My ipod classic will not play any of my sounds on it...can anyone tell me how to solve this problem?

hi i am looking for help..i recently added new music to my ipod but it does not play them at all, i can press everything and nothing is stuck but it just wont start to play. i have checked the music volume to see if that was the problem but the sound is good ...i need help!

So after the song has started, does the progress/scrubber bar move forward at all letting you know many seconds you are into the song?
Do the other songs you had previously synced to the device still play okay?
Do these newly downloaded tracks play alright in iTunes?

iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

My iphone 3g is not recognized by my computer or itunes, can anyone tell me how to fix this problem?

I can't figure this thing out for the life of me.

We could try, but if it's jailbroken all bets are off. The number of possibilities is endless. One of these may help:

My 5 year old iPod classic will not play on my Yamaha CRX-332 cd receiver but my 3 year old iPhone 3g will. Any suggestions to get my iPod to read the receiver or get the receiver to read the iPod?

My 5 year old iPod classic will not play on my Yamaha CRX-332 cd receiver but my 3 year old iPhone 3g will. Any suggestions to get my iPod to read the receiver or get the receiver to read the iPod? The receiver should be able to play the iPod with a USB connection or with the iPod dock. Neither works with my iPod however both work with my iPhone 3g. The iPod has the latest software. Any thoughts?

If it is a 5-year old iPod, there is the possibility that the receiver simply won't work with the older software (there hasn't been an iPod Classic software update in years). You might try contacting Yamaha support (or doing a google search) to see if it is a known issue. One solution (probably the easiest) is to get a cable that connects a min jack (i.e., a headphone jack) to stereo cables, and just connect the iPod up that way. You eliminate the risk of corrupting the iPod, and it is a solution that should always work. Just use a wall charger to power the iPod.

My Ipod classic will not sync any of my music.

My Ipod classic will not sync any of my music, or show up in my itunes library. When it pops up on the computer it views it as a hard drive. I have restored it mutiple times and nothing works. Help please!

Hello bardwell,
Try rebooting your computer to see if that makes a difference. Otherwise, use the Get Info window for these games to determine where they should be located on your PC. Then navigate out to that location to see if they are actually still there.

Why not work cuda on the card Quadro K4200 in Adobe Premiere? How to solve this problem?

Why not work cuda on the card Quadro K4200 in Adobe Premiere? How to solve this problem?

Funny that you rate your question as the correct answer.
The answer is that you need to rename or delete the file 'cuda_supported_cards.txt' or add the card to that file.

My ipod classic will not play on my Alpine w970BT

I have just purchased an Alpine W970 BT but my ipod will not play as it should,it does not recognise albums,all my music has been loaded from CDs into my library on itunes.When sellecting an album to play,there is a counter on the screen which should say the track number playing and the total tracks on the album,for example 001 of 020, this will not happen it shows 001 of 001,which it will play the first track then repeat it.REPEAT is NOT switched on.My itunes programme which the ipod is synced from is the very latest, updated about a week ago.The Alpine unit fitted just over a week ago is a brand new model.My daughter also has an ipod classic which is loaded from an itunes programme which has not been updated for many years,we pluged that in to the Alpine and it works perfectly.Just to carry out another test,I loaded my complete library onto a memory stick from the folders stored on the My Documents Music files on my computer,this also works perfectly,but I can not get the Album Artwork which would show on the Alpine screen if connected to an ipod that worked,and I cannot play Playlists that I have created.In desperation I also purchased a brand new ipod and synced that to my original itunes library,exactly the same problem.After running these tests,and when I loaded the memory stick,the itunes programme was left out of the equasion,I therefor feel the problem is with the up to date itunes programme.I visited the Apple store in Kingston upon Thames and tried to explain the problem to a member of staff who was no help at all,in fact his suggestions of what to try lead me to say,"You have not listened to a thing I have said",and the conversation finished with no resolve.ANY IDEAS ? or itunes any response.

My ipod classic will not play podcasts

I have a 160GB iPOD classic and have been syncing successfully music, podcasts, photos and videos for many years. Originally formatted on my PC, for the last year I have only been syncing on my MAC but I haven't re-formatted the iPOD and it didn't seem to mind. A couple of weeks ago the iPOD decided it would not play any video podcasts (radio podcasts are fine). I select it to play, and after a second or two it goes back to the menu. I have completely cleared the iPOD and restored to factory settings. After re-syncing it still does not work. Movies (typically MP4 conversions from DVD and the web) all play fine. I have done this on the MAC (factory reset, re-sync) and also on the PC (factory re-set, re-sync). Makes no difference. Today I deselected all podcasts, synced, then just selected a new video podcast (a TED video as it happens) but still no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I think I have figured out the problem. Call it "Curse of the iCloud." In the settings I had "download most recent episode." That may have been the only one actually on my computer. The rest were hiding in the Cloud. The computer showed a couple of hundred episodes, long since sent packing but still hiding. If I click on the iCloud symbol it brings the actural podcast to my computer where it can sync to the ipod. I didn't really want 250 old podcast taking up space, but of course they aren't really taking up my space, only Apples, and what Apple wants, Apple gets, and to **** with the rest. I suppose I should have known all of this, but I didn't, and trying to find it out is somewhat daunting. Anyway, I've reset to download all future episodes, gone back reloaded ones I hadn't listened to, and will see if that works. To quote that distinguished techie, Ricky Recardo, "We need some better 'splaining around here.

HT3798 ipod classic will not play when plugged in

my ipod classic will suddenly not play when plugged in. it is fully charged. the message I get: contact www.apple.com/support/ipod
I am unable to resolve my issue when going there and browsing the articles. above the message is red circle with an "X" in the middle of it.
HELP!!!

Which model is this iPod. The "original" iPod was 5GB or 10GB, so this must be a 3rd gen iPod, at the earliest. This document shows all the iPod models.

If it's a 3rd gen iPod, it has a dock connector, but it needs to be connected to a FireWire port to charge. It does not charge from a USB port.

Need expert help - iPod Classics will not play recently downloaded songs

Sparknotes version of this question, so you don't need waste your time if you aren't interested:
-iPod Classic skipping over songs
-problem with iTunes transferring the files
-need help ASAP, we DJ with these iPods most weekends
Multiple iPod Classics are skipping over songs and will not play them. This is a recent issue and these ipods are not new - we have been using them for several years now. The playlist and the Macbook from which the playlist came are also not new. The playlist copies onto the ipod so that i can see it on the device, but after unplugging the ipod and trying to play a song the screen just gets stuck for a few seconds, with the play symbol showing in the toolbar, but then skips to another song until it can find a song it can play.
After some investigating i found that my itunes must not be properly copying the playlist - it shows up on the ipod, but when i view the ipod contents in itunes, that playlist is not there. Upon a second attempt at copying the playlist to one ipod, i found that all files still show up in the song list, some files are now playable, but not all. My husband and I are DJs and one can understand that this is quite a predicament, when all of our ipods suddenly only play certain songs.
Restarting the ipod does not solve issue. Again this is an issue with multiple iPods, so i am thinking that maybe it is an iTunes problem but i don't know where to begin trying to fix it. One thing i did notice was that when i plugged the ipods, iTunes sat in the "verifying iPod" stage for quite a while. I found some past forums that touched on this but it seems to usually be connected to updating the version of iTunes, and i have the most current version (10.6.3). This playlist was made years ago and the files should not be corrupt, at least they have worked fine in the past.

I find this concept worth considering. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathtub_curve
The one year limited warranty ought to see you through "early failures". I have a sneaky suspicion that extended warranties are intented to cover "random failures" before "wear out" failure becomes likely which is why such cover is often limited to 3 years, the period when it is least likely to be needed.
In your case, assuming there is no obvious physical cause that has been overlooked, it would seem to be a random failure in years 2/3. Not common, but they will happen to someone.

My iPod classic will not play my podcasts in order. they are in order in iTunes, i don't have the suffle on.

I'm getting pretty tired Apple Products, having to fix problems after every upgrade, my Ipod will not play some of my podcasts in order.

All songs play on the laptop windows 8. The second Ipod touch we have - all songs synch to it and play.
But the first Ipod touch we bought - only half (or so) of the songs synch. So I assume there is an issue with the newer Ipod touch. The songs not synching are songs I added to the library from CD's.

TS1382 my ipod will not play any format of film i have tried mp4 and .mov and it says this format not supported what is the problem

i have an ipod classic and i have tried to put films on but every format i try it keeps saying thei format not supported i have tried mp4 and .mov and it will not take it anyone got any suggestions on what format to use and the best way to convert films

If these problem videos are already stored in your iTunes library, try using the iTunes built in convert to convert the file to an even friendlier iPod format. To use it, highlight the video in iTunes and choose Advanced -> Create iPod or iPhone version from the drop down menu. When the conversion process has completed, try syncing the new version over to your iPod Classic.

Since updating itunes to version 10 my ipod classic will not sync any new music that I have added to itunes, can anyone help

I recently updated iTunes to version 10.3.1.55. Since then when I try to sync my IPod classic it says on the top of iTunes (where the barbers pole is) "Step 1of1 Determining Tracks to Sync". This stays like that for about 15 minutes before a message pops up saying "Itunes could not copy ""song title name here"" to the Ipod because an unknown error occurred (-50)". This message pos up for every song title that has been added to itunes since the itunes update. Therefore I am unable to sync any new music. This only happens when syncing the ipod as the iphone syncs with no problems.
Does any one have a solution?

There's a good guide here on how to roll back to 10.7 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4559563?tstart=0
