Playing Ipod Classic with no car radio?

Is there any way to play an Ipod classic in a car that doesn't have a radio, but has speakers?

If you put "iPod FM transmitters" into your favourite search engine you'll get dozens of hits for these. A good place to start would be one of the review pages for comparison of different models. Have a look here for instance: Playlist - Product Roundup: FM transmitters

  • Can i connect my ipod classic to my car radio via bluetooth so that I can listen whilst driving?

    Can I connect my Ipod Classic to my car radio using bluetooth (or any other way) so that I can listen through my radio whilst driving?

    Yes, get an iFM transitter from eBay or Amazon.
    Search for Griffin or Monster or just iPod Classic FM transmitter and charger, they are inexpensive less than US$30.
    Get one with charger or else you iPod might run out of battery faster.

  • IPod classic connected to car radio

    I have a new iPod classic and à brand new Renault Megane. When I connect my iPod to my car radio by using a auxiliary cable, I only get sound out of the left speakers. Does someone know how to solve this problem?

    Is the cable plugged into the headphone socket of your iPod?
    If it is, and the the sound plays through both left and right when you use headphones, that suggests that there is something wrong with the auxilary cable or where it's plugged into.
    Where does the auxilary cable plug into on the car's stereo?

    Disable the Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC option from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes and see if that helps.

  • IPod touch 2G does't work with Kenwood car radio anymore

    Hi
    since a few days ago, my iPod touch 2G does not work anymore with my car radio Kenwood KDC-W4544U.
    When i connect the iPod to the radio, the radio display shows "Reading", which it normally shows for like 5 seconds. But now the "Reading" lasts forever, after 10 minutes of trying to let my radio read the iPod, i have no other possibility but listen to CD or radio...
    I have already shut down and restarted the iPod, synched it, even restored it via iTunes. I also tried three different connection cables.
    Is this a known problem and is there maybe a solution?
    Thanks in advance for an answer

    Problem could be solved by hard-resetting the radio

  • Hi, is there a way to sync my iPod classic with my iPod touch without using a pc? I have also have an iPad2 if that can help??

    HI, I have an iPod touch with all my songs on it and also have a 5th gen classic which is connected to my car. My laptop died on me a while back and I replaced it with an iPad 2.  I now am unsure how I can keep updating my classic seeing as I no longer have a pc with iTunes on it?
    IS there a way I can continue purchasing music via my iPod touch/iPad and then sync them with my iPod classic for he car?  I don't really want to have to buy a new laptop just for iTunes!
    I have seen iTunes match being talked about and am wondering if this could be a solution, but again not sure how I will get new purchases on I the classic as its not wireless etc?!
    THanks in advance for any help.

    No.  You can sync content directly from an iPod to another iPod or iPad.  The content you wish to transfer needs to be in your iTunes library first.

  • What version of iTunes should I use for my 160gb iPod classic with a 2.0.1 software?

    I have a 160gb iPod classic with a 2.0.1 software. I just had my laptop fixed and I downloaded the new iTunes but I can't sync my iPod. I think this is because it's not compatible with each other (am i right?) Well, anyway, I need to know what verstion of iTunes to use so that I can sync again on my iPod. Thank you!

    hi PT the devil advocate,
    The first reason why I'm suggesting this is because of the first question ask in this post;
    sphericalcamel wrote:
    I updated iTunes to whatever is current through software update, but when I tried to run it I was informed that it needed 10.4.9 to run (and for some reason software update didn't pick up that requirement).
    The second reason, is because you will not receive full support on older software version. Like said above, you cannot buy song with an older iTunes version.
    Beside, I said in a previous reply of this post that this is my personal preference to keep software up-to-date and that _I do understand_ that other person could prefer to stick with software version that have been proven to work well and not update. Having say this, I do not beleive that you need to play the devil's advocate here.
    Nevertheless, this is normally suggested to keep software up-to-date in order to prevent either security issue (lot of updates are for improving security) and also for bugs issue. I'm not suggesting to buy Leopard here. I'm only saying that 10.4.2 is out-dated by 9 version which are free upgrade and that at version 11, 10.4 should be quite mature now for all computer.
    For me, based on this, I do not see any reason why someone should not be running previous version than 10.4.11. If there is sleeping bugs running 10.4.3 and not 10.4.2, I'm suggesting to adress this issue instead because _there must be a solution to this_.
    In order to solve the issue, I'm just suggesting to post it on Tiger forum.

  • Sync is grayed out.  Can no longer sync iPod classic with iTunes.

    No longer able to sync iPod classic with iTunes.  The iPod is recognized, but sync is grayed out.  Any help out there?

    I have the same problem with my ipod nano. I downloaded tunes from my old pc. ITunes does not recognise it from my new pc and I cannot sync.

  • I am getting a -50 error when trying to sync my IPOD Classic  with XP.

  • How can I authorize an iPod Classic with my own Apple ID?

    How can I authorize an iPod Classic with my own Apple ID? It belonged to someone else so presumably it has been authorized with another id. Your help and answers are much appreciated.

    To make sure the file system is closed properly iPod classics should be ejected from the iTunes interface, or if iTunes isn't running, using the "Safely remove hardware" tool. That message is a standard warning. If the device shows up in iTunes you can configure the selection of media content that you want to sync to it and press the sync button to start the process. iTunes may spend quite a long time "thinking" before any tracks are copied over.
    If you think there might be something wrong with the device itself see Corrupt iPod classic for some troubleshooting tips.

  • I am trying to sync my ipod classic with itunes 11.0.4 but cant. Cant find source on itunes either.

    I am trying to sync my ipod classic with itunes 11.0.4 but cant. Cant find source on itunes either. Can anyone tell me what procedure to follow. I also cant find source on itunes. Ipod do show the connection but cant see anywhere on Itunes
    can any one help with any information

    I'm having sync issues too since I've updated to 11.0.4.  My ipod 160 will no longer sync properly or will hang when attempting to sync yet my 4th gen touch doesn't have any problems.  I am thinking about uninstalling it and rolling back to an older version of itunes.

  • Ipod Classic with Itunes 12.1 - Warning

    First off,
    Known issues - immediately after 12 dropped, pretty much all functionality involving Ipod classics was broken. Mac OS recieved a patch that fixed this, Windows has not, and there has been no addressing this issue thus far.
    My stuff: Ipod class 120gb 8 years old, windows 7 64bit gaming rig, windows 7 64bit laptop. Gaming rig has been updated to 12.1, laptop was kept in version 11.
    The problems: Most common - Ipod will disconnect seconds after being plugged in, leaving no chance to do any diagnosing whatsoever.
                          Less common - Ipod will show up and be interactable in Itunes, click Sync and get stuck in a never ending loop, stuck on song 1 of X forever, I left it doing that overnight - a good 16 hours - just in case, click restore and get an error 1439 (or similar number, basically same error) Ipod cannot be restored
                          Least common -  upon clicking "restore Ipod" the computer will blue screen, complete system crash resulting in a system recovery or total loss of data
    The fix(for me anyway) - use itunes 11 - Thankfully I had an old laptop that still had version 11.something installed on it, I was able to transfer my non-itunes store music to it and everything is just peachy
    I reiterate - These are known issues, I have found dozens of forum posts on various websites complaining about just how fantastically broken the itunes 12 update has been, and many people have resorted to downgrading back to 11, a not-so-broken version. But here's the kicker - Itunes version 11.0.0.163 has NUMEROUS problems that result in either failed installation or instant crashes whenever you try to launch it, or if you're lucky just crashes whenever you try and access the Itunes store through it. Good luck trying to find someone to help you with installing these old versions if you run into one of these problems.
    If you have an Ipod classic and a windows 7 computer DO NOT update to Itunes 12, it will not work, and most support operators will run you through hours of diagnostics just to prove that your ipods hard drive isn't crapping out from age.

    Thank you Bka131! I have exactly the same problem (your most common: appears, then disappearing). I already spent DAYS to try, remove iTunes, drivers, re-intall, uninstall any competitor SW that is able to sync music...
    Today, I tried with the latest iTunes just issued (12.1.0.71) and still the same issue: my iPod classic appears for 1 sec in iTunes, then disapear...
    This is incredible. Do you know if some people ARE able to sync their iPod Classic with iTunes 12.x? Or do Apple wants to kick out all the "old" iPod Classic and force us to buy new iPxx? I can not believe they could not fix such big bug more quickly ...I did not find any official announcement from Apple that this is a known but unsolved bug ... Very strange as this seems to touch many users…
    Do you have a safe place where I can download iTunes 11.xxx?

  • I'm trying to sync my ipod classic with itunes but the error message says that it can't be synced because the required disck can't be found. What does this mean?

    I'm trying to sync my ipod classic with my itunes library, but I get a message saying it can't be synced because the required disk can't be found. How do I find what this disk is? I have over 2,000 songs in my itunes library but only 497 sync. Help!

    Could any of the music have been sourced on an external USB drive or a network drive? In iTunes, go to one of the songs that won't sync. Bring up the info page, and look at the location of that song on the disk. Does that file and path exist? That could be your problem, especially if they were on a USB drive you forgot about.

  • I have an old iPod Classic with 80 GB (I think) of space. I saved all my songs in an external hard drive, but the iTunes library resided in an old computer (no longer working). Can I get the libray from my iPod and use it in my new computer (Windows)?
