IPod classic in a BMW 3 series (E92) does not recharge

I used to have an iPod nano (G1) in my BMW 3 series (E92) with the AUX and USB Connector.
With the Nano the battery was fully charged at all times.
When I connect my iPod classic (80 GB), the iPod is not charged. As a matter of fact after I used it in the car for a day, the battery would be fully discharged. Only after I recharged the Classic it could be used in the car again.
Any idea what could be the problem?

Thanks for the information. I was looking for a BMW-thread, but could not find one.
Hope Apple will fix the problem any time soon. I habe 35 GB of music and the Nano will only take 4GB - very sad.
Reading the posts in the other thread makes it clear that this is an Apple-problem, not BMW.
I mean I bought the Classic just to leave him in my car most of the times. Now I have such a fine car and annot listen to my favorite music - very,very sad indeed...

IPod Classic - AutoSync stops copying music midway, but does not freeze.

I have a brand new 160 GB Classic. When I connect it to my Powerbook, it begins the normal process of auto-syncing my library. I have a total of just over 5000 songs; When it gets to about 3200, it stops, and says Sync is complete. I press "Sync" again, and it starts where it left off, but then stops again at around 4800 songs. I've gone thru this several times, and am now 4 songs away from getting a "complete" sync (where my entire library will finally be copied onto my iPod).
What's causing the iPod to think that it's already copied everything when there's still more stuff it needs to copy?

Dandy.
Well, for anyone looking at this, I may have figured it out. I had a total of 5366 songs in iTunes; after numerous clicks of the "Sync" button, I was able to get 5365 of them on to the iPod. However, even in Manual mode, I was not able to get the one remaining song to transfer. It took me a good while, but I tracked down which song it was. For whatever reason, it would not copy, even though it was a song ripped from one of my own CD's, and it played fine on my Powerbook and my 4th Gen iPod. I deleted the song, re-ripped it, and it transferred fine. My assumption is that iTunes stopped transferring music once it came to this track in the library.
If that doesn't sound like the case, someone please reply.

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?

IPod Classic 160 MAC to PC Windows 7 does not happen

Hi everyone. I would really appreciate your input on this.
I can find similar, but not exact cases like mine.
I've owned a first generation 160 GB iPod Touch for two years now.
I have always used it on a Mac.
I sold it over the internet and the new owner has a PC running Windows 7 with up-to-date iTunes.
When we connect the iPod to the PC, *it won't recognize it (not even as an external hard drive), it also won't appear (obviously) in the iTunes connected devices panel.*
*Therefore, there is no way to ask the Windows iTunes to change the iPod to PC format.*
(The iPod has the latest Mac firmware version 1.1.2).
Any suggestions???

My first guess here would be that he needs to uninstall and reinstall his iTunes and device manager setup. Here is a link to the apple article on this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
When he plugs it into a windows system, it should give him a task bar dialog that it has found a new device, but then get more specific and tell him it is an iPod. Then give him the usual ready for use notice.
Don't have the iPod connected while reinstalling. Wait for the system to boot up and then connect the iPod. Do not connect it through a USB hub. Connect it directly to a USB port on the back of the computer.
Hope that helps,

i just dowloaded an il divo album. when it was placed on my ipod classic it came in as 8 different songs; not listed as 1 album with 8 songs. this has happened before with other purchases. Why? How can I insure an entire album is saved as an entire album and not individual songs. And now how can I move individual songs to the album they belong in?

I seem to have fixed it by putting <div class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

HT1386 160 gb iPod Classic says it must use iTunes 9 or later. 120 gb iPod Classic (wifes) is on 8.0 and doing fine. If I install iTunes 9, will both iPods be o.k.? Will any music be lost? THANKS

You can either burn it to a CD or DVD from within iTunes, or back up the entire iTunes library as you would any other folder.

TS4062 I can't sync music on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. Suggestions?

I can't sync music already on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. I've read through all the Help tutorials but none of them say what to do if the sync options don't pop up when you highlight the device. I've already spent way too much time trying to figure this out and it's driving me crazy! Thanks for any help you can offer.

This is correct. It will not show in finder. It is not an external storage device.
The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases. Open itunes connect ipod, do not sync, click File>Transfer Purchases

HT1384 My ipod nano 3rd generation, when connected by usb, does not show up in itunes, does not show up on my computer, does not seem to charge by the wall charger. It just has a black screen. Any ideas for me?

My ipod nano 3rd generation, when connected by usb, does not show up in itunes, does not show up on my computer, does not seem to charge by the wall charger. It just has a black screen. Any ideas for me?
I've run diagnostics. Can't find device. I've tried resetting. The toggle has been turned on and off.

Cable works fine on my other iPod. Reset by pressing menu and center button together for 6-10 seconds. Left it to charge for many hours. Started acting up while running. Suddenly the music stopped playing but my Nike + was still working for the rest of my run. Took it straight it home and plugged it in to the wall to recharge since the battery was fairly low. Looked like it recharged ok but then screen went blank and now does it not show up on iTunes, does not seem to recharge by the wall charger (apple wall charger plugged into a surge protector in India). I have turned the hold switch off and on many times.
Sounds like a repair issue, which is not easy to do in India :(

Payment Wizard - Series period does not match current period

Hi All,
I've a problem during creation of Incoming Payment through Payment Wizard.
0 payments were added at the end of creation Incoming Payments--> Bill of Exchange using Payment Wizard.
In Non-Included Transactions I can read: series period does not match current period
I've examinated the incaming payment's numbering series and the relate series to document and everything seems ok, so I don't understand the reason of error.
If I try to add the same Incoming payment> Bill of exchange manually in Banking>Incoming Paymenti-->Incoming Payment (without Payment Wizard) it works perfectly!!!
Can you help me?
Simona

Hi Simona,
In step 2 of the Payment Wizard, please check that you have selected the correct series for Incoming Payment at the bottom of the screen.
Hope it helps,

Enprise JC error: series period does not match current period

I want to make create invoice from Enprise Job Costing Contract. There are some lines in Contract Detail but I want to process only two of them. I put the amount in Invoice Now, Post Date, and Invoice Due Date.
The invoice is supposed to be from previous posting period (the previous month/year) so I search the correct series number in Invoice No. drop-down list in the Job Costing Contract form. But the available options are only manual and serial number of current period. If I click Process Invoice Now button, I get error message: Error creating invoice: series period does not match current period
I tried to change the settings from Administration > System Initialization > Document Numbering to set the numbering series to previous period but so far nothing changed, and I still can not create invoice.
I currently use SAP B1 8.8 PL 13 and Enprise Job Costing 8.8 (version 8.80.101)
Anybody can help me? Thank you in advance for any good advice.

Hi Sandy,
your SAP support partner will be able to register a ticket on the Enprise Support Portal to have this investigated for you, Enprise do not answer questions directly from this forum.
Having said that... it sounds as though the invoice numbering series you are trying to use is only valid for a specific year. Did you make sure you also changed the Invoice Date (top right side of screen) to be in the same year?
kind regards,
Cathy

You can try contacting apple customer service http://www.apple.com/contact but usually all app purchases are final and not refundable.

How can you start up your ipod if holding the hold and home button does not work?

Remi,
How long did you hold these buttons for? Did you try more than once? Have you tried letting it charge for a bit and trying again?
