Why is My Ipod going crazy!

My Ipod seems to not do anything. First of all I do know how to turn it on so don't respond with that.
My Ipod Problems
Continuously going through the songs, never playing them.
My Ipod rarely reads when I plug it to the Comp.
It will get extremely hot.
It has reset it self maybe 2 times.
Plays through about 10-20 secs of a song then it will switch the next one. Usually the next one will completely lock up the Ipod and i have to do the center button Menu combo to reset it.
What I have done
I have reinstalled Itunes
I have restored the Ipod to factory settings
I have updated both Itunes and the Updater.

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults.
If you still have the problem then you may have a problem with the headphones. Maybe a bad connection or intermitent short/open.

  • Why are my apps going crazy?

    So i have an ipod touch 4g and deceided to upgrade to iOS 5. As usual it told me the backup failed and that it would erase everything but that didnt really matter. Now iv moved my library to another computer and everything is back on fine except my apps! They're all over the place, some are stuck at "waiting". They're some empty spaces and nothing will go there as if theres an invisible app. And are some apps non compatible with iOS 5 at the moment?

    Try this list to  #1-16, then use Firefox and see if the problems go away.
    Perhaps conside turning off Graphics Swtiching in Energy saver, Intel HD 3000 graphics are cheap junk, you got a real video card use it.
    If not try a #18

  • HT4528 Why is my IPhone going crazy?

    It's randomly trying to delete my messages, won't let me text, opens Safari and other windows, won't let me turn it off, and too much more. I have tried to contact Apple without having to drive an hour away just to make an appointment for something that might not need an appointment. Unfortunatly, it just gives me recordings. I do not want to get a new phone AGAIN, because last time, it deleted all of my games even when I used ICloud. Please help me fix this problem and better understand what to do.

    Reset it. Hold down the power and home button together until the Apple logo is displayed, and let go. No settings or data will be lost.

  • HT201406 Why is my ipod turning on aND off by its self

    my ipod is some how going crazy. My ipod goes crazy when iam charging it. And now out of no were it just started to turn off and on by it self.

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
    - If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • 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.

  • My ipod touch 5g goes crazy when i plug it up and i use the apple cord that it can with

    When I plug my ipod touch 5g up to charge and I get on there to play games but when I do, it goes crazy! The screen wont work and I keep on tapping at it and then the screen finally works but only for about 2 mins.

    Try a different cable and a different charging source.
    Other users have reported the same but never posted back when how it was resolved.

  • Why can't I drag and drop (or import in any way) my MPEG-4 or MOV Files? I am going crazy, going on 3 hours now!!!

    How?
    easy way:
    • double-click mp4 to open it in QuicktimePlayer.app
    (does it play the video?)
    • File/Export/choose 720p (if optional, if not 480p)
    • import THAT into iMovie using iMovies import routine, proceed …

  • My fan goes crazy when watching vedio clips?? Why??

    Everytime when I watch video clip or movies with RealPlayer, the fan of my Macbook just goes crazy. It sounds like a jet. Is it something wrong with the Macbook or the Realplayer?
    Does anybody else have experienced this issue?
    How could it be solved??
    Thanks

    Like this:
    1) Click on the blue apple in the top left of your screen.
    2) About this Mac
    3) Click the "More Info" button
    4) When the System Profiler opens, click on Applications. It is in the left pane near the bottom.
    5) The right should now contain all the names of your applications in alphabetical order. Look for RealPlayer.
    6) Once found, click on it to clearly highlight it.
    7) You should see:
    Version: 10.1.0
    Kind: Universal
    If you don't see that, then uninstall RealPlayer and download the correct version from:
    http://www.real.com
    Read everything VERY carefully. Look for the Intel version of the player.
    I just realized that you might be asking how you know if you have the latest system and firmware updates. If that is the question, then:
    1) Click on the blue apple in the upper left of your screen.
    2) Click "Software Update..."
    3) Download 10.4.7 (if you don't have it already)
    4) Download Intel Firmware update (again, only if you don't have it already)
    5) Reset your machine when prompted by OS X.
    That's about I can type right now (my brain is pudding). Post back if this STILL wasn't helpful enough (or at all).

  • Why does my ipod no longer play all the items in a playlist?

    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...

  • Mac Os 10.6.6 update start the fans goes crazy

    Hi to all
    Some months ago (almost a year from now) my mac start to become hot after only a few minutes it started up and the fan goes crazy but I never realize why. I made some search on the internet but the only answer I found was using some software to reduce fan speed. It didn't work. I run the Hardware test but nothing strange. I also took my macbook to an apple certified repair center but they told me that nothing was wrong. I also ask to another repair center but same thing. So I left my macbook as it was with this super fan noise all the time. A quite disturbing thing but there was no solution and for what I'm doing my machine is ok so why change it? (It was the only solution they gave me)
    Last day my hd broke down so I had to replace it. I took my macbook pro a1211 model to an apple repair center they change the hd with a new one.
    So I reinstall everything for the beginning. I took my snow leopard dvd formatted the new hd, installed the os, iWork 2008, iLife 2008, Mamp, CSS Edit, Espresso, Pixelmator and few other application such as Firefox, Camino, Etc...
    I use the macbook with mac os 10.6, because I had to finish some work, and with my big surprise for two days the machine was super silent no fans, no hot body ..... nothing. I never reboot it and still no fans and hot body wow.
    Today I wanted to install the developer kit with ios 4.2 and so I had to update the Mac os x to version 10.6.6 as soon as I made the update after the reboot the fans start again to go like crazy and after 15 minutes of work the macbook body become very hot.
    The question is why?
    Anyone can help me?
    Thanks in advance
    Gianfranco

  • I need help...im going crazy!!!!

    I have been usings my ipod mini for about 7 months now,an 2 days ago i tried to upload cd's to it.now for some reason it wont connect to my computer.i updated it already too an that didnt work an i also reset it an still nothing.i am going crazy trying to figure this out can someone please help me without having to delete itunes off my computer because then i lose my 800 songs!

    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
    And fyi, deleting iTunes from the computer does not cause you to lose the songs. The iTunes music folder remains unaffected.

  • PLEASE HELP!!!I'M GOING CRAZY!!!

    for my little brothers birthday we bought him a ipod mini. i bought one in june and nearly tore my hair out tring to install it and the same problem is happening and i don't remember how to solve it. i tried to do something nice for him and set it up but now were both going crazy
    THE WINDOW SAYS:
    YOUR IPOD IS BEING RESET. PLEASE WAIT.
    REBOOTING IPOD.
    ITS BEEN LIKE THIS FOR GOING ON THREE DAYS!!! PLEASE HELP

    Formatting the iPod shouldnÕt take any longer than a few minutes.
    First of all, try clicking on the little x in the top corner, which might take you to the next stage in the process. Sometimes it gets stuck.
    If this doesnÕt work, shut down the computer, disconnect the iPod, restart the computer, run the updater again, and connect the iPod when prompted.
    Never leave it like that for 3 days. You risk permanent damage to the hd if you do.

  • 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.
