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.

    How can I make sure that my library of music on my Ipod Classic is not lost forever, if it breaks down?

    Back it up.

    Your music library should never exist only on your iPod.  It must be present on a computer in iTunes, and to be sure it must be saved on an external drive also.

    If your library no longer exists on your computer for whatever, reason, you need to extract the iPod.

  • 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.

  • What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were delete

    What is the order of the removal of the songs to an iPod Classic syncing > somehow my laptop has started the process of synchronization without my knowledge and removed approximately 2,000 songs of my iPod classic.  How can I identify which were deleted songs?  I always manually move files to prevent this.  I'm on Windows 10.

    Has no way to know that...

    If your library iTunes music fits on the storage space of 160 GB of your iPod classic, you just set to automatically sync your entire library of music.  Then, it won't matter which has been removed and which do not get deleted, because your iPod music library is the same as your library iTunes music.  And iTunes it keeps this way, every time your iPod connection (or click sync , if already connected).

    If you don't want "everything" in your iTunes library on your iPod (understandable), you can create a playlist in your iTunes library with all the songs you want on the iPod.  Then, set to automatically synchronize the playlist to iPod.  Instead of manually managing iPod, you manually manage playlist in your iTunes library.  The iPod has no need to be connected.  The next time you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected), iTunes will update the iPod with the same changes.  The big advantage is, if something happens like what you describe, or needs to restore iPod (erased) or even if break you your iPod (and get a new), need you a few mouse clicks to solve the problem.  Just set it up to sync the same playlist once again, which exists in your library iTunes (not only on the iPod).

    You can post back for more information about how to use automatic synchronization to do what you want more easily, go ahead.

  • need stop synchronization before finishing to avoid ipod classic remove

    I've updated to itunes version 12.5.1, as well as Windows 10.  If I let my ipod classic finish syncing, everything on the ipod is removed.  So I have to restore the ipod in disk mode so that itunes recognizes the ipod and avoid itunes gel settings.  I found the only way to keep my music is to stop synchronization before it ends or the entire contents of the ipod is removed, and I'll have to go through the process of restoring ipod to factory settings again.  During synchronization, I disable the Windows 10 firewall and anti virus as Apple support told me that it could interfere with itunes.  What is - this with the finishing of sync that removes my ipod?

    It's weird...  Hard drive it is possible to the iPod becomes unreliable and is damaged during the synchronization process.  What happens if you set it up to only synchronize a small number of songs, instead of "all"?  For example, on the settings screen of music from iPod in iTunes, rather than choose to synchronize the entire musical library, choose the option to synchronize playlists, artists, albums, and genres, and select only a SINGLE album.  These songs always get deleted at the end of synchronization?

  • I called Amazon to try to recover the serial number of my old iPod classic two weeks ago, and they gave me a kind of account; They pronounce it account 'seen - It '.

    I called Amazon to try to recover the serial number of my old iPod classic two weeks ago, and they gave me a kind of account; They pronounce it account 'seen - It '. I don't have to ask how, because I thought I knew, but I was wrong. Would what type of account be? And how it's spelled? The name of the account is a tiny s followed a 7-digit number. (Of course I will not type the numbers.)

    I would go to a forum for Amazon, because they can be better equipped to answer a question on their system. If synchronize you the device with iTunes, the number can be there in the backup section.  Find the serial number of your Apple - Apple Support product

  • IPod Classic compatible with EU Boom 2 via the Jack audio 3.5 mm?

    As far as I know, the sixth Gen iPod Classic should, theoretically, work with the EU Boom 2 via 3.5 mm audio cable "male-male". Can anyone confirm their experience that this is the case?

    I have no experience with that specific product, but if it has a standard (cable) analog audio input auxiliary iPod headphones (and more), is a standard analog audio output.

  • 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?
