However, the great sounding units. Prior to c. Our ears are simply not that good. My ipod nano I recieved for christmas is now frozen!!! It was on the hold mode for about two days and now I tuned it on, i found a song, but now its frozen on the top it says now playing but I still see my songs please help…. Another thing is that it has ben frozen for over ten hours is it broken and get a new one or unfreeze it some how.
I have an older ipod nano. I get the same error when I hook it up to a wall charger and my computer also. My new computer runs windows vista. If i try to copy more than a few things off of it i use it more as an external HD than anything It freezes.
I dont have any crappy itunes, so i dont think thats teh problem… But if i hook it back up to my old computer XP it seems to work normally again. Do i really have to have itunes just to use it as a HD? Thankyou soooooooo much. This definatley helped me. Just wanted to say thanks. The first few times, the iPod reset itself when almost out of power. But I tried the toggle hold button and then held the menu and center buttons for 10 seconds, and it reset itself.
Now I know what to do in the future instead of having a useless iPod for 6 hours while waiting for it to run out of juice. My only question is, is this a widespread problem? If so, do you think an ITune update will remedy this issue in the future?
My ipod seems to be frozen on the image of a battery with a triangular sign with an exclamation mark on it. Any suggestions?? I have the old nano ipod and it is frozen. I have reset it a bunch of times but still no luck on fixing it.
It still will load songs on it but then i cant listen to them because it gets stuck all the time. Also when i put it on hold, sometimes the screen will fade away. I need help!! How can i fix it? I have a digital ipod and I cannot get it off the screen with the Apple logo. I have tried toggling the hold swtich along with holding the menu and play buttons, but nothing seems to work.
I like my digital ipod, but it has been nothing but trouble since I purchased it. Trust me, there were far less problems with the 4Gb Shuffle. I have been trying to charge my ipod nano but when I plug it into my computer it doesnt register anywhere and the screen flashes over and over with the apple symbol on it. This will go on for hours. Ive tried the toggling of the hold button and holding the select and menu buttons but that only lasts for a couple seconds… how in the world do I fix this!
My ipod is stuck on hold or at least it has the lock symbol in the lefthand corner and I can get it off. Its stuck at the menu. So of course i was mad. Ok really mad and nothing worked. So i drinded the battery thinking it would help it forget something or whatever. This took a couple of days since i think after rebooting so much it turns off.
U just got to keep it going or rebooting. Next thing u know it was dead. I have already tried putting it in IPOD disk mode. It still should be covered under a Best Buy 3 year warranty, but I am trying to keep from having to send it away for a while.
Hi there! My 60gb iPod Video is giving me serious headaches. I have a brand new 80 gb and I was putting songs on it and out of no where everything froze and then I heard clicking and then a window came up saying that I had a error I was gonna loose all my songs and I did 9 hours later I still can solve the problem.
Okay,so i just got my ipod video 80Gb and everything was working fine until i got the ipod docking station and i kept it on the docking station for some time now and when i went to go take it off it says its on hold,i toggled the hold button but it dose not stay off hold it works for a few day thens goes back to the same problem,i guess i should try to reset it??
I was listening to my ipod, while on the computer, and i look down and my IPOD is frozen. I have done everything to fix it, what can i do? I sent my ipod in and apple told me nothing was wrong. My 5th generation 30GB Video Ipod shows the hold symbol in the top left hand corner and its stuck there and i cant do anything on my ipod at all.
Any suggestions on how to fix it? The songs and everything work on my iPod, but my screen is all white, and none of the words or anything will show up on my iPod. Only sometimes when I press down the middle and menu will the apple come up, and everything will be back to normal.
How can this be fixed?! Do I have to go to the Apple Store in the mall or something? I have an iPod Touch 8GB, and the screen is frozen, I have restored it, reset it, charged it, and done everything else I can find on the net and its not working, can someone help me and tell me something to do to fix this?
I cant remember the exact time I bought it, but it was sometime last year and I dont think I can return it, I dont have a receipt. Many thanks for this invaluable information. Using the above intructions I managed to unfreeze it!!! I paid to have my hard drive replaced in my iPod, and got it replaced a second time on the repair warranty. The magnet caused all of these problems. If anyone is experiencing any of these symptoms, this could be something to look into.
My ipod turns on only when i turn the hold switch on. I have no idea???????? I had just gotten my new pink iPod nano yesterday and it froze! Ipod Errors and Freezes — how to fix them?
You may need to repeat this step. I pluged it into the comupter and when i disconnected the ipod the screen went white.
I can sync music still and i can still listen to music but i cant see anything because the screen is all white. I tried the rebooting process and i tried pluging it up to the computer but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone know what i can do to fix this problem? I have an 80 gig iPod Video just under a year old and it has has been working fine until about a month or two ago. I have confirmed that it has not been switched on by accident.
What do you think is happening? For the first time I got this sad looking iPod picture with a triangle and exclamation mark in the middle. It would not get a charge, it kept showing this image every once in a while and the computer would not recognize it. Every few minutes it would also show the blacked out apple symbol, you know the one it shows right before it comes on. I was pressing all kinds of buttons, looking up all kinds of stuff, nothing helped.
I hope this helps anyone who has experienced this frustration. I have a problem with my ipod. My friends told me i have to reformat it.. I have a ipod classic.. X it just shows me a pic of an apple til the battery runs out : any help here?? My sister had the 1st generation ipod nano and she…kinda dropped it in the toilet…woops! Then she gave it to me, complaining about it having technical difficulties; so I tried it!
I plugged it in and it worked, but i took it out of the charger and it froze; i tried it SO many times more and… it kept freezing! So i just put it away in my drawer for a long while, then got it out and put it on the charger and, wala, it worked!
I then plugged it into my computer and I synced all my music onto it and it worked for about… days. Then i plugged it into the charger for about a day and it froze up again! I am SO mad because i could finally not have to guess where my music is on my ipod shuffle and now my only ipod with a screen is frozen! I have a first generation 30gb video Ipod and while playing my music and skipping to the next song, it froze.
As apple ipods usually go, they tend to cease function around 10 mths of use, so i was very much convinced that it was the end for me, but Behold!! I am so ecstatic that sites like this exist. Thank you so much Martin : , your tips were on point!! I have a first gen 30 gb ipod video and i just so happened to have the hold button on while charging my ipod and the next morning it was froze with the charged screen.
I have tried many things but i think they dont work cause it is froze with the hold button on it will not connect to my comp. It worked and now my ipod is starting up again! I just bought a new ipod classic 80gb. I have a 30 gb ipod and it froze up for its second day in a role so i looked up how to fix it and thanks to you guys i fixed it im now hooked on your website.
Im positive its not the usb connection as my 2gb ipod works perfectly off it. Every time i charge it on my docking system til its fully charged as soon as i connect it to the usb BAM the battery runs out and i get a message saying i have a corrupted file fix and restore etc, so i do but stil nothing happens…plez help me!!! Hey guys. Had an iPod freezer to.
The more full the battery was, the more it froze! When the battery was close to empty, it worked without freezing…. So finally I replaced the logic board a little harder to swap then the other two, but with a little patience and a good tutorial you should pull it off. And … taadaaa! Awesome advice. Just got mine to unfreeze, saves me waiting a week for the battery to run down by itself. Also, when an iPod first freezes, just try gently pulling the headphones in and out of socket — it usually unfreezes it quicker than completely resetting the iPod.
However, I still have the problem of spending hours a day continually resetting my iPod. Is there any other useful tips for unfreezing an iPod? This helps so much!
I recently got my first touch screen ipod and downloaded a few movies with no problems. Now, I continue to get error code The movie downloads until the last few seconds, and then the error code pops up, and it says it is not completely downloaded and I am unable to sync it to my ipod to watch it on the tv.
