My ipod touch goes to home screen and other things.

ok three things
1. when i try to listen to songs my ipod stops playing the music and goes back to the home page. i dont touch anything, it just does it.
2.my battery will be fully charged then i will push the sleep button or turn it off and when i turn it back on the battery is alomst gone.
3.how do i take songs off my ipod when it is on manual without take off all my songs then reloading them?
ohter info- i have an ipod touch, first model, 8GB.

Boy oh boy....I can relate to No. 1. My iTouch does the same thing. I am trying to watch a youtube video, and the screen hops back and forth from "yes/no for iTunes, and the main page...and I"m not doing a thing.

    Why does my iPod Touch have a white screen and how do I get rid of it?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod Touch Stuck on Apple Screen and iTunes won't recognize

    I was resetting my ipod touch to clean it off to give to my sister. I thought it was plugged in, but turns out it was not, so the battery died while it was resetting itself. Now it is stuck on the apple screen. I have tried everything to reboot it and get iTunes to recognize the device, but nothing has worked. I had my computer cleaned, so iTunes is brand new and has never been hooked up to this iPod Touch. I need help please!!

    TRy placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restoring. See:

  • My ipod touch has a white screen and it wont turn of

    I was playing a gamem and all of a sudden the screen turned white! it wont even turn of. I tryed to put it into Dfu mode and held the top button to it didnt work. so right now i left the ipod on with the white screen and i hope it will run out of battery. So can u please reply to me as soon as posible. Thank you

    Problem is I can't restore via iTunes, because when I plug the iPod touch into my laptop, it states it doesn't recognize the device - "USB device not recognized".  iTunes has no device listed for my iPod touch.
    It was plugged in all day while I was at work, could that be the problem?
    I tried to do it with the DVU method and it didn't work either.

  • I have an iPod Touch 4g. White screen and nothing is working or helping. Please HELP!!

    I was using Safari and the page froze. Then the screen went white. I've tried holding the power and home screen button down for over 30 seconds- no change. I've held down the power, home screen, and volume up buttons at the same time for over 40 second- no change. I've tried doing those with it connected to iMac and iTunes doesn't recognize it. The iPod was to be used at Birthday party tomorrow so PLEASE HELP ME!

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • Skype goes to Home screen and pops up to the foreg...

    As of about a month ago I've experienced an issue with Skype where once a day it pops up in front of whatever I'm doing. Each time it displays the home screen and the ads on there.
    This is highly annoying behaviour and I would like to know how I can prevent this from happening in the future. I'm using Skype version 6.21.73.104 and am running Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium.

    Same problem with an annoying screen pop up problem, but mine pops up every few minutes or when negotiating other programs. Bothersome - can't "x" it out, either. What to do?

  • My iPod Touch has a cracked screen and I think it's causing the home button to break. What do I do to see if it's fixable?

    I dropped my 4th generation iPod Touch and the screen cracked where it's not protected- at the head phone jack. the cracks aren't huge, but right around the home button. My home button is starting to stop working. I know I can send it in and Apple will tell me how much it costs to fix, but how do I go about doing that?

    Apple will exchange, as a out-ot -warranty repair,  your iPod for a refurbished one for $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity. For how see:

  • My second gen iPod touch has a blank screen, and won't turn on or charge in an AC outlet. When plugged into iTunes, it is completely recognized and synced, but the screen remains blank and off. What can I do?

    Hello.
    I recently woke up this morning to use my iPod Touch (2nd Gen) to find that it was completely unresponsive to both buttons and would not turn on. I had been using it the night before and had not charged it. Thinking the battery was drained, I plugged it into a wall outlet for two hours, and still no sign of life on the iPod. Plugging it into the computer, it immediately showed up in iTunes and synced normally, and even indicated it had nearly a full charge. Still, however, the screen showed nothing. I checked the lock and home buttons to see if it was stuck, but it was not. Does anyone have an idea of what this is? Do I need to get my iPod repaired? Any help would be appreciated.
    I am running iOS 4.1, and am out of warranty coverage.
    Thanks,
    - Justin

    1; Do a hard rest by holding the buttons at least 15 seconds. Does the Apple logo come on?
    2. Hold the power button down for at least 5 seconds. Do you see the battery symbol?
    If the answer is no to both questions, you most likely have a hardware issue--possible bad battery.

  • Ipod touch 2G is black screen and won't restore in Itunes (error 21)

    I have aquired an Ipod touch 2g 16g that I was hoping to make a present to my daughter with.  The device is I guess what is called "Black Screen of Death".  I can't get any image to display on the Ipod when trying to charge (which it apparenlty accepts) the item or when trying to connect it to Itunes.  Itunes recongizes the item in recovery mode, and attempts to restore the item and consistantly gives the error 21 message.  I am using Windows 7 and have tried to restore the device on a laptop running Win XP with the exact same results.  The screen will turn white during the process, and the machine will from what I have read and believe go into DFU mode, but it stops with error 21.  I am a Noob and have googled and googled for a week now with no luck.  I have tried the reinstallation of Itunes, all the updates to both Itunes and the machine, no security software, the works.  I tried connecting it to older son's laptop running Win 7 which he uses for his Ipod 2g 32 gig without problems.  My device was recognized on his machine, and he said on his Itunes he briefly saw songs on the device he did not have on his machine/device in his library before it hung again in the recovery mode loop.  I have read different articles and tutorials on jailbreaking and tried loading just the 'oem" firmware from apple with Redsnow and thought i was successful.  The device went through the process of white screen, several boots/dings of on my PC, and then an image appeared on the Ipod of "loading Jailbreak data".  After a few moments/minutes it then began what I believe is displaying the "verbose" booting running the lines of text on the screen.  I then notice it to stop and give me an error of something to the affect of init failed, and then a "lan error, watchdog timeout, giving up, a long pause, then quick scrolls down the screen and reboot back to white screen.  Holding the power button or home/power button puts it right back to a black screen and in the Itunes recovery mode loop/error 21 again.  Can anyone please help me resolve this issue before I pull what's left of my hair out.  I would love to get this working for my daughter before her birthday.  Thanks in advance to anyone who helps.

    Common, no one has any ideas?  Well, don't know if this will help, but here's some new data to process.  I noticed that when I was trying to load the firmware with Redsnow w/o installing any options to include Cydia I got errors displayed on the Ipod such as WMR NAND format invalid; NANDLegacyFTL failed.  Someone has got to know something.  I would appreciate any ideas or thoughts from anyone with any idea.  Thanks

  • Why can't iPod touch 2G use home screen background wallpaper?

    It really didn't make any sense. Everyone wants to update their iPod touch to iOS 4 just because they want to use Multitasking and home screen wallpaper. But Apple just don't let all the iPod touch 2G users use these features. I know that the touch 2G hardware is not powerful enough for the multitasking ability and it's reasonable, but just why can't we just replace the home screen background by a picture?

    Reports have quoted that Steve Jobs said that icon performance was degraded too badly with wallpaper for Apple to feel comfortable including that feature.
