Frozen iPod classic with lock and battery images on the screen

When I unlocked my iPod classic while listening to music, everything stopped, and i got an image on the screen of the time when this happened (6:30), a lock image below it on the left, and a black horizontal battery on the right. The iPod won't work now, whether locked/unlocked or whether connected/unconnected to my PC/iTunes. What, if anything is the fix?

Have you tried just a hard reset yet? To do this, first make sure the hold switch is toggled to the off position, then press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • IPod classic is locked and wants a combination. Never set one. How do I unlock?

    iPod classic is locked and wants a combination. Never set one. How do I unlock?

    Is your iPad new in the sense of being brand new or is it the latest generation?
    If you do not have very much on it you could connect it to iTunes on your computer (if you use one) and on the screen that pops up starting with the Summary tab click on the Restore button further down. Be sure to set it up as a new device? You will lose any saved data but at least it will unlock your device. Alternatively, you could could do it through Settings on your ipad. Either way, you my have to redownload your purchased apps again.

    My Ipod classic is corrupted and I only get the red X on the screen...Cannot move to any other screens. Any ideas on fixing without paying Applw?

    Unfortunately there isn't. A Red X is usually an indicator that the HDD has failed, if you are unable to restore the device using iTunes and also not able to reformat using windows prior to restoring then a hardware repair is needed. If your iPod is out of warranty then the pricing you pay is to have the iPod replaced not repaired. You're looking at 129.00 - 179.00 plus shipping depending on the gen.

  • My ipod is on lock and i cant remember the combination

    i acidentally put my ipod on lock and i cant remember the combination. what do i do?

    Damon,
    From your link;
    "Unlocking iPod
    You can unlock iPod in one of two ways:
    1. Enter the combination on iPod using the same controls you used to set the combination. If you do not enter the correct combination, the digits onscreen flash red. When you enter the combination correctly, iPod will unlock and return you to the last viewed screen.
    2. Connect iPod to the primary computer you use it with (the first one iPod synced with), and open iTunes. When you disconnect iPod from the computer, it will no longer be locked."

  • Problem with syncing ipod classic with iTunes and multiple accounts

    Hi I have a 80gig ipod classic that I have just been using as is without putting any new music on it. I haven't had it hooked up to a computer or itunes in a couple years I've just been listening to the same music and using an iphone instead. To compound things I now have a couple (that I know about) apple id's that I am using. And a old HP computer which I am unsure if I can get running or salvage any of the music of it to transfer to my new Macbook Pro. I have logged onto apple and changed the password/id of the old apple id to authorize my new mac. I had some files transferred from the ipod to my new itunes but am still missing some 1100 songs. When I have tried to sync it I get an apple id prompt that I have never used before. I had my old apple id come up and with the new password got it to authorize on my Mac. Any help or direction on this will help me to bumble my way through until I can get to an apple store and try to get some help there. Thanks in advance!!!!!

    Hey catwoman001,
    Thanks for the question, and great troubleshooting so far! iPod software version 2.0.5 is available for the iPod classic 160GB (Late 2009). If this is your model, you may want to update the iPod. If you are having issues with your iPod, the following troubleshooting assistant may help:

    My iPhone 5 is frozen. Can't get off current screen.

    Force the phone to restart by holding the home and sleep/wake buttons until the screen goes blank. Release the buttons.
    If the Apple logo doesn't come on within a few seconds, press and hold the power button to boot the phone back up.

    WHow long have you left it to charge?  Have you tried resetting it after a short period of time to see if that can help jumpstart the charging process? To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • Hello. I have an ipod classic generation 4 and I want to add some more music to it however my computer and itunes do not recognice it when I try to connect it. Is it incompatible with windows 7 or itunes?

    Hello. I have an ipod classic generation 4 and I want to add some more music to it however my computer and itunes do not recognise the device when I try to connect it. Is it incompatible with windows 7 or current version of itunes?

    It should still be compatible.  Have you tried plugging it into a different USB port using a different cable to see if that helps?  Perhaps, try it another computer as well to see if it's recognized there.
    Otherwise, start by checking to see if it's even recognized in Device Manager.  See this article for details.

  • I have an old iPod Classic with 80 GB (I think) of space. I saved all my songs in an external hard drive, but the iTunes library resided in an old computer (no longer working). Can I get the libray from my iPod and use it in my new computer (Windows)?

  • HT1386 I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".

    I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".  Could you please help?

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

    Unfortunately, your iPad went into recovery mode and must be restored now. There is no getting around this. You need to use iTunes to do this as well. Read this for more instructions.
