What problems interfere with the movement sensor on an iPod touch?

All movement controls on my iPod that are meant to control games such as temple run are not working. What do you think is wrong with my iPod?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings      
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:                                 
iOS: How to back up                                                                
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    If the iPod is defective and not under warranty
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    The sensor is on the logic board and is not replaceable.

  • When I try to play a song with the music app on my iPod Touch, some songs freeze at the beginning and my iPod touch becomes unresponsive to anything for up to twenty seconds.  Help?

    Hi all I'm new here.
         My issue goes something like this.  When I use the standard music app to play some of my music (MOST from Beatport) on about half of the songs, my iPod will freeze and become unresponsive for up to a half minute.  After that, it normally brings me back to the playlist song selection that I was looking at previously.  I have an iPod Touch 5th Generation that is running iOS 6.1.2.  I have only three playlists, but all of the three have over 500+ unique songs on them.  (I normally don't keep duplicates of songs on my iPod)  I started to have this problem when I upated my old iPod Touch 4th Generation to iOS 6.0.0.  Ever since I got that update, half of my songs have not and will not play.
    I have tried numerous times to reset my iPod (4th and 5th) and I even re-installed everything without using a backup.
    Any help as to what will fix my problem?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

  • How Do I Restore A Replacement iPod Touch With the Backup From A Previous iPod Touch?

    I recently received a replacement iPod Touch because of hardware issues with my previous one. I managed to back up my last iPod Touch with iCloud, I also recall using iCloud to restore it from backup after I first updated to iOS 5. All I'm looking to do is to restore everything exactly as it was (app data etc) on my last iPod before I had it replaced. Yet, when I attempt to restore it from back up, it restores with the wrong back up.

    See if the lnk given here helps:

  • Can you restore an already setup iPhone with the back up of an iPod touch

    I got my iphone and set it up at the store. If i was to restore it and use an ipod touch back up to get the app data. Would it keep the number or would i have to reset it up

    Makes no difference.
    If you want or need to restore your iPhone with iTunes, the current iOS version will be reinstalled.
    If you want to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to your iPhone, you must restore your iPhone with iTunes and when prompted, select restore from the backup for your iPod Touch as already provided.
    If there was another way, I would provide it.

  • Getting in touch with the original owner of my Ipod touch 5g

    Hi,
    So few days ago I purchased an Ipod Touch 5g from a local (Helsinki) police auction.
    At first everything was fine, but I ran in to problems when I decided to restore it, to get rid of all the data by the previous owner.
    Now the Ipod is asking for the Apple ID and password of the previous owner in order to activate the device.
    Is there any way of contacting the original owner? Maby by using the serial number?
    Do I need to get a court order?
    Thank you.

    Yes, the only way would be to get a court order and present it to Apple. I would say you would spend more for the lawyer that the iPod is worth. Likely the iPod was stolen or lost.If that case it would back to the original owner.

  • Is it possible to remove TV shows completely with the new ios7 from my iPod Touch? If so, how?

    My sister has a variety of uses for her iPod touch whereas I don't.
    I'm looking for a way to completely remove everything that's hers from my iPod; for example, TV shows and music videos that I have no interests in or use for.
    If you could please help I'd really appreciate it.
    Thank You!

    Try swiping the media left or right. A remove or delete button should appear.

  • What's happening with the bad sensors.

    on the iPhone 5s. When will Apple acknowledge it and what do you think they will do about it? Currently holding off on order.

    I don't have n answer, but I've seen this problem on all 4 of my iDevices on IOS 7. And sometimes I see no update badge on the app, but if I go into it and check updates I have some waiting.
    Honestly don't know if this is a bug in IOS or some carryover from last week when the servers were under extreme load. It's annoying though.

  • Streaming music, movies using airplay and ipod touch on Macbook

    I am not sure if this is possible but let me explain what I have with me.
    I own an ipod touch 2nd gen, MacBook and airport express base station. Now ipod touch has iOS 4.2.1.
    As title says, is it possible to stream music/movies from my ipod touch to macbook(instead of Apple tv). is it possible to use my macbook as an airplay device ? I know macbook doesn't comes with iOS, but I assume it is a superset of iOS.

    No....
    You can only use AirPlay at this time to stream to:
    1. Apple TV
    2. Airport Express
    3. Other compatible powered speakers

    I have lightroom 5 with 5.7 verson updated.  I use windows.  My problem is with the spot healer or remover in the develop.  It worked perfectly for a while and then suddenly the other circle with a line attached to it where you can move it to a better spot stopped showing up.  I uninstalled the software and re installed it again but it didn't fix the problem and its still the same.  Help please.

    Does the iPod work OK?
    Does it charge when connect to the computer?
    Does it appear in My Computer?
    Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1

    I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).
