ipod classic damaged by car ignition??? ...
Hi!
I've had my ipod connected to a car stereo (sony cdx-gt530ui) for some time now. It worked just fine until yesterday. I had it connected to my car audio usb port all the time. We were on a trip and we stopped a few times in a 1 hour period. Each time we stopped I turned off my car. Ipod stayed connected. However, after a few time car deck stopped recognizing ipod ("no usb suprt"). Frequent turning off and on apparently damaged my ipod. it works fine on my iMac but not in my car.
Is there a way to fix this without going to a repair centre?
Thanks!

Ipod Classic 80gb randomly pausing. ...
I've recenlty come to find out that my Ipod randomly pauses because it thinks the jack's pulled out. I have Panasonic headphones, the RP-HTX7.
At the Apple store they told me that this is due to the fact that the jack compatibility with Ipods are only optimal with Sennheiser and Bose headphones because they 'Work together' with them.
They told me I could buy a jack to jack cable for 13 euros.
I refuse to do this. It's ridiculous. It's basicly blackmailing you into buying something, and I refuse to be a part of this scam.
So I would like to know if there is some way to solve this problem without being forced to buy a new headphone or some cable. Can I disable the auto pause funtion, perhaps? Or is there a way to make headphones better compatible with the ipod?
Thanks in advance.

iPod Classis 80GB not showing up in ...
I bought an iPod Classic about a year and a half ago and was not able to use it due to issues with my computer. a couple weeks ago, I got a new computer equipped with windows 7 and reinstalled iTunes on it and re-imported all my music back. no problem.
however, i recently tried to sync all my music onto my iPod classic which i bought a little over a year ago, and the device is not showing up in my iTunes whatsoever. I have tried restarting the computer, connecting the iPod to my computer a thousand times and it is still not working. When i connect it to the computer, a message comes up on my iPod saying "connected: eject before disconnecting" but nothing happens. i have a 64-bit version of iTunes installer, and have the latest updated version of iTunes.
i have tried almost everything and i cannot figure out why it is not showing up as a device in iTunes.
what can i do?

Charging iPod's battery - how much? how ...
Is there any indicator of the iPod's battery when its connected to my Mac? By that, I mean, is there any way to see how long it will take to charge my iPod's battery? and how can I tell when it is fully charged?
The battery on my MacBook Pro does all those things. I would like to know how to tell when my iPod is fully charged. Or, if it needs a charge, how long it will take, approximately.
Right now, the only thing I can figure out to do is to eject the iPod and then look at its own batter indicator to see how "full" it is. Not a classy solution, by any means.

Problem? with 160 gb 7g ipod classic ...
I recently purchased a 160 gb, 7g I believe (whichever is the newest modle), iPod classic and am not sure if I am having problems with it.....I have less than 10gb used on it and sometimes it will freeze shortly, for about a few seconds before doing what I clicked. I can understand this, and it really isn't something that concerns me greatly, however, sometimes it does make this noise that sounds like theres a fan going inside of it and sometimes will make a buzzing noise thats sort of loud and decends in volumn and lasts about 2 seconds. This buzzing will happen once in a while but sometimes it will continue repeating itself for a few moments. The noise is coming internally. I just wanted to know if anyone else is having this problem as well or maybe I should contact apple support. Im worried that the parts may be defected or something.

New iPod 160GB--- Pull out the cord??? ...
I just upgraded from the 2007 160gb ipod to the new 160gb.
The usb cord going from the computer to the iPod is slightly different. It doesn't have the things to push in on the side while taking it out of the iPod.
Am I just supposed to pull it out? I feel like I am ruining it doing it that way. I thought that is why the other one had those things on the side to push in, so we wouldn't pull it out like this.
Help! Thanks

Low Volume Ipod Classic 2009 from USA? ...
Hi,
I just purchased the new Ipod Classic in October in New York City at the Apple Store. Now, back at home in Switzerland, I loaded the Classic via Itunes. Now I have the feeling that the Classic has a much lower volume than my old 5.5G Ipod Video (from the USA, too. Without EU volume cut). Is this possible? Is the new classic more quiet than the older ones? Firmware problem? May I have the EU Version althoug I bought it in New York? Is there a way to figger out via serial number etc. if my classic is an US or an EU model?
Does anyone, who lives in the US, the same impression about the volume?
Note: both Ipods are filled with exactly the same files and "maximum volume" is set to max in both models.
Thanks a lot for some ideas.

Not playing (1 of 0) ...
Hi,
I'm regularly getting an error when using my iPod Classic, which I think is somehow related to Shuffle, but can't figure out what is going on or how to avoid it.
When working correctly, clicking play on a podcast, playlist or album will play all tracks in the selection, one after the other.
However, when I choose one of my playlists and set it to shuffle by song, when I then go to a new playlist or podcast etc; and I click play, it shows the name and of my last played item, no artist or album info and displays 1 of 0. The timing bar shows 0.00 at the start and finish also.
This still happens after syncing, and the only way I can see to get it working correctly is to restore my iPod. I don't want to do this every day though.
So my questions are, is this a common known issue? I've searched this board but not found anything. Is there a known solution other than restoring my iPod each night?
Any thoughts or advice would be welcomed. Thank you

80GB iPod Classic refuses to sync on ...
Since upgrading (HA!) to iTunes 9 my aged but still functional iPod Classic 80GB produces an error on every connection.
iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod.
Have done the reconnect thing a dozen times and done three separate restorations. The iPod works fine. But iTunes 9 will not sync with it.
Not sure if this is a known problem, but it sure is annoying.

I can be listening to my iPod in the car and itll be fine for 10 or so songs then mid-song it will pause for a second or so then continue playback. Its not in a dock or anything, just sat there playing away.
Maybe its a caching issue?
I hope its a software thing and will be fixed soon as currently the iPod isnt fit for purpose. Could it be a hardware issue and Ive got a dodgy iPod?

I started listening to the new, IMPROVED classic this morning at 7AM and it played continuously until 6PM. Not one single pause. It's everything that we hoped that the first one would have been. I listening to strictly Apple Lossless files and only had problems since I bought the original. In addition to this important improvement it also seems much faster at loading your music with the covers when you first choose music. All in all, I'm one happy camper.

New iPod randomly skipping songs ...
I got a new iPod classic 120GB, replacing my old 60gb. I loaded it up with my songs and stuff, and started using it, but after a while it skipped to next song halfway through a song. This happened a few times, and once the ipod even restarted itself (after displaying a low quality 8bit colour apple logo image). I then restored my iPod, and checked for latest software, and it seemed to be better for a while, but it just skipped a song again.
I'm pretty sure all the song files are mp3, but maybe some AACs. Songs that skipped played fine other times. iPod hasn't been dropped since I got it... I guess I have to take it to an apple center for warranty... Does anyone elses new 120GB skip songs?
Thanks

Resetting iPod ...
I am reluctant to reset my iPod(back to factory settings) because I am unsure if it will resolve the problem I am having with it (without having to go into an Apple Store to have them detect the problem). Songs are omitted from playing when playing a playlist I created. In other words, let's say I have 2,004 songs on the playlist, but when I go to play that playlist, only 2,002 of them play. Would resetting the iPod remedy that problem? Also, some of the artwork on the songs show a black box where the artwork should be (this happens for one or two whole albums). On iTunes when the iPod is connected, the artwork shows up fine. Also, some of the artwork for the songs shows up incorrectly for the song playing. When viewing the Cover Flow on the iPod when not docked, some of the songs/albums are not displayed with the correct album art. The Cover Flow option does not work for me on iTunes with the iPod connected. For some reason, I was never able to use it since Apple integrated this feature into iTunes no matter which version I upgrade to. I have no problem transferring all of my music back onto my iPod because I have all of it in my iTunes library as well as in my "My Music" folder if it comes to that where I ultimately do have to reset the iPod.
Any help would be appreciated.
If anybody has reset their iPod and has had a positive experience with the results, let me know.

80gb Issue syncing/poss hdd fault ...
Hi guys
Firstly I would like to apologise if the problems i am having have been covered but i am getting really fed up over my iPod.
About 8 months ago I went to sync my iPod with iTunes when it came up with errors, sync error -48, corrupt drive, cannot write to drive etc...
I tired all the remedys suggested, including new usb cable, resetting iPod, reinstalling iTunes etc... I thought it was my machine (win xp pro) so i reinstalled windows, still nothing.
One day it started syncing then froze, so looked up again for info, done software resets left right centre, reset ipod, used different software to sync music, tried manual syncing, but still nothing, it would freeze at about 200 songs.
1 Day if synced all 3800 songs, but when i go to play them, the songs don;t play, or its missing part of the song or its the wrong tune against the title.
I am putting up with this as i cannot be bothered trying everything again, I can't afford a new iPod, the warranty is out on this one, does anyone have any suggestions as to what it could be? and possibly how to fix it.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

I have a strange problem with my iPod classic 120 GB from few days. It gets locked(or on hold you can say) on its own. Initially if it happened.I used toggle the hold button (turn on hold and turn off) and it used to work fine. Now even that doesn't work. On toggling the hold button, the "Lock" icon goes off on screen, but as soon as I click on Wheel or the select button,the "Lock" icon on the tops appears again and the the iPod behaves as it is put on hold. It becomes unresponsive completely. Really don't know what to do
Solution tried:
1. Tried to reset the iPod. But it worked.
2. Did a restore from iTunes. But this didn't work either.
Can some tell me the solution please? is this hardware/software related?
Thanks,
Mehul

Backing up ipod! Too many folders.. ...
I am backing up over 8500 songs on my iPod.. I am saving them on an external hard drive AND on DVD R dics just to be sure.
I went into the iPod settings under "My Computer" and made the folder unhidden to get the songs... I do NOT want to use any type of program. This worked fine.
I moved the songs to one folder(all of the songs with names like AEOF, etc...)
PROBLEM: I put the settings in iTunes to "Keep iTunes Media Folder organized" and "copy Files to iTunes media" so I could SAVE the songs with their title.
When I imported 875 songs into iTunes just to TEST it, it gave me 426 items in iTunes, all folders of the songs.. (yes, I have a lot of single songs!)
If something happens to my iPod, and I want to put these songs on a new ipod, do i need to CLICK on every folder to import the song in it BACK on iTunes.
This isn't even half my collection and I already have 426 folders. I want to know now if there is an easy way to import songs without clicking on every folder.
Thank you!
Help!

Querstion about iTunes U on iPod Classic ...
I was just wondering why there is now a section on iTunes for iTunes U but not on the iPod?
They obviously updated the software on the iPod along with iTunes because two new playlists were created for iTunes U (instead of having it's own section on the iPod like Audiobooks and Podcasts have). The two playlists are for audio and video, but why aren't they all together on the iPod like the Podcasts are?
In fact, the iTunes U lectures I have WERE podcasts before I changed them with the new iTunes U Media Kind selection thing and the audio and video lectures were all together. I just don't get why they did iTunes U differently than the other sections.

No Audio Plays ...
Hi,
I tried searching through the forums for this and couldn't find anything specific to my question so I hope I am not repeating someone.
Anyway, I've had this non-functional 4th gen 30 gb ipod for a long time but it only lived 33 hrs before this problem and it has just been collecting dust since then. It seems to work fine but produces no audio at all, ever, unless you count the clicking noise when you scroll. I took it to the Apple store and they plugged it in to several different speakers and it worked. It doesn't work on any headphones/speakers I own but after I brought it back from the Apple Store it worked for about 5 seconds and then the audio cut out again. I've tried resetting it and everything. In diagnostic mode the "audio" option is not even present in any menu.
Any ideas?

90-day complimentary support expiring - ...
I purchased an Apple iPod Classic 160GB on the 12th July 2009, and on the 20th July I received an e-mail from Apple saying my 90-day complimentary support was expiring.
How is this possible? Is there any way I can e-mail Apple to get them to correct this? The support site is useless unless you call them.

Ipod Classic only plays one podcast ...
My Ipod classic will sometimes play only one podcast and stop, not going on to the next one if there is one. When it happens, I need to reset all my setting and then when I play a podcast it goes to the next one if there is one. What is causing this and is what setting changes whether it goes to the next podcast or not?
Thanks.

Suspicous HD sound on new 160GB iPod ...
Hi there,
yesterday I bought one of the new 160GB iPod Classic to replace my old iPod Photo. After loading some music I noticed that the harddrive is really loud and makes disturbing sounds (spinning, clicking and chattering, obviously HD sounds) whenever I switch to the main menu or start playing albums.
Ok, I know that Hard drives do make noises while operating but what disturbs me is the volume. You can hear it even when the iPod is lying on a table one meter away and it is considerably louder than my iMacs working volume for example. In comparison my 4 year old iPod Photo is really silent, I have to put the iPod to my ear to hear the HD sound - the only times I heard a HD sound of this kind is whenever my old iPod froze/the HD crashed and I had to reset it. So whenever my Classic starts to spin its HD I think it's gonna freeze/crash and it freaks me out.
I contacted Amazon (where I bought it) and they told me that HD drive noises are normal and that I should contact Apple.
So, is this normal or a case in which I should try to get a replacement from Apple?

iPod Won't Sync ...
I've got an iPod classic that I've had for about a year and a half now, but after about 9 months it stopped syncing, since then it has just been sitting in my drawer but before buying a new one I wanted to find out if there is anything I can do for this one.
When you try to sync it, it seems to work at first but when it gets about half way through my iTunes library it just stops syncing (doesn't say anything or display any kind of error message but the progress bar at the top of iTunes stops moving), then if you unplug it and look at what has synced there is only ever the first song out of my iTunes despite the fact it often says it has synced over 1000 songs before it stops working. I've tried leaving it like this overnight to see if it will sync eventually but that didn't work, I've reset and restored the iPod countless times and neither seem to work? I thought it may be corrupt files in my iTunes but I have since put my iTunes library onto other iPods and it had worked fine. So does anyone have any possible solutions?
Thanks.

iPod 120gb Classic randomly restarting ...
I just upgraded to a 120GB classic, my former iPod was a 4thGen 60gb. I've had it for just over 3 weeks now, and it's starting to act strange. Yesterday, it just stopped mid-song and restarted, and continued to do so. I'll get anywhere between 15-25 minutes of playtime, then it just restarts itself.
This has happened before, but not with any real frequency. Yesterday it started getting bad. Also, when it reboots to the apple screen, the colors are all distorted.
It's not at capacity (70 gb free) and I'm running most the recent version of the software. The battery has almost a full charge. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

Used Audio Capacity Shows A Negative ...
Hello, I am currently using XP Media Center but this problem happens on ANY version of Windows, and I have searched all over and even gone to the local store with no avail.
When I go to the summary page of my ipod, on any windows system (no access to a mac), the capacity bar at the bottom is maxed out (all blue boxes full) and it says
audio: -x,xxx,xxx,xxx gb
free: x,xxx gb
in other words, the used audio capacity shows a negative amount of GB's.
That is impossible! Please help!

Removing Album Artwork from Ipod on ...
I upgraded to ITunes 9 yesterday and synced my ipod for the first time today because i downloaded some new music. After I disconnected the ipod i noticed that the album artwork was load to it. I reconnected and noticed that under the music tab, the include art work box that was present on the Itunes 8 series is gone. Is there a way of removing the art work from my ipod short of deleting the art work?
