Ipod classic 40gb 4th generation problems

ipod classic 4th generation error 1429, can't reset via ipod itself, yet when itunes regonized ipod, it freezes when trying to restore it. ipod also have a folder with explanation mark icon. Windows 7 also wants to format the drive on ipod. Help as I just seem to be stuck in a rut with it!
Thanks

Yes it does, one that is functioning properly.
Before investing in one to just use this as a portable external drive, I'd look around on the internet for a low priced portable drive instead.

    please anybody can help me!
    I've got an IPOD Classic 60gb 5th generation (year 2006)
    my radio support still working but i can't hear music anymore!
    why?

    Reset the iPod
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.

  • IPod Shuffle (4G / 4th Generation) w/ Software Version 1.0.1, iTunes does not find 1.0.2 update

    I have an iPod Shuffle (4G / 4th Generation / A1373) running Software Version 1.0.1. I know that version 1.0.2 is available. However, iTunes says that there is no update for it. I have reset the iPod Shuffle and tried everything I can think of.
    Any advice / information would be greatly appreciated.

    My 1.0.1 is not being recognized by the latest version of Itunes...11.1.3.  Really getting fed up with Apples "upgrades" obsoleting other hardware and software...particularly their own.

    Yes, there literally hundreds of video editing Apps for the iPod in the App Store if you want to edit directly on the iPod.
    Alternatively, you can always download the video to your computer and edit it there with any video editor of your choice.

  • IPod Touch 3rd Generation/4th Generation Problems

    Okay, i got a new iPod Touch 4th Generation yesterday and im having some troubles. (I also have a 3rd Generation)
    My first problem is I bought a seperate (not apple) charger for my 3rd generation. its a black USB cord that connects from the iPod to a wall charger. It's been working perfectly and ever since i tired plugging it into my 4th generation, (i had a bit of trouble putting it in the 4th generation, i first thought that it was too small for it, but then with a little, maybe more, force it went it. And ever since i put it in the 4G its been having connection problems, its like connection thing (on the cord) got messed up, and when i go to pick up my iPod (either one) when it's plugged in, it's like it comes unplugged (but it will be in the iPod) if you move it around a certain way (i've learned not to wiggle it, because of the damages it causes) and it will do that (say its unplugged, when it's not) for a couple of times and then on iTunes it says "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because an unknown error has occured (0xE8000001)" the thing that confuses me is that i DONT own/have an iPhone. so any help on that?
    my second problem is that i was hoping to being able to transfer all my apps on my iPod(3rd G) to my new one (iPod 4G) and i am having trouble with that. It's like iTunes isn't putting the app data onto my library, when i plug in my iPod(3G) i'll press transfer purchased apps, and its like it didn't tranfer anything and when i go to my library on iTunes there will be a little "!" next to an app and if you double click on it then it says "The app '___(name)___' could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" and all the apps that it "cant locate" are STILL on my iPod, and some of the apps that it can't locate are some that i bought.
    its a lot of stress that im going thru right now because of these problems, if you can help me out in ANY way possible, can you please do so? thank you very muchh!!!(:

    Try getting the "BUMP" app from iTunes. I have it(but I haven't tried it yet.) Supposedly you can use it to transfer Apps "from your iPod to a friends iPod". This may help with the transferring of your apps.

  • Ipod nano 4th generation problem? :/

    Hi! Ok, so this is what happened.
    The other day, I was listening to my ipod (Which like I said, is a green 8GB, 4th generation ipod Nano) and the battery was dying. I went to plug it in, but the computer didn't pick it up, and it died anyway while hooked up. Now, my computer sees it as an "Unknown device" and it won't show up in itunes. It won't turn on now either. I've searched everywhere for an answer but they all say the same thing "Press and hold the menu and center buttons down". I've tried that before, it's not working. My charger isn't an apple one though (It's a black one that folds up, we bought it from walmart)...could that be the problem? I believe it's the driver, but I'm not sure how to go about fixing it..so..any ideas?
    Thank you for reading.

    Solved, it WAS the charger. Lol.

  • Pod touch 4th Generation Problems?

    now on my 3rd iPod touch 4th Generation and still having the same problems! It's unresponsive to touch, apps crash, too slow, freezes, music skipping etc. I have been to the apple store twice and they've just replaced it and they are not sure why it is dong it :/ and now this new one has done the exact same thing! not sure if its to do with this generation, considering upgrading to the 5th Generation with my insurance if I can! anyone else expriencing this?

    Hi,
    Most of what I experienced as similar issues on 3rd and 4th iPod Gen was related to a lack of memory.  These devices only got 256Mo of RAM while only the 5th Gen get the 512 as the iPhones.  If you are running multiples high memory usage apps, it may explains your issues.
    Usually, closing all open apps from your start bar and restarting your iPod should improve a little.  If you want to do a test to know if what you are experiencing is related to lack of memory, your content being somehow corrupt or the device itself, try restoring your device to its factory setting and look if it work fine.
    Most apps that were crasing on my previous 4th gen iPod was games that was requiring a lot of RAM.  It seems that they are designed to take advantage of most today's iPhones hardware and kind of leaving the poor old iPod behind.  They all work fine on the 5th gen and I experience good responsiveness.

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup...  Restore as New...
    If you have tried all these steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...

  • Unknown Device ipod Classic and Windows Vista problem??

    Help!! My ipod Classic is not being recognized by my computer. I have read the previous articles and tried the solutions but I continue to get the result "Windows has determined that the driver software is up to date" I continue to get the error noise when I plug the USB in and the Device manager continues to say "Unknown Device" It seems others are having this problem, how do I fix this?

    I am having the same trouble with mine, and I can say that it isn't iTunes, I plugged my brothers iPod Nano in and it worked like a charm, but when I plugged my iPod Classic 160g in all it says is it is an "unknown divice". It isn't Vista either as the same thing happens on XP Pro as well, so all I can think of is it is a error on the Classic itself. I just wish someone can help out so that I can use my ipod!!!! Come on Apple!!!! Solve this problem!!!!
