Why does my ipod automatically reset itself when im listening to it?!

I will be clicking through songs and all of a sudden it just resets itself...and also if im fast forwarding through a song it also just resets it self.....everything it up to date so what is the problem
5th gen video   Windows XP  

You could reset iPod when scrolling trough songs very quickly, you might have pressed -MENY- by mistake while scrolling. Do not give Your iPod too much commands in same time, i'd bug myself if somebody push me round too much. It's a good machine but do not over do it.
Hope this helped

  • Why does my iPod keep resetting itself back to factory setting when I sync it to iTunes?

    I got a new mackbook air and I had to restore my iPod nano to get it to sync to it. But now everytime I sync it, it will say syncing and then ready to disconnect but then it restarts itself to no music. I don't know why it's doing this...help!

    I would try restoring it in iTunes first. See if that clars it up.

  • 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.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
    - 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.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    - 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.

  • Why does my Ipod say its charging when it isn't reseaving any power?

    I read every article on the support part of the apple website and nothing could help me. My Ipod touch is a 3rd generation and has 32 gigs, if thats relavent at all. So, my Ipod has a picture of a dead battery with a lightning bolt on it, and it only shows when its charging. The apple support said that picture means that the Ipod is charging, but is so dead that it cannot function, and to let it charge for 30 minutes and it should be better. It sat on a wall charger (a usb outlet that is plugged into the wall) for 3 days now and theres been no progress. So why does my Ipod say its charging when it isn't reseaving any power?
    I've tried 2 wall chargers, and tried connenting it to all three of my computers, and tried about 4 differant charger cords. On all of them the Ipod says its charging, but it isn't getting any charge. So I don't believe its a severed power cord. I have also reset it a few times, and it won't show the apple sign, only the same battery/lightning picture.

    It could also be the charging circuit in the iPod. The Genius Bar is free. You could try to replace the battery yourself but that may not fix it.
    This site provides instructions and where to get parts.

  • Ipod constantly resetting itself when plugged into Itunes.

    My new 5G 80gig Ipod constantly resets itself when I plug it into Itunes. Any ideas? The Ipod is new...

    Here's what I've done so far unsuccessfully:
    Placed it into disk mode, but it does the same thing. Once plugged into the computer the ipod is recognized by both windows and Itunes but it resets itself within 30 seconds. It constantly keeps resetting itself.
    Also, since it keeps resetting itself, and therefore disappears form itunes, I cannot reformat/hardreset it via Itunes....

  • HT1320 why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer

    why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer

    It's not a "fix," actually.  If that is a 4th gen iPod connected using USB, you need to do what it says and plug it in to the white square power adapter that originally came with those models.  Later Apple power adapters should work; third-party adapters may or may not work.  It has something to do with voltage.  The USB connection to computer does not provide the required voltage (although it's obviously fine for normal syncing and charging).
    If that iPod is connected to a FireWire port, it apparently provides the required voltage, because that step does not come up during the Restore.  That model was a transition between iPod connecting to FireWire and connecting to USB.  Earlier models required FireWire.  Later models only used USB.
    If you don't have an adapter, and there is an Apple Store nearby, I guess you could take it to the store's Genius Bar.  I'm sure they have a power adapter there, to complete the Restore.  (Just don't let them re-do the Restore on a Mac, if you use a Windows PC. Different storage formatting.)

  • Why does my ipod touch keep charging when im not charging it ex. 77%  78% help me please

    why does my ipod touch keep charging when im not charging it ex. 77%  78% help me please

    All batteries recover a bit when they sit for a little while.  Also most iPod battery apps register only in 5% increments, because it is hard to really be accurate to the single percent.  Just because yours shows in 1% increments does not mean it is actually accurate to that level.

  • Why does the iPod starts by itself?

    When I plug the earphones into my iPhone 3G, the iPod automatically starts playing songs. Why does that happen then?

    - By restore itsself do you mean that it erases itself and then either sets ups as a new iPod or restores from a iCloud backup or backup on yur computer?
    - You also say that "how can i just make my ipod a hotspot or something?"
    The iPod does not have celluar connectivity so it has to use wifi to connect to the internet. When you first get a new iPod yu can set it up via wifi or by connecting it to a computer that is connected to the internet. Has the iPod been setup already?

  • Why does my iPod keep resetting on IOS 8?

    Since I updated to IOS 8 around this time last week, my iPod Touch 5th gen has crashed 3 times. To reset it I have had to plug it in to my computer, which is inconvenient when I am in lectures all day and my iPod stops working first thing in the morning, or when the alarm doesn't go off because it has tried to reset itself in the middle of the night.
    What am I supposed to do to stop it from refusing to work? I have had only one occurrance of this over the last 2 years and that's because it overheated, which it definitely is not doing now.

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.

  • My ipod keeps resetting itself when i plug it in to the computer, now what?

    Basically, I plugged my ipod into my laptop as usual and itunes sprang up with an error message that i can't quite remember. I just remember that it mentioned a file corruption and that i should either restore the ipod settings or i should disconnect and reconnect it. I reconnected it and got the same result, then tried again. This time iTunes didn't recognise it all and within a minute of being connected my ipod reset itself. The laptop registers it, but my ipod just keeps resetting itself and i don't know what to do. I've tried resetting it and restoring default settings, so what more can i do or is a repair the only option?

    Follow the steps mentioned in this article to disable the camera notification: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1501 , then try again to connect to iTunes.

  • Why does Graphics Toolbar continually reset itself?

    I have used FM since version 5, but since FM9, the Graphics Toolbar continually resets itself to the defaults so that you need to constantly set the various tools that you use the way that you want them (color RED, line 3pt, line with arrow at one end, etc).
    Is this a bug? Or is there a way to make it stay the way that you set it? I use this Toolbar all through the work day, and it gets very irritating to have to constantly change how I want it.

    Nope, unfortunately never been able to do that. I use the Graphics Toolbar sporadically while documenting manuals. It will be OK for multiple times of using it, then the next time that I need to use it, Bingo--I see that it has reset everything back to defaults. To determine what causes it, I would have to watch it after absolutely everything that I do, which I've actually tried to do. It doesn't seem to happen by simply saving a file or opening another file while the one that I'm working on is still open.
    It could be an insidious bug that is caused by the user performing a series of steps and not just one thing. In any event, I'm surprised that no one else has experienced this. Am I simply a more prolific user of the Graphics Toolbar and, thus, prone to stumbling on a hidden bug?

  • Why does my iPod automatically adjust it's volume setting when I plug in different headphones?

    So, I frequently switch between a pair of earpods and a different type of headphone, and when I switch, my iPod volume control self-adjusts.  What is it doing?  Is it something to do with imedance?
    Thanks!
    Jason

    Hello,
    Apple has a profile for each headphone you just put. When you plug a pair of headphones, and you don't change the volume, the volume changes itself to the previous time you putted the same headphones. This happen because the profile saves itself in a cache inside the Apple filesystem. If there were no cache, everytime you connect a pair of headphones, you will **** your ears. So that's the problem here.
    Cheers.

    If it is still acting up after a restore, you more than likely nave a hardware issue.
