I pod classic latest IOS but can't access at this time 30gb memory
Ipod classic stuck in locked mode. Screen is on lock icon next to pause/play icon
battery shows full, but I have my doubts
lock control is off but there is no response anywhere
iPod classic
FYI - iPod classic does not run iOS. The only iPod that runs iOS is iPod touch.
Make sure the Hold switch is on the OFF position (no orange showing on switch). If that does not make the on-screen lock symbol go away, do a Reset (restart) on the iPod

If you are unable to do a Reset, what happens when you connect the iPod to a computer running iTunes?

Thank you Kenichi Watanabe, this iPod is special as it was a git from my wife on our 40th Anniversary 91/2 years ago. I was doing the reset with incorrect instructions. Now my concern is how to keep the battery alive. Thanks again.

A 30GB iPod would be a 5th gen iPod (or older), which is around 10 years old (or older). The battery may be worn out, and in need of replacement.
