My iPod touch is having a fit?

I have an ipod touch that seems to be stubborn some times and doesn't want to turn on. it seems to happen more frequently, i will being listening to my music or surfing safari and i will turn off the music and screen and when i get back to it it won't turn on. i press the home screen, the wake/sleep button, i try charging it and it takes me to reset the thing again. when i turn back on it's a little sluggish and will lag, so i turn it off and back on. its kinda annoying, does anybody know why this is happening and how to prevent it from happening again?

  • My ipod touch is having a fit when connected to my computer. Won't charge or sync. Other USB ports will let me at least charge. Anybody?

    My PC that has my iTunes all of a sudden does not want to recognize my itouch. My itouch kind of freaks out. It blinks charging on and off, on and off... I am able to charge it using another USB port like on my wii or wall charger. I updated iTunes to the most recent version and it made no difference. Please help.
    Any sugggestions?

    Try here:

    Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
    The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

  • My daughter's older Ipod Touch is having a problem with images becoming pixilated when taken from an e-mail and placed into her camera roll. ( She wants to put on Instagram ) Any help?

    I think that may be a consequence of the email provider she is using. Some services (AOL is one example) inspect and modify email attachments, particularly photos, resulting in reduced resolution compared to the email that was sent.
    The iPod does not do this. The resolution of the picture in the email she receives will be identical to what is imported.

    my ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

    Hey Silverdemon, sounds like a short, most likely in the headphones. Try a different set of headphones with this iPod or try the headphones with a different device. If the problem stops with your iPod or it moves to another device, then replace the headphones. If within 1 year of date of purchase Apple will replace the headphones for  free if problem is a defect, not abuse. If the problem continues with a different set of headphones, check the port for damage and foreign debris. If you note debris, attempt to remove it, if damage noted contact Apple and set up an appointment to have it evaluated. if nothing appears wrong, try plugging / unplugging to jack about 12 times maybe corrosion on the contacts if so that should clean it. Next thing to try reset your iPod. After that try restore from backup. Last resort, restore to new. Just make sure you make a full backup to your computer before you restore so no data is lost. If nothing works, contact Apple and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

  • HT201269 How can I unlock the password of my iPod touch without having to lose data?

    How can I unlock the password of my iPod touch without having to lose data? 
    You see, I'm trying to transfer the data from my iPod touch to my iPhone and I can't unlock the password of my iPod because it's cracked and I can't use the iPod at all. And the only way to unlock my iPod is by getting rid of everything from my iPod and I don't want that. What should I do? Can anyone help me on this?

    - Can you create a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and then click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up? If so do that than then restore the iPhone from that backup with all apps already in the iTunes library. The iOS on the iPhone has to be greater than or equal to that of the iPod.
    - Otherwise you are out of luck.

  • My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. Any tips?

    My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. I tried restarting it a few times, nothing worked. I looked up many tutorials, and still nothing did the trick. Any tips?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • Will the new ipod touch have the same fitness, no shoe insert, ability that the new nano will have

  • Ipod touch USB doesn't fit

    I just got a new 32 GB ipod touch but the ipod side of the wire doesn't fit. I'm not really sure why this would be happening and does anyone have any ideas?

    Are you saying that for the supplied 30-pin one end USB other end cable, the 30-pin cable end does not correctly fit into the iPod? Make sure the writing on the 30-pin end is o the same side of the display. Also, look at the receptacle in the ipod for bent pins or foreign mater and that the cable end looks OK too. If it still does not connect correctly I would make an appointment at the Genius bar of your local Apple Store or call Apple.

  • Is there a way to unlock an iPod Touch WITHOUT having to restore?

    Hey there.  My little nephew put a passcode on his iPod Touch and forgot it.  Is there anyway I can unlock it without having to restore the iPod as I don't have the computer it is backed up on?  I'd like to try to avoid going into the Apple store as we aren't close to one right now.  Thank you!!

    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:

  • Does an iPod touch 4th generation case fit an iPod touch classic's case?

    I bought an iPod touch 4th generation on amazon for aniPod touch classic. And paid $14.59 fr it...so I' hoping it fits!

    I doubt it will fit well.
    You can go here and find the dimensions of the two devices and see how well it will fit.

  • IPod Touch is having a problem with a single character!?

    I've tried to login to many websites over safari since I bought my iPod Touch, and until then, it was the very only thing that made my frustrated! I was never able to login to any web sites, always getting a login/password error.
    I was thinking that maybe the exclamation marks in my passwords where problematic, but no. So I started to replace every character of my usual passwords to find that...
    If I have a zero ("0") character in my passwords, it never works! Any idead!? I hope this thread can serve as a bug report!

    I'm using the Zero ("0") character.
    And as a matter of test, I did change every single password I could use on the net via iPod Touch, to something containing only letters, the number 3 and exclamation marks and everything works fine.
    Thus, a friend of mine did told me he was using a password via facebook that contained some zero (0) character. This is puzzeling me much!

  • Can you transfer pictures from an old ipod touch to a new ipod touch without having the old ipod touch or the photos in Iphoto?

    I somewhat recently got a new ipod touch after my screen cracked and the people at an Apple store said it would be cheaper to buy a new device completely.  I followed everything they said about backing up my old device and when I went to pick up the new one, the store took the old one away.
    Up until just a few days ago I did not realize Iphoto could hold pictures from your ipods.  Mine never did it automatically, nor did anything ever seem to have the option to do.  It just so happened that two days ago I was browsing the web when I noticed a website gave instructions on how to transfer photos.  So I tried it and it worked for my new ipod while all the new photos.
    But I was wondering if I could somehow get the old photos back from Itunes or my computer somewhere and transfer them into Iphoto or my new device.  I was hoping that maybe if I could "back up" my old stuff onto my new ipod for a few moments it would show I have the old photos and I could transfer them into Iphoto and then restore the ipod touch back to what I have it currently.
    If it helps, I'm pretty sure the old ipod touch I had was a 3gen as my new one I noticed was skinnier.  As I said, I do not have the old touch anymore but I have the data in Devices on my Itunes if that makes a difference.  Both my data for my old one and new one are in the Devices section of Itunes.
    Thanks,

  • 1st Gen iPod touch Keeps Having to Be Re-Registered with iTunes

    My 1st Gen. iPod touch works very well, with one exception. Every few weeks I'll turn it on and I'll get the picture of the cable and the iTunes icon - which is what you get the first time you use your iPod touch and means it needs to be registered with iTunes. This will happen both if I plug it in to my charger and when I just simply turn it on with the power button. I'll then take the touch to my computer and use my syn cable and plug it in. When the iTunes window comes up, on the left column it shows my touch, but the name I'd given it has gone back to the default name. I'll rename it again, but again within a week or two the same thing happens again. I'm stumped. I'm using an iMac running Leopard 10.5.6 and a white MacBook, also with 10.5.6. All my software on the touch, MacBook and iMac are up to date. I have very few apps on my touch and lots of room left on it to store stuff. Can anyone help? Thanks.

    Hi Brenda,
    That screen, with the iTunes icon and the USB cable, means the iPod is in recovery mode.
    This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 provides more information about the mode and how-to use it to restore your iPhone or iPod touch.
    Are you using any 3rd-party accessories with the iPod touch?
    Does the accessory have the Made for iPod logo?
    Try restoring the iPod again, setting it up as a new iPod, and testing it without any 3rd-party accessories.
    If the issue persists, the iPod may need hardware repair. Just make a reservation to have a Genius take a look at it or call AppleCare.
