• iPod classic you want to restore to the factory cannot remember the password

  I have two iPod classic I want to recycle. I don't remember the password that is associated with one of them. When I connect to iTunes and click on restore option, it asks for a password that I don't remember.

  Any suggestions for me?

  Thanks in advance!

  A classic iPod has an iTunes password not perform a restore.  I think he asks your password for the Mac admin user account.  Enter the password that you enter normally when you allow changes on your Mac, like installing new software.

• IPod classic has fallen and now ask restore

  Long story short, my ipod has fallen on the ground and immediately after that he was asked to restore through itunes. I connected it to my computer and itunes crashes completely and ask the screen of the ipod do not disconnect (as well) - I own an ipod classic 7th generation 160 GB I do not know if it's the hard drive makes or even battery issues to deal, but if anyone knows if I am able to do repair a large help - thanks

  Since this happened after a fall, it is more likely to be a problem with the hard drive.  Try to put the iPod in Disk Mode

  Put the iPod in disk - Apple Support Mode

  Then plug it into your computer running iTunes.  If iTunes picks it up, he may ask you to do a restore with a message on the "recovery."  Let the restoreiTunes.

  If the iPod does not go in drive Mode, or the restore fails, the hard disk of the iPod is likely to be defective.

• After the factory restore via itunes on pc on my ipod classic he said plug on sector finally now all I get is a picture of a charger and taken, it won't even load

  After restoring my ipod classic 4th generation 40 GB to factory settings via itunes on my pc the message plug to the charger to complete came I did it, but all I get is a picture of a charger and power socket, but it will not charge or do anything else

  The 4th generation iPod requires the connection to the USB adapter that comes with it to complete the restore process.  Another adapter Apple, like the one that comes with the iPhone or iPad, should also work.  Non-Apple power adapters may work fine for regular charging of the battery of the iPod, but often do not work for this particular use.  If you have a Mac with a FireWire port, and you have a FireWire cable, you can also get past this step by connecting the iPod to a FireWire port.  It is a peculiarity of design iPod 4th gen.

• 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 have a iPod Classic 30 GB. I have a new macbook pro and I managed to put my iPod, but now I can't synchronize my iTunes to iPod. What should I do next?

  iPod Classic does not sync with iTunes on MacBook Pro.

  If "reset" means you did a restore on it (to erase it), after the restoration, the iPod is set by default to use the parameter manually manage music and videos] .  If you expect not to sync automatically, you need to Sync music.

  Connect iPod and to find his button on the device to iTunes.  The screenshot below shows the left upper corner of the window of my iTunes, iPod button circled in red.

  

  Click this button to display the settings of the iPod summary screen in the iTunes window.  Along the left side, in the sidebar, under settings, click on music.  Parameters of music from the iPod screen to the right.  Check the box to Sync music.

  NOTE: For anyone else reading this, all the songs of the iPod that are not in your iTunes library will be lost.

  This enables automatic synchronization.  You can choose to synchronize your entire music library or a part of the selection .  Implement this screen as you want, and then click apply to sync iPod.  Further, iTunes automatically keeps iPod "in phase" with the changes in your music library (or the selected part of it), when you connect the iPod (or click sync , if already connected).

  If this isn't the problem, thanks for posting back with additional details about your situation.

• 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?

• iPod Classic recognized by iTunes but used to synchronize

  I just bought a refurbished iPod Classic (Genesis 6 160 GB). The iPod looks and works as if it was new. I connected the iPod on my laptop and iTunes recognizes it. However, when I try to sync the iPod, nothing happens. The load bar that say 'Start Sync' appears for a split second, then goes, and I get the prompt saying "iPod sync is complete." However, nothing synchronized. I restored the setting on the iPod and even made sure that I upgraded to the latest version of iTunes, with no luck. My computer is and has been authorized for iTunes and I even changed the name of my iPod in iTunes, as it was the name of my old iPod, to see if he has made all the difference. Don't know what to do here, especially since the classics are discontinued.

  Some iPod Classic s even if ongoing renovation have trouble recognizing a new computer. The previous owner probably plugged his iPod into his computer several times. Kind of like when you connect your phone to the computer for the first time, the phone and the computer synchronization together. Even if you restored the setting on the iPod, I try and take back to factory settings, if there is still this option. Hope this helps, good luck

• Cannot copy songs on ipod classic

  I recently found errors when you synchronize from itunes for my ipod to 6gen classic to my hp Windows 10.  When I connect to the start via USB, I get the message "of problems with the drive, the analysis to solve." then in itunes after initially connected and recognizing the device, I get errors for most / all of the songs with messages of unknown error-50 and -53.  When I select the device via windows Explorer, I get the message "Please insert a disk in (name of my ipod).

  I've performed the manual start and ran smartdata that gives these results:

  Retracts 206

  Reallocation 352

  Sectors pending 2

  Turn on/off hours 504

  start/stop 238

  current temp 32 c

  Temp min 14 c

  temp max 49 c

  I want to avoid the scan to fix the solution unless its my only hope - I had problems with the other USB storage after that

  This ipod is still salvagable?

  See corrupted iPod Classic. Overall stats doesn't seem too bad. A restore DFU or reformatting may be necessary to release the waiting areas. Make sure that Windows 10 is fully updated as some recent versions have raised false alarms that require analysis and difficulty when she is not necessary.

• Bad restore iPod Nano 4th generation

  This morning, I tried to restore my iPod Nano 4th generation.

  Everything seemed to go in the right direction: I followed the procedure, iTunes has downloaded the most recent software, but after a few seconds an error occurred (order of 1400, in fact I don't remember the exact number).

  From that moment, iTunes no longer see my iPod, and it is present only as a generic drive in the office.

  I tried to restore the disc mode, but iTunes doesn't see my iPod.

  Can I do something to fix this?

  Thank you!

  If you have not seen Windows Insider make sure you update to the latest version.

  Reset the device and connect it to the computer. Now, does show in iTunes?

  Try the DFU restore process described in corrupt iPod Classic.

• iPod classic is locked permanently and will not restart or reset.

  I had my iPod Classic (160GB) for about six years. I received as a Christmas gift in 2010. For the last two days, the "lock" symbol was flicker on and out, even when the switch is moved to the off position. I went to put it on today and it wouldn't respond. I plugged my headphones and the screen lit to show me the lock symbol was done again. I tried to reset the iPod, tried to restore and toggled the switch locking on and off tension several times but nothing does. I think I just need to take it into Apple and see if they can fix it or if I need to go and resign myself to the idea that I need to invest in a new iPod. Any ideas?

  Looks like you might need a new headphone jack and hold together switch. You could do it yourself or use a third party service center.
