How to restore stereo channel on ipod classic?

how do I restore stereo channel on ipod classic?

The iPod is only playing out of one channel (hence one earbud)? I assume you have tried another set of headphones to make sure that your current set is not damaged or faulty?
You can also work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting to rule out the possibility of a software error/glitch.

It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's headphone jack, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.

Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity. A third party service will actually replace the damaged part for a little less. Google "iPod headphone jack repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

How do you download music from Ipod Classic to computer?

How do you download music from ipod classic to computer

If your music collection was purchased from iTunes, you are in a good shape since that music is forever yours under your iTunes account. Therefore, after installing iTunes on your new computer, sign into your account and see all your music under "Purchsed". Then simply download it to be phisically present onto your computer (for free since you've already paid for it).
On the other hand if you happens to not be a sucker to waist money on iTunes and your collection was ripped from the internet (via torrents and such), you need some third party software to copy iPod music, here is a guide about how to transfer music from iPod classic to computer. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

How drop-resistant/durable is the iPod Classic?

How durable is the 7th gen Ipod Classic? I recently dropped my Ipod 160 gb classic twice on the same day! Once at Best Buy, it fell out of my pocket while playing Xbox Kinect like two feet onto the carpet, and then agian while getting out of my truck not reliseing my ipod was on my lap, and it fell face planting 5 feet onto the driveway. I can't tell if there is any problems with it, but it still plays. I was woundering how drop-resistant/durable the Ipod classic, and would it effect the sound quality.

I'v used my iPod (5G... just upgraded to classic) for the past 4-5 yrs working out 5 to 6 times a week. I invested in an armband (with one of those rubber iPod cases) and I have never had to replace it. I have never had issues with the iPod malfunctioning while running or lifting weights. My battery finally died and rather than replacing it I decided to just invest in the latest model. I like the variety.

How do I restore playlist folders from iPod classic to iTunes? The library is intact, but the playlists are not and I don't want to rebuild them from scratch!

After reformatting my HD and reimporting all songs back into iTunes succesfully, the playlist folders are gone and I don't want to rebuild them from scratch. How do I restore playlists from iPod classic to iTunes 11.1.3 without resorting to 3rd party options?

I actually tried that in "my computer" by renaming the drive and then got this:
g-raid (F:) (H:)
then after reading your reply realized I should try renaming it in "disk management" and hey! it worked.
Thanks a lot for the advice.
Now I don't understand why my back-up drive isn't automatically adding the files when I import into the Ex-HD but I'll figuree it out.

How to fix "use itunes to restore" problem on my iPod Classic 160G?

When I try to connect my iPod to iTunes on my PC, there was an alert to restore. I follow the direction. Stage 1 of the restore process was successful. But the Stage 2 of the restore process, when the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar in off backlight work so long time. Then I shutdown my PC. After that my iPod does not work. When I re-connect to PC there are appear "use itunes to restore" and "do not disconnect" alternately.How to fix the problem?
<Edited By Host>

for some reason when itunes first installs a new version, it opens up to the iTunes Store. Since you don't have net connection, its going to error out.
But the fact that you can't see any of the other items, I would recommend redownloading iTunes (and Quicktime to be sure) and reinstalling it and see if that helps.
Just for the record, can you click on the Library icon?

How do I take songs off Ipod Classic if they are no longer in ITunes?

I've nearly filled my Ipod Classic with music. Since my computer only has so much storage and ITunes couldn't possibly store all the songs, I kept deleting them, then would add new ones, move them manually to the Ipod, and then delete them. I continued this cycle to get as much music as I wanted on the Ipod. But now I'd like to add some new music and I'm willing to sacrifice some of the music that's on the Ipod. So how do I remove songs from the Ipod if they are no longer in ITunes?

It sounds like your iPod is set to use the Manually manage music and videos setting, which is on the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes. When you use the manual method, the iTunes library on the computer is not linked in any way to the library on the iPod.
So how do I remove songs from the Ipod if they are no longer in ITunes?
So, that does not even matter. iTunes is not keeping the two libraries "in sync" in any way. First, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. The iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES, when connected.
To remove songs from the iPod manually, click the small triangle to the left of the iPod's name (in the sidebar) to drop down its content list, indented below the iPod. Click on Music there. The list of songs on the iPod is shown to the right. Select the song you want to remove and press Delete on the keyboard. You can do this with more than one song selected.
NOTE: It is a bad and risky idea to keep the only copy of song files on an iPod, which can become lost, broken, or in need of a Restore. You will eventually lose your music. You should keep all of your songs in your iTunes library on your computer (as the "master copy"). If the internal drive does not have the space, you should get an external drive that is large enough to hold all of your songs (with room to grow). You can then set up iTunes to store its iTunes Media folder on the external drive.

How to delete corrupted files on ipod classic

Somehow the "index" of files on my Ipod Classic HD got corrupted so none of my music, video, etc files showed up on the Ipod. The library, and all the files, would display in Itunes so I followed the instructions and copied them over to an external HD. Then, when I synced the Ipod, about 1/3 of my available HD on the Ipod shows up as yellow in the space available indicator. Fortunately I had enough capacity to re-sync....just with very little free space on the HD afterward
My question is:
Should I reset the Ipod and then copy the library media folder from the external HD back to my PC?....and then sync? Will that get rid of the corrupted files so I regain the capacity on the Ipod HD?
Thanks for any help

Hi arakis,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
In this situation I would restore your iPod back to factory settings and then sync the music back onto it. It shouldn’t matter if the music is located on the computer hard drive or an external hard drive, as long as the iTunes Media Folder is pointed to the correct location to access the music from iTunes. The first article below explains the process of restoring your iPod back to factory settings and the second article shows the location (and how to change the location) of the iTunes Media Folder.

How to create subdirectories in playlist, ipod classic

I am not familiar how to create subdirectories in Playlists in iPod Classic. Of course I have to user iTues software but I don't know how to create. Please guide me if anybody knows how to create subdirectories.
I want like this (like windows how subdirectories are look)
Classical
Dindufa
Zazimba
Thank you,
grb

To expand on that further, putting playlists within folders and/or folders within folders creates multiple levels of playlist organization. However, this only works in auto-sync mode, so if you manually manage your Classic the folder structure will not transfer over.

How to set release date in ipod classic

I use my iPod Classic just for video documentaries (mostly archaeology) downloaded from my DVDs. How can I either get rid of the phrase "unknown release date" or fill out that release date.

Got MetaX, which works! Use the original m4v-file from the computer. When entering date in MetaX, do it like 2013-04-28. Then enter the file in iTunes. Then when transferring from iTunes to the iPod, it changes to April 28, 2013. Perfect. Great product for only $9.95.

How do i put photos on ipod classic

want to know how i can put photos from my computer to my ipod classic.
i have tried just dragging them into the ipod folder but that didnt work.
so i tried making a new folder and put my photos in there but then when i went to put them on my ipod classic it told me the photos werent there.
please HELP.
and there was no manual or cd that came with it, it came with a manual on how to put songs on but nothing else.

Connect your iPod to your iTunes Library and look on the iPod/Photos pane:
and then...
Choose a folder on your computer from the drop-down menu I've ringed. Yoiu can only choose one folder, but all the photos and sub-folders in it will then be added to your iPod (you may need to press the Sync button).

How to transfer iPhoto events from iPod Classic to Mac

I have an old iPod Classic 80GB and used to sync all my iPhoto events with it (full resolution pictures and disk use enabled).
Now my MacBook White HD crashed, and I would like to transfer all the events to a MacBook Air running Mountain Lion (v10.8.2). I could easily copy and paste the "Full Resolution" folder, which has all the pictures. However, I could not manage a way of transfering the photos metadata, i.e., I was unable to transfer the events' names along with the photos or keep them sepparated in events.
I have read this article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1930, according to which the iPhoto should identify my iPod and would be able to import the pictures. But the iPhoto (v9.4.2) can't "see" the iPod (perhaps because it's a much newer iPhoto version compared to the one running in my old Tiger MacBook White). And if it could, I'm afraid it wouldn't identify the events in which every group of pictures is split.
How can I import the photos sepparated in iPhoto events from my iPod Classic to the Mac? Any ideas?

Yes, iPhoto is the best choice for you.

How to store content on the iPod classic

Dear all,
I've got a small problem.
Oh, at first I wish you all Merry Christmas.
Now, back to the issue :-)
Not all my films can be played on my iPod classic. Only those that I bought in iTunes Store. All the other, that I usually convert to format called "Apple Universal" can be played on Apple TB, iMac, iPad, but not on my iPod classic. Only if I convert movies to the other format. Smaller, with les pixels. But when I bought something via the shop, the same film can be played everywhere. And I do not want to convert the films double. Once for iPod and second for anything else. Plllls, is there any way how to do it?
And if no, is there a way how to even store movies on the iPod, withot playing in on it. I would like to use it ony when I go for holiday as a media storage. In a hotel room connect it via AV cable to the TV and only on TV play it.
Kind Regards for any advice in this matter.
Martin

You remove it from the list of items in iTunes set to sync with the iPod, or if syncing it manually, select the iPod in the iTunes source list, find that music, and press Delete.
