my ipod classic 170gig disconnects when i open itunes? any ideas? It only happened since i uploaded new itunes version?
The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device. Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up. It keeps syncing to the old library...

[Work around] iPod Classic automatically disconnects when open itunes (PC Windows Vista)
I have a:
iPod Classic 120GB
HP Pavilion Laptop
iTunes 10 (latest)
Windows Vista OS (32-bit)
THE PROBLEM
I connect my iPod to my laptop with a working usb cable. The computer recognises the iPod as is shows up as a drive in "My Computer". But as soon as I open iTunes program, iTunes recognises the iPod for a few seconds, then automatically disconnects from the program and the computer.
Only after updating my iTunes to 10 have I encountered this problem.
I have tried all the suggestions on the apple forums and others to no avail.
THE WORK-AROUND
Calling this a work around simply because it is definately not a solution. and developers should really get off their backsides and fix this bug.concerning the problem of iPods (particular the older models) automatically disconnecting.
When connecting the iPod to the computer (NOT IN ITUNES), open the iPod drive through "My Computer", keep that window open as a folder, then proceed to run iTunes. This should allow you to use iPod through iTunes as normal.
NOTE: this is not a superfix and may not work for everyone, but it won't hurt to try. for more drastic but permanant solution, switching to 3rd party software might be for you. I have tried Songbird and had no problems link: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/29716/heres-five-alternatives-to-itunes-10-for-ea sily-managing-your-ipod/
Hope this helps. PeaceI'll give this a shot, thank you for posting. I don't want to say I'm glad it's a bug but it's better then two brand new ipods in 10 days being crap.

I use an ipod classic 120G. When I try to launch itunes I first of all see a box stating "The registry settings used by itunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall itunes" This I have done. obviously I cannot burn CDs but worse still is my ipod is not being recognised by itunes and will not sync. I have not installed any new burning softeware. Any suggestions please?
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

IPod classic 160GB freezing when plugged in
Hi,
My new iPod classic started freezing when plugge in after the night, for example - it needs a restore, then works fine. Any ideas?
Thank you for your helpYikes!, it may means it is the iPod Classic firmware 2.0.4, that is hanging up the USB Host controller, which freezes your whole Computer.
Could be a partially updated firmware 2.0.4, (so kind of corrupted)
Can you
1. Open in finder <yourname>/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates/
2. Remove the .ipsw and .ipsw.signature for the version you are wanting to drop, in this case, 2.0.4
3. Open iTunes and in Preferences uncheck automatic check for updates.
4. Connect iPod and select restore. It will ask you if you want to check for newer update. Select Yes. All files will be removed and it will have to resync the entire library but it worked.
PS: try and do this in Diskmode. -
My podcasts will no longer sync with my ipod classic. Also when I tried to sync in itunes, the category "podcast" disappeared under my ipod listed in itunes.
Are you sure your iPod Classic is configured to sync podcasts to your device? You'll want to double check by taking a quick look at your iPod's Podcast configuration tab in iTunes.
To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes when it appears to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab. Now locate the Podcasts tab and select it. Under this tab you can configure how and what podcasts are synced to your device. If you make any changes, be sure to click theApply button in the lower right hand corner.

The network on my airport express works, have wifi on the ipods,etc. But when I open airport utility on my mac and on the iphone nothing exists. Why?
Reboot the modem. Just pull the power for a few seconds. No settings are lost. The laptop getting through to the internet is not relevent.

I ipod classic 80 gb when I am connected pc connected after that is hanged just showing connected its not working any button .
Try connecting it to another PC, if it is ok, then your PC has some software conflict with iTunes.
If it hangs other PC also, then your iPod Hardisk, maybe bad.
Do the disk diagnosticas posted earlier by tt2, to check the health of your Hardisk.
Have a nice day! -

Since I installed Lion, I can't get online with ichat - shows ichat as offline or disconnected when I open the app.
Hi,
Also try turning Off Face Time
Open Face Time
Go to the Preferences
Set it to Off.
Also make sure your router has the Time and Date/Time Zone set as this upsets Face Time which in turn upsets IChat

HT1320 why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer
why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer
It's not a "fix," actually. If that is a 4th gen iPod connected using USB, you need to do what it says and plug it in to the white square power adapter that originally came with those models. Later Apple power adapters should work; third-party adapters may or may not work. It has something to do with voltage. The USB connection to computer does not provide the required voltage (although it's obviously fine for normal syncing and charging).
If that iPod is connected to a FireWire port, it apparently provides the required voltage, because that step does not come up during the Restore. That model was a transition between iPod connecting to FireWire and connecting to USB. Earlier models required FireWire. Later models only used USB.
If you don't have an adapter, and there is an Apple Store nearby, I guess you could take it to the store's Genius Bar. I'm sure they have a power adapter there, to complete the Restore. (Just don't let them re-do the Restore on a Mac, if you use a Windows PC. Different storage formatting.) -

IPod Classic 120 gb won't restore by any means
Hi, so I was syncing my ipod like I do on a regular basis, then all of as sudden it freezes, reboots and shows no music or anything. In fact it shows 0kb free out of 0kb. I've done extensive research on the matter trying to restore. Here are the things I have done (PC user):
-Hard reset of the ipod
-Attempt to restore via iTunes both normal and in Disk mode. This fails, as it says that the operation was done successfully and that I need to wait for my ipod to reboot, however it never reboots, so when it is unplugged again it reboots itself showing the same problem.
-I also formatted the disk, both quick format and the full one. I've even used third party software for this.
-I changed the drive letter to another one.
-Finally since Windows didn't seem to work, I tried to format the drive on a Mac to MS-DOS however I got a input/output error.
Having said that, I've also read that a format to Mac Plus and then to ms-dos might work. Is it worth the shot?
Or drain the battery, wait for a couple of days and try the whole process again (this was another thing that I haven't done).
Finally as a last resource I found a third party firmware, with which my ipod works. I am not into this, however is the only thing that has worked, since everything I've done hasn't.
I've read that at this point I should give up because the hard drive is most likely dead, however my Disk diagnostic shows the following results, which I believe have no sign of being fried:
Retracts: 556
Reallocs: 33
Pending sectors: 0
PowerOn Hours: 413
Start/Stops: 51
Temp: Current 23C
Temp: Min 16C
Temp: Max 46C
Thank you in advance for any help providedThe stats look fine. Try the DFU Restore method shown in Corrupt iPod classic. It may pay to disable any anti-virus software and use the staged transfer method to reload data, assuming you get that far.

I wiped my ipod classic and then my computer crashed, so i no longer have the songs i purchsed from itunes on my ipod or computer! I have a new computer now with itunes installed, can I get the songs purchased previously from itunes somehow?
Yes, you can!(:
STEP 1: Open iTunes
STEP 2: Navigate to the "iTunes Store". It can be found under the "STORE" tab.
STEP 3: On the right side of the store there should be a "Quick Links" Section. Click on the "Purchased" link.
STEP 4: Navigate to the "Music" tab and click on "All Songs". Then at the bottom of the screen there will be a button that says "Download All". Click the button and your songs will be begin downloading!
NOTE: This will only work with songs that you bought from the iTunes store, if you imported them from a CD, you will have to do it again.
NOTE: You can also do this with Apps, Movies, TV Shows, and Books.
NOTE: You may have to sign in with your Apple ID to verify the download.
Hope this helped! Enjoy your music!(:
