IPod Classic 7th Generation gets stuck (freezes).

I bought my Ipod Classic 160 7th Gen. 3-4 months back. For fist time I restored my Ipod. Everytime when I connect my Ipod to latop it gets stuck (freezes). So, everytime I required to reboot or reset it by Pressing Menu and Center button simultaneously. While connecting IPod I disconnect all other USB devices.

Hello mayur_mahajan,
I would be concerned too if my iPod classic would freeze everytime I connected it to iTunes. I recommend following the steps in the tutorial below:

My ipod nano 7th generation is stuck in a restore loop with a white screen. Now it won't turn on anymore. What to do?

My new Ipod Nano 7th generation is stuck in a restore loop. Here is what happened: I added music to it using the latest version of iTunes, the colored bar at the bottom of the summary tab in iTunes showed my that I added it and I disconnected it to listen to the music. As I turned it on, it told me that there is neither music nor pictures on it. So I connected it again to my computer and iTunes told me that I had to restore. Which I did following all the steps but it keep telling me that I need to restore it. After three times of restore it, I disconnected it from my PC and turned it off. Now it won't turn on anymore - even though the battery is fully charged - and when I connect it to iTunes, iTunes tell me "The iPod software updater could not be contacted. The server does not support this version of iTunes." Well, I just downloaded the newest version a couple of minutes ago from the apple website. My iPod stays black. What shall I do?

Hi clarity,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
You may want to first try removing and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes by following the steps in this article:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

If you continue to receive the error message when connecting your iPod, see this article for more troubleshooting tips:

Does the iPod Classic 7th generation support movies in the HD format?

Does the iPod Classic 7th generation support movies in the HD format as well as SD or just SD?

No, the max resolution for video playback is generally 640x480, as stated in the specs
http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/specs.html
The screen is actually half of that resolution, at 320x240. HD at 720p is 1280x720. HD at 1080p is 1920x1080

Make an appointment at the genius bar.
If you went without an appointment, then it would make sense that you could be turned away.

IPod Classic (7th Generation) won't reset to factory settings...

Hi, I have a Apple iPod classic 160 GB Black (7th Generation). I had tried to sync it to my MacBook Pro, which the iPod was set up with, will not show up in iTunes. I will get an error message "The iPod "iPod" could not be restored because it could not be found." Then I'll get another error message "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPod " Chris' Classic 160 iPod." Go to the Summary tab in iPod preferences and click Restore to restore this iPod to factory settings." When I go to "About this iPod" it shows that there are no songs, movies, photos, podcasts or contacts. There are four games loaded on the iPod. But, it shows 41.5 GB used and 107 GB free.
This is what I have done up to this point:
Disconnect and reconnect your iPod to iTunes, and then attempt to restore or update the iPod again. Also, I've tried other USB cords.
Restart your computer and then attempt to restore or update the iPod again.
Try connecting your iPod to a different USB port, and then attempt to restore or update the iPod again. Connecting to a USB 2.0 port is recommended. For Windows computers, refer to Identifying USB 2.0 ports on your computer for instructions.
Remove any USB devices not manufactured by Apple that you have connected to your computer (it is not necessary to remove your keyboard or mouse). Then, attempt to restore or update the iPod again.
Update to the latest version of iTunes, and then attempt to restore or update the iPod again.
How do I clear out that 41.5 GB from the iPod? What can I do to reset the factory settings on the iPod?

Do the iPod disk diagnostic on your iPod, as in this excellent earlier post by tt2.
It wont fix your problem, but help us in troubleshooting.
then, Use Disk Utility->FirstAid->Repair ( may take 30 minutes )
Failing that Disk Utility -> Erase
This will reformat the iPod ( try using FAT32, instaed of HFS+) may take 4 hours.

I have an ipod classic (7th generation, i believe) that i am trying to repair for a friend that has become corrupted, but when plugged in goes from corrupted to an error message. how do i fix this?

my friend was recently in a car crash, and since then, he's ipod classic (180gb, 7th generation i think) has been on the fritz. from what he has told me, when plugged in, it says it is corrpted, but then it goes to an error (which i cannot identify right now).any solutions, or do i need to come back with more info?

Well the iPod is supposed to be synced from YOUR iTunes music library, if you used other means to put music on there then the iPod is going to sync to only what's on your itunes music library when you connect it.
You need to put the files into itunes.
Far as your other issues, sounds like the drive is dying.

Ipod Classic 7th generation will not sync with all movies in Itunes

I just bought an Ipod classic today, due to my iphone 5 not able to connect to my car entertainment system and car stereo. Needing a 30 pin to connect to it. So I bought it, connected it to my mac computer, and not all the movie files will sync to it. I get this message:
For some reason, some of my movies will transfer to the ipod classic, and some will not. They are all m4v files. Does anyone have a suggestion?

The files that won't copy probably have too high a data rate. From http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/specs.html

What happens when my ipod classic 5th generation is stuck on the do not disconnect screen?

first you must connect it to pc or mac, then attemptto reset once that happens it should come back up and only when the red circle blinks then it will show up on itunes display again, then you push eject wait till regular ipod screen come up showing music, videos, etc, then you take of ipod usb.

Try holding down menu and the center button for a few seconds, until the apple symbol appears. This has always worked for me
