Cured the problem! Reinstalled an earlier version of itunes from oldapps.com (version 10) now everything works as it should. I would suggest that if you are experiencing these problems that you do the same. I must say that it is a brave business decision on behalf of apple to effectively lock out all windows 7 users from their products and sales channels and I can only wish them luck in this very shortsighted policy.

  • My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!

    My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!
    I've had this from new for 2 years, the battery life is excellent and lasts for days so I know it's not a power issue as it was fully charged that morning. No signs of connection in itunes, it's not showing as a connected device.
    Can anyone please help?

    Can you elaborate a little? Are you saying that iPod keeps randomly jumping to another song midway through another?  There could be many reasons for this.
    The first thing you should do is try a hard reset of the device.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Also try the troubleshooting mentioned here.

  • IPod Classic 160gb No longer Syncs

    I've had my iPod classic for about 2 years now and have had no problems other than a few issues with displaying the correct album artwork.
    Two days ago, my iPod started to fail syncs, with a variety of error messages, including error 53, error 1392, claimed as corrupted and unreadable, claimed as being unable to be found, and claimed as having duplicate file names. It will sync up to a certain point and then dump two to four error messages on me, with no pattern I can discern.
    I have tried restarting my computer, restoring my iPod, letting windows 'fix the errors on my drive', and reinstalling iTunes, as well as manually loading my songs onto my iPod and turning off Windows UAC, all in a variety of orders.
    Stranger still, the syncing process will leave about 1500 songs on my iPod, out of my library of over 10,000, with no pattern I can discern.
    I would be very thankful for any help.

    ok, when i convert a video .mpg file into .mp4...then Sync it into ipod.it goes into my VIDEOS folder on ipod. but when i play the video...
    visuals appear, clip plays...but no sound. why is this?
    Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

  • IPod Classic 160GB film library sync problem -  trying to sync films that have converted from purchased DVD to mp4 format locally, not purchases from the online store - all other libraries sync perfect - why?

    Hello Apple and the iTunes Windows PC users community.
    I am trying to sync films that I have converted from purchased DVD to mp4 format locally, not purchases from the online store. The mp4s all appear and play successfully in my iTunes application but will not sync across to the iPod film library folder.
    For your information: I am using iTunes 11.1.3.8 on a Windows 7 64bit machine with 500GB hard disk and 8GB of Ram in the UK.
    I have restored the iPod classic 160GB three times now to see if it was a hardware problem with no joy. Each time all the music restores properly as do the podcasts and all the items in TV programmes all appear to sync and work fine.
    I have also tried to copy films into the TV Programmes to get around it with no joy. They always go to the films section to start with. It is just the Films library that does not sync - all others work perfectly. As a last resort I have uninstalled and re-installed iTunes with no joy either.
    I am technically savvy and have gone through the itunes and ipod settings but nothing appears to make a difference - This is the first time I have had to post here as I can usually solve the majority of the ipod anomilies but this one has me flummoxed.
    Has the film encoding type changed in the newest itunes update? - Has this happened to anybody else and is it a hardware, software, or operating system problem.

    Having uninstalled the current version 11.1.3.8 and loaded and older version of iTunes 10.7.0.21 I can now categorically confirm that the newest update seems to be causing the problem as the films and TV Programmes are syncing perfectly on this older version.
    If you are going to do this please dont forget to remove the  ' iTunes Library.itl' file as this stops the older versions from running as I've just found out

  • I have an ipod nano 8gb which is full, my husband is a jazz fan, I am thinking of buying another ipod classic 160gb - is it possible to link this to the same library in itunes and just put all his jazz on the new ipod?

    I have an ipod nono 8gb which is about 5 years old and is full - my husband is a jazz fan, and now I have  jazz on my little ipod and my ipod touch. I am thinking of getting an ipod classic 160gb and putting all his jazz on to it. Is it possible for me to link it to my Itunes library and his Itunes library and just put all the jazz on to the new Ipod classic? if so, how do I then delete the jazz of the other two ipods?

    There is no limit to the number of iPods you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account. 
    You might want to create a seperate iTunes library for him, perhaps on another user account on the system and move all of his Jazz music over to that new library.  Once you have all of his music moved over to his own library, remove it from your own and then resync both of your iPods to clear his music off.  This is just one way to do it.

  • IPod Classic 160gb won't sync a song?

    My ipod classic 160gb wont sync a song, it just says this song wont play on this ipod. Is there anyway I can fix it? Or make it sync? Or something?

    Hello danmic1,
    What format is this song in?  Have you tried converting it to another format via iTunes and then syncing the new version over to your iPod?  See this article for more information on converting your track to a different audio file format in iTunes.

  • Problem with my iPod classic 160gb - making funny noises, and no download

    Hi, At the same point every time i try to put music on my ipod classic 160gb, it begins to make a funny noise, and itunes and the ipod freezes. I have to disconnect it unproperly, and the message "The ipod disk could not be read from or written to", but my old music still remains. So i tried to restore the ipod on my macbook, but i still have the problem.
    This is the 4th Ipod classic 160gb i have had, and there has been a harddisk problem with all of them, so this could be the problem, but the funny click-clack sound is new to this one.
    Anybody in here have experience with such kind of problems?
    Hope to get the problem solved soon.
    Oliver Nash, DK.

    Unfortunately, when a hard drive starts clicking that means it's going bad. The mechanism is having trouble reading the drive. Since the iPod is mostly just a harddrive and a battery I have a feeling that this is your problem.
    watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMm6c3fr-fU
    about 25ss in is where the clicking starts. If it sounds like that, but softer and more muffled since it is a smaller drive that is being enclosed then I think you might be SOL. Maybe if you're iPod is still under warranty you can get a credit and go for a touch and avoid moving parts all together?

    When you say "her email address" do you mean that you set up a separate Apple ID for her using her email address as her Apple ID? If so, was it ever verified by Apple? Did she get the email verification?
