safari occasionally crashes while browsing![]()
8. Random disable timeI have no idea if it's the new firmware or not, but I've noticed that I have a lot of problems on the Touch I never ran into before the update or on any other iPods I've owned. Here's a list of what I have encountered so far, feel free to add your own.
1. Songs not playing (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/364122/, and https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/363464/)
2. Smart Playlists not working, seems like the iPod does not sync up the play counts from iTunes (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/363398/)
3. Songs finish playing then repeat the same song (without actually playing the song) instead of going to the next song
4. Cover art not displaying (could be that it just takes a while to load, but sometimes it'll just never load anything at all, no matter how long I wait)
5. While browsing in coverflow, after a certain point the screen will black out and take me back to the home screen. I've replicated this, so it must be some sort of problem with a certain cover art, or maybe the files are too big, or it's just loaded too much or something.
6. Wi-fi not being able to connect to access points. In the same place where I know there's a good signal, it just won't connect at all, and I'll have to turn the iPod off completely, then power it back up and try again and it will work flawlessly like usual.

7. Music stops playing randomly while browsing Safari at the same time
8. Random disable time
This one is very rare, although this is he second time it's happened to me. The first time i was listening when it stopped playing. I looked at it and it showed a 15 minute lock time. Confused i waited the 15 minutes and started listening to music again. That was about 3 months ago. Last night i finished listening to my ipod touch, so i put it in my bedside drawer. This morning i took it out the drawer and started to charge it. When i looked at the screen it said i had a4560220
minute disable time! This is (i did this all in my head so don't get mad if it's wrong
) equivalent to 76003.666 hours, or 3166.82 days. THE TOTAL AMOUNT IN YEARS IS ABOUT 8.68 YEARS!!! Whats the point of having an iPod for 6months if it's just gonna freeze itself for the next 8 years. IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME FIX THIS PLeASE TELL ME. I am going to see if i can get it fixed/replaced tomorrow, but if they can't fix it and won't replace it then screw you

jk but i will be annoyed
Genius sucks . Every song I try for genius saids something like doesn't have enough songs related or something like that . I'm even trying songs like single ladies , some lil wayne songs , hits or today and still get nothing WTF ? Anyone elese have this problem ?
Do you have the proper tags for the songs? Have you updated genius since you added those songs?
What do u mean proper tags? And yea I sync my new songs.
As in the song has the exact title that appears in iTunes, the exact Artist that appears in iTunes, and the exact Album.
(In iTunes did you ever click Store>>Update Genius?)
There's a new update for genius?
No. Every week iTunes sends off your genius data to make it work better and better, however you can do it manually in the way that I described.
Well I don't really mess with genius on the computer . I only use it on my touch .
well where do you think genius on your iPod gets its genius information? It gets it from iTunes when you sync it.
I have no idea if it's the new firmware or not, but I've noticed that I have a lot of problems on the Touch I never ran into before the update or on any other iPods I've owned. Here's a list of what I have encountered so far, feel free to add your own.
[..long list..]
Note that I'm not complaining, well I sorta am, but the point of this isn't to say "the iPod Touch sucks", it's more of a wishlist of bugs I hope they iron out in the next firmware update. Luckily it's mostly minor stuff, but there shouldn't be any problems with music working and the playlist problem is really annoying.
IMO the 3 biggest problems with the ipod function:
1. Compilation artists show up in 'Artists' view mode. They should be hidden like in previous ipods, noone wants to see a whole bunch of random artists cluttering up their Artist view.
2. Smart playlists are broken. This is a dealbreaker for anyone who uses smart playlists extensively.
3. Albums with the same name get lumped as the same album in Cover Flow. Obvious bug which surely needs to be fixed pretty soon, most obviously affects 'Greatest Hits' albums.
I dunno if this can be counted as iPod Touch problem, but it doesn't activate iTune on my MBP whenever I connect it. I've got to manually open up iTunes, even though I've set the Touch to open iTunes whenever I connect.
I have downloaded two apps but they haven't appeared on my pages. I can't redownload them coz every time I go on them in the store in the top corner where you press to buy I can't coz it's highlighted. Is there anything I can do to redownload them and is there a maximum amount of pages you can have
Please reply
