Tom Tom ONE Version 3

My Tom Tom keeps closing down the screen after 10 seconds or so but is still on. If I touch the screen it resumes briefly. The Tom Tom is still on with the blank screen and provides voice directions with the screen blank. I have only had it several weeks. On some occasions it might last for say 10 mins or so and then switch off.
I have checked the Planning Preference screen and the Route summary screen is marked No not to turn off after 10 seconds.
Any solutions would be appreciated.

Try to start to the system in safe mode to check if this will resolve the problem.Safe mode is available to PS3 system software version 2.60 or later. To do the safe mode follow these steps:
  1. Verify that the power indicator on the PS3 system is solid red, and then turn off the MAIN POWER switch.
  2. Turn on the MAIN POWER switch, then touch and hold the power button.
  3. Keep touching the power button even after you hear a short beep after 5 seconds.
  4. After 10 seconds, you will hear another short beep and the system will shut down (release the button at this point).
  5. Touch and hold the power button again.
  6. Continue touching the power button even after you hear a short beep after 5 seconds.
  7. Release the button when two short beeps are emitted after 7 seconds.
  8. As instructed by the on-screen message, press the PS button to start up in safe mode

When i connect my ipod touch all it does its a little sound and then like 9 seconds after it does the same thing but itunes does not recognize my ipod and i dont know whats going on can someone help

Try restoring your iPod. Firstly, make sure you have the same (or above) version of firmware on your computer somewhere. By doing the next step, you need to know that all data and settings will be erased from your device. If you are OK with this, put your iTouch into DFU mode by:
1. Plugging your device into your computer.
2. Holding down the power button for 3 seconds.
3. Without releasing the power button, hold down the home button for 10 seconds.
4. Release the power button, but keep holding the home button for 30 seconds.

Next, go to the iPod Touch panel in iTunes, and click on the "Restore" button. Now follow the on-screen prompts.

If you want to restore your firmware to a specific firmware (advanced users), shift-click the "Restore" button and select an ISPW firmware file to update it to.

Error (13) in itouch keeps showing when restoring, HELP!!!! how can i fix my itouch out of this freezed screen displaying a cd and usb port.....PLEASE!!!

From Apple Website 1. Restart your computer (yes, you have too)
2. plug in your ipod touch (it should have the usb cord and itunes picture on the screen)
3. open itunes.
4. itunes will recognize the ipod. just ignore the message, and then hold down the home and hold button (on the top) for about 10 seconds, and after you count to 10, release the top hold button, but still holding home.
5. itunes will pick up the ipod, and once it does, release home.
6. Now click restore, and everything should work fine.
(if problem persists, try turning off firewall, and close all other programs)
