I can't play my songs on YouTube, iPod, and Pandora Radio via the multitasking bar. As you can see, I haven't muted anything, so I don't really know what the problem is. Any help? I get this problem every month or so... Quick replies are always appreciated. :/

So no one knows?

Have you tried this?:

1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
2. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

Then turn it back on.

Of course. :P

No idea really, well a not helpful guess maybe.

The multitask bar always shows the last app to play, so I suppose it could get confused. I know I was having a heck of a time starting and stoping the TWiT app the other day from the keyboard (was trying for the iPod, but forgot I'd been listening to TWiT last). Surprised it worked at all since the TWiT app has background play turned off.

The confusion might occur when the last music (audio) app is removed from RAM by the OS, but still defaulted in the multitask bar.

So you can try starting the app the normal way, then go back to the multitask bar and see how it works.

Tried that too. Mght as well restore.

This is probably also redundant too, but you did a reset when the restart failed, right? I can never keep track of who has and has not had this advice.

Reset: Hold down the power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears. The iPad will reboot. This usually takes a bit longer than a restart.

That's kinda the first thing I ALWAYS do whenever my iDevice is bugging out.
To answer the question, yes.

Oh well. You're probably right about the restore then. That sucks.
