How can i take off the volume limitation from my ipod classic?
apparently the ipods being sold in europe have a limitation of volume due to some european laws.
as long as i listen to my ipod over normal headphones the volume is ok, but i would like to connect it as well to my scala-rider (motorcycle interphone system) and even with the volume at maximum i can hardly hear the music. i didn't have this problem with my former mp3-player, this means that the problem cannot be from the headphone of the scalarider.
in the ipod-options (on itunes) i already marked the maximum volume for all my songs, but it is still not enough.
is there any way to get this limitation off?
i know that for the older ipods there was a programm called "GoPod" but it does not work on the newer items.
thanks for your help.Reset it: hold the Menu and center buttons down until it resets.
If that does not work you may just have to run the battery down. -
I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but the early generation IPods I have had all played music louder in my cars than the later version Nanos, IPhones, ITouches, etc. I know this because with my Gen 2 IPod Classic (wasn't called Classic then) I listened to my music at volume level 48 and it played as loud as I like it. With my IPhone, ITouches and Video Nanos, I turn it up to 58 and it's still not as loud as the Classic. And, yes, I have the sound limiter all the way up, and I have kept sound check settings cosntant. Were the early Classics known for reproducing louder sound vo
There is a Mac version of MP3Gain.

Can't reduce iPod Classic's volume
I have just bought my first iPod (classic model, 80GB) and I'm experiencing a lot of problems for adjusting it's volume. The minimum default volume seems to be set at a really loud level, so I can't reduce it or silence it at any time, it only lets me increase it even more. Does anybody know how can I solve this before my head explodes?
I have a problem kind of like this. I am able to lower the volume but it seems that after a certain point the volume bar will keep going down but the volume levels off. I can never get it to go completely silent like my previous ipods. So when I'm at work or in the library, it can be loud than I'd like it to be and I can't get it to drop any more.
My only suggestion is to leave feedback and hope something happens http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipod.html or return it because it sounds like your click wheel may have been faulty. -
IPod Classic 160GB audio still there even at zero volume
Hi there,
Unfortunately I haven't found any topic here that's dealing with my problem on the first gen 160GB iPod Classic. Yesterday I realized that there's something wrong with its volume control. Even when I shift down the volume to zero there's still audio hearable (no matter if it's an audiobook, music, a podcast or a video clip) there at a fairly decent volume level (not nearly close to the sound level of whispering, by far louder).
First I tried to do a Hardware Reset on the iPod but this didn't help me a bit - the problem is still there.
So, I put all my hopes in that forum - actually I prefer listening to my audio books on a really low volume but that's not really possible right now...
Greetings from Austria,
StefanSame here! Please Apple, fix this issue in the next update! This should be no problem I think!

How do I get the volume on my ipod classic to the same level for all songs? Some songs are a lot lower than others.
Coverflow in iTunes is sorted by Album Artist whereas coverflow on the iPod classic is sorted by Artist. Unfortunately, there is no way to set this on your iPod. This is such a fumble on Apple's part that I'm beginning to think they're becoming another Microsloth with buggy firmware and products.

Low Volume Ipod Classic 2009 from USA?
Hi,
I just purchased the new Ipod Classic in October in New York City at the Apple Store. Now, back at home in Switzerland, I loaded the Classic via Itunes. Now I have the feeling that the Classic has a much lower volume than my old 5.5G Ipod Video (from the USA, too. Without EU volume cut). Is this possible? Is the new classic more quiet than the older ones? Firmware problem? May I have the EU Version althoug I bought it in New York? Is there a way to figger out via serial number etc. if my classic is an US or an EU model?
Does anyone, who lives in the US, the same impression about the volume?
Note: both Ipods are filled with exactly the same files and "maximum volume" is set to max in both models.
Thanks a lot for some ideas.
GeroDoes anyone, who lives in the US, the same impression about the volume?
My 2009 160GB USA unit is very loud.
I think that your computer tells the iPod that you are in the EU and it locks in a lower volume.
In the EU the 'State' and not the individual controls the volume of YOUR music.
Talk about "over governed". I guess I'm lucky that the "sound Police" didn't confiscate my USA iPod on a recent trip to Europe.
Good Luck. -
Hi, Just bought an ipod classic 160gb and i notice that when I turn the volume down all the way, music is still heard, i.e. I cannot turn it down lower than a certain volume. Is there a fix for this? Thanks
I've got a feeling that's the way it is. I know that if I turn the volume down all the way, I can still hear the music very softly -- which is great for listening when I have a migraine!

My iPod Classic's volume won't go down all the way.
I listen to my iPod while going to sleep. Because the room is completely silent (and I suppose my hearing is sensitive) I like the volume very low for that. I've recently replace my very old iPod with a new iPod classic. On my old one I could turn the volume down until it was completely silent, but that doens't seem to happen on this one. The minimum volume on it is far louder than I'd like when a room is silent. I can't find any settings etc that would change it.
Is that volume normal on new iPods or does this mean something's wrong with it? Is there anything I could do to make it go any quieter?It seems that this is an issue with the newer iPod Classic models. I haven't seen a solution or "fix" for this issue unfortunately.

I connected my brand new iPod Classic 160 GB to my brand new Sony home entertainment system through the headphone jack (to the audio line in). The volume is ridiculously low. Can somebody help me out here?
Make sure the volume on the iPod is turned up fully, since this will affect what you hear through the stereo.
Make sure Volume Limit is set to full. (From Main Menu, Settings/Volume Limit)
If you purchased your iPod inside the EU (European Union), then the maximum volume from the headphone jack is lower than elsewhere in the world. If this is the case, buy yourself a 30-pin Dock Connector to 3.5mm jack lead, such as the one linked here...
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Decrescent-Connector-Stereo-Auxiliary-iPhone/dp/B007NIE5 EE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1386012456&sr=8-1&keywords=30+pin+to+3.5mm
That connector will take a higher volume out (than the European Union's output) and that will be louder (and hopefully loud enough) through your stereo. -
For the iPod Classic, in settings, how does the volume limit work? After setting a limit, how to re-set to a new volume limit?
This thread - with a quote from an LR4 Beta thread - says that all 6 central Basic controls in PV2012 (Exposure thru Blacks) are now image-adaptive, as were Recovery, Fill Light, and Clarity in previous versions:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4253485
Whether they are suitable for creating a Timelapse sequence without significant flicker is entirely subjective and up to you - and of course, dependant on your specific images & how they change over time. Sorry, not much advice beyond try PV2012, and revert back to PV2010 if you get too much flicker. -
I am confused. Is there currently a way to transfer 160 gig ipod Classic music to another computer of mine after my hard drive crashed? it has old limited library already on it?
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

My new ipod classic is only half as loud as my friends ipod touch! Why? Have tried different headphones but can still hear everything else.Not impressed for a product with a £200 price tag! Is it fault? This is my first ipod. Help!!
I ultimately had this problem and thought that it's the iPod's problem, I even went to a reseller's store and asked about the problem...
but it was not even solved :/ , so I had to edit it myself
1. Identify song that you know is always overloud/low volume ( though you had factory resetted your iPod)
2. Go to iTunes and right click the particular song on the library and choose 'get info'
3. Choose 'options' , it's between 'sorting' and 'lyrics'
4. This is the time when you found that the volume adjustment is more than none or +100% (lower than none if the song is really low) for the particular song, how do I know that? the songs that I found overloud on my iPod had volume adjustment of +100% or lower...
5. Adjust the volume to none, (you can observe that your other normal volumed song is none when it comes to volume adjustment) you can always adjust them to your preferred volume..
6. Sync iPod
7. Done!! ^.^
I tried this method and it works completely...... true story.
This method is also applicable to classic songs that you found it more awesome to make them louder.
Best regards! -
I know that the 7th Gen does support this feature, and my iPod video (5th Gen) does not.
The listing for Apple's EarPods
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD827LL/A/apple-earpods-with-remote-and-mic
under Compatibility, shows it supporting back to "iPod classic 120GB (2008)."
The official list of iPods does not actually name iPods after the 5th gen model by a "gen" name, but if you look at the list
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353
it is clear which one "iPod classic 120GB (2008)" refers to. There is an earlier "iPod classic" ("6th gen") model from 2007 that is apparently NOT supported by the EarPods. But it's possible that Apple's older headphones with remote control works with it. -
Possible to change the DAC in iPod Classic?
I have a 160GB iPod Classic filled with around 300 cds in lossless format. The size of the hard drive and ipod interface are great but the sound quality leaves a lot to be desired. I use Sure SE530 and Etymotic ER4P earphones, which sound amazing through the headphone amp in my regular Hi-Fi so I know it's not them. I have read that the Cirrus DAC is very likely the weakest link in this generation. Is there any way to change it out with a higher quality DAC Chip?
Apple could pretty much own the digital audio segment if they made a commitment to audio quality. If they were to make lossless files available on itunes, and built high quality dacs into their ipod and computers, they would put the CD player, transport and music distributors industries out of business. Until they find religion, we will have to fend for ourselves. Your question is really important, for if you are going to the trouble and expense (hard drive capacity use) of storing lossless files, you are also interested in the quality of the sound that comes out of your machine. Well, the solution is difficult. Most commercially available ipod docks are not line level and fewer still are digital out. If you can adjust the volume on your ipod after it is docked, then you are basically listening to the output that you would hear from your headphone jack. The reason the headphone jack sounds so bad is that is uses the internal dac of the ipod, and due to the limitations of headphones and earbuds, the headphone out bass is also attenuated. Therefore, it is important to find a dock that will use the digital source prior to the dac from your ipod. There are a few out there. Wadia makes a very expensive truely digital dock, and then you have to hook it up to your own dac with its digital out. Also, Red Wine Audio will mod a 3rd generation Ipod and upgrade the dac. Unfortunately, these solutions are so clumsy and expensive that you're better off using a Macbook or MacMini, with lossless files, and a USB dac to your audio system rcas. Someone needs to invent a compact digital dock with an integrated dac to make the ipod practical as an audiophile source. Their material doesn't get specific, so I can't figure out if the SRS iWow for the ipod is a dac, or an equilazer, but I suspect it does not bypass the ipod's dac. I'll have to call them in order to pin them down. If it simply acts as a preset equalizer, it is not much of a product. It will not add detail back to the music, nor will it be able to process the digital data in a refined manner, when compared to a quality external dac. In the meanwhile, any mac or pc can be converted into a digital source better than cd players selling for many thousands of dollars. I have one mac mini hooked up to a tube dac (and to tube monoblock amps), and another mini hooked up to an external dac and a tube buffer (and to a single ended tube amp). My next project is to figure out how to wirelessly stream my music files from my main mini, to the other one or my macbook, and to use mac tv to backup my main computers' files. I was told tonight that I can change the settings on my Airpot Extreme to do this, and I can add the mac tv later to back everything up. Other than that, all you can do is pray that Mac introduces an ipod for audiophiles. Then you can just put docks by each computer you use, wherever it is in the world, and have a first class digital source. I use dac and a USB chord with each of the other systems in my house and just plug the macbook into whichever system I want to listen to at a given time. Good luck.
