Ipod classic not allowing access to to music or pod casts - shows zero files in music and pod cast but used space shows 3/4 full it is recognized by itunes sometimes on my pc but unable to view content

ipod classic shows disk 3/4 full  but when i look in the folders  it shows zero for music and zero for podscasts. i can not access these folders on the ipod or when it does connect to my windows computer thru itunes.  it does not connect 90% of the time now.  i let it check the disk when it was connected to my pc which did not good  -  any other ideas?  other than restore?

Your iPod filesystem is corrupted, so your music and podcastr is in the Others, this is most likely caused by a slow USB connection, which timeout during sync.
Try the Hard Reset first
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.
Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
Then do the iPod Disk Diagnostic, in this earlier post by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but help you decide if your iPod is dying and causing the timeouts.
Have a nice day!

    I am not exactly sure what you mean by "authorised", but I am experiencing a similar problem...or the same, in that Apple TV keeps telling me to enable home sharing in my MacBook Pro. It does not seem to recognize that home sharing is already enabled on my Laptop.
    Is home sharing and "authorised" one in the same? It used to work just fine before these recent Apple TV updates.

    I'd like to know what font (and font size) the iPod classic "Notes" module uses.

    It looks like Helvetica 8 but I'm not sure. The font used in the Table of contents is much more readable, so it should be possible to increase the font size in the notes. I'll ask Apple… I'm joking.

    Hello,
    The cord might be the case, but first, try these suggestions:
    Try putting your iPod into disk mode, then try connecting it to your computer again...
    <a href="How to put your iPod into disk mode</a>
    Do you have a wall charger? If so, then try connecting your iPod to that, and does it charge, or not?
    Have you checked this link out?:

  • I bought an album on my iPhone and it never transferred to my iTunes account. It has disappeared now and I'm not allowed to buy it again. How can I find my missing music album or have the option to purchase it again?

    I bought an album on my iPhone and it never transferred to my iTunes account. It has disappeared now and I'm not allowed to buy it again. How can I find my missing music album or have the option to purchase it again?

    Hello bubblegirl2,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your purchased album.
    First, I recommend trying to download the album from you list of past purchases.  Use the steps in the section titled "Download previous purchases on Mac or PC > iTunes Store" in the following article:
    Download past purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    If you have tried those steps and still do not see the album, it may be that the album is hidden.  Follow the steps below in iTunes on your computer to check if it is hidden and unhide it:
    To unhide your purchases
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    If you're not already signed in, choose Store > Sign in.
    Choose Store > View My Account. (You may be asked to enter your password again).
    On your Account Information summary, scroll down to the "iTunes in the Cloud" section and click Manage.
    Choose a content type by clicking Music, TV shows, Apps, or Books from the top.
    Click the Unhide button next to the item you would like to restore.
    Note: If the item you are unhiding is not already downloaded on your computer locally, it will begin downloading automatically.

  • I'm not allowed access to my own files...

    Hello all,
    Just talked to an Adobe person on the Chat, but he couldn't help me, he told me to get someone on the phone... on the phone, they told me they couldn't help me because my product was too old... they told me to come here and ask for help... now I just hope you guys aren't going to tell me you can't help me, because of some other sort of reason!
    Here's my problem:
    For a few years now, I use a CS2 for work, both on my office-computer and on my home computer. 
    Ever since I installed it, on one of the computers the updates of Adobe Acrobat keep popping up, but only get halfway. They start installing, announcing themselves: “Adobe is now installing Acrobat 7.1…” and suddenly, it stops and says: “Windows finds it impossible
    to write onto the file  C:\Program files\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\Activex\AcroIEhelper.dll.  Check if you have access to this file”.
    It gives me the choice between “resume, ignore, or abort”.  If I choose resume or ignore, the installation goes on till the end and I am asked to reboot. As if everything has gone well.
    But it hasn’t.  For when I do, after the computer’s started up again, instead of having an updated Acrobat, the update starts all over again:
    “now installing Acrobat 7.1…” until the reboot, the same way again, and so ad infitum.
    After a few times, I actually went checking in my computer for this location, to see what was wrong with this file on which Windows seemed to have so much trouble “writing onto”. I searched for the file called AcroIEhelper.dll, but found it wasn’t there…  No wonder they couldn’t write anything on it, I thought!
    I copied the file from my disk in the CS-box, and placed it exactly on the location it was supposed to be; at least, that’s what I tried to do,
    but soon as I did, a box appeared saying: “You are not allowed to execute this transaction”    (or something of the sort – I’m translating from
    Dutch here).  No matter howmany times I try, it always stops me, blocking my access.
    It never says why, however.
    So, the update is never really finished, I know that now, it's for lack of this blasted file. But I'm never allowed to put it where it belongs. 
    Ever since, each day when switching on my computer, the first thing I have to do is to stop this Adobe Acrobat update, which
    stubbornly -and uselessly- starts installing, before I can start working.  Every single day, and I am sick of it! 
    The computer it happens on is the second one I installed the CS on, it's a Vista.  I don't think that's the problem, though.  Would it?
    I was assured I could install my CS on 3 systems, this was the second. The one in my office is an XP Pro.
    Anybody can give me the answer to the refusal of this file? Why am I not allowed access to the files in my own computer?  And is there a
    way to MAKE the thing give me access?
    Tanks for any help...

    Thanks, Markerline. I couldn't reply this weekend, since I had omitted to send my login-password on this forum to my home-computer.  It's at home I'm having the problem: over here at work, nothing bothers asking me if I want to be updated.  (I don't even know whether I'm getting updated at all; I'm not allowed to experiment much whith this one, since I'm in the National network...
    I think I've tried it most of the times from an ampty desktop. Nothing to do with Adobe nor anything else working yet.  After all, the update is the first thing that pops up after startup; I have to abort it before I can start doing anything.
    I'll try it again, after reading the articles you write about. I might find the answer if I learn more of what this IEhelperthingy is all about.  It's really small, a few 5 MB or so; but it seems to be important enough to cause trouble.
    If I never manage to force-squeeze it into the Adobe file, my only hope is to get rid of these eternal useless attempts to update to Acrobat 7.1.  I'd be happy to go on working with number 6 or whatever I have right now, as long as I'm not constantly pestered by a never-ending update.  
    My old computer never told me I wasn't allowed to do what I wanted to it, the way this one does. I find it annoying! It makes me feel like it takes me for a fool....

  • Java daemon on boot: "This user is not allowed access to the window system right now."

    The daemon is located in /Library/LaunchDaemons/ and launches successfully on most occasions. However, it sometimes fails to start with this error:
    Nov 17 20:36:24 server.local java[28972]: This user is not allowed access to the window system right now.
    Nov 17 20:36:24 server com.apple.launchd[1] (net.java.server): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
    I have the server command running as a background daemon using its "nogui" option (the developers claim to have written it to not display a gui). However, it seems that somewhere along the line, Java is trying to display something. As the daemon is running before users log in, it gives this error. Once a user is logged in to the system, it runs fine; however, logging in a user to run the server is not an option. It needs to run on boot.
    Any ideas for how to solve this? I'm going to contact the developers to see if it may be something they can fix, but I want to be able to force the issue in case the problem ever occurs in the future.

    Irrespective of any claims by the developer, this certainly appears to be a test case that shows that the tool is not working as expected, and that the application has a bug.  This test case would be better if there was some evidence around why only some of the startups fail, but in general this will involve what's been suggested earlier:  "Contact the application developer."  
    As some general background on what's involved, see daemons and agents and related; processes that are not allowed to connect to the GUI for reasons of security.
    I'd also suggest testing your DNS, as seeing "server.local" can imply local DNS configuration errors.   Launch Terminal.app  from Applications > Utilities and issue the following harmless diagnostic command and see if it reports no changes, or if it detects network or DNS errors:
    sudo changeip -checkhostname
    If this is OS X Server and a NAT'd network, you do not want to reference any DNS servers located off of your NAT'd network.
    Why DNS?  Because DNS errors can cause only some operations to fail, particularly if there's more than one DNS server selected (and where some subset of the DNS servers are malfunctioning or misconfigured).
