Nano turns itself off and appears to reset after clicking 'music'

hey, i wonder if anyone can help.
When i turn on my nano and click 'music' as you normally would to listen to a song or browse artists - my ipod turns off and then comes back on with the black screen with the white apple in the middle, much like when it is reset.
This is continually happening, and i cannot access any songs or podcasts on my nano.
please help, thanks.

  • My I phone5c has turned itself off and won't turn back on,have only had it 3 weeks,any ideas anyone?

    My iPhone 5c has turned itself off and won't turn back on, any ideas anyone?

    Hey Jswalker1969,
    Thanks for the question. If your iPhone is not powering on, see the following troubleshooting steps:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    1. Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    2. Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion.
    Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    3. Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    4. After at least 30 minutes, if:
                   - The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
                   - The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
                   - Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    5. If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
                   - If the display turns on, go to step 4.
                   - If the display remains black, go to next step.
    6. Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    7. If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • HT1296 Since I downloaded iOS 7, my iPhone is constantly turning itself off and the battery useage is twice what it used to be.  I want iOS 6 back!  How do I uninstall iOS 7?

    I downloaded iOS 7.0.2, and now my iPhone 5 keeps turning itself off and the battery useage is twice what it was.  I want iOS 6 back!  How do I uninstall iOS 7?>

    So, after it charged and was still plugged in, I deleted the Exchange account and then reset it holding down the sleep wake buttons until the apple logo appeared. I also changed the limit on my emails to 3 days instead of 1 week.  It turned on, so I turned it off and let it charge overnight.  This morning, it stayed on for 3 whole hours and then shut itself off again.  I had to try 5 times to get it to come back on.  Now, a message appeared that Exchange cannot verify a server, I can't see the full name of the server anymore, but it is *.hotmail.com GlobalSign Root CA from Microsoft. So I'm selecting Accept to see what happens.  I'm very discouraged, I need my phone to be reliable for my work.  It was reliable for 11 months without one problem, and now since I downloaded iOS 7, it hasn't been on for one full day since.

  • My ipad2 keeps turning itself off and On

    my ipad2 keeps turning itself off and on. I can be playing a game or looking on the Internet and it will just turn off and restart all by itself. I pulled up and hooked it up to itunes on my computer but I'm not really sure what to do there either.  It's so annoying, especially when it's used daily, or all day, by me or my kids and it's constantly shutting off in the middle of things.

    DId the rebooting start recently after doing an iOS update or installing a game? 
    There could be several reasons for your iPad randomly shutting down & restarting. 
    Sometimes low memory (RAM) can cause the issue. 
    First, restart the iPad by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears then let go and wait until the iPad boots up normally.  This can help clear the cache & free up memory.
    If that doesn't work, try a general reset:
    Settings->General->Reset->Reset All Settings.  You will not lose any data but will have to log back into your Wifi networks.
    If the issue occurs while using a particular app, try uninstalling the app to see if it continues.
    As a last resort try restoring the iPad back to factory settings.  Be sure to backup your iPad first.

    Unfortunately, it may also be that your battery is starting to fail but try the above to see if the problem persists.

    My iPhone 4s turned itself off and won't turn back on. What do I do?

    Thanks for your help. I tried plugging it in but nothing happened, I actually still had battery power left. I was able to solve my problem by holding down the power and home buttons, which reset the phone and got it started again.
    Thanks for trying

  • My iphone 4 has turned itself off and I cant get it back on, it had a full battery before it cut off.

    My Iphone 4 has just turned itself off and I cant turn it back on. It had a full battery before it cut off so its definetly not the battery, however I have found recently that the battery has been running out really quickly. any ideas what to do? Thanks

  • Iphone 5c turns itself off and won't turn on until plugged in

    I just received my replacement iPhone 5c and it worked fine the first night, the next day, the phone turned itself off, and would not let me turn it back on. I tried the reset option by holding down the lock and the home buttons, but that did not work. my phone only turns on when it is plugged in. It then shows me that battery is lows, and then powers on ad says 100% charged.
    My lower screen blinks while it is plugged in as well.....
    Any help?

    You might have a bad battery. But first try recalibrating the battery gauge. Run the battery all the way down until the phone shuts off and doesn't restart. Then charge for 4 hours with the wall charger. Repeat the process. If the problem remains you need a new battery.

  • My iphone has turned itself off and asking to be connected to itunes however i cant put the passcode in

    my iphone has turned itself off and asking to be connected to itunes however i cant put the passcode in for itunes to restore it as it will only let me make emergency calls. Any help?

    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • My 7520 computer turns itself off and on several times a day.

    My 7520 computer turns itself off and on several times a day.  It makes the "chime sound similar to when you power it off and on, in addition to the sound it makes when it checks/resets the printer heads.  So far I have reloaded the software and changed the location of the plug to a power strip and then back to a separate outlet.  No luck.  Any other ideas?

  • The E7 turns itself OFF (and then restarts) when i...

    I proved it with complete accuracy.
    It happens as long as the Network Mode is set to either 3G or Dual Mode, regardless the presence and strength of GSM signal.
    Guess the trouble when you are driving and talking at the phone or using it as GPS device.
    All of a sudden it turns itself off and reboot/restarts.
    My E7 has Symbian Anna version 022.014
    I was wondering if this *serious* problem has been recognized and fixed yet.
    Can someone advise, please?
    Thanks...

    Hi paolopiace,
    Welcome to the Nokia forum.
    I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing some issues with your E7. Try a hard reset by entering *#7370# into your phone. The default security code is 12345. Don't forget to make a back up of your data as well so that you can easily move everything back onto the device after the reset. You can make a back up with Nokia Suite
    If this doesn't fix it, reinstall the current software with Nokia Suite. This should solve any errors in the phone. Belle will be rolling out soon as well, so if reinstalling Anna doesn't work you can try Belle instead, when it becomes available. 
    If, after trying all the above, the phone keeps switching itself off, I would definitely recommend bringing it to a local care centre where they can check it out and fix the issue for you. Your phone has a 24 month warranty period so this won't cost you anything. 
    You can find a local care centre by visiting your local Nokia web page and clicking on the Support tab. To find out the expiry date of your warranty, you can call your local care line. The only thing you need is your IMEI, which you can find by entering *#06# into your phone. The phone number for your local care line can also be found under the Support tab on your local Nokia web page.
    Let me know how you get on!

  • My iphone 4s keeps freezing and turning itself off and the wifi option is now greyed out

    My iphone 4s has been freezing and turning itself off and on for a few weeks now. I have reset it to factory settings and reinstalled everything, have updated the operating system but nothing seems to work. It was having problems connecting to wifi and when I tried to access the settings it freezes and can't find any connections. I have just updated the phone to 7.1 and now the wifi option is completely greyed out.

    Your battery may have completely run down. When you connect it to power, leave it. It can take even up to an hour to get enough charge to get it to a useable state.
    Although, I believe even fully drained, you should see some kind of indication on the screen of charging in progress, but it's very dim.
