How to put IPOD Shuffle I into Disk Mode ?

How to put Ipod Shuffle I into diskmode ?

When connected, in iTunes click on shuffle icon in Devices, then click on Settings tab. Scroll down and click the square in front of "Enable disk use", the adjust slider for amount of flash memory to reserve for data. Click Apply, and you're done!
When you use iPod shuffle as a disk, the status light on the front of iPod shuffle blinks orange continuously, and the iPod shuffle disk icon appears on the desktop on the Mac, or as the next available drive letter in Windows Explorer on a Windows PC. Drag files to and from iPod shuffle to copy them.
Ejecting iPod shuffle Important: If the iPod shuffle status light is blinking orange, you must eject iPod shuffle before disconnecting it from your computer. If you don’t eject iPod shuffle before disconnecting it, you could damage files on iPod shuffle.
To eject iPod shuffle:
Click the Eject (C ) button next to iPod shuffle in the iTunes Source list. If you’re using a Mac, you can also eject iPod shuffle by dragging the iPod shuffle icon on the desktop to the Trash.
If you’re using a Windows PC, you can eject iPod shuffle by clicking the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray and selecting your iPod shuffle.

  • Ipod rarely goes into disk mode

    Hi. I have followed the steps to get my ipod into disk mode, because I am getting an ipod picture with a frown. Only rarely does it actually go into disk mode. I have toyed with it being plugged into my computer, into the wall, and not plugged in at all, but i cant get my ipod to get back into disk mode. What would be the easiest way to do this?
    Thanks alot
    Jordan

    I am still at a loss and my ipod still doesnt work. does anyone know how to fix this?!

  • Can't get ipod classic 80GB into disk mode

    I have tried and tried to get this 80GB ipod into disk mode by pushing the select/menu until it restarts and the select/pp buttons. It keeps going back to the red x. please help.

    Is it possible my IPOD is defective?
    Probably not, but it's more than likely that the docking station either isn't compatible with the Classic or the cables supplied with it aren't.
    Does it specifically say the Dynex is Classic compatible?

  • What causes ipod to go into disk mode

    I have an older ipod nano and out of the blue for no reason the other day when i picked it up it said something about how i needed to use itunes to restore. When i plug the ipod into itunes in says something about corrupted files and the ipod needs to be restored to factory settings. Now, i have read a lot about ways to try to salvage this but resetting etc. and when i do this i get a check mark that says "okay to disconnect" and above it it says "disk mode" But what causes this in the first place? I never plugged it into a computer and ejected it improperly. One day it works fine and the next it doesnt and im going to have to lose all my music because of it! So again, what exactly causes this to happen? Is it something i may have done or just a flaw in the device?
    Thanks,
    Bryan

    Yeah, I've had this happen to me too. Unfortuantely its just one f the many joys of owning an ipod/apple product. I'm not exatcly sure WHAT causes this to happen, but if you hold down the center and menu button down at the same time, the disk mode screen should turn off; and, depending if your ipod is charge or not, pressing the play/pause button should turn on your ipod on normaly.                  Hope this helped for being so late.

  • Is it Dead?  ipod mini goes into disk mode, but will not reset  or restore

    and is not recognized by the computer (Vista) or by iTunes. I have also tried to connect it to different usb ports and to different computers (3). Same result with all of them.
    Before the problems, I had attempted to install compact flash (adapter with 8gb micro sd memory card).
    Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    Again, this is a problem with the Logic Board. When something metallic or conductive (screwdriver/watch/finger) shorts two components on the board. I can sort this out for you, if you don't feel confident doing the repair yourself.
    Thanks,

  • Ipod cannot go into recovery mode and I have forgotten passcode. It was halfway through an update and will also not appear as a device in itunes any more

    My sister has forgotten her IPod touch passcode and in my efforts to restore it, I accidentally updated it, leaving it unable to go into recovery mode. It no longer comes onto my devices list on iTunes but asks if I want the computer to read the device, but as I can not unlock it, either option has resulted in nothing. Can anyone help me restore the device? Or at least reset it, as it will not go into recovery mode.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    iPod nano (7th generation)
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it has a charge.

    iPod devices with a Click Wheel
    If necessary, verify that your iPod has a Click Wheel.
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it is charged.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off (set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons for at least six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    When the Apple logo appears, release the Menu and Select buttons and immediately press and hold the Select and the Play/Pause buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
    Connect the iPod to your computer; the screen on the iPod will should say "Do not disconnect".
    If you are having difficulty putting your iPod into Disk Mode, set it on a flat surface. Make sure that the finger pressing the Select button is not touching the Click Wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Play/Pause button toward the outside of the Click Wheel and not near the center. If you are still unable to put your iPod into Disk Mode, use one finger from one hand to press the Select button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Play/Pause button.
    Older iPod models without a Click Wheel
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it has a charge.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off (set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Play/Pause and Menu buttons until the Apple/iPod logo appears, then release them. This resets iPod. When you reset iPod, all your music and data files are saved, but some customized settings may be lost.
    When the Apple logo appears, immediately press and hold the Previous and Next buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
    Connect the iPod to your computer; the screen on the iPod should say "Do not disconnect".

  • How to put ipod 3rd generation on the disk mode manually?

    how to put ipod 3rd generation on the disk mode manually?

    I am having this problem as well. I've tried dozens of times at this point. I can produce the apple icon but when I release and press play+select it just reverts back to the red x. The red x is the whole reason I'm trying to get this into disk mode. I need to reset it but I can't until it is in disk mode. I've tried the flat surface, one finger etc etc but disk mode still eludes me. Any other thoughts?
