I POD CLASSIC 160 GB

My i pod classic 160 GB will turn itself off mid-song ???? Help

Are you locking your iPod when playing (moving the slider on the top of the device to the right). If you do not lock the iPod, it is possible that you are simply pressing buttons accidentally (if you are carrying the iPod in your pocket, for instance) causing the iPod to stop playing.
If you are definitely locking the iPod, you should first try resetting the iPod (the equivalent of rebooting). Hold down the Menu and center buttons together for about 10 seconds. You will see the Apple logo appear for a little while, then the main menu will appear. This will not wipe your iPod.
If the iPod is still exhibiting this behavior, then restoring would be your next step.

Hello, I would like to buy an I Pod Classic 160 GB and have heard that the volume limit in Europe has been reduced from the factory. Are the devices in the U.S.A also affected?

No, they are not. But getting round this is not that simple.
Until recently, the European Volume Limit that you're referring to affected iPods sold within the EU (European Union countries), so one purchased in the US would not be affected by this. Nor, in theory, would an iPod purchased in Norway or Russia, since neither of them are in the EU.
However, iPod Classics now sold within the UK (where I live) now appear to have an option to disable the EU Volume Limit. I would assume therefore, that this option is available on an iPod Classic bought anywhere within the EU. The firmware on an iPod Classic that can turn off the EU volume Limit is 2.0.5.
iPod Classics running earlier versions of the firmware (including 2.0.4) cannot be upgraded. I have personally seen one with 2.0.5 Mac on it in an Apple Store and the EU limit could be turned off. Check the picture from Badgorr in this thread New Option to turn off EU Volume Cap? (It's towards the bottom of the page.) However, non-Apple stores may still have older stock, so be aware of this when you go shopping.
Experience tells me that buying an iPod from outside the European Union area is not that simple and you are unlikely to manage it. Apple will not ship goods to another country. So either you travel to the US to buy one from a shop (that's a bit extravagant) or you persuade someone else to buy one and send it to you. However, not only will you have the cost of shipping, but in either case, your country's tax department will almost certainly add tax to it when it comes into the country. The service delivering it will apply the tax and charge you for doing so as well or you get charged by the customs department at the airport.

Pod classic 160 appears on desktop but not in iTunes

My new iPod Classic 160 appears on my desktop but not in iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes installed (and reinstalled (twice)). When I first launch iTunes I get the warning that my iPod is using (old) usb 1 port to connect to my G4 (my beloved G4). This is correct, it is, I can live with slow sync. Anyway, I want to restore my iPod but iTunes freezes (crashes) after giving me his error message:
'The iPod "Mark Carter's iPod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-1302).'
Then I have to force quit iTunes,etc.
Also, I was listening t music on iPod but then it just seemed to disappear? Can still see albums/songs/artwork etc. but won't play track just skips through them.

Book on CD to I-Pod , what length of time will the I-Pod classic 160 gig hold aprox ?

so we're thinking about loosing the required storage space for book on CD purchases and converting them to I-pad . I have no idea what 160 GB of space equates to hours of storage … most titles are +/- 6 hrs listening time some are 14 hrs or more … so what is aprox. time available in 160 gig ??
sorry fairly new to this stuff

My 160GB Pod currently has 118GB of music in various formats and bit rates. That music will play for 58 days.
Even without knowing what Bit Rate you are using (the higher the Bit Rate, the more space each minute of audio uses for storage), is approximately 58 days enough storage time for you?

I Pod classic 160 gb Battery Problem

Otherwise the i tunes seems to be working fine.

Pending Sectors: 128
Power on Hours: 55

Can anypne please help me how to get out of this issue?
Since I have formatted the drive,I have no songs and I donot want to buy a new one.
Thanks

I am having the same problem! Ever since the last 2 or 3 newer versions of iTunes updates!
Ugh!

Ipod Classic 160 6th g. doesn't sync w/Imac g5 non intel OS 10.4.11. This is a replacement for same ipod which was stolen recently. That pod worked fine with Itunes 9! Now this pod says it only works with Itunes 10.7. ***!!!! Why has Apple screwed up?

My ipod classic 160 6th gen. was recently stolen. It had 3000 tunes on it and it synced perfectly with Itunes 9 on my Imac G5 non intel OS 10.4.11. So I recently bought same model and guess what, it doesn't sync at all. Now message says it only works with Itunes 10.7 and up. I certainly cant afford to buy a new intel based Mac and I really dont need a new pc. It feels like Apple has dropped the ball on its long time users and tough luck to you and all the $$$$$$$ spent on downloading songs and buying ipods over the years! I AM SO ANGRY THAT I CANNOT BRING MY MUSIC WITH ME ANYMORE. I dont know if there is any solution to this except being extorted to upgrade to new tech! I have been trying to get answers to this issue but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not a tech genius so extremely techy solutions will be in vane.

one more detail, after a restore, when I attempt to reload music to the ipod, if I try and move, say, 20 files, the transfer seems to work as it should but then stalls on the last file. Eventually, the status will change to "Updates Files on (my ipod)" a and suggests the iPod is syncing even though I have the auto sync feature turned off.
This process eventually works itself out, and seems to take longer relative to the number of files I attempt to transfer. Once done, howver, if I try and eject and dismount the iPod, iTunes stalls with the spinning pinwheel and I am warned that the iPod is syncing again with the spinning candy cane status bar. Eventually thisd works itself out and the iPod dismounts from iTunes and the desktop and eventually the iPod is free to disconnect.
Then if I try and play the music I just transfered, the iPod says there is no music loaded.
Ideas?

My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode and won't turn off, itunes doesn't recognize it - ¿how can I make it work again?

My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode. I responds to nothing. iTunes doesn't recognize it. It doesn't sync. I've tried to restore and got error 1429. Now it just stays in disc mode and won't turn off. I'm keeping it connected to the charger so it doesn't go dead. Is there anything I can do to resurrect my pod?

To get out of disk mode do a iPod Hard Reset.
Toggle the Hold switch till you dont see the red mark.
Press Menu and Center buttons simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
See this Apple support Article on the 5Rs.

Ipod classic 160 usb not recognized

Ipod Classic 160 (not recognized by computer) and under Ipod Diagonistics (no Ipod found). I have two other Ipods which I-Tunes and my computer recognizes. I have reset Ipod to no avail. Because I am unable to connect to I-Tunes with the Ipod I am unable to restore or reset. I have watched all the YouTube videos and followed each. One thing that is strange is it will not test or disconnect from disk mode. I really enjoyed this I pod and hope one of you can resolve this problem for me. Thanks

Howdy spacecraft24,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
From what I gather, your iPod classic isn’t recognized by iTunes on your PC. Take a look at the article linked below and try running through the troubleshooting suggestions that it provides.

Classic 160 freezes after last two iTunes revisions?

Setup is iPod Classic 160 on Win XP, "convert to 128 AAC"; since the last two iTunes revisions, the Pod more often than not freezes when selecting a playlist and trying to play it. As soon as "play" is pressed, the Pod freezes or reboots; same with "random songs" (or whatever it's called in the English version). Any suggestions?

Found a possible solution - switching off the "convert to AAC" option seems to do the trick. Too bad this feature appears to have become unusable (again)...

What cable do I need to connect an i-pod classic to a Boze Wave machine?

What cable do I need to connect an I-pod classic to a Boze wave machine?

If you're trying to transfer the music, from the Nano to the Air, you have to either download your purchased songs again in the purchased tab of iTunes or sync them to the Air, using iTunes on your computer.
Its been a few years since I've used a Nano, but IIRC, the only way to get the music on the device to begin with is by syncing with iTunes, so the songs have to be in your iTunes library.

Is there a better way to share your music library outside your home network other than using an i-Pod classic?

APPLE-Here's a complement and a question. Why has the i-Pod Classic fallen from grace compared to other i-Pods? Please know that while I can share my music using home sharing within my home network with a different i-Tune account, it seems to me that the best benefit of having an i-Pod Classic is that you can give your dedicated music library and device to a friend or housemate to use outside your wireless network (and not on the internet) to use while traveling. Am I wrong? Is there a benefit to sharing the cloud usage with a friend. Add that to the click wheel and I think I'm going to be a fan of the i-Pod Classic far longer than it is in production. I hope Apple NEVER stops production of this device. Are you listening Apple?

Yes it is, and it's precisely what the music industry has been fighting about for years.
Interpreting the law to suit yourself does not render law ineffective. Apple's Terms of Use mention this:
Keep within the Law
No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise 'work around' digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about 'ripping' DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
...which is why my original response was framed as it was. Nothing to do with "attack mode". (You're the one with an "attack style" user name.)
Fightthegoodfightnow wrote:
Heck, as I understand it, I can legally burn up to five copies of a bought song for noncommercial, personal use....so copying in and of itself is also not illegal.
As I recall, the music industry has acknowledged that making a copy of a CD (that you own, and still have in your possession) is regarded as "Fair Use" - and is therefore tolerated. But until that point was established just a few years ago, then technically, it was illegal to rip a CD into iTunes and onto an iPod. Slightly different to your interpretation. That same music industry (and the musicians) regard the following as unacceptable:
keeping a copy of a CD but disposing of that CD to someone else
lending the CD to friends, so that they can make a copy
making copies and giving them or selling them to someone else
But what is okay is:
Home sharing
use of the CD by someone in your family, living under the same roof
At this time, if a couple wish to combine their two iTunes accounts of purchased digital music once they get married, they cannot. Perhaps that's where Home Sharing comes in.

The hard drive was recently replaced on my computer and I now only have music purchased from i-tunes store showing in my library. Is there a way of syncing from i-pod classic back to library without re-copying all my cd-collection?

My Ipod Classic 160 GB will charge but is not recognized on my macbook or in itunes. Just began suddenly

I purchased my Ipod Classic 160 GB about a year ago new and never had any issues until lately. I recently updated my itunes to the newest version and my Ipod seemed fine and didn't have any trouble. About a week later my Ipod was no longer recognized by Itunes or my Mac book. The catch is, that my Ipod is still able to charge but never shows any signs of connection besides the charging screen. I have no clue where to begin.
Any help would be awesome! Thanks

Have you updated your iPod and iTunes sofware?
most cases, iTunes can play these high quality songs, which is meant for newer mobile devices like iPhones, iPod Touch, nano and iPad, which the older iPod cant play, but only playable with iPod classic sofware version 2.0.4
most likely it is an incompatible song format, read this Apple support article.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1334?viewlocale=en_USet
If your iPod software is version 1.1.2, then you have to use lower quality format.
Can you select the problematic song, and Advance -> create iPod version
