  • New Ipod (with video) crashes my Windows PC

    I have just bought the new Ipod and have to say I am generally very impressed. However, whenever I connect it to my PC (Dual core AMD64 with 2GB RAM) after about 10 mins of streaming music, video, or data transfer my machine either freezes or reboots itself. This is the first time a usb device has done this to my pc and I use a few. Therefore I strongly doubt that it is something wrong with my pc. Does anyone else experience something similar? Anyone found a way to stop it? Do Apple recognise these sorts of problems if they dont affect Apple macines? For example if it doesnt crash a mac, it must be the PC. If anyone can offer me some answers I would appreciate it

    How many other USB devices do you heavily use? If you can copy all that to a USB HD (other than the iPod) for 20 minutes and it doesn't hang then perhaps the iPod/itunes combo has a problem. If its a bug in the firmware as you suggest, then many more people would be having the issue. Also just try copying data to the ipod as if it were a HD and see if it hangs, that mostly removes the iTunes portion of the equation.
    New devices can sometimes bring to light driver and other issues that weren't there before. For example: On my iMac G5, I had just connected up a new Firewire Pioneer dvd burner and I was burning coasters left and right and locking things up. It wasn't until I noticed that having the iSight on the same bus caused the crash. Granted, it shouldn't do this period, but it showed that a combination of circumstances caused my issue.

  • SHOULD I GET THE NEW IPOD WITH ViDEO?

    I was wondering if I should get a new iPod. Can you give me some help. I wanted to know the pro and cons.

    I was wondering if I should get a new iPod. Can you
    give me some help. I wanted to know the pro and cons.
    It depends. Do you have an earlier version of iPod? If you do, and it still works well, then I would wait. The only reason I would recommend getting a new iPod is if you had an earlier iPod break; you have a low capacity mp3 player; you want to have a color screen. I recently had an unofrtunate event happen with a 6 gig mini iPod. I have done all I can to try and fix it, but to no avail. So, I ended up looking to buy another iPod. I did some research, and found that buying a new iPod was a good choice. I did think about the nano, but only one will hold the amount of songs I have. The one that does is the 8 gig black mini. However, it costs $249. I then noticed that the 30 gig video iPod also costs $249. Since I am was not worried about size, I purchased a 30 gig video iPod. I am glad I did. It is just a little bigger than my mini, but holds 5 times more music, and also videos, and has a color screen. The one thing I liked about the mini was that it had an aluminim housing. If you get a video iPod, be sure to get a good iSkin case for it to help keep it safe. After owning the 30 gig iPod for a while, I have really enjoyed it. I haven't had any issues with it at all.

  • Got a new Ipod(With video) AND NEEDS TONS OF HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I NEED HELPOk, so I just got a new Video ipod for my birthday(recently had a mini) and I downloaded about 10 videos. I was so excited but when I downloaded the videos it said
    "There was an error downloading your purchased music.The disk could not be read from or written to.Use the check for Purchases command in Advanced menu to try again later"
    And so I did and it said the same thing. I have been trying for 5 days now. We called the apple store and one of the "geniuses" said to check and make sure The music store is updated. And yes it was. So he said if it was then to email them at apple.com and so I came here. Then I went to support thinking it would be there and there was no way of contacting them. SO I came to you guys. I really can't bring it down until this weekend, which I was going to go on a trip and listen to it the whole week, SO I would REALLYappreciate your help, like REALLY lol thanks so much.
        Help is appreciated So much, so thanks again ~Danielle
    HELP    

    By any chance are you trying to download from the store to a network drive? If you are, try downloading to the "C" drive, then move your purchase over.
    EDIT:
    I think I may be misreading your problem & want to clarify what is going on. Is this error occurring when your trying to download the purchase to the computer or when your trying to sync the purchase to iPod. If it's happening going to the computer, then the issue could be the network drive.

  • Transfer music from iPod mini to iPod with video

    I'm going to be spending a few nights at my friend's house and they plan on giving me their iPod with video. I currently have the iPod mini and I was just wondering if there's a way (in Windows XP) if I can get my music and playlists from my iPod mini to my new iPod with video at my friend's house so I don't have to wait until i can go home and connect it to my PC.

    Actually Problem solved!
    if anyone wants to know the steps here they are
    *make sure your iPod is enabled for hard disk use*
    -on your PC, export the library and any playlists to a flash drive or CD (in this case, I'm using a flash drive)
    -create a new user account in Windows
    -open and setup iTunes
    -connect the iPod that has the music you want
    -go to FILE then IMPORT, and select all your playlist text files along with your library xml file and import
    -when done, connect your NEW iPod and format it
    -then sync the music and there you go! all your songs on a new iPod when you don't have access to your PC!

  • Recording on the iPOD with video

    I am still not sure how to record on my new iPOD with video. I would appreciate your suggestions.

    According to iLounge, XtremeMac and Belkin have developed devices that allow you to run a microphone from the iPod's dock connector. From the initial information it sounds like you will be able to connect any microphone with a 3/4" plug and record using the iPod voice recording functionality. The products should be ready for sale in the next few months.
    Although this is a great addition to the iPod, I still wish that Apple hadn't limited the sample rate to 44.1KHz...

  • CompUSA USB 2.o Card, iTunes 7.02, iPod with Video Problem

    I just purchased a new 80 gig iPod with video and had to upgrade my MDD Duak 1 Ghz for USB 2.0, as transfer in USB 1 takes far too long. I purchased a card from CompUSA (SKU 304244) which adds two external ports only. When I attempt to transfer files into the iPod it seems to function at the faster speed, but will then freeze on a file, not allowing me to eject the iPod or sometimes to even force quit iTunes. I have tried this several times and there is no consistency regarding how many files have transferred or their size as to when the freeze will occur.
    I originally tried this without adding a driver (using OS X 10.4.8), then I added the one from the included disc - same results. I then re-installed the 10.4.8 updater thinking this might have a more recent driver, but things are still the same.
    I don't have any other USB 2 devices to use to test the card.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Not all of the USB2 PCI cards out there are completely compatible with Mac as they claim to be.
    I tried a two-port IOGear card that had that same problem.
    Replace it with a 5 port (1 internal and 4 external) Belkin and it works just fine.
    Someone has had a list somewhere of the ones that work best. I know that Belkin is one of the good brands to buy for loading a video iPod on a PowerMac. There are others, though.
    You might find more on it in the video iPod board.

  • How to get a new ipod with ipod's warranty

    My ipod nano is a total loss. The screen is totally unfanctuanal. Its a Technical problem. What are the steps to get a new ipod with the warranty?

    I was honestly just wondering that myself. My LCD screen literally cracked last night and i cant find a single thing on the apple support site that is helping me get it fixed under the warranty. It's kind of frustrating

  • ... iPod with video makes noises...

    OK... so just recently my iPod with video (30 gig) started to make odd sounds... They sound like mechanical type sounds...
    It did this when I first turned it on and started a song... (also when I restarted it)
    I haven't dropped my iPod recently or do anything that might have messed up anything inside... D:
    Oh... By the way... I got my iPod abott a year ago... During Christmas last year...
    I honestly have no idea if its still under any kind of warranty, so I'm not sure what to do about this...
    I need advice or something...
    My iPod is my baby and I don't know what to do...
    PC! Windows XP Pro

    Umm....I hear that from my iPod all the time, but if I were to listen carefully. It's not loud or noticeable when you're doing things, but if you were real quiet, like at night when I use to to fall asleep to, I can hear the humming and such, much like a TV would when it's on. I really can't tell or don't know if what you're hearing is abnormal or just regular hard drive/screen noises. All hard drives will make some kind of noise (it's the read/write heads moving rapidly over the platters that makes the crackle sounds or whatever).

  • ITunes keeps saying that my 60GB iPod with Video is corrupted when it's not

    I have an 60GB iPod with Video that iTunes keeps saying is corrupted when I connect it to my MacBook Pro. Although it seems to only happen after using it for more than a short amount of time before syncing it. I just watched a 5 minute video after I ejected my iPod and when I synced it after that, iTunes did not say it was corrupted. Although when I used it for over 3 hours earlier today and synced it, iTunes said it was corrupted. When iTunes says it is corrupted, I eject the iPod and resync it, and it's always fine the second time. This issue has been ongoing for a month or two now and it's starting to get annoying. I bought the iPod last June.

    it can be some corrupted files or bad sectors on the HD of your iPod, see doing the following helps
    For Mac computer
    1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
    2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
    3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
    4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
    5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”

  • IPod (with video) freezes Windows XP - POSSIBLE SOLUTION

    Hi everyone,
    I bought a 5g 30gig iPod with video a few days ago, and immediately ran into the "iPod freezes Windows when connected via USB 2.0" problem. I read through every possible post on this website, on iLounge, on Microsoft's forums, etc. There seems to be quite a substantial number of people running into this problem, because I've been seeing posts about this all over the place.
    My specific problem was that whenever I plugged in my iPod, the iPod would display "do not disconnect" and iTunes would begin to recognize it - sometimes it would reach the point where it would begin to update - and then the computer would completely freeze. The iPod would "disconnect" and be completely usable, but the computer would not respond to anything what-so-ever. I had to perform a hard restart to get the computer usable again. No error messages, no "ctrl-alt-del" saves, nothing. It would also lock in the same exact way if I just plugged the iPod in without starting iTunes (iTunes wouldn't automatically start, computer would just lock up after a few moments).
    Anyway, my problem was solved through a procedure I saw in a post somewhere (I'm pretty sure it was on these forums, actually). Basically, it seems as though there is some sort of conflict between iTunes, Quicktime, and Symantec's anti-virus.
    The process is pretty simple - completely turn off whatever version of Symantec you're using (Norton AntiVirus, Firewall, whatever... I'm running Symantec Corporate AntiVirus 10). Then, uninstall Quicktime and iTunes (it might not be absolutely necessary to completely uninstall iTunes - I uninstalled Quicktime and then "repaired" the iTunes installation).
    This seemed to resolve the situation entirely - I've updated my iPod three times now, and charged it, with no problems. Hopefully this continue to work... !
    Incidentally, I think it's disgusting that this seems to be such a prevalent problem, yet Apple so far refuses to acknowlege its existence, much less provide a solution. As a long-time Windows/Microsoft user (notice I didn't say 'fan'), I expected much more from Apple.
    Anyway, good luck!

    Hi!
    I have the same problem, though using iPod Touch.
    My PC crashes just after charging sound on th iPod sounds.
    I can be loggen on or not.
    I have tried the 5R's two times
    I have removed SP3, didn't help.
    I have updated to iTunes 8.0.1: Didn't help.
    But I have an portable PC (job PC) where it is working fine, both PC's using XP Pro, english version.
    So, just now, I am very dissapointed bu the Apple products (and it took me 20 years of Software Engineering before i bought something from Apple ..... )
    So the stress test will be: Will Apple do anything with this ?

  • Which cable should I have for my ipod with video

    Hi I have ipod with video and bought the ipod fw power adapter gen, so I could charge my ipod away from my computer. I bought the wrong cable and sent it back and have received the wrong cable again. Can anyone help me and tell me which cable I should have, the cables I previously bought from apple are thin firewire cable 6-6 pin o.5m gen, and then ipod dock connector to usb 2.0.

    Hi the firewire cable you mention is the one that i bought originally and it does not work with ipod video, the conection to my ipod with this cable is fine but the conection to the other end of the cable does not fit the charger, I checked the link that you both mention and it actually says that it is not compatable. The charger I bought says it works with ipod video thats why I am so confused to know what cable to buy and have made to mistakes already. If you can help me Id be delighted because its driving me nuts.
