Weird Problem With My Ipod. Can you help?

I'm having a weird problem with my ipod and I hope someone here can help. I have a Nano, 4 GB. I got it back in June, so I haven't even had it 6 months yet. Ever since I "updated" the software, it hasn't worked right. It kept freezing on me and saying I had no songs on it. Finally when I reset it through iTunes and loaded brand new songs in it, it froze half way loading. I loaded it for a 3rd time and now it's making a weird alarm sound for no apparant reason. The buttons are stuck and I can't shut it off. It just keeps making this sound and it won't stop. When I reset it by holding menu & select, it resets, is fine for about 20 seconds, then starts back with this alarm. Is there anyone that can help me with this?

Mine was the similar condition.
When I reset iPod nano by holding menu & select, it resets, is fine for about 20 seconds, then starts back to the screen of black and white state.
It keeps endless loop.
It happened on the way of iPod nano firmware update to 1.1.1. from 1.0.2.
Instead of completing firmware updated, the above symptom happend in my case.
I could exit the above condition by pressing both of SELECT &
PLAY button 5-10 seconds long.
It manually change DISK Mode.
The following subject was useful for me.

    The 4Gs hardware, only 256 MB of RAM, prohibits updating beyond 6.1.6.
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

    Thank you for posting your list of installed Extensions. One of them might be intercepting the menu command. Since you have the Add-on Compatibility Reporter, it's possible that an older add-on that doesn't actually work well with Firefox 5 could be to blame. Could you try disabling the "HP Smart Web Printing" extension and see whether that makes any difference?
    Also, you can simulate a print button on a web site by pasting this to the location bar and pressing Enter. You also can save it as a bookmark for easier access (when scripts are saved as bookmarks, we call them bookmarklets). Hopefully you won't need it for long.

  • Problems with iphone 5.Can you help?..since apple wont.

    Ok. My mum bought this brand new iphone 5 from a chainstore here in Norway. It has never worked properly. Each night it totally hangs up and is unusable.
    The screen gets matrix like and there is a text saying "Panic.we are hanging in here". I have lots of apple products. And i have searched around a bit. I have figured out that this often happens with jailbreaked phones. Well this phone is not. And the store waits for apple to respond. I've tried to call apple and they will not offer any help since the phone is bought in a chainstore and not directly from then. In the meantime my mum has a phone that is unusable and worth 900$.
    It kinda ****** me off also that apple does not give any support. I have bought quite an amount of apple products trough the years,and when we finally convinced my mother to switch to apple they give this ****** service. I am not impressed.
    -But since they do not answer,maybe anyone of you can help me? I have tried the two options of reseting and also hit the round/top buttons all together.
    So...anyone?

    Hey there.
    I have reset it as suggested with itunes yester day. And it did not work.. i told her to take a pic of the phone screen when it locks.
    Any suggestions now? I think she will deliver it back to Spaceworld if there aren´t any other suggestions..
    Anyhow to you that suggested this is not a real problem.
    if you buy a phone to many hundreds of dollars..each night it locks itself and that screen above pops up. You cannot use the phone at all it before the screen dissapears. Also you carrier told you you switch off every internet options on the phone,because they cannot figure out what is wrong. So you cannot mms,or use mail or any internet option..Also you cannot ring with the phone nor text when it locks itself..
    If you do NOT call that a problem. I think YOU got a problem.
    My iphone sometimes doesn´t ring when i put my alarm on. THAT ****** me off. And that is a minor thing.
    To others that would care to help me...thanks really really a lot!!

  • Problems with Safari update: can you help please?

    Hi, the Software Updater recommended to update to Safari 4.0.3
    After I download it and clicked on Install, I got the following message:
    "The update “Safari” can’t be saved. You do not have appropriate access privileges. "
    After running the "Repair Disk Permissions" procedure of the Disk Utility (as suggested in a previous post) which found and repaired quite a number of permissions I tried to re-run the Safari update, but am getting exactly the same message as before.
    Since I am the administrator and the only user of this Mac, (running OS X 10.5) I am puzzled, especially since all other updates download and install without any problem. Any advice will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    Veit

    Thanks, Sig, for the quick response. I am presently downloading Safari 4 as you advised. Will install and report back.
    But would you know why the AUTOMATIC update did not work, i.e. resulted in these "you have no access privileges" message?

  • I have a problem with my Ipod, can anybody help me???

    I own a 30GB Video Ipod and when I placed my ipod charger into it I noticed that the screen began to cut off. Then i took the charger out and restarted the Ipod and i turned on. I then thought it was just a slight malfunction. I placed the charger back into the Ipod and when i did this, the Ipod cut off again. When I tried to turn the Ipod back on, it would not turn back on. I tried to plug the Ipod into the computer USB cord but to no luck. I then borrowed a friends charger, still no luck. I am not sure what happened, but hopefully the person reading this will. Please provide some help for my Ipod

    Have you tried holding the MENU and SELECT (center) buttons until you see the Apple logo to reset it?
    Cheers!

    You (or your kids) inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it.
    Any tips on how to stop it from happening?
    Yes. To learn how to avoid it in the future read How to install adware.
    If you require them, Apple's removal instructions are linked in the Recovery Procedure near the end of that document. Read and follow them carefully. Pay particular attention to the easily overlooked passages directing you to restart your Mac when required.

  • I have just changed to Firefox from IE. When i pull up my home page which is the BBC.co.uk I have always to reset my local region as it always defaults to London. I didn't have this problem with IE. Can you please supply a solution, thank you

    I fixed it!!! Following advice from similar posts, I searched the hard drive for "sessionrestore.js" in my Firefox Profiles folder (you'll need to enable viewing of hidden files in Windows Explorer (Tools > Folder Options > View (then select Hidden files option) then Apply to all folders) to do this). I then shut down Firefox, deleted the file and restarted - my home page was correct and it didn't try to open my old session! Some other posts suggested deleting everything called "sessionrestore" in that folder, but I didn't need to.

    I created an iCloud account for my sons ipod tried to sign into the App Store and it just keeps coming up with unknown error can you help

    Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
    Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages.  This should also sign you out of iCloud.
    Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
    If that does not work
    Skip the iCloud sign in
    Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
    Change your Apple ID to the old one
    Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
    Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
    Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password

  • Very weird problem with my iPod

    I have a 4th generation 40 GB iPod. I have a strange problem happening with my iPod. After it is fully charged I can use my iPod no problems, after what seams a random amount of time the screen seams to freeze and go pixely. The music plays fine but I can't go through any menus. After the battery dies I charge it and the screen is working again fine.
    Any ideas on why and how this happens would be great!

    dk07, glad to know I'm not the only one having this problem. I hope you can get it figured out as well. It is very frustrating.
    Jeff, I appreciate the links, but I've been over those first two quite a few times, with no success. The last one is a bit more interesting though.
    I guess what I mean to ask is; Is it possible that my iPod is actually charging all the way, even if I never get a "plug" icon and the bar never goes above 3/4 on the battery indicator, no matter how long I charge it? Can the battery indicator be 'that' off? I have yet to run into a help topic or tutorial that addresses specifically an iPod (with a brand new battery) never switching to the plug icon or never going beyond a 3/4 bar. I am willing to accept that the battery indicator may be inaccurate as to the actual charge, but the specific issues seem not to be as common as the general one; and that is what bugs me.

  • Phone broken: factory reset has lost connection with icloud. Can you help?

    I had a problem with my wi-fi.  It was a greyscale colour and would not let me sign on to wi-fi.  I took it to the shop and they said to do a factory re-set.  I did this but I cannot sign on to my icloud to retrieve my numbers and messages etc.  My wi-fi also still does not work.  I am very confused as I was just using wi-fi a few days ago with no problems. I also have been noticing the phone slowing down recently. When the battery gets to 20% and I go on my emails for example, it tends to just switch off, arghh! Can anyone help?

    Apps are developed by almost anyone and are vetted and approved by BB. If the app crashes, contact the app vendor. None of the Apps I have loaded have shown any problems.
    'The most recent OS' depends on your carrier releasing it. Rogers is still at 10.0.10.85
    AOL? Really? Search this forum for email issues. Some service providers have not upgraded to the latest standards and have problems with Z10 emails.
    I have never had a battery problem and I have had my Z10 since Day 1 in Canada. There were many reports of battery drain issues with the initial OS, but the last release seems to have fixed that.
    If you have battery issues, but you also have Apps that 'crash' I would suggest removing the Apps you have installed and run the device without them for a while, see if your battery performance changes. Some apps run all the time and consume much power using location services etc.
    Did you format the Flash card while installed in the device? I have a 32G card in mine and it is working fine. Perhaps try another card. Make sure you use one with a good speed rating.
