IPod touch music does not start songs from the beginning

the songs on an ipod touch does not start from the beginning how do you fix this

In your iTunes Library, check the songs to see if they are set to Remember playback position. If they are, turn that off and Sync the iPod with iTunes for these new changes to take effect.
Highlight a song, right-click/Get Info/Options>Remember playback position:

When i restart my ipod touch it does not bring me to the homescreen?

I was updating my iPod Touch 4g to iOS 6, then when it was updating, the loading bar stopped. it never continued. so i restarted it, by pressing the sleep/wake button and the homescreen button for some seconds. then the apple logo appeared and i let go. then the apple logo disappeared, then the screen became light blue, i did it again, it became dark blue, and i did it again, it became white. what's happening?

You interrupted the update which corrupted the operating system of your iPod. It is normal for the update to takea long time. There have been people saying it took 2 hours to update. It is normal for the progress bar to sit at 0 for a while before it starts moving. The only way to recover your iPod since the operating system is corrupted is to do a DFU restore.
Instructions on putting iPod into DFU Mode: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
Once the iPod is in DFU mode, iTunes will say that the iPod needs to be restored. This is normal. Select restore on the Summary page for your iPod in iTunes.

Did you remove and reinstall all the Apple software by:

Run this to see if it helps determine the cause

Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

IPod Touch (4) does not automatically fetch email

My iPod Touch 4 does not fetch email unless I force it to. Push is off and my mail accounts are all working (MobileMe & Gmail).
I've tried everything and the device just sits there, even though it is set to fetch new emails every 15 minutes.
Any idea why? Also, does auto-lock interfere with fetch?
Cheers!

I believe you need to have "Push" turned on. Try that and see what happens

You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

Are you positive these podcasts are configured to sync to your iPod Touch? Have you double checked the configuration for podcasts from under the iPod's Podcasts configuration tab in iTunes?
To access this tab, plug your iPod in and 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 tab. Locate the Podcasts tab along the top and select it. Here you can choose how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.

Replacement Needed. This iphone is not able to complete the activation process and needs to be replaced. Please visit your nearest apple store or authorized service center.

Probably will never ever think of buying a locked phone from AT&T cause its one of the worst system integrations ever that these companies could think of.
The entire problem started when I put in a request with at&t to unlock my iphone 4s (ios7) which did get approved. I performed the entire instructions they asked me to do, which is to backup and restore. After doing those instructions my iphone gave me an error message below
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
The SIM card that you currently installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.
Basically saying that at&t hasn't still unlocked the iphone which a really helpful apple executive was able to confirm. I initiated another unlock process from at&t in order to unlock the iphone, just to be sure that its not something wrong from my end. The nice at&t lady stayed on chat with me to unlock the iphone step my step while I was calling the apple tech too. And the apple tech confirmed again that the iphone is locked to at&t.
Now, just a few minutes ago I tried another restore to see if any progress is being made and to my surprise I got an error message saying
Replacement Needed. This iphone is not able to complete the activation process and needs to be replaced. Please visit your nearest apple store or authorized service center.
I feel like I am just going around these two different "money hogger" companies which set certain rules and regulations to screw a regular phone buyer. I purchased this iphone in USA and trying to unlock in India, is it really this hard to simply unlock a device.
For now I am going to try to call a apple office in india (apprently we don't have very many out here) and see if they can help me. But any other assistance regarding unlocking an iphone 4s would be helpful. I have however, tried checking IMEI.info, called up apple, talked to at&t (which always say go talk to apple) I do have a case number from apple as well in case an apple executive reads this discussion forum (case number: 566383594)
Thanks

You got a confirmation from AT&T that it was authorized. Is this correct? - Yes i did get an email authorization on the 21st.
Then you connected the phone to a computer with the latest version of iTunes installed. You clicked on the phone's name in iTunes, then clicked "Backup Now". - Yes
When that finished you clicked "Restore iPhone" (NOT "Restore Backup") - Yes
Are you with me so far? - Yes.
And @ Varjak is right that after the 3rd restore I get the replacement error.
Plus I have NEVER jailbroken the iPhone. To give you another update, I spoke to a really nice apple tech in India who was atleast able to get me out of the replacement error by doing a recovery mode option. However, the lastest restore still gives me the same error
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.

This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier.
