Problem after updating to iOS 8.1 on my iPod touch 5th gen

I just want to report to Apple that after updating my iPod Touch 5th Generation to iOS 8.1, my iPod just shuts down by itself from time to time.  The only way you can turn it on is by pressing the top right button and the home button at the same time.  You can't turn it back on anymore by just pressing the top right button or by charging it like I used to.  Is this one of the bugs that Apple needs to fix?  Am I the only one who have this problem??

Try:
- Restore from backup. See:                                               
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
  - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Problems after iOS 7.1.2 on Ipod Touch 5th Gen

    At about 3 hours ago my Ipod Touch 5th Gen turned off on me. It came back on itself, so I accessed the lock screen correctly put my password in and thats where my problems started.
    I put in the correct password it accepted it.
    The screen then changed to my background screen colour.
    Very quickly the screen went black and the apple logo came on (as if it was turning on)
    I repeated the process again and I can not access my home screen or any of the apps. It repeats itself.
    I've had all my apps crash on me ever since I downloaded the iOS 7.1.2 update.
    On the lock screen I can still access the flash light and both cameras?
    What I have tried:
    Turning it on and off.
    Charging it.
    Plugging it into iTunes.
    Reset where I hold the lock and home button.
    Nothing works.
    Its a 32gb Ipod touch 5th gen with about 6gb of storaged unused.
    I haven't dropped it or done anything unusual.
    At the time it crashed I was playing on Farmville 2 app. This app crashes alot could it have something to do with it?
    Please someone help me, I've googled it and can't find any problem like mine on here!
    I've only had it 7 months.
    Thanks,
    Nadia

    Then do this:
    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • How can the artist view pictures in music be updated in IOS 7?  My device (Ipod Touch 5th) used to have the artist pictures but when I restored it from factory default, it only used the pictures from the album.

    Please help.  I have updated to the IOS 7 and there was a cool feature in the Music app wherein when you view an album artist, i think apple updates the picture of that artist from their gallery.  But when I decided to restore to factory defaults, it never came back and only uses the picture from the albums.

    I have the same problem.  After a full restore my iphone 5 does not display the artist photos, but it does show the correct album covers once i go into that group.  Instead i get a grey box with diagonal writing saying the band name but no picture.

  • Iphone 5 back camera problem after update to IOS 8. Focus doesn't work on back camera!

    My device is Iphone 5 64gb IOS 8.
    I have problem after update to IOS 8. When i run camera.. I hear some scratch inside my phone. And focus of back camera doesn't work.
    1. How can i fix it?
    2. Or how to rollback to IOS 7+ ?
    3. Should i come to app store with this problem?

    I'm having this same problem too.  Worked fine prior to iOS update.  I contacted Verizon this morning who advised that this is a known issue.  They suggested I backup my device, and perform a factory data reset.  When prompted to update to iOS 8 again, re-installation has been known to resolve the issue.  With all the problems with iOS 8, camera, and overall device slowing, I might just wait for a follow on SW turn.

    Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
    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.

    - Try another cable

  • Ipod touch 5th gen will not sync after windows 8.1 update

    ipod touch 5th gen will not sync after windows 8.1 update. Computer see's Itouch as mass storage and charges. Worked with Window's 8 fine, as soon as update was done and restarted computer Itouch doesn't show up. Itouch seen on two other computers.

  • IPod Touch 5th Gen iOS 6 Updates Screen is Blank (White)

    The indicator verifies that I have 15 Updates but my iPod Touch 5th Gen w/ iOS 6 just started showing a blank white screen for the updates screen.
    I've tried powering off and back on, resetting (pushing both buttons for 10 seconds), syncing, transferring purchases, and the wifi reset trick, but none of these things makes any difference to the issue.
    I saw thousands of posts in various forums that this has been affecting people for over a year.  Someone must have found a fix by now that works.  This is a new problem to me, but chances are the real fix will work if someone can share it.  Any one know?  Thanks!

  • IPod Touch (5th Gen) and iOS 6.0.1 Update

    I'm having some problems with upgrading my iPod Touch (5th Gen) to iOS 6.0.1.
    The iPod is currently stuck in the mode where it shows the connect to iTunes symbol. When I connect to it to iTunes on my MacBook Pro, I am asked to 'Restore and Update' which I click. The update file downloads, but as soon as it completes, it disappears and never installs. I then have no choice but to start again which results in exactly the same problem. I don't seem to be able to restore the iPod without downloading the latest software.
    Does anyone have any advice?
    Thanks.

    Try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
