Have you tried restoring the iPod then reloading all your genuine music?
How to restore the iPod to factory settings.
The iPod has a hard drive just like a computer, so in theory it's possible to store anything on there (including a virus). Restoring it would return it to it's factory condition.

  • Skipping entire album when using "album shuffle mode"

    Hello everybody !
    I like the feature that I call "album shuffle mode", the one that plays randomly all albums. I was wondering if it is possible to skip an entire album to play the next one.
    To be precise I don't want the album to be removed from music played in random mode, I just want to be able to skip it if it is not the thing I wanted to listen to.
    Sometimes I'm getting Techno just after listening to Vivaldi
    I would be happy to say "No no iPod ... you didn't choose the good album, try another one"
    Thanks

    Short of marking the albums you don't want to play in the shuffle mode in iTunes (which I believe you are saying you don't want to happen) then there really isn't a way to skip a whole album. I'm a little confused on what you are calling ranodom mode and what you are calling album shuffle mode. When you say random mode, are you referring to when a specific playlist is played in shuffle mode or are you referring to when every song on your ipod is being shuffled? My original answer above was assuming you meant when all songs on the ipod is being played.

  • Help me!! My iPod keeps skipping songs!!!

    Everytime I want to listen to a song that I put on my iPod mini, then it keeps skipping to one specific song that I don't want to listen to. When I add new songs, then it stops for a while, but then it starts doing it again! Its sooooo annoying!! Please help!!

    does it skip when you play the song in itunes?
    also, try resetting it.

  • My Ipod Keeps Skipping tracks!! HELP!

    my ipod keeps skippping songs when im playing one of my playlists!. it only plays any recently added songs and i have resest it but it doesnt do anything. Is it because i often charge it through the computer????...HELP!!....

    I, too, amd having the same problem! When I have my 20GB iPod in "Shuffle Songs" mode and I hit the "next song" button, it will sometimes skip the next song, or the next two songs, or even skip 5 songs before settling on one to play -- this is getting to be really frustrating!!!

  • My iPod keeps skipping music after I upgraded to IOS 7, I would tap a song and it wouldn't play all 308 of my songs, it would skip

    I can't play my music, it keeps skipping when I tap on it. I tried everything and nothing is working. Thank you so much in advance. I appreciate it!

    If your music was purchased in iTunes you can always redownload it for free... but without any backups.. there's no other way to get the music back.

  • Skipping entire albums in Album Shuffle

    How do you skip past entier albums while in album shuffle mode (skip to the next album rather than skip through all of the songs in the album). I thought center click + > was supposed to work but it doesn't...

    unfortunatly, there's no way to do so. you have to skip all the tracks of an album.
    the funny thing is, I was thinking the same thing today. I was using the "normal" (song) shuffle mode. I shuffle smart playlists that pick songs depending on their rating. But some days, I don't want to listen to a particular artist or album. So - since the iPod creates a temporary, static playlist if you play something - it would be nice to be able to delete an album or an entire artist from that playlist temporarily (so they still remain in the playlist you originally selected from your menu, but they disappear from the temporary playlist the iPod creates)
    would appreciate it, but before apple puts in stuff like that I would rather love a bug-fix-update

  • Ipod classic skipping Artist/Albums durring syncing in iTunes

    I had to do a system restore on a windows 7 and since then had some probs. w/ syncing my iPod Classic. I'm not getting all the Artist in my iTunes library. It seems to skip one every once in a while.It will record one artist skip one then record the next. doesn't make sense. And sometimes and Artists will have several albums and my iPod will grab 2, but not sync/download the 3rd. I have re-set the history. And set it to sync manuely. But I keep getting these results. Can anyone help?

    How is your iPod currently configured to sync music from your iTunes library? In other words, what options and configurations do you have in place from under the iPod's Summary and Music configuration panes in iTunes?

  • My Ipod keeps skipping songs

    While i was listening to my ipod (it was in my pocket) i accidentally knocked the buttons. Now when i play my songs it just skips every song. Only when i press pause it stops but when i press play it starts skipping really fast again.
    I think this is something to do with the settings. I tried using the "Reset All Settings" button but it still does it. Any help someone can give me on how to stop it skipping would be great. Thanks

    do these links offer any help?

  • Ipod keeps skipping songs

    When i want to play a certain song on my iPod, depending on the song, it'll skip it and go on to the next song. It seems to be skipping the songs i listen to the most. Is there a way I can fix this?

  • My ipod keeps skipping purchased tunes!!!!

    Can anyone help, my daughter has an ipod mini and its skipping all her bought itunes.Why? Shes driving me nuts!!

    I was havng the same problem except my iPod was getting locked up on the purchased tunes. I have found out a way around it although it is a little labor intensive.
    Itentify all the songs that won't play on the iPod.
    Copy them to a playlist and then burn them to a CD.
    Eject then CD and then put it back in and iTunes should recognize the songs to import. Import the songs back into your library. This should create 2 copies of each of the imported songs. Once imported right click on one songs and left click on Get Info and check to see if it is a protected AAC audio file. If so repeat the previous step on the other copy of the song. Once you find the file that is a non protected AAC audio file drag and drop that one on the iPod. This process fixed my problem. Hopefully fixes yours. By the way Apple will not help too much with this problem I think they thought I was making this up.

  • My iPod keeps skipping over songs?

    I know they're all the right format, because they were working recently. Not too long ago, I got a few new songs and went to put them on my iPod, as usual.
    When it finished syncing, I played the first song and it just skipped to the next song instantly, it kept skipping songs before it stopped on one and played it. When I hit the button to go to the next song, it did it again before stopping in another.
    I've completely wiped and restored it three times, but nothing changed. I've checked the files of the songs and they're all normal - like I said, they all worked until I did a recent sync to add new music. But the files of the new songs are the same as the others. Nothing is out of the ordinary.
    This was the best I could describe this, hope someone can understand and help me out.
    It's quite frustrating having an iPod that won't play music.

    Assuming a PC I would try:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

  • Ipod keeps shuffling the album covers of my music anytime i sync to my computer

    my ipod touch 3rd gen for some reason shuffles the album covers to my music whenever i sync it to my laptop. this has happened numerous times and i try fixing it by right clicking on the song or album and clicking "get info' which then shows the correct album cover in itunes, then clicking 'ok'. im tired of doing it every time when i get new music and then sync my ipod to my computer to find out none of the albums are correct on my ipod touch. my itunes on my computer has all the correct album covers for every song. why is it doing this and how can it be fixed???

    What are you trying to do exactly and how are you trying to do it?  You want to view artwork for tracks that on your iPod in iTunes? Why would you want to do that when you can just do that from your main iTunes Music library?

  • My ipod keeps skipping over the songs

    i tried to plug my ipod into a different computer and so i did then it got all messed up i cant listen to my music they skip songs the new ones i buy dont skip its just the old ones i put from my cds skip and some that i bought from the itunes store i dont want to resore it beacuase ive spent about 150 ta 200 dollars on songs and videos but how can i get this to stop or if i send it to apple how long will it take for me to get it back

    "i dont want to resore it beacuase ive spent about 150 ta 200 dollars on songs and videos"
    And you don't have a back up of these items?
    If not, you're in a spot of trouble here because either way (a restore or a return to Apple) will result in all the files on the iPod being erased.

  • Ipod keeps skipping? help

    Hiya
    i have a 30gb ipod.
    When playing a playlist it plays only part of the song before jumping onto the next one. some times its 10secs other times its near the end of the song and anywhere inbetween.
    can anyone help?

    I have the exact same issue with a 5th Gen iPoad with 30GB. I also posted it on this forum without any reply. There doesn't seem to be any contact with apple support. Question: how do problems get resolved? - How does apply support stay in touch with its customers? Does apple have any support?
