The safari app on my Ipod touch won't open.

The safari app on my Ipod Touch won't open. When i open the application it kicks me back to the Home Screen. It's only the Safari app that does that but I need it. I can't delete it and reinstall it and I don't know how to sync the app. Can anyone help me?!

Still dosen't work
but thank you for trying to help me out.
Sorry I ask alot of questions...
Is there a way to save my scores (of my games) before i restore my ipod?
And my apps..?

The Music app on my ipod touch will not open?

The Music app on my ipod touch will not open, it loads but the sceen is always blank and then closes the music app and goes back to my list of apps.. what do i do? any ideas?

I have the same problem since a couple days ago, I will try to refrain from swearing or slagging on Apple, got a few questions for you, Gerbrandt, or anyone else who's had this problem and worked around it by means of a 3rd party app:
1-Since using panamp have you used your ipod in any docks successfully? (ex: I have a JVC car deck, a Klipsch dock and the Yamaha dock for my home theatre, all will be worthless if I can't resurrect my iPod as a music player)
2-Has using panamp done anything to help the original Apple music app to work or has it stayed dead?
3-Do you have any smart playlists? Like others with the 64GB model I have many many songs (that's the WHOLE point of the large capacity iPod, isn't it?) and I found that the more smart playlists I had the worse the apple music app behaved back when it was still working.
I'll check out panamp tonight, hopefully that will stop me from curb-stomping my iPod.
Anyone know whether an Apple "genius" has access to any sort of debugging facilities that would make it worth visiting the store for help on this matter? (ex: if they have root access to check for corrupt song database, or debug logs of some sort, or can do any direct manipulation of commands over the dock connector).
It sure would be nice to know why this happens, I have about 14,000 songs locked in iTunes now and many hours of time invested in ripping my CD collection but I don't want to buy a replacement iPod only to have this happen to it too. It's annoying enough the 4 hours it takes to resynch after a system restore (which in the end did nothing to resolve the original issue).

My 4th Gen iPod Touch won't open up the apps I've downloaded. I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the app and it seems to only be a temporary fix. The reset and reboot didn't work either. Help would be appreciated.

In more specific terms. The apps that came on the iPod like the weather and maps and whatnot have been working flawlessly. It's just when I download an app and then disconnect from wifi it's almost like I'm on a timer until the app stops working. It acts like it wants to open, the screen flashes black then resets to the home pages. I've tried all of the basic fixes, rebooting, reseting, uninstalling then reinstalling. But like in my...long...question, the reinstalling option only seems to be a temporary fix. I just recently downloaded the 5.1.1 udate (I think that's what it was) does that have anything to do with it, or am I just derpy when it comes to iPods?

Try the other suggestions here:

Then try a restore.

Try a hard reset and go from there.

Suddenly my iPod touch can not open any app.. at all

Hi. All off a sudden, my iPod touch won't open any downloaded apps from iTunes store. It was functioning normally, but without any clear reason (i didn't do anything to my iPod) suddenly no apps will open. When I click an icon, the menu zooms out and the app opens, but only for one second or so. Then suddenly it returns to the menu, and the menu did not animate this time. I tried holding the menu button, not working. Holding menu + power, problem not fixed. Syncing with iTunes, still same problem. I don't want to delete my apps by erasing iPod because there is important data in "WritePad", a sort of notes app. What should I do?

Yes, I reset via the Ipod... then via Itunes, downloaded new Ipod software, deleted apps, then ALL apps, then downloaded the apps again, then dowloaded a different NEW app... Still NOTHING works! Why is this doing this in the FIRST place! I spent $400 for this, and now the apps work, and it's MY fault because I don't stand on one foot, hold the correct finger on my nose, point my left ear in the direction of the North Star and whistle the correct tune? Why doesn't this thing just RUN the APPS? (Sorry, but it's a little frustrating to spend hours poring over solutions to a problem, try them all, then ask if there IS a solution, and be asked if I've tried all the solutions I've already tried!) My LAST problem was not being able to get the email set up, calling up Apple support and listening while the support person did a search in these forums for answer (which I had already done!)

HT4606 i put the new ios 5. and now my ipod touch can't open my wifi or bluetooth

i put the new ios 5.... and now my ipod touch can't open my wifi or Bluetooth it is haper on gray like it no disposable

How are you trying to accomplish these two tasks?
The correct way is as follows:
Camera zoom: pinch with your fingers like you do when viewing pictures.
Camera button in lock screen: Double-tap on the home button while in lock screen
If you are already doing it that way and it doesn't work, then maybe someone else here has another idea.

My iPod touch will not open any videos or music or games what should I do

My iPod touch will not open any videos or music or games what should I do

- Do they open but quickly close?
- Have you tried a reset:
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.
- Have you tried downloading/installing a new app?

TS1702 all of my apps on my ipod touch dont respond or will close themselves after a short period of time. ive had my ipod touch for less than a year. what can i do to fix this problem?

all of the apps on my ipod touch dont respond, or will stop working after a short period of time. ive had my ipod for less than a year and this has been a reaccuring issue for a while. what can i do to fix this problem?

Have you tried a hard reset yet? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, try a restore from an earlier backup in iTunes.

And lastly, restore to factory defaults in necessary.

My 5th Generation IPod Touch keeps pausing, opening Siri, and crashing when I play music?

I won a brand new 64gb 5th gen iPod touch back in November, everything has been great with it until recently. Lately it has been glitching out whenever I try to play music. It seems to be only when the headphone are plugged in that it does it, but it happens daily and has become an inconvenience. It tends to pause, play, open Siri (ask her a question) sometimes speed up the song, and ultimately crash. Does anyone know of this and/or know how to fix it? I've tried a system restore with backing up info but nothing else. Thank you.

Hope your issue was fixed. With iOS 7 and now 7.0.4 the iPod touch fifth generation I have still crashes I have don't a soft restore, a complete restore from back up and also setup as new. Nothing worked. Saw the folks at the apple store on five different times. So they finally gave me a replacement. This has been going on since the new release. The only thing I have found is that it looses internet connectivity so I can put it in airplane mode. Close all apps. Then go back to wifi mode and some times this worked.
Your issues seem slightly different. But the irregularities began for me with issues with my music library on my iPod touch.
It's so frustrating to have such an expensive device functioning so poorly.

My ipod touch will not open apps

I tried to update my ipod touch 4g to IOS 5.0 and after a few minuets it started to run very slow then not opening my apps. but it will open the apps like calendar,notes,etc.any help?

You may want to try turning the IPOD off and then turning it on and see if that does anything

Ipod touch won't open apps?

I have an ipod touch, and whenever I try to open an app I've downloaded that's not preloaded into the ipod, it'll open up for about a second and then instantaneously flash back to the home screen. At first is was one app, then it was several, and then it becomes all of them. Sometimes they lose their picture too.
It's set to the newest version, there are no updates. I've checked. I've also checked if any of the apps require a new update or a newer generation ipod. Since I have the newest version and itunes won't install an app that requires a newer generation ipod, this can't be the problem. There are no problems with the battery.
I've tried reseting the ipod, no luck. I've tried restoring the ipod and putting everything back on (several times through a previously made backup, once from scratch): both of these work for about 2 days and then I have the same problem all over again. I refuse to restore and back up my ipod every few days.
(If this info helps you any, every time I plug it into the computer it doesn't recognize it as an existing ipod, it asks me to set it up as a new ipod and tries to sync it all over again. Even if I had not restored the ipod since last I plugged it in.)
I read through several forums on this and read the official troubleshoot on how to fix the problem, but none of the suggestions seem to work.
Does anyone know of anything else I should try, or do you think I should send it in and get it looked at?

If you still have the problem after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod you very likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
