Rotation not working, lag (Music, iTunes store)

I got my iPod Touch for my birthday last year April - I'm guessing it's 3rd generation (No camera). A few months after I got it, I noticed that sometimes the rotation function (that portrait orientation thing) stops working; this was first noticed when I tried with watching Youtube videos. Now it refuses to work altogether. Also, the iPod lags to the point where it sometimes exits out to home screen, so I have to retry whatever I wanted to do. Usually this happens with Music, iTunes, App store, etc. I have also never jailbroken the iPod.
Yes, I know about the Portrait Orientation lock. Toggling that doesn't do anything.
I'm guessing that for problems like this, the usual solution would be to restore back to the "New" settings. I've read around a little, and heard cases where resetting didn't completely solve the problem. In fact, I'm hesitant as to whether I should even do a restore since I've done one before, and while it fixed the portrait rotation function at first, it started acting up again within days.
Right now I'm restoring the iPod because I finally have the time. If restoring doesn't work, do I have to go to the Apple Store? What if I don't have warranty (I'm not sure whether the warranty extends past a year; my mom bought this for me)? I can't afford a new iPod.
Edit: I just reset my iPod and it looks like the rotation function is still broken.

I'm having the same exact issue.  Did the restore from a backup and it was good for about a week.  Only difference is I'm on iOS 4.3.3 (iPod Touch 3rd Generation).  I'm surprised there isn't more talk of this as it seems like it should be more of a common occurance?  I tried reset all settings only as someone suggested on another forum but that had no affect...seems to be software related though.

  • "Complete my season" is not working for my iTunes store?? I keep getting an error message saying the iTunes store is unavailable over a week or more??

    My itunes store is acting kinda funny...
    When I click on "complete my seasons" under TV shows I keep getting an error message telling me:
    "The itunes store is unavailable at this time" this has been going on for over a week or longer.
    Any idea how to fix this or why it keeps telling me the itunes store is unavailable?? I have signed in an out and still I can not see all the seasons of TV shows I have purchased.
    Thanks,
    Max

    Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!

  • itunes:order tag is not working in the iTune Store Podcast Page!

    I used <itunes:order> tag in my podcast rss file and the items sort correctly when I subscrbe to my podcast (rss file) directly from iTune. However, after submitting and publishing the feed to iTune Store they are all out of order! Also about 30 of them are missing!!  How can I get them in the right order and add the other 30 to my podcast?

    It's not really possible to comment unless you would like to publish the URLs of both your feed and the Store page - this latter can be found by control-clicking on the podcast image (or where it should be) - and choosing 'Copy link'.  Please include the http:// in both cases to make the links clickable.

    My wishlist is not working in the app store on my ipad it is woking fine in itunes store so i can add films and music but the icon "add to wish list" is not available on the app store so does anyone know how to fix this 

    The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

  • ITunes RADIO is not working.  "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again." Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so -  iTu

    iTunes RADIO is not working.
    “iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
    iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
    Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio.  People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
    Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
    Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
    Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
    Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
    Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
    Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.
    ===============================================================
    NOTE:  no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
    Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.
    Apple store id It works via direct internet connetion but not through iTunes.  Very strange.

    Thanks
    Andy

    I've been having this problem for weeks and have found no solution to it. There are lots of other people with this issue too if you look back on the boards. I even e-mailed AND called Apple and have had no luck. I tried all the suggestions they gave me and all the ones I found on here- nothing worked. I even uninstalled and re-installed iTunes (boy was that a pain!) and no difference.
    The weird part is that I have an old laptop that works and if I buy music with the laptop I can download it with my regular computer buy buying does not work on my regular computer. That tells me it's not a connection issue. I can't get to my account either.
    I can't figure out why an issue that has kept so many people from purchasing a product has been ignored!

  • Using a Mac, OSX 10.6.8; My internet connection is working properly, yet I get the following message in iTunes:  "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unkown error occurred (-54)."

    Using a Mac, OSX 10.6.8; My internet connection is working properly, I can reach all sites via browser, yet I get the following message in iTunes:  "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unkown error occurred (-54)."

    I have the same issue with almost exactly the same environment...
    iPhone4S (32GB) running iOS5.0
    Windows 7 Enterprise
    iTunes 10.5.2.11
    iPhone has been set up to wirelessly sync when on charge yet I get this error when the iPhone is not even charging!
    I work for a mobile network operator and although this isn't something we support anyway, we would usually stumble across something like this when customers call us for advice prior to contacting the manufacturer for support, yet this hasn't been a call driver so I'd imagine this is isolated... (either that or not many people have updated their device and set up the wireless sync lol)...
    Hey Apple! Any ideas? :-)

  • How do i move music from iphone to pc - not all downloaded from itunes store?

    how do i move music from iphone to pc - not all downloaded from itunes store?

    iTunes includes an option to transfer content that was purchased from the iTunes Store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for content that was purchased from the iTunes Store only.
    With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    This is one of the reasons why maintaining a backup of all your important data (including your iTunes library) stored on an external drive used for backup purposes only, or on other media such as CD or DVD is so important.

    Try deleting the cache associated with the App Store..
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Relaunch the App Store. See if that made a difference.

  • What a pain -on a mac-never had aproblem-loaded a new shuffle with music -will not let me sync itunes store bought songs-will not let me authorize the computer. I have a ipod as well. Is this a block when loading a second device? OR?

    What a pain -on a mac- never had aproblem- loaded a new shuffle with music - will not let me sync itunes store bought songs- will not let me authorize the computer. I have a ipod as well. Is this a block when loading a second device? OR?

    In iTunes, do Store->View my AppleID
    Click "Deuthorize ALL"
    Then, on any computers you still have, do Store->Authorize this computer.  If there are less than 5, you will have no problem.
    You can only do "deauthorize all" once a year, so in the future, if you ever throw a computer away, remember do to "Store->Deauthorize this computer" first.

  • ITunes Gift Card and now "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store."

    My wife was using my computer yesterday and was entering in a gift card number that I gave her. Well, the card had a number missing or something and she tried all types of combinations. After some time she showed me an error (-50 if I recall) and since then I get "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    It had been working for weeks. So now, I tried a few other applications to get some more information and I found this:
    Failed 'authorizeMachine':null
    So, can someone tell me what to do, or remove my MAC address from Apple's iTunes store anti-scripting program
    Please email me with a resolution.
    Nicolas

    Me too. I upgraded to 7.02 iTunes. It hasn't happened before till the new upgrade. I'm using Windows 2000. I even renamed My Music, iTunes and iPod to "Old" and reinstalled the disc that came with my iPod Nano. It still will not connect. Make sure your Firewall is not being used while trying to connect. Or your ISP is probably prohibiting use to iTunes Music Store. Maybe a Anti-Virus Software program.
    If Apple is trying to fix their bugs due to the new upgrade the are giving, they need to give free music for the inconvenience of their customers not being able to connect. My internet connection is active. My husband is a network guru and even he is surprised it doesn't work. Maybe my Hughes.net ISP is prohibiting use. We are trying everything.
    Good Luck to everyone. If you find a solution that works, please email me. Thank you.

    "iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. The
    connection was reset.
    Make sure your network connection is active and try
    again."
    I wasn't getting this message yesterday, and my
    network connection is most certainly active. This is
    a problem plaguing every iTunes user I know, PC or
    Mac. What's going on here?
    I have tried on two consecutive evenings (15th and 16th) to purchase a song. I have purchased many songs from the iTunes Music Store over the past year. iTunes 6 has been installed for over a month and I have purchased songs since that installation. I have connected to the iTunes Music Store and can search and see results and information, but cannot get to purchase the song I have selected, or others that I find. When I select the "buy song" button I get the following message:
    "iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. An unknown error occurred (-9807). Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    Network connection is active. I can begin a new search and certainly by submitting this my network connection is active. Anyone else have an idea for us ? There was a security update recently that I downloaded. I wonder if this has changed things. I have checked my KeyChain and repaired some discrepancy using KeyChain First Aid, but this did not resolve the issue.
