Why does my 5gh video 60gig ipod keep getting disconnected?

Ever since I installed itunes 7 and 1.2 update my ipod keeps getting dropped. it says "do not disconnect" and then poof it disconnects istelf?

anger rising.

When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised  filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
The timeout failure could be due to
Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.
Have a nice day!

  • Why does every 3 mths my ipod keeps on asking for a restore when i did nothing to it

    why does every 3 mths my ipod keeps on asking for a restore when i did nothing to it?

    Either a bad memory/storage location that manifests its infrequently or a intermittent hardware problem like a loose connection.

  • Why do calls on my iPhone 5 keep getting disconnected at random intervals?

    My iPhone 5 is in a cover. Most of the time when I answer a call, it gets disconnected. Once, a person had to call me back 11 times! Is there something wrong with my iPhone? Why do calls (both outgoing and incoming) keep getting disconnected at random intervals?

    Hi, could be an error, if you back up your data and perform a reset to factory standard could sort it. But before doing this, explore the settings for sounds and vibration patterns see if there are different settings selected by mistake. hope this helps

  • Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop if I put in an event on the ipod calendar?

    Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop imac ical?
    It will if I put it in on my desktop though.
    Please help,

    Probably because you did not tell the iPod to sync the calendar in iTunes.

  • Why does my 16gb 6th generation ipod nano skip and stutter during playback?

    Why does my 16gb 6th generation ipod nano skip and stutter during playback?

    Try a hard reset first. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button 
    until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo appears after a few seconds, 
    and then the Home screen.
    If that doesn't work, try a restore of the device in iTunes.
    Otherwise, does this skipping and stuttering only happen with certain tracks?  What format are these tracks in and where they come from (outside of iTunes or from the iTunes store itself)?

  • Why does Mac OX 10.6.8 keep making copies of a file anytime I download, copy, or move a file?

    Why does Mac OX 10.6.8 keep making copies of a file anytime I download, copy, or move a file? It will copy, dowload or move the file, then begin making copies until I reboot. This makes it impossible to deal wit hfiles unless I want to spend a lot of time rebooting after every time, then deleting all the redundant copies.

    If I understand what you are saying this is very strange.  Sure you tried Reparing Permissions and all that.  Also sure you're aware that when moving a file from the hard disk to an external - the default is to make a copy rather than a move.  If the movement is with the same disk (e.g. hard disk - hard disk) the Default is a Move rather than Copy.
    Anyway try this: Move a file between location where you would normally have this problem while holding the Command Key (which triggers a Move rather than a Copy).  I would also try quickly setting up a New User Account and see if the problem is present within this New Account.  This may provide a clue as to what is happening.
    Also, what browser are you using when the download problem happens?

  • Why does my 4s with ios7 wifi keep disconnecting/reconnecting?

    why does my 4s with ios7 wifi keep disconnecting/reconnecting?

    Same problem here. It just keeps connecting/disconnecting indefinitely. This does not started immediately after IO7 upgrade and it does not happen all the time. Sometimes it does it, sometimes not. Very frustrating. So far no solution found.

  • Why does sync remove songs from iPod?

    why does sync remove songs from iPod? My itune library lost songs with an ! symbol.

    It means iTunes can no longer locate those particular files at the specified location on your PC's hard drive.  So you'll need to search for these track's on your PC and re-import these tracks from their new location.

  • Why does my 3rd generation 8gb ipod touch not pick up on ios 5 update?

    Why does my 3rd generation 8gb ipod touch not pick up on ios 5 update?

    I know you are not apple though I believe I still have apoint. As you can see the release date for these two iPod touches is differentby about a year. My iPod was sold as an apple iPod touch 8 GB third generation,and as I can see from this page and many others have experienced this. I wouldcomplain to apple though there seems to be no actual way to do this withouthaving to fork out for additional support, which is unacceptable also my iPodwas bought form a reliable UK retailer. It is not just the seller who names itas a 3rd generation I have also included a print screen of a trade in offerfrom a large phone shop site:

  • Why does my iphone keep getting disconnected from Wifi?

    My laptop has no issue staying connected to my wifi, but my iphone 4 keeps getting disconnected. I connect to wifi then a few seconds later, it disconnects for some reason. My lapop doesn't seem to have this problem, but my iphone has been having this issue for some time now. I cannot load anything on my iphone because of this. I'm unable to go online for more than 3 seconds at a time, literally. HELP! I've resetted my network settings, forgot my network, and renewed lease on my settings, but I still haven't found a fix.

    You are in a bad service area. Maybe you should think about switching carriers. Having bad service is not an iphone problem.

  • Ipod keeps getting white screen

    My ipod keeps getting the 'white screen of death', almost every time I leave it... does that mean there's something wrong with it and it's dying?
    Thanks

    If you're lucky, it will be under warranty. Mine got the 'WSOD' one month after purchase. The replacement is in the store now.
    If you're out of warranty, google search ipod white screen. There are several recommendations on how to attempt a fix.
    For me, none of them worked. Apple store staff were gracious, and quickly agreed to replace.
    Good luck.

  • My ipod keeps getting corrupted and I have to reset it

    My ipod keeps getting corrupted, and I have to keep resetting it. I have owned four ipods. Yes that's right. Four. I have been returning them but every single one does this. It is the same every time. I press the middle button when "Music" is selected, and the device completely shuts off when I do this and goes to the Apple icon. If I press play, then it will play songs, but only at random, and I cannot access my playlists. I have to reset the ipod to fix this problem. What's going on with this?
    ipod Nano   Windows XP  

    Im not sure EXACTLY what would cause this, but if you have had 4 nanos do the exact thing, its either a issue with the nanos being sold at the place your getting them at, like the local store in your area, or its a issue with your PC. I know some people report a issue with a certain malware program that sneaks on there system and causes havoc with the iPod service and in turn causes weird things with there pod.
    The iPOd Service is a program that runs in the background of windows and, in basic terms, acts like the "Middle guy" translating things from the PC to the pod.
    Scan your system for any viruses with a antivirus program and scan for malware with Ewido http://www.ewido.net/en/download Then download install and run the latest iPod updater on your nano here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/
