    We have tried the usual restart a few times but with no success.
    You mean that you have put the iPod's Hold switch on, then off, and then press-and-held both the Menu and the Select (centre) buttons together for at least ten seconds.
    Have you made sure the iPod is charged?
    If you have tried the Restat procedure (above) three times, have you then tried connecting the iPod to your iTunes Library?

  • My ipod classic has frozen on language screen going to restore or reset does not help

    My Ipod classic has frozen on the language screen. Resetting ipod has no effect and going to reset of restore on I tunes also has no effect. Anyone with any ideas.

    If restoring has not helped then it is a hardware problem and you will need to get it serviced.

  • My ipod classic has started making a mewing sound and all it does is scroll through the songs.  It will not play except when connected to my computer.  I tried resyncing and that did not work. How do I fix this problem?

    My ipod classic has started making a mewling sound and all it does is scroll through the songs.  It does not play on my Bose sound dock or through earbuds.  It will play when connected to the computer...but that makes it hard to take it on a walk with me   I thought it might be a synching problem so tried that--still doesn't work.  How do I fix this problem with out restoring it to the factory setting?  I do not want to lose all my music content as some of it I cannot replace easily.  Please help with suggestions and advice. Thanks.  Karen in GA

    Have you recharge your iPod for at least 2 hours, preferably till the Full charge Battery symbol comes ON.?

  • HT1339 My sons ipod classic has the music no longer has a menu!

    My son's ipod classic is completely blank and yet when I put it on to charge up it plays the music but you cannot select etc because there is no menu.  I connected it to my mac and tried to restore it but it says it could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1418).  Can anyone help me or is it now useless?

    Are you saying that the iPod only shows a white screen? If so, that's usually a good indication that the LCD display may be damaged.  However, it could be a glitch of some sort.  Have you tried a hard reset yet?  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck, we'll try to restore it. Have you seen this article yet related to the 1418 error?
    iPod: Cannot restore or update in iTunes with error 1415, 1417, 1418, 1428, 1429, 1430, 1436, or 1439
    Sometimes a low level reformat of the iPod's hard disk resolves the issue. See this article for instructions on how to do this.

    The community need more info, from you to be of any help.
    Stopped working?
    1. What do you see on the iPod screen?
    2. When was the last time you charge it successfully?
    3. How old is your iPod?
    4. What version is your iPod?
    5. When was the last time your iPod was working?
    6. Are you using a Mac or Windows iTunes?
    7. Which version of iTunes are you using?
    As you can see in the discussion list, some Post don't get a response, as the regulars don't know how to help without the relevant info.

  • Ipod classic has been wiped. cannot see it on the 'device list' in my itunes. I have tried restoring to factory settings and reloading...it reloads some of the music, but when I plug the Ipod back in, it wipes it again.

    Make sure your headphones are plugged in all the way, meaning you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug. 
    A feature of the Nano is to put it to sleep when the display goes out and it does not detect any headphones.

  • My ipod classic has been stolen can anybody download my personal  photos from it

    my ipod classic has been stolen can anybody download my personal photos from it

    They can, but the images will only be the small thumbnail files that are created for optimized viewing on the iPod's smaller display.  That is unless you store the images on the iPod in their full resolution.

  • My Ipod classic has started to play mono only through the headphones. I have tried different headphones with the same outcome. Is the device repairable or better to upgrade?

    Hey Grimeymouse, 
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your iPod classic is only playing sound in mono when using multiple headphones. 
    Since you've likely isolated this behavior to the iPod by trying multiple headphones, see this advice from the "The headphones don't work" section of the iPod troubleshooting basics and service FAQ: 
    If the issue appears to be with the iPod, try resetting it. If that doesn't work, then restore iPod with the latest iPod software using iTunes 7 or later.
    All the best,
    Jeremy
