My iPod touch 4G keeps getting very hot and the apps keep crashing

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:

Restart.. Reset.. Restore from Backup.. Restore as New...

Try a Reset of the Touch... You will Not Lose Any Data...

Turn the Touch Off... ( if it isn’t already )

Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...

Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...

Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)

Release the Buttons...

Turn the Touch On...

If that does not help... See Here:

Try:

- Reset:

Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home

button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

- Restore from backup

- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

If you still have the problem you likey have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

This worked for my Ipod Touch. It kept crashing in many of my Apps and after I did this reset it stopped crashing in one of my favorite Apps that I was not able to play. Thank you Apple people.
