Make sure your headphones are plugged in all the way, meaning you cannot see any of the silver still showing from the headphone's plug.
A feature of the Nano is to put it to sleep when the display goes out and it does not detect any headphones.

HT1414 How do I sync my device to a different device's library? Do I have to restore to factory settings and start over? Or, is there a simpler process where i can just select the library/device that I want to sync with?

Is there an easier way other than restoring to factory settings and starting over?

Open itunes, connect ipod, select what you want, sync.
No need to restore. Just sync. It will erase the current content and replace with the content of the new computer.

My ipod jumps from one screen / app to another on it's own. Sometimes I can't unlock or even shut off. I've tried the reset, I've tried back up, even tried restoring to factory settings and is still having problem. Any ideas of what I can do.

When you still have the problem after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod then you very likely have a hardware problem and an appointment a th Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Does anyone know why my 2nd gen iPod calendars will not update from my Macbook pro starting as of Oct. 20, 2012? I tried restoring to factory settings and genius's did DFR type restore....no results.

As of Oct 20, 2012, my calendars will not load from my Macbook Pro to my iPod. Tried resetting to factory settings and installing just my work calendar... unsuccessful. Genius at my Apple store tried a DFR (?) type reset... still no calendars. All other functions of the iPod is working fine. Any suggestions?

10.8.2. And I have been keeping up with updates, but I thought they all involved fixes to Logic Pro and Aperture (but there may have been an update to OXS...is there any way to see when fixes were released?) The Genius's at our store were stumped and told me to contact Apple.... but without Apple care, I will be charged a fee.... and my iPod is in pristine shape. Is there a way to request Technical support for a problem they are possibly causing?

All the apps that I have downloaded are "waiting" and whenever I try to sync apps on my computer with my phone, the apps section is greyed out and won't allow me to do anything. I have tried restoring to factory settings but it didn't work.

How can I access my apps? They are all greyed out in itunes. I have tried restoring my iphone to factory settings but that didn't work. I have a feeling it may have something to with the restrictions settings on my phone restrictions are on) but it won't allow me to change the restrictions without putting in a passcode. I don't remember ever having a passcode and after several attempts have not been able to get the right code.
Also. on my phone, in settings, personal hotspot, iCloud and Twitter are greyed out. And, the App Store icon is missing from my screen as well.
Can anybody help me with this?
Thanks

yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
open itunes on my computer
click on my device on the left
go to the device summary
click restore
it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this!

Tried restoring to factory settings and folder blinking with ? In the middle

how do I get rid of a blinking folder with a question mark in the middle? Daughter tried restoring to factory setting and got to this and didn't know what to do. HELP!!

lgeorge45,
which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it?

On my ipod it deleted all my music but when i plug my ipod in all the music is there but it wont let me play it. how do i get my music back?

i plugged my ipod in and i tried to play a song and a grey explanation mark showed up and it wouldn't play and when i looked at my ipod it didnt have any music on it, when before it had like more than 500 songs. but now everytime i plug it in all my music shows up but it wont play and it only says i dont have any music on my ipod. i really dont want to have to put ALL those songs back on and im hoping there is a way i can fix it.

The ! in iTunes next to a song: The song can’t be located; it may have been moved or deleted
To find the music files see:
iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I've been deleting the info in the "Sort..." fields, but when I plug my iPod into my computer iTunes repopulates the fields I deleted. How do I stop it from doing that?

I've been deleting information I don't want in the "Sort..." fields (like getting rid of "Deluxe Edition" markers, etc.), but when I plug my iPod into my computer iTunes repopulates the fields I deleted. This only happens for a few artists, and it's the same artists every time this happens. How do I stop it from doing that? It makes it measurably harder for me to control the organization of my library.

Hi donfrommars,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
Please use the following article for information and instruction on deleting the U2 album from your devices and account.

My ipod classic has been stolen can anybody download my personal photos from it

my ipod classic has been stolen can anybody download my personal photos from it

They can, but the images will only be the small thumbnail files that are created for optimized viewing on the iPod's smaller display. That is unless you store the images on the iPod in their full resolution.

Try:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Resetting network settings: Setting>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

My 4G Ipod shuffle does not play songs in the correct order? Already restored to factory settings and no success.. Can anybody help me?

My 4G Ipod shuffle does not play songs in the correct order? Already restored to factory settings and no success.. Can anybody help me?

I FINALLY GOT IT! after months of relentless synching/autofilling problems on my 4th generation i figured out the solution.
this is what i did: plugged in ipod on off mode~>manually deleting my ipod's songs~>restored factory settings~>unchecked automatic synch~>made a new playlist with exactly the songs & order i wanted for my ipod (just dragged old playlists into the new one)~>then autofilled that new playlist into my ipod. came out like a charm! (before u autofill UNCHECK random add songs)
my ipod always ended up autofilling/synching my customized playlists wrong or it would automatically do my music library (and that was way unorganized), so this worked.

I saved docs from a iMac to a flashdrive but when I plug the flashdrive into an iBookG4 and try to open the docs on the flashdrive, I get this message: Doc 2 cannot be opened. The required index.xml file is missing. Does this mean that I can't use the info on the flashdrive with the iBookG4 or can I do something to get the required index.xml file?
Thanks

It appears if you write the document with newer version Pages and try to open it older version Pages.
