My ipod classic 160gb just stay on, I can't turn it off.

My ipod classic 160gb just stay on, I can't do any operation on it, can't turn it of. I can't connect it to my computer. Also I tried to switch the lock button, then pressed the center button and menu button together, to restart it, but didn't work. IT JUST STAY ON!

You need to press and hold down the Center and Menu buttons at the same time, until the Apple logo appears.

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!

All my contacts use iPhones but one doesn't use iMessage because it uses data. I want to use iMessage for other contacts but i have to turn off for just one contact. Can i turn iMessage off for just one contact?

You need to delete here conversation and start another one using her phone number and not her Apple ID. You cannot delete iMessage, you can disable it. If the Apple server still sees her iPod with iMessage on and using her Apple ID, then it will continue to appear to your phone that she has iMessage. She needs to take a look at this support document about permanently disabling iMessage for her account. Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone

My music won't play on my ipod classic 160GB and it skips songs can anyone help me?

My ipod classic 160GB won't play my music there is sound coming from it but the music won't play and it skips songs as well does anyone now how to fix that?

Have you checked if your Earphones are working?
Do you get the Music menu after the reset? (what is display on the Screen? song playing)
Normally if you Reset the iPod, it will turn the shuffle mode off, but do check under setting that shuffle mode is off.

Ipod screen lights up but is blank. can't turn it off. what can i do?

ipod touch 4th generation screen light up but the screen is blank. we cannot turn it off. any suggestions?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I enabled radio on my iPod Touch 2G...now I can't turn it off

I was breadboarding a microphone for my iPod Touch 2G using the headphone/mic jack as an input. I made a simple circuit to power the mics with an additional 2.4V (I suspected the PIP wasn't enough for the 4 mics I was using) but I left out the DC blocking caps on the audio out, and I plugged it into my ipod. I am a bad "engineer"; actually I'm not an engineer at all, I am a guesser and checker. well, now my recordings (with voice memos, blue fire, and epiphany) are all full of static. I thought I had burned something up, but I didn't know what; the mics are still solid (they work in my wife's identical ipod Touch). Then I tried recording again and again with just the PIP, no powering circuit, and when I listened to the static filled recordings I realized I can hear voices in the recordings. changing rooms in my house reveals these voices to be a country music station, and there is no country music on my ipod or being played within earshot of the mic. I can't change the station either.
If it wasn't the added bias voltage (present for about 10 seconds), it could have been a long-term short in one of the mics. I didn't realize one of the mics was shorting out until the music player kept coming on in the middle of my recordings, so it may not have been the added voltage that did this- it could have been a short to ground of the mic audio contact.
I understand that the bluetooth chip in these iPods has a radio tuner, and I believe I just accidentally activated it, one way or the other. But I want to record sounds through the mic, not radio, so does anyone have any ideas on how to re-disable the radio?

Dave and Razor,
I tried the hard reset but I haven't had time to try a full restore, thanks for the suggestion. I'll do it this weekend. I am tempted to just open this ipod up and physically disable the bluetooth chip, but I may just go ahead and make a line-in adapter and microphone preamp for the dock connector rather than go through the minijack.
But if anyone can figure out how to tune this radio, its in there and definitely can be enabled...

My mini ipad just went black? can't turn it off or anything

my ipad mini just went black, no nothing, just a blank screen.
what do i do?

If there is nothing showing on the iPad's screen, then assuming that its battery isn't empty then have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear and it will boot up - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Ipod Classic 160GB dropped dead

My 1,5 year old Ipod classic 160GB just dropped dead yesterday. Nothing happened to it, I was listening music just before going to theater, I left it on my desk, I came back, it didn't boot up. I've tried to reset it 500 times, nothing works.
The only way to get the screen to do anything more than just being blank is to connect it to my laptop or pc, with the connector cable. It doesn't function as a seperate harddisk anymore, it can't be reached or found, the only thing it does is showing an apple logo on the screen (like the one in reset) for less then a second, then turning of the screen again, and then showing it again, repeating this process forever.
I doubt it any of you guys know how to fix this, but has anyone had experience with anything like this before?
And does anyone know how apple deals with this? Yes I'm a couple of months over my gaurantee, but it can't be possible that a premium brand multimedia player like an Ipod (and an expensive one with that)just drops dead out of nowhere, after 1,5 year of very carefull use? I've never dropped it even once, it has always had a protection sleeve.

I've had a friend of mine take a look at it today. He runs on a Mac but connecting the Ipod doesn't do anymore then on my windows machine.
However, when we tried it with a firewire connection cable (instead of the normal type cable via usb 2.0) my Ipod was able to reset and even boot. I could listen to music, browse my stuff and the like, however as soon as I unplug, my Ipod is dead as can be. I've tried to make it charge for several hours with no effect.
So it seems my accu is dead, but the rest of my Ipod is ok. I'm gonna check what a replacement accu will cost me and if Apple will fund this or if I'm gonna have to pay for the failing hardware at my local Apple retail point.
*So trying firewire connection cable didn't do much for me apart from knowing that my accu is done for, but it might help others out here.*

Crossfade And Reverb for Ipod Classic 160GB?

When is Apple going to make an update containing the Crossfade feature for the ipod classic 160GB? Also, is there any way to put a Reverb setting on the ipod classic 160GB? If so, how can I do that?

Probably never, and no, through strictly speaking these forums aren't really the place for speculation. I suspect that if crossfade were easily within the capability of the the existing hardware then it would already have been introduced. I'm not sure I see the case for putting reverb on what is essentially a personal playback device, and there certainly isn't any way you can bolt it on yourself.
If you'd like Apple to consider adding features to the iPod then the place to make the suggestions is iPod Feedback.

Just took my iPod classic 160GB out of box turned it on and accidently hit clickwheel or button and eveything is in language other than english. How do I get it back to english without being able to read symbols.

just took my iPod classic 160GB out of box, turned it on and accidentially hit a button changing the language from english to something else (chinese or japanese). All I see now is symbols. How do I turn it back to english without knowing what any of these symbols mean. I started clicking buttons and click wheel and can't seem to get to any section with various language options. Please some help me get it back to english.

There are two options. The first is to learn whatever language you have it set to, the second is to find someone else with an iPod Classic and read the English menu and follow it in your iPod. I also believe you may be able to set language perfunces from within iTunes while the iPod is docked, providing they are in English.

I just bought a new Ipod classic 160gb. I was able to load my songs ok but I don't know how to load all of my playlists. Can someone tell me how to do it?

You'll need to contact Apple then for help on resetting some of that account information.

I have an ipod nano 8gb which is full, my husband is a jazz fan, I am thinking of buying another ipod classic 160gb - is it possible to link this to the same library in itunes and just put all his jazz on the new ipod?

I have an ipod nono 8gb which is about 5 years old and is full - my husband is a jazz fan, and now I have jazz on my little ipod and my ipod touch. I am thinking of getting an ipod classic 160gb and putting all his jazz on to it. Is it possible for me to link it to my Itunes library and his Itunes library and just put all the jazz on to the new Ipod classic? if so, how do I then delete the jazz of the other two ipods?

There is no limit to the number of iPods you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
You might want to create a seperate iTunes library for him, perhaps on another user account on the system and move all of his Jazz music over to that new library. Once you have all of his music moved over to his own library, remove it from your own and then resync both of your iPods to clear his music off. This is just one way to do it.
If that was a bit confusing, take a look at this article for a few ways to manage multiple iPods with one computer.

I've just downloaded itunes 12 onto my pc. When I connect my IPod classic 160gb, it's name shows up briefly before the ipod silhouette at the top left simply greys out and nothing happens.
Please advise.

I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

HT1351 I have just purchased an ipod classic 160GB and decided to sync my itunes music and videos that I purchased via itunes. All the music sunk but it didnt sync my videos. It said that they were in the wrong format. What to do??

I have just purchased an ipod classic 160GB and decided to sync my itunes music and videos that I purchased via itunes. All the music sunk but it didnt sync my videos. It said that they were in the wrong format. What to do?? I would have thought if I bought the films from itunes it would be compatible with an ipod classic?? How do you change the video format?

My mistake, it was nothing to do with format. It woldn't sync because my movies were HD. HD movies won't sync to an iopd classic 160 GB but when you purchase a HD movie, itunes gives you a SD vervsion of the movie which is compatible with the ipod. Just needed to go to store, click movies, click purchased and untick the HD box and there you have the SD versions. Download the SD versions and then sync your ipod and bobs you uncle, movies are on the ipod

My ipod classic 160gb just stay on, I can't turn it off.
