Unable to sync iPod with PC with "Error 50"

I had to restore my Ipod Classic. But now, when I try to sync it with my pc, there is always an error number 50, 5 or 10 minutes (at the maximum) during the sync.

iPod classic - restoring error 1675 Two months ago, I was perfectly able to listen to my old iPod classic. Yesterday, I got an error and a message that I should go to apple.com/support/ipod Here I am. I connected it to my mac and got this error: An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again. An unknown error occurred (1675). Can someone help me with this?

Ipod Classic Will Not Sync with iTunes My iPod Classic will no longer sync with iTunes on my Windows 10 PC. I am running the latest iTunes software version and using the correct iPod drivers. The settings show that the iPod is full of "other" content, leaving no room for anything else. I read this happens when the drive has become corrupted and needs to be restored. However, when I try doing just that, I receive a 1439 error message saying that my iPod cannot be restored. I've also tried pressing the center button and Menu button simultaneously, but that hasn't worked either. Is there any fix for all this, or is my iPod shot?

Error 50 means your device is not connecting with iTunes. To learn more, look up a video made before 2014 and see if there’s anything there. I’ve had the same problem with my iPod shuffle 2015. When you have a minute, tell me what iPod classic it is and I’ll try finding out how to sync.
