My iPod Classic (160GB, 2009, 7th Gen.) will NOT output video to the TV.

I hook it up with the Composite AV cable (MC748ZM/A) and set the TV Out to "on", but it won't play. It just says "Please Connect Video Accessory". I've actually tried this on two iPods (identical models) and I get the same result on both ipods. I've tried 3 different TVs as well. Any suggestions?

Did you change the input on the TV to the appropriate Input Type that matched the A/V Inputs that your iPod was plugged into?

This is the iPod touch forum. I requested the moderators to move your post to the iPod classic forum.

I had this issue with my 6th generation nano. It was driving me nuts, until I realized that somehow locked the repeat button on. Selecting one song rather than a selection will cause whatever song you have selected to play over and over and over and over..

The iPod's screen indicates that the iPod is connected?
In Windows, the iPod will not appear as removable storage, unless it is set in iTunes to Enable disk use. By default, it is NOT set to Enable disk use.
In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. When the iPod is connected, it should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES. It does not appear there?

Can you elaborate a little? Are you saying that iPod keeps randomly jumping to another song midway through another? There could be many reasons for this.
The first thing you should do is try a hard reset of the device. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Also try the troubleshooting mentioned here.

Install the Canon EOS Utility that came with your camera. Also check for an updated version of the EOS Utility after the install. You need to install from the CD first before you can install any updates.

ITunes 11.1.5 says my iPod Classic (160gb) full when it is not!

I want to say that after iTunes (11.1.3?) my iPod Classic (160gb) will not sync anymore.
I have recently updated iTunes to latest version of 11.1.5 with no luck!
In short, I am using Windows 7 and cannot get my iPod to sync anymore.
I keep getting the error message that my iPod is full and cannot be synced unless I clear some space...and when I say 'space' it wants
another 20gb free to just add a few new albums that I downloaded.
The problem is that I still have 15gb free and IT IS NOT FULL. With a full capacity of 148gb, I have used ~130gb. Even in the info bar it shows the correct usage of space on my iPod and shows that there IS free space.
None of it makes any sense and it is completely in error on behalf of Apple.
Also, I am no novice to PC's and have tried everything short of re-installing iTunes, which I refuse to do.
My current PC build is and has the latest software and hardware available and everything up-to-date.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
If you need anymore info from me then just let me know.
Many thanks

First of all, let's get a few things straight.
me too said:
I purposely created several different threads because I wasn't sure which discussion to enter in and it is my opinion that it fit into any of these categories.
Actually, you posted the same thing into the iPod Classic forum four times, and one additional thread in (if I recall correctly) the iTunes for Windows forum. That's impolite; at best it simply clutters up the forum with unnecessary threads, which can cause other people's valid posts to be missed in the mass; and at worst, you'll get responses to more than one of your threads which will confuse, not just you, but anyone trying to help you. I've seen it happen.
I'll ask again, please refrain from multiple posting.
me too said:
I am also aware that the "other" is my album art.
No it is not.
There is always a small amount of Other on an iPod, but large amounts of Other indicates data that has become corrupted and cannot be used by the iPod.
Your screenshot, which finally confirms the actual message you are getting, suggests that despite what you may believe, you are trying to Sync at lest 22GB of media to your iPod. One album in .wav form would only take up about 700MB, so you have to work out what else is set to Sync. Check the photos pane (just along from Summary) to make sure that there isn't an album of photos set to Sync. Also check the other panes as well, for Podcasts, videos etc. that you may not have realised are set to Sync.
If all else fails, start taking music off your iPod, so that this unknown media can be put on. That way, at least you will be able to see what is being put on that you didn't know about. Then, you can take that off and put back on only what you want.
Let me just make a final suggestion: your comment ...
"None of it makes any sense and it is completely in error on behalf of Apple."
... isn't going to help you in any way. Stop blaming Apple and look for the actual problem. Once you find the problem, and can therefore see the cause, then - if you must - you can blame someone.

My ipod touch(3rd gen) will NOT update due to "The ipod software update server could not be contacted" Please help

I have quite literally tried everything. My ipod touch just will not update.
My internet connection is more than fine, my ipod functions as it should, and I can connect to the itunes store.
It will not, however, connect to the update server.
I have spent around 2 hours tonight troubleshooting and i still have nothing.
Please help.

In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

My iPod classic 7th Gen will not sync with my new computer. itunes is installed and updated.

fellow iPod classic owners,
                                       the problem is a failure to sync with the new computer. the conditions are as follows: the new computer is a pc. it has the latest iTunes software installed. the iPod is installed properly. i'm fully recognized by my iTunes account. there is nothing lacking other than my iPod's refusal to sync with my new computer. what have i left undone? i could be suffering from a duh, but i'm not the only one. nothing in the apple world is as difficult as this one is, at least on the surface. if it were that simple an issue, no one would be having any problems with it. any more information needed can be provided by request. by the way, the computer being used has been authorized. that is a non-issue.
                                                                                                             your help is appreciated,
                                                                                                                 hardphil.

I believe the IPOD (Classic) uses USB 2.0, and my new laptop uses USB 3.0. I think they are not compatable because of this. If you find a solution to this please let me know.
Thanks,

Sound difference between an ipod classic 160gb 2009 and an ipod 80gb

hi
iv had my ipod classic 80 gb since 2007 and just a couple of weeks ago i bought a pair of dr dre headphones solos and i tried them out on an ipod touch and the sound is much better and i was wondering if the sound would be better is i bought the newest ipod classic?

I have the Dr Dre beats headphones as well. I have the 160GB iPod Classic (2007) and I have the 64GB 3g iPod Touch. I think that the sound out of the iPod Classic is crisper and cleaner than the sound out of the iPod Touch. I did this comparison using the same settings (Equalizer was OFF) and same bit rate etc. The difference between the two machines was not great either however it was noticeable.
When you compare the two with your Dr Dre Solos are you using the same sound settings on the two iPods? Ensure that the Equalizer is either turned OFF or the same setting is used on both. The other thing is to check and see that the music that is used to compare with is using the same bit rate. In other words make sure that you comparing apples to apples.

IPod classic 160Gb 2009 starts tracks part way through

I restored my iPod a couple of months ago through iTunes so it's on the latest version available and all, and since then it's developed a minor but very annoying quirk of starting music tracks part way through when I skip to them - particularly noticable on playlists. What it's actually doing is resuming playback from points where I skipped them on a previous listen. Pretty much what you'd expect an audiobook to do, starting from where you left off. Which is great for audiobooks, but not what I want for my music tracks. I can't find any settings for turning this 'feature' off on the iPod or through iTunes, and I'm not sure it's supposed to be applied to music tracks anyway.
Before I resort to wiping the iPod and starting from scratch to see if that fixes the problem (because it takes hours to transfer all my music over again), does anyone else have any experience with this parrticular problem and know of a solution?
Thanks!

I've managed to fix this myself. Selecting all tracks from within iTunes, then right-clicking and hitting 'get info' and setting the 'remember playback postion' to 'no' for all mp3s has sorted the problem out. This would perhaps benefit from being an option in the iPod settings in addition to individual track settings so it's a bit more intuitive to find for those of us who aren't regular iTunes users!
The real mystery is why it was turned on for them all in the first place. From what I can gather it's something you're supposed to enable per track yourself, and so off by default. I certainly didn't turn it on, so I'm guessing it was a minor glitch in the Matrix.

IPod Classic songs were wiped out - will not sync with iTunes

iPod Classic turned on and has zero music - somehow wiped out. Will not sync to iTunes - iTunes freezes when iPod is connected but works fine when no iPod connected. iPod was reset to the original date of 2000 and mostly sits with the apple logo. iTunes has current version - tried resetting the iPod but iTunes still does NOT recognize the iPod.

Fixed it after some more fiddling - restored iPod from the frist sync a few days back, and then tried again.

IPod Touch (4th gen) will not sync music after the latest iTunes update

I'm using iTunes on a PC with Windows 7 and after the latest update (iTunes 11.2.2), it will not sync with my iPod touch 4 (also updated to the latest possible version - iOS 6.1.6).
Before the update there was no problem with the sync. And this iPod has always been synced only with this computer, and this iTunes library.
After the iTunes update, several songs on my iPod were greyed out and unplayable (the library plays fine in iTunes).
Now, when I try to sync, iTunes goes through all the steps, saying it finished syncing, without any error message but there is no actual change on the iPod.
I've tried deleting all the music on the iPod, to resync the entire music library anew.
Again, iTunes went through all the steps, finished "syncing" and nothing - and, of course, all the music on my iPod is now missing.
When I check the "On this iPod" option in iTunes, the entire song list shows up there but appears greyed out and unplayable.
On the actual iPod device, there is absolutely nothing in the Music app - no songs, no playlists.
The iPod always shows "no data" in the Music app.
Sometimes iTunes shows that I have 18GB of music on the device, sometimes it shows 0GB ...at one point it showed "no space available". But it has plenty of space - 23.5 GB of available space out of 32GB.
To fix this I've tried the following:
- automatic sync, manual sync, manually adding/deleting songs on the iPod, autofilling and replacing songs;
- resetting my iPod by holding the (on/off and home buttons) and resetting through the "reset all settings" option on my iPod;
- reset and restore from backup;
- uninstalled and re-installed iTunes on my PC.
- I've run the diagnostics tool in iTunes - all tests passed;
...plus various other suggested solutions I have found in the similar topics around here.
(I've checked and there are no restrictions to the songs, the computer is authorized, etc.)
Absolutely nothing works and it is very frustrating, as I usually only use the iPod for the music.
Please help.

Bought refurbished ipod classic, recognized by macbook, however will not sync.

-i created a new itunes library seperate from old ipod (so the 2 can both sync)
-i reinstalled itunes (however, was already at latest version)
-i factory reset ipod as i initially plugged it in
-after computer synced ipod, i ejected it and it did not contain any music
-plugged back in, have restored ipod at least 20 times in the past couple of days- nothing works
-the ipod screen when plugged in, is "connected" however rarely says "syncing" (when it does say "synching", it is only for a few seconds)
any help is greatly appreciated!!

This is a problem caused by 10.10.2, only way to fix it at the moment is to revert to 10.10.1.
Quite a few threads on it on other sites and only that one solution. Make sure you raise a feedback to apple though.
