I have an ipod and after using it with my sisters computer ,which we just found out had a virus, started acting weird it says that it needs to charge 5 minuts after disconnecting from the charger. It also skips songs not even palying a little bit just going to next song.My sister and cousin have had similar problems with their shuffles.Any information is greatly appreciated

I took it to best buy(where I bought it) once to get it fixed, when I got it back it worked fine but now it started it to act up again.They reboot it, I think that's what it's called but it is still acting weired.Should I take it back?or find somewhere else to get it fixed.

it is certainly possible, but very unlikely (I don't know of any reports of anyone seeing an iPod virus)
best bet is to reset the iPod (see the apple support website below to see how to reset your particular kind of iPod)
if that fails, try reloading the iPod software (also on the apple support website)
if neither of those help, try going to an Apple store - they have very good support people in the store (the in-store support is call the "Genius Bar") who you can talk to and can help fix most issues, or help you get a warranty replacement if your iPod is still under warranty.

in case you used your iPod as a storage gadget for data, it would desire to hold residing house windows viruses on it. The viruses does not impact the iPod. in case you in user-friendly terms have music data on the iPod from valid components, you have not something to stress approximately. in case you employ torrents or Limewire to get music data, those data might have residing house windows viruses in them.
