My ipod touch doesnt play music anymore.

Everything else works fine but when i click a song on my playlist it looks like its about to play it and then returns straight back to the playlist again. Does anybody know a way to fix this?

Does the music play in iTunes on the computer?
Try resetting the iPod:
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.

Ipod touch wont play music

Ipod touch was playing music and now I try to select a song to play and it does not play but blinks and takes me back to the playlist. It happens to every song I select. I have already tried to power it off and power back on it does not work still

Perhaps [iPod does not play content purchased from the iTunes Store|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1510] or [Troubleshooting songs that skip on iPod|http://support.apple.com/kb/TA26488?viewlocale=en_US] will help.
Good luck!

My Ipod touch doesnot play music via docking station of microset, but is charging

my Ipod touch doesnot play music via docking station of microset, but is charging. We have already restored the settings of the Ipod but it doesnor help. Please your advice.

Yes the manufacturer (Philips) says that the device (CD player with a docking station) should work with my IPod+iOS 6.2.1; we've updated the Ipod to iOS 6.2.1.
We've bought the device this week, so I assume the firmware is up-to-date...
My Ipod also does not work on another device with Apple-docking station, whereas other Ipods do connect with my new Philips device. I think it is pretty clear that my Ipod is the problem?
I think we'd best go to an Applo store?

IPod touch 3g plays music while locked

For some reason only when the remote headphones are plugged in it'll start playing as if it were haunted about 40 min or so later. It seems to happen if the iPod was playing music and is paused and then locked. I've done my research and it seems this is common and even if I restore or get a refurb it'll still happen. I just want to know if apple is aware of this and if it plans to be fixed?

If the problem isn't the headphones or earbuds, then by elimination the problem has to be the mini output of the iPod Touch - which is known for having problems. If you go to your Apple Store, the Genius Bar will able to take a magnifier and document what problem there is with your iTouch mini output.
If Apple repairs your Touch, the price is likely to run over $170; iPod Juice, which isn't affiliated with Apple, does the same job for considerably less. Or, you could sell it on eBay, stipulating the specific issue to the potential buyer.

My ipod touch stopped playing music in the middle of a song and now stops playing music. It says that it's playing a song but i don't hear anything. I've tried turning it off and on and restoring it's settings.

So like the title (which i thought was suppose to be a question to tech support) suggests, my ipod touch has stopped playing any audio sound. I've turned it off and on and restored it to it's default settings and still nothing. If it helps, it stopped playing music a few minutes after i accidently had some water on it.

- First place the iPod in a sealed container/bag of rice for a couple of days. Change the rice daily. Do not turn on or charge before it is dry.
- The try the standard fixes, reset and restore, including restoring to factory defaults/new iPod.
- Try both headphones and speaker.
- If no usccessful then the water caused permenent damage to the iPod and service is required.

Ipod touch wont play music and youtube

i have a second generation ipod touch. I cant watch youtube videos, movies, and play music. It is updated and i restored it. I redownloaded all my data. After that it still didnt work. Also it shutdowns completely by it selves. It freezes up sometimes. Could it be a virus or could be since i dropped it a few times. All the apps, mail, safari, and everything else works fine.
Please help:(
Thank you

If the problem persists after a restore to factory defaults/new iPod then it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPod touch stop playing music after two songs!!

Hello,
I hope you can help me, because my problem is very frustrating. I am listening to my iPod touch, in my car through the car speakers, or through the earbuds. Once a song stops playing and the next song after it starts playing, the second song gets about 20-30 seconds into it, and then it stops. Completely stops, and I look at it and I am back at the home screen. This does not happen every-time, but I still don't know why it does this.
I also have another problem of the same type, but this has to do with the videos in YouTube. I watch a YouTube video almost all the way through, but then at the end, maybe 1 minute left or so, it stops, and goes back to the home screen.
Also, when I am on the internet, Safari, and I am listening to music while loading a page, the music stops quickly after the page starts to load and then everything gets put back to the home screen.
I know thats a lot to read, and maybe reply to, I'm sorry, but those are all my problems.
Thank you so much for your time.
-Sean

I have the exact same problem as originally reported. The song stops in the middle and then proceeds to the next song. One time I also saw the failure where I was returned to the main screen. More details follow.
My issue is 100% repeatable when it happens. As an example, I have a song I purchased on iTunes and downloaded last night. The song is 3:53 long and when I play it on my iPod Touch, while watching the "progress" bar, it consistently stops when the song reaches exactly 1 minute played. The progress bar continues silently for a few more seconds before then proceeding to the next song. This happens 100% consistently. However, if I manualy drag the progress indicator past the 1 minute mark while playing this song, the song will then play successfully until the end. I have the latest version, 1.1.2, on my iPod Touch.

Ipod wont even play music anymore....please help

My ipod doesn't even play music normally anymore. Whenever i play music it just freezes and takes about 5 minutes to load.. and im really sick of it. I only have about 1,300 songs in the Ipod. I have 5th generation 30 GB Ipod and use the latest Itunes. I googled around and some people also have the same problem. They say its from artwork. I tried disabling artwork but still didn't disable any artworks. What should I do?
Thanks for the help.

My ipod touch doesnt have ios5 anymore?

so my ipod touch froze & had to restore, now i cant DL apps that i had that required ios5 & 4.3 or higher...my ipod touch wont update higher than 4.2....why is that?

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1. You must have jailbroken it before.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

My iPod touch cannot play music on apps, videos or music, but it plays the click sound everytime you tap a letter.
