Connect Ipod video remote doc to TV

I have a problem with connecting my iPod to my tv. I connected my remote dock with a s-video cable to my TV but i get no sound or screen. Do i need extern power? Why do i don't get any signal? Anybody with answers?
Daniel

You did also connect the audio cable, correct?
The S-Video cable only carries the video signal.
Some televisisons will not display video unless they also have audio connected.
Also, make sure you have the correct source selected on your television.

Please HELP, "iTunes has stopped working" error after connecting iPod video

People please help me out! I have a Razer Blade gaming laptop with Windows 8 64bit.
I have an iPhone 5, iPad 2 and an iPod video (80GB). I had some weeks from not connecting the iPod to my computer, but this morning that I did so I can upload some new music to it, iTunes just crash, I get the "iTunes has stopped working" error message when I connect the iPod video. I do not have this problem with either the iPhone 5 or the iPad 2, when I connect these, iTunes works fine, once I connect the iPod, then all goes down
Procedures that I already tried and that were unsuccessful to solve the problem:
Uninstall Quicktime
Uninstall iTunes and reinstall
Reset the iPod (several times)
Delete TEMP files on computer
Restart the computer (several times)
Use a different cable and a different USB port
The iPod is working fine, if I plug it to my car stereo or if I use it with headphones it works great, no problems nor errors. My computer also identify the iPod as a hard disk, no error messages from Windows, it is just the freakin' iTunes that freezes everytime that I plug the iPod
PLEASE HELP ME OUT, I've searched forums on this particular issue but with no luck.
Thanks very much!

It is only when I attempt to add a song to my iPod once plugged in that I receive the error "Itunes has stopped working" and forces me to exit the program, without the song being successfully transferred.
Do you have the "Convert to 128 kbps AAC" preference enabled for syncing to the iPod, laur?
If so, it's quite plausible that you've got the iTunes 10.1.0.54 bug and we need to get you updated to 10.0.1.56 as per the following document:

Connecting ipod video to mac and windows???

I have recently purchased an ipod video, i have two computers, one mac and one windows, the mac has my music on and the windows has ripped dvd's on which can be converted to ipod video compatible files. can i connect my ipod to both computers and add the files i wish from each one???
Many Thanks

Yes.
There's two ways you can do this.
1. Format the iPod using the iPod Updater on the Windows XP machine. This will make the iPod Windows-formatted, and it can be used on a Mac or a Windows machine.
The downside to this is that performance will suffer on your Mac. Transfers and mounting times will be slower and longer.
2. Keep the iPod formatted for Mac. Since Windows cannot read an HFS+ volume natively, you'll install third-party software on the Windows machine (such as MacDrive) which will allow a Windows machine to read/write to a Mac formatted volume.
The downside to this option is cost and stability. MacDrive is not free, and who knows how Windows will behave in the long run.
Here's an article from Apple regarding using your ipod on multiple machines:

Trouble connecting ipod video to itunes

I recently had a problem with my ipod video (sad face, exclamation point blah blah blah) and exchanged it to get a brand new one at the apple store. I tried to connect my new ipod and here's what happened (and didn't happen):
(1) the screen on the ipod just shows the regular menu and shows the battery charging, then after a while goes to the "battery charging" screen.
(2) the ipod doesn't show up in itunes.
(3) I tried running diagnostics and ipod connection status is red and failed
(4) It doesn't show up in My Computer
(5) I've unistalled and reinstalled itunes, I can't restore my ipod because it wont show up in itunes. When i put it into disk mode, it just shows the "ok to disconect" screen.
*IT WOULD BE GREAT IF ANYONE COULD HELP BECAUSE THIS HAS BECOME FRUSTRATING!!*

You might want to exchange this one for another.

Connecting iPod video to Blaupunkt car stereo

Blaupunkt sells an adapter to connect iPods to their car stereo. Part number: 7607540500. It is compatible with the factory (Blaupunkt sourced) car stereo of my Fiat Panda model year 2005. The car stereo 'sees' the iPod as a Blaupunkt CD changer. It works well with the previous iPod but absolutely no-one can tell me if will work with the current video iPod that I'd like to purchase.

I talked to Blaupunkt support in the states and they say that they are aware of the problem! Now what kind of an answer is that? I agree with you, Blaupunkt should get on this problem and fix it. Blaupunkt catalog actually states that the Ipod interface works with any Blaupunkt head unit with CDC control since 1998+. On the interface box it says 2001+. The simple fact is they should get there "stuff" together and fix it!

Connecting Ipod Video to car stereo

Hi,
I have just bought a Goodmans GCE 7207i card stereo which has the ability to connect you Ipod and play you music library through the car stereo.
However, on the box of the stereo, it says it is compatable with the Ipod min and 3rd and 4th generation ipods. But I have a 5th generation video Ipod?
I am assuming that it says this on the box as when the stereo was manufactured , the Ipod nano / Video was not released.
My question is, does anyone know if this stereo is likely to be compatable with my ipod video. I am assuming it will be as it has the same connecter and if it was compatable with the Ipod photo then it will probably be compatable with the Ipod video.
If anyone has had any experience with this then please help me as i am wondering whether to return the Stereo before it is installed.
Thanks
steve

Oh! Sorry, I don't. I'm expressing how it should work. If you plug the AV Component connection into the touch, plug the connectors into the car DVD and the USB into the car power it should work.
I would try the AV Component connection at home first and when it is working there move it to the car without worrying about the power and then add the power.
make sense?
Sorry for giving you false hope.

Connecting iPod Video to mac

I have a black iPod Video 30 gb and recently when I try to connect it to my mac the ipod battery symbol says charging but nothing happens on the computer. The icon doesn't appear and iTunes doesn't recognize it. The symbol on the ipod that says do not disconnect also doesn't show up. I have tried it in both usb 2 ports and I have tried resetting the ipod and restarting the computer with it plugged in but to no avail. Does anybody have the same problem or can help?

This usually indicates that the iPod doesn't have enough of a charge yet to start up. Try plugging it in and leaving it plugged in for 15-20 minutes. It should automatically start up after it has a fair enough charge.

Error when connecting iPod Video

Hi
I have owned my iPod Video for a couple of months now, and my Macbook for 6 months. iTunes and iPod have been working well together, no problems. However today when I connected my iPod into my Macbook, iTunes freezes for about 5 seconds then "quits unexpectedly". I tried using both USB ports but with the same outcome. I have attempted this about 5 or 6 times now, each time iTunes freezing then quitting as soon as the iPod is connected. Any help would be much appreciated.
PS. Just tried copying a file to my iPod through Finder, and it copies fine. Seems to be an iTunes issue?

Thanks Zevoneer, but no real success. I did all that but when I tried to sync after it, it got partially through the sync (about 10% I'd guess) and presented an error message saying that the disk couldn't be read form or written to (sorry but I forgot the error number). I disconnected the iPod, waited a few minutes then reconnected and again got the message but then the ipod continued to finish the sync, even though almost all of the music and 2 of my 4 videos didn't go over to the iPod. I'm now thinking that this just isn't satisfactory reliability from the device since I use it a lot in my work and rely on it. But this new iPod is only a few months old, had very little use and only made about 12 recordings - In comparison, I've used the Nano heaps but now want to move over to the bigger one, basically for more capacity and bigger screen for video. I wonder if it's a hard drive failure in this iPod?

Connecting iPod/video to TV in Japan

I'll be traveling to Japan at the end of next month. Does anyone know anything about hooking an iPod video up to a Japanese television? I may be too exhausted from sightseeing to bother but it would be nice to know. Is it even possible?
I have an AV kit, random other cables and necessary charging apparatus.
Thanks

ITunes 11.1.1 freezes when I connect iPod Video

Ever since installing iTunes 11 on Windows 7 laptop, I can't plug in my iPod Video (5G) without crashing iTunes. Every update to iTunes does the same, including 11.1.1. My iPod works fine. iTunes 10 works fine (on a different computer). No way am I putting 11 on the other computer until this is resolved.

Well, I'm pleased to say that I solved the problem (but not the mystery). I tried all our Apple iDevices on my laptop (with iTunes 11.1.1), and they all worked OK, except the abovementioned 5G Video (including another 5G Video that I had). When the 2nd 5G Video worked, I realized the problem lied with the 1st iPod, so I did a "Restore" (to original settings), and that seemed to do the trick. I didn't think to do this before because the iPod worked fine otherwise, and worked with the old iTunes 10.7.
But here's the rub: I HAD to use the old iTunes 10 to do the restore...because iTunes 11 crashed before I could do a Restore. So, the mystery may never be solved, but at least all is now working.

Connecting ipod video to tv

Will a standard red, white and yellow cable (such as from a camcorder) work to connect the iPod to a tv? Or must I buy the pricy apple brand? Thank you

Connect iPod Videos to Car DVD Player

Which wire would I need so I could play my videos on my iPod through my car DVD player?

What video inputs does the car DVD player have? You can (depending upon the model iPod you have) purchase video-out connectors that have VGA, component and composite out. Some movies, depending upon the source, may have DRM protection that prevent using the VGA out.

Connecting iPod Video to a Beosound 3000 - How do i do ?

I have recieved a iPod AV connection kit but I can't use it on Bang and Olufsen system Beosound 3000 -
Do you know whar I need to get my iPod connected ?
Thanks

Hi - the problem are now solved. The problem was that the cable from the ipod ended in 3 plugs, and the Beosound did not have a connection to them, but only a 5 pole din connector. I found a converter cable, and the problem are solved.

Connecting IPOD video to surround sound HELP PLEASE!

Hi!
I have been trying to connect my ipod to my surrond sound system at home, but everytime I plug it in all it says is "Do not disconnect" and won't let me go to my menu to play songs. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I tried that but it didn't work... I need to get my ipod to not say "do not disconnect" in order to play from the menu.... does that make sense? It's plugged in correctly and is a brand new ipod so I'm not sure why it isn't working. I called apple, but since my surround sound is an RCA and not an apple device they can't help me....

Connect ipod video to usb port on home cinema receiver?

I am trying to connect my ipod to my samsung home cinema receiver via the usb port. When i do it just hangs, is this not possible?

I think you might be out of luck I'm afraid. The easiest way to connect it would be with a mini-jack to stereo RCA cable.
