IPod 15 gb. totally freezed...

My iPod is in a freezed mode with the display on.
It does`nt matter if I try to charge it,unlock it several times or connect or disconnect to my emac.
Nothing happens!
For a moment I could hear the click sound when I tried to click on it but after a while the click sound was gone too.
Please help me!

Yeah, if it ever freezes again, resetting is your friend. Hold Menu and Play/Pause for 6-10 seconds. And you'll get that lovely Apple logo
Also, by 15GB I assume you have a 3rd Gen (touch-sensitive wheel with 4 buttons ABOVE wheel that light up red). The poster above me recommended Menu and Center button. However, that is how you reset an iPod with a click wheel. Menu and Play/Pause will reset a 3rd gen.

IPOD causing PC freeze!

I recently downloaded an itunes update 7.0.2.16. After the update, the program prompted the update of my IPOD nano (gen 1) which I went ahead and did. For some reason, all the songs got erased. I can live with that...but the problem is that whenever I plug in my nano, the iTunes program totally freezes. I can't even run the diagnostics since the nano won't let me do anything in itunes when its plugged in. I'm at a bit of a loss. Even when I try and look at "My computer" when my nano is plugged in...windows does not seem to recognize it there. I never had any problems before (had nano for 6 months). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Go into iPod Diskmode, and using Window explorer check for files that is using up space, delete these files, all music files should be under iPod control folder.
Antivirus has a tendency to freeze Itunes sync Operation with Ipod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your Ipod filesystem.
My suggestion.
Connect your Ipod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror.
Disconnect from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
Stop the Antivirus program
Connect your Ipod to the PC
When Itunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well, since you got such a huge library.
When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected start back your Antivirus and coonet back the Internet.
Good Luck!

Transfering songs over on iPod with iTunes = Freeze

I recently got a new laptop with Windows Vista running on it. I downloaded iTunes to be able to transfer songs from my laptop to my iPod. Everything worked fine as it has done on my old laptop with XP until one day when I tried to delete songs from my iPod or disconnect my iPod from my iTunes it started to totally freeze and just "not answering". I tried to use my old laptop again to transfer songs and the same happened.
The half-transfered songs I have on my iPod isn't working. They are there, but nothing happens when I click play on them.
Does anyone have a similar problem?
My iPod is an iPod Color 20GB bought 2 years ago or something. Currently have around 3000 songs on it.

I accidently erased a lot of the songs on my I-pod (when trying to add a playlist, it was added and everything else erased). Upon attempting to transfer songs back, the sync froze (many times). Luckily I have a MacBook and was able to transfer my songs back to my IPod with that. The ITunes in the Mini has been updated, I tried using another port, I restarted the computer many times; it will start to sync then it will freeze, usually at the same place. What's up with that?

I have a 5th gen ipod nano that freezes when playing songs. i can't turn off, change songs, turn volume down. song stays stuck and nothing works at all. any ideas??

i have a 5th gen ipod nano that freezes when playing songs. i can't skip, turn down volume, turn ipod off. it simply screeches as the song is stuck at a specific point. any suggestions?

You have 2 options: #1 - iPod Repair Tutorials
#2 - take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

IPod causing iTunes freeze

Hi guys,
hope someone can help as this has had me flummoxed for a good few hours and nothing as of yet I have come across has helped me in fixing my iPod (5th Gen).
Basically when attempting to use iTunes (with my iPod connected), iTunes freezes and forces itself to shutdown, I have tried to remedy this by resetting the iPod (unable to enter diagnostic mode or disk mode), reinstalled iTunes, used a different computer to see if it was my computer and god knows what else to get it working again but as of yet no luck, without accessing iTunes I can't restore original factory settings to the iPod either (which is now the aim).
Any suggestions on what I can do or how to remedy the situation?
Thanks

Pretty much the same story here. I don't know if this is related to the latest version of iTunes, which I recently updated? Is there a bug?
When I connect the iPod (5th generation video), I get "Updating <ipod name>..." screen, and it hangs. IPod says to not disconnect. It never recovers.
I've tried:
-Removing and reinstalling iTunes
-Checking off the setting to NOT automatically synch ipods and iphones
-Turning off my anti-virus
-Reading through all the support articles, which suggest to reset the iPod to factory settings...
The kicker is that I can't do a factory reset of the iPod or update the firmware without connecting to iTunes, of course.
I guess it's hopeless. Time to throw the iPod out??? Seriously, what to do?

My ipod classic is freeze, my ipod classic is freeze, my ipod classic is freeze

my ipod classic is freeze what do i do

I tried that and it kept freezing up often so I reset it to the factory setings and now my computer recognizes it,but Itunes freezes everytime without fail. so now I have an empty Ipod that I can sync. any suggestions on how to fix that

My brand new iPod is totally blocked.... (?!)

hi there,
Can someone help out?
Our iPod is totally blocked and nothing works to get it going again (on/off button at top... home button.... and/or combination of both)
Connecting to computer (itunes) also doesn't help a thing.... out of options for the moment.
Next thing is to just sit and wait till battery's dead.... will take hours.... and then 'hope' all's fine again.
Looking forward to any suggestion.
thanks a lot,
E.

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My 2 month old Iphone is losing it's mind. It's randomly turning on Voice Command and calling people or turning on the IPod. It freezes up and won't let me go back to the home screen.

My 2 month old IPhone started randomly turning on Voice Command and calls people and turns on the IPod. It freezes up and won't let me push the home button. Any suggestions?

OK, I reset it several times and it worked fine all day yesterday. Today when I turned on the bluetooth it went back to the same problem. Voice Control comes on and the home button won't work at all. I have gone through the reset many times and it isn't working. How do I restore firmware as you suggested?

My ipod keeps on freezing with every two songs.

my ipod keeps on freezing.i have read the other post but mine is different.recently every time i listen to my ipod it keeps on freezeing on the song list with every other song as in one song would work..the3n the next it would freeze and nothing can unfreeze the screen.i tried resetting the ipod and it happens again and again.does anyone know how i can fix my ipod so that i dont have to resent it everytime it freezes like every 5 mins?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

Ipod not syncing freezes

ipod 80gb classic freezes itunes after transferring a fraction of my music, then ipod says it has no music. Freezes itunes and can not get back

I'm not sure that if this is exactly the same problem you're having but it sounds similiar...
I have just purchased a new ipod classic 160, and have attempted to sync it with my itunes 9.1 library. It managed to sync about 3 Gb and then an error message came up saying "Attempting to copy to the disk "iPod" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to." I then tried manually transferring the music and was successful with some of the music, but with other tracks the same error message came up. I performed a restore on the iPod, as I initially formatted it on a PC, not my Mac, and thought this might be the problem. Unfortunately this didn't fix it. As far as I can see there is no pattern to the tracks that it won't load on (well not to my eyes anyway). I would be grateful for any suggestions as I'm off traveling in a few days time without my laptop and can't imagine myself without my music collection!

Hi...Just got a Ipod and in our house we have 3 ipod touch total. Can we put 3 ipods in itune?

Hi...Just got a Ipod and in our house we have 3 ipod touch total. Can we put 3 ipods in itune?

Yes. When you connect your devices, iTunes knows which one is which so you can customize what does and does not get synched to each device.
The only caveat is each user needs to have their own unique Apple ID AND their own account on the computer so you can keep purchased apps and such separate...
By having separate computer accounts, each user has their own "space" to put stuff in. iTunes knows this and will make individual iTunes library folders for each user.

I had an iPod Classic 5th Gen that I upgraded from 30gb to 80gb. The problem I'm having is that it will not more than about 5.4gb worth of songs. The iPod begins to freeze mid sync and the (-69) error message haults the sync.

I had an iPod Classic 5th Gen that I upgraded from 30gb to 80gb. The problem I'm having is that it will not sync more than about 5.4gb worth of songs. The iPod begins to freeze mid sync and the (-69) error message haults the sync process. The hard drive has been upgraded, it has a new logicboard (with 128mb RAM), new housing, battery, hold / headphone jack. Basically the only original parts are the bezel, click wheel, screen, and data ribbons. Have attempted the 3Rs and have also tried to isolate potentially corrupt audio files and remove them, but this did not seem to be the primary cause. The sync failure consistently happens at just under a 1000 songs (5.4gb) and then it starts to error (-69) any song after that. Your advise would be enthusiastically received.

Here is what worked for me:
My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

Why does my iPod touch keep freezing when I attempt to turn off iCloud Keychain in the settings?

Everytime I try to turn off iCloud Keychain, my iPod's
Screen freezes and automatically turns iCloud Keychain back on. I really don't want ICloud Keychain and it has been a while since I tried to turn it off.

make sure you read through all of the relies since the last one seems to apply in your case.

IPod Classic keeps freezing...what do I do?

My iPod Classic keeps freezing. It still plays music, but then the screen freezes and won't let me command the device until the backlight switches off. I noticed it's got a bit worse since I bought 'Bush' iPod speakers to play my music out loud through my iPod. What do I do? It's getting annoying.

Hi Candyfornia,
I think you must restore your iPod (with iTunes) to solve your problem...
