It depends on how your iPod is set up to sync music from your iTunes library whether that be automatically or manually.  If it's automatically, simply remove the tick mark next to "Sync Music" from under the iPod's music configuration pane in iTunes.
To access this pane, plug your iPod in and when it appears in iTunes, click on its name from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes.  This will bring you to the iPod's Summary pane.  Now locate the Music pane along the top.  Remove the tick mark next to Sync Music and hit Apply.  This will remove all content from the iPod.  When it has finished, re-select the Sync Music option and again hit Apply to re-sync all your music back over to your iPod from iTunes.

  • Sometimes when listening to music or a podcast, it will stop and start in rapid fire.  I have a 4th gen iPod Touch.

    Sometimes when listening to music or a podcast, it will stop and start in rapid fire.  I have a 4th gen iPod Touch.  A Genius suggested something went wrong during the transfer from my MBP to my iPod, but I tried resyncing it, and it seems to happen haphazardly.  Even if a podcast plays oddly one time, it might play perfect the next - so it can't have been the sync that went bad. 

    - First try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next restore from backup

  • When I plug my headphones into my Ipod touch and listen to music, the volume automatically reduces slowly so I cant hear anything.

    When i plug my headphones into my Ipod touch and listen to music, the volume automatically reduces slowly so I can't hear anything. Please help.

    Thank you. That is good information.
    Does this mean that there is nothing I can do about the delay? When I think of a delay, I think of maybe 10 seconds. I am having to wait for a minute or more for my audio to switch. While I wait, I have no audio and any audio program hangs. Is there a setting I can change? It seems rather ridiculous that I have to wait so long just to switch from internal speakers to headphones.
    It is like this on other Mac machines? Or it is just my iMac? I hate to compare Mac to Windows, but on Windows or Linux computers the switch is instantaneous.

  • 5G iPod resets while listening to playlists?

    Any help would be appreciated on this. At home, I recently upgraded to iTunes 7. I am also current with my iPod upgrades.
    Since then, my 5G iPod (30GB) has started resetting itself seemingly randomly while I am listening to music - the song stops and the black screen/silver apple show up, then it goes back to my top-level menu.
    None of my music is missing, and I haven't had any audio trouble. I am wondering, however, if having iTunes 7 at home and iTunes 6 at work (they won't let us download software upgrades) is causing some sort of system conflict.
    Any advice? Is this just simply a question of rebooting the thing?
    Thx.

    I have this same problem with a couple of podcasts: Democracy Now and le show.
    by any chance, are those podcasts mono mp3s? if so, it might be worth trying the workaround from this document:

  • When listening to music on ATV, it plays two songs from the playlist, then won't play any more.  You can see playlist and songs, but won't respond.  Any ideas?

    When listening to music on ATV, it will play two songs from the playlist, then no more.  You can see the playlist on songs, but it won't play.  Turned everything off, reset the network...nothing works.  Any ideas?  It used to play fine...for hours at a time.

    Hi.  Thanks for your reply.
    It is happening via "shuffle" in a playlist.  Always two different songs within the playlist.  You can see the next song on the screen that should, theoretically, be playing...but nothing happens.  Even when you push "play" on the remote, it doesn't receive the command. 
    I reset, then restored ATV.  Now, it doesn't limit itself to two songs, but does stop after a few.  The more trial and error I do, the more I believe the problem is with Homesharing in iTunes.  If I turn off Homeshare, then turn it back on, a couple more songs will play in the playlist.  I have shut down iTunes, restarted computer, completed updates, but nothing seems to change it.
    It used to play fine for hours on end, but has now found this glitch.

  • Lumia 920 crash when listening to music

    Hi,
    My Nokia Lumia 920, windows 8 mobile keeps crashing when I listen to music from "Nokia Music". I usually use nokia-provided headsets when listening to music. In recent times the crash has become more frequent. When listening to music, the handset just reboots without any notification.
    Is there a place I could look at the crash dump and submit it as an issue ?

    have you tried a soft reset? i'm not talking about what you think might or might not work, i'm talking about trying it. it doesn't wipe any data. if it still doesn't work, then you may need to perform a hard reset (Settings > About > Reset your phone), which will wipe everything, so please make a backup to PC and/or online storage of your data first.
    failing that, you will need to take your phone to your Nokia Care for inspection: http://nokia.com/support

  • Iphone 5s overheats when listening to music

    my iphon 5s overheats when listening to music sometimes after only 2 or 3 songs.
    i took it into the apple store they gave me a new phone after seeing there was 5 overheating notifications.
    now it happened again on my new phone. i heard something about disabeling syncing between icloud and safari. will this work?

    Welcome to the discussions,
    did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes up again? If still no change, a restore "as new iphone" would be the next step. In that case don't use your backup to get your data back, it may contain damaged files causing your problem.

  • For some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store.

    for some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store. my old iphone 4s audio jack was messed up but i just got a new one with my warranty , can anyone help me please.

    It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
    Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

  • I've just bought an ipod touch. I cannot get beyond the question asking me for a network name. I don't have a mobile telephone which I think this question is referring to. All I want from an ipod is to listen to music. What should I do?

    You have to activate a new iPod by either setting it up via wifi network that has an internet connection on to connect to a computer that has iTunes and an internet connection.
    You can go to an Apple store or or to a friend's house if necessary

  • Updated to 4.4 and now my Bluetooth 'studders' when listening to music and a phone call. Yes I have reset the phone and removed the battery.

    I just updated my Note 3 to 4.4.2. Since then when I listen to music or make a call on my Bluetooth my music and calls 'studders' and has some type of 'drop-outs' during the music and calls. This was not the case prior to the update.
    Yes, I have power down the phone. Yes, I have removed the battery and restarted the phone. My Bluetooth headset is an LG 730. I tried listening to music on my other Bluetooth devices and they also 'studders' and has drop-outs during calls and music. I connected with a wired headset and the 'studdering' disappeared.
    Is there a way to revert back to the previous 4.3 version of Android. I use my phone extensively for business and drive with it. The law for my state requires 'hands free' usage of my phone.

    Unfortunately, I was forced to do a factory Reset. This wiped the device to a new state.
    Afterwards all Blue-tooth, wi-fi and calls operated fine.
    I would advise that you notify your customers that they would most likely have to do a Factory Reset once they update their device.
    All contacts, pictures, data and applications were either lost or had to be reinstalled.
