My ipod turns off when i play any song.

Can someone help me on what to do i really need it.

I assume it's fully charged? Does the same thing happen when you try to play the iPod whilst connected to power (either the computer or charger)?

Why does my ipod turn off when I dim the backlight?

why does my ipod turn off when I dim the backlight?

Probably because you do not have the headphones plugged all the way in. Make sure the plastic on the headphone jack is flush with the body of the Nano.
Incidentally, you are not running iOS 1.x

First make sure Shake to Shuffle is turned off in the Settings. If that doesn't help, try restoring your iPod to factory settings in iTunes.

- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- 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.

Ipod turns off when in unlock position

Hi!, I have an iPod nano and it only turns on when in the locked position and plugged in to computer or power outlet then shuts-off when switched to unlocked position...what gives! I have restored with itunes no luck. I bought new in 2009, maybe its toast.

If you have the Hold switch ON and it's connected to power, the iPod is ON... What happens when you disconnect it like that? Does it stay on for any length of time? Does it immediately turn OFF?
If it immediately (or within a few seconds) turns OFF, I'm not sure what's going on with the Hold switch, but your battery is probably worn out and not holding a charge.
If it stays ON, you are saying it will turn OFF if you move the Hold switch to the OFF position?

IPod turns off when screen turns off

When my iPod screen turns off so does the sound through the headphones. I tried updates, different headphones, reboots.
Any suggestions??
I was offered 6th generation for my 1st generation recalled nano, I regret switching now as my 1st generation was still going strong.

Hi Bricky66,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're experiencing some unusual behavior with your iPod nano. I'd suggest some of the troubleshooting steps in this article:
iPod troubleshooting basics and service FAQ

The headphones don't work
...If the issue appears to be with the iPod, try resetting it. If that doesn't work, then restore iPod with the latest iPod software using iTunes...
Best,

IPod turns off when i plug in a 1/4 inch jack.

Whenever I plug in a headphone jack into the ipod it turns off!
I can't use my iPod.
Has anyone had this problem?
This is my 4th iPod in a year.

A 1/4 inch jack won't fit into an iPod, I assume you mean an adapter to go from 1/8 to 1/4 inch?
The iPod headphone jack has a feature that pauses Playback when the headphone jack is pulled out. Sometimes certain jacks inadvertently activate this feature due to minor differences in jack design.
You may be using a Mono Jack Adapter (which has only one Black band) or a Stereo Jack Adapter (which has two black bands). Either one could be causing this problem.

My iPod works, but doesn't play any songs

Here's a list of what it does do:
1) It can connect fine.
2) It can be imported with songs, files, etc...
3) It can be operated just as any other iPod
Here's what it can't do:
1) It can't play any of the songs that I have imported into it, when I try to play a song, it freezes, I can hear the hard drive moving and if I fast forward I can catch parts of the songs (sometimes), but aside from that there's no music playback.
If you have a resolution for this, please do post, and thanks-a-million in advance

Try resetting 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.

My iPod touch 5 is unresponsive and won't turn on. My home button is stuck so I can't reboot it.. Any other way? My ipod turned off when I put it on the charger and now won't come back on

iit's ios8 5g 32G I have no idea what to do now please help

Your issue has nothing to do with Apple networking. You may get better results posting to one of iOS areas of the Communities.

Ipod turns off when jogging sometimes

have a third generation ipod that was upgraded from 15gb to 40gb. However, even when at 15gb, I had occassions where I would be running and suddenly the ipod would shut off. Not a batter problem as if you stop you can turn it on again. Sometimes it turns itself back on back to the start of a cd. Others have noted similar problems with theirs.

James - I've had a 15gb for a couple of years, and I believe this is a very common problem. The guts of the iPod is a small hard drive, it just doesn't like to be shaken. I went through several types of fanny paks and various holders and it would still die, usually after the cache of about 20 minutes elapsed. The best holder I found - and it solved the problem nicely - is an armband type from Marware. It fits snugly on your upper arm, and for reasons of physics and anatomy I don't understand, the jostling there is simply gentler.
Or you can buy a Shuffle or Nano, both of which use flash memory instead of a hard drive! Good luck.

HT1689 ipod turns off when wifi is turned on

I have an Ipod touch 2nd generation and it works fine, ive had it for a while now. But recently all of a sudden if I use anything on it, it stays working, but the second I press the switch to turn on wifi, the ipod shuts down and goes into a black screen. What should I do?

Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing is 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.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod
if still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipad is working very slow touch screen is not wokring perfectly and apps keep switching off when i play

IPad Mini, 64GB, IOS 8.1.
My IPad is working very slow.
The touch screen is not working as good.
Many problems when i play a game ( Real Racing 3) keeps on turning off when i play.
Camera is also blurry.
Screen sometimes goes blank.

Try these basic troubleshooting steps.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
Now close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If those three things made no difference, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
If all of that fails, restore the iOS software. Backup your iPad before you restore, then restore the backup when you are done. If that still doesn't help, restore your iPad as new and start all over again. Most purchased content can be downloaded again at no charge as long as you use the same Apple ID and as long as the content is still available in the store.
