Won't switch off

My iPod doesn't always switch off and won't re-set sometimes either.
Also, when i connect through USB1.0, sometimes it connects (undertstandable as slower port), sometimes it doesn't. Same with charging. When i manage to connect it, i can't d/c it - have to just pull cable as i press d/c iPod and it instantly reconnects.
Won't charge through wall charger either.
Please help!

It also may be possible that your charger is a
different voltage from the US-Wales. When I go
somewhere else out of the US, my cord dosen't work
either.
It's the charger i bought in the US..I think it may have got damaged in travel perhaps. I tried it with my UK plug and an adaptor with no luck. This is gay happening away from home! Chargers are multi-voltage so should work everywhere in the world.
I just cant work out if its an iPod fault or me! I have had no luck with them (My mini has been to apple twice)
My 5G is only a few weeks old.

  • My safari won't switch off - what can i do?

    i opened a page which should have allowed me to download a mock TOCFL exam (that's the standardized chinese exam in taiwan), but instead i just got a page of gibberish and since then skype won't let me close it, also while closing tabs there's no longer an x to click, instead i have to right click and then close it that way. anyone know what's going on here? also since safari won't switch off, i have no way of trying to deinstall and then reinstall it...any suggestions?

    Select  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar, then select Safari and press return. Do the same with Skype.
    Run Software Update and install all available updates.
    Reinstalling system components is rarely the solution to any problem, and certainly not to this one.

  • There is no standby time on my iphone 4 as the music won't switch off no matter what i do?

    there is no standby time on my iphone 4 as the music won't switch off no matter what i do?

    Try a hard reset while connected to power: (adapter, not iTunes on computer): Press and hold both the Home button and Sleep/wake button at the same time for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple Logo appears.
    If this doesn't work: try to force restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    NB: the article above will erase all data and content, so make sure you've got a backup
    Good luck

  • Wifi symbol missing plus phone won't switch off

    My wifi symbol is missing from my screen, settings say I am connected, checked this by turning cellular data off and I can still access Internet so I must be connected.
    Thought by switching off and turning on again might fix the issue but my phone won't switch off.
    Can anyone offer any assistance? I'm a bit of a technophobe so need things in laymans terms please.
    My iPad and another iPhone are showing as connected to the same wifi network.
    I have an iPhone 5.

    RESET DEVICE
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).

  • I have a white screen on my iphone 3G since last night.. I tried a holding home and on/off buttons down but it won't switch off - help

    I have a white screen on my iphone 3G since last night.. I tried a holding home and on/off buttons down but it won't switch off - help

    Apparently, this is caused by a loose connection between the "guts" of the phone and the LCD screen. While it only displays white, the touch screen will still operate correctly - so if you know where to swipe, you can still power it off or unlock the screen, or touch to answer a call or etc.
    With my phone, pinching the top right corner near the power button while pushing the home/power button to wake up the phone, seems to tighten the connection enough for it to work. I have not had to maintain the pinch after waking up the phone, but I do have to do it each time I unlock the screen. I have gotten by for about 6 months so far, and hoping the iphone 5's come out soon!!

  • Won't switch off after upgrade

    Yes, and it is seriously irritating.

  • Won't switch off/on: Rebooting Cycle

    The sleep/wake button appears to have stopped working (although can be depressed). The get the iPod to work, one must give it power and then use immediately after unplugging before it goes to sleep. It won't switch off, but after use (and when would normally auto-lock) goes into an apparent rebooting cycle where the screen goes from black (off) to lighting up with Apple logo, and back to black (off) - it will continue in this cycle until the battery dies. Once it is in this cycle, the sleep/wake and home buttons do not function.
    Any ideas?
    I've tried holding sleep/wake and home buttons for 10 secs to reset - no change.
    I've tried connecting it to the computer and checking for updates - the only one which comes up is an update which requires payment for, and I'm loathed to do this in case the iPod is broken and ends up in the bin! The iPod Touch is only 18 months only.

    2 possibilities:
    o Your iPod has a software-based error. Solution: On iTunes, click on the "Restore" button in your iPod's page.
    o Your iPod has a physical problem. Solution: Depending on the actual problem, go to an apple store, and they will tell you if they can do anything to it. If they can't, I'm sorry, but your iPod's good for the bin.

  • Ipad screen has frozen and won't switch off

    My ipad has frozen on me in the middle of watching bbc iplayer and won't switch off either.  Any suggestions.

    It does not specifically address this particular issue per se. Rebooting/resetting the iPad is a basic troubleshooting tip that covers a whole multitudes of little issues in iOS devices.
    This is a screenshot of page 127 of the iOS 6 support pdf manual for the iPad.
    Here is the manual.

  • My iPod nano won't switch off

    I've just bought a nano iPod and for some reason unknown to me it won't switch off. Everytime I hold down the menu button nothing happens, or when something does happen, the apple logo comes on the screen for a few seconds (as it does when you reset the iPod) then it goes back to the 'home' screen on the iPod again. I've tried the '3 R's to sort this out, and since I updated my older iPod as well, that has refused to switch off too. PLEASE help me.

    Everytime I hold
    down the menu button nothing happens,
    Hi,
    Is that a typo? You press the play/pause button to turn it off
    Regards,

    Hi.  I have an omnia 10 tablet which has been great until now.  After the latest windows update was installed, it refuses to switch off!  I have tried everything and all it does is goes to sleep - thus running the battery down. Anyone any idea how to fix this?

  • IPad 2 safari won't open and iPad won't switch off IOS 6.0.1

    Hallo everyone,
    Pleease can anyone help as my iPad 2 is no longer recognised in iTunes. 
    I cannot open Safari - it immediately returns to the home screen.
    It will not switch off so that I can reboot it.
    Aaaargh !
    Thanks

    Quit ALL apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Reboot the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Do this for Safari as well. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
