for more information.

  • My IPOD keeps repeating the song. I've had it for almost a year and it has been fine. All of a sudden it has started repeating. Help!

    I've had my ipod nano for almost a year. It has worked fine. All of a sudden it has started to repeat. I've tried everything. Help!

    It's pretty easy to accidentally set the Nano to repeat. Have a look at the manual (download the manual here) on page 21.

  • When connected to iTunes, my iPod 6th generation shows all the songs and playlists in it but with exclamation points. When disconnected, it is empty.

    Hi there!
    I bought an iPod touch 6th generation about a year ago and it was working perfectly until now. On Tuesday, I updated -manually- like six songs to my iPod and it appeared like it worked but when I disconnected it the songs weren't on my iPod. Since then I tried the same twice and it wasn't until today that I looked for the songs on the iPod while it was connected to iTunes. The songs were there, but they appeared as if the iPod was still trying to copy them, I deleted them and copy them again and it finally worked.
    The problem was when I unplugged the iPod and open my music there... all my songs were missing except for those six ones I copy minutes before. I connected it back to iTunes and everything was right were it was supposed to be but my iPod still had the most recent songs. When I try to play the songs appearing on the iPod music on iTunes, an exclamation point appears beside them.
    I read it is because it can't find where the music came from but I haven't found a way to let the iPod know the songs are still there. I would really appreciate your help because I don't want to lose my music and playlists.

    The ! means the actual music files can't be found.
    If the ! is in iTunes on the computer the redownload/reimport the songs.
    If on the iPod:
    - 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.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

  • New iPod keeps displaying the folder and "!"

    Hi. Yesterday was my birthday, and I got a new iPod nano, 2GB. After some trouble, I finally got Windows and iTunes to recognize the iPod, and all that good stuff. Now, the problem is that when I try to actually do something with it, it keeps displaying a folder with an exclamation point by it, with the website "www.apple.com/support/ipod" and I can't do anything else with it. I don't understand what it's trying to say... Did I miss a step or is it just not done charging, or something else?

    Okay... so, scatch that last question. I fixed that by installing the new updater.
    But now I'm back to where I was last night.
    The "Do Not Disconnect" screen won't go away, and the iPod isn't showing up as being connected with iTunes.

  • When I play my music from my playlist it will not advance to the next song, it just repeats the song over.  I have to advance to the next song manually.

    When I am playing my music it will not advance to the next song, it just keeps repeating the song.  The only way to go to the next song is to do it manually.  It just started this after the last update.  How do I fix it, hard to listen to at the gym.

    Check the song and see if repeat is activated. Down in the bottom left corner is repeat when the music is running. It would have a colored box around it if it is active. It would either read Repeat Song, or Repeat Playlist.

  • How do I get songs from itunes match on my ipod classic if the songs are no longer on my hard drive?

    I synced my I tunes to Match a few weeks ago, and I then deleted the music from my hard drive. I just bought an ipod classic 160g and I cant get it to sync from my library now, even though all the songs and playlists showup on my computer sitll (and play) from match. I have the hardrive space to download the 150gigs of songs, but I'm not sure if thats whats need, or even how to get everyting back on my computer now so that I can sync it.
    Help Please!

    The actual files must be on the computer HDD to be synced to an iPod Classic. Syncing of that model of iPod will not work if the files are not there.
    If you are going to re-add the files back to your library the best way to do it is to restore from the backup you made before you deleted all the song files.

  • I can't get my ipod to shuffle my music, it only keeps repeating the current song.

    All of a sudden my ipod nano won't shuffle my music.  It will only repeat the song it is on over and over and you have to manually hit forward to go to another song.  HELP.

    Thanks, but repeat isn't on.  Was atleast smart enough to check that.  Thanks anyway...

  • My iPod keeps showing the apple logo + a blank screen and the lock screen keeps freezing when trying to unlock it.

    Last night I turned my iPod touch 4g off randomly and then when I went to turn it back on and went to unlock the screen it froze up right there and will not unlock to the home screen to where all my apps and all that are. Ever since that happened the iPod keeps showing the apple logo repeatedly, as well as a screen being completely blank when still turned on. Also when i plug in the iPod to the computer it recognizes it for a second but the iPod does nothing and shuts off and repeats in showing the apple logo and blank black screen. I can get it to the home screen where the slide to lock button is but every time i even attempt to slide it, it freezes up and doesn't do it.
    I also having been trying to restore it by plugging in the cord and pressing the home button to get the screen with the usb cord to pop up but no matter what i do, it will not let me turn the iPod off period because every time i keep trying to do that it just shows the apple logo and all of what i said up above again. I have also seen it get a white screen to show a few times , which i assume means the white screen of death. I have never seen that screen before this happened.
    I know this is not making any sense whatsoever but this is very hard to put into words in explaining. I have searched the internet but i can't find a single problem that sounds like this one in solving to fix it. The iPod is on right now as i'm typing this. I haven't attemtped to push the buttons down again to fix as i would assume maybe to just leave it alone as i sleep through the night in hopes of it maybe working or even dying. I've only had this iPod for 4 months now and i just don't understand why it won't let me turn it off completely or work properly for me to restore it.

    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 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.

  • Music spontaneously starts, stops, stutters at random and I'm not even using that app. Repeated attempts to pause the song and close the app have no affect. Just keeps popping on and off randomly no matter what I'm doing at the time.

    How do I eliminate this glitch?  Music spontaneously starts, stops, stutters at random and I'm not even using that app. Repeated attempts to pause the song and close the app have no affect. Just keeps popping on and off randomly no matter what I'm doing at the time. I tried double-clicking the Home button which brings up all of the active apps, touched and held the Music icon until all the icons started wiggling, tapped the Close icon in the upper left corner of the Music app to close the app completely, but the app is still open and still randomly stuttering. I did notice that the play button icon flashes in the upper right corner of the screen when this happens and it appears and disappears in concurrence with the Music app stuttering. When the music starts, the icon appears and when it stops, the icon disappears again. When the music stutters on and off, the icon appears and disappears rapidly and in sync with that random glitch. This just started today for no apparent reason. I turned the iPad off, waited 30 seconds and turned it back on. As soon as it was finished starting up, the same music glitch began again immediately. I'm using iOS 6.1.3.

    Well, no one seems to have any answers or ideas for me, I'll update what I've been able to accomplish.
    I reloaded all 14 disks in the time frame of watching Lord of the Rings on Fri. nite.
    Funny thing is, the first disk pulled the info from the online store! Hooray!
    Wait-then all the next 13 could find no information online...what the heck is up with that? So I MANUALLY assign each disk a new track # to co-inside with each disk, spent about 2 hours doing that.
    But still, itunes tells me my playlist is too large, there's not enough space on the ipod. so I unchecked 1 1/2 disks (I'd listen to 1/2 of disk 1 previously) and voila! there's my ipod full of my book. Finally. But what a lot of bother just to keep things in order!

  • Ok. So my iTunes started acting up a few months ago. ALL of the songs I purchased from the iTunes store stop in the middle of the song and then go back to the begining (I keep it on repeat one song by the way). Please help!!! (Windows 7)

ALL of the songs I purchased from the iTunes store stop in the middle of the song and then go back to the begining (I keep it on repeat one song by the way). Please help!!! (Windows 7) I would really like to hear my songs all the way through, but I can't . I tried the "Convert Protected ACC files to Purchased ACC files fix" but it DIDN'T work. I don't know what to do. It does it when I transfer the music onto my Classic too.

    What do you mean "doesn't recognize"?
