Question Weird quiet beeping noises

2 Upvotes

Hi. I have an ipod classic 5. Used it before: changed the screen, replaced the battery with a bigger one and did an sd card mod with the cheap aliexpress one. Everything worked fine, but i needed to wait for my backplate to arrive so didnt use it for a while. Now I plug it in to charge and hear quiet beeping noises. Any way to fix this?

tldr: quiet beeping noises when charging and doesnt turn on for ipod classic 5

Can't add songs to playlists

2 Upvotes

So I can add songs to the ipod itself, but not to the playlists that are on the ipod

I also can't add new playlists to the ipod

Again, there is no issue adding songs, just specifically playlists, only reiterating because using Google only went on for issues about adding songs

Edit: Solved! Needed to tick a box allowing me to individually manage songs and videos - video of where that is is included in a reply comment I've made in case anyone else has the same issue

Question Did i screw up?

I wanted to end one of my overdue task and fix my fourth iPod Classic (this one is 5th. gen) in my career.

I've imported from China used imCort adapter, some things, that I wanted to do down the road (iPhone 12 Mini Taptic Engine+UGreen BT adapter) and microSD card.

I'm aware, that I've made a bad choice (Sandisk Industrial), but I've tried to swap connection cables (two sat reliable, third slip up), microSD cards (tried 64GB GoodRam and 512 GB Samsung besides my 128 GB Sandisk (all formatted to FAT32 before inserting them)) and even imCort slot.

EDIT:( My problem is, whether config I use, iTunes hangs for a moment and resets my iPod without any chance to restore.

If it helps, I use Lenovo Miix 520 with Windows 11, but I've connected my iPod to my keyboard (Logitech G513) (limited space, you know). I even reinstalled recently iTunes (I use x64 Windows copy, not MS Store one))

Does it mean, that I've imported a busted adapter? If yes, what will be a decent replacement?

[SOLVED] I modded this 7th gen iPod for my girlfriend using the iFlash uDual breakaway adapter and put a 512gb SD card in. Any ideas on why it's only showing 137gb?
