ipod classic

Hello, I have some issues with my ipod pod classic 6/7th gen and ipod nano 5th gen. I am trying to creating media files, "mp4, m4v, or mov" files that have more then one audio file, and working subtitles. The ipod classic has 3 different options that can change a video’s playback. They are...

So I've been trying out bluetooth transmitters for this iPod, and I'm having mixed results. I use Airpods 3. First device, connected by 30 pin, sort of worked, but was soo loud and I couldn't turn the volume down. Refunded for that. Second device, connected by AUX, which I'm using right now...

I still use my classic iPod and have been never able to find out what this accessory is for, the one circled in red:

I currently have a working Silver iPod Classic 6 Gen 160GB “DVT”. How much might it be worth?

I have the last generation of iPod classic 160G, and it stores my entire music library. I am using it as a Digital Source device in my home Hi-Fi system. Ipod's scroll-wheel control is quite convenient and fast when browsing music, but I have to hold it in my hand if I want to manipulate it. I...

I've been a member of MacRumors for quite some time now, but never thought to share my work here. I Thought you all might be interested in my most recent project, an iPod Classic 5th Generation that I have added Flash Storage, a larger battery, Bluetooth and Wireless Charging! The iPod can...

I've upgraded my Mac and now have a new M1 running Big Sur, and now I've realised that iTunes has been removed. I also have an old iPod Classic. On my old Mac I would manually manage the music, I'd copy something into iTunes, move it to the iPod and then the iTunes version might well get...

It would certainly be a pleasant surprise to see some sort of non-Touch homage to the original iPod this year. A click wheel just can't be replaced and it's uncomfortable to control a touchscreen device when working out/commuting/just having it in your pocket. Headphone jack adapters are a...

I have an iPod Classic that is continually giving me the "Use iTunes to Restore" error message. Model MB029C 80GB I have restored it using iTunes a few times and done a partial reload of my songs but the process repeats. After a restore, it will play normally for several hours and then give...

Hey, I just bought a 'for parts' 3rd generation iPod on eBay for a good price, (I've always wanted to own this model, and I am fairly confident that I can fix it, since I think it just needs a HDD swap). I have done it before with an iPod photo, which turned out just to have the data cable...

Hi, I am a new member here and would like to seek some help for my Ipod. I had an old Ipod Video and recently when I took it out and tried to turn it on, it showed sad face. After some research, I knew it could be the hard drive that had been dead. I then found some info to use an sd card to...

Hey everyone. I got my hands on an iPod 5G (iPod Video), replaced the battery, put in a new SD Card, and it’s been great. The interface is just dated compared to other Apple products so I’m trying to update it to look more like Apple Music. I’ve gone through some wacky lengths to achieve this...

Hey everyone... I have an old 160gb iPod Classic that I'd like to use as a vault for all my Audible purchases, one that can actually play the books. Is this possible? If so, any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I had the misfortune of upgrading to Catalina and have been frozen for the past two hours or so trying to sync my iPod Classic. iTunes is no more so it syncs in a Finder window, even though the sync option is in "Music". Anyway it's been rotating ceaselessly for a long time now with no change...

Hello guys! I decided to buy an unknown condition (which always means that it's broken) iPod Classic 5G 80GB. It looks good on the outside, the display has some black lines on the right, no big deal on the inside there's no HDD ribbon, has something that looks like a little bit of rust next to...

I recently replaced the 20GB hard drive in an iPod 4G clickwheel with an IDE to CF adapter, CF to SD card adapter, and a 128GB SDXC card. I also decided to replace the original battery because, why not?, it's 15 years old. But I'm now wondering if the battery replacement was necessary. On the...

Hi all, Hoping to get some expert advice here on a topic I have no doubt some of you will be sick of reading. I've searched and searched but can't find any sort of solution. I've got an mSATA 128GB SSD, which is formatted to FAT32 and definitely works. This is mounted on an mSATA to ZIF...

I'm trying to downgrade an iPod classic 160GB (Late 2009) from firmware 2.0.4. Can anyone help? I lost some key functionality with the upgrade to 2.0.4 and I'm trying to see if I can downgrade to when I had more (extension cables and such). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks I'm using...

Hi, My iPod ( 160GB) plays no longer stereo, it's not the headphones, I discovered that after I tried several new ones… All of a sudden I only hear a mono sound, what can it be? Thanks for your kind help!

Recently (in the last 6 months), my iPod classic Video (30GB) has stopped powering up when I start my car. I leave the iPod plugged in via USB and this has been working fine, turning on and playing my tunes with the car stereo. 6 months ago this stopped happening. Instead, I have to now lean...
