Syncing music with USB port 1.1

I just got an iPod classic 160GB, but it doesn't communicate with my computer properly.
I tried to put some songs to the new iPod, but after syncing 20 songs I got the error message "Attempting to copy to the disk "(iPod name)" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
I called AppleCare to solve the problem, and the guy told me that I need to upgrade the USB port from 1.1 to 2.0.
Does anybody know if I really need to upgrade my USB port to 2.0?
I read some of the topics on this discussion page and some people were saying that the USB 1.1 works with iPod classics.
I also want to know if any of the transfer cables which convert FireWire to USB2.0 works with iPods.
I don't want to spend any more money to upgrade my computer to make it work with my iPod.
(I had to upgrade OS)
Please help me to get my iPod work!!

The USB port on your Cinema is a port on the built-in hub in the display. It can't supply the power needed by the iPhone.

  • Syncing issues with USB port

    I can only sync on the USB port on my G5 tower. When I plug into the USB port on my Apple Cinema display the phone only charges...no syncing. Any ideas? I'd like to use the display port.

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

    Visit the local Apple store in the mall and they ran diagnostics on it. They told me the phone has no hardware problems.
    Still the issue is not resolved.
    Please help it has been more than 2 weeks that I have this problem and it seems no one is helping.

  • My iPhone 5 ios7, won't sync music with itunes 11.1.2.32

    My iPhone 5 ios7.0.3, won't sync music with itunes 11.1.2.32.
    The Sync starts and finsihes but no changes are made to the content on the iphone. No files transfer. Tried both wifi and cable sync.

    Sorry, but this doesn't work either.  Thank you for the response though.
    I originally tried the Manually Manage Music and Videos and even though I selected what I wanted to copy and then clicked the Sync button.....nothing gets copied over.   I then tried copying over my entire library (and I expected the phone to explode since my library is HUGE) and clicked the Sync button....nothing got copied over.
    I have uninstalled iTunes, reinstalled iTunes (and lost half my library thank you Apple).
    I have deleted my iPhone backup.
    I have updated my iTunes (not that there were any new updates).
    I have updated my iPhone (not that there were any new updates).
    I have changed and tested every single setting, every which way possible and NOTHING works.
    I can sync movies, pictures, apps - no problem whatsoever.  But music?  Forget it.
    I hate the iPhone and I won't recommend it to ANYONE.  All I wanted was an all-in-one device to make my life easier and this is NOT IT!  This should not be this hard and as far as I'm concerned, Apple failed BIG TIME.

  • My iphone5 wont charge with usb port but works fine with wall plug... Infact computer. Doesn't recognizes the iphone

    Battery not charging with usb port but works fine with wall plug.. So the prob is computer is not detecting the iphone5 . This problem started after upgrading to 6.1.3 version

    Try to see what happens on another computer. If it works on another computer, the issue is not at the iPhone.

  • Sync single song via iTunes with my iPhone 5 & can't sync music with my iPhone

    Hey there,
    I have two questions about iTunes and my iPhone 5.
    1) I have my full music library connected with iTunes and most songs are not bought via iTunes. Now I have alle artists listet up with their albums.
         Can I now sync only one single song from an album with my iPhone 5? If I want to sync music with my iPhone I can only choose between Playlists, Artists,       Albums and Genres but not single songs. Is there a possibility to sync single songs from a full album?
    2) The other problem is when I want to sync music (and only music!) iTunes starts syncing with my iPhone 5 and nothing happens. After a while a get an error         that the synchronisation is stopped because it couldn't start syncing. Why? What can I do?
    I use a windows 8 laptop with the newst version of iTunes and iPhone 5!

    Which iTunes version is installed on your computer?
    What happens when syncing? Any error message provided?

    You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

  • Unable to sync music with iphone 5. can some one pl assist ?

    I have tried everything to sync music with iphone 5 withut success. any ideas ?? what could be the problem ?

    First of all, read my post to OP
         You can only sync music via computer iTunes.
         Watch this iPod video, it's the same for iPhone.
    Your Post
         Not true. You CAN sync music via Wifi.
    Did I mention anything about cable? So what is not true?

    Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync.
    What about that?
    To do that you also first have to connect using a cable to set it up in computer iTunes.

  • Print not response when i connect T1100 Epson to router RT-N16 ASUS with USB port???

    For my macbook pro that I brought July 2010. I can print with T1100 Epson printer connect directly to my mac but when I connect T1100 to ASUS Router RT-N16 with USB port and I assign print to T1100 pass through wireless It's not response. How do we do please ???
    Many Thanks for your answer...

    Hello Shawnondrums,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with the printer shutting down when attempting to connect to the wireless network.
    A very important step that gets easily over looked is, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Once the printer is back on, please use the on/off button to do a proper shut down and restart.  This will also do a semi power reset on the printer.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.

  • Is it safe to use the Belkin power strip with USB ports to charge my iPad? Or is the iPad USB adapter the safest route to take when traveling with device?

    Is it safe to use the Belkin power strip with USB ports to charge my iPad?
    Or is it better to travel with the Wall Charger provided with iPad?
    Concerned about safety of the device. Thanks for your thoughts.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Itunes does not allow me to sync music with iphone?

    Itunes does not allow me to sync music with iphone?

    Have a similar issue.  Have iphone 4 running ios7.  itunes 11.1.3.8.  Probably is intermittent (once every 2 weeks?) and persistent.   Syncs fine for days.  Then all at once playlists are not updated.   For example; over the holidays I added some holiday songs to a playlist.  Today I removed the holiday songs from the playlist in itunes.  Sync the phone.  All messages indicate sync is successful.  Songs still in playlist on the phone!  Continues to happen over multiple syncs.  In the past I have had some songs update but not all songs.  This cycle of attempting syncing continues until other songs on the iphone 'disappear' (they are listed in playlists but don't play!).   Don't know the cause but it is very annoying and unpredictable.   Eventually taking all music off the iphone and then adding it back works but even this take multiple iterations.   These issues seem to have started after upgrading to ios7.  I have workarounds that are very timeconsuming.  I'm interested in solutions to the root cause.  Can anyone help?
