Ipod nano 7th generation-formatted :

My girlfriend gifted me a brand new ipod nano 7th generation two weeks back. To upload songs in the ipod I connected to pc and it asked me to format the ipod and mistakenly I have formatted ipod nano (7th). Now it won't shut down nor do any activities. It is also not recognized by itunes. Now how to I revive it? Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks

If you formatted the iPod's storage using Windows, it is erased along with the iPod's software.  You will need to do a Restore using iTunes.  If iTunes currently does not recognize the iPod when you connec it, try putting the iPod into Disk Mode first
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1363
Run iTunes on the computer and connect the iPod.  If iTunes sees the iPod, it may say something about "recovery" and should prompt you to do a Restore.  The Restore re-installs the software, so it should be back to the way it was when you took it out of the box.

  • Ipod Nano 7th generation touch interface is now screwed with due to apple update.

    Hi, I recently purchased a new laptop switching over from a macbook pro 2010 of which the logicboard died. In this newly configured windows 7 64 bit laptop I downloaded the latest itunes. I then connected my ipod nano 7th generation to it and it requested to format it since it was formatted for a mac. I did so and restored my ipod nano 7th generation. After this however my previously perfectly working nano touch interface (swiping, touch to select) is now completely messed up. This has to be due to the formatting and/or the new nano update or itunes update from apple. I can't even swipe to the right or left to move between screen interfaces on my nano anymore. As well the touch icons require double taps and have rectangular white selection boxes over each icon (NOT NORMAL)
    Overall I am very displeased and want apple to fix this with either a new firmware nano 7th generation update or apple itunes update for windows 7 64bit. I'm thinking of buying a replacement iphone 4 but now that this issue is prevalent how can I TRUST Apple that nothing wrong will occur with connecting a new iphone 4 to my itunes on a windows 7 64 bit PC.
    I am NOT the only one with this issue as you can check out for yourself: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20130727205241AAOmiuC
    REASON FOR POSTING THIS HERE: I want more exposure to this issue. I couldn't get access to customer support since my ipod nano 7th generation is over a year old. This is cruel but whatever, Apple does what it wants and I will post this here to do what I want. Gain exposure to this defect that clearly Apple is not addressing since the above link displays a user with the same issue and posted the problem 3 months ago.
    DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS APPLE

    Hi ImAMinion.
    Very good question. I should have explained that part. VoiceOver changes how the navigation functions so it's a little tricky.
    From the home screen I got to settings by swiping up and down instead of the normal left and right.
    To open settings I first tapped once on the settings icon so that the box appeared around the icon. Then I double tapped the icon to open it.
    I repeated the "tap once to get the box then double tap to open" process to navigate through the settings menu. Navigate to: Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> VoiceOver -> set to off. Once it's off the navigation will return to normal.
    Hope that helps.

  • My iPod nano 7th generation won't sync video

    My iPod nano 7th generation will sync music but not video. I have updated iTunes and restored the iPod even gone into the Apple store and nothing has helped. How do I get around this problem???

    Not all iTunes video can be transferred to iPod, If the video resolution or video bit rate beyond iPod limitation, you can't upload them to iPod. For example, some iTunes purchased movie are High definition movie, the resolution is too high to play on iPod. If the videos are in your iTunes, you can right-click the video to highlight it, and then select "Create iPod or iPhone Version". iTunes will automatically convert the video to iPod compatible format. When the conversion process has completed, sync the new version to your iPod. For more info, here is a guide about how to convert and transfer video to iPod nano. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • Can i use my new ipod nano 7th generation on my macbook pro

    I registered my new ipod nano 7th generation on my macbook pro.  While on my macbook, I tried to download wma audiobooks from the library using overdrive media console & its not working.....so, I decided to use my windows laptop.  I have the latest version of itunes on both laptops.  (I know I can download & transfer wma audiobooks to my shuffle using overdrive media console & windows laptop.)  I'm getting an error message that says I have to reformat my nano if I want to download wma audiobooks.  Can I use my nano on macbook pro & windows laptop?  will I ever be able to download wma audiobooks to my nano using macbook? 

    Your iPod Nano will need to be restored in iTunes on the Windows laptop before you can start adding/syncing content over to it.
    Or if you want to use it with OverDrive on the Mac, you'll need to download the books as MP3s as WMA is not supported.

  • How do you dowload songs from iPod nano 7th generation to iTunes on another computer?

    I have iTunes on two computers. I bought a movie on one computer, but through a series of events had to erase my iPod on that computer and sync it to a different computer. Now, it will not sync the movie unless it is on the computer I bought the movie from. Because I erased my iPod on the computer I bought the movie, I have to download my iPod to the computer I bought the movie on in order to sync the movie to my iPod. How do you download everything on the Ipod nano 7th generation to iTunes on another computer?

  • How do I shuffle a playlist during a workout on an ipod nano 7th generation?

    How do I shuffle a playlist during a workout on an ipod nano 7th generation?  The only shuffle option I see is for all songs, not a specific playlist.  I know that I can begin a workout using the now playing option.  This will allow me to shuffle a playlist in the begining of my workout, but if I want to change music I cannot get back into shuffle mode unless I select the shuffle all songs option. 

    This is from the Nike support page:
    <http://support-en-us.nikeplus.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/20976/p/3169,3171
    Shuffle Songs: Plays songs shuffled randomly from your music library. To shuffle a playlist rather than your entire music library, start the playlist in shuffle mode before setting up your Nike+ workout. Then, when setting up your workout preferences, select "now playing" in the Music menu.

    My Windows 8.1 computer doesn't recognize my iPod nano 7th generation. Why?
    When I connect my iPod to my computer, nothing happens. I've read the tips in the section "support" and I noticed that maybe Windows 8 is not one of the operating systems that are compatible with an iPod nano 7th generation. If I'm right, what can I do if my only device is a Windows 8?
