IPod Classic 120GB ejects every time its connected and found by iTunes.

My iPod is about to drive me insane, I came home today and connected it to take a few songs off of it and change it so it wouldn't continue to sync my entire library. Upon doing so now every time I connect it it gets ejected before I can restore it because it won't stay connected. What can I do to stop this?

Okay I was lucky enough to be able to click restore and it was in the process when it disconnected so when I connected it again it restored it. What in the world caused this? Any ideas?

    iTunes states " There's a problem with your Iphone, please contact apple service center " Also i took my iphone to a local service man and he told me the IMEI code has been corrupted and there's nothing that can be done about it. Please help, if you have any solution.
    Thank you

    Okay, so my friends think it is funny to change the passcode on my iPhone.
    Maybe you should get new friends.
    I'm not sure that recovery mode works when you have to trust the computer, but did you try it?
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device - Apple Support
    If that won't work, perhaps you can use Find my iPhone from a computer in your iCloud.com account to erase the device.
    iCloud: Erase your device - Apple Support
    This has nothing to do with the Find my iPhone app being installed on the phone, but you do have to have Find my iPhone activated in the iCloud settings on the phone.

  • HT1364 I have moved my library to an external hard drive and changed the location of the iTunes media folder in Preferences, but every time I close and re-open iTunes, I have to do it all over again.  How can I make the iTunes media folder change permanen

    I have moved my library to an external hard drive and changed the location of the iTunes media folder in Preferences, but every time I close and re-open iTunes, I have to do it all over again.  How can I make the iTunes media folder change permanent?  I have an older machine with Windows XP.

    I don't believe mounting the hard drive should be necessary, unless you have several external drives and want your computer to recognise them as folders, rather than drives. I've never had to mount a hard drive, ever. If you don't know how to do it, then it shouldn't be necessary now.
    Try this:
    Prepare iTunes so that it can see the external drive.
    Make a note of which drive-letter the external drive has been allocated. (Look in Windows Exploer)
    Look at the file location for a song. Make sure it plays (and therefore that iTunes has found it). Highlight it and select File/Get Info/Summary>Where: and make a note of the drive letter for that song.
    Close and shut down the computer.
    The next time you turn the computer on again, connect the external drive
    Before you start iTunes - check the external drive in Windows Explorer. Is it ready, does it have the same drive-letter that it had last time? Can you go into the drive and see the files on it?
    Once you can, start iTunes. (If the drive lettter has changed, you need to work out why before going any further.)
    If iTunes fails to find your external drive, you need to check where iTunes is looking for your Library.
    Select the same song you checked before (presumably iTunes can no longer find it). Follow the procedure for locating it. You should be able to see where iTunes thinks the file is. It's the drive that counts. Which drive letter is iTunes looking at? Is it the same one that it was previously (which should also be the same one that the drive has now).
    What happens, which step do you have problems with?

  • New ipod classic crashes pc every time I plug it in

    I've been reading the forums, and know I'm not the only person experiencing this, but here goes...
    I bought a brand new 120gb ipod classic and downloaded itunes yesterday. I am running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 and the latest available download of itunes. I have the latest available drivers for my printer, webcam, and USB 2.0 card.
    I have tried plugging the ipod into my USB 2.0 hub, into the computer direct, into different USB ports, and disconnecting all other USB devices, all to no effect.
    Every time I plug in the ipod, Windows recognises that the Apple ipod USB Driver has been connected, then my computer restarts. I simply don't know what else to do. I've reset the ipod, what on earth do I try next? I've wasted a whole day, and it's made me absolutely miserable.
    Help, please.

    Hmmm... The guy writing that article indicates that the problem is to do with the Apple USB driver. It appears that for him, and many others, Apple's temporary fix of rolling back the USB driver from version 1.35 to version 1.29, has resolved the problem of Blue Screen Of Death.
    It hasn't fixed it for me. I've got the XP sp3 and the new iPod Classic 120GB, and I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it from the Apple website several times. I've checked, and my version of iTunes 8 has version 1.29 of the USB driver. I've tried with the iPod in disk mode too. But I keep getting the BSOD, with the message "IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL".
    However, my old iPod Photo 20GB from 3 years ago works fine!!!

  • Can I do a duplicate search to delete on my ipod classic 120gb only?  There are no duplicates on my itunes... I think these duplicates arose when I did a restore, and had to reload from the cloud, and my computer backup.... please help...

    I have an ipod classic 120gb...
    Somehow I have managed to get mutiple duplicates.....
    I had a computer crash... and I restore several songs from the cloud, and from my computer backup from an external drive...
    and also, from past purchases on itunes...... some songs I had loaded from my own cd collection....and songs had overlapped......
    I knew I had duplicates before the crash and never took care of it.... but now of course there are more...
    I have taken care of the duplicates in itunes, by deleting them one by one..... I made the mistake of checking boxes then highlighting and doing a mass delete... thinking it would only delete my check boxes.... and loss a lot of music... so had to restore backups again....
    so.......
    Ipod......... how do I delete duplicates from the ipod, without loosing music from my ipod... I have lost music that is still there I believe on the Ipod that is not on my itunes... but I am not sure...and I can not find a search duplicates in itunes for Ipod....  can anyone help me on this... is there a way to do it, without going through 8 days of music line by line??
    Thank you

    Restore the iPod and reload it from the library... Ah, but there might be media on the device that isn't in the library yes?
    See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device and a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates from iTunes if you end up needing to do a blanket recovery from the iPod. See this  thread for background on DeDuper.

  • I have had to reset my iPod Classic 160gb but each time I connect to my itunes it keeps saying it is in recovery and should be restored. When I restore it, it just tells me I need to restore it again. Can anyone help?

    I have a Sonos system with an ipod dock and was experiencing problems when using my ipod. The people at Sonos suggested resetting my ipod, so I did. Now, unfortunatey, my ipod isn't working properly. When I connected it to my itunes it said that it was in recovery mode and should be restored. I restored it and a message said it would appear in my itunes. But it just keeps saying that it needs to be restored. I've tried removing my itunes software and reloading it again but nothing changed.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • My iPod Classic 160GB has lost all its music and won't sync or restore

    My iPOD Classic 160GB has spontaneously lost all its music - approx. 5000 songs. One minute they were all there, now they're all gone - display says "No Music" although memory still shows 23GB in use? I tried to re-sync on iTunes but the iPod won't sync (error 1415) or restore (error 1439). As things currently stand,my iPod is just a very expensive paperweight - please can anybody help with this?

    hi lindsay
    i understand you have all your music still in your itunes library?
    Try the basic resetting of your ipod,also try another usb port.
    Have you tried ,when ipod is connected,click on your ipods name,for example lindsays ipod,another window should open up and you can see  summary,click on the sync box ,bottom right hand corner,see if this helps.
    Or you could ,when you have itunes open,click for updates.
    hope this may help you
    thanks madforit

  • ITunes 11.x resetting itself every time its closed and relaunched

    Itunes 11.x keeps resetting itself every time I close it and then later reopen. It prompts accepting the end user agreement, then upon entering, all the sync preferences are reset. Doesn't seem to effect backup of apps or music library. I'm using windows vista 64. Tried reinstalling several times removing every apple component including, all apple sub files, preference files in windows user folders, and all other apple folders, with no change upon reinstallation. Tried resetting sync history/cache in iTunes preferences, tried resetting admin rights in windows, tried enough to make this miserable. Can't find any solutions online though have found a lot of people complaining about the same issues with iTunes 11. Thought about removing 11 and installing older version though figured I'd try here first for a solution.
    Thank you for the help...

  • Why is it that every time I connect my iphone into itunes, it always asks me if i want to "Set up as a new phone" or "restore from backup"?

    Every time I plug in my iPhone 4 into iTunes, it always asks me if i want to "Set up as a new phone" or "restore from backup". But every time i click on restore from back up it deletes everything & that iTunes message is still there. Is something wrong with iTunes?

    Apparently it does need to be restored because that is what it is requesting. You will need to restore it as New or from a recent backup if you made one.

  • Every time I connect and disconnect my iphone/ipad windows vista opens windows media player in the background.  It then hogs all of my cpu.  Does this happen to anyone else?

    I am running iOS 4.3.5 and this has been going on for months now.  I need to keep my task manager open to kill the task when I connect and disconnect my iphone or ipad.  It hogs all of my cpu, sometimes opening 2 or 3 windows media players.

    Sorry, just to confirm, I DID NOT ACTUALLY ANSWER MY OWN QUESTION!
    I replied to the previous message from my iphone and I managed to hit the link to "This has answered my question" by accident!
    I AM STILL LOOKING FOR A RESOLUTION TO MY ORIGINAL PROBLEM. CAN SOMEONE ALSO NIW TELL ME HOW TO GET RID OF THE GREEN TEXT TGAT SAYS TGAT MY QUESTION IS ANSWERED? That is a pain! It should at least ask you to confirm that your question is actually answered and you didn't hit it by mistake, like I did!

  • My iPod touch won't sync, update anything & my iTunes freezes every time its connected

    Evening,
    I went to upgrade my iTouch after finding I couldn't get an app because I didn't have the latest software. When I connected it at first it said my iTouch was unresponsive. This happened a few times till I I read online to restart my iPod and everything. So I did that and checked that I had the latest iTunes and it finally sync'd. Now it has been saying verifying iPod touch for an hour and iTunes has frozen.
    Very frustrating because there is so much information but none of it is working for me.
    Thank you v much.
