Have you tried the following:

Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod via iTunes on your computer.  First from backup and if the problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My iphone4 keeps freezing, any suggestions/help?

    I have had and enjoyed my iphone 4 for a few months and untill the last few weeks it has been working great. A couple weeks ago it started randomly freezing in my camera app. it wouldn't allow me to take a pic or acces my alblum. To make matters more fustrating as of this morning it is freezing completely. I went to my alblum and when it froze I went to return to my home screen and it wouldn't go, so I restarted my phone and it took almost a half hour of freezing before it restarted. and once it did I couldnt text, call or acces my app's. So I reset my phone to factory network settings (the option to reset without losing app's) and now it is kind of working, but i'm worried at any time its going to freeze again. This is my only source of contacting my kids school and daycare when i'm out working, so any help would be appreciated...thanks

    Follow the article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to set up your phone "as new iphone". Make sure that you preserve your latest backup by copying the folder to a safe place.
    The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP,  Windows Vista and Windows 7).

  • My brand new iPad keeps freezing - any suggestions?

    Just bought a new iPad, and after setting it up it tarted to freeze. having to reset it to get it going again. Works perfectly for a while but then freezes again.this has happened 6 times in the last 2 hours.

    First, 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 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.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Screen Keeps Freezing & Sleep Wake issues

    I have a 17" Macbook Pro and the screen keeps freezing.  The computer doesnt freeze because when i depress the volume buttons i can still hear the beeps or when i hit F8 music from my itunes starts to play.
    Also,  60% of the time when my computer goes to sleep I get a blank screen when i try to wake it.  When this happens i have to close the screen for about 2 mins until the computer re-falls asleep.  Once this happens I can then wake it up. 
    any ideas on the causes of these two issues?

    Hello
    > he told me that the laptop is pretty warm.
    Probably this happens due a higher internal temperature
    Did your friend already clean the notebook?

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Report any errors it found for Disk Repair, don't need the ones for Permissions Repair.
    Try it again & see if anything changed, but have Activity Monitor open & Show All Processes & sorted on CPU%, also have Console open if we can... maybe not when switching, but we'll see.
    Does this happen if you just try to create a new admin user???

  • Why does my Ipad screen keep freezing even after rebooting

    My ipad screen keeps freezing and remains stuck. So in the last hour this has happened 3 times after hard "reboots". Can someone explain whats going on? Uwas not downloading anything ..only looking at Facebook.

    Hello, Nina1711. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Test the responsiveness of the iPad after processing these steps.  If the issue persists, check to make sure you have space available on the iPad in Settings/General/About.  If there is no space available you may want to remove unwanted Apps or media as this can cause the unit to become unresponsive.  If these steps have been processed with the issue persisting, you will need to restore the device.  Make sure to backup the device prior to restoring.

  • My Macbook Pro keeps freezing, any way to fix this?

    My Macbook Pro 13" late 2012 keeps freezing during normal usage or when i just leave it unattended. I've had to manually shut it down a bunch of times already. The first time I had to shut it down, the screen got messed up and looked like a broken screen with static and stuff.
    Does anyone have a way to check out what this problem is and possibly fix it?

    I tried Peggy's List > Select All > Copy > Paste into an AW spreadsheet suggestion.
    In my case, pasting into the spreadsheet lost all text formatting (mostly text set to bold). The results of formulas were pasted, and checkboxes were pasted as "on" or "off". The DB did not contain any pop-up menus or radio buttons, but I expect they would transfer as a number showing the list position of the chosen item.
    Pasting the copied List view data into a Numbers table gave a result similar to that with AppleWorks. I selected B2 as the target cell (for top left cell of the pasted data) to avoid any effects of posting into a header row or column. Bold and regular text formatting looked the same as it had in AW's List view.
    Based on that, I'd slip the 'paste into an AppleWorks Spreadsheet step, and paste directly into a Numbers Table.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • 2008 24inch iMac freezing - any suggestions?

    Hello,
    My mac keeps shutting down and I'm hoping someone out there can help!  It's a 24inch iMac that I bought in late 2008 and the problems have been ongoing intermittently for maybe 6 months now.  Basically what will happen is that I’ll be using it when it will suddenly freeze and the screen goes blank.  I have to then hold down the power button on the back to turn it off and then on again.  Since I don’t know what’s causing this, the following may or may not be relevant:
    I use it most often for internet (I use firefox) but the issue has happened when doing other things too, so I don’t think it’s related to any particular problem.
    I was running leopard and wondered if the problem was because I needed to upgrade, but since installing snow leopard the problem is exactly the same. 
    The computer seems to get hot, especially on the top left corner.
    It’s showing that I have 36GB free on the hard drive.
    I've been searching online for suggestions but haven't found anything directly relevant.  Could anyone give me some ideas of what  to try?  Is it just getting old or is there something I can do?  Any suggestions gratefully accepted and please let me know if there's other information that you would need to know in order to provide any suggestions.
    Thanks so much in advance.
    Model Name: iMac
    Model Identifier: iMac8,1
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 1
    Total Number Of Cores: 2
    L2 Cache: 6 MB
    Memory:            2 GB

    Hmmm, this isn't working out so well.  I tried to install after downloading from Macupdate, and it didn't work properly.  I first saved the zip file, and then unzipped it but couldn't open the file.  Now when I try to delete it, I get a message saying that I can't delete the application because it is open.  When I try to open it, I get a message saying I can't open because it's damaged or incomplete.  Any thoughts? 
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Touch screen keeps freezing

    All too often, the touch screen freezes on me. This usually happens after I try and make a gesture. Then the screen becomes completely unresponsive.
    The button at the bottom still works. I can either wait about a minute, and then the screen unfreezes, or I can push the power button at the top, put the phone in standby mode and then the screen is responsive as soon as I wake it up from the home button again.
    Please let me know any suggestions to resolve this. Thanks.

    "Apple: the new Microsoft?"
    That's harsh, but looks like it is true!
    I am having the exact same problem as everyone else here. Since upgrading to the iOS4.0.1 my phone has become incredibly slow and unresponsive. The touch screen will often lock/freeze not allowing you to answer calls. This would not be such a terrible thing if the "home" button could be configured as a back-up answer mode. I have missed several important phone calls as a result.
    The 3G and 3GS were great phones. Maybe a few glitches here and there but at least you could answer the phone when a call came in!
    Likewise, "Windows 97" was a great OS then Microsoft decided to make improvements and developed "Vista". Now Microsoft's towering kingdom is falling because they would never admit that they developed a flawed system. Now they have come out with Windows 7, but it's too late every one has given up and started moving to Mac.
    Apple, beware that your pride and arrogance doesn't take you to the same fate. You need to offer some sort of customer support where we can inform you of issues like these. We should not have to pay to talk to a tech when it is a flaw in your software that is causing the problems.
