IPod app closes immediately

[skippyman]

Hi all,
thanks in advance for the help. When I start the iPod app, it opens briefly and immediately closes, taking me back to the home screen. I have synched several times, powered on/off and still does the same. When connected to iTunes on my computer, it shows that there is music loaded. Anyone have ant ideas?

remove a song or add a new song and then sync again.

Still no luck

I gave that a try. Still no luck. Is there anyway to reinstall that app?

Sounds like something is corrupt. Just restore from within iTunes....

Restore did not solve the problem

Just finished restore from iTunes. No luck - DANG. All my earlier installed apps are gone - how do I easily get these back? And iPod app still does not work. I'm ready to junk this thing. Any more ideas will be appreciated.

Thanks

OK, got it working. Found a thread on another forum. Suggestion was to watch a video and then iPod app will be magically fixed. It magically worked. Even tho I had done this in the past, somehow the combo of the restore and this, has fixed it.

Now, how do I get my apps back after the restore?

Thanks all

I been having the same problem too. iPod app kept crashing. Thanks skippyman! You saved me from restoring. Playing a video did "magically" fixed the problem.

To get your app back, right-click on your iPad in iTunes and click "Restore from Backup..."

Video option didn't work for me. My video app is crashing immediately as well! This is terrible.
Any advise? I am doing a restore right now. Seems like this is going to take forever.

You can redownload any app from the app store, it will act like you're purchasing but a popup comes unjust before downloading and says you've already purchased this do you want to reload...just click ok

App?

So re-downloading an app from the app store on my ipad will fix the video and ipod app crashes?
I already restored to original settings and removed ALL my videos and music. If your msg works, maybe it will help many people in the future.

Let me know if I am misunderstanding.

Thanks.

No redownloading your apps is an option if they are missing after you've had to do a restore.

I had same problem, Facebook App would open then close immediately. I found I had run out of disk storage, and I guess Facebook app got corrupted. I deleted the Facebook app, made more disk space by deleting apps I dont use, then downloaded it again for free from the app store. All fixed, working well. I am thinking that trying to save photos when I was out of disk storage space, and Facebook was running in background, somehow allowed Facebook to get corrupted, not sure. But, deleting the Facebook app and reinstalling worked great. I have an iPad3 with 32GB memory.
