Why does my ipod slow down playback?

I have a 3rd Gen iPod Classic which has worked flawlessly until just recently. It has started to play back my mp3 files at a slightly slower tempo but enough that it is really disconcerting. Does this mean that the unit is dying? Like maybe the hard drive is on its way out? I know newer versions have a speed control. Not mine. Has anyone out there had a similar experience? Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Good that "big gamer nerds" are starting to use the Mac. Not long ago, there were hardly any good games around. Going backwards, yes, it's going to make the MBP run hotter. It's using the max amount of everything running.
To really help you, we would need the exact model of MBP. For example, if you have 15 or 17", you need to make sure you're running with the discrete video card (nvidia or AMD) instead of the integrated Intel version (which is good enough for TV viewing and web browsing). Also, you need to make sure you maximize memory. When I play a game (I only play Starcraft), I shut down all other programs, especially anything that runs in the background (like a twitter feed, though that really doesn't use too many resources). You can use Activity Monitor (it's in your Utility folder) to see what's sucking resources on your computer.
Remember, the game companies want to sell as many games as possible. So they give computer spects that will just barely run the game if you tweak every setting. You want to be way over the minimum settings in processor speed, memory, disk space etc.
Minecraft has known framerate issues on the Mac port of the game. It has nothing to do with you, your Mac, or anything, but the quality of code from the developer.

HT201412 why is the ipod slow??

when I open any app, it need to take 3 second, and sometimes I even did not open itune, it just showed up when I open??? and especial for camera, I have to wait a while though, and the take picture in the dark is not that clear?!?!?!
Thanks,

Because that was the decision Apple have made.
Beyond that, it's against the Terms of Use (of this forum) to discuss Apple policy or decisions. Not sure how it would help you even if anyone here knew!

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.
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.
- 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 is my iPod so slow since ios5

Why is my iPod so slow after I updated to ios5.

first turn off iCloud, as much as we all love it, it makes out devices really slow and it tends to make the home screen freeze after unlocking at times. next you want to limit the things in both spotlight, and the apps in your notification center. turning off location services is also a good way to cut down on memory usage and so is removing the weather and stock widget for the notification center.
these things will speed up your device, but the most important to remove out of all of these is iCloud, the others are just more suggestions(:
also remove unwanted apps running in the background by double tapping the button, holding on an app until it goes into toggle mode, and click the red minus button to stop it from taking up memory in the background...
this will 100% speed up your device and get rid of unwanted bugs/glitches(:

Why is my iPod so slow?

I have a little bit over 17g left yet my iPod is still slow. Why?
Sometimes it's so laggy when I'm on the Google Chrome or Twitter app, especially Facebook app. I even deleted all of my games and I ended up with one game, which sometimes so lag and crash down.
It doesn't make sense for me, like I have so many space left in my iPod and my connection with wi-fi is good and I always turn off all the apps that I don't use and sometimes turn off my iPod during my sleep. Still why is it still slow? Any suggestions to why is it slow and how to fix this problem?
I do have an iPod touch 4th generation iOS 6.1.3 and was bought a year and a month ago.

Why does my ipod run slow

Hello people

Why does my ipod 4g run slow if it has enough space available?

Why is my ipod touch 4g only connecting at 54 mbps?

My ipod touch 4g has been slow here lately downloading apps and such. So I have an app that analyzes the wifi and it shows im only connecting at 54 mbps. I know the ipod touch 4g is able to connect to wireless n running at 150 mbps on the 2.4 ghz band. Why is it not using it? Is this why it's so slow? also my battery drains quick it seems. I just replaced my netgear wgr614 with a Belkin N600 DB for the dual band N now I know the ipod cant utilize the 300 mbps on the 5 ghz channel. I bought this router because the Ipad 2 needed it. My ipad 2 would cut out and drop signal in my bedroom now signal is great and stays great and it works on the 5 ghz channel. Long story short can't hook up no more tv's to my cable signal I have one tv and my cable modem on one splitter only one outlet in the whole apartment. I was told if I ran another tv it would kill the signal. So i figured get an Ipad 2 and use the Time warner app and watch live tv that way. It works like a charm now where as on my G router it would cut out and buffer a lot. I'm just trying to wonder why the Ipod touch 4g can't utilize the 150 mbps N 2.4 ghz band. Any ideas or anything I can do? I tried resetting network settings on the Ipod with no luck no change. My router is using WPA-2 PSK AES if that makes a difference. my internet is 10 meg with powerboost roadrunner. Also the wireless channels are on 1 and 6

The % battery is not accurate.
If a full charge only last 30 minutes after restoring to factory setting/new iPod that indicates a bad battery.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the battery for less. Google for more.

Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. You can purchase a replacement for about $10.

Why is facebook so slow on my Iphone with IOS 8?

Why is facebook so slow on my Iphone with IOS8?

Here is the article explaining why.
Developer Steve Streza, iOS devices are programmed to ping a test URL upon connecting to a Wi-Fi network to see if it’s protected by a “captive portal.” And that test page has been down all afternoon…
Here’s more on that from Errata Security:
“When an Apple iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod) connects to a WiFi network, the first thing it does is make a request to the URL http://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html.
The purpose of this request is to discover if there is a “captive portal” in the way. A captive portal is when, after connecting to the WiFi, any web request you makes gets redirected to a login/ToS page. In order to continue, you must either login with a username/password (or sign up, then login), and/or access the Terms of Service.”
Anyway, it sounds like Apple was able to correct this issue on their end, so no update will be necessary. But if you’re still having Wi-Fi problems, you can try the following:
Toggle your Wi-Fi off and on – Settings app > Wi-Fi OR
Set your device’s HTTP Proxy to Auto – Settings app > Wi-Fi > Blue icon next to the network you’re connecting to > Scroll to the bottom
One of these methods should cure your iOS 6 Wi-Fi troubles. If not, be sure to let us know in the comments below.

Why is my Ipod Touch no longer recognised by my computer. I have Vista

Why is my Ipod touch no longer recognised by my computer? please.

See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

Why is my iPod Touch now repeating songs once in the Bose Dock?

Why is my iPod Touch now repeating songs once in the Bose Dock? How do I get this to stop? I have already done a factory restore and then reloaded my music onto this iPod.

I had this problem after upgrading to iOS4, but didn't discover it until I got to the gym and went to start my workout! No music (except the stuff they play at the gym) meant a short workout for me!
I figure that the glitch comes from the fact that when you upgrade to iOS4 iTunes takes a backup of your iPod, does the firmware update and then puts the backed up content back on, I'm thinking that there are some subtle differences between iOS3 and iOS4 that cause confusion.
THE FIX! I have found that the best fix (in fact the best course of action) is to restore the iPod from iTunes (just hook it up and hit the "Restore" button and tell iTunes to treat it as a new iPod. Then just re-sync all your content and it should work perfectly. It is a much easier way of getting your iPod updated without as many glitches.
HTH!!

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.
- Power off and then back on the router
