ipod classic problems
I have 2 Ipod classics older ones 6 or 7 years old one 120 gb and the other a 160 gb have the latest updates and restored them with apples help which they wouldn't do till they helped me thru it. I have the Sony tune tray and the Ipods will stop playing the songs and skip thru 4 5 6 songs then start playing again, the title of the song is there just no sound it varies different amount of time it starts happening. The radio works when this does happen, I know its not the radio I swapped it out with a new one. Sometimes on a ride when ignition is turned off then on it will stay on playlist but most of the time not. Any one else have this happen? and correct it or are these two toast

never an issue.
might want to take a look at the USB connection and the adapter connection. Take them apart, clean them with a foam tipped swab and alcohol.
Also take a pair of pliers and GENTLY squeeze the USB ends of the adapter to tighten it up.
Also to determine if it's the connector inside, plug your iPod into the USB connection on the front of the unit.

Its not a skip its just quits playing and then will show the next song for a few seconds till it stops after 5 or 6 songs then it might play or not which I have to switch it off to restart. The connections are clean on the plugs since it is a new unit, the ipods are old and I do have a lot of vibration from the big cam. They work fine in our cages and when the bike isnt runnig. I think I will try a nano. Thanks iron cross

I am having the same issue with my Nano. I set it for a particular playlist and everything works well, until I restart the bike and it jumps back to the master list. Anyone have a remedy for this?
