I am having problems with my iPod Classic crashing after a partial sync with my library.  It also disconnects on it's own causing an error.

I have an iPod 120gb Classic That I bought to use with an Apple Universal Dock connected to my home stereo.  Since day one when I put the iPod in the dock it flashes rapidly between "connected, eject before disconnecting" and "disconnected, error".  Eventually it usually settles down and is functional.  Sometimes this flashing screen scenerio goes on for several minutes. 
This morning I got tired of putting up with this problem and tried to restore and update the i{Pod hoping that it would fix the problem.  So, I did the restore but when I tried to reload my music it stopped part way through the sync.  Additionally, it seems to disconnect on it's own during sync and updates. 
Any ideas?  Thanks!

I had the same issues with my iPod touch & iPhone. It's a known issue with the touch & Linksys G routers. Go into settings on the touch & do the following.
1. Settings - wifi - linksys
2. Erase your DNS settings & input same numbers as in router
Settings.
3. Http proxy should be
in off position.
4. Close out & open safari you should now have a wireless
connection.

  • My ipod classic crashes after about 2-3 days of being attached to my Kenwood KDC-248U receiver in Pickup.  There are 2700  songs but only get through the first 200   Apple has replaced the Ipod 3x and Kenwood says it is not a problem with the receiver.

    My ipod classic crashes after about 2-3 days of being attached to my Kenwood KDC-248C receiver in my Pickup.  There are about 2700+ songs on the Ipod, but only get through the first 200 to 300 songs.  The screen fades, but there is still power and a charge.  Does anyone have a clue because I don't.?

    There seem to be compatibilty isuue with KDC receiver and Ipod Classic firmware 1.1.2.

    i have ipod classic 5gen it will not sync with windows the error message says ipod can not sync as required file missing   wht to do???

    Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
    I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
    Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.

  • My iPod classic 7th Gen  will not sync with my new computer. itunes is installed and updated.

    fellow iPod classic owners,
                                           the problem is a failure to sync with the new computer. the conditions are as follows: the new computer is a pc. it has the latest iTunes software installed. the iPod is installed properly. i'm fully recognized by my iTunes account. there is nothing lacking other than my iPod's refusal to sync with my new computer. what have i left undone? i could be suffering from a duh, but i'm not the only one. nothing in the apple world is as difficult as this one is, at least on the surface. if it were that simple an issue, no one would be having any problems with it. any more information needed can be provided by request. by the way, the computer being used has been authorized. that is a non-issue.
                                                                                                                 your help is appreciated,
                                                                                                                     hardphil.

    I believe the IPOD (Classic) uses USB 2.0,  and my new laptop uses USB 3.0.  I think they are not compatable because of this.  If you find a solution to this please let me know.
    Thanks,

  • IPod Classic 5th generation will not sync with new MacBook

    I have had a 5th generation iPod classic that I have been super happy with.  I have used it with several PC laptops.  Because I have gone through so many PC's, I decdied this year to get a new MacBook Pro.  Since my old PC was dying it took forever to get all my music and videos transferred to my new MacBook. Anyhow, I have had no luck syncing my iPod with my new MacBook.  I have read several other posts (but mostly older like 2007-2010) that others have had similar problems.  Here is a quick list of what I have done/what has happened:
    Initially, I would get one of two messages:
    'The ipod '(My Name) ipod' cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-124)'
    - 'The ipod '(My Name) ipod' cannot be synced. The required folder cannot be found.'
    Two times it told me I needed to use a USB 2.0 port (but I have a new MacBook and was using the newer 3.0 port).  I haven't seen that message since.
    It actually "transferred" over 4500 of my 7000 items (I have a ton of music that I use for my job) and then just stopped. When it was disconnected only about 200 songs were actually on my iPod.
    I've restored it several times.
    Seems to "freeze" on random songs or videos and will not continue to sync, even theough the iPod says it's syncing.  Then iTunes freezes.  I have to "force quit." Sometimes (but not all the time) if I try to re-open iTunes, I get a message that says iTunes is locked.
    I thought maybe my cable was bad (it was the original that came with the iPod).  I actually spent $20 and got a new one.  No luck. 
    With the new cord iTunes now gets frozen on the 3rd or 4th song it is trying to transfer. Once I disconnect the iPod (I have to disconnect with ejecting because iTunes is frozen and it also freezes up Finder to eject) my iPod makes an awful click sound and I have to start it by toggling and then holding the play/pause button.
    I have tried enabling disk, manually controlling music, etc. but nothing helps.
    I am sick about it because I rely on my iPod a lot for my job-- and I can't afford a new one since I just bought a MacBook.  I think it has something to do with the fact that I got this new MacBook.  My old PC was getting so sensitive that I didn't download the latest version of iTunes (but I still had the second latest version).
    Any help is appreciated.

  • TS4062 ipod classic issues when trying to sync with itunes

    i have an ipod classic which has always worked great when getting music from itunes, but i bought a new computer and now i can't get it to sync. i also have an ipod touch which works fine. i need help figuring out how to sync with my new computer and the classis. any suggestions?

    Update:
    Any new news on this issue from anyone else?
    I left my iPod plugged into my PowerBook over night and when I woke it was functional. However, downloads from iTunes to the iPod take almost 3x's longer than they used to and there seems to be more errors than I've ever experienced (about 1 out of every 10 interfaces). Sometimes the error is that it can't write to the drive (iPod) and sometimes the error is that it can't mount the iPod. Also when the iPod is plugged in and displayed in iTunes, the "used" and "free" info is incorrect. I completely emptied my iPod and it says that I'm using -2.80 GB (impossible unless I've created a blackhole) and it says that I have 10.49 GB (capacity, under Get Info, is listed at 9.28 - which is were it's always been - it's a gen2 10GB iPod).
    Has anyone tried to format there iPod? Is this possible without harming the drive?
    Well, to sum it up my iPod is working but is having errors and bugs all over the place. If anyone has any new news I'd love to hear it.
    SPECS: iPod 10GB gen2, running 1.5(?), iTunes 6.0.4, PowerBook G4 800, OS 10.4.5

  • Ipod Classic 7th generation will not sync with all movies in Itunes

    I just bought an Ipod classic today, due to my iphone 5 not able to connect to my car entertainment system and car stereo.  Needing a 30 pin to connect to it.  So I bought it, connected it to my mac computer, and not all the movie files will sync to it.  I get this message:
    For some reason, some of my movies will transfer to the ipod classic, and some will not.  They are all m4v files.  Does anyone have a suggestion?

    The files that won't copy probably have too high a data rate. From http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/specs.html

  • My iPod Classic 2nd Generation doesn't sync with iTunes

    Hi, I bought a powermac G5 to sync my ipod classic 2nd generation, 20gb (from 2002) over firewire, however when I plug the ipod in, it charges but iTunes does not pick it up. The iPod charges, and works fine. When I got onto 'about this mac' and then firewire devices it says it is unable to list firewire devices (in red writing -error?). Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks

  • Safari keeps crashing after 1st bookmarks sync with Chrome

    Hi,
    today I updated the iCloud software on my PC to version 3.0 and afterwards setup the new bookmark syncing feature with Chrome. After the first sync both my iOS devices (iPad 3 and iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0) don't run Safari anymore. It takes about 5 seconds after you open the app until it crashes. I can neither enter the Safari preference pane nor disable Safari syncing in the iCloud pref pane...
    What should I do? Is there a way to reset iClouds bookmarks?? It's really annoying as I can't use Safari on my iOS devices anymore right now -.-

    Exactly same Problem
    I have same problem guys.
    Since yesterday afternoon, Every time i opened safari on my iPhone and pressed either iCloud tab button on the bottom right or try type on the address bar, Safari crashed. After a long read on internet I went to the iCloud settings and turned off the switch for safari. Once i opened safari it worked fine.
    I called Apple support and discussed this issue and we tried many things like reset the phone and set it up as a new device, signing on an other iPhone with my iCloud details to see if it was the device, but in the end we found that the problem was with iCloud account and not the device related because safari started crashing on that device too. It seems like that safari data on my iCloud got corrupted. I read some forums last years where a few users experience a similar issue.
    Now can somebody suggest me any workaround to fix this. Since i cannot open safari on my iPhone, i went on my macbook and pressed the iCloud tab button to see which iCloud tabs were opened on my iPhone. it showed two tabs one with blank line but when i press on the line, it takes me to macupdate website.
    Could these two tabs be the the culprit that they are still showing on my iPhone? Can I ask apple to reset my iCloud profile? If i wait 7 days for these two tabs to clear (if they clear), will my safari start working again on iPhone? Safari is working fine on macbook though.
    Have you managed to sort out your problem if so, how?
    Thanks

  • I'm having problems using my iPod Touch 4g after updating it to iOS 6 , what to do ?

    well firstly , i was downloading ios 6 on my computer it was showing 850 mb , then my copmuter's battery got empty , so i downloaded straight from my ipod touch , there it was showing only 580 mb , so does downloading it from the idevice make it small or is there a problem ?
    anyways , after i updated my itouch (4g) to ios 6 , i cant see the app siri ( may be there is no A5 chip ) , the app ' passbook is empty , there is a button to go to the app store , when i click it the app store opens but is all blank .
    the app ' maps ' is not there and also the app ' accessibility ' is also not there . What to do ?
    Does downloading the iOS 6 straight from the itouch (4g) miss out on all these things ?

    AFAIK, downloading directly to the device is typically smaller as it only gets the stuff it needs for your specific device as oposed to the  full download  when downloading from iTunes.
    Correct, no Siri for iTouch 4th gen.
    The Maps app is there, but I moved it around, so I'm not sure where it is on your device, but its in there.
    Safari is updated in iOS 6, your other apps should update in the App Store when their developers release updates, I've launched only a few apps so far, no problems with compatibility!

  • My ipod classic 80 gb will not sync contacts form Outlook in windows 7.  I have tried many suggestions but none work.

    My ipod classic 80 gb will not sync with contacts in outlook in windows 7. It never has synced all contacts but for a while it would sync "All Contacts" if I created a distribution group in Contacts for that purpose.  Now it will not even do that. What can i do ?

    Holding down the center/select button and the menu button will reboot your ipod. See if that helps. Also, I'd recommend something else- I had nothing but trouble with my ipod classic until I spent $20 to get Mac OS Mountain Lion. It did what you said and sometimes wouldnt play, or wouldnt power on...
    Try rebooting your ipod and let me know what happens and maybe in the future obtain Mountain Lion to aide your ipod in functionality.
    Good luck!
