Pac Man on my iPod won't move upwards

I have installed Pac Man on my 5G iPod. Everything is working fine except the "move upwards button". Pac Man won't move upwards - I get to the "Game Paused" menu instead. It seems my iPod is wired in a weird way. Has anyone seen this problem? Does anyone know a solution to it?

sounds like an issue with your wheel... maybe overused? i dunno... you are right... it is weird.. did you try a cold boot?

    It's just the Google homepage tribute to Pacman turning 30 today. A playable game starts up automatically, use the arrow keys to move Pacman. It's fun!
    You can get Ms Pacman to appear in that game by clicking the "insert coin" button twice and using the WASD keys to move :)
    You can also just change your homepage to something other than google until tomorrow.

  • Ms. Pac Man Game for Ipod Nano 3rd generation?

    I was going to purchase Ms Pac Man for my Ipod which of course is the 3rd generation. It says on the main screen that it is only for the 3rd and 5th generation. When I click buy it says, "Warning - for 5th generation only!" Does anyone know which is true?
    Thanks!

    Oh wait - I went back into the store and looked at my account. I think what happened is I plugged the nano in while I was trying to buy... plug it in first then go to the store and buy...It should play on a 3rd gen nano ... even though that disclaimer during the buy process says you need a 5th gen video iPod.

  • Pac-Man   They said all "the stages" but does this mean just new fruits?

    I'm tired of pac man game advertisers saying that they offer "all the stages" only to find out it's the same darn maze over and over.
    Having played this just a few times my take is that they offer the same maze over and over again. I've successfully played up to 5 mazes. Anyone gone further to see if there are actually more mazes?
    One maze is so boring.

    Actually I didn't. As I haven't played Pac-Man on the iPod yet. I apologize for misunderstanding that you meant 'maze pattern'.
    Now, not being an uber Pac-Man player (I top out after 3 or 4 levels a sitting), I do not know how often the pattern changes. But according to a FAQ the 'real' game can be completed by only knowing 5 patterns.

  • HT1351 Why won't movie files from flip camera won't play on ipod even after being converted?

    Why won't movie files from flip camera won't play on ipod even after being converted?

    Try the standard fixes:
    - 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 defaults/new iPod.

  • Pac Man on Ipod using windows

    Pac Man shows up in my library but not on my Ipod. I have synced my ipod many times does any one know how I can get it on my Ipod?

    First of all, I'm just going to point out the obvious fact, that you need a 5th Gen (ie. video) iPod, with 1.2 firmware or later, in order to put games on it.
    So assuming you have a 5th gen with 1.2 or later, then you need to select the iPod under Devices, and then click the "Games" tab at the top of your screen, in order to sync the game to your iPod.

  • HT1349 Ipod touch won't move past password screen

    my ipod touch 4g keeps asking for hotmail password. I enter it and it is not taking it and won't move past this screen. Any idea how to get this off?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • PAC-MAN for iPod NANO in the USA

    I added this to my cart, it will not let me download ... says "the item you've requested is not currently in the US store."
    WHAT THE !!!!! Pac-Man not avl. for USA purchase!
    Any one know whats up?

    You do not need to install anything.
    iTunes is iTunes and you do not need to reinstall it.
    Simply plug in the new iPod and it will work.

  • HT3819 When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not.  When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them.

  • Bought Pac-Man, Downloads but will not show up in my libary. Charged 3 time

    Ok, I went to the music store, then went to games and I signed in and purchased Pac-Man. Everything is cool, it downloads pretty quickly, I belive it was 8.28 mb or something like that and once its finished downloading it simply vanishes, it did not go in to my libary, or my playlist, I couldnt find it anywhere. So I checked my paypal account to see if the charge went through and when I bought movies from itunes before it charged me instantly, this time there was no charge. So I thought maybe it didnt purchase it so I try it one more time, the exact same thing happens, downloads and its no where to be found, then I check paypal still nothing, I tried one more time and it did the exact same thing. I checked my paypal the other day and it say -$15 from itunes, so i checked my invoice and it said pac-man x3 each one being $5 bucks. Its one thing to charged 3 times for the same thing but I dont even have the game to show for it. Yes I have a 5th gen ipod, yes I have the most current version of itunes and yes I had my itunes check for purchases, it says all my purchases have successfully downloaded. Does anyone know where my 3 pac-man games are, or what I need to do to get them?
    Thanks.
    Tl;dr bought pac-man, downloads successfully but does not save/stay in my libary/itunes.

    I had this exact same problem when I updated to iOS 7 , so I contacted iBooks there information to me was to completely reboot my iPad and iPhone 5s , and then when it's rebooted ( sorry delete the app before rebooting , my mistake ) after it's rebooted download app again , and ask for previous purchases to be restored , was done in seconds , and I lost 7 books , all on my devices now , if I don't read for a while they just automatically get put into the cloud , and just download to read , hope this helps . And please delete app before rebooting , john.

  • IPod Won't Play Songs, Videos Reset it, and it's Quite Sluggish

    I have a 30GB video iPod (the old version). Everything was working fine until a few days ago, when the power on my iPod ran out because I fell asleep while listening to it. The next day when I turned it on, it said "Connect to your Computer, Use iTunes to restore" So I promptly did that, and it worked fine until I tried to play a video on it. It showed a blank screen, so I reset it by pressing the Menu and Center buttons. Then it showed the "Connect to your computer" screen again. So I restored it, and it would be fine until it locked up again and showed the "Connect to your computer screen" again. I left it alone for about eight hours, and when I tried turning it back on again, it was back to normal.I've seen that screen probably 10 times in the past 4 days, and I've restored it, just as many times.
    Here's the list of problems I'm having:
    - the iPod won't play some songs when I click on them. It will show the Playing triangle in the upper left corner, but I hear no sound and the seeking bar doesn't move. I'll often have to click the Pause button, then hit it again to Play it, and then it will play the song.
    - The iPod is extremely slow. When dealing with songs or videos, it often takes a minute or more for the iPod to respond to my button clicks. Its hard drive isn't full, though; in fact I'm only using about 2 GB.
    - Videos lock up the iPod. Just about any time I want to play I video on it, it will show a blank screen and won't respond. Then I have to reset it and I get the "Connect to your computer" screen again. These aren't videos in the wrong format or anything, these are the same videos I've been playing on my iPod before with no problems, until recently.
    - Battery life is horrible. Although it hasn't been fully drained yet, judging from the power meter and how long I've been using it after it's fully charged, I'd guess it would only last about 2-3 hours. I would think it should last considerably longer, as the iPod is only about 3 months old.
    Has anybody been experiencing similar problems, or know what I can do to fix it?

    I've still had the same problems, but now when I try and turn on my ipod, it tells me to restore. When I do go to restore, itunes says that it cannot find the file needed to restore my ipod. The ipod itself also tried resetting itself, I guess, made it to the menu that asked what language I wanted it in, and then restarted again. This went on for an hour and a half, and I could't do anything. Is my ipod a lost cause?

  • IPOD won't update from iTunes

    Jeez, I thought that iTunes/iPOD would be pretty simple; move music from here to there. I have been using for over a year with no problem, but within the latest couple of upgrades to iTunes, my iPOD will no longer update correctly. I have spent over 6 hours trying to figure this crap out, and it still won't work. YEAH, I have the latest Updater/iPOD software installed, and the latest iTunes. Plug in my iPOD, and it says its updating, and I can see the new music on the iPOD from iTunes, but its NOT ON MY IPOD when I unplug and try and play. The other day I formatted the dang thing, and spent five hours moving music; next day added two additional songs to the library, and they will not move to the iPOD. Have tried moving manually, but they still will not play on the iPOD.
    What kind of crap are you giving us??? If iTunes/iPOD won't do what its supposed to do (move music from here to there), then I don't want to mess around with it. If you can't move my music properly, why would I put my Contacts/Calendars on this device?
    Support: Forget about it! Post a message in a Discussion Group and hope for the best. Forget about actually calling someone and asking for help, even though you paid top dollar for your 30gb iPOD. I'm starting to look for some fool to buy it and let them deal with it. Oh Yeah, by the way, the screen is scratched even though I bought a PROTECTIVE case for it.
    Several people in our office were interested in purchasing an iPOD, iShuffle and I have convinced them to look elsewhere.
    Two people in our office recently purchased iShuffles that did not work...

  • Repaired screen and now iPod won't play

    I replaced the broken LCD screen in my son's 1st gen black nano. It looks beautiful! There is a problem with the ipod now though. The iPod won't play. Everything works perfectly...screen is bright and beautiful, click wheel works to move through all menus, change volume, etc. You can choose a song, but the song won't play. The little triangle that stands for play is in the top left corner like it wants to play, but the status bar that tells you how long the song is doesn't move at all. You can fast forward through the song manually, but it won't play.
    I have reset the ipod by toggling the hold button and pressing the select and menu choices from the click wheel. I have done the 5 R's that Apple suggests. I have even restored it to original facotry settings. iTunes can see it and re-downloaded all of the music onto it. All of the software on the computer is updated and the ipod software has been updated. Everything works fine except it won't play!
    When I had the iPod open and was working on it, there were 2 ribbon cables that needed to be connected, 1 was the click wheel cable and 1 was the LCD screen cable. I have attached those securely and both are working properly except for the matter that it won't play songs. There was 1 other flat copper cable that seems to be glued to the click wheel that I didn't see in any of the pictures in the repair manual. It's not a ribbon cable. One end is still glued to the click wheel, but the other end is loose. This is probably the problem. I don't remember disconnecting this during the repair, although I know it had to be connected somewhere. I reaches up close to where the earphone jack is. Does anyone have any idea where this flat copper cable is supposed to be connected? I would appreciate any help you can give me! Thanks!
    iPod 1st gen black nano   Windows XP  

    Here is the URL for the picture of the copper cable. The dark part at the end of the copper cable is a piece of silver metal mesh that is glued on one side of the copper cable. You can see that it is glued at the other end to the back of the click wheel underneath where the battery was glued down. I vaguely remember that it was connected to something else, but I don't remember disconnecting it because I was so intent on getting the ribbon cables disconnected without damaging them.
