Can I leave iPod in car in winter?

I just bought a the KCA-420i box for my Alpine IVA-D300 to enable me to control my 80GB iPod via the touch screen display. I'm wondering if it's bad for the screen/battery to leave the iPod in the car during winter. It gets pretty cold here! I'd say an average of 0 degrees..but can get down to 30 below. I was going to put it in the glove box, but if I can't leave it in the car, I will probably explore other options for mounting etc. Thanks!
Joel

you should not leave your ipod in the car if it gets below 32F..
bad idea.

  • Help w/ fixing my broken ipod touch. I have to double click on an app in order to open it, can't leave the home screen, apps don't work!

    I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave my home screen unless I press n hold an app and move it to another page, then when i press the home button so the apps stop shaking I can stay on another page. Other than doing it that way I can't scroll from one page to another. When I click on an app a thin box appears around it, not only with apps but when I click on the time or battery or ANYTHING! In order for me to open any of the apps I have to double click on it and then when it opens I can't do anything in the app. Even when I went to settings to see if there was something in there to fix this problem I can't go anywhere or do anything. Someone please help!!!

    Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
    Anyone help you with your fix yet?

  • Can I leave docked to speakers?  dock connector -- 1/8" plug?

    I have two quick questions.
    1. First off I got a speaker system where I can dock my iPod into the speaker system for Christmas. The dock also charges the iPod. Can I just leave the iPod in there all the time whenever I don't take it with me, or will leaving it in the dock with the charge somehow wear down the longevity battery at all?
    2. I have a car with an 1/8" plug input for mp3 players, but lining out from the headphone jack on the iPod doesn't sound all that great and is very quiet. Is there a dock connector to 1/8" wire out there somewhere that I can use to hopefully increase the sound quality and volume?

    1) It's fine to leave it charged. Just make sure that the battery is drained and then charged all the way up once a month if you rarely take it out and use the battery.

    2) I'm not aware of any, but you could purchase an iPod dock. The line out on that is better, as it goes through the dock. The Universal Dock has a line out port you could use, and it does what you want it to, in a way.
    You could also try an FM transmitter, or try raising the volume slightly on your iPod (not above 1/2-3/4 though).

  • Can't mount IPOD!  What a great XMAS GIFT! My computer sees the Ipod but..

    I am extremely upset. I have tried the FAQ on this issue to no prevail. The ipod is detected in My Computer, however, Itunes and updater will not detect the ipod. I have reinstalled and reinstalled and have followed the so called idiot proof 5r's. I want this to work, TONIGHT! Please help! In addition, not htis may matter, I have downloaded all new versions of itunes and updater. Updater reurns this message, Can't mount Ipod. However, I can see the ipod as a C: drive in my computer. I have also tied to transfer music files from my computer to the ipod via the send to option while right clickign, It seems to work successfully, however, i can not find them on the ipod itself. If i look into the about section in the ipod, these sogns and videos that i just transfered usign this method do nto appear. Someone please jsut reply and guide me to thsi right directon... the answer may be the best christmas gift yet!

    ANYONE who has a there local drive labeled other than c: drive will have this problem. I spent the past 2 hours on the phone with a customer technical representative named Sathish, ID # 7556. He was extremely helpful and would not let me get off the phone until this problem was fixed. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Okay to the point. My main local drive is labeled as F: instead of the typical C: drive configuration. As a result, once the IPOD is connected to the computer, the updater will not recognize the IPOD because of its drive letter being c: APPLE PLEASE TAKE NOTE!
    This is a flaw in the updater software. Apple needs to fix this immediately.
    To resolve this problem, you need to do the following:
    Go to my Computer and right click and select manage. Choose Disk Management and right click the Ipod and change the letter to anything after the letter I: to be safe. Restart the computer. Obviously, make sure you have downloaded the correct and updated version of updater and Itunes. Run the updater. It will recognize it this time. Next, we turned the Ipod into disk mode. This was a bit tricky, we toggled the Hold button, and then held the Menu and Select button until the Apple appears on the Ipod. Once it appears, hold down the Select button, “the middle button” and the play/pause button until t changes to disk mode. It will turn black and white. Then go back to the updater and select restore. Once it is resorted uninstall Itunes. Restart the computer and reinstall Itunes and it will be detected! YEAH!!!! Have fun Ipoding!
    Once again, although I expected this product to work right away, and it is Apples mistake with their Ipod updater software, I thank Satish ID# 7556 and I would hope that Apple provide him with a extended vacation, paid of course for his sincere effort to resolve this problem and not blame it on me or my computer, as another Microsoft company often does! Thank you very much and by the way, this Ipod is awesome! Mp3’s. contacts, video and a photo library! I cannot wait till the next Ipod which better have Wifi access instead of plugging everything in! Imagine this, leaving you ipod docked in your car in the garage, you turn on your computer and it automatically updates your Ipod! YEAH!!!! Soon I hope!

  • Can I use iPod for time machine back up?

    I have several iPods that I don't use, and would like to use them as time machine back up drives, for multiple computers.
    They are 30gb iPod videos. I am aware they aren't as reliable as an actual external hard drive and that this much read/write can cause the iPod to burn out, but for these purposes I don't care.
    I have 300 computers that I want to restore to one master, as they are all used for the same purpose, but currently they all have OS 10.5.x of varying versions. I currently use a time machine backup on an external hard drive to restore the systems, but I have 15 iPod videos, and I would like to use 2-3 of them, to speed the process up.
    I use carbon copy cloner once I get a system restored, to restore the stations around it, but time machine is about 15% faster than using CCC, so I would like to use these iPods to increase my ability to restore these systems on a regular basis without having to buy external hard drives or enclosures to make external HDs.
    I have tried:
    Erasing the iPod in disk utility.
    -It will erase the volume as HFS+ (extended journaled) but it won't erase the main device as it shows in Disk utility, it consistently stays as Fat32.
    --Same idea if I recreate the partition. I tried GUID partition scheme, Apple Partition Map and Master boot record, but all produce the same result.
    I also selected the iPod and attempted a zero-out of the whole iPod using the security options in disk utility. The system still will not let me use it for time machine.
    Has anyone been able to use an iPod for backup? Are there any other techniques anyone can suggest to get this iPod to work?
    Thanks for your help.

    And to clarify, originally I made sure disk usage was enabled on the iPod.
    I have also tried dragging and dropping the contents of a time machine backup to the iPod, but it's still not seen as a backup volume. I suspect there are some hidden files that enable a volume as time machine capable. Any ideas on how to maybe copy the hidden files or any other methods that might work?

  • Can an older IPod (click wheel) be used with a wireless/bluetooth speaker? If so, how?

    There is no doubt you can.
    When you say photos stored on it.. in what form are these photos?? Is this your iphoto library?
    If so using iphoto library on the TC has risks.. not necessarily viewing photos .. that should be fine. But if you have photos you are editing and wireless comms drop out leaving the library with a file open, it is likely to corrupt your library. Please check with the iphoto people on the discussion board if you want to go ahead for the dangers of using iphoto on any network drive.
    The TC is not designed as a NAS .. in particular it cannot back itself up, nor can Time Machine backup the TC. So any files on the TC are at risk. If you manage to corrupt the iphoto library without a current backup... does that worry you??

  • Dock vs. Mono to RCA Output for iPodding my car

    I'm putting an interface in my car that adds RCA input so I can play my iPod, now the only thing to do is get an RCA converter cord for the iPod. I've looked around, and found that in addition to the normal mono (headphone port) to RCA converter cords, there are now iPod dock to RCA cords, for essentially the same price. Does anyone know if there is any difference in quality between the two? With the mono cord, I'd have greater flexibility, and could plug it in to things besides the iPod, but if the sound would be bad compared to the dock cord, I might go with that. Thanks!

    I've looked around, and found that in addition to the normal mono (headphone port)
    Uh, the headphone port is stereo, not mono.
    With the mono cord, I'd have greater flexibility, and could plug it in to things besides the iPod
    I wouldn't plug in anything with mono.
    Why not just use the stereo RCA plugs and adapter?

  • Can I purchase an Apple Care extended warranty for an iPad Air if I purchase it at Best Buy?

    CAn I buy an Apple Care extended warranty for an iPad Air if I purchase it at Best Buy?

    For me? Buying from best buy was my only option since the closest apple store is over an hour away. (and technically in another state)
    Also, when I bought my iPod the warranty that Best Buy offered was far more comprehensive than Apple Care with accidental damage protection for up to 3 years.
    And, when my iPad's charging port messed up, I took it into Best Buy and they swapped me out for a new one while at an Apple store I likely would have gotten a refurb.
    When I swapped out my iPod 4 for my iPod 5 I took it into best buy, got $70 towards the purchase of the new device by trading in the old one.
    Best Buy isn't perfect and not every store is a good one, but they are a good alternative or other option to explore for those buying devices.
    I think my biggest beef when buying my iPad and later iPod at Best Buy is when I bought my iPad I bought the screen protector and they wanted to charge me to apply it...and it kinda rankled for me to be plunking down over $600 dollars to have them want to charge me $15 for a screen protector install.

  • How to play Ipod in car?

    I'm wanting to know how I can play my Ipod in the car? The car doesn't have an auxillary port, nor does it have a cassette tape player and I'd rather have something that I can bring with me on car trips. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

    You could get an FM transmitter. It broadcasts you music over the radio so you can just tune to that station on your car's radio. It won't sound as clear as an auxillary port, but it will work. Here's one sold in the Apple online Store: http://store.apple.com/us/product/TX467VC/B?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY

  • Can't mount ipod

    my ipod's a year and a half old. he never gave me any real problems until a month and a half ago, and that was just freezing until the battery died. it was fine from that point on until last night, when it just randomly died while i was playing it through my car's stero. i let the battery drain itself again this time, and now i'm just getting a parade of screens that show the apple icon, the file folder icon, and -- when i tried restoring the ipod through my computer -- the "do not disconnect screen."
    i tried restoring my ipod with the ipod updater, and all it's saying is "can't mount ipod." i don't know what that means and i don't know what to do about it. can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks. xoxo

    Hi there-
    For "can't mount iPod" there are usually 2 things you can do to take care of it.
    First, try changing the iPod's drive letter. This article explains how to do that:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499
    Then try to restore again.
    If that doesn't work, go through the steps in this article, restart the computer when prompted to do so, and then try the restore again:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
    This ought to allow you to restore your iPod.
    Feel free to post back if you have any more problems or questions.
    Best wishes,

  • Can't Restore iPod 3G

    After transferring some songs to the iPod I noticed that it was making a clicking sound as if the drive was spinning up and trying to engage but not able to (clicking) then spinning back up again and clicking and repeating indefinitely. I could not restore via iTunes. Got a message saying:
    "iPod could not be restored. Unknow error (1429)."
    Even the Disk Utility could not recognize the drive.
    Any ideas?

    From all the experience I received from this forum, I believe that the Apple's geniuses would not do anything other than to Restore the iPod back to the factory setting. If they can't get the iPod mounted with their computer, then they will describe it as a hard drive problem.
    The iPod with folder with exclamation icon = the iPod OS get corrupted and not able to boot up the iPod
    The Sad iPod icon = some problem with the hard drive, likely the head of the hard drive get stuck at the certain point or some bad sectors on the HD. It can be solved as the ordinary HD, the key is to get the iPod mounted and allow you to do the format (not Restore).
    For further info, you can have a read the following, and click the links below, which would give you more understanding
    Hello,
    If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
    Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
    A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    For old and other versions of iPod updater for window you can get here
    http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
    F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
    Intermediate Level
    A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
    B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
    For Mac computer
    1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
    2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
    3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
    4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
    5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    For Window computer
    Go to folder “My Computer”
    Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
    Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
    Now select “Format”
    Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.

    C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    Advance Level
    A. Diagnostic mode solution
    If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
    You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
    Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
    iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
    The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
    iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
    You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
    Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
    B. Format your iPod with a start disk
    I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
    If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
    Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ at your own risk
    http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
    Just in case that you are at the following situation
    Your iPod warranty is expired
    You don’t want to pay any service charges
    You are prepared to buy a new one
    You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
    Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
    You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
    Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
    Last Resort Level
    1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
    In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)

    2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
    Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.
    2. Do a search on Google and some topics on this discussion forum about “Sad iPod”

    Finally, I read a fair comments from dwb, regarding of slapping the back of the iPod multiple times
    Quote “This has been discussed numerous times as a 'fix'. It does work, at least for a while. In fact I remember using the same basic trick to revive Seagate and Quantam drives back in the mid to late 1980's. Why these tiny hard drives go bad I don't know - could be the actuator gets stuck in place or misaligned. Could be the platter gets stuck or the motor gets stuck. 'Stiction' was a problem for drives back in the 80's. Unfortunately the fix can cause damage to the platter so we temporarily fix one problem by creating another. But I know of two instances where a little slap onto the table revived the iPods and they are still worked a year or more later.”UnQuote

  • 2 mistakes:  Deleted Limewire library/ipod in car

    Thinking it might save computer space, I deleted songs off limewire library after they'd been uploaded to my ipod. Now a checkmark appears next to these songs on my ipod library. Does this mean they are gone from ipod as well?
    I cannot tell right now as I've been having trouble playing ipod. I tend to listen in the car. I'm afraid I've made the mistake in leaving ipod in the car while @ work.
    How crucial is it to keep ipod away from heat?????????
    Is there a way to get limewire tunes back?
    Right now I'm adding some new songs and also charging battery and hoping ipod will work now.
    please advise,

    I had the same problem when connecting my 60GB iPod with iTunes 7, but I could get through it.
    I cannot explain precisely what the cause was, however this is what I did:
    1) uninstall iTunes 7 from Control Panel, then reboot;
    2) connected iPod to PC without iTunes (mainly because I had all my summer pictures stored in it and wanted to copy them in a safer place, which I succeded at)
    3) disconnected iPod from PC (with Safely Remove HW)
    4) installed again iTunes 6.x (found link to download setup.exe in one post in this forum)
    5) connected iPod: everything ok
    6) installed iTunes 7 with iPod connected (but iTunes 6 obviously closed): after installation it prompted that iPod needed to have SW upgraded to 1.2, which it did in the usual way
    (actually, I had no intention to install iTunes 7 again, but some podcasts I had found in the Store did not sync "because iPod SW is too old")
    Hope this helps.
