My ipod keeps restarting when it is docked.

Everytime I put my ipod in it's docking station (one that doubles as a radio and alarm clock), it restarts itself. The same happens whenever I change the song when it's docked.
Please help- I've looked everywhere but I can't find a solution!
Thanks

Try resetting or restoring the iPod. Directions for doing so are in the iPod nano (5th generation) - User Guide

  • Ipod touch 2g keeps restarting when in recovery mode

    The other day my ipod started restarting on it's own while I was using it. To try and fix this I restored it to it's original settings. When I plugged it into my laptop (windows 7) itunes recognized the ipod as in recovery mode. When I tried to restore the ipod in itunes, the screen of the ipod went from the usb and itunes logo to a glitchy screen (it was shutting off and restarting, thus losing connection with the laptop) and then back to the usb screen. Ultimately, I got a 1611 error. I've tried all the suggestions for the 1611 error online (using a different computer, change usb port, put in dfl mode, etc.) but no matter what I do, my ipod keeps restarting when it's restoring. Help!

    Error 1611: This error may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured proxy or security software, such as FoxyProxy, can cause error 1611. To troubleshoot third-party security software, follow these steps.
    If you tried everthing above
    (from:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1611)
    Then you appear to have a hardware problem.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm.

  • Ipod Keeps Restarting

    I have had this problem for a few days now. My Ipod keeps restarting when it tries to play a song. I've tried to reset the factory settings, and I've tried to format everything manually, but nothing has worked.
    It happens when trying to play a song. Also happens when switching Songs clicking the wheel. It also restarts when the Nano is playing "Music Quiz".
    I've tried almost everything to fix it.

    Given the circumstances, it's most likely an issue that requires service.
    You can arrange online service here.
    Service request.
    Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.

  • I'm trying to transfer my purchases but my ipod keeps restarting

    When I transferred my purchases, it only transferred about 40 songs and then my ipod restarted itself. I need to figure out how to get my apps and songs on to my new computer. When i go to sync my apps, it says it will replace everything with the few apps that I have on my computer. My Ipod keeps restarting itself and will not let me transfer anything to my computer.

    Hello Lori,
    Does your iPod appear in iTunes?  Do you have it set up to sync music from under the iPod's music tab?  Perhaps this support article can be of assistance.

  • Ipod keep restarting itselt. HELP!

    my ipod keep restarting starting after a few second. i try resetting and re install the software. i don't know what's wrong with it. is it defected? i just got this two days ago. i have latest version of ipod color 60GB pc+mac.

    reset isn't doing anything
    I guess it could be the firewire but i kind of ruled it out because the ipod only repeatedly restarts when its connected to the firewire. Thanks!

  • My Ipod keeps restarting and showing the Apple Logo over and over....

    PLEASE HELP ME!!!! My Ipod keeps restarting, or turning off, I'm not sure which, but when it does that then it shows the Apple Logo, it will go to the main screen for maybe 1 second, but then it does this cycle over again. It has been doing this for a while now. It is also unresponsive, I and tried the R things but they didn't work either. I have tried plugging it up and it hasnt helped, I have no idea what to do. Oh and I havn't dropped it or anything, I have taken very good care of it. The only thing I can think of that ould be wrong with it is that my Dad had it plugged into his car radio, he says it started doing this action while it was plugged up to that, but I have no proof of that. He also plugged it into his computer, which has none of the Itunes software on it, to try to download my songs onto his computer, he says all the songs copied to his computer just fine. I plugged the Ipod into my Ihome and it froze up, when it unfroze I saw that I had all of my songs, but then it started to Turn off and show the Apple Logo. If you have any suggestions please contact me!!!!

    Genug geweint -
    nach 3 Wochen funktioniert es wieder-I fixed it, after 3 weeks
    leider kann ich nicht sagen, an was es liegt/
    sorry, but I am not able to tell you what the problem was
    Da es jetzt geht, ohne dass ich an Vista etwas geändert hätte, vermute ich, dass eines der Apple Programme des Fehler verursacht.
    I did not change anything with Vista but it works now. Though I think the failure occured because of one of the Apple products.
    Schritt für Schritt / step by step
    1. iPod auswerfen / diconnect your iPod
    2. holen Sie sich alle wichtigen Windowsupdates/
    update your windows
    3. holen Sie sich iTunes noch einmal aber installieren Sie es nicht/
    download iTunes again, but don't install it.
    4. deinstalliere alle Appleprogramme
    (ich nutze nur die 6 Apple Programme, die zwangsweise mit iTunes installiert werden, ob es Sinn macht auch Safari zu löschen kann ich nicht sagen,weil ich es nicht nutze,aber vielleicht sollte man alles rausschmeißen)
    deinstall all Apple-software
    (I use only the software wich comes together with iTunes. I don't use safari. You might deinstall it as well, if you use it on a PC)
    5. Verbinden Sie den iPod mit dem PC
    Ohne iTunes hörte der "Kampf" zwischen Windows und iTunes auf (logo!).
    Solange der iPod davor verbunden war gab es Fehlermeldungen sowohl von iTunes als auch von Windows und der iPod flog bei beiden Systemen raus. Jetzt ließ Windows den iPod in der Liste der angeschlossenen Geräte. Ich habe ihn neu formatiert und dann ausgeworfen.
    Connect your iPod.
    Without iTunes the struggle between windows and iTunes was over.
    As long as iTunes was installed and a iPod was connected I got a notice of a failure from iTunes and windows. both of them disconnected the iPod. Now windows kept the iPod an I was able to format it, then I disconnected it.
    6. Da ich keine Zeit mehr hatte habe ich den Computer heruntergefahren und erst mehrere Stunden später wieder angemacht. (ob das spätere Hochfahren von Bedeutung ist werde ich wohl nie erfahren, ich erwähne es nur, um möglichst keinen Schritt auszulassen)
    I drove down the computer and turned it on again after a few hours. (Is it necessary to wait a few hours? I don't know. I mention it only)
    7. Installieren Sie iTunes / install iTunes
    8. starten Sie iTunes / start iTunes
    9. verbinden Sie den iPod mit dem Computer / connect your iPod with your PC
    Bei mir haben die Fehlermeldungen aufgehört und ich konnte das "kaputte" Gerät wieder mit Musik, Filmen und Hörbüchern füttern.
    Ich hoffe es klappt auch bei Ihnen.
    In my case there were no further messages of a failure. I got music, movies and audiobooks on my daughters iPod.
    Interessieren würde mich schon, warum ein System plötzlich spinnt, obwohl ich "außer" updates nichts verändert hatte.
    Why happened it???

  • My ipod keeps restarting, what is wrong with it?

    my ipod keeps restarting and deleting music, what is wrong with it?

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. 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 settings/new iPod
    if still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • E7-00 keeps restarting, when network coverage is l...

    After upgrade to Belle refresh, my Nokia E7-00 keeps restarting when network coverage is very low, or gone.
    I think, that this is an issue related to the phone's network connection, because the problem of the phone restarting is non-existing, when the phone is in offline-mode, and the problem is non-existing, when network connection is good.
    The problem did not exists before upgrading to Belle-refresh.
    Anyone experienced this, or any ideas to solve the problem´?
    Tanks in advance.

  • My Cube keeps restarting when I do a shutdown

    hello all.
    My cube keeps restarting when I choose "shutdown".
    The computer shuts down, but then restarts after about 2 seconds.
    The good thing: this compter runs as a CVS server, so it is never really down.
    But, I do need to shut it down once in a while.
    Any help would be great.
    Best regards - dustin

    Hi,
    The usual suspect when that happens is the gasket under the Power Button. Read about possible fixes here:

  • My iPod keeps restarting itself when I choose a song! Whats going on?!

    My iPod Classic 5th generation 30GB keeps restarting itself when I choose a song! I recently restored it (which helped with another problem), and I put all of my songs back onto it, but then when I went to go play a song, it just restarted itself! So I tried again, and it just did it again. No matter what song I choose, it will restart itself. So I went onto the support site and it told me to try toggling the hold switch a few times and then hold the menu and center buttons together to restart it. I did this and I thought it was going to work (I got it to play 3 songs!!), but then again...it restarts itself. I have to repeat this everytime I want to listen to a song, and even then it's not guaranteed to work. Needless to say, I'm getting a little frustrated! Any solutions?! PLEASE HELP!!! I need my music  

    See Corrupt iPod classic.
    If the device's database is stored somewhere that cannot be reliably read back then it appears as an empty device.
