IPod Dock freezes

Hi.
I just bought an iPod Dock - but I have one pretty major problem. It freezes almost everytime I use it ? When I plug in the usb cable directly to the iPod it works perfectly with the iTunes it freezes. Can someone please help me?

Try plugging the cable from the dock directly into your computer's USB port and not into a hub. This solved my problem.

  • 3rg gen ipod dock connector not working with new imac on leopard 10.5.1

    Recently found that my 3rd gen ipod is not working properly when i connect it using its dock. itunes just freezes and comes out with some "disk insertion error". however, when i don't use the dock and connect the ipod to the imac directly using its own firewire cable, everything is ok and working properly.
    it seems to be the ipod dock that is the problem. but am wondering why wouldn't it work? any ideas? I'd still like to be able to use the ipod dock...
    thanks.

    ipodaid.page.tl go there, he got my iPod fixed.

  • IPod Dock Won't Charge iPod Classic 3rd Gen

    Hi,
    I have an iPod Classic 3rd generation that is running Version 2.3 with the Capacity of 13.9 GB.
    Model: M946OCH
    It looks like this:
    http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/profilemojo_data/5/8/5/1/585103/pics/_c297123_image0.png
    The problem: this iPod Classic will not charge on ANY iPod Dock. No matter what brand or type, as long as it is the standard iPod Dock, it will not charge at all. It also has trouble playing songs and stops midway.
    I have an iPod Touch 4th Gen and it works fine on the same dock.
    Is there anything I can try to fix this problem for my iPod Classic? I tried connecting it to iTunes, restored it and updated it to the latest firmware.
    Please try and solve this problem.

    Playing songs doesn't work either. The first song will play for 30 so seconds then will stop and the iPod will freeze until I unplug it.
    Is there any way to work around this problem. Maybe some type of an adapter that the iPod sits on, and the adapter then sits on the dock so that it can transmit everything properly. I do not believe that the only solution is just to buy an older dock.

  • S-video output does not work with iOS5.1.1 via ipod dock

    After upgradig my Touch to iOS5.1.1 I cannot see video etc. on my TV via my Ipod Dock.
    It was working fine before the upgrade.
    The ipod is telling me, that it's connected to the TV, but nothings appears on my TV.
    It was working fine before the upgrade.
    I have tried to contact Apple Support but I have not succeded finding out how to contact them about the bug.
    Anyone else experience same problem?
    Regards

    I have the same issue with my iHome iW1 AirPlay. After updating both my iPhone 3gs and ipad 3, it cannot use my iW1 with airplay. Also when I plug one of my iOs device to the iW1 I get the infamous "Charging is not supported with this accesory"....
    Anyone got a workaround?

  • My iPod touch 3rd generation won't play on my iPod dock when the alarm I set goes off. It plays normally and charges, but it won't work with the alarm. Could it be the iPod dock or my iPod?

    My iPod touch just recently started doing this: I plug it in to my Sony iPod dock/alarm clock/radio. It charges fine and plays music fine, but when I set the alarm for it to go off, it doesn't go off. I can see that the dock is indicating that the alarm is going off, but the iPod isn't playing music. Could it be my iPod or the dock?
    Also, there were 2 times when I plugged in my iPod to charge (once with a wall charger and once with the dock) and it said that it was fully charged. But it wasn't fully charged. I bought one of those iPod wall chargers from Target. It's not an Apple charger, but it is for iPods. Could it be that?
    I'm going to try to reset my iPod and see if that helps any.

    I have contacted apple support and Bose support.  When I have heard back will post for everyone.  I do encourage everyone to contact both companies until we get an answer to hopefully solve this issue.  The more people who contact them about the issue, maybe the better chance they will help fix the issue.

  • ITunes 7.1 and iPod dock problems

    Apparently there are cases of iTunes 7.1 doing some widespread and different things, not all entirely related. In many cases the problems can be fixed if you disconnect your iPod dock, if you have one. I had my Shuffle dock (and iPod) plugged in and iTunes just wouldn't start. I was working wirelessly tonight and just thought I would try again and it opened really fast. Then I found several threads here about this sort of thing. So if you are having problems with this upgrade as I have try unplugging your iPod first then launch iTunes.

    You have to restore back (or uninstall/resinstall) to a prior version of iTunes. 7.0.2 works fine.

  • IPod (dock connector) stuck in disk mode

    i just replaced the HD on my iPod(dock connector)and now it stuck on disk mode. i tried to reset but it showed a folder with an exclaimation point and went back to disk mode flashing the "do not" symbol and "do not disconnect". it don't show up on my PC or my iTunes. HELP!

    That's super odd. It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive.  I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread.  He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

  • Is there a way to hookup shuffle to standard iPod dock connector?

    I just got a brand new shuffle, looks real sharp and easy to use, it's my first one since I sold my 1st gen iPod Touch years ago. At that time, I hooked up an adapter (using standard dock connector) to my car's stereo system, through the back of it (not through an option for the car's stereo). So I have a cable (standard iPod dock connector) in my car to hook up to an iPod; I had to control the songs from the iPod itself and usually just kept it on shuffle, and set the stereo to a certain mode for it to be played through the speakers. I wasn't aware until my shuffle came that the dock connector just uses the same 3.5mm jack as the headphones. Is there an adapter to use a standard dock connector for hooking the shuffle to the various iPod accessories (boom boxes/stereos) and therefore, my car's stereo?

    Are you sure the three-way power switch is set to shuffle?  The middle position is play-in-order, so the shuffle plays the list in the same playlist order (or alphabetical order if using the All Songs list).
    If the power switch is in the shuffle position, to re-shuffle the list, move it to the middle position and them move it back to the shuffle position.

  • Ipod Nano 3rd Gen in Fatman Ipod dock is not recognized by TV via AV

    Our older model Ipod (classic) 30Gb in the dock is recognized by the TV. Settings of Nano are correct. Normally the Fatman Ipod dock is compatible with the Nano 3rd Gen, I first checked their website, so.
    WhenI put the Nano in a Denon dock, the TV recognizes it though.
    Soft reset of Nano was done but with no effect.
    I thank the person(s) who can give me a valuable answer.

    I have the same problem. My Iphone 4s works fine when docked to PC. PC won't recognize my 3rd Gen Nano. Same goes for my Work PC. They don't recognize it nor will plugging it in to a PC charge it. I have to plug it into wall socket to charge.
    I have tried resetting, I have tried downloading newest Itunes.
    Must be the Nano itself if it doesn't get recognized by mutliple PCs?
    I haven't used the Nano for probably 2 months. Previously it worked fine...
    One thing, when docked to my laptop during a reboot/startup, it intially starts to charge the Nano, but once setup is finished it doesn't recognize it any longer...

  • My iPod will charge in the computer but not my iPod dock, my sisters iPod dock or the wall charger. My sisters iPod will charge in all and we both have the same sofware and generation. Why won't mine charge?

    My Ipod will charge in the computer but noy my iPod dock, my sisters iPod dock or the wall charger. My sisters iPod will charge in all and we both have the same software and generation. Why won't mine charge?

    Look the dock connector on your iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corred contacts, foreign material and cracked/broken plastic.
    Try:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears..
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod

  • IPOD is freezing up my computer

  • Ipod touch, Freezing while syncing.

    everytime i connect my ipod it syncs my music and pictures fine, but when it starts to sync my apps it syncs about 3 apps. Then my ipod freezes while syncing, forcing me to restore my ipod from recovery mode. When i say it freezes, i mean that my ipod has the "Sync In Progress" screen, with the battery in the center, and on the bottom of the screen the "Slide To Cancel Sync" on the slider. normaly the slider is always flashing highlighting a few letters at a time, across the screen, saying "Slide To Cancel" When it freezes the slider stops flashing/scrolling and then a little spinning wheel starts to spin in the center of my ipod, on the battery logo. After about, 30 seconds the wheel stops spinning, my itunes freezes up, and my iPod touch freezes up. as soon as i disconect my frozen ipod, my itunes works again. then my ipod is stuck on the frozen "sync in progress" screen. i then have to do the long recovery/restore. Then i decided change my settings from automatic syncing to selecting what i sync. I synced my music, fine. I synced my Pictures, fine. i then decided to sync one app at a time. I first synced solitaire, fine. Then i synced sextuple, fine. Then i synced Super Monkey Ball, my ipod froze!!! So I thought that mabye thats what was freezing up my ipod. then i had to restore my ipod, again. and start the whole process over again. I synced sextuple, fine. Then i Synced super monkey ball, again, and it synced fine. then i synced solitaire, worked fine. then i synced Cube Runner, My ipod froze again. on a totaly different app. i had to restore from recovery mode again, and i synced my music, pictures, super monkey ball, solitaire, and sextuple. then i decided, i will just keep my ipod away from a computer so it won't happen again. so i have 23 apps, and i only have three on my ipod. i really want to keep trying to fix this, but i don't want to have to do a restore, and then have to resync all of my music/pictures again. I really want to know whats up with my ipod. PLEASE, IF ANYONE CAN HELP, PLEASE DO SO. I WILL BE TOTALY GREATFUL. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

    I have been having the same problem too. i was sick and tired of it so the i brought it to an apple store and basically just told me stuff i already know, then 2 days later it started happening again. So i went to the apple store yet again, different guy same nonsense, "let me check your battery" "let me see if you memory has problems" "don't have too many applications running at the same time" on and on.. all that happened is that they restored it and said it should work... well clearly i go home to sync it, everything freezes, i go back they give me a new one... yet here i am 3 days later still having the problems even with a new ipod. i reinstalled itunes like 6 times, restored my ipod 4 times... so basically everyone is having the same problem... i guess we just gotta wait til apple realizes that they have a big problem to fix and does something for us
