• iPod classic connects to the computer

  Hello

  I have an iPod classic, since 2005.

  It will charge from the grid, but when you plug it into the computer it does nothing... Does not make a noise, does not load... Nothing, only thing that happens is that when you disconnect the computer screen lights illuminates... tried all USB ports, still is not, tried 3 computers, does not work on any...

  so I tried 2 more iPods, an iPod classic in 2004 and it worked fine. Tried an iPod nano of 2007 once again absolutely worked well...

  really annoying me now that I want to sync music on the classic...

  tried resetting the iPod, tried to run in the other mode keeping the home button and menu, press the button home-and play... None of them worked either

  When you "recharge sector" (which I assume means an adapter of any), are you using the docking cable that you use with the computer?  When you connect iPod from 2004 and 2007 iPod nano to the computer, you use the same USB docking cable used with the iPod in 2005?

  Is the power supply adapter ("hands") accomplice of old load powering FireWire supported, not USB load?  Accessories older load use FireWire instead of USB charging, which has a different voltage and uses different "pins" on the dock connector.  An iPod from 2005 (probably a 5th generation "video" iPod) to connect to the computer via a USB port, but it can recharge using the USB or FireWire power.

  If you can confirm that the port host USB cable to connect the iPod in 2005 is good, my guess is that the 2005 iPod dock connector will not properly connect to USB power.  It can be worn or damaged.  Therefore, it does not connect to the USB port on the computer.  However, it always connects to FireWire, so she received the adapter (which feeds the FireWire).

  Use a flashlight to look inside the iPod dock connector, to visually check for damage, corrosion, dust or debris.

• iPod Classic not recognized whan connected to iTunes and related issues

  Whenever I connect my iPod classic to iTunes (Windows 10) is not recognized. iTunes then freezes after awhile of trying, it is recognized by iTunes. You can see everything on the iPod, but you cannot synchronize. Then I have to restore the iPod, but you can not recharge music etc. as the sync box has been ticked in the recent update. Then you can charge all your music which takes about 8 hours. WHY! Is this because Apple won't use their classic iPod more or what.

• iTunes freezes when iPod Classic is connected

  Today, I put music on my iPod Classic 160 gb... the files transferred and I just change some information in iTunes at the same time and iTunes froze and then I had to reboot the computer... now two things happen:

  1. the music on my iPod has been cleared of her. All my music is still on my computer/iTunes works fine

  2. when I connect the classic iPod to my computer, rather than recognize the device and let me put music on the iPod, iTunes hangs and I have to force it quit.

  The iPod appears in the Finder as a connected device, but iTunes implode everytime I connect the iPod. Help?

  Edit: Just went to the part of the iPod... on the second screen it says 81.5 used Go, 67.3 'About' free... and then below that under songs and artists etc it says just 0. If something hit irrelevant... is there a way to format just the iPod without using iTunes to do?

• 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.

• iPod Classic disconnection as soon as I connect it

  Hi all, I have an iPod Classic 160 GB. I recently changed my computer and I have encountered a few problems since.

Sometimes iTunes displays a message on my iPod can be damaged, but I'm not sure what I can do about it...

• iPod classic. PC I have had all my music on died. can I connect iPod to my new Mac Office and store the music on the iPod in the cloud?

  I have an iPod classic 5th generation which has all my music on it. I had an old office that was on original music and he's dead. Now, I have a Mac desktop and other products, apple, iPhone, apple tv, Mac laptop, etc.  How can I get the music from classic iPod in the cloud so I can access it on all my other devices?

  Ideally, you have a backup of your user data from your old computer, including your iTunes data, and you can transfer data from iTunes on your Mac.

  By design, iTunes sync is generally in one direction, from the iTunes library on your computer to the iPod.  You cannot use iTunes to transfer files of song from iPod to computer, with the exception of songs purchased on the iTunes Store (you can also re - download on iTunes Store free of charge).  However, there are methods and third party utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like 'ipod music transfer', you should get a few useful links.  Once the files of the song on the drive of your Mac, add them to your current iTunes library.

  If you want to make your library iTunes music accessible to other computers and devices (compatible), you own, you need to subscribe to Match iTunes (or Apple's music) gives you a library music to iCloud.

  And since you are using a Mac now, don't forget TSF function built-in Time Machine an external drive, allows you to save all your data automatically.  (iPods are not intended for backup data iTunes).

• iPod Classic does not appear in iTunes

  My macbook release 10.9.5. iTunes (version 12.1) does not recognize my iPod classic Model # MB147LL version 1.2.2PC. I tried to reboot, reset, update, but it will not recognize to sync the iPod. My computer recognizes the iPod but not iTunes.

  The latest version of iTunes (12.5.1) should work on OS X 10.9.5.  Is there a reason that you are using an older version of iTunes.  A classic iPod should work with even older versions of iTunes, but there may be a problem with the specific version you have (fixed in a later version).

  If update does not help (or if you don't want to update iTunes), given that the iPod is recognized by the system, it seems to have a data connection.  Try to put the iPod in Disk Mode.

  How to put your iPod in disc - Apple Support mode

  Before you connect iPod, stop (power off) MacBook and disconnect all the USB devices.  Plug the MacBook power adapter (so it does not work on battery).  Startup MacBook, launch iTunes and connect the iPod (in disc Mode) on a USB direct on MacBook, by himself.

  If he picks up iTunes, it should invite you to do a restore with a message on the "recovery."  This erases the iPod, so if you're OK with that (because the content of the iPod is in your iTunes library), do the restore.  If all goes well, the iPod appears in iTunes (normally) after the restoration.

• IPod Classic reeked havoc on my iTunes!  Help!

  Can someone help PLEEEEEAASSSSE?

  I kept my iTunes library on an external hard drive Lacie for recent years.  From time to time I simply opened my iTunes library, music new dump in and re - sync my iPod classic.  A week ago, I did this and got an error during the synchronization.  The iPod is really old, almost complete, but still works.  Nevertheless, I had to stop the sync, restore the iPod and regain sync.  I did it and everything was fine... or so I thought.

  A night or 2 later I went to play a song on my iPod and noticed he wasn't there.  In fact, a very important (and random) part songs were gone from the iPod.   I went into my iTunes library to check and found a large number of songs with the red exclamation points.  I am aware of what that means and has been able to reconnect broken links which gave me about 200 songs which did not work.  The rest seems to be completely DISAPPEARED from my library.  If I go into the files of the album all that remains album files work... NO SONG NO FILES.  I did a spotlight search of title on the HDD for the songs and nothing.  What the * happened?  Miss me him more than 2000 songs.  Very random too.   Some albums have half songs left, a few 1 or 2, some not at all.

  Even weirder, is that if I connect to my iTunes library that sits right on my macbook (which is much smaller, but it shares some of the same songs) on a song/artist will play for that whole part of the alphabet.  For example, the song "Blue Sky" of The Allman Bros plays almost each piece separately in the section "A" of my library.  We go to a Beck song for all the songs of 'B' and so on.  Something bad happened?

  It could be my madness, but I swear yesterday as he tried everything to flow back to the previous libraries to change my main media folder location, which for a second that I did something that made all these songs to work again.  While I had that on the screen, I selected all the good work tracks and thrown on a flash drive to dump if all goes well in to my iTunes corrupt and all library set. I did, and none of the tracks that I've just spilled on the flash drive appeared.  A bunch of other tracks were there, but they were the songs that I didn't need to fix.

  I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!

  HELP PLEASE!

  Since this problem noticing, you have restarted your Mac?

  iTunes, media synchronization is from iTunes library to iPod, so it is unlikely that the iPod "reeked havoc" on your iTunes library.  More likely, there was (existing but undiscovered) on your external drive and sync data corruption caused the problem on the iPod (a week ago).

  Run disk utility, select the disk volume (indented under the player) in the disk utility sidebar.  Click first aid.  You can also do the first aid with the drive selected in the sidebar, but a problem is more likely to be detected by checking the volume in this case.  You can also check the internal drive of the MacBook.

  You use Time Machine to backup your user data?  If this isn't the case, you are using other backup methods, such as cloning?

• Apple and iPod Classic music please help

  Hello

  I have an iPod classic which I use for a number of speakers, I am owner and you use in my car.

  I am able to download music from Apple's music in my iTunes and then sync with my iPod Classic? This will allow me to use Apple music with my iPod Classic?

  Any input would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Songs downloaded from the Apple music streaming service subscription have DRM (copy protection) which prevents loading on iPod (except iPod touch).  The computer or device must have an Internet connection to check your subscription music from Apple.

• My iPod Classic retains a break himself

  My iPod Classic keeps pausing itself randomly while I'm listening to music. I had this problem before, and it is fixed using different headphones. However, I'm tired of having to buy new headphones (I use headphones to Apple, which is said by the way) whenever this problem arises. Is there something wrong with the headphone jack, and if so can I do something about it?

  A sensor tells the iPod there is a plug in the headphone jack.  Maybe it becomes defective and sometimes does not see that the headphones are connected, so the iPod stops playing.

  If it's a hardware problem, there are accessories that connects to the dock connector, to provide a separate audio output.  Here is an example

  Sound quality is supposed to be improved (compared to the standard headphone output).  And you get a reading on the cable remote.
