My iPod touch keeps freezing when I play music?

So yesterday I notcied my 2nd gen itouch that whenever I played a song and change it the next button would do that glowing it usually does when you switch but it stays like that for awhile and the song doesnt change my ipod just force quits out of much and goes straight to home. and when i click music again it takes awhile to load and also say if i fully listened to a song and it goes to the next song 5 seconds then just stop.
My warrenty is expired i guess, i got it in 2009 June and then got a new one cuz that broke in december 2009 then ANOTHER one in 2010 of june ahahah so shouldnt i get a new warrenty everytime i get a new ipod. But im scared to cuz my stuff never backs up on itunes -__- (thats why i am scared to restore it)
Btw I tend to swtich songs alot, i dont have water damage but i have dropped it on tiles in my house but i have a case.

There is probably something wrong with the cable that connects it with your computer. Try getting a new one?

Why does my iPod touch keep freezing when I attempt to turn off iCloud Keychain in the settings?

Everytime I try to turn off iCloud Keychain, my iPod's
Screen freezes and automatically turns iCloud Keychain back on. I really don't want ICloud Keychain and it has been a while since I tried to turn it off.

All batteries recover a bit when they sit for a little while. Also most iPod battery apps register only in 5% increments, because it is hard to really be accurate to the single percent. Just because yours shows in 1% increments does not mean it is actually accurate to that level.

My iPod Touch 5th Generation won't play music out loud. Why and what can i do to 'fix' it?

My iPod Touch 5th Generation won't play music out loud. Why and what can i do to 'fix' it?

If you mean the headphones work but the speaker does not:
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
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.

If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

My iPod Touch keeps freezing! WHY?!

I have the 8GB, 4th Generation iPod Touch with software version 4.2.1. It's about two years old and has recently begun to freeze (no colored pages, just frozen on whatever screen it was on when it froze). It happens when I am playing and exploring my music the most and has even done it for no reason. The only way to pass it is to do a force quit by holding down the power and home buttons.
I have been to the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store and he reset my iPod back to it's factory settings and I left with a blank iPod and the hope that the problem had been solved. Alas, it had not. I got home, synced it to my library and behold, here we are again.
I don't play games or use apps that (literally, the only app I have is Facebook). I have a huge iTunes library, but I haven't filled my iPod to the max, so there's lots of storage space. So it can't be an app or storage issue. I do have it connected to my personal home wireless internet, but that has never ever given me problems, so I don't think that's an issue either.
I have gone through my entire iTunes library and found no corrupt files and everything is up to date (both iTunes and iPod software). I have even re-downloaded iTunes. I understand that I now have an outdated iPod since the 5th Generation is out and because of that, 4.2.1 is as far as 4th Generation users will get. Apple has stopped releasing updates for the 4th Generation iPods, so updates will now bypass 4th Generation users. Fine. I've had version 4.2.1 for well over a month now and it only recently began freezing and giving me issues.
All I want to do is browse and listen to my music without it freezing as that is all I use my iPod for.
I plan on revisiting the Genius Bar for another appointment in the very near future.
I am willing to try anything (as long as it won't harm my iPod). I do however refuse to buy a replacement since the 5th Generation is out and 4th Generation updates have been abandoned. So if it comes down to buying another one, it's going to be the newest one.
Is there anything else I can do?
HELP!
-Brandon

Correction: I have a 2nd Generation iPod Touch, not a 4th Gen. My mistake.
I have deleted a ton of stuff already. The only stuff left is music, that's pretty much it.
As far as restoring it goes, I have done that. The problem still seems to remain.
Any more ideas or suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated.
Thanks

My ipod touch is freezing when it tells me to restore what do i do!

i tried to upgrade to the new software thinking it would do nothing to my ipod but it did now it is constantly in recovery mode i cant do anything with it it tells me to restore it so i try and it freezes whilst in the middle of restoring any ideas

Take a look at this link http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/troubleshooting/ipodtouch/
I would suggest removing itunes through add/remove and then installing the latest version 7.6 and then hook your Ipod up and reset it while it's hooked up.
To Reset you do this
1. Turn iPod Touch OFF completely.
2. Plug iPod Touch into PC/MAC while still off.
3. Turn iPod touch on, then IMMEDIATELY do the following steps
4. Hold the 'Home button' and 'sleep/wake' button together for atleast 5 seconds.
5. The Apple logo will appear
6. When this happens release the 'sleep/wake' button BUT KEEP HOLD OF 'HOME' BUTTON
7. Your iPod will reboot (Apple logo)
6. iTunes will recognise iPod in 'Recovery mode'
8. You will be able to 'restore' your iPod Touch now.

My ipod touch keeps freezing and doesnt want to turn on anymore.

i have a 32gb 4th generation ipod touch, it stopped working properly like 2 weeks ago. It stopped functioning right when the home button didnt go as smooth. I had to press it really hard to go from one app to the home screen. if i pressed it twice to change music, it would turn negative color. i turned that off but the button kept acting the same. it is fustrating. ive tried turning it off then back on but it doesnt change and today while in an app it froze completely. i held the power and home button to reset it, although it was hard, it turned off. while trying to turn it back on, it froze on the black screen with the apple in the middle. is there anyway i can fix it or what can i do?
i need help its very fustrating and it keeps turning on and off by itself on the black screen with the apple for over 10 minutes.
ive only had it for 5 months. please help!

This also happened to me when I did the jailbreak and restored, he caught the apple in the middle of the screen and spent four monthswithout knowing what to do, I called support and found it was onlyTIGHTEN THE BUTTON UP, HOLD AND PRESS THE BUTTONAND HOME HOLD BOTH, then the image will appear to connectthe pc, when you will connect to iTunes and a message that youriPod disendo is in recovery mode, then just restore it and hope itreturns to normal. Hope this helps everyone.
Ps: I do not speak English and I'm translating this message forgoogle, so sorry for the mistakes grammarians.

My ipod classic keeps freezing when I plug it in, why?

I have an ipod classic that I bought off of Amazon about month ago. When I first plugged it into my computer to put songs on it, it worked fine, but now whenever I plug it into my laptop it freezes. I have to let it die everytime and this is becoming ridiculous. I even tried closing out all other open windows on my computer so that iTunes is the only thing that's open and it still freezes. I am severely ****** off and I feel like I've wasted $250 dollars. Is there anyway to prevent this from happening?

Hello Briannat1995,
It sounds like your iTunes application is becoming unresponsive when you plug your iPod Classic into your computer. I recommend trying the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iTunes: May become unresponsive when connecting iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

8GB ipod touch keeps freezing up and won't run apps correctly

I have an 8GB ipod touch that is almost a year old and it keeps freezing up. Some apps that use the motion side to side to move objects, doodlejump for example, won't work. I have reloaded apps and restored the ipod and it is still having a problem. What would be the issue and can it be fixed?

If the restore you did was from backup. restore to factory defaults/new iPod since you may have corruption that is now in your backup. If you then still have problems I wold make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If they determine it is a hardware problem and it is within warranty they should give you a replacment iPod.

My replacement ipod touch keeps freezing

I just got a new replacement ipod touch 2 weeks ago . It freezes every few sec but weird thing is that i think it is just the keyboard because it responds to the home button. This happens with like every app that needs a keyboard. Another weird thing is that this problem goes away and then comes back. And i lose wifi when this happens too. And it wouldnt let me put my ipod to shut down. Until i reset but the problem happened again. Right now it is gone cause i exited out of the app and restarted but it happens again later. This happens on safari too! If this replacement is another defect what do i do? :( I found out this problem when it wouldnt let me message my friends on facebook and i thought it was just the app but it started happening on safari too!

There are some major problems with this ipod. I know everyone says this, but restoring from a backup might help.
You could also make an appointment with a Genious at an apple store, if you live near one. They might be able to fix this better than someone on the forums. These appointments are free!!
