Shutting down my iPod Touch

When shutting down my iPod Touch (not putting it to sleep), it turns black like usual, but shows the apple screen seconds after it turns off. What can I do? It has not turned off for weeks.

I have the same issue.

I have NOT found a solution. Also, my battery life is down to few hours in sleep mode. Does your battery also drain fully overnight?

While performing a system update, I shut down my iPod touch. Can the pictures on my iPod be recovered if my iPod was not backed up?

While performing a system update, I shut down my iPod touch. Can the pictures on my iPod be recovered if my iPod was not backed up?
iPod is fourth generation, the system update was a little over half complete.
I want to get the pictures off the iPod so that I can keep them. Is there any way to do this?

Maybe,
- if when you connect the iPod to your computer you can make a backup? If yes yo can restore from that backup
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
- Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backup dated when you started the update. the first stiep of an update is iTunes making a backup.
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

WindowsXP shuts down when iPod Touch 2nd gen 8gb is connected

Everything was operating fine for the first day I was using my new iPod Touch. on the second day, I think I might have disconnected the iPod too early? The iPod itself is currently operating normally, however, every time I connect it to my PC/iTunes, the PC shuts down, then goes to the HP blue screen- the one that gives the "Esc, F1 and F8" options.
I restart and Windows says it has recovered from a serious error and wants to send the report.
PC is ok until connection w/Ipod.

Send the report and then wait while XP connects and tells you what the error is then you can "fix" it.
You can also check Event Viewer to find out the error. I'm guessing you messed up Apple Mobile Device Support and may have done something to the Windows usb drivers but only the error report can tell you for sure.
It might have nothing to do with your iPod or it might have everything to do with it but we can't help until we know what it is.
As for disconnecting iPods, wait till iTunes it says OK to disconnect and then use that arrow icon to do it. That will avoid all sorts of problems in the future.
If you want to end the sync early use the slider on the iPod (the one that reads cancel sync) and then use the disconnect arrow icon when you get the OK form iTunes.

Automatic shutting down of ipod touch 5Gen

Just now i checked my ipod touch and suddenly i cannot open it. Possibility it was automatically shoutdown. Don't know what to do. Please help me.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore

Set auto shut down for iPod touch after period of inactivity

I keep falling asleep with my iPod on. My old MP3 player had a setting where it automatically shutdown after a specified period of inactivity. Is there a download or setting of some sort that will make the ipod touch do the same?

I can't try it out for you now and don't know if it's on 2.x, but read p. 32 of the IPT manual under Sleep Timer. The option is under the Clock -> Timer on the Home menu. If the feature is still there...
Here's a link to the online manual:

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Qosmio F10 shut down when I touch it

Hi everybody
Since yesterday, I've a problem with my F10.
It quite paranormal, so i give you the facts.
- the computer shut down when I touch it (when I close the screen, or touch it at bottom left)
- after that, the alimentation light flicks with this scheme:
1 long (blank) 6 shorts (Blank) and 1 long
- to shut up again, I must remove the battery and the alimentation, wait a little, and it can shut up again.
I've installed no updates, no software, and it looks like to be motherboard problem...
Naturally, it is not under warranty anymore...
So if you have answers !!
Thank's
Eric

I can't logon with Eric4, but it doesn't matter.
So, ok, I phoned to Toshiba Fr who saied me it was an electrical problem, and i should bring the computer to us.
So, I decided to take a screewdriver, and I opened the computer. I've used a dry spray, and I closed the box.
So, there's no problem anymore. I don't know the word in English, but I think it was a small metal dust on the motherboard.
Thank you for your help (but I must particulary thank my screewdriver).

Handing down an ipod touch

This must be somewhat common but I can't seem to find the right post to answer the question. My daughter is handing down her ipod touch to my son, as she just got a new iphone 4. I can't seem to find a model number, but she got it in summer 2009. She had it synced with her macbook pro. My son's itunes library is on a Windows XP PC. Since it is within family, wiping passwords, etc. is not the problem, but I'm trying to determine how I can wipe her music and essentially restore it so that it can be synced with a new library on a different PC. I don't want to mess it up beyond repair, and she didn't have an extended service plan, so I'm on my own. Any help you can provide will be much appreciated. Thank you.

However, some posted either early day or yesterday that restoring to factory defaults still resulted in the original owners iTunes account popping up asking for a password when trying to download an app. So just be careful. You might also then try erasing all content and setting in Settings>General>Reset. The users guide says it may take awhile so have either fully charged or charging during the erase.

PC shuts off when Ipod Touch is connected. Detects "Digital Still Camera"

My Ipod Touch was working fine until today. I plugged it into my PC and then it detects it as a "digital still camera". Then after a few seconds my PC will completely shut down.
The weird thing is that once it restarts with the Ipod connected already it will detect it as an Ipod and Itunes will open and everything normally. If I then disconnect it and connect it again, it will be detected as a camera again and again shut down.
I've looked all over the inter for solutions. Most of them involve updating the driver. But I cannot update the driver unless the device is connected. And when the device is connected as a "digital still camera" it will shut down my computer.
I tried booting in safe mode and then connecting the Ipod Touch and it worked fine. It detected it as an Ipod and everything worked fine. My plan was to boot in safe mode and then update the driver but I couldn't because it detected it normally.
I would normally try turning off some services to see if something it bothering it but I don't want to ruin my computer by consistently shutting it down unexpectingly and giving me errors each time it reboots.
I've seen other people online with this problem but none with a solution. I would really appreciate some help. Thank you

Mine is doing the same thing,I got it 2 days ago worked fine but today everytime i plug in the desk top it will shut it down. I plug it to my lap top it worked but i'm affraid that it will do the same thing again after a while. I have a feeling that there is some problem with itunes, if my computer is the problem why did it work fine at the begining.When I uninstalled the itunes and plug the ipod it starts charging but the computer did not shut down. I did some research and it seems that a lot of people having the same problem.

Shut off screen without shutting down accelerometer in Touch

Due to Apple firmware limitations in the 2G iPod Touch, it is not possible to shut down the Touch screen and keep the accelerometer running, so running the Sleep Cycle application on the iPod Touch causes the screen to stay on all night and become very warm
Apple please please could you change the Touch firmware to support shutting off the screen without shutting down the accelerometer so that Sleep Cycle can be run on the Touch like it now runs on the 3G and 3GS iPhone.
This would open this excellent little application to the whole Touch market segment, making the developers very happy and allowing me to get up in the morning.

Why does my WindowsXP shut down when myiPod Touch 2nd gen 8gb is connected?

I originally posted this as a topic, but not sure now if that was the right way to go about finding a solution...I'm new here, pardon me.
So,
Everything was operating fine for the first day I was using my new iPod Touch. on the second day, I think I might have disconnected my iPod too soon? The iPod itself is currently operating normally, as is my PC however, every time I connect it to my PC/iTunes, the PC shuts down, then goes to the HP blue screen- the one that gives the "Esc, F1 and F8" options.
I restart and Windows says it has recovered from a serious error and wants to send the report.
PC runs ok until re-connection w/Ipod. Weird, eh? Can someone please help me?

Usually, this indicates a driver conflict or USB port conflict. See this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1502
If you have anything else connected via USB try disconnecting it and syncing.

ITunes shutting down when iPod is connected...

I am having trouble getting my installation of iTunes to recognize that there is an iPod connected. My 5th Gen iPod Video can be connected to Windows no problem, I am able to access it as a disk drive, etc, get all the drivers for Windows to install, etc...however, when I start iTunes, the problem excperiences an unexpected error and is needed to shut down immediately.
iTunes is able to start, error free when my iPod is not connected via the USB port - only happens when an iPod is connected during iTunes' start up and when one is connected after iTunes has been started.
Any ideas as to how this can be solved?

With a call to a friend of the family who deals with Apple related troubleshooting, was able to Hard Format the iPod as a FAT32 disk drive and have iTunes recognize it in "recovery mode", allowing me to start iTunes and repair the disk.

IMac shuts down when I touch the computer

I am working on a relatively new iMac 20" Core Duo (circa July 2006). The problem is whenever I touch the side of the cpu/monitor in order to gain a better view of the screen the computer instantly shuts down. At first I thought I was mistakenly touching the power button located in the back, but there has been an instance where I merely poked the top front of the cpu and the same things happens. It instantly shuts down. This issue just started happening within the last day and prior to this I have had no problems with this computer. I think the power button could be out of whack, but I'm also told it could be an electrostatic issue. I have the computer plugged into a surge protector so, I know the problem can't be coming from there. Any insight into this problem will be greatly appreciated.

Ok, I understand everything but the RAM part. You
could not have added VRAM yourself, only ordered it
special, so that is still as you received it from
Apple. Since you received the iMac, if you added
SDRAM, you'll have to remove that and operate your
iMac with only original RAM. If you no longer have a
problem, then the problem is with the added SDRAM.
If your problem only shows up after using Office for
Mac, is it possible that you're using a registered
version without first removing the trial version? If
you have both on your iMac at the same time, just
drag the trial folder to the trash and delete it.
I'm sure you already know that kernel panics can be
the result of either hardware or software issues.

I did not add any SDRAM. The SDRAM came as it was standard. The extra VRAM was due to a special order from Apple. I am also aware of the Office for Mac, that cannot be, because like I said below, I am having the same problems after erasing and reinstalling OSX.

ITunes shuts down when ipod is connected....

Ever since I did the last update, everytime I connect my ipod to synch with itunes...itunes automatically shuts down!! I can use itunes just fine by itself and the same for the ipod. But once I connect them itunes just shuts down...no error message, nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this??

This has started happening to me in the past week since i uploaded the latest Apple install on vista.
Itunes will work on its own but soon as i plug in my new nano it shuts down within seconds.
This is typical of Apple.....until hundred of complaints are registered they never get off their F~~~~ing arses and solve the problems

ITunes shuts down when iPod connects

Well i bought the new 5th Generation iPod and when i connect it, it shuts down the whole iTunes. I tried it on another windows vista computer, and same issue. Works fine with MAC. But I dont want to buy another computer. ASSISTANCE?

Head into your Problem Reports and Solutions control panel, and go into your Problem History. Look for iTunes problem reports generated at the same time as the ipod-plugging-in incidents. Open them up and have a look at the details. Are they all saying the same thing? If so, paste the contents of a typical report into a reply here so we can have a look at it.
