IPOD skipping thru tracks

[richieg]

I have a current 30G Ipod and have a problem recently when trying to play a good few tracks. They play fine on my ibook but when I start particular albums on my ipod it skips thru every track without playing a second of any track and when it skips thru the entire album it goes back to the main menu

Doea anyone have any ideas of what is causing this and how to fix it?

Restore the entire iPod to factory setting in the iPod menu, and then put the music back on it.

You may have unplugged it while it was updating. Happens to me all the time.

This has happened a few times on me but I never plug it out until its inished and I eject it before unplugging it. I just restored it last week so it looks like I have to do it again.

Between this and the error 48 message my new video ipod is driving me nuts.

I love this place, its my home. with that said in my opinion this is not the best place for a lot of good ipod help.. try these forums, www.ilounge.com or www.apple.com

Well, thats a bummer. It happens sometimes, but at least it is an easy fix.

Good luck with it. Rep for the kind question.
