iPod classic 160 GB says no music after synchronization

I have an old iPod classic 160 GB that has worked well for years. But suddenly, last week, while he was trying to put in new music (right now I have about 18 000 songs, more or less) he began to have problems with synchronization. After having tried in different ways (and after the restoration, with utility disk and with iTunes), I managed to synchronize all the music. However, it is very frustrating that after all this process my iPod displays "no music" in there. I'm desperate and I need advice because I really want to get it back and listen to music again.

iPod classic 160 gb / Mac OS X (10.13) / last iTunes (12.3)

Greetings!

After a restore, iTunes current assigned to use the parameter manually manage music and videos by default (no Auto Sync).  Select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Settings of music from the iPod screen is shown at right.

Is currently checked the checkbox to Sync music ?  If your library complete iTunes music fits on the iPod, is the ability to synchronize the selected entire music library ?

  • backup impossible ipod classic 160 GB in itunes

    backup impossible ipod classic 160 GB in itunes

    The function of backup in iTunes is only for iOS devices, like the iPhone and the iPod touch.  There is no backup function for iPod Player (such as iPod classic).  All the songs (and other media) on your iPod should exist in your iTunes library, because it was synced to your iTunes library.  Your iTunes library is your iPod 'back up '.

    What you save is your iTunes library (on the computer), in the case of your computer (or player) fails.  Apple describes a way to backup your iTunes to complete on an external drive.

  • iPod Classic 160 GB, do not sync, Windows 10

    I have an iPod Classic, 160 GB.  I have a HP and spin Windows 10.  My iPod synchronized for months with no problem.  I tried to sync two weeks ago and iTunes detects a connection, but the iPod wouldn't sync content.  I reset the iPod (menu button and Center, lock) as fulfilled and I tried to restore the iPod via iTunes.  My iPod is in charge and short syncs with iTunes, but no content does not transfer to the iPod.  Due to reboot and restore, my iPod is now empty, so basically useless. Does anyone have advice?

    Sometimes antivirus software can conflict with iTunes.

    Can synchronize you one piece or an entire album?

  • IPod Classic 160g shows no music after synchronization.

    I tried reformatting and restoring. Sometimes I can get a few albums will appear on the ipod, mainly purchased itunes music. Almost none of my CD from my library will not work. It's maybe a hard disk problem. I just want to have some opinion or if someone could have the same question. It started after making the mistake of syncing with itunes after the last update. Forgive me for wanting to add new music. Here are my stats hard drive...

    Retracts: 9

    Reallocation: 16376

    Sectors pending: 0

    PowerOn hours: 143

    Start/stop: 47707

    Temp: current 29

    Temp: Min 5 c

    Temp: Max 56 c

    Do not know your stats, but it is not specifically a drive problem hard if your iTunes Store purchased songs to the iPod and your CD songs imported synchronization are not.  iTunes doesn't care of the original source when it syncs the songs.

    Do you use the method to Manage manual (drag and drop songs on iPod in iTunes) or Auto Sync (setting synchronization music )?  You get an error message after synchronization?

    Find one of the songs that will not sync to your iTunes library.  Make a right click on it and read the information.  Tab Info to file window, browse to the location.  It shows a file path to its location on your disk, or does it mean something else there, like iCloud.  Depending on the configuration of your iTunes, it is possible for you to access your songs streaming from Apple servers ("iCloud").  But to synchronize the songs on your iPod, your files must be stored locally on your disk.

    If this isn't the problem and/or your iPod hard drive is defective, you can consider to replace flash storage, in the form of widely available card compact flash or a card SDXC, on an adapter.  The 5th generation and later "classic" iPods, this website contains relevant information.

  • iPod Classic 160 GB Gen 7 BOTH of PROBLEMS!

    My ipod classic automatically disconnect whenever I connect it to my pc. I checked the cable, it is very good and works with the other iPod and usb port of my computer is powerful enough to manage this device. There are a few points in time where he would connect after many many menu + button select restorations, but this is an unreliable method. In addition, 4 times the ipod says there is no music. I plugged it and itunes could not read music files. When I checked my c: drive he showed that the ipod was all my music on it.

    I tried all kinds of breakdowns, apparently these problems have nothing to do with the drive hard because the diagnostic mode I can check his HDSpecs. I also tried disk mode but itunes does not show that the ipod is connected.

    I'm at my wits end with this ipod. Help, please!

    This type of problem can certainly be linked to the health of the hard drive.

    When disconnected, the iPod still works correctly as an iPod?  In other words, does show the screen menus.  He plays songs (if there are songs loaded)?

    The first step is to get the iPod in iTunes.  When you connect the iPod, watch the screen of the iPod.  It does not say 'do not disconnect' or give an indication that it is connected?  Is it just to show the symbol of battery?  Or not it reacts at all to be connected?

    My ipod classic automatically disconnects...

    Before it 'disconnects automatically", which says that the iPod is connected?  He initially appears in iTunes, then disappears?  Please provide more details...

  • iPod Classic 160 g will not sync

    My iPod stopped syncing all of a sudden after that my iTunes has been updated to 12.3.2.  Tested two USB ports, they work fine. Tested with different cables to connect, even bought a cable new, no connection. What is happening exactly the thing is, I plug it into USB, iPod lights up, says 'Connection' and goes straight to "Ok to disconnect with the bar of down" and passes automatically to my main screen. All the music it still works. Everything works fine with the iPod. He just used to sync my iTunes more. Sound also, somehow, the return for my entire iTunes library.

    Is it configured to synchronize automatically?  Select iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its parameters on the iTunes window screen.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  Right, parameters of music on the iPod screen.  Is the checkbox to Sync music checked?  If it is not checked, your iPod is not set to automatically synchronize music.

    NOTE: When you change the definition of all songs in the iPod that are not in your iTunes library will be lost.

    If the box Sync music is not checked, check it.  Below, if your library iTunes music fits on your iPod, choose the option to synchronize the entire music library.  Then click apply.  iTunes can remove all your songs from iPod and then synchronize your entire library of music back.  If your iPod has a problem with his hard drive, this can cause an iPod that has worked "like what" to will no longer work.  If it works, your whole music library will be on the iPod and iTunes will keep abreast of changes, when you connect (or click sync , if already connected).

  • IPod Classic does not recognize Itunes library after updating 12.4.1.6

    After (sigh, unconsciously and unintentionally) update my Itunes 12.4.1.6 Macbook Pro, my Ipod Classic is as it does not recognize the Itunes Macbook is the parent library. I made a few additions to the Macbook Itunes playlists, but my Ipod sync... at least do not unintentionally erase all currents (gulp, 157 GB of data) and re-import the entire library again. Is there a way to get around this? I did have this problem - at least I don't remember having it-advance updates to Itunes, where the Ipod no longer recognizes the Itunes Macbook as his home library. I ran a "check disk" on the Macbook and Ipod, and they are both clean, no sign of corruption. FWIW, I use the laptop on Mavericks, OSX 10.9.5.

    Did you have to add your media to the library after the update? See the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library.

  • IPod Classic 160 GB freezes Itunes when connected

    I plugged my Ipod classic to my laptop to synchronize with Itunes and it went through all the processes as usual except at the end he came with an error message saying that the synchronization has failed. I retried the sync and got the same message. I unplugged the Ipod to see it wiped all content except the games. This laptop is configured to synchronize with the original computer. When I plug the Ipod in it now it sends ITunes in a mode of constantly trying to connect and says it is connected to the screen, but when you check the PC it says that itunes does not. The image of the Ipod appears in the top corner but everything is blocked, you cannot click on anything whatsoever or to scroll at all. Once the cursor sitting there in the way of thinking for 20 minutes and then came with this message.

  • My iPod Classic 160 GB (2009) will not charge or sync

    Don't charge or sync in my computer, but fresh in iLuv docking station and car with music Radio connector.
    I wonder if the problem is broken pins, I found a place where I can replace the charging port.
    But why the accusations in the iLuv docking station and the connector of the car radio. ? (using a cable not apple)

    Help, please

    Perhaps the connector of the docking of your USB cable is worn out?  You can try a different cable?

    If you've tried that already, are you using a Mac or a Windows PC to run iTunes?  When you connect it, look at the screen of the iPod.  Should I do something immediately after the connection?
