iPod touch 4G acting slow

[TheVince]

My iPod touch has been acting slow and crashing a lot lately. Does anybody know any ways to speed it up or how to stop apps from running in the background

Try hard-resetting your iPod Touch. To do this you will need to press and hold on the Home and Power buttons, do not release either button until you see the White Apple logo. This usually fixes a lot of things, if it doesn't you may need to consider a restore.
