My iPod keeps shutting down and restarting and it keeps on freezing randomly. what do I do?

Hi,
My iPod Touch 4g keeps shutting down randomly, it also keeps restarting randomly and freezing randomly. Even whilst i'm listening to music, it'll just stop and nothing I do can sort it out except for restarting it by pressing the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button together. Can you guys help?

It depends upon your situation. Apple with exchange the iPod for this price:

  • IPod Touch Shuts down and Wifi stops working

    I am having a huge pain in the butt issue. I loved the iPod touch for the first year I had it, after which I had a problem, but that was fine. I was in warranty and got a new one. A year later now, I am having another issue. It seems like the things are disposable! Not too impressed with Apple.
    My iPod will shut down on its own every couple of days completely on its own, which I have heard is a common problem, but when I turn it back on, the date is set to December 31, 1969 (I believe this is the beginning of the Unix Calendar?), but everything else appears to be working. When I launch any apps that require wireless, they appear to work fine, but nothing loads. i.e. Safari loads the bar part way, email continually loads, but nothing happens, etc. The only way to get it back to normal is to go into iTunes and do a restore from a backup. I would like to go to factory defaults and start from scratch, but I have a tonne of data on there that I would need some way of getting off safely. I should also mention that when the iPod shuts down, the only way to restart it is to plug it in.
    I can't seem to find anyone else who has had this problem. I would appreciate any help!
    Thanks,
    A

    Thanks for the tip so far Lucas, but i am stuck at the "Connect to iTunes" screen of the recovery process. when i try to restore i was prompted that "The Ipod Software Update server could not be contacted". I am currently at work so i am wondering if i am being blocked from contacting the server because of the firewall and other network security measures. But again thanks at least i have some level of hope.

  • My iPhone 4 shut down and won't turn on again.What should i do?

    My iPhone 4 shut down and won't turn on again. I tried charging it and do it again...When i charge it , it opens the " Connect to iTunes" , when i switch to the computer to connect it , it doesn't work... It starts to the apple screen , and then just shuts down again. I tried holding the home and sleep/wake button at the same time..I tried everything. What should i do?

    Your iPhone is going back and forth between recovery mode and powering on which is really strange.
    Have you tried a hardware reset while its connected to your computer? This will force it back into recovery mode so that you can restore it. If restoring and setting up as new doesn't help, go ahead and take it to an Apple Store for a replacement

  • Ipod 4g shut down and will not turn on or charge

    Greetings, yesterday my ipod nano 4g played some music and shut itself off after being in my vehicle during the day although not in direct sunlight. I had thought that it ran out of charge and took it home and hooked it up to my computer as I normally do to recharge it and update it although it still would not turnon or activate itself and show the "do not disconnect" sign on the screen. What could cause this? Is there a way to reset my ipod or is it toast? Please help.

    I plugged in the Ipod 3 days later and it connected ok and is charging. Problem solved. Thanks.

  • Ipod Touch shuts down and wont power up

    I have a 1st generation 16GB Ipod Touch, after cleaning the screen this morning i notice the display begins to fade and then it powered down. When I try to power it back on nothing happens. I tried a hard reset (holding the sleep/power buttonn down for 30 seconds) but nothing happened. What i do notice though is that when i connect the USB cable to it the apple appears in the middle as if it is powering up but after a few seconds the display fades again then it powers back off. Also its not being recognized in itunes.
    ANY HELP PLEASE and THANK YOU!!!
    I know its kinda old but it does what i want it to, connect to the internet, play musics and videos

    My internet will crash randomly as will my computer.
    I am not downloading any viruses, my wifi works perfectly fine for all my other devices and I have reported the problem many times.
    Is there anything I can do or should I just go to the Apple store?

  • When I try to calibrate my iPod nano after a run it just shuts down and restarts. Whats happening?

    After I run (iin basic mode) I try to calibrate. (I've done this a few times before).
    Lately when I do/try this the iPod just shut down and restarts.
    I've tried restoring the iPod in iTunes to no help.
    It's a 6th generation nano coupled to a nike sensor.
    Any help would be much apreciated.

    As a test to determine if it is nike sensor only issue run once without the sensor. Use the inbuilt accelerometer to complete a run and calibrate it.

    - 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.

  • I cannot open iphoto- the message I am getting says Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Comma

    i cannot open iphoto- the message I am getting says Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command-
    I tries and it doesnt work!!

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Logger Service keeps shutting down and restarting

    Hello,
    I have upgraded my lab UCCE call center to v9.0
    I have a simplexed environment
    Ever since, the logger service keeps shutting down and restarting.
    Recently, the node manager issued an error message and shut down the server
    I tried to check some logs but I point out the problem, there are errors in different processes.
    Attached are the logs.

    Hi,
    if the NM tries to reload the server, it indicates a Problem (capital inteded).
    Indeed, there's something interesting going on:
    08:29:11:822 la-rpl Trace: Starting Recovery Key for Admin table is 6717118506000.0

    The short version: configuration data is corrupt.
    The longer version: the above message in red informs about the result of a sanity check. Each configuration change creates a new row in one of the tables holding the config info, and each row contains a RecoveryKey which is usually a large number incremented by the insertion. The error message says the largest key (= last key) contains a value that is lower than the first key. Naturally, this is something to consider for a lonely philosopher, but the rigid world of Cisco ICM does not allow metaphysical phenomena. Lower numbers are supposed to be lower than higher numbers.
    This, of course, raises an exception and the Logger service restarts. If there are too many restarts, the Node Manager kicks in and restarts the machine - this is just a mechanism that prevents a larger extent of data corruption.
    Now, if there's an other side Logger - fine, as the error message suggests, you can initiate manual replication (provided the other Logger database contains valid information).
    Unfortunately, as you have written, this is a side A only environment. This may mean:
    - accepting the situation, stopping ICM, throwing out the logger database, recreating it and reinstalling the Logger service,
    - poking around in various tables to check what may be saved - this may mean the beginning of an adventure.
