Ipod classic 80gig sync problem

when i download podcast into i tunes i set the release date to oldest to newest. When i sync the i pod and transfer podcasts to i pod they remain in same order. But after i eject the i pod and open into podcasts they are always the opposite way around ie newest to the top and oldest to the bottom.
Help please

i have the oposite of your problem. My iPOD shows the newest on the top and oldest on bottom. So in example if this was a book I would be reading the last chapter first, go figure. I tried everything I know how but remains like that. I learned to like it that way.if the newest podcast is interesting then I follow the story with the previous one. oh, by the way on the itunes shows in the correct order. I guess is a software thing.

ICal to iPod Classic 80gig sync problem

Hi,
just bought myself an iPod and wanted to sync my iCal (wich I just created for the first time) with my iPod. The problem is, that when I go to iTunes and check the box that says "Sync iCal calendars" it gives a message that says there aren't any calendars available, because I don't have any in my iCal. That's weird, cause I do have one...
I work on Leopard, have iTunes 7.5, the newest iPod software and iCal 3.0
Anybody know how to sync my Apple and my iPod?

well, I fixed it by removing EVERYTHING on my mac that had anything to do with iCal, so I made a backup of my new calendar, then deleted every old entry I ever had made (turned out I had made one like a year ago).
I don't know if this next step was necessary, but I removed and re-installed iCal. Next thing I did was import my Calender backup and I could sync the calendars with my iPod just fine now.
Hope if someone has this problem, it will help!

Ipod classic 120GB sync problems

Whenever I try to sync my new iPod Classic 120GB with iTunes 8.1, it shows that it is transferring all the tracks, but when it is done, only a handful are transferred to the iPod. No error messages pop up, but when I sync it with an older version of iTunes, it seems to work just fine. The firmware on the iPod is already up-to-date and I've even done a restore, what can possibly be wrong which is causing the sync problems with iTune 8.1?

I have got the same problem, everything up-to-date. iTunes has about 80 gB of music, but synchronisation results in only 30 gB of music on my iPod. Apple's helpdesk first advised to reset the iPod: that meant another 24 hours of downloading, but the final result was even worse than the first time. Then they tried to convince me that my iTunes tracks perhaps were corrupt. But manually I can download every album. Finally they recommended to use manual synchronisation, that in fact means that the automatic sync option is no longer available! I cannot understand that Apple support is not aware of the problem and cannot properly fix it. Also after first contact by telephone there seems to be no possibility to complain by e-mail about the recommended "solution."

Unusual? iPod Classic connection/sync problem

I have an 80Gb iPod Classic, and iTunes 8.1 running on Windows XP.
With iTunes open, I connect the iPod.
The iPod screen says connecting...synchronising...
Then the iPod appears in the iTunes device list, and the iPod says ejecting...ok to disconnect.
I am left with iTunes open, and thinking it is connected to the iPod, and an iPod which is disconnected from it's iTunes Library.
If I try the sync button on iTunes it say synchronising for a little while, but doesn't update any files.
The upshot is that I can no longer add or remove anything from the iPod. Although all the original data is still there, and the iPod plays fine.
I have tried rebooting the PC, restarting the iPod, re-installing iTunes, and restoring the iPod factory settings, but I still have the same problem.
Please help!

if you get a solution to this problem, I have identical troubles on my hp running vista and outlook 07 on both my classic 80 gig and nano 16gig

Ipod classic 160 sync problem

So a couple of days ago my iPod classic was operating erratically and I read a few posts and decided to do a restore. After a long time trying I managed to get it to do a full reformat. I haven't been able to get it to sync since. I have tried what seems every suggestion on here. I can see it in device manager no problem, it says that its connected on the iPod itself, It does show up in iTunes if I remove and plug it back in but only for a split second (it looks like a small window appears below the icon) and then it disappears again. If I perform a DFU restore it goes through restoring the device through iTunes again (so it is possible it can be recognized) but when it gets to the point where it tells me it will sync upon reboot - the icon for the iPod flashes up in iTunes, and then disappears again as above. I have also tried to do the HDsmart data and this works, details as below:
Retracts:18
Reallocs:0
Pending sectors:0
Poweron hours : 167
Start/stops: 69680
Temp current : 31°C
Temp min: 53°C
temp max: 248°C
I know the max is high but I think its a bum reading. It was operating mostly fine before apart from having to reboot using the Menu/select button every week or so...
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi turingtest2,
Thank you for the info, with formatting my iPod I managed to connect it to iTunes again.
However..in the page you linked to there is a section about how transferring large amounts of data can dump your library. That seems to be the problem in this case. It won't even allow me to transfer more than 2 gigabytes of music per sync, if I go higher it will dump everything again. Having over >60 GB of music in my library, this is disastrous to say the least.
Do you think that there is any other solution besides the method you mentioned involving Smart Playlists?

IPod Classic Calendar Sync Problem

I have an 80 gig iPod classic, and it works perfectly fine except for the calendar sync function. I really want to get my Outlook calendar on my iPod, and for some reason whenever I sync it, it says it is syncing my calendars and takes a long time. Then I check my calendar on my iPod and the calendar is empty. I've made sure that the box is checked for it to sync calendars from Outlook, and I've even cleared Outlook plug-ins, leaving only iTunes and my security plug-in. I have also tried syncing it after doing these things multiple times and the same thing happens.
How can I get my Outlook calendar onto my iPod classic?

doesn't work for me with classic 120, vista and outlook 2007.
Looks like it needs a fix and will have to wait for apple to sort it.

HT1386 I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

TS1425 I cannot eject my ipod classic after sync with i-tunes on my pc. It states some of the files are being used by other applications. What does this mean? How can I get it to eject?

I cannot eject my new ipod classic after sync with i-tunes on my pc due, it states, to open files being used by another application. What does this mean? How can I get my ipod to eject?

If it's a one-time "glitch," you can try restarting your computer with the iPod still connected. Try ejecting again after the restart.
If the problem recurs, you may have a process running (other than iTunes) that is accessing the iPod's storage. When connected, the iPod's "disk" is like other mounted volumes. This process may be some type of utility that continously monitors your mounted volumes for security reasons, such as to prevent access by malware.
If you know of such a program that you have running in the background, there may be a setting to exclude your iPod's disk.

IPOD Classic - Will sync, Won't charge

My 80gig Ipod Classic will sync with my computer, but won't charge during or after the sync. It used to work.
I have Windows Vista and the most recent version of itunes, etc.
Thanks,
Megan

Either that, or try another USB port. Bear in mind that your iPod will only charge when plugged into a high power USB port, though it will sync when plugged into high or low power ports.

I have an iPod classic that syncs my entire library, I'd like to buy a smaller iPod, a nano maybe for the gym. Can I use the same library or do I need to set up a new library for the 2nd iPod? Is that possible? I mean for one to have 2 iTune librarys?

In other words, no. You don't need another iTunes Library for your new iPod
Another iTunes Library, that's only if someone elses music is mixed in with yours and you want to create another Windows user account with their music in it.
The iTunes Library is the master vault containing all your content, from there you create playlists or smart playlists specially tailored for the smaller iPod's storage requirements.
For instance if the iPod can hold only 2,000 songs, then you create a smart playlist based upon those rules/limitation. Plus what type of music you like.
You have a incredible degree of control with smart playlists, they update automatically so you only set the conditions for what goes into them. Including content from other created playlists and smart playlists.
Then, when you hook up the smaller iPod, it has it's own sync options, "all of your music and playlists" or "only select playlists" So you use the second option to select just the smart playlist you tailored for the new iPod.
When you hook up the iPod Classic, only it's sync options are used, not the new iPod ones.
I hope I explained it better this time.

This is the iPod touch forum. I will request that you post be moved to the iPod Classic forum.

My iPod Classic is synced with an old iTunes account. How can I transfer this music to my new iTunes account?

My iPod Classic is synced with an old iTunes account. How can I transfer this music to my new iTunes account?

If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
