Sir,

if I was not on Rockbox I would not be posting here
the question means if i connect the unit being on Rockbox
the computer dos not recognise it

so each time I want to download music I need to switch to the Apple firmware first

[saratoga]

Which iPod classic do you have?  What version of rockbox are you running?  What happens when you try to use Rockbox USB mode? 

[Den]

Classic last gen. modified with a I-Quad module and a long lasting battery

when connecting to a computer if the unit is in Rockbox mode nothing appears
the unit can be recharged but that's all

What version of rockbox are you running?

Normally people here use rockbox.

I think he meant to do USB transfers..

Did you set this to charge only?

If you have a 6G you need to be running a recent development build with those flash adapters.

this is my version

Version: 88ecaf2b8c-221126

I do not see the ''USB  mode'',  the settings stop just before at: ''USB Keypad Mode''

I did not know about this USB mode setting but if it is not in ''general settings system'' where is it ?

[Den]

set USB HID settings to off

and it is now working !

Thanks to both of you for your help
