  • I added 2 cd's to itunes 11, I have an ipod classic 30gb, how do I export the albums from itunes to my ipod?

    Hi Ihave an ipod classic 30gb, i imported 2 cd's into itunes on win xp pro sp3, how do I export the albums from itunes to my ipod?

    It depends on how you previously added content to the iPod?  Or are saying the iPod is currently empty, and you want to add these albums to it?
    If you want to sync your entire iTunes music library to the iPod, which may or may not be just these two albums at this point, you can do the following.  Select the iPod in iTunes, so that you see the iPod's "management" screen.  If you are using the latest iTunes 12, you do this by clicking the "device button" on the horizontal bar that goes across the iTunes window (near the top).  The button's icon looks like the connected device.
    On the iPod's screen, there is a sidebar (along left side of window).  In the sidebar, under Settings, click Music.  To the right, the iPod's Music settings screen is shown, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.  Near the top, there is a checkbox for Sync Music.  Check that box to enable automatic syncing.  NOTE:  If that box is not already checked, checking it will replace the iPod's existing content with content from your iTunes library.  Any songs on the iPod now that are not in your current iTunes library will be lost.
    Below that setting, there are two options for how to sync songs.  30GB is a decent amount of storage space, so if your entire iTunes library can fit on your iPod, you can use the option to sync Entire music library.  Then click Apply.  iTunes syncs your entire iTunes music library to your iPod.  Going forward, any changes to your iTunes music library (such as adding more albums or songs) will sync automatically to the iPod, the next time it is connected (or when you click Sync if already connected).
    If your situation is different, please reply back with more details.

  • IPod classic 30gb not holding charge

    As stated above I have an iPod classic 30gb. After a few mins of removing from charger the iPod dies. Is there any way the battery can be replaced.?

    You can hope that when it dries out that it will work. You shouldn't have turned it on yet....so let it sit for a few days and then see if it works. Other than that there isn't much you can do.

  • Does my iPod Classic 30GB, software version 1.3 work with Lion and iCloud?

    I have a iPod Classic, 30GB, software version 1.3 does it work with Lion?

    only iOS devices like ipod touch(in wifi), ipad(in wifi), or iphone(in wifi) can sync automatically without the dock connector
    so yes you do have to sync them onto your classic

  • Ipod Classic 160GB crashes and reboots during Video playback :S

    I recently brought a film on itunes and have watched it on my computer and it works fine, i have also tested its playback on 4 other video ipods but when i try to watch it on my ipod classic it crashes and reboots after about 20 minutes, however i can click the select button and get past the crashing point and the film plays fine. Can anybody help? i also have 4 other films on there that work fine its just this certain point on the movie.
    My ipod is an ipod classic 160GB bought on the 14th January 2011

    just wondering if you were using Vista ( Nvidia drivers) with SATA drives. I have the same problem as you and i thought it was a problem with my ipod touch. My friend has an ipod touch as well and i tried to copy the file to his ipod and the same problem occurred. played for about 10 minutes and crashed both ipods, sometimes back to menu other times reboots to apple symbol.
    I Copied the same file to my ipod classic and there were no problems. played perfectly on my other ipod. I tried 3 other files and same thing happened everytime. I cant get any video files to play without rebooting the ipod touch.
    I then copied the same files to my laptop with an IDE hard drive running XP and it works perfectly.
    Dont know why or how i can fix the problem but i now only transfer video files on my laptop instead of my brand new super fast Vista PC. could be the PC is trying to transfer files too quickly and they become corrupted somehow. Its very annoying but the workaround works until a solution is found.
    hope this helps

    I purchased a used iPod Classic and can't get it to sync to iTunes.  If I click on Devices it asks if I want to transfer Purchases which I select Cancel - the SYNC option is grayed out.
    Please suggest fixes.

    Hello mkplumlee,
    I would recommend restoring the iPod to factory settings.

  • I have an IPOD Classic 30GB.  I thought the battery was not recharging so I bought a new battery and had it installed.  The device will come on and has a message on the screen "Please wait.  Very low battery."

    I have an IPOD Classic 30GB.  It would not stay on but a few seconds so I thought the battery was not recharging and bought a new battery.  I charged the new battery overnight and when I turned it on I could see the apple for only a few seconds and it would go off.  I tried the trouble shooting suggestions and reset the device. The screen is frozen with the message "Please Wait.  Very low battery." I also thought it might be a problem with the display but since it is on now, I'm not sure what is going on with it.

    There are several types of iPods that are "30GB," 3rd gen ("dock connector"), 4th gen ("click wheel" or "photo"), and 5th gen ("video").  This documents shows the iPod models

    Which one is your iPod?  Do you use a Mac or Windows PC?  Do you have a power adapter?

  • My ipod classic 160 GB continually reboots itself after crashing about a half hour ago.  How can I fix this?

    Please help me figure out how to fix this situation, whether I can reset it or whether I need it serviced.  I tried the center and menu buttons, and again, it just kept rebooting itself.
    I stopped upgrading iTunes at 10.3.1, so please don't suggest that I upgrade because I need my Front Row.  Plus, my iPod has been working for at least 6 months with 10.3.1.
    Thank you,

  • Ipod classic 30gb white screen-whirring

    hi all. hopefully i can get some help on here although im afraid i already know the answer....ok older ipod classic. 30gb. worked great for yrs. then started freezing up more and more. wouldnt hold a chrarge very long. then one day plugged into kitchen dock and got a white flashing screen with a very loud whirring noise. no face or instructions on screen. so i thought mabey bad battery. got one from amazon. installed, came right on worked great. was told to run battery down all the way so it can be charged fully when 1st recharge comes around. plugged into dock, same thing, white screen, whirring. so, then i thought the hard drive, got one again from amazon (used, they dont mention that) installed this morning. put in dock, same thing. so am i looking at a logic board? or mother board? im aproaching the limit of the cost effectness?? of replacing parts now....ps if in fact its a bad mother, can i use the "new" hard drive and battery for our ipod 160gb??  thank you for your response.

    I have the same problem that you do. I have tried all, restart, reboot, restore to its original settings and nothing. I have tried using the battery to run it off and I have charged it again and nothing happened. The equipment reproduces music, but with a white screem is imposible to operate it. I guess I will try to use the warranty, but I live abroad the US. If you have any progress, please let me know. Good luck, regards, ajlorenzos

  • Video format for ipod classic 30gb

    Hi,
    I've just bought a music video from the iTunes Store, but, when I try putting it on my older click wheel 30gb Ipod Classic, iTunes tells me it wasn't copied to the Ipod because it cannot be played on the Ipod. I checked the music video's format and found out it was m4v. Could that be the source of the problem? If so, do I have to convert it to mp4 or something similar? And how do I do that?
    Any advice or help?

    A 30GB iPod that plays video is a 5th gen iPod.  NOTE:  The 4th gen "classic" iPod with color display may also be 30GB, but those iPods cannot play videos.
    Video format may be an issue, because the first iPod with video capability had a lower limit for video resolution. And if the video is "HD," that video is too high-res for even a new iPod classic.
    NOTE:  You can convert videos in iTunes using the command
    menu bar -> File -> Create New Version -> Create iPod or iPhone Version
    but that command is disabled for videos that use DRM (copy protection).  A purchased video (such as a musiuc video) from the iTunes Store uses DRM.  For purchased videso that are HD, you may be entitled to also download the SD (standard definition) version at no cost.  The SD version may play on your iPod.
