Trouble with artwork on iPod Classic 120 gig

I know that in previous version of iTunes, the solution to corrupted artwork files has been to deselect the "include artwork" option (or something like that) in Music...however, the latest incarnation of iTunes doesn't allow for this. I've tried resetting, rebooting, etc. the iPod three times.
Help, anyone? Thanks...appreciate it a lot.

  • Sincing ipod classic 120 gig with i tunes

    I've been trying to update a new 120 gig classic with my i tunes library but i keep getting the message that i tunes 8 has to be donwloaded. when i try to download version 8, i get the message that a windows installer package programme that is required couldn't be found.
    can anyone help ?

    If it's a one-time "glitch," you can try restarting your computer with the iPod still connected.  Try ejecting again after the restart.
    If the problem recurs, you may have a process running (other than iTunes) that is accessing the iPod's storage.  When connected, the iPod's "disk" is like other mounted volumes.  This process may be some type of utility that continously monitors your mounted volumes for security reasons, such as to prevent access by malware.
    If you know of such a program that you have running in the background, there may be a setting to exclude your iPod's disk.

  • I am having trouble with syncing my ipod classic to my new computor with itunes

    When I have tried to sync my ipod classic to my new computor is asks of I want to erase and sync or transfer.  I selected erase and sync and it pops up with a bubble asking for my e-mail and password.  The computor has been authorized and it takes my e-mail and password but then pops up with three other e-mals form other people.  What do I do?  Should I restore the ipod classic????????

    Kim, sorry, but I couldn't get what you are trying to do.
    iTunes jargon
    RESTORE - to erase all data, ie music, address, video etc in the connected iPod and populate them with factory settings.
    Why do we need to do this? When the iPod hardisk filesystem is corrupted and the iTunes cant map the iPod hardisk file structure, to add new data, music, videos etc.
    SYNC - The process, where iTunes overrides all data, music, videos in the iPod, with the iTunes Library. So if the iTunes library in your PC is blank, then iTunes will erase your iPod, till blank.
    iTunes Library - the folder in your PC/MAC that contains all your data/music/video etc. The iTunes does not treat the iPod as a store, but rather as huge landfill, so you need 3rd party software to recover any data from the iPod back to the PC/MAC.

  • Newest version of universal dock appears to be incompatible with my ipod Classic 120 gb.  Remote does nothing

    I purchased from Apple, a new universal dock with remote (MC746LL/A) along with the proper dock adapter for my ipod Classic 120.  According to Apple the dock works with any ipod with a dock and adapter..  The remote does absolutely nothing despite a brand new battery.  The only reason I purchased this pricey accessory was to have an additional ipod station with a remote.  I could have saved a ton of money if I didn't care about a sensor on front of the unit.  Any thoughts.

    You are in exactly the same boat as I. I have the same problem. I posted a query on this forum too but no help came forth. Looks like Apple could be blocking replies to iPod Classic issues since it withdrew the product. Amazing company. But incase anyone can still access this query, please help. It will help two customers of Apple if not more.
    Awaiting help !!

  • Can I use my old accessories for a 40GB (4G) iPod with new 160GB iPod Classic?

    I just purchased a 160GB (7G) iPod Classic. I had been using a 40GB (4G) iPod.
    The male connectors on  the accessories I used with my 40GB iPod seem to fit into the female connector on my new 160 GB. So, I am wondering if I can use these old accessories with my new 160GB iPod Classic. The old accessories I used with my 40GB (4G) iPod are as follows.
    1) Wall charger made by Apple. It has a firewire connection at one end of the charger cord which connects to  the small white plastic box of the charger that plugs into the wall. The other end of the charger cord seems to fit my iPod 160GB Classic.
    2) Dock made by Apple. It uses a firewire connection cord to my computer, in contrast to the USB connection cord that came with my 160GB iPod Classic.
    3) Car chargers that worked with my old 40GB, 4G  iPod. The car charger connectors seems to fit my new 160GB iPod Classic. One car charger is made by Apple. The other is not made by Apple.
    So, could you please tell me if I can use any or all of these old accessories with my new 160GB Classic without damaging it.
    Thanks.

  • Ipod Classic 120 opens iTunes, is in My Computer, but NOT in iTunes

    When I plug my iPod Classic 120 into the PC it opens iTunes automatically. It shows as an iPod in My Computer, BUT doesn't show in iTunes.
    It doesn't show the Syncing Circle when I plug it in.
    The screen just changes to 'Connected'
    I also get a Caution bubble in the taskbar
    Here is the other photo
    I followed all the recommended options I saw posted including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.
    It also locks up when I eject, and freezes up the PC as well.Stays on 'OK to Disconnect' for a while, not the way it always was.
    Its getting to be a real pain!
    Any help??

    Did you put it on your ipod?

  • I have an ipod classic 120 gb. I had music on my ipod that I had gotten from other people's itunes libraries by changing my settings to manually sync my ipod. However, twice I have had my ipod plugged into my mac and it completely erased everything

    I have an ipod classic 120 gb. I had it set up so that I manually sync and manage my music. Twice I have had my ipod plugged into my mac and it had erased everything on my ipod. All the music on my itunes was still in my library, but all the other music was lost. I understand that I need to go back to the other libraries I got that music from, but how do I make sure that my ipod doesn't keep syncing and erasing itself? Also, now every five minutes a message will pop up on my itunes saying that it cannot sync because of an unknown error and then it has the number 13014. I have no idea what that is about. Does anyone else go through this? How do I fix it?

    Well the iPod is supposed to be synced from YOUR iTunes music library, if you used other means to put music on there then the iPod is going to sync to only what's on your itunes music library when you connect it.
    You need to put the files into itunes.
    Far as your other issues, sounds like the drive is dying.

  • I'm having trouble with syncing my iPod to my computer.

    I'm having trouble with syncing my iPod. It gets stuck on the last step saying, "Waiting for changes to be applied." It's been doing this for the last half hour. Is there anything I can do to correct this or is am just going to have to restore my iPod?

    You can sync/manually mange iphone with one and only one computer.  If you sync/manually mange to anther, then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
    What "trouble" are you having?

  • Can I charge my 2013 ipod classic with my original ipod classic firewire charger?

    Can I charge my 2013 ipod classic with my original ipod classic firewire charger?

    Nope, I'm sorry. iOS/iTunes only (you need a connection to your network, and the iPod classic doesn't have network capabilities).

  • My ipod classic 120 wont respond and the screen is frozen

    my ipod classic 120 wont respond and the screen  is frozen

    Hello Charles,
    What happens if you try to do a hard reset?  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  This may or may not work the first time around so be sure to attempt this at least a minimum of three times.
    If the iPod remains frozen, let the iPod's battery drain completely, but attempting to recharge the iPod.

  • IPod Classic 120 stuck

    My iPod classic 120 is stuck in a reboot cycle and will not start. What should I do??

    If all else fails to sort out the iPod, wait for the battery to drain down fully. When it does, wait for a further hour or so, to make sure it is fully drained.
    Then you can plug it into power. At first, it will appear that nothing is happening, but it is and after about thirty minutes or so, the screen should light up. Hopefully, after it's fully re-charged, the iPod should work okay.
    What happens?

  • Trouble with Differences between iPod 5th Gen and "Classic"

    I have the 30 GB 5th Gen iPod. The iTunes software was easy to use in creating playlists and viewing my music on my device. I recently bought an 80 GB Classic and cannot create a playlist on my device. It always creates it in my library. I also cannot get the browser view to show up when on my 80 GB device. Everything was easy with the 5th Gen but I am finding the differences in navigating the software very tough. Please help.
    P.S. The new iPod always wants to sync when I connect even though I am pretty sure I told the program not to auto sync. I cannot get past the syncing screen without clicking on the sync button.

    It sounds like you need to adjust your settings.
    1. Open iTunes on your computer.
    2. Connect your iPod to the computer.
    3. As soon as the iPod shows on the sidebar, look at the summary tab options to make sure that the Manually manage music and videos is checked if you want to manually load the iPod. A window should open to ask if you are sure you want to change the setting to manual. Answer Yes. If you want to auto sync, leave this item unchecked.
    If you have unchecked items in the main library (duplicate songs, etc) and do not want them to load into the iPod, make sure the item Sync only checked songs and videos is marked. If you change this setting, look for the Sync button at the lower right corner to change to two buttons Cancel and Apply. Click on Apply. It is always important to click apply after you finish making changes to the iPod settings.
    4. If you manually Sync, with your mouse you can drag and drop the playlists you want to load in the iPod from the sidebar. Highlight the playlist you want. Hold the left mouse button down as it is highlighted and move the mouse to cover the iPod device and release the mouse button. The playlist and songs should begin loading.
    5. Alternately, when looking at the device, switch to the music tab. Change the setting to Sync Music - Selected Playlists. Then check off the playlists you want to load. If you do this, and have the default AutoSync set on the Summary Tab, the playlists will automatically be updated when the iPod is connected. Depending on your personal preferences or space needs, uncheck Include Music Videos or Display Album Artwork on iPod.
    6. Make sure that you click APPLY to apply the settings to the iPod after making changes to the various menus. If you do not apply the settings, the iPod will retain the default settings.
    7. Note that you will have to re-enter all your settings and apply if you have Restored the iPod (delete all content and reinstall operating software). In a Restore, the iPod settings are also reset to the Apple factory defaults.
    Hope this helps!

    i formated it with windows but that didnt seem to do anything
    the other night somehow i got it to the point of naming my ipod but after that, it stopped working again
    for a while i couldnt even put it into disk mode
    now, when it is plugged into the computer it is stuck in disk mode, yet not recognized by the computer or itunes
    it makes the sound when i plug it in but never shows up
    also, when its not plugged in, it starts up and just brings me to a screen that says use itunes to restore. but then i plug it in and it goes right to disk mode and do not connect, and isnt recognized
    when i unplug it i can see it pop up on my computer for that one second i unplug it
    ive tried this on a number of computers and it does the same thing
    when i unplug it from being plugged into the computer it just sits in diskmode saying ok to connect
    if i reset it by pressing center and menu, it just goes back to the use itunes to restore screen
    i cant get it to enter diagnostic mode, and when i hit center and play after center and menu it does nothing either
    ive just about had it with ipods

    apple should be ashamed of themselves for such a buggy product for so much money, and very very crappy service
    any help greatly appreciated....but im prety sure ill be moving onto another product after this
    luckily i am still under warranty so they offered for me to send it in....but then i am without music for about a week

    thanks for any info
