Ipod Communications Error rec'd when connecting to Ipod port in Scion Xb

I recently purchased an Ipod Nano and a Scion Xb. The Scion has an Ipod port for easy connection. However, when I connect my Ipod Nano to the port/cable, I get an error message. "Ipod Communication Error" Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem?

I have a Scion xB 2006 with the Pioneer iPod control and an iPod Photo 30GB. Which was working fine for about 3 weeks and now it will play a few tunes and then freeze. I've also run into songs playing but with no sound on iPod. I've tried rebooting the iPod, I've tried to restore/update, reload the music and settings on the iPod with no luck. After the freeze the setting stay stuck to the Scion logo on the iPod.
I suspect Pioneer puts a little bit of code out on the iPod disk or firmware to get it to work with the Steering Wheel controls as well as putting out its own logo and messages on the iPod display itself. Support for the iPod podcast menu seems non-existent as well. It would be nice if there was a way to get the iPod back to Factory Settings. I suspect a problem with the manufacturer Pioneer. But I'll go complain to my dealer first!

  • IPod does not show up when connected to USB port; why?

    My grandson has an iPod Shuffle.
    Working with iTunes6, I connected the iPod to the USB port becasuse we wanted to get a print-out of the 75 songs there.
    It did not show up in iTunes listing; why??
    We know the songs are there; they can be played.
    The iPod was identified back in February as "Valentino" on a different computer; I wish I had that machine because "Valentino" showed up on it.
    BTW, I have now up-graded to iTunes7 but the iPod is not here to try it out.

    A whole list!! Such as?
    Besides, after reading the emails about iTunes7, I'm in no hurry to try anything right now.
    I'll wait until iTunes7 gets stable.
    If iTunes7 were to wipe out my ten year old grandson's 75 songs (as apparently it is very capable of doing) from his iPod, Apple can forget about him as a customer for a long, long, long time.

  • When connecting my ipod nano (5 gen) I get an error messege saying that it was recognized but not properly. Ive tried everything the support site says and it still not working. What do I do now?

    When connecting my ipod nano (5th gen) I get an error messege saying that it was recognized but not propperly. I treid everything that the support site said to do but it still not working. What do I do no?

    This came from another thread, but worked for me.  Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62.  Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update).  Reboot, and reinstall iTunes.  It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano.  Good luck.

  • Sony Xplod (CDX-GT820IP) Ipod Communication error

    Ipod Communication error, with my new Ipod nano exchange the radio and the ipod no change. However my old ipod wheel works fine, all feature accessible. I was very disappointed new should be better should it not. Dunno but as someone who know a little about technology. terrific video, nice music quality, however the main reason for buying the unit was to use in my vehicle, since i own another unit for gym use. I saw the post about an additional access. However that is a bit much since the already has the technology to make the older unit compatible and so she the newer on. (Charging not allowed with the connector) If you however star playing a song and the connect the unit the song will then play with car stereo control, and the AUX connection works fine however control is not possible with AUX not ipod related. This is a HUGE ISSUE...FLAW

    Not sure if this thread is really still going or not, but here's what I found on Sony's site for the CDX-GT820IP; which I recently got just after getting the 4G iPod Nano:
    http://esupport.sony.com/perl/news-item.pl?news_id=43&mdl=CDXGT820IP
    A lot of iPods are listed; but not the 4G nano... It's a shame. I have an older 2nd generation nano that works great with the deck... it takes less than two seconds for it to recognize that the iPod's been connected and start playing music. Problem is, the older nano is my husband's, so I have to convince him to let me load "my" music on his ipod... who'd have thought we'd be fighting over who got to use the old one!!
    Anyway, hope this helps...

  • Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    For both
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • PC sometimes crashes when connecting my iPod

    Hi,
    Apologies if this has been asked and answered before, I couldn't seem to find anything relating to my particular problem.
    On occassions when connecting my iPod to my PC at work I find that the PC powers down completely, without going through any shutdown procedure. I then have to switch off the mains supply, listen for what sounds like a slight discharge, switch on the mains supply and power up my PC. If the iPod is already cabled up there's no problem with powering up. This doesn't happen everytime I connect, just intermitently, but it's annoying as I don't have any problems with anything else in the USB ports I'm using. I've also tried different USB ports on the machine, and it doesn't seem to make any difference. The PSU for the PC is 380W, so that shouldn't be the problem.
    Fortunately the iPod doesn't get chance to go into 'Do Not Disconnect' mode, so I've never lost any of my content. But it's still annoying!
    Can anyone suggest what's causing this?
    Windows XP Professional SP2 and all the current updates
    iTunes 7.5.0.20
    30Gb 5th Gen iPod
    Thanks

    Yes, the list on my computer of what is in my iPod library is grey, not black font. I tried "manual" but it will not allow me to drag anything to the iPod. Not even newly purchased music.
    That certainly sounds like one of the Automatic syncing options has been engaged.
    ... quickly doublechecking, just in case. After selecting "Manually manage ..." in the device tab for the iPod in iTunes, did you click "Apply"?

  • IPOD 15 GB battery drains when connected to PC

    Battery only lasts an hour after connecting to the PC. Brand new ipod. Also, when I connect to PC the little arrows chasing eachother in the top left hand corner start and the do not disconnect shows up. This even when I have the options set to manually update ipod. Is this normal? I am only able to upload to ipod 250 songs before battery dies. Normal or not? Thanks for the help. Jeff

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You have a 3G iPod. If you are using USB to connect, then I would say it is perfectly normal since 3G iPods cannot charge via USB and therefore your battery will be depleted when you sync. If indeed you are using USB, I suggest you get an USB2/Firewire iPod cable and connect the iPod in this way: How to connect the iPod Dock Connector to FireWire and USB 2.0 Cable (You need the Firewire iPod charger which should be included with your iPod.).

  • IPod Classic 80 GB Freezes when connecting to Computer

    Hi.
    My iPod Classic 80 GB Freezes when connecting to my computer (Vista... yes... I know). I've got my iPod for over a year now and I've never had real trouble with it.
    When I plug it in (iTunes already running) my computer gives me the 'thumbthumb' noise because an USB thingamajib is connected to the computer. At this moment my iPod freezes and stays on. iTunes doesn't seem to find my pod. When I disconnect my iPod, it'll stay on (doesn't go energy safe mode) and stays frozen until the battery is empty. But by then, I've already lost my playing info (Which I really value).
    Pllllllease help me out her.

    Someone has finally found a solution to this problem and i decided that i would spread the word around ... so here are the steps:
    1) Quit iTunes.
    2) Delete iTunes from your Applications folder.
    3) Go to your ~/Music/iTunes folder. Delete or rename the "iTunes Library" file.
    4) Open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and look for the backup of your old pre-9 library; it should be dated at about the time you first ran iTunes 9. Copy it back out to the ~/Music/iTunes folder, and rename it to "iTunes Library".
    6) Go to <http://support.apple.com/downloads/iTunes8_21> and download iTunes 8.2.1. The page says it's for G3, but the Read Me file says it'll run on G4, G5, and Intel too. Open the diskimage and run the installer.
    You should now be able to run iTunes 8.2.1 again.
    And your iTunes will restore to before you upgraded and you won't lose anything.
    *If you download the iTunes file from the "support.apple" link, and you can't open it, go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/06/28/apple-itunes-8-2-and-quicktime-7-6-2-di rect-download-links/ and download "iTunes 8.2 for Windows: iTunesSetup.exe

    Similar problem here:
    When I'm playing songs with iTunes and connecting my 3G 20GB iPod, my computer will hang up completely - screen goes dark and I have to reset my PC.
    However, when my iTunes is "idle", i.e. not playing a song or doing anything else, connecting and syncing the iPod will work just fine.
    I'm using the newest (6.x) Version of iTunes on WinXP SP2 with a 3G iPod 20GB.
