So my iPod Touch 2nd gen keeps asking to “slide to power off” randomly when I hit the top on/off button. I’ve disassembled the iPod a bit, and it’s definitely not the main button on the iPod, and i don’t know if maybe replacing the top button would help? Has anybody else experienced a problem similar to this? Thanks!
I have a few iPod touch and the sleep button is sometimes totally worn out. i would disassemble the iPod and check the sleep button - maybe you can fix it without replacing it
It happened to me, and I cleaned the power button from the inside. There was just dust and sand between the power button and the casing.
There is something stuck between the button and the sensor, causing it to stay pressed. You can try blowing some compressed air around the button and pressing it over and over if you don’t want to take it apart tot clean it.
Hi My ipod touch does the same and keeps asking me to power off. However, when I keep the ear phones in it works fine. It never asks me to “Slide to power off” Now … does anyone have a solution for this problem? Thank You
Same things happens to me. My ipod touch3 has water damage, and not only does it power off (slide to power off) by itself, but it also turns up the volume all the time. I installed a new volume and power button, to no avail. The only thing that works is keeping the headphones in….but I can’t push them in the whole way (other wise only the background sound will play for movies…no vocals:) weird)
