• iPod Nano 16 GB keeps resetting

  Hello!

  Strange things are happening.

  I have an iPod Nano 16 GB which works perfectly. I use iTunes on my regular computer and never had a problem.

  Today, iTunes tells me my iPod had to reset automatically, and all my music has apparently disappeared. I managed to get back on my computer with special software.

  I connected my iPod and I tried to put all the music, but he said it was full, even if it is EMPTY ('Other' is indicated under the full name in the toolbar).

  My guess is that all the music files are still on the iPod but not available when I want to listen to them, and iPod turns out to be empty...

  Then I ejected my iPod and it restarts AGAIN.

  He has never done before on this computer... I don't understand!

  Thanks for your help

  The iPod may have data corruption.  Try to do a restore of the iPod using iTunes. This erases the iPod, reinstall its software and sets it to the default settings.

• IPod nano 7 icon appears in iTunes, with Windows 8 or IP on both computers. Two nano 5s work perfectly. Short black lines appeared on the screen iPod

  NO icon of nano 7 will appear on iTunes despite trying 2 computers, Ip and win 8. Also tried two nano 5s and several cables and ports. Also, some black lines on the screen.

  What is "Intellectual property"?  Did you mean to type XP?  There is no iPod nano "5s". are these 5th gen iPod nanos?  Why do we say "iPod nano (6th generation)" in your profile in?  It's the iPod nano with the gen 7 problem?

  If the 7th gen iPod nano is new (model 2015), it does not work with a version of iTunes that runs on Windows XP.  It should work with the current latest version of iTunes on the computer of Windows 8, however.

• 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 5 G vs 7G

  I am looking to buy an iPod Nano. I heard that the click wheel on the 5G breaks, I don't want to deal with fingerprints. Which device is more user-friendly and accessible, because for me, the G-7 resembles a small iPod Touch without internet.

  I used a nano gen 5 years and use it exclusively for my race (with the Nike + Bluetooth receiver to iPod and motion sensor on the shoe).  I use a case and hold it in my hand when running.  I took a few falls and dropped my nano several times.  So it has a few scratches.  Always works 100%.  According to my experience, it is solid.  I don't know that there are some owners with broken wheel.  When tens of millions of what whatsoever are sold, ALL possible types of problem will be produced for the global customer base.  This does not mean that any particular problem is likely to occur to any individual customer.  Since you don't touch the screen to use a 5th gen nano, there is no problem with the fingerprints.  A user of long date iPod, I like the interface of the wheel.

  The 5th gen nano becomes an iPod 'old' at this stage.  Old things tend to start to break down.  If the iPod has been heavily used, its battery is likely to be carried out (or how to get there).  If the iPod wasn't used a lot and sat in a drawer, which can be even worse for a lithium battery.  The nano gen 5 has a battery that is soldered to the logic board, is not easy to replace, without good soldering skills and enjoy disassembling miniature electronics.

  A unique feature of 5th generation iPod nano: it has a video camera (to take videos not photos), as well as a built-in microphone and tiny speaker.

  The 7th gen nano is the current model.  It is brand new with a warranty of one year.  Users who have never used an iPod scroll wheel can be more usable.  It has a touch interface; you deal with fingerprints.  It uses the connector of the lightning, which is the current standard for Apple peripheral of mooring.  No accessory Nike + necessary to track running.

  A unique feature of 7th generation iPod nano: it has built-in Bluetooth.

• iPod nano 5 with MacOS Sierra

  I use the latest version of MacOS Sierra (10.12) in my MBPmid14. However, I found that the iPod Nano 5 I have is not recognized by the computer. It loads, but it does not sync. One of you have the same problem?

  I have not used this iPod in some time, including synchronization and load. I have an XtremeMac charging cable.

  Is what the iPod is too old and too recent software, cable has problems (it has synchronized before) or something in the settings prevents the synchronization?

  I use a 5th generation iPod nano, and it works fine with the latest version of the OS and iTunes.

  When you connect it, look at the screen of the iPod.  He said initially 'Connected' (to indicate a data connection)?  Or does only show the symbol of battery?

• 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 1st generation, not seen by PC

  I found my Ipod Nano and reloaded when I first plugged it in to charge it shows the iTunes I remember loading. However, when I plugged it in to the computer (using the same cable that I used recently, so I know it works!), it displays a message "use iTunes to restore". I went through the Reset routine but it still shows the message. Any rational suggestion out there?

  

  Image of the message I get. Yet when I tried to reset (no apparent reaction), if I plug it into the PC (Windows 10) the message will blink on and outside; If I try without the cable or connections, the screen remains blank. Very frustrated now.

• IPod Nano/Greyed out music

  Hi guys,.

  So I use an Ipod Nano 4th generation, but when it comes to connect to ITunes it just will not work. I use Windows 10 and you just download the new ITunes.

  My Ipod is recognized on ITunes, under devices but when I click on it to get my songs, they are all shaded with just a tick next to each song (there is no symbol in the left column, see below)

  Basically, I want to solve this problem, so I can buy and add new music on my Ipod... How can I do this?

  Thank you in advance,

  Emma
