Make sure the volume on the iPod is turned up fully, since this will affect what you hear through the stereo.
Make sure Volume Limit is set to full. (From Main Menu, Settings/Volume Limit)
If you purchased your iPod inside the EU (European Union), then the maximum volume from the headphone jack is lower than elsewhere in the world. If this is the case, buy yourself a 30-pin Dock Connector to 3.5mm jack lead, such as the one linked here...
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Decrescent-Connector-Stereo-Auxiliary-iPhone/dp/B007NIE5 EE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1386012456&sr=8-1&keywords=30+pin+to+3.5mm
That connector will take a higher volume out (than the European Union's output) and that will be louder (and hopefully loud enough) through your stereo.

  • Brand new iPod classic 160 gb won't show up in iTunes devices

    Brand new iPod classic 160 gb won't show up in iTunes devices. The iPod is fully charged, iTunes reckonises my iPod touch, iPad, iPhone 3G and iPhone 4, but not the iPod classic, although it says the iPod is connected it doesn't register in iTunes.

    I purchased a new iPod Classic 160 GB in August 2013 and it (the iPod Classic device) would not show in iTunes though it did show in the Apple Finder. I tried EVERYTHING numerous times including resetting the iPod, updating iTunes and trying everything in the book and in on-line tips. Nothing worked and I was about to give up when I tried using the Apple iPod Classic cable that actually came in the iPod Classic box. It worked!!! Conclusion? Dont just use any old Apple cable eg. from a iPhone or whatever; TRY the USB cable that came with your iPod Classic!!! I have 2009 iMac with the latest Mac OS BTW.

  • My new ipod classic 160 gb powered off and won't turn back on. if i plug in to computer, itunes will not open. if i start itunes first then plug in ipod, itunes freezes up. Looking for help. thanks

    my new ipod classic 160 gb powered off and won't turn back on. if i plug in to computer, itunes will not open. if i start itunes first then plug in ipod, itunes freezes up. Looking for help. thanks. Was not connected to the computer when ipod died.

    I have not heard of a good reason for this to happen or how to fix. 3 days later my screen lights up and says to connect to charger.... so its back "for now". Best music player on the market when it works.

  • New iPod Classic 160 GB not read by MacBook

    My new iPod Classic 160 GB is not read by my MacBook.  It doesn't show up in Finder or in iTunes.  What can I do so my computer recognizes it?

    Swap to another USB 2.0 port and dont use any USB HUB. (only one of the Macbook USB port can be use for iPod Classic)
    If that doesn't work, use another  USB cable.
    When you connect to the Macbook USB port, the iPod screen should show this symbol.
    Battery charging (lightning bolt
    or
    If you get just the menu screen, it means there is no signal or power coming across the cable from the Macbook to the iPod.

  • Will charger that comes with iPhone 3GS charge my new iPod classic 160?

    I have an iPhone 3GS; which comes with a charger. I recently purchased a new iPod classic 160; which doesn't come with a charger.
    Will the iPhone charger charge my iPod without damaging it?
    It appears to work (shows it's charging), but I want to make sure they're compatible.
    Thanks.

    Yes, I have the same question- the old classic came with the charger (the rectangular white one). We travel alot and don't take our laptops with us so we need to charge ipods with chargers. So we can still use the one that works with our old classic or the new one, right?

  • I was just listening to my iPod nano and it stopped working. I plugged it into the computer to sync it and it won't sync. The little light don't come on on my nano. I've turned it off and on, pushed the play/pause and nothing. Can anyone help me out here?

    How long have you left the iPod to charge? It can take up to 30 minutes before it shows any signs of life. Did you use the instructions in this article to properly reset the Shuffle?

  • HT4623 after updating my iphone 3gs from os 4 to os 5.1.1, it left with activating the phone but i've been trying since and is still not activating, the notification given is ''activition server temporarly unavilable". can somebody help me out?

    First use JPanel not Panel.
    Panel panels[]=new Panel[4];becomes
    JPanel panels[]=new JPanel[4];Then refactor your code so that you use arrays correctly:
    panels=new Panel();
    panels.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));becomes
    panels=new JPanel();
    panels[i].setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
    I did the above changes to your code and it worked fine.

  • Somebody help me out here!!!!!!! I cant figure out how to play games on mac

    evertime i put a pc game in it asks me to look for a file to open it and its onlys the system profiler and it dont work how the **** do you play games on the mac book pRO!!somebody help me out it!!!!

    The issue is that you are attempting to run software written for one operating system (Microsoft Windows) on another (Mac OS X). That doesn't work... However, that doesn't mean you're out of luck:
    1. Many popular PC games also happen to be available native for the Mac. Check if the particular games you want to play have a native Mac version. If they do, using that is best since it's easier to install and use and will perform best.
    2. Failing that, you can actually run Windows on the Mac in order to run the game. There are two supported methods to do this: dual-booting (selecting which environment to use when you start the computer), or virtualization (running Windows as an OS X application).
    For games, particularly ones heavily reliant on 3D graphics, dual-boot is currently the best option. This is accomplished using an application called "Boot Camp" (search the Apple site) to setup disk space for the two operating systems and installing a menu that appears when you boot where you can select which operating system to run. Any Windows game will run in this way (assuming you otherwise meet the hardware requirements of the game).
    The alternative is virtualization, and there are two packages for that: Parallels and VMWare Fusion (in beta testing). Both will eventually support hardware accelerated 3D, but its not really functional in either yet. However, these applications run Windows as an application under Mac OS X, meaning that you can be running the Windows and Mac OS X applications at the same time (as opposed to Boot Camp, where you have to select at boot time which to run).
    Note that all of the approaches require you to have a copy of Windows to install (preferably a legally licensed one). Most people don't have a copy to use since they receive a hardware-locked OEM version with their computer that isn't transferable.
    The advice above is applicable to Linux as well.

  • Itunes 64 bit wont install on my Dell XPS due to Windows Installer problems. Can somebody help me out with this?

    I have Windows 7 home premium, running on a Dell XPS 15, with 64 bit OS, and when i went to install itunes for my new phone, it would almost install, but then say that it couldn't install due to issues with windows Installer. has anybody had this happen to them? can anybody help me out with this?

    Many thanks.
    "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor".
    Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
    Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
    If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

  • Toshiba Thrive Tablet Broken Headphone Jack Fix For Audio Line Out

    BROKEN HEADPHONE JACK SIMPLE FIX FOR TOSHIBA THRIVE TABLET:
    I love my Toshiba Thrive tablet. I take it with me everywhere I go, nearly every day. I also enjoyed connecting the headphone output jack on the side to an external set of speakers. I would enjoy stereo internet, video watching and so on. I recently broke (cracked) the headphone jack on accident. For months, I heard only through the small, factory installed speakers which, is not quite what I'd call 'ideal stereo.' Has anyone else done this? Despite trying to find repair shops locally, no one will touch a tablet it seems for repair or replacement parts. It's not your usual headphone jack. But - I can tell you how to get your sound back!
    THE QUICK FIX
    While browsing the internet, I found a device that by-passes the headphone jack and instead uses the internal workings of the Thrive tablet's main connection port. This port is located at the base of the unit. It will be covered by a protective, plastic tab that is removeable. Simply pry a little. This long narrow port was designed to allow you to set the entire Thrive tablet into a docking station designed for it. In this docking station are various connection pins that allow the audio to be sent out of the tablet and into the docking station. At the rear of the docking station you'll find a host of connection types:  1) audio out jack/headphone 2) USB 3) HDMI 4) 110v power supply. Simply plug your speakers or headphone cable into the new docking station and you're done! Your audio will work again. I purchased my docking station for $6.00 on Ebay.  Oddly, the unit doesn't charge very well if at all while in the docking station but I've read you can simply remove the cover from your Thrive, remove the battery physically for a few minutes, return it to it's rightful place then close the cover and this fixes the problem. It's a strange little glitche. I have yet to try this yet. I did find that if I plug the cord directly into the Thrive right side as designed, it will recharge the battery as usual. I ordered a few of these docking stations which allow me to simply set the pad down depending on where I am and it will continue to charge. The docks do not come with power outlet so you'll need to consider buying additional but it works wonderfully. There are now even wireless docking stations too!
