  • Please Help! - iPod Click Wheel 20GB

    I just finished charging my iPod. After unpluging the firewire cable from the charger, I attempted to turn on the iPod. The Apple symbol comes up, but can not see the main menu of the iPod to play music. Now the iPod keeps restarting just showing the Apple symbol and will not stop. I have attempted to reset the iPod and it has not worked and the iPod is not in Hold mode. The iPod case is somewhat hot too!
    I am just going to allow the iPod to keep restarting until the battery needs another charging.
    Please assist me in what I can do. I do not want to take it to the Apple store for repairs!

  • IPod Click Wheel - problems connecting to windows.

    I have a 20gb Click Wheel - my ipod keeps freezing when I try to copy my music library to it and then it says do not disconnect for hours until the battery dies out, it also over heats. My computer isn't registering the iPod at all and neither is itunes today itunes came up with what I think were japanese symbols across the window when the ipod was connected. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem. I've tried reinstalling the software for the ipod, I've tried restoring the ipod, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the updates and reinstalled windows but still no luck. Please can someone help.

    I have the same ipod and im having the same problems
    but mines I can't install the software after
    restoring tried everything
    Are you finding that when you connect the ipod and run the restore its showing the ipod to be a u2 ltd edition ipod because mine won't show the correct ipod type. I'm trying to find a contact email address for apple support but no luck.

  • IPod Click Wheel problem

    I've had my iPod nano 3rd generation for over a year now and it's worked flawlessly ever since I got it. Unfortunately about a month ago, the click wheel stopped working. It would not scroll and I could not hit any of the buttons (including the center button). The strange thing is that I can actually still reset it. When I put it on hold and take it back off the backlight lights up and I can see the iPod working fine otherwise.
    I plugged the iPod into a computer at my campus apple store and restored it. After this, the click wheel was fixed and worked perfectly. I went back to my dorm and left it there until I came back later that evening after classes to try and use it and found that the click wheel had once again stopped working. I only hope this isn't a drastic hardware problem because I can't afford another mp3 player or any repairs on my college budget. If anyone can offer some help, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Not much. You can buy and replace the click wheel.

  • 4G iPod Click wheel problem

    I have a problem, the scrolling on my 4G iPod 20GB is not working. I have tried to reset my iPod but it wont even reset.

    If this isn't a hardware issue, I would recommend toggling the hold switch back and forth then trying the reset again. If that doesn't resolve it, I would try restoring the iPod to make sure it's not software.
    If none of that resolves it, though, it will likely be an issue with the hardware and you'd want to set it up for service if you're still in warranty (but from what I know, this model is probably out of warranty).

  • How Can I Recover Paid For iPod Click Wheel Games

    Well, well, well.  It seems that Apple iTunes had really ****** me off today.  Here is what happened
    Recovering iPod Classic Click Wheel Games
    Here is my story and at the bottom are my Questions
    The hard drive on my old computer crashed and I bought myself a new one.  When I finally decided to put more on music onto my iPod Classic something happened.  iTunes disabled without deleting my $300 worth of iPod Classic Click Wheel Games.  I've called and contacted them for support to no avail.  I believe I forgot to authorize my new computer before putting on my new music.
    Just before Christmas I called Apple support asking questions & the man on the phone didn't have very good advice for me.  He said that maybe iTunes could replace the games for me.  So I started looking at iTunes for iPod Classic Click Wheel Games and they were no where to be found.  Apparently Apple had removed them from the store and yet they sell iPod classics.
    http://www.macrumors.com/2011/09/30/apple-removes-ipod-click-wheel-games-from-it unes/
    After Christmas I tried again to contact them about my iPod Classic to try and have my $300 worth of click wheel games replaced.  While I waited on the phone for an hour while they played poor quality music into my ear giving me sever headache.  I was already frustrated as it is and when I got a hold of someone she I had trouble understanding her.  (I have poor hearing, had a headache and was frustrated)  She gave me advice to contact Apple about the iTunes store.  I called again and got a hold of someone who i could better understand.  He gave me a step by step information which was the same as the last person I had contacted.
    Now I sent an email to iTunes store asking if i could get help
    All the iPod Classic Click wheel games files were still on my iPod.  Now I needed some way of retrieving the files.  I made a that attempt at contacting apple and they told me that i Could "Check for Available Downloads".  Which was the very first thing I'd Tried.  But these are files which i believe apple only allowed One Download.  I could not get my files from Apple.
    Now I sent them a 4th Very long message stating what happened and Asking for Answers for Four Questions.
    The files are still on my iPod Classic & I would like to Please get some answers to My Questions Which I WANT You PLEASE to Help Me with.  
    The files are still on my iPod Classic & I would like to know.
    1) Is there a way for me to Re-Activate my 2.3gb of iPod Classic Games so that they will once again work?
    2) Is it possible to copy the games from my iPod onto my computer & How Can I Copy these iPod Classic Games from my iPod Back Onto my Computer?
    3) If I can find these files from somewhere else lets say one of my friends or Bit Torrent.  Can I copy or download the files to Replace my $300 worth of games and put them back onto my iPod?   
    4) If I find a way to replace my games without Apple & iTunes help.  Will Apple iTunes let me put the games back onto my iPod without deleting them thinking that I have stolen something which i paid for?  
    After all I have already paid for the files. 
    I really want to Download these games back from Apple iTunes Or to re-activate my iPod classic games and copy them from my iPod back onto my computer.  It seems that this isn't possible.  If this isn't possible I Am Going to Be very Skeptical about ever getting a iPod Touch or iPhone.  I've already been telling a lot of people about my problem.
    So Far Unfortunately for me Apple & iTunes has not been very much help.
    Thank You for reading my message.  Please help me with the answers to the 4 Questions
    The message which they sent back Has Made Me Angry.  I'm Not going on apple pay per incident Paying $35 for a phone call if they can't send me an email with answers to these four ******g questions.  So I suppose you can tell that right now I Am ****** Off.
    Since I sent the first message I authorized my new computer which didn't re-activate me games. 
    Then I went onto Google searching "how to copy files from iPod to computer." 
    Which Led me to this website
    http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/copying-music-from-ipod-to-co mputer/
    I downloaded a trial version of Touch Copy
    Somehow I managed to re-activate my lost games and copy most of the files back onto my computer using "Touch Copy". 
    Then I downloaded the last 4 missing files from somewhere else but I'm not posting where i got them.
    Now that I have fixed my problem without Apple's expensive help
    I Really Want To Know the answers to questions # 3 & 4
    3) Can I copy or download the files to Replace my $300 worth of games and put them back onto my iPod?
    4) Will Apple iTunes let me put the games back onto my iPod without deleting them thinking that I have stolen something which i paid for?  
    After all I have already paid $300 for the files.
    I Thank You For taking the time to read my message.

    Transfer your purchases into an authorized library, recover other media from the device, restore the device.

    Transfer your purchases into an authorized library

    Not really. All ClickWheel games should be locked to the account used to purchase them. If your friend wished to authorize your library that would work. At the time of purchase you were told that you got only one (successful) download of the content after which it would be your responsibility to maintain backups.
    4) If I find a way to replace my games without Apple & iTunes help.  Will Apple iTunes let me put the games back onto my iPod without deleting them thinking that I have stolen something which i paid for?  
    It will be fine. If you transfer the games into your library they can then be copied to any compatible device where they will work. The key is that the library doing the transfer is authorized to the relevant account when you update the content.

  • How do I transfer the music content on my old IPOD (click wheel) to Itunes in my new computer for subsequent transfer to a new IPOD

    How do I transfer music on my old IPOD( click wheel) to Itunes on my new computer(Windows 8) for further transfer to a new IPOD nano

    If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
    1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
    2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
    3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.
    If you didn't purchase them through Itunes, then you'll have to download software that will strip the songs from your iPod onto your computer. And here is a guide about how to transfer iPod music. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • Ipod click wheel games

    Unless I am severly bad sighted, I cannot find any apps or games for my nano. I know that there are specified click wheel games but for the life of me I cannot find them on itunes.
    Can anyone please help me?

    Hello Ryan,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    First of all, there are no Apps for the iPod nano. Applications are only compatible on the iPod Touch and iPhone.
    Are you saying you are unable to locate the Games section of the iTunes store? If so, you can access it my holding your mouse over the Applications tab in iTunes until a small arrow on the right of the button appears. Go ahead and click that to receive a drop down list where you can choose "iPod Click Wheel Games."
    As to what games are actually compatible with your iPod model, that is hard to say. You can check the compability of each game under the *System Requirements* section of the game's description page. It seems there are not any games currently labeled as compatible, but several users have reported success with some.
    Hope this helps.

  • Freezing iPod Click Wheel

    I was using my iPod Click Wheel 20G almost a year with absolutely no problems. I was satisfied. Like a month ago I downloaded latest update from apple web. Since then my iPod freezes very often. It hasn't played continously more then 30 songs (sometimes much less). At the end of the song it just stops playing and all I can do is to reset it. I tried to restore it to the factory settings, use the software which was on included CD, use downloaded update ... but nothing works. Can anyone help?? Thanks.

    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 iPod Updater and click “Restore”
    For Window computer
    Go to folder “My Computer”
    Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
    Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
    Now select “Format”
    Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    Open the iPod Updater and click “Restore”
    In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“Partition Magic”.

  • ITunes 6 & iPod click wheel

    Hi all,
    Is anyone having any problems with iTunes 6 & iPod click wheel. I got two iTunes gift cards for Christmas and I cannot buy music until I update my iTunes which is 4.01 to v 6.x. I was just wondering if anyone had nay issues with this update.
    Thanks
    G4 dual 1.25Ghz, FP 17   Mac OS X (10.3.5)  

    I've not had a single problem with updating to iTunes 6.0.1.
    I use a 1st gen. 5 GB iPod (scroll wheel) and it works fine with the latest software.
    I would recommend updating the system software first to 10.3.9 (your info says you use 10.3.5)
    Hope this helps.

  • When I click on "App Store", the loader gets stuck on "Contacting iTunes Store..." I can click on the "iPod Click Wheel Games" and it works, but NOTHING else.

    I can click on the "iPod Click Wheel Games" and it works, but NOTHING else. Any suggestions?

    I was having this problem. The settings on my wireless router was set to hide my IP address so it wouldn't connect. When I changed that, I connected no problem. While this is annoying since I don't want my IP address to be out there, I just switch my router when I need to connect to the App/iTunes Store. Hope this helps. It worked for me.

  • Ipod click wheel corrupted, restored and not seen in I-tunes

    I have a 20 gb ipod click wheel that froze. It gave me a message it was corrupted and to restore it back to factory settings. I have restored it to version 3.1.1. currently, itunes does not recognize the ipod at all, therefore I am not able to update it. I have tried two ipod updater's that are on my machine, but they say invalid ipod service version. I have downloaded the latest version of itunes multiple times. I am still unable to update my ipod. Thank you in advance for any help.

    Same here. I think the new versions of iTunes have corrupted mine to the point where it doesn't sync, is deemed 'corrupt' and won't restore. I think we may be forced to upgrade.

  • Can an older IPod (click wheel) be used with a wireless/bluetooth speaker? If so, how?

    Can an older IPod (click wheel) be used with a wireless/bluetooth speaker? If so, how?

    There is no doubt you can.
    When you say photos stored on it.. in what form are these photos?? Is this your iphoto library?
    If so using iphoto library on the TC has risks.. not necessarily viewing photos .. that should be fine. But if you have photos you are editing and wireless comms drop out leaving the library with a file open, it is likely to corrupt your library. Please check with the iphoto people on the discussion board if you want to go ahead for the dangers of using iphoto on any network drive.
    The TC is not designed as a NAS .. in particular it cannot back itself up, nor can Time Machine backup the TC. So any files on the TC are at risk. If you manage to corrupt the iphoto library without a current backup... does that worry you??
