  • Are the newer ipod classics (80GB and above) compatible with docks for the older ipod classics (20GB)?)

    are the newer ipod classics (80GB and above) compatible with docks for the older ipod classics (20GB)?)

    I have an iPod Touch 2 with iOS 4.2.1.  This is the highest version that works on this device.  I checked it once and it had to do with iOS 4.3 and above only supporting the higher RAM CPUs on newer devices.
    Apple does make it harder than it needs to be.  There still remain a number of apps available on iTunes that will work but they are hard to find because you must manually look at each app specs to see if the app supports an iOS below 4.3
    App backups are your friend since iTunes has no way to keep older version of apps.

  • Got new ipod classic in january,not happy with sound quality/volume output.my friends ipod touch is twice as loud!! is mine faulty?

    My new ipod classic is only half as loud as my friends ipod touch! Why? Have tried different headphones but can still hear everything else.Not impressed for a product with a £200 price tag! Is it fault? This is my first ipod. Help!!

    I ultimately had this problem and thought that it's the iPod's problem, I even went to a reseller's store and asked about the problem...
    but it was not even solved :/ , so I had to edit it myself
    1. Identify song that you know is always overloud/low volume ( though you had factory resetted your iPod)
    2. Go to iTunes and right click the particular song on the library and choose 'get info'
    3. Choose 'options' , it's between 'sorting' and 'lyrics'
    4. This is the time when you found that the volume adjustment is more than none or +100% (lower than none if  the song is really low) for the particular song, how do I know that? the songs that I found overloud on my iPod had volume adjustment of +100% or lower...
    5. Adjust the volume to none, (you can observe that your other normal volumed song is none when it comes to volume adjustment) you can always adjust them to your preferred volume..
    6. Sync iPod
    7. Done!! ^.^
    I tried this method and it works completely...... true story.
    This method is also applicable to classic songs that you found it more awesome to make them louder.
    Best regards!

  • New iPod Classic 160 GB not read by MacBook

    My new iPod Classic 160 GB is not read by my MacBook.  It doesn't show up in Finder or in iTunes.  What can I do so my computer recognizes it?

    Swap to another USB 2.0 port and dont use any USB HUB. (only one of the Macbook USB port can be use for iPod Classic)
    If that doesn't work, use another  USB cable.
    When you connect to the Macbook USB port, the iPod screen should show this symbol.
    Battery charging (lightning bolt
    or
    If you get just the menu screen, it means there is no signal or power coming across the cable from the Macbook to the iPod.

  • When I try to play one of the games my ipod classic freezes and I can not do anything what do I do

    Can anyone help as to either why my iPod freezes when I try to play the games or how to sort it out when it freezes

    You could try to reset your iPod.  Here is how:
    1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    2. Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 8 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
    Tip: If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
    If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep.   Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to power.

  • Ipod classic Model M9282LL not syncing with itunes 10.6.3

    My older ipod classic ver 3.1.1 purchased after 2005 will no longer sync with itunes. When I use to log it in itunes would auto open up and begin syncing. Have not done it in a while. Using an older mac ver 10.5.8.. Have i tunes 10.6.3.  Cannot afford a new computer with newer updates and if that is the case I feel its wrong...

    I fixed it. I changed ports on back of computer. There is a sync symbol on back of the older mac so I thought that was the only one to use, so tried another. my motto: Just keep at it and you can figure it out. Also with all the info via the internet its like a do it yourself library out there and the helpful ideas is fantastic.

  • Why is my ipod classic freezing and crashing/deleting my itunes??

    When I connect my ipod Classic to my laptop the screen on the ipod says that is connected (Eject before disconnecting etc) however my itunes isn't showing my ipod as being connected and therefore I can't sync.
    As a bonus, my itunes freezes as soon as my ipod is connected to the laptop and I can't disconnect my ipod or close itunes.  The first time this happened I had to shut my computer down to be able to disconnect and when I restarted it I was faced with a major system error! My computer told me that this was likely connected to a portible media device's installation software and Windows was thankfully able to run a self-diagnostic, solve the problem and restart after 2hours.
    When i got restarted, itunes was gone from my system completely!!!  I reistalled the software from itunes website and thankfully my music library was still there I thought I was in the clear but when I connected my ipod once again I encountered the same problems all over again.
    This has only happened since I updated itunes software 2 weeks ago after an alert from itunes.  I get these regularly and I always update and have never had any problems until now.  I am not even sure which version I updated to as I just clicked install without paying much attention to the version number.
    Can anyone offer help or advice? I'm going on holiday this weekend and the thought of a 12 hour flight with no music is horrible.
    Thanks in advance.

    Disconnect you iPod from the PC
    Put your iPod into DiskMode, (refer to this Apple Support Article)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363?viewlocale=en_US
    Connect the iPod to PC, but close iTunes when it opens up, you need to do the iPod hardisk filesystem repair.
    in my Computer or WinExplorer, right click the iPod->Properties->Tools
    Click on Error Check
    Tick on both Autofix filesystem and Scan for bad sector.
    Click OK.
    After finish the error check, disconnect and connect back the iPod (give a delay of 1 minute)
    If iTunes launch, select the iPod and Restore.
    The above should work if you don't have too many plugins installed that conflicts with iTunes, such as Antivirus, emails and skins that make the Vista to look like Windows 7 or Mac OS X.
    Good Luck!

  • I have a new ipod, but it will not sync with my playlists?

    I have changed my Ipod nan for a classic but it cannot access my playlists?

    Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists  and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
    Thanks to all.

  • Ipod classic freezing and mixing up songs

And it freezes while syncing an5d sometimes when im listening to songs

    Your iPod seems to have data corruption.  You should probably do a Restore on the iPod using iTunes.  This will erase the iPod, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings.  Hopefully, all the songs on the iPod are in your iTunes library...

    After the Restore, set up automatic syncing to sync your iTunes music library to the iPod again, and it should be back to normal.

  • Ipod Classic wheel will not sync with ITunes 11.0.4.4

    My IPod classic wheel will no longer sync with the ITunes program on my Windows XP system. When plugged in with cord, the IPod acts as if it is syncing. ITunes shows the eject button for the IPod, but it isn't recognized as a device by ITunes. Our IPad and IPhones will sync.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Would appreciate any help you have. I had just reloaed my entire ITunes library after losing everything except what was purchased but didn't think that should be a reason for the IPod to quit syncing. HELP!

  • Ipod Classic 160 GB not syncing my music

    I bought a 160 GB Ipod Classic about 6 months ago. About 2 weeks ago I plugged in my Ipod and it erased everything and when I try to sync music it syncs about 150 songs (I have about 4,000) and then stays syncing that one song for about 2 hours. Then it gives me an error message like (-50) or (-120) or says the required folder could not be found. I have tried everything like updating iTunes and re-formatting it and restoring it but every time it gives me the same thing. I was wondering if the hardrive is failing or if theres something wrong with the computer?

    Problem fixed itself.  Unknown resolution.

  • New iPod keeps freezing and restarting.

    I just bought a 60GB white g5 iPod and loaded a bunch of music onto it. Whenever I try to play a song it goes back to the apple screen and restarts. If it actually plays a song it freezes and restarts when it needs to go to the next song, if it doesn't do that it will play about three seconds of a song and go to the next one and freeze and restart pretty soon after.
    A relative of mine has another new 60GB iPod and we tried loading music on it from my computer and it works just fine so it's obviously the iPod and not my files or anything. I tried doing a complete restore on the iPod and then putting music back on it but it still has the same problem.
    Is anyone else having a problem like this? Is there anything I can do, or should I just either contact Apple about getting it fixed/replaced or return it to the store?

    did you reset your ipod with the new update, it usually solves that problem, a lot of people were having problems under the factory settings
