My ipod touch 5g goes crazy when i plug it up and i use the apple cord that it can with

When I plug my ipod touch 5g up to charge and I get on there to play games but when I do, it goes crazy! The screen wont work and I keep on tapping at it and then the screen finally works but only for about 2 mins.

Try a different cable and a different charging source.
Other users have reported the same but never posted back when how it was resolved.

  • I have a number of audiobooks purchased through iTunes on my iPod touch.  Is there a way to move or download them to the Cloud so that I can access them on other devices?

    I have a number of audiobooks purchased through iTunes on my iPod touch.  Is there a way to move or download them to the Cloud so that I can access them on other devices?

    Thanks - I didn't realize that.  I'm also embarrassed to admit that I don't know how to transfer the audio files from my iPod to the iTunes library on my computer.  When I select a book from the list on the iPod, the only option I see with the right-facing arrow symbol is "Show in iTunes Store ".  I back the iPod up to this computer so I guess those files must be on it somewhere, but all I can recognize in the iTunes folder under " Music"  are the music files found in the "iTunes Music" folder. (There are also a ton of files named "iTunes Temp (some #).) The Books list on the computer shows some but not all of the audiobooks -  I purchased the rest on a different computer that is now unfortunately dead. I'm guessing now that those didn't transfer over when the new computer was populated from the old one, so the iPod may be the only place where those audiobooks now reside.  I hope that made some sense- any additional advice would be appreciated.

  • Can I download iTunes to a gateway laptop and pull up my library from it a as well? My ipod nano 7thgeneration is staying "do not disconnect" when I plug it into the USB in my truck. I am using the USB cord that it came with.

    i had my iPod nano plugged into the USB in my truck about a week ago and it worked. All I had to do was press the AUX button. I went to use it yesterday in my truck and the iPod says do not disconnect while my truck says audio player not found. I called apple support and he said my iPod needs to be restored, so I need to retransfer the music from my library onto my iPod again. Downfall, I no longer have access to an apple laptop because my brother lost the cord to his. Please help.

    " When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
    Correct.
    " How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer?  "
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

  • My touch screen goes crazy when rain drops fall on it

    When I operate my phone in rain my touchscreen responds to the rain drops. My touchscreen responds crazy when raindrops fall on it.

    There are other threads concerning this, for example:

  • My ipod touch is not responding when i plugged it  in even with a different cord and restarting my computer

    my ipod touch is not responding when i plugged it  in even with a different cord and restarting my computer and i am using my moms itunes that she has had for a long time and so i cant uninstall itunes.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 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.

    my ipod touch 4g 8 gigs is not turning on it wont get past the apple logo its not frozen because it turns the screen black and the apple logo please help me

    - Try a reset.
    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.
    - Then connect to your computer and try to restore.
    - See if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - If the logo still show all the time, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the above again.

  • I have an IPOD touch 4th generation. When I try to go and buy apps from Itunes and App store it askes for ssecurity codes because it is the 1st time using it. can not remember. How do I reset it or find them?

    I have an IPOD touch 4th generation. When I try to buy apps from apps store and Itunes it says this is the 1st time doing it so wants me to answer security questions. Granddaughter put 2 in the ipod but can't remember them. how do i either change them so I know what they are or just take them out again?

    Strange; yesterday there was a link via which you could get a reset email sent, but today that link is missing. So if you've forgotten your answers, there is no way around the problem without involving Apple. Go here:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • My iPod touch playlists only show up on iTunes under devices and not on the iTouch itself.  On iTunes, I cannot play my songs from the iTouch on iTunes.  Any ideas?

    Suddenly in the last 10 days, my iPod Touch playlists don't show up on the iPod unless plugged into iTunes and only under the device section of iTunes. When I try to play a song on my iPod a different song from the library comes up and plays.  Lastly, when I try to play the songs in the iPod library on iTunes when plugged into the computer, an exclamation mark appears to the left of the song title and will not play.  Any ideas?

    Put the device in DFU mode: http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034

  • Can't use my Ipod touch.. going crazy!! Please help!

    Hey,
    I was given an Ipod touch for Christmas but I cannot get it to work. (it is second hand but all date was removed.)
    On the Ipod touch screen is a picture of the USB cable and the Itunes symble.
    I have conected the ipod to the comuter via the USB cable but Itunes always says:
    "This Ipod cannot be used as the required software is not installed. Run the itunes installer to remove itunes, then install itunes again."
    I have have done this several times now and the message keeps popping up. I cannot find any help for this on the apple website.
    It is driving me quite mad!!
    *Any help would be very gratefully recieved!! Thanks.*

    For some reason the Apple Mobile Device Manager isn't working or isn't recognized.
    First go into Add/Remove and make sure it was installed, security software can just whack the oddest stuff.
    Then read through this : file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Pamela/My%20Documents/iPod%20touch%20not%2 0recognized%20by%20iTunes.htm
    and apply the section on restarting mobile services.

  • Why does my ipod touch 4g do this when i plug my headphones in? (not your usual headphone question)

    Can anybody help me out? I bough my Ipod Touch on December 26th at about 11 am. I took it home registered it all all of that stuff, downloaded some apps and put music onto it. I then proceeded to use my headphones with my ipod and everything worked fine. Then at about 9:30 pm i went to listen to my music once again and when i plugged in my headphones the weirdest thing happens. The screen changes to the black screen with the apple logo on it (like the one after you restart your ipod) but it also has a little (i would call it) buffering symbol (the circle made up of 12 individual lines) located at the bottom of the apple (Apple logo). That screen stays up for 5 seconds and then switches to my lock screen which stays up for only 1 second and then the cycle begins again. It never ends! I don't understand!!! I didn't even have it up and operating for 12 hours!! I am looking to see if anybody has any ideas about what to try. I have tried doing all of the below:
    - switching off the password lock
    -switching the lock to 'never'
    -restarting my ipod
    -turning it off and then plugging in my headphones then turing the ipod back on
    -started playing a song over the speaker and then plugged in the headphones
    -turned off all applicaitons etc.

    *** The headphones still work I can hear an alert sound through them as the screens change, and i have tried a multitued of different headphones with my ipod***
    i am in the middle of downloading the latest version of itunes/software for my ipod because i am also trying to get imessages-- i was hoping that that would work to get it on there- and now i am hoping it works for my headphone problem (do you think it will) .
    *** as soon as i unplug my headphones the ipod goes back to the lock screen, i unlock it, and it works normally (even if i dont have the lock screen/password turned on)
    please please please please help This is my first ipod touch and i have no idea how to solve this problem
    **ps if you can tell me how to get imessages that would be awesome too

    Not an expert, but plug it into your computer.  If it comes up hit sync.  Unplug it and see if it works, if not, plug in again and hit reset (I don't have the screen in front of me, but I know you get a main screen on iTunes you get an opption to upgrade or reset.)  When you reset it's kind of like nuking and paving.  It will erase your internal memory completely and reinstall everything on it.  Make sure you have updated your computer using software update first.  It takes a while, but that should fix it.

  • My iTunes keeps clearing all of the music of my iPod Touch 4th Generation randomly when I plug it in, then starts syncing it back up. Why?

    So my iPod Touch has been cleared twice now and I'm beginning to become annoyed. I plug it in and iTunes recognizes it, and then goes through the steps of syncing. Once it gets to steps 5 or 6 it gets stuck. It'll just keep spinning or cycling through over and over again. It doesn't freeze up, just gets stuck. Now if I hit cancel it doesn't clear off my iPod and it seems to complete the sync, but if I leave it or if I click the drpdown arrow and see what's being synced into the playlist; Then the iPod clears off all my music and I have to sync all 4550 tracks back onto my iPod.

    and i went through all the steps but i dont have any disk that step 3 asks for i bought it off of a friend and ive tried it on 2 computers alredy and the same message appears... on my other ipod touch 2g it works fine so i dont think its the usb port any ideas?

  • HT5622 I have changed my appleID and password through my laptop.  I have then changed it on my iPod Touch in settings. When I try to update my apps on the ipod touch it keeps throwing up the old appleID.  How can I get the iPod Touch to use the new ID?

    I have changed my appleID and password through my laptop. I have then changed them in my iPod touch settings in "iTunes & App stores" When I try to update my apps it fails because it wishes to continue to use the previous ID.  What do I have to do to make it accept the new ID?

    Also
    If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • My ipod touch keeps going from low battery to start up and it just repeats

    Okay i have a 3rd generation ipod touch and it keeps going from low battery charge page to a apple logo what do i do here?

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be 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 defaults/new iPod
    You may have a hardware problem like a dead battery.
