Why does the iPod 4g freeze every 5 min ?

Why does the iPod 4g freeze every 5 min ? This is really annoying. I will choose Samsung next time if apple continue like this. Samsung is much better. I'm on iOS 6.1.5 (last update). Does apple do a bad a updat to force people de buy a new idevice. Personally I think this. It's not really good from apple

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.

  • Why does the new Itunes freeze/do nothing when i click on my Ipod touch icon ?

    Why does the new Itunes freeze when i click on my Ipod touch icon to manage my content? All buttones, video, tv, info, music, they all do nothing. i was only able to sync by bringing up the old sidebar. Is this a software glitch, or am i missing a step? I just spent two days reorganizing and labeling all my music for the new itunes, and had to restore my ipod so i could upload my new library. i know what is supposed to come up when you click on the music or info tabs, but nothing happens, only the eject button works. whats going on?

    The screen is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer with iTunes with the USB connector.  iTunes should open and give you instructions as to what to do.  Whatyou need to need to do is to restore the iPod via iTunes.

  • Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around?  Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen.  Is my mini possessed?

    Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps.  I reboot and still it happens.  Any suggestions?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, 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, 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, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Why does the iPod duplicate songs when updating my playlists?

    Why does the iPod duplicate songs when updating my playlists? Also, you cannot use the "show duplicate songs" feature on the iPod - I suppose that is because it is not supposed to duplicate songs on the iPod. But, if that is the case - why does it do it?

    Try resetting your iPod, press and hold the power and the home buttons together approximately 15 seconds until the Apple logo appears. If that does not work try going into Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. If that does not work try connecting to you iTunes library via the cable and un-sync the library from your iPod then sync the library.  For the next 2 options backup your iPod first, then do a Restore iPod from backup, if that doesn't work... As a last resort Restore your iPod as New. I too had the red circle and square after updating to 7.0.4 the last resort fixed mine, others have reported doing all the above, all have had reports of fixing the problem and not fixing it. Give it a try, hopefully one of these works, Good luck.

  • 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 the aol desktop crash every time I try to use it

    Why does the aol desktop crash every time I try to use it and how can I fix the problem.

    I am having exactly the same problem with my iPhone 4 (running 6.0.1 (10A523)). I have rebooted several times since this started occurring but it doesn't change the behavior. It was also reporting a "storage almost full" error quite often when I still have 1GB - 3GB of free space. As a troubleshooting exercise I removed all my music so there is now 20.1GB free. The storage warning no longer appears but the same issue still persists with reminders. Help, please!

  • Why does my Ipod keep freezing up during playback,

    Why does my Ipod 3 keep freezing up? I have reset it as discribed in the online help 4 different times and it still freezes.
    I at first thought it was due to the song was an MP3 but it has since froze on ACC and CDA audio. This would tell me it isn't the format that is causing it to freeze.

    By a reset do you mean an actual hard reset of the device or a restore of it in iTunes?  If it was the former, try a restore of the device in iTunes.  If it was the latter, your iPod likely needs servicing.

  • Why does the Ipod calender keep freezing?

    I'm big on organizing my things in my Ipod calender, I use it all the time. And I noticed this once a long while ago but until now it got worse. The calender app started freezing when I would be done creating an event and click on the 'DONE' button. It would freeze on the event page and I couldnt get out of it. Every time i would close the app and return it would stay stuck on the same "create an event" page. It would only go away when I would reset/turn off my Ipod.
    The first time that ever happened and I reset, the event appeared in the calender with all the correct information I inputed when I opened the app. The times after that the events have not been appearing at all and now I notice that when I put "repeating" events, they dont show for the whole length that I have inputed.
    I do not know how to fix this. How can I create events without the Ipod's calender app crashing every single time??

    If it occurs after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. You did not say the type of restore you performed.

  • Why does my ipod keep freezing up when i try to turn it back on?

    every time my ipod dies and i try to turn it back on it freezes up.. why? also every time i try to use an app it goes in and in like 5 seconds the app closes.. i've restored it but that only helps for a few days and then goes back to doing the same.. what can i do to make that stop or should i get a new itouch? it also freezed up when i try to reset it..

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

  • 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 freezing and skipping songs?

    I have the 80GB Ipod Classic, and for some reason it keeps skipping songs, for instance, whenever I go to look under a certain artist or a playlist of even just under "songs" I'll pick one and then it will skip one or two or ten, and there are some songs it just doesn't allow me to listen to anymore. Only on my ipod though, not on itunes. It also keeps freezing and will sometimes just stop in the middle of a song and skip to a new one. I've tried resetting it, and leaving it alone for a few days and letting it charge and leaving it off. Nothing seems to work.
    What can I do?

    I had this problem with my old 20GB classic ipod, it all started when I began using my ipod for my running trainings, every day it used to get worse freezing every 10 minutos or so, then I got ****** and bought a new 80GB classic Ipod, I have it for about 3 weeks now and guess what? It started freezing or skiping songs also. I did a test where I synced the same library on my both ipod and the songs being skipped on my new one wasnt being skipped on the old one, so its a problem with the song, then I though it could be any damage in the ipod HD but my new ipod has no reason to be damaged, the only impact that it might have recived is from my running trainings, but the impacts are really weak. Other test I did was trying to remove the song being skiped from the ipod, everytime I did that my ipod couldnt be ejcted, it kept showing me the following message "The ipod canot be ejcted because it contains files that are used by another aplication." I had to unplug my ipod without ejecting it.

  • Why does my iWorks Keynote freeze every time I try and open ppt files???

    For whatever reason, my iWorks Keynote freezes every single time I attempt to open a powerpoint file or open office file. I was under the impression that keynote would be able to read ppt files but now I am thinking that this was misleading. I have the latest software and upgrade (iWorks 09') and am not sure on how to review my powerpoints for school. Can someone tell me what's going on?
