  • IPod Classic' Click Wheel Sensitivity

    I just got iPod Classic 80Gb. The click wheel is so bad. Sometimes it doesn't work. I have read in this forum about this issue and found a lot of people also have this issue. I was thinking to exchange with the new one because I still have the warranty. Do you think I just wait for the firmwire fixes it or just exchange it. Is it possible to exchange with this issue? I had iPod Video 30Gb 5th generation and it was a lot easier to adjust with the click wheel.
    Thanks,

    That may work for some, but for me it is the opoposite. If my fingers are too dry (I tend to have very dry skin) I need to add a little oil or just a lick of my finger in order to get the wheel to respond better. Yes, I have the latest firmware.
    So if the above cleaning does not work for you, try the opposite - add a bit of moisture to your finger.

    "I noticed that the latest firmware seemed to make navigation with the click wheel more precise and less sluggish. Additionally I suppose (not sure though) that the technology behind a click wheel is similar to that behind the laptops' touchpads or trackpads. Advices like those below work for me:
    http://tech.yahoo.com/gd/cleaning-your-laptop-s-touchpad/153160
    *Carefully clean finger oils and dirt from your laptop's touchpad with a damp cloth; you can also add a small amount - less than 50 percent of the solution - of isopropyl alcohol.
    Touchpads are sealed, so you probably don't have to worry about a touchpad problem developing because of dirt or dust. Touchpads can become slippery or sticky from the transfer of oils or other substances from the fingers of those troublesome humans who use them, though")

  • Ipod classic 80gb shows blank white screen

    I have an Ipod classic 80gb. I was having sync issues w/ itunes so I restored it using the itunes restore button. All good, it said it was updating my Ipod software and all went well. Then upon restart of the Ipod at the completion of the software update, no apple icon or anything. Just a blank white screen. The click wheel and all buttons still function as does the hold switch. I have tried resetting it (Menu and select) numerous times to no avail. I have tried restoring it and everything else with no result either. Connect it to my computer, Itunes sees it, syncs with it and all is well, just a blank white screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I also have this problem. I've been living with it for about 3-4 months. My iPod classic 60gb will happily play music, connect to computers, and do every other function is has...the problem is I can't see what functions I'm selecting because of the blank screen - the back light is on, but none of the details seems to get loaded.
    So in theory, it's like using my iPod with my eyes shut - blindly navigating.
    This started happening around the time I got a car fm transmitter to use with it, so possibly the use of this may have corrupted the display?
    I'm still at a loss of how to fix this, other than taking it to get repaired somehow. Anyone else having this problem, or have a solution?

  • IPod Classic 80GB - "iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" It says it has synced but it hasn't. Help please I am not very tech minded

    iPod Classic 80GB. Message reads ' iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation'.  It says it has synced but it hasn't. Please help, I am not very tech minded.

    See this article about troubleshooting the error message regarding access privelages.  It may be preventing your iTunes library from being able to save/retain music you have recently imported to it, which may explain why no new content is being added to your device.

  • How can I get an album from my iPod Classic 80GB onto my refurbished MacBook Air?

    Hi there
    I have a new to me refurbished MacBook Air and an old iPod Classic 80GB.  I've somehow managed to get my music off my iPod onto my laptop apart from one album which doesn't seem to have copied across.  Please could anyone tell me how to do this?  On my ancient iBook, back in the day, you could just drag music across to copy it but that doesn't work here.  I've looked on Help about backing up, but it's a bit cond=fusing as the set up isn't the same the Help section mentions, although I must have managed to back up to have the rest of my music on my laptop at all.
    Also, please could someone explain syncing to me?  I've looked on Help, but i still don't know what it means.
    Sorry if these are stupid questions, I'm not that clued up technically, thought trying to educate myself bit by bit now I have my own laptop.
    Thank you in advance.

    Ps Just to add a bit more information, I just realised there are loads of albums on my iPod I don't have on iTunes on my laptop.  I wonder if the ones that /are/ on my laptop got there are there because there got there via me having the same apple id.  I don't know if that's a ridiculous suggestion, but thought I'd better mention it. 

  • My apple ipod classic 80gb says there is no music - anything on my ipod, but says it only has 37gb free. Then i try and plug it into my pc with iTunes on (i've set it to do not automatically sync devices) but it still freezes every time. can't restore.

    my apple ipod classic 80gb says there is no music - anything on my ipod, but says it only has 37gb free. Then i try and plug it into my pc with iTunes on (i've set it to do not automatically sync devices) but it still freezes every time. the only way to unfreeze it is by detatching the ipod or resetting with menu/centre (until it loads up again, where it immediately unfreezes and comes up with a load of messages saying "cannot read iPod" and when i try and restore it by pressing menu/centre button while it's plugged in, it says "cannot restore as it is being used by another program" or "error 1415". Any ideas how to sort this out? hope i haven't majorly screwed it up. thanks.

    Sorted it out.

  • IPod classic 80GB suddenly stops showing on iTunes both on explorer and finder (I use windows 7 and Mac OSX) Any help?Tried everything nothing works!!!

    Hello everyone.
    I have bought an (admittedly used) iPod classic 80GB on New Year's this year.For the better part of this month it was working beautifully.I was lucky that I got it.But just a week ago,it started bugging out.It would mount on iTunes and I would drag and drop music and videos on it but could only do it one at a time or it froze.This continued on for a couple days then finally yesterday it won't show on itunes at all.I tried resetting it,changing usb ports but it still wouldn't show except on plugged devices on ''Computer'' and on Finder (I have been trying to make it show on my macbook as well with no luck either)
    I ever resorted to trying to remove completely and reinstall iTunes.still won't show and unfortunately for some reason whenever I try to reinstall it now on my windows 7 it says something about it ''missing a key'' and stopping the installation.
    Can anyone offer me any solutions?I am growing pretty desperate here as the last time i managed to do a ''drag and drop'' to put my videos and music in it,any movie I dropped into the iPod,even though it shows on the device,it won't play at all -.-
    PS.The ipod had been updated and formatted on my windows 7 if that helps any....
    PS2.I had restored my iPod twice both on Windows 7 and on my MacBook when the freezing issue had happened when i plugged it in on my PC.It is currently updated and formatted on windows
    PS3.iPod is on disk mode already and now still can't reinstall itunes 11
    SOS Someone help me Offer me some solutions other than the ones I've already tried??

    I am still having the problem. I have noticed a pattern to the seemingly random freezes.
    The iPod is stopping to Sync at almost predictable points during the sync. The first stoppage occurs around the 1.9GB part of the sync. This has not always been the same file but it is always around the same place.
    When I sync in small chunks the freeze occurs at almost the same place every time. As soon as it freezes, iTunes is toast and the entire computer needs to be restarted.
    Anyways, the freeze happens around every 2GB's of data transferred. It does not have to be in one chunk, it is almost like it is happening on the iPod. Like the iPod is kicking itself out of the sync at certain points along it's hard drive or something. Once it freezes and I restart the computer, I can transfer another 2 GB before it freezes again... then restart, repeat. Finally I was able to load up the 14.8 GB I had in my iTunes. Several hours later... not sure if I should take the iPod back or not. If it is the iPod and that fixes the problem great... but if it is my machine, I get another 3-4 hours syncing and restarting my computer. Wheeee!

  • Ipod Classic 80gb won´t work with apple universal dock and remote

    I own 2 ipods a 5th generation 60gb and an ipod classic 60gb. I've just bought an apple universal dock with remote and the original apple component and composite AV cables. I connected the universal dock to my TV via the composite cable, with my ipod 5th gen I can watch videos on the TV and control the ipod with the apple remote but when I connect my ipod classic to the universal dock it will charge but I can´t get any video out or control the ipod with the remote. It's as if the ipod classic doesn't recognize the universal dock and it keeps showing the connect the video accessory screen, even when i tried using the apple component AV cable. I dont think the problem is with the universal dock because it works fine with my Ipod video 60gb, but with my Ipod Classic 80gb the remote control and video out won't work at all, i can´t even control the playback of audio playlists. Does anyone know why that is happenning? Please help me!

    I have the Classic 80gb also...same probem. I retuned the Apple Universal Dock and purchased one that was half the price. Pluged it in and it works perfectly! So my advice would be to save some money and get products that work.

  • Please tell me which Ipod dock adapter is compatible with the Ipod Classic 80GB?  They no longer make this particular Ipod and I need the right dock adapter for my Panasonic SC-HC25 stereo system I recently purchased.

    refer to this Apple support Article, on Universal Dock which retail at $59 at Apple store.

    Look through the compatible list chart and see which 80GB model are you using, either ID 9 or 10. you can order through Apple Online Store.

  • How come my ipod classic 80gb wont show up on my computer or itunes

    can anyone tell me why my ipod classic 80gb wont show up on my computer anywhere

    Hi lllaass,
    Do you know of any solutions to restore my ipod touch generation 1 or 2 I think.  Itunes says it cannot restore and now it won't work?  Do I have to go to an apple store or do you have any advise?
    Thanks!

  • IPod Classic 80Gb, wont show up in iTunes 8, but does in Finder

    Just plugged my iPod classic 80Gb in and it wont show in iTunes 8, although it shows up in Finder
    Tried a iPod reset. restarted my Mac but no good.
    Come on man I need to do a sync....

    I have a similar problem.
    This morning, all music was gone from my iPod, just like that. I had been having troubles with playing a couple of songs last night if that's connected. Anyway, I connect it to my Macbook. I try to reset it through iTunes and that was done, I pressed eject and ejected it when it said OK to disconnect -- although when I did so it said it wasn't ejected properly. Now when I connect it appears in Finder as a device (like that thingy that appears when you install stuff, a white thing) but it doesn't in iTunes. In fact, as soon as I plug it in iTunes freezes and I can't open it or do anything in there, the marker just shows that it's loading.
    What do I do?

  • My ipod classic 80gb is not showing my music lists on my laptop

    My ipod classic 80gb is not displaying my music lists on my laptop after logging in to itunes !!!!

    Your "music list" in iTunes is in your iTunes library, not your iPod, so I don't understand what you are describing.
    In iTunes, select Music under LIBRARY in the iTunes sidebar.
    NOTE:  If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    That is your list of songs in iTunes, and it is there whether your iPod is connected or not. 
    When you connect the iPod, it should appear under DEVICES in the sidebar.  Click the small triangle to the left of the iPod name, to drop down the iPod's content list (indented below the iPod).  Click on Music there.  To the right, the list of songs on the iPod is shown.  That list is separate from your iTunes library music list.
    Can you describe the problem in your problem in more detail?

  • I traded my iPod Classic 80GB at the apple store for a junk one.

    I recently traded my iPod Classic 80GB for a new one because my friends dock messed up my iPod. Then I received a "new one" (notice the quotes). This didn't seem like it was new. I got home and synchronized it to my iTunes. I ejected it properly and all the stuff like that. I picked a song and it played properly but, when i pressed the menu button it did nothing. So, I kept pressing it and eventually got it when I pressed it very hard, which shouldn't happen. I tested all the other buttons and i realized that the menu button didn't work properly, the play/pause button wasn't stable (you have to press it hard and hold it completely still until it turned off or played a song, the next song button didnt work, the iPod could not reset because of the broken buttons and everything was "laggy." (Meaning that the scrolling the volume up and down had a slow, very choppy movements). Also when it would go to another screen it would take about 3-7 seconds to react. When I tested my friends iPod Classic 80GB, it did not do any of this. Just the other day I tried to reset it (holding down the play/pause button and the center button) then all the buttons stopped working. I pressed every single button it did not work. It didn't even reset. Would I get a new one if I brought it back to the apple store?

    The entire point of any warranty is that it guarantees against manufacturer defect for the term of the warranty.  There is no guarantee past the warranty period.  This is the way a warranty works.

On restoring it tells : unable to restore as this has files that are in use by another application. I have no idea what to do now. Pl advise. Thanks

    Try disabling any and all A/V or security software you are running on your system and see if that helps.
