Does the Ipod Classic 120 GB still connect to itunes? Because mine will not show up at all in itunes!

My Ipod classic will not show up in itunes at all but it says its charging and that it is connected to the computer! I have my itunes updated fully and it still does not work! So i am thinking that maybe its not able to connect anymore because of the new usb connecters or the version of itunes! But i dont know so i really hope i can get this resolved!

Hello Riio312,
I would be concerned too if my iPod was not recognized by iTunes.  I found a couple of articles that might help with this. 
If you don't see your iPod in the My Computer section of Windows, follow the steps in this article:
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows

If Windows recognizes your iPod but iTunes does not, follow the steps in this article:
iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

    Transfer all of your content to the computer:

    Then try turning the device off and on again. I'd leave it off for 10-15 minutes, but that is up to you:

    If the item is still there, you may need to restore the device:

    Hope that helps . Worst case scenario, you may need to write into iTunes support to see if they can also help!!

  • Does the iPod Classic 7th generation support movies in the HD format?

    Does the iPod Classic 7th generation support movies in the HD format as well as SD or just SD?

    No, the max resolution for video playback is generally 640x480, as stated in the specs
    http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/specs.html
    The screen is actually half of that resolution, at 320x240.  HD at 720p is 1280x720.  HD at 1080p is 1920x1080

  • I recently updated my Mid 2007 iMac with the latest OS 10.8.5 now my external hard drives will not show up. They show up when I boot them up on a machine running and earlier OS. Is there a fix for this?

    I recently updated my 20-inch, Mid 2007 iMac with the latest OS 10.8.5 now my external hard drives will not show up. They show up when I boot them up on a machine running and earlier OS. Is there a fix for this?

    Can you see them in Disk Utility?
    If so, can you select and Mount them?
    If not, disconnect them, reset the iMac's SMC and then reconnect them.
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
    3. Wait fifteen seconds.
    4. Attach the computer's power cord.
    5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    If you still can not see them, connect them back up to the iMac running the older OS, open Disk Utility and look to see how they are partitioned and formatted.

    I have downloaded a French cd on iTunes. It is both speaking and music.  It has downloaded fine in iTunes but it will not transfer to either my iPhone or iPad.  Could someone advise please?

    Check the site of the manufacturer and see if there is an update for your router and install it. If there isn't one try restarting your router by pulling the plug on it and plugging it back in.

  • Does the iPod Classic work with USA SPEC interfaces

    I am very intrested in purchasing a iPod Classic and a USA SPEC PA11-CHR iPod interface to connect the iPod to the factory radio in my truck. The problem is that nobody seems to know if the new iPod Classic will work with this interface, not even USA SPEC. Does anyone have any experiece with this? I have heard that the new iPod Nano's work with this interface, but not like they should. Any info on the Classic and its compatability with this interface would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm currently using an integration system from NEO car audio in my Mazda 3(which I'm sure all our integration kits are some variation of the same exact unit), not a cheep upgrade either. And I'm having the same lockout issues, "connected to accessory". I somehow managed to bypass it once, and get back to the main menu, but have yet to do it since that one accidental time. The system worked PERFECT with my 60G 5th gen. Apple should have made it a little more clear that they were going to attempt to control every aspect of our lives once we purchased the new ipod. Hey look, guess since they started using PC parts they thought it would be ok to become just like Windows "you will do it our way or not at all"
    I will return my 160g classic as well, and go back to my 60g Video. I may consider buying the 160 again later down the road, once Apple has stopped taking what ever drugs they are on that’s impaired their judgment to the point of stupidity. They even disabled the video out, you have to purchase their "NEW" video cable in order to hook the classic up to your tv or av system.
    MORE THAN UPSET!!!
    Apple get a grip! If you start down this road, you will loose the large following that has taken YEARS for you to gather. Are you sure you want to start this now?

  • How does the iPod Classic Respond to Multiple Album Artworks?

    iTunes allows you to put more than one artwork as the file's album art ... does it ever cycle through them, or is it just "there", taking up precious bytes?

    To date, the firmware only ever shows the first image in any given file. You can, however, give different artwork to different tracks and the iPod will display the appropriate image. An example I have is Mike Oldfield's "Light & Shade", the first CD is "Light" while the other is "Shade". I have this arranged as a single 22 track album within iTunes with the "Light" artwork on the first 13 tracks and the "Shade" artwork on the other 9. As far as I can tell the iPod draws on a separate artwork cache created during the sync process for displaying artwork. I assume this would only store the primary image from any given file, however the original data is still embedded in the media file so to that extent the data is still "there". In the scheme of things it's hardly likely to be a problem unless you routinely embed dozens of images into each track. If you drop images onto the album art panel in iTunes they will be appended to any existing images. If you *Get info* for multiple tracks & paste in the artwork box there then all the images are replaced with the single new image.

  • Does the iPod Touch Bluetooth require wifi connection?

    I have an iPod Touch 3rd generation and plan to upgrade to the 4 this winter but if the Bluetooth does require wifi I'll probably choose the iPhone. The reason I ask is because I want to get these Bluetooth earbuds since I'm sick of the wire. But, if the iPod Touch BlueTooth can't work while I'm out then what's the point in staying with just the iPod? I prefer having just the iPod but I am seriously that sick of the wire that I'd get the iPhone.

    BT will work fine without wifi.

  • HT1212 My ipod is disabled and is connected to my computer but will not connect with itunes

    My ipod has been disabled and will not connect to Itunes

    Are you still holding the home button when you plug it in or do you let go?
    You want to make sure that you turn it off, hold the home button and plug it into the computer BUT do not let go of the home button. Keep holding the home button until you get the itunes symbol and the cable on the iPod.

  • Why does the option to watch a movie even appear if it then will not play because not downloaded? Worse, then only 23hrs left to watch!! Paying for what is not delivered!!

    ITUNES:  Why does the option to "watch movie now" appear & when chosen movie will not play because still downloading. WHY SHOULD THE OPTION APPEAR IF MOVIE CAN"T BE PLAYED. Then when movie is viewable, only 23hrs to watch! PAYING FOR MOVIES WITHOUT OPPORTUNITY TO VIEW does not make happy consumer. Emailed Itunes over and over about problem and stilll paying for services unrendered.

    When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised  filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
    The timeout failure could be due to
    Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
    Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
    Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
    Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.
    Have a nice day!

  • IPod Classic 80g..message 'Delayed write failed?? Will not sync to itunes!

    This message appears when I try to connect to my pc...
    'Delayed write failed. Windows is unable to save all the data for the file J:\ipod_control. The data has been lost. This error may be caused by a failiure of your computer hardware or network connection. Please try to save this file elsewhere'
    Ok..
    A: I know the 'J' is the drive it is assigned too...I have been to admin and changed it....No luck
    B: I have found the actual file in the hidden folders but cannot move it or save it elsewhere as it suggests....
    C: I have reset and at one point factory restored through itunes.....
    D: I have even been into the system start up sequence and set it up for ipod and itunes only.....
    Am I being silly or is there a solution???
    Please can somebody shed some light as to what to do...
    Ta muchly

    My husband's 80GB iPod had the same problem a few months ago...turned out it was due to corrupted album artwork. Try unchecking the box "Display artwork on this iPod", close iTunes, reconnect iPod to iTunes and then recheck the box "Display album artwork on this iPod". Once I did that, the iPod loaded perfectly and no more error messages.
    Hope this helps!

  • I have a iPad and a iPod one (the ipad) I was preparing it for ios5 update then it gave me a error and crashed,did all apples bull nothing works now its barely staying charged with the iTunes logo on it not showing up at all on PC.

    NOW THE iPod its a 2nd Gen. I love those because the glass (plastic) doesn't break like the new ones but anyway. I let it die out as I was moving and its been tucked away needing a charge. I go to charge it and nothing a big paper weight. Pressed power and home did the works nothing is working ugghhhh Im tempted to say f@$#%#$ Apple???????????????????/

    Letting the battery get into a totally discharged state was probably not a good idea.  Apple didn't do it, you did.

  • Does the ipod nano charge quickly when connected to a mac?

    hi everyone.
    I recently switched from windows to a macbook. i noticed that my ipod nano(second generation) charges quickly when connected to the mac as compared to when i connected it to my pc? is this possible or is there something wrong with my ipod? it is 11 months since i got my nano. kindly help.
    this is my first post
    Thanks in advance

    I assume you're talking about using the Apple cable with either component or composite cables. On a non-HD TV, the quality is quite good. I'm not sure what you mean about picture size. It doesn't letter box anything, if that's what you mean. Used to do it a lot when I went away for the weekend. It was an easy way to take iTunes rental movies with me and watch them on a big screen. I've never tried with my HD TV because i haven an Apple TV and there's no need.
    Best of luck.
