Film format compatible Ipod Nano 3rd generation

I tried to load purchased movies and videos on an old iPod nano 3rd generation (8 GB), but so far, all were rejected and unable to play or even synchronize.

Could someone kindly tell me what file formats play on the 3rd generation iPod nano, and know if I can buy a bad quality on iTunes store movie that will play on the nano?

Thanks in advance, I've been on this for days now.

  • iPod nano (3rd generation) used to synchronize with Itunes on a XP computer

    I have an Ipod nano 3rd generation that seems to have stopped. The only thing I see on the screen is the apple logo. I tried to reset a dozen times (at least) and installed the latest version of Itunes, but nothing helped. I do not see the ipod appears as a device anywhere on my computer. I downloaded SyncToy 2.1, but when I tried to install it I got the following error message:

    Component Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 Core Components could not install with the following error message:
    "A fatal error occurred during the installation of Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 Core Components".

    The following components were not installed:
    -Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 Provider Services

    The following components failed to install:
    -Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 Core Component

    Any suggestions?

    Using MS Sync something won't solve your problem. Normally, you need iTunes to transfer music/videos etc. to and from iPods, phones etc. keys. Or you can buy the 3rd plugins for WMP, such as MGTEK Dropsi.

    Your problem is that the iPod nano seems to be frozen, I would try to leave a post on the Apple site as its more a problem for them than Ms. You need to find on how to make a plant of re - put in order for UN - gel you Nano.

    See you soon,.

    There is no other program to "swap" a 3rd gen iPod nano.

  • My audiobook songs will not consecutively play on my iPod nano (3rd generation).

    I put my audiobooks in playlist and then when I play my playlists, each song is on my iPod as '1 1', even if I went through and edited all to be _ in the County total song.  I'm looking to find how I can play an audiobook on my iPod directly through without having to scroll down after each "song" to the other.

    Thank you!

    Audio books isn't songs, so if you want that they act like the songs on iPod, you may need to change their type of media to music.  If you want to try this, it would be better to create a list of reading (with audio books), while it is easy to find and to change their return later.  This playlist is only to handle media Type; You must use it to sync to the iPod.  Put all of the audio books, you want to do this on playlist.  Select the playlist in iTunes and in the playlist, do a select all.  Right-click on the selection and do a Get Info. In the info window, go to the Options tab.  Change the media type to the music.

    These audio books now appear in your iTunes like songs rather than audio books.  When you put them on iPod into playlists, they must play successively as making songs.

    (To change their return, select playlist with songs "audiobook" in iTunes, select all, and then Media type back to Audiobook using Get Info.

  • My iPod nano 2nd generation gets disk errors after installing iTunes?

    I use my iPod nano 2nd generation for... Wow little almost 10 years now and of course is not as sensitive, a little laggy sometimes, battery life isn't as good but still never had real problems with it that can be repaired by a reset. Well not until now and I have not really money to spend to get a new, in particular the fact that practically it still works fine on his own, just that I can not add or remove pieces of her more.

    The problem

    It seems that the computer has trouble reading the device. Whenever I plug my iPod nano 2nd generation USB in my laptop (Windows 10), which has some sort of interaction with it freezes. For the moment I plug in, programs such as Winamp, iTunes, File Explorer (if I click my computer-> try to right click on the drive, that says all F: drive instead of the usual name recognized as "My iPod."), the Device Manager when I try to turn Apple iPod USB Driver and the small icon in the system tray when you try to eject the drop-down list no longer appears, all these programs themselves just freeze and unresponsive until I unplug the device. In Event Viewer, the moment where I plug it, it gets spammed by looping errors to:

    Error: The device, \Device\Harddisk1\DR21, has a bad block.

    ATTENTION: An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk1\DR21 during a paging operation.

    So, basically, it seems that the computer is blocked just not try to read and recognize the device, which means that I can't really do anything with it. The iPod itself seems to work fine, I can hear songs, recharge the battery and other things, earlier I can't add or remove pieces of her.

    Stuff leading up to it

    A year or two before, I used to manage the ipod via itunes (a relatively old version of time too I guess since I almost never update) until I formatted my laptop some time ago and never bored computer reinstall itunes. Since then, I really didn't need to change anything to my iPod and just use Winamp (my default music player) to the add/remove songs when I needed to. Today, I decided to install iTunes because there are some things that winamp cannot do as add embedded lyrics and also winamp blurs the sorted list of the song. Since then, after you have installed the new iTunes, start freezing and program I get the problems described above. There might be a chance that iTunes was not the real culprit and the disc was already beginning to get corrupted or something somehow, but I can't think of anything that's happened before this problem started.

    I tried many things

    • Uninstalled iTunes and all the other stuff related to the installation as pie, Apple Mobile Device Support... .etc
    • Reinstall the device driver USB Apple iPod. When I turn it off (Plug in iPod-> iPod poster 'do not disconnect'-->--> Device Manager driver right click-> disable-> Device Manager freezes up-> unplug ipod-> Device Manager-> thaws plug ipod in) ipod becomes simply the State of charge. Steps to reinstall is the same (need to plug and unplug).
    • Reset iPod in now the Center button + menu button.
    • Will then resetting operation rewind + Centre button iPod diagnostic mode. It is not a test disc hard because I guess nano doesn't have a disc hard just flash ram. Anyway, when I select SDRAM QScan he only says: "SDRAM OK." NAND_SPEC gives "NandLBA = 1982464". Flash gives Checksum "Checksum is 0x26AF".
    • Wanted to try as described here to check for disk errors, but cannot because the computer cannot correctly recognize and explore freezes if I right click. I tried using 'chkdsk f:' in the command prompt, but that seems to hang as well.
    • Switches mode disc reset ipod then now Center + play button. Then connect the laptop... etc, same problem.

    It's a pretty old device, so it seems that support because it is very rare. I didn't install iTunes could screw up the device that it is intended to support and do anything as permanent as this one.

    You must exclude a faulty USB, cable anchorage, try another, or using your power with another Apple device cable, to confirm that it works correctly.

    Otherwise, your troubleshooting seems complete.  If that's what you've done for disc Mode

    How to put your iPod in disc - Apple Support mode

    and connection to your computer causes this issue General 'freeze' with multiple processes, the iPod has possibly a hardware problem.  Flash storage eventually.  Or it can be a problem on the logic board of the iPod.

    I suggest try to reformat the iPod using Windows, as if it were a USB flash drive.  But you can only do if the system hangs when you connect iPod.

    NOTE: If you find a way to reformat iPod using Windows, use FAT32 as the disc format.  If there is an option to do a quick format, do a full format instead.  Once the process is complete, the iPod is totally blank.  You do restore using iTunes (if you are prompted or not), to the embedded iPod software.

  • iPod Nano 6th generation works with ElCapitan?

    IPod Nano 6th generation works with El Capitan?

    I can't seem to connect to iTunes 12 to download music?

    My nano gen 5 works.  And my iPod 3rd gen since about 2003 "classic" works with the latest OS X and iTunes.

    If you did not for a long time, remember to close the Mac (power off) and start it again.  iTunes has some background processes that identify when an iPod is connected, and they may stop working properly if the Mac worked without reboot for awhile.  Also, if you can, try to use another USB cable, where one of the uses has become defective.

    Look at the screen of the iPod when you connect it?  What did he say or do, just after the connection (if any)?

  • iPod Nano 6th generation of devices

    I have an iPod Nano 6th generation. I would like to continue to use it to play music during the night while I SLEEP. I got an iHome unit, but who has just died. I have two conditions for a new device. The device must plug into a wall outlet and charge the iPod Nano.

    Can someone suggest a new device?

    There are two separate functions here.  Charging the iPod and speakers are active.  The iPod has two connectors for audio output and power, so do not force yourself to a single device.

    Use a common USB adapter, (that plugs into the wall), as the type that comes with the iPhone or other device and standard USB cable to charge the battery of the iPod.  Connect common self-powered speakers, as the type that people use computers, making headphone iPod.  That is how I use my iPod touch on the bedside table.

  • How can I make my iPod Nano (7th generation) read albums in the correct order?

    I just bought a new Ipod Nano (7th generation) and synchronized my entire library.

    Now I want to listen to an album, but it seems that this system is unable to sort the pieces by number.

    Some are in good order, while other aren´t and when you listen to an album, it's really the most

    annoying as I ve ever had with any mp3 player.

    I looked for a possible system behind this and everything that I could find was, which instead of the title number the

    titles are sorted by add date. Is it possible to fix it?

    In addition, a way to contact support directly without having to CALL them?

    Sorry, but with a system that I had to pay € 150, this shouldn´t certainly happen...

    For a general context, see grouping of tracks in albums . Albums play in the wrong order when metadata numbers or sort of disk are set inconsistently. Playlists in iTunes can also be set to play in a different order than shown that can sometimes be confusing. Album by artist upward is usually the most sensitive order and can be copied to the reading order by right-clicking on the name of the playlist in the sidebar once you have set up.

  • Bad restore iPod Nano 4th generation

    This morning, I tried to restore my iPod Nano 4th generation.

    Everything seemed to go in the right direction: I followed the procedure, iTunes has downloaded the most recent software, but after a few seconds an error occurred (order of 1400, in fact I don't remember the exact number).

    From that moment, iTunes no longer see my iPod, and it is present only as a generic drive in the office.

    I tried to restore the disc mode, but iTunes doesn't see my iPod.

    Can I do something to fix this?

    Thank you!

  • When you try to restore my iPod nano 7th generation what it asks for a password how to find / get around it?

    MY 7th generation nano has his music to wipe and start again.  I tried to restore it in the air several times because it won't let me not in reason to ask for a password to allow this. the password is not my iTunes password. can anyone help? I use an iMac.

    Once the iPod appears in iTunes, it shouldn't be a problem with a password for an iPod nano 7th generation.  If you see a window pop up asking for a password, I think that it is a request for authorization from the Mac OS.  It is not directly related to the iPod or iTunes.  He asks your password for the account of the user admin (for Mac), as when you install the new software.
