[QUOTE="CosmicDancer, post: 1024076, member: 148720"] I own an 80gb ipod classic, not sure which version, that I bought I guess about 2 years ago. I've never had any problems with it at all and have really enjoyed owning it. I have all of my music, about 33,500 songs worth, stored on an external hard drive. I used to use itunes on my old desktop pc but am now using my new 13' macbook pro that I bought last September. Just a couple of days ago, I wanted to put a couple of new albums that I had just bought on my iPod. I added them to itunes with no problem at all. When I tried to put them on my ipod, itunes froze after importing a few of the songs. I thought it might be time to restore my ipod and start from scratch. Now that I've done that, I'm trying to refill my ipod and while I am able to get some music on it, it always freezes up on me after a random amounts of songs are loaded not allowing me to get all of my music on the ipod. The side panel on itunes just keeps looking like it is trying to load and eventually, I get the beach ball. I try to eject the ipod and that won't work either. I end up having to just pull out the usb cable without ejecting. I use the manual sync option as I like to control what all goes on my ipod and I have way more gb of music on itunes than my 80gb ipod will hold. I have tried doing this on both my mac and my pc with the same freeze results on both. Is this an issue with the new version of iTunes? I am still able to get music on my iPod, but if the freezing continues, it will take me weeks to fill the stupid thing up! I am very frustrated!! I am a total music nerd and really want to fill my ipod up again with my favorite albums! Anybody found a solution yet? Any help will be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
