Pretty sure it doesn’t say there is not enough room in iTunes library because it is not backed up to the iTunes library.

My iPod Nano 6th Gen keeps pausing. It does this sometimes immediately. Sometimes when the screen goes dark. Sometimes after like 15 minutes.
The screen keeps going off and on at random too.
I tried resetting the settings, resetting with the buttons, searching for additional updates, unplugging the headphone and replugging it TIGHT, and new headphones.
Not only is this annoying, but the power is draining MUCH quicker between the screen coming on and having to turn it on to restart it.If a restore of the Nano in iTunes to factory settings does not resolve the issue, it's likely hardware related, meaning you should take or send your iPod in for service.

I cannot get past the initial screen on my new iMac. Data was transferred from my old computer so when I turned it on It automatically had my name in the window and asked for the password, but none of my old passwords seem to be accepted. How can I fix this?? It's a new IMac with osx.
Which password isn't working? The one to access the iPad or the one to get your hotmail?
If hot mail, you go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars and edit your hot mail account. Of if it won't edit, delete it off the iPad, then re-add it with the new password. -

My 6th Generation iPod Nano (Dopi is his name) took an unfortunate ride through my washing machine a few weeks back (one of the draw backs of it being so small and lightweight... it can sometimes elude the quick pre-laundry pocket check). At first, it was okay. I immediately threw it into a ziploc bag full of rice to pull all the moisture out of it. The screen was a little blotchy for a while, but it eventually seemed to work out all the kinks and was back to full operation within 12 hours. I was using it fairly regularly after that for the next couple days with no issues.
A few days later, my iPod was getting low on fuel and had a "Connect to Power" screen on it. So I plugged it into my iMac, and everything was working fine, I started to manage some playlists in iTunes while it charged, and that's when I noticed the screen was odd. Instead of the usual "Do Not Disconnect" screen that I'm used to, the screen had an all-white background, with a black "Do Not Disconnect." message on it. I thought it was odd. But I ejected it, and it said "Ok to disconnect." with a black checkmark. Same white background, black text. (also a black battery life icon in the top right corner) I disconnected, and it just told me to connect to power, again.
Finding that weird, I let the iPod's power completely drain, figuring that would fix the issue. It did not. As soon as I plugged it back in, the white screen came back. I let it power up to full, and after I eject and disconnect it, the "OK to disconnect" screen comes back, even after I've disconnected, and it stays there. I can't operate anything on it.
I've tried everything I know how to do: I've let the power drain, and recharged to full. I've tried resetting it. I tried restoring it to factory settings. And I tried to reset it and put it into disk mode, but the black and white "OK to disconnect." screen comes back before I can even get it into disk mode.
Before I restored to factory settings, I could still manage all the files on my iPod. I could add songs, remove them, make playlists and everything when I had it connected to iTunes, I just can't do anything with the iPod itself. So, my little Dopi is in a coma right now. He's still alive, he just won't wake up. I don't want to pull the plug on him.
Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem?
It's not easy for me to get to an Apple Store, so I thought I'd try this before I take it to any geniuses.Hello iamjonnyb1988,
The article linked below, while written for iOS devices, details some useful troubleshooting steps that can help get your computer to recognize your iPod Nano.

I've followed all the suggestions for saving the battery life but the battery still discharges very quickly. The only way I can stop it discharging is by turning the ipod off, which sort of defeats the object!
It's been suggested that I totally reset the ipod as new and then set it up again from scratch. Does anyone now how likely this is to help, as it will take rather a long time?Looks like good news!
I finally bit the bullet and did a reset as new.
It was a total pain as you can imagine, but it wasn't the end of the world to go through i-tunes reselecting the apps etc to sink (it was actually a pretty useful exercise because my ipod was full of apps I didn't really use!).
Anyway, it's been off the charger now for nearly five hours and I've been using it for bits and pieces like, the calculator, internet search over wifi, map viewing etc. and the battery is showing 97%!!! All setting are as per the default start up. I haven't changed brightness or anything like that.
Interestingly, now when it goes into standby, the router shows that the wifi link has dropped. When I then wake it again the link restarts after a few miliseconds. This didn't used to happen before.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed and will see how it goes over the weekend and report back on Monday!
