okay guys i have a problem...my ipod classic ah actually its my mom given by my aunt but im the one who using it so im putting some songs there then the ipod just get lag so sometimes its happening and so i just wait to get lowbatt then im charging it but its 7 hours its not charging its only said "please wait very low battery"the apple logo just showed..so is it the battery or the hard disk coz if its hard disk im doomed..if its battery its fine coz its replaceable right??
o have the 160 GB i pod and it did that to me last time my cousin did something to it and he fixed it somehow but when i get it from him il sure tell you
Seems to me like your hard drive is busted. Same thing happened to my friends hard drive, so I just replaced it with my old ipod classic 30GB hard drive and it worked, it's down to 30 GB but it works for the most part, i didn't really mind, I use my Iphone for music anyways. I just wish i could get a 32 GB Iphone, mine's 16 and so is my 4. :(
@stoopidstories Try letting it sit for a couple of days and then turn the lock on. Then connect to your computer and restore with iTunes. I'm actually trying it right now. My 80gig has been epic fail for about a month. Piece of Poop! I'll post later to let you know if it works.
i have an ipod classic 120gb and one time it was working fine then a couple of days ago the battery ran down and i charged it for more than 4 hours and it got to about half way but ran back down the next day and it i tried charging it after that but all it says is "charging, please wait" but it doesn't charge.If you unplug it it says"connect to power"then shouts off.Nothing i do works, i left it charging for a couple of hours and still nothing . If any one can help it would be of great help.
@aanniico what do you guys do to your ipods? chuck them up in the air? mine works fine had it for over a year and droped it several times, still works great!
Thanks alot for your help. I was also getting the same problem. after watching that video and your comment my ipod nano came into live.. :) oggg guy u r awsum. May God bless you.

@deago1297 take it to an apple store, ask for the manager, throw it at him, jump up and down like a child yelling fix it! haha but seriously take it to an apple store, theyll fix it, but not for free, unless u have a waranty
@alikroun7 I have the same problem and i have tried this soloution more than 15 times. I keep getting an error code saying my ipod is corrupt and i havnt dropped it or had gotten it wet or damaged it in any way. any one?
Starting the ipod in Disk Mode (holding the center button and play/pause button during boot) does work. The ipod will then open and fully boot into disk mode and your PC will recognize the ipod.
do this,first connect ur ipod to computer, press hold key then press play and center button, then its goes to disk mode, then u can restore it from itune
open it up and then disconect the hard drive and reconnect it then put ur ipod back together and it should start i figured this out after trying to reset it many times with no luck,thought id open it up and have a look tried that and it worked for me :)
(if ur not sure how to open it there is a vid on utube how to replace the battery DONT remove the batt just follow my instructions)
Help i have a classic 80g with audio problems. left head phones get the sound but the right barely and it gives off a high pitch squeal any suggestions!!
Download the firmware for your iPod the same version then look for a video on how to let iTunes read your iPod the hold shift while holding click restore search for your firmware select it and wait this should work just wait but at the end your ganna have sync all your songs again well that is if you want them
my ipod is not working eigher! mine goes to the "apple" and then goes to the message X error on it but if someone can help me, that would be very nice^^
I had that, until i saw this website saying to basically to restart it and then whilst its restarting, hold it in your left hand and bash it really hard with your right. it worked, put, i then imedietly connected to my computer and 'restored' it and now its bummed :(
this happend to me what u do is when see the apple hold left button and middle button then a screen should come up just look around that this worked for me
I think u need a new intelligent board froe ur iPod. They are about $100 and to replace ur intelligent board it is not that hard. If ur iPod is still under the warenty u can still contact apple and get ur ipod fixed, but if not get someone u know to fix it or look up how to on youtube
mine i was puting in new music and all of a sudden it turns off and can;t turn it back on i plug it into the computer my computer restiger it but itunes don;t and still turn off when i do plug it or recharge it
to fix this hold the play/pause and the select button for a few seconds. This will put the ipod into disk mode. Go to itunes and restore the ipod. Thats how i fixed mine.
k well at the end it says hook up to power right/? so then plug it into ur comp. ur ipod will prob freeze but then jusst restart it! thats what I did...
All your ipods are fucked, like mine. I took mine apart today and discovered quite a bit...Finger prints and marker and such. Anyways the Hardrive which fucks everything up is by Toshiba, im currently ordering a usb cable for the hard drive itself so i can use it as an external hard drive. If it doesnt work then thats alot of money down the drain :(
I agree with u. My 80gb ipod used to work on my computer, now when I plug it in it will not show up. I can charge it in my car but it will not work on my computer or laptop.
man im having the same bullshit ass problem. this damn ipod just keeps restartin over and over endless. got me sittin here holdin my fuckin penis!! this is bullshit!!!

I Have Put My iPod Into 'Disk Mode' And Update + Restored My iPod, Yet It Says Rebooting In 11..10..9.. Then When It Goes Off, The iPod Doesn't Reboot It Just Keeps Restarting Again.. Any Help, Please Message Me =[
hook up the sync cord and a battery logo will appear to show that its charging. keep looking at ur ipod. it wont be long (about ten min. maybe) before the apple logo appears. as soon as that happens hold center play/pause to put your ipod back in disk mode. the itunes menu should now say that it senses an ipod in recovery mode. just press restore an let the magic happen. everything should be great again (sorry for the long post)
Just wondering, when you say "restore", does that mean it sets it back to the factory settings, or will your music and all your other stuff still be on there after the restore?
first just attach your ipod to your computer and hold down menu and center to reboot again (yes while its already rebooting) immediately after it reaches the apple logo hold down center and play/pause to put it into disk mode. then go to restore ipod in the itunes menu (your ipod should've appeared). while it's restoring your ipod, yank out the sync cord (trust me). just drain your battery while still in disk mode. when ur battery is finally drained, (continued)
yo sup, ok i've been workin with my ipod classic for three days trying to figure how to solve my same exact problem. did u update any apple software on your computer recently. if u did then that could also be part of the problem. with the new ipod classics they lock up and go into infinite restart loops after attempting to perform a simple sync.
I fixed my problem an i bet this will fix yours too..... (continued)
My ipod is doing the same thing, have you found an answer on how to fix this? I getting tired of this I don't know what to do. I've tryed restoring it to its original config. and did not work.

theyll just give u a new or refurbished ipod, and its free unless the warrantys over(in like a year or so), which in that case u will need to pay $60.
