IPod Touch Compatibility with iPod Classic accessories

Hi,
I'm considering buying an iTouch. I currently own an iPod classic and have the car charger/player, camera connector and wall charger. Is the iPod Touch compatible with these items?

if you have an iTrip with the power supply for the car, i can most assuredly confirm they do work, i had an ipod 5th gen, the first video and i just got the touch, the wall charger should also work b/c it is the same size as the itrip, as for camera, i have no clue, hope this helps

Problems in compatibility of iPod radio remote with iPod classic 160 GB

Hi all,
I have just bought a iPod classic 160 GB and want to buy a iPod radio remote as well. However, after I have done my research, I find the radio remote is not compatible with iPod classic perfectly…
Do you think it is a good idea for me to wait a new radio remote (maybe) or later Apple will release update?
Thanks

I use my Radio Remote with a Classic; it does everything that it had with my 5G-Video EXCEPT it will not allow me to set radio stations, either with the Radio Remote's control or the iPod's control.
I have spoken with an iPod specialist (Apple Care) and according to him Apple has acknowleged less than 100% compatibility/functionality with the Radio Remote and the Classics. One of the reasons, he stated, was that several 5G-Video iPods were "getting fried" when the Remote was not fully connected to the docking-port. So Apple has decided to reengineer the port [for better a connection, I gather]. What puzzles me the most about the new generation of iPods is why they were rolled out without warning customers that their Car-Charger, Video Player, dock, AV Cable, or APPLE'S OWN Remote will not play nice with each other!
This go around, it's find out the hard way.

Newest version of universal dock appears to be incompatible with my ipod Classic 120 gb. Remote does nothing

I purchased from Apple, a new universal dock with remote (MC746LL/A) along with the proper dock adapter for my ipod Classic 120. According to Apple the dock works with any ipod with a dock and adapter.. The remote does absolutely nothing despite a brand new battery. The only reason I purchased this pricey accessory was to have an additional ipod station with a remote. I could have saved a ton of money if I didn't care about a sensor on front of the unit. Any thoughts.

You are in exactly the same boat as I. I have the same problem. I posted a query on this forum too but no help came forth. Looks like Apple could be blocking replies to iPod Classic issues since it withdrew the product. Amazing company. But incase anyone can still access this query, please help. It will help two customers of Apple if not more.
Awaiting help !!

Exercising/ Running Marathon with Ipod Classic

Hi there and sorry in advance if this is a tired and already answered question. But I looked and could not find a similar topic.
I run extensively 5 mile a day, even in winters. And workout extensively too, plyometrics, etc. And I am wanting to buy a new ipod. Music is my life and I have a very enormous collection of music.
Here are the questions
1) The max capacity available is with the ipod classic 120 GB. Which is an excellent choice for me. BUT is it a good choice for someone like me who is going to be running around with it and exposing it to jerks and bumps and a lot of movement during play?
2) Is the ipod touch a better option (64GB) if I were to use it extensively while running, gyming etc? I understand that everyone will give the usual stuff about flash based memory Vs hard disc (in case of classic). But is that really the case or are there Ipod classic owners who subject it to a lot of abuse and have never reported problems?
I only ask because the difference in terms of money for Ipod 120 GB classic Vs the new ipod touch 64 GB is quite a lot.
Your help and direction to further articles/ research would really help me. I greatly appreciate you taking the time for reading this and choosing to answer.
Thank you

is the obvious answer, but I think that if you are going to be using it for this then the classic is too big a risk to take.
From my experience, hard disks can sometimes take quite a bit of bashing about, but nothing like flash based memory does. It seems very hit and miss, some people manage to get away with it for quite a long time, but if you use a classic for this purpose then there is a big risk of it falling over after a very short amount of time.
Basically, if you can take the financial risk of needing to replace it every six months then go for it if the extra capacity is important, but if a damaged ipod will result in no music at all for a while then it's got to be flash.

Ios 7 not compatible with Ipod classic

Ever since Itunes updated to IOS7 my Ipod classic that has been completely reliable for about four years is now unable to sync. I get a wide variety of responces from itunes while trying. It says the disc is not located, compatable, or sometimes it pretends to sync but only about 20 songs out of my 8,000+ songs were synced. I've tried everything from restoring (about 8 times total), trying to fix any bugs through my windows7 on the device, and only attempting to put on certain playlists- only to have the same results.
I do hope that the Apple people know of this problem and are trying to resolve it because I would be very irritated to find that I can no longer use my Ipod. (its 160 gig)
-If you know of anything that could help, I would greatly appreciate it.

iOS has nothing to do with the iPod Classic, it is used on the iPod Touch and iPhone.
Your Classic uses firmware (the operating system) 1.1.2. Nothing whatsoever to do with iOS.
I suggest you have a browse through the Classic discussions and iTunes discussions for anything concerning problems with iPod Classic syncing, as I have noticed a few posts on that topic. I have not experienced any issues myself with my iPod Classic, running 1.1.2 for PC.
Since there has been no update to the iPod Classic's firmware (operating system) for quite a while, the problems that I have noticed in the discussions, that mention partial Playlist syncing, additional songs not being synced etc. are more likely to be associated with updates to iTunes, which is now on version 11.1.38.

Ipod Classic 120 opens iTunes, is in My Computer, but NOT in iTunes

When I plug my iPod Classic 120 into the PC it opens iTunes automatically. It shows as an iPod in My Computer, BUT doesn't show in iTunes.
It doesn't show the Syncing Circle when I plug it in.
The screen just changes to 'Connected'
I also get a Caution bubble in the taskbar
Here is the other photo
I followed all the recommended options I saw posted including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.
It also locks up when I eject, and freezes up the PC as well.Stays on 'OK to Disconnect' for a while, not the way it always was.
Its getting to be a real pain!
Any help??

Did you put it on your ipod?

I have an ipod classic 120 gb. I had music on my ipod that I had gotten from other people's itunes libraries by changing my settings to manually sync my ipod. However, twice I have had my ipod plugged into my mac and it completely erased everything

I have an ipod classic 120 gb. I had it set up so that I manually sync and manage my music. Twice I have had my ipod plugged into my mac and it had erased everything on my ipod. All the music on my itunes was still in my library, but all the other music was lost. I understand that I need to go back to the other libraries I got that music from, but how do I make sure that my ipod doesn't keep syncing and erasing itself? Also, now every five minutes a message will pop up on my itunes saying that it cannot sync because of an unknown error and then it has the number 13014. I have no idea what that is about. Does anyone else go through this? How do I fix it?

Well the iPod is supposed to be synced from YOUR iTunes music library, if you used other means to put music on there then the iPod is going to sync to only what's on your itunes music library when you connect it.
You need to put the files into itunes.
Far as your other issues, sounds like the drive is dying.

used wrong charger with ipod classic, now it wont turn on, displays the low battery icon even though its connected to the wright adapter.
Can anyone help ?
please?

WHow long have you left it to charge? Have you tried resetting it after a short period of time to see if that can help jumpstart the charging process? To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

My ipod classic 120 wont respond and the screen is frozen

my ipod classic 120 wont respond and the screen is frozen

Hello Charles,
What happens if you try to do a hard reset? To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. This may or may not work the first time around so be sure to attempt this at least a minimum of three times.
If the iPod remains frozen, let the iPod's battery drain completely, but attempting to recharge the iPod.

IPod Classic 120 stuck

My iPod classic 120 is stuck in a reboot cycle and will not start. What should I do??

If all else fails to sort out the iPod, wait for the battery to drain down fully. When it does, wait for a further hour or so, to make sure it is fully drained.
Then you can plug it into power. At first, it will appear that nothing is happening, but it is and after about thirty minutes or so, the screen should light up. Hopefully, after it's fully re-charged, the iPod should work okay.
What happens?

Trouble with artwork on iPod Classic 120 gig

I know that in previous version of iTunes, the solution to corrupted artwork files has been to deselect the "include artwork" option (or something like that) in Music...however, the latest incarnation of iTunes doesn't allow for this. I've tried resetting, rebooting, etc. the iPod three times.
Help, anyone? Thanks...appreciate it a lot.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
It seems that you made a wrong turn on the main page of Apple Discussions & ended up in the forum dedicated to the word processing/page layout application, Pages. I think you'll get the best response to your questions in one of the forums in the iPod Classic category.

Windows 7 incompatibility with IPod Classic

My Computer runs Windows 7 Ultimate, SP1, but my IPod Classics, in checking compatibility, requires me to open Windows XP, SP2. After I changed the setting in I-Tunes re system to check on, now ITunes will not open. I purchased the IPod so I could unload my music files from my laptop to free disc space but the IPod no longer recognizes any of the music I converted to I-Tunes

Perfect, thank you.
That one's got a P55 chipset, and they've been cranky with iPod and iPhone connections on Windows 7 systems.
Are you up to date on your BIOS? (A number of folks with Gigabyte motherboards have been able to get past the P55 issues with BIOS updates.)
Alternatively, you could try the BIOS configuration change described in the following post. (Unfortunately, not all BIOSes are user-configurable in this way.)

Windows logo testing to verify compatibility with 80GB Classic Problem

Hi All,
I purchased my son a 80GB Classic for christmas and it has been great. Then out of the blue when he hooked it up to his computer two weeks ago to purchase new music the computer would not recognize it. I have tried the five R's as recommended and updated all his programs as suggested. Any advice would be Greatly appreciated. This is the message we get when we plug the ipod into the usb " The software you are installing for hardware has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows XP." Thank you!

Since I'm on a Mac, I can't offer a whole lot of help. I did find this article on the Microsoft website which may be helpful.
