Perhaps the reason you haven't had any replies is because there is no such thing as an 8GB iPod Classic.
I suggest that you begin by correctly identifying which iPod you have.

    - Try another USB port.
    - Try on another computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

    To give you something, I need something too, like
    How old is the Ipod? (if it is still under warranty, then send it to Apple service shop)
    Are you running Windows iTunes or Mac iTunes?
    What do you see on the iPod screen?
    My guess is, your iPod classic is more than 2 years old and out of warranty, and the hardisk has gone kaput! and need to be replaced.
    Have a nice day!

  • 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.

  • TS1372 I have iPod Classic in Disk Mode and when i connect it to my apple computer it does not appear in iTunes and the screen displays a message saying "Do not disconnect" with a circle with a line through it, flashing. What do I do now?

    I have iPod Classic in Disk Mode and what do I do next cause it's not showing up in iTunes?

    Does the iPod appear on your desktop as an external hard drive?  Has the iPod ever successfully connected before?  Disconnect your iPod and reset it using the Select (Center) and Menu button combo.  Then reboot your Mac, open iTunes, and reconnect your iPod to a high powered USB 2.0 port and see if it's recognized.
    Have you worked through all the troubleshooting here?

  • Help! My ipod classic is not working with the new itunes, it has crashed, i went to the apple store and they restore it but when i came home it just freeze itunes and windows to the point of forcing shut down my pc, is a 160gb ipod classic

    Help!! My ipod classic freeze itunes and my pc to the point of having to force shut down.Help plz i dont know what else to do, i took it to the apple store and they restore for me but when i came home it freezes itunes and my pc, i tried and older itunes, format the ipod and restore it, ran disk erros, am i missing something?! The guy at the shop told me is an "antique" , i bought it a year ago only and barely used it, i feel lile burned money, ipod classic is my favorite model, any suggestions plzzzz!!!!

    Glad 7.7.1 worked for you, I updated itunes on my macbook, and every time i try to sync the music to my ipod classic, it goes for 23 songs and then it freezes and I get "Cannot read or write to this disk", and it ejects it. I tried uninstalling itunes, reinstalling an earlier version (7.6.2) same problem, plus a new issue with itunes. (It was a clean uninstall, btw, I got everything cleaned out, I think, lol). Video's transfer fine. And no good way to get ahold of apple. That's great. If I have no music on my ipod, it's useless. Think they'll give me my money back? (lol)

  • Ipod classic will not restore and will not work after many attempts

    I have purchased and replaced 3 ipod models, This is my third one (80GB ipod classic) and with out fail after 1 year and 2 months after buying it, it stopped syncing with my itunes and now after 5 attempts to restore it will not restore and will not work. I am sick of this and find it preposterous. What is wrong with ipods..? what is wrong with my recent one?

    I have tried to restore via itunes and I still get the same message on the Ipod after many many restore attempts."Use iTunes to restore" with the picture of a plug on the screen and then it just shuts down. Exactly 1 year and 2 months after I purchased it as was the previous Ipod I had in 07.... what is going on?
    Are ipods not made to work with both macs and pc's? it seems they just shut down after a while
    what can I do?

  • Opened the pop up password recovery window and it said not responding and when started responding all my passwords from the laptop and desktop were gone

    I opened the options>>security>>saved passwords pop up and clicked on show passwords and it said *not responding* for a bit and when it started responding my 100+ passwords and user names were all gone and the window was totally clear....any idea how to recover all those passwords?

    You need a backup copy or previous versions of the key3.db and signons.sqlite files to restore the passwords stored via the Password Manager.

  • My ipad will not respond, and when i try to shut it down it won't what can I do?

    All of a suuden my ipad would not respond to taps, or any manipulation. When I tried to shut it down, the swipe for shut down would not respond. any ideas? what might be problem ? and what can/should I do? Thanks

    First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    You won't have to swipe anything on the screen to reboot the iPad. Hopefully this will correct the error.

  • The home button does not respond and when I turn on phone it activate voice control. I have to turn the phone off and back on to access another app

    my iphone 4 home button is not working anymore. I have to turn the phone off and on again to access an app. When turning it on it immediately goes to voice control. I cannot get out of this.

    Voice Over Fix
    Settings > General > Accessibility > Voice Over > Off
    Or,
    Press the Home Button 3 Times
    Now...
    Reset your phone:
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release the buttons...

  • Ipod classic does not respond menu

    My ipod is blocked in a music. Does not play and oes not answer to menu.
    Is it possible to reset?

    To Reset a hung iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for 10 secs till the apple logo comes ON. it will cycle through to the welcome screen.
    Ii it does not gives you a welcome screen then
    1. the iPod battery is dying  - plug it into a USB 2.0 port for recharge.
    2. the iPod hardisk is dead, then it will give a Red X - Sent it to Apple Store
    3. the click wheel is defective. - Sent it to Apple store.

  • Ipod classic 120gb not working and service request won't go through

    my ipod has been messed up for awhile now. it randomly started skipping songs and then it started not playing them. so i went to apple's website where it told me to follow the 5 r's which i did, and now it is just showing a red x and tells me to visit apple's website. i made a service request back when it first messed up but was really busy with school and now that i'm done i have tried to make another service request and it keeps saying we're sorry blah blah some kind of problem and to contact apple. unfortunately it's been over 90 days since i bought my ipod back in february and so i don't really want to call and have to pay. my ipod messed up in april so i only had it from feb to april. does anyone know if i can only make one service request or if apple is just having some kind of problem with the request or what the deal is. i would really like to get my ipod fixed considering it wasn't cheap and i've barely got to use it. thanks.

    Have you tried contacting the courier company that collected your iPod in the first instance, or phoning Apple using the number in the "contact us" link at the bottom of this page?

  • Why doesn't Firefox stop running when I shut it off? Every time I shut it off and return later, I get a message that Firefox is running, but not responding and that I have to restart my computer to access Firefox.

    When I shut down Firefox I get all the shutdown messages, so I assume it has shut down as it should. But if I go back to my PC later (within an hour or so) and click on Firefox to bring it up, I get the "runningbutnotresponding" message and the promt to restart my PC.
