Ipod classic not responding

[crash457]

So I have an iPod classic and I generally leave it plugged into the truck. I've done this in my wife's Edge Sport with MFT and never had any issues.

However with the Raptor it seems that at least 3 times a week it will come up with "USB device has stopped responding" and when I unplug it the iPod is locked on the Ford screen and requires a reset to unlock it. I tried my wife's iPod and it does the same thing. I even did a full restore on the iPod and it did not fix the issue. It appears to be something related to Sync3.

Is anyone else having this issue? Do you know of a fix?

My guess crash is the iPod you're using is to outdated to work with sync 3 properly.

Well still having issues...even after trying two different iPod classics and even a brand new 128GB iPod touch. The dealer says that can't find anything wrong. Any ideas?

I'm not using any Apple products, but I thought I would just throw this out there. Are you using the v2.2 for Sync 3? Maybe they put something in there that would help you?

I do not have the V2.2. The dealer checked for software updates and said it was the newest version since V2.2 hasn't been officially released yet. I suppose when it gets rolled out, we'll see. In the meantime, they only advice the dealer had was to unplug the iPod every time I park the truck. That's a stupid solution, because it has to index every time I get back in.

As easy as it is to do the update yourself I think it would be worth a shot. Not sure what all improvements they made, but I haven't seen anything I don't like since I updated to v2.2 either.

I'm using a 5th gen iPod classic. I've had this happen once.
Another annoying thing I've found happening is when I start the truck, whatever track the iPod was playing will be on repeat.
Sync3 version 2.0. Have not tried using a different iPod. I can't stand using iTunes.

Dang, people are actually still using ipods in this day and age?!
