Why does my Ipod ask me to double tap to open everything.

All of a sudden I have a voice telling me what each button is when I click on it....I have to double tap to open any app and my screen won't slide.  Anyone know how to fix this?

Go to Settings - General - Accesability - VoiceOver = Off. Note you will need to use 3 finger method to scroll to some menu items.

  • If I delete a song on my iTunes, why does my iPod ask me if I want to transfer it back?

    I get a message during synch of my iPod (Classic) that says "there are purchases on your iPod that are not found in your iTunes library - do you want to transfer these?" This always makes me paranoid that maybe I have songs I want on my iPod that somehow aren't in my library, so I used to say "yes"....but then after a while, it seemed apparent that what was "missing" from my library are songs I have purposely deleted.  So then I was going through this endless loop of deleting, then transfering back, then deleting, then transfering back, then deleting......
    So, my question is: if I delete a song or game or whatever in my iTunes library, shouldn't it then just remove it from the iPod?  As I mentioned above, I find it confusing/alarming when it starts asking me if I want to transfer stuff back from my iPod.  Not sure how to tell what it is that it wants to transfer back?  Is there any setting that would tell iTunes that when something is deleted in the library, go ahead and delete it from the iPod?
    Thanks!

    If there a way where I won't have to delete it?
    I have these on my phone, ipad, home computer, and work computer.  If I listen to something, then I may have to delete 2 or 3 times on all these devices.
    Thanks

  • Why does my iPod ask for a activation from my old Apple ID?

    I got a new charger for my iPod and it was stuck in a recovery loop, and now when I restored it it asks for my little brothers Apple ID and we don't know what it is.
    Please don't say useless stuff like oh you can't do it

    That is the activation- lock anti-theft feature

    You will have to get your brother to enter his password.

  • Why does it keep asking for my password ?

    Why does it keep asking for my password when i open the APP STORE ? Theres no updates and i aint downloading anything. Any help ? Thanks.

    It shouldn't really ask you anything. One way to possibly forestall this from happening again would be to register and enter your own ID and password. The system won't ask you for anything else, since it has all the user info it needs.
    When is it asking you questions? When the App Store opens? When you click on hyperlinks to documents?

  • Why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs?

    I had my iPod Shuffle for about a month now and it's already causing me trouble.
    I would play a couple of songs, but when I go to change it, it stops working. I turn it off and on again only to have it take me back to where I started off at (e.g. Let's say I have 100 songs, I start at 50 and I get to 55 before it shuts off. When I turn it back on, it starts at 50 all over again). This process would happen over and over again with seemingly no end.
    So my question is, why does my iPod Shuffle stop working after a few songs and how can I fix it?
    I already tried using the iTunes troubleshooting guide, but nothing worked.
    Details -
    4th Generation
    I only use it at the gym or when I'm running
    I've only used the Apple products that came with it so far
           (e.g. charger, headphones, etc.)
    881 MB are still left
    Music stops randomly, no common number or pattern

    I had the same problem, I purchased a new ipod shuffle, followed the instructions but it would stop after a few songs and I would have to shut it off, wait and turn it back on and it would go back to the same song and then once again, after a few songs it would shut off. I returned the ipod and got another one, same thing happened. This is how I resolved the issue.
    1. open itunes, make sure its up to date, then connect your shuffle to your pc
    2.on the left of the itunes window, select your ipod, then at the top select music then check the sync box and select "selected playlists"
    3.then go back and click on your ipod on the left, a message will appear just select apply
    all of your music should be emptied from your ipod.
    4.delete all of your playlists on the left, this will not delete anything from your library. Delete the "purchased" playlist under itunes store on the left as well, once again this will not delete anything from your library
    5.There should be an arrow just in front of your ipod, click on this arrow and you should see your music file for the ipod appear, this should be the only file that you see, everything else should be deleted.
    6. go to your music library and check only the songs that you want to load into your ipod. Double click on each song to make sure that they all play.
    If you find a song that does not play you should be asked to authorize it, don't waste your time that did not solve the issue for me, instead cancel to authorize the song and then delete the song and move it to recycle bin. Once the song is deleted a cloud should appear, click on the cloud and download the song again, when done, make sure the song plays and that it is checked.
    7.After you have made sure that all of the songs play and are checked, click on your ipod once more, located to the left, check the box  "sync only checked songs" then from the top select music. In the music window select "sync music' and then select "entire music Library"
    8. Go back to the left and click on the arrow in front of your ipod, you should see the music file, click on the music file and you should see all of your music being loaded to your ipod.
    9. When all of the music is done loading, eject your ipod by clicking on the arrow located after the battery symbol where your ipod appears on the left
    10. Turn on your ipod and scroll through your songs to make sure that the problem is resolved.
    Not sure if all of this was necessary but it worked for me.

  • Why does my ipod touch 4gen keeps going back to home page when browsing on the apps store

    Why does my Ipod touch 4 generation keeps going back to home page when browsing in the apps store.
    I called apple 5 times today and asked me to restore it 3x the problem still exists. This problem starts to occur yesterday after upgrading to IOS6.
    Apple customer service is not good enough as they cannot fixed the problem or tell me that I can change the unit as I just bought this 2 months ago.

    Because there is a bug in iOS 6 that effects the 4G iPod touch.

  • Why does my iPod keep on crashing when I run high memory apps?

    Why does my iPod keep on crashing when I run high memory apps? I have a 32 gb 4th gen iPod Touch with only 11gb used, and I currently run 6.1.5 Everytime I run a high memory app, without fail it crashes. These apps include but are not limited to instagram, infinity blade, subway surfer, gmail, clear vision 3, dropbox, and even Safari has crashed on multiple occasions. I tried resetting the settings and that seemed to work for about a day but now I'm back at square one.

  • Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear?

    Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear?  The computer seems to recognize it as a camera device, rather than a mass storage device.  Does this have anything to do with the problem?  When plugged in, a window pops up asking which photo program you'd like to use, and if you cancel, that's it.  Even if you try to open a photo program, and download your photos off of the ipod, it still won't show up in itunes.

    Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:
    iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes

  • Why does my ipod list songs in not the right order

    why does my ipod choose to mix the playing order of an album. no matter how many times i remove it from my ipod, when i put the album back on, it is played in a jumbled up order. i have asked itunes but they are ignoring me.

    It's likely that your iPod's headphone jack needs replacing.  You can opt to have Apple fix it for a pretty hefty price or you can look for a 3rd party repair company to do it instead.
    Either way, it might not be a bad idea to bring it into your local Apple store to see if there is anything they can do for you.

    Why does my ipod no longer play all the items in a playlist?  I have to go to each item individually to select it as it no longer goes from one item to the next.

    what kind of connection do you have? do you use the ipod 30 pin cable that connects directly to the head unit? it so, maybe you could get help on the alpine site, or a similar site?it could just be a bad connection. you may just have to go oldschool and use rca cables and plug those in...
