IPod nano 6th generation not charging, not showing in iTunes, won't reset

iPod 6th generation, completely out of battery. Won't charge off iMac, plug socket or Macbook. Won't show up in iTunes in any either. Won't reset using the method i found on here (volume down button and sleep/awake button for 8-20 seconds).
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

hold down the enter button for 5 secs then plug into wall while still holding it down.

TA44551 Apple ipod nano 6th generation wont charge on pC, mains or car.

My ipod nano 6th generation wont charge, either through mains, car or computer USB charger. Had it one month, bought it from Amazon. Just dead, wont wake up. When it had charge tried master reset etc. still not able to charge or recognised/charge on PC

It'll need to charge for a while before it will turn on. Leave it to charge for a couple of hours, then try again.

Ipod nano 6th generation wont connect to computer or itunes, but still charges

I have an Ipod nano 6 that will not connect to my computer. It still charges however. I tried a new cord. I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I reset my computer and the ipod. I looked to see if it was a problem with my usb drivers and the ipod did not show up. I have basically tried everything but restoring it. Any help is greatly appreciated

HT4235 iPod nano 6th generation, syncing with audiobooks does not work now, had been working. Sync test says: No iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad found. Connectivity test OK, no physical problems, iTunes shows the iPod. Any clues what to do?

Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

IPod Nano 6th Generation Not Charging/Holding Charge

Hi.
My iPod Nano 6th generation will not charge or hold a charge. I plug it in and it will turn on for about 30 seconds or less and then die. It will then continue to turn on and die unless I unplug it in which case it will die and not turn on. Any advice/suggestions and/or help finding what is wrong would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

hold down the enter button for 5 secs then plug into wall while still holding it down.

I am having the identical trouble as described above with my month old Macbook Air. I tried everything with the ditto results. Please help anyone!
Mine is a Macbook Air 13', 128GB, 1.86GHz with 4 GB RAM.

Call Apple Care as you are still under warranty.

My ipod nano 6th generation will not turn on.

My iPod nano (6th generation) will not turn on. I have charged it (attached to my computer) for 30 minutes. I have tried to reset it (held down Wake and Volume Down for 8 seconds)- no response. I have factory restored it (through iTunes)- no response. It shows up as connected to my computer and will sync in iTunes, but the display on the iPod will not turn on. Any ideas?

Hey s.mccarter2010,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you have tried a lot of things and the iPod still will not turn on. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
iPod won't turn on
If you have tried the solutions above and iPod still won't turn on, check the following:
Make sure iPod is the only device in your FireWire or USB chain. Disconnect everything but the mouse, keyboard, and your iPod, then see if it will turn on.
Make sure you are using the FireWire or USB cable that came with your iPod, and that the cable is in good condition.
Try connecting iPod to the built-in port of a different computer to see if that works. Note: If using a portable computer, make sure it is plugged in to a power source and that the lid or display is open. If the lid is closed the computer may go into either standby, sleep, or hibernation mode and iPod will not charge properly.
If you still can't turn iPod on after performing these steps, it may need to be repaired. You can arrange for repair at the iPod Service Website.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario

My ipod nano 6th generation is not working anymore :( HELP

I have an ipod nano 6th generation. Was working perfectly. One day I wake up and is showing me a screen I have never seen before..It reads:N20 Snowfox 4A0432
When I plug it, itunes doesnt recognize it. It recognized it once but it says problem 1621 and I follow the instructions but still my ipod is frozen and not even my computer can read it.
I really miss my music for my morning run!

Have a look at comment # 4 and 5 on this page iPod nano 6G diagnostic mode to get it out of this mode again.
Pressing the volume minus button and power button should help.

Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

You can do an out-of-warranty replacement at an Apple Store for a fee, get a 3rd party site to repair it, sell it for parts, or get a new one.
