  • Which generation Ipod classic 160GB do I have?

    Hi there,
    I have an Ipod Classic 160GB however I don't know which generation it is, could somebody please let me know? 
    The specifics from the back of the Ipod are as follows;
    Ipod 160BGB
    Model: A1238 
    Serial No:  BK1497HA9ZS
    EMC: 1273  
    Rated 5:30V
    Thanks very much for any replies in advance..

    Thanks very much for your reply.  I made an error in the specifics, the EMC no is 2173 not as above and it's the fatter model, not the thin one...
    Does that narrow it down?

  • I am Having iPOD Classic 80GB.On Sync. a message tells that it is not able toread the ipod contents -restore to factory settings-on restoring it tells that it can not be restored as it has files that are used by other applications. Pl advice

    I am having iPOD classic 80GB . I Have the 10.5Latest Version of iTunes installed. When I go for Sync.It tells me to restore to factory settings as it is unable to read the contents. On restoring it tells : unable to restore as this has files that are in use by another application. I have no idea what to do now. Pl advise. Thanks

    Try disabling any and all A/V or security software you are running on your system and see if that helps.

  • Using Firewire Adapter With iPod Classic 80gb

    I have an iPod Classic, 80GB. I have a car adapter that uses a firewire cord. The firewire plugs into the lighter and then the other end plugs into the iPod. Can I use the firewire even though the iPod came with the usb cord? Just wondering as the wall plug adapter that i have has the firewire slot, too.

    The firewire plugs into the lighter and then the other end plugs into the iPod.
    I'm not sure what you mean by that. No firewire cable I've ever seen plugs into the car's cigarette lighter socket.
    What exactly are you trying to do? If you are simply trying to charge the iPod via the lighter socket, then a firewire connection has nothing to do with it.

  • IPod Classic 80GB - "iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" It says it has synced but it hasn't. Help please I am not very tech minded

    iPod Classic 80GB. Message reads ' iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation'.  It says it has synced but it hasn't. Please help, I am not very tech minded.

    See this article about troubleshooting the error message regarding access privelages.  It may be preventing your iTunes library from being able to save/retain music you have recently imported to it, which may explain why no new content is being added to your device.

  • Please tell me which Ipod dock adapter is compatible with the Ipod Classic 80GB?  They no longer make this particular Ipod and I need the right dock adapter for my Panasonic SC-HC25 stereo system I recently purchased.

    refer to this Apple support Article, on Universal Dock which retail at $59 at Apple store.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1380
    Look through the compatible list chart and see which 80GB model are you using, either ID 9 or 10. you can order through Apple Online Store.

  • Why do I have to keep resetting my iPod classic 80gb?

    Hi all
    I received my black iPod classic 80GB yesterday (replacing one I had stolen, which until that point I had absolutely no problems with).
    I am manually updating this iPod, so am importing albums to my MacBook iTunes and then connecting my iPod, adding the music, and ejecting then disconnecting my iPod.
    If I then leave it for between half an hour / an hour (while importing another artist), the iPod does not respond to any key touches. I have to reset it before there is any life in it. Also, when I pressed play this morning to see if it was still happening, the first thing it did was show the Apple logo (as if it had just reset itself without my toggling hold or pressing down menu and centre for 6 seconds).
    Why does this happen? Am I doing something wrong?
    Please help. This is very annoying!
    Chris

    Hi Patrick,
    I tried that last night, and unfortunately still had the same problem. I have now arranged to return the iPod in exchange for a replacement. Hopefully this was a one off! Thanks anyway.
    I'd be interested to hear of any other advice in case it happens again when I receive my replacement!

  • My daughter bought an 4th generation ipod classic without a charger.  We are using the charger from an ipod touch and it won't charge.  Someone posted online that not all chargers will work on the classic.  Anyone else have this issue and any suggestions?

    My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger.  The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch.  It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic.  Anyone else have this same issue?  Any solutions?

    The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay.  The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs).  My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work.  So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch.  We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger. 
    One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic.  So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal.  Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord.  Or that I need to purchase an applie charger.  We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work. 
    My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
    Any other advice is greatly appreciated.

  • I have a 4th generation ipod classic (click wheel) and it's giving me a sad ipod error as well as not mounting in itunes... I hear a clicking inside when it is connected to power but nothing is working. Help!

    I have a 4th generation ipod classic (click wheel) and it's giving me a sad ipod error as well as not mounting in itunes... I hear a clicking inside when it is connected to power but nothing is working. Help!

    You won't believe this but a friend of mine (who happens to be an Apple Genius) told me to put a towel or cloth on a sturdy countertop (I know this may sound weird) but hold the selct button (in the center) and menu part of the wheel at the same time until an Apple logo comes up on the screen and then quickly turn the ipod on it's side and wack it on the counter where the towel is so as not to damage anything cosmetically. It seems the clicking is the hard drive reader is stuck and this dislodges it. Mine works now (no clicking) and all seems to be well again. Who knew?

    Hello adifromba
    Try putting your iPod Classic into Disk Mode to force a restore within iTunes to get it to show up. The steps to do that are within the first article below, I have also provided a second article for further troubleshooting if it continues to not show up.

  • How can I get an album from my iPod Classic 80GB onto my refurbished MacBook Air?

    Hi there
    I have a new to me refurbished MacBook Air and an old iPod Classic 80GB.  I've somehow managed to get my music off my iPod onto my laptop apart from one album which doesn't seem to have copied across.  Please could anyone tell me how to do this?  On my ancient iBook, back in the day, you could just drag music across to copy it but that doesn't work here.  I've looked on Help about backing up, but it's a bit cond=fusing as the set up isn't the same the Help section mentions, although I must have managed to back up to have the rest of my music on my laptop at all.
    Also, please could someone explain syncing to me?  I've looked on Help, but i still don't know what it means.
    Sorry if these are stupid questions, I'm not that clued up technically, thought trying to educate myself bit by bit now I have my own laptop.
    Thank you in advance.

    Ps Just to add a bit more information, I just realised there are loads of albums on my iPod I don't have on iTunes on my laptop.  I wonder if the ones that /are/ on my laptop got there are there because there got there via me having the same apple id.  I don't know if that's a ridiculous suggestion, but thought I'd better mention it. 

  • Ipod Classic 80gb won´t work with apple universal dock and remote

    I own 2 ipods a 5th generation 60gb and an ipod classic 60gb. I've just bought an apple universal dock with remote and the original apple component and composite AV cables. I connected the universal dock to my TV via the composite cable, with my ipod 5th gen I can watch videos on the TV and control the ipod with the apple remote but when I connect my ipod classic to the universal dock it will charge but I can´t get any video out or control the ipod with the remote. It's as if the ipod classic doesn't recognize the universal dock and it keeps showing the connect the video accessory screen, even when i tried using the apple component AV cable. I dont think the problem is with the universal dock because it works fine with my Ipod video 60gb, but with my Ipod Classic 80gb the remote control and video out won't work at all, i can´t even control the playback of audio playlists. Does anyone know why that is happenning? Please help me!

    I have the Classic 80gb also...same probem. I retuned the Apple Universal Dock and purchased one that was half the price. Pluged it in and it works perfectly! So my advice would be to save some money and get products that work.

  • How come my ipod classic 80gb wont show up on my computer or itunes

    can anyone tell me why my ipod classic 80gb wont show up on my computer anywhere

    Hi lllaass,
    Do you know of any solutions to restore my ipod touch generation 1 or 2 I think.  Itunes says it cannot restore and now it won't work?  Do I have to go to an apple store or do you have any advise?
    Thanks!

  • I traded my iPod Classic 80GB at the apple store for a junk one.

    I recently traded my iPod Classic 80GB for a new one because my friends dock messed up my iPod. Then I received a "new one" (notice the quotes). This didn't seem like it was new. I got home and synchronized it to my iTunes. I ejected it properly and all the stuff like that. I picked a song and it played properly but, when i pressed the menu button it did nothing. So, I kept pressing it and eventually got it when I pressed it very hard, which shouldn't happen. I tested all the other buttons and i realized that the menu button didn't work properly, the play/pause button wasn't stable (you have to press it hard and hold it completely still until it turned off or played a song, the next song button didnt work, the iPod could not reset because of the broken buttons and everything was "laggy." (Meaning that the scrolling the volume up and down had a slow, very choppy movements). Also when it would go to another screen it would take about 3-7 seconds to react. When I tested my friends iPod Classic 80GB, it did not do any of this. Just the other day I tried to reset it (holding down the play/pause button and the center button) then all the buttons stopped working. I pressed every single button it did not work. It didn't even reset. Would I get a new one if I brought it back to the apple store?
