ipod classic (4Gb) freezes itunes and explorer, and has no reset option in its menu's.
I've happily used it for more than 10 year, how can I completly reset it?
iPod Classic
Try DFU Restore:
Connect the device to the USB cable, press MENU+SELECT like a standard reset but keep holding for 12 seconds. The device should reboot as normal and then the screen should go blank. Now open iTunes and try to restore again.

I've read the solutions in the forum, of course.
I'm using a windows laptop with the latest version of itunes, Both that laptop and the old desktop instantly freeze their explorer when you connect the ipod. the second you unplug the ipod all goes on normal.
The ipod does have a rest setting's choise under the settings, but no choise to reset all. (tried that several times, only the settings for language etc are reset.
Problem is in the database that registers the files. In my car it stil plays most of the music, but it shows double names and those i have to skip manually.
Wel, I got it moving one way.
On an antique windows laptop i get the question: usb-disk is not formatted, format now? Yes was of course the question.
Now I can open it as a usb-device, but itunes does not recognise it als an Ipod.
Try Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer - Apple Support to set up sync selections.

Try starting your computer from a powered off state with the device already connected. Then see if iTunes will see it and be able to restore it.

No, did not work. After the login screen everything stays blank. when i unplug the ipod after a few minutes the laptop returns to it's normal self.
Ok! It's an Ipod again! Many thanks!
Now I only have to drag and drop the music into the ipod. (Won't sync automaticly )
