My Nano Randomly Beeped (twice...)

My first generation black 2GB nano randomly beeped twice in a week, while playing music. The beep is not in the music. The iPod wasn't charging or connected to the computer, just playing the music. The first time it beeped, it was playing through speakers, and the second time, I was listening through earbuds and playing Brick.
Anyone know why this happened? It's not a big issue, I'm just wondering. Nothing else is wrong with the iPod except for a dead pixel, which I don't care about.

My best guess - have a look at your Alarm
settings...maybe one is set and is going off.
I checked..the alarm wasn't on, and it wasn't the two-tone alarm beep. It was one note, just for a second.
Also, when I said nothing else was wrong with it, I lied. Actually I didn't lie, I forgot that sometimes when I play a song, it will just cycle through all the songs without playing them, i.e. the information will come up for half a second, then onto the next song. And so on until it runs out of songs.
I suppose I'll try a full restore... That was my last resort...

  • My ipod nano has a white screen and beeps twice, Can i fix it?

    I left my ipod in my pants and they went througth th washer and dryer, I put them in white rice for two days and it still has the white screen and beeps twice, Can i fix it?

    Hello Emmuhhlieee,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:

    Display shows a white screen
    Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
    Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
    When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
    While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
    Best of luck,

  • Ipod nano: white screen and beeping twice

    I have an ipod nano 4th or 5th generation. When I try to turn it on, it displays a white screen and beeps twice. I have tried the basic things: toggling the lock switch, holding down select and menu buttons simultaneously, doing that and then holding down the play and select simultaneously. Even restored it. Updated all of my itunes software. Still broken. What next?

    Hi
    It seems to be ok now... I had to go out and it ran out of battery, when I switched it back on it  appears to be fine.
    If it happens again (hoping that it doesn't!) and i do the reset.. will that remove all the music that's on there?
    Sorry for the ignorance
    Thank you for the answer

  • IPod beeps twice, black screen.

    I was using my iPod (3rd generation nano) the other day and it was working fine. The battery ran out.
    I plugged it in and it beeped twice. The screen did not turn on. The click-wheel works. I can navigate (blindly) to a song and it will play normally.
    I toggled the hold button on-then back off.
    I've reset the iPod by holding menu-select for eight seconds and follow the iTunes instructions.
    I've also restored the iPod using iTunes.
    If I hold the iPod close to my ear, I hear a faint buzzing sound.
    The iPod continues to beep periodically as it charges (two beeps every two-three minutes). iTunes reloads each time.
    I can't turn the iPod off.
    Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Does anyone know of a possible solution?
    Please help.
    I am running iTunes 9.2 (61) on OS 10.4.11.

    i have the same problem, it beeps if i connect it to my itunes or my ipod speakers it beeps couple of times, if i press play then it plays music but if i don't it keeps beeping. the screen is just black all the time. i really need help fixing this!!

    I understand that your computer will randomly beep.  You have exchanged the notebook and this is the fifth replacement with the same issue.
    I am not sure if this occured at start up or not but here is a link that may help.
    Computer does not start and the LEDs blink or the computer beeps

  • My iPod has a white screen.  After holding down the middle and the menu button it goes black, then back white, and then beeps twice but stays white.  It never shows the apple logo, just stays white - help!

    My iPod has a white screen.  After holding down the middle and menu button, the screen goes black then back to white and beeps twice.  I have returned to original settings and resorted content to no avail.  I still have a white screen.  I have plugged it up and tried resetting again and again, still a white screen with two beeps - help.

    I have the same exact issue. Fifth generation iPod Nano, blank screen, Restore had no effect. I'm running Windows 7 Home, with all software up-to-date. I suspect hardware damage. Any clarification would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

  • I'm getting a random beep sound when I hit the input button to record a turntable

    I'm getting a random beep sound when I hit the input button to record a turntable & mixer plugged into the mbox thats bleeding into the recording. How can I stop this? Please help me. It's happening if I'm recording or not, as soon as I hit the (I) input it beeps randomly.

    Thanks Jim,
    Seems to be this song. Other projects don't have this issue.
    I even took and opened the project on another computer, bounced it again and got the same "click" at the same 13 second area.
    I've bounced each track solo, listened and NO click at the 13 sec. mark
    No third party plug-ins.
    The click doesn't land close to any beginning or end of a region.
    Final mix down looks good, no peaking over 0db.
    This is making me nuts!

  • Iphone randomly beeps

    Hi all,
    HELP!!! My iphone keeps randomly beeping/vibrating (if it's on silent). It's like I have a new message, but I DON'T have one. It's not a calendar alert, or an alarm, or a new sms, new voicemail, new email, new anything. It is just randomly beeping. There is no standard interval, it can beep every minute or every 5 minutes, reset, power-off... and it beeps as soon as it starts back up. It isn't jumping on and off the wi-fi or edge, I'm at home and haven't moved and it still beeps. I restored my phone and it stopped... for about a day, now it's back at it and worse than ever!
    This is really irritating. I googled and found a message about a similar problem that no one ever posted a solution to; I'm hoping I can find one here.
    Thank you!

    I thought it was just me but now and then mine does the same. Mine is not bad though and only a few times a day but when I go to look nothing is there, no notifications, sms, emails, etc....

  • White screen, beeps twice. Keeps telling me it's in recovery mode and I need to restore it but when I try it tells me it's in recovery mode.

    I've reset it and all it does is beep twice and the screen stays white. When I restore it it comes up telling me it's in recovery mode and that I need to restore it so I do and the same message pops up. I'm seriously frustrated. I have nothing but problems with all of my mac products and I'm sick of it!

    You cannot.  If it is in recovery mode, the data is already gone.
    Did you fail to make sure everything was on your computer before updating?

  • Random beeps/tones while talking on iPhone (3Gs)?

    Has anyone else noticed the iPhone 3Gs (my model) making random beeps or tones while talking? It appears to be when your wireless is enabled on the phone. As soon as wireless is disabled, these beeps during a phone call go away. This issue appeared during iOS 6.0.1 update.
    The beeps occur at any time and are not part of a minute beep, notificiation beep, or any other type of iOS function. The phone was fully restored to factory and apps were added. The method to "get rid" of the beeps is to disable wifi and it appears to dissapear.
    Anyone at Apple care to shed light on their Q/A process?

    My girlfriend's iphone 4s does this to me all the time. Not only do I hear it on my iphone 5, but also my house phone. I'm guessing it's her phone or Sprint.

  • Random beeping noises

    I have seemed to find lately that my computer randomly beeps, every 10 or so seconds, the sound, sounds like the alert sound when you make an error, or when a window pops-up asking you to do something....I don't know how to fix this, i've looked in my sound preferences and can't see anywhere i've ticked, and I've run disk permissions and that didn't help either, please help!!!

  • Random Beeping

    While my machine is running I get random beeping. It's lot really random but it's a long pattern, too complex to explain but first there is a beep, then 10 secs later another beep, and then it waits a while and then the beeps start to change tones and such. I've never had this before and my system seems to be running fine other than a few lag problems i recently noticed. Today I just added a stick of ram and a new HD, the ram seems fine, windows recognizes it and the hard drive has given me no problems. Any thoughts on what this weird and very annoying beeping symbolizes?

    do you have cpu temp warning enabled i  bios ?
    i got random beeps on my board when bios reported a cpu temp oF 43 celsius and warning was set to 50celsius.
    it was on a k7n2 board.
    and glennvidia is right.
    without specs or a signature its not much we can do as we dont have any crystal balls or mind reading capabilities
    make a signature with all you got.
    you can take mine and glennvidia as 2 good examples.

  • G510 Random beeps

    Hi everyone,
    I've only had this laptop for 3 weeks and so far the battery is almost hanging out and now it has started to make a random beep every now and then.
    Open or closed, plug in or on battery, idle or surfing it makes no difference. It only makes one single beep and could be within minutes of each other or hours. 
    Anyone got any idea why this is happening?
    Nick

    Hi,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    I’m sorry to hear that your G510 Laptop is generating Random Beeps each and every time, I suggest you to perform the Flee-Power and check if the issue persists. Below are the steps to check the issue:
    Remove the battery and any other peripheral device connected to the computer.
    Hold the power button for 10-15 seconds and then connect only the AC Adapter and try to turn ON the computer.
    Do post us back if the issue still persists.
    Best Regards
    Shiva Kumar
