IPod Touch Hard Crash Using Safari?

I just purchased a brand new iPod Touch 4th Gen a couple of days ago. Nothing has even been put on the Ipod, I've actually only used it for surfing the internet. I have already read up on Ipod resets and Safari kicking people back out to the Dashboard, however mine was a little different and I'm a little concerned.
I was on Facebook, and the system just went to a straight black screen. The screen remained black and the Ipod wouldn't respond. Sleep/Wake did not work, and neither did the Power/Lock to return the system back on. I plugged the Touch into a Mac and PC via usb but not connection was made. I also tried to power the Ipod in the wall mount but that did not work as well.
Finally, I restarted the system with a hard boot and got the system up and running.
What my main concern is that I haven't come across this problem yet and worried that there may be an issue with the Ipod. Usually crashes will bring you back to the Dashboard, however this was a nasty crash.
Is this normal or should I return it to Apple?
Thank you for any advice

I doubt if it is the magnets but it is more likely that case is pushing on the Sleep/Wake button. I don't believe the gen 1 and gen 2 iPods are the same size.
You can test the magnet theory by turning your iPod on and moving the magnets over the device.

Safari crashes itself and music in iPod touch

A lot of the time when I try to use Safari on my iPod, it will crash, and if I'm listening to music it turns that off too. Sometimes it takes me to the home screen, other times if I've closed Safari after using it and turn the screen off while still listening to music it will turn my music off and move where my screen was within the music app thing. Like just a few minutes ago I was listening to a song under a certain band and album category, and when I stopped using Safari, so did the music, and when I reopened the music screen it was in the "Playlist" section.
As well, Safari seems to run ridiculously slowly even though I know my internet connection is good.
Any suggestions as to what the problems are and what I could do about them?

You need to first try the standard fixes. Move to the next one if the problem persists
- Reset your iPod
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
- Restore your iPod from backup via itunes on your computer
- Restore you iPod to factory defaults/new iPod

Max12345281, since the poster says he has iOS 4.1.2 he very likely has a 2G iPod and those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

See Here for
Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore...
Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the iPod On...
If that does not help... See Here:

Reset ipod touch (2nd gen) and now safari is missing. What now?

Reset ipod touch (2nd gen) and now Safari is missing. What now?

Don't despair Look at "Vintapps" in the Apple app store. It has tons of available apps for all those earlier ios devices. And you can download them right to your ios device. Many are free.
Although I wrote this 99 cent app specifically to help solve this problem, I need to add that "I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link."
Be sure to keep backups of older software. Once an app is updated, the older version is no longer available to be downloaded from Apple.

4G 40GB iPod deleted my songs after a soft reset

I've been resetting my iPod quite often because of skipping, freezing and everybody's favorite - the clicking hard drive. I ran the diagnostic test on it and it passed all phases of it. However, during a soft reset this morning, the iPod turned on as if it had been turned on for the first time - asking to select a language, etc. AND all my songs are off the iPod. Thank God they're still on iTunes on my PC. Any ideas what's up with it? I just ordered a replacement hard drive from eWiz and I plan to replace it once I get it.

Hi RR29,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Soft Reset? Compared to a Hard Reset?
How exactly did you do it? Curious.
"I just ordered a replacement hard drive from eWiz and I plan to replace it once I get it."
Be careful! I would hate for something awful to happen to your iPod when you change the battery. Are you having battery troubles? Maybe I can help.

Itunes, ipod, photos and cotracts not working after safari crash

My Iphone is about 2 weeks old. It was working fine until 2 days ago. I was browsing when safari crashed. I restarted safari and continued surfing. Later I went into ipod to listed to some music. The songs were on the screen but the ipod game an "unable to play" message. I shut down the iphone and started it up again. This time when I try to go into ipod it just crashes back to the spring board. when I click on Itunes it does the same thing. I clicked on photos and there no photos. turned on the camera and took a couple of Pictures. I looked at the camera roll and they showed up as just outlines of blank icons. Cicking on the icons gives an all black screen. Going out of the camera then into photos shows no pictures.
I called Tech support and was told to do a restore. I then plugged the Iphone into the dock and was not recognized by itunes. Interestingly Iphoto does recognize it but not itunes.
I am baffled at this point.

By any chance did you buy any music from the iTunes wifi store before this happened? I am having problem that sounds similar; but in my case the iPod function shows "no content", and all photos are gone; but notes, calendar and contacts are intact. I also cannot get iTunes to recognize my iPhone to do a sync or restore.

IPod Keeps 'Soft Resetting'

I have a 16GB Green IPod Nano.
The problem is this: As i am listening to music, the IPod will randomly 'soft reset' itself. It does this pretty often, every couple of songs. It will happen at different points in the song, so its not just when a new song starts. This problem is getting pretty annoying.
I've tried troubleshooting by soft-resetting and doing a full "restore to factory settings". Still having the problem.
Is there a solution to this problem?

It also can reset when i press one of the buttons, or move the hold switch to off.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Ignore the reset and when it says plae the iPod in Recovery mode
Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
or
http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
and
RecBoot tip
RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:
Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
Installs blootware on PC too
- 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 another cable
- 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.

Safari crashed - Now keeps restoring all info from date of crash - Unable to reset

Hi There
My Safari crashed back in April and the restore function saved all the open web sites, history, cookies, settings etc from that day. Every time I restart my computer my Safari goes back to the April settings which is very annoying.
I have tried to reset safari, erase everything but this has not worked. Safari also goes back to April settings after opening it after a Force Quit.
I have also tried clicking the box for opening up previous applications upon restart in the hope that it will remeber the settings and applications open up at the time but this is not functioning as it is mean't to.
Any suggestions or assistance would be appreciated.

Read this whole message before doing anything.
Back up all data.
Quit Safari if it’s running. Then select  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar. A small window will open with a list of running applications. Safari may appear in that list, even though you quit it. If so, select it and press return. Close the window.
Step 1
Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.Safari
Caches/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess
Caches/Metadata/Safari
Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginHost.plist
Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess.plist
Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
Leave the Library folder open. Try Safari again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
Step 2
If you still have problems, quit Safari again.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
rm -fr $TMPDIR../C/com.apple.Safari
Quit Terminal. Launch Safari and test.
Step 3
If Safari still doesn’t work right, quit, go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop (some may not exist):
Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
Preferences/com.apple.WebFoundation.plist
PubSub/Database
Safari
(Note: you are not moving the Safari application. You’re moving a folder named “Safari.”)
Try again. This time Safari should perform normally, but your settings and bookmarks will be lost.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Safari again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were, overwriting the newer ones that will have been created in their place. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in step 1. Stop here and post again.
If Safari is now working normally (apart from the lost settings), look inside the “Safari” folder on the Desktop for a file named “Bookmarks.plist”. Select File ▹ Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from that file. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the items you moved to the Desktop.
Note: This step will remove your Safari Extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to restore them, do so one at a time, testing after each step to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
If you don’t like the results of step 3, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you moved or deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place.
