Why would my ipod cycle through an album without playing any songs

why would my ipod cycle through an album without playing any songs

Mine did that too. I don't know why it happened, but I restored it to factory settings, reloaded all my songs, and now it works fine.

    I have an ipod touch 32gb. Model: MC008BT Version: 5.1.1. 3rd ed.
    Recently when clicking play on any song the ipod will shuffle through as many songs as there are in the album or playlist until it reaches the end without playing any songs. It also does not go through each song. For example:
    a 62 song playlist. I start on song 16. Immediatly the song will shuffle: 16-26-54-62 and then back to the main screen. Also when the songs are shuffling the play button in the top right corner is on.
    Music will play if i start from track one with shuffle turned off and repeat turned on. But then i am limited each time to 1-5 songs.
    Ipod has been in excellent working order since this has happened.
    any suggestions on how to fix?

    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.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - 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.

    I've just connected the ipod to my computer and checked the music on the iPod. The album that I am having trouble with shows an exclamation symbol next to it. I've tried deleting the album from iTunes and re downloading it then syncing but it doesn't appear to affect the information shown the iPod. The album neither deletes nor updates.

  • Why do my Ipod nano6 always turn sleep without finishing one song.

    Why do my iPod Nano6 always turn to sleep mode withou finishing ow ne song? Anybody knows how to solve this issue?

    The reason that it pauses when the screen goes dark is because your headset has not been detected.
    First, make sure the headset is fully inserted. If you can see ANY silver at all from the plug, then it is not fully inserted. When you insert it, you should hear and feel a "click" when it gets fully seated.
    If pushing it in as hard as you can does not do it, then you need to look in thee and see if there is something stuck in the headset jack.

  • IPod cycles through titles without playing

    When I select a playlist, then a song title, the iPod cycles through the titles very fast without playing them then returns me to the menu the catgories menu.
    I have updated everything.
    thanks

    Does this happen to your entire collection, or just a playlist?
    The reason I ask is,I just solved the same problem that cropped up today on my 3rd Gen iPod.
    I purchased 13 songs yesterday with a gift certificate. I created a playlist called "new iTunes" on the iPod. The tracks played fine just this morning (off the iPod itself). This afternoon, they only played through iTunes when the iPod was connected to my computer. Otherwise, the playlist just scrolled like you're describing.
    The weird thing was, even if I selected an individual song through the "Songs" or "Artists" menu, it would go back and scroll through the playlist. So I tried deleting the playlist in iTunes.
    Now it seems to work fine. Not sure what happened... corrupted playlist maybe? Perhaps deleting the playlist broke the connection between them or something.

  • Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    For both
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    on my iPad (Retina Display) in Google why would a site come up that I have not any knowledge of?  Not one that I have EVER looked for?

    As far as I could see - only once.  All morning I have had trouble with connecting to my WiFi.  I blame AppleSupport who were trying to help me with a totally different problem and they asked me to "Reset" my iPad - and I lost my Wifi connection and had a huge amount of trouble getting back on.  Now every time I boot up the iPad and try to get on-line it asks for my Password for WiF!  Not happy.

  • The album artwork on my iTouch looks correct when I am scrolling through, but when I play a song the album artwork shows an incorrect image.  How do I fix this?

    For example, when I am looking through my albums, the artwork is right.  When I click on an album and play a song, the album artwork is incorrect.  When I go to iTunes and try to look at the artwork, it is correct.  What do I do?

    A couple of other possibilities:
    The CD is dirty / damaged / suffering from "CD Rot" - sometimes CDs may seem to play fine on a CD player (or using the CD-player function of a PC) but will not transfer correctly to a computer - this is the result of the way that CD players auto-correct the datastream from the CD where PCs, when reading the audio CD as data, do not.
    Enabling the error correction function in iTunes import may alleviate if not fully resolve this
    Use an alternate tool to extract the audio from the CD - Exact Audio Copy is probably the best out there, as it can be configured to attempt multiple reads of every audio sample on a CD to get a consistent result.  Then import the resulting files into iTunes.
    You don't say whether this is specific to one CD as in the original poster's case, but the "crackling" symptom has affected a significant number of users of the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.0.71 - these are mostly addressed in the most recent update (12.1.1.4), but if nothing else works it may be worth trying this alternative installer: iTunes 12.1.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)

  • My computer crashed. So does this mean I can not add any more music to my ipod from a different computer without all the songs being erased? Can I sync my ipod to a new computer if I allow all the songs to be erased?

    My computer crashed. So does this mean I can not add any more music to my ipod from a different computer without all the songs being erased? The ipod works fine and now i got a new computer. So it seems like my only options are leaving my ipod in a state where i cant add anymore songs or erasing all my songs and trying to use my ipod from my new computer. Can someone please inform me on how to have my ipod work from a different computer, even if i have to erase my songs. Thanks.

    Yes, if you choose the Erase and Sync option (or restore your iPod) you will be allowed to sync your iPod with the new computer.

  • Must turn iPod off and back on to play a song

    Hello everyone,
    Almost everytime I go to use my iPod after it has been turned off for more than a couple hours I have the following problem:
    I can navigate through all menus, and select a song or video to play, but the song or video will not play. Instead, the song or video just sits at 0:00, forever.
    Hack Solution:
    The only way to get any song or video to play is to turn off the iPod (by holding down on the play/pause button) and then turn the iPod back on. Once I have done this then I can play any song or video without a problem.
    Notes:
    1) I have sent my iPod to Apple for this problem, and they sent it back without doing anything saying they found no problem, even after they told me on the phone this kind of activity should never happen.
    2) I have reinstalled iTunes
    3) I have updated the iPod firmware
    4) I have reset the iPod
    5) I have restored the iPod
    6) I use Automatic Syncing
    None of the above have solved the problem.
    Thanks for any advice any of you can add!

    When I turn on the iPod it goes to the last menu I was in, or to the song that was playing when I turned it off. The apple logo never comes up. Yes, it responds right away (but it won't play songs). I only use the hold button when I put the iPod in my coat pocket, the use of the hold button has no apparent effect on whether or not my problem occurs.
    I called Apple Tech Support this afternoon. They do NOT believe that my problem is a software problem.
