Yamaha MCR-640 and iPod nano 7th gen

Hi,
I'm using the "Lightning to 30-pin Adapter":

and tried on my Yamaha PianoCraft MCR-640. Sorry but I hear no music at all. Anyone has an idea what's wrong?

Hi,
the Yamaha support says:
it may work or it may not, as the iPod nano is not mentioned in the user manual.
So I'm stuck and have to buy an iPod touch...
Should I like apple or yamaha more for these answers?
that's apple life...

HT1386 Play count wont update between iTunes and iPod Nano 7th Gen

I have a iPod nano 7th generation and have the latest version of iTunes on my MacBook Pro... when I play music on my iPod and connect it to my computer, the play count doesn't update on my iTunes... The same can be said for when I play music on my iTunes...the play count wont update on my iPod... any ideas how to fix this? AK

If you want to make song files from your iTunes library available on your car audio system, and it connects using a USB port, a new iPod nano is a very expensive way to do it. If that's the only reason for getting the iPod nano, you should return it and get a cheap 8 or 16GB USB flash drive instead, which costs less than $20. Here's one that barely sticks out of the USB port.

You can then leave it connected in the car all the time, except for when you want to update the songs. An iPod is more fragile (especially screen and battery), and you'll have to always remember to remove it, in case the car overheats or freezes. It would also be a target for thieves.
For the audio file format, I can't believe any car audio system would ONLY play Window Media files, and not the most common type of audio files, MP3. Songs purchased from the iTunes Store, and those ripped from music CD (using the default settings), are in AAC format. It's possible the car system does not play AAC. So, I would try songs from your iTunes library that are in MP3 format.
You can use iTunes to convert songs from AAC (or any iTunes supported format) to MP3. So, if MP3 works, and you need details on how to convert audio format using iTunes, please post back. You cannot convert to WMA format (which is Windows Media audio) using iTunes.

Transferring from pc to itunes and ipod nano 7th gen

when i transfer music files from my pc i get the message to convert from wma or mp3 into aac format which is fair enough but often when they appear in my ipod the albums get split into two or more, sometimes 12 albums and also a lot of the titles of the tracks dont appear so that my ipod show blanks under an album or artists name when there are tracks there. any help out there please.

You have a few things going on that are not clear.
You can import your music into iTunes from the iTunes File menu, Import to Library. You can select a folder or a set of tracks. You do not have to import them individually. You can also just drag a folder of music and "drop" it on iTunes.
You can then, if you want to, copy your music to the iTunes folder. You don't have to, but if you want to go to File/Library/Consolidate Library.
If it says that music cannot be found this means that the music file has been moved since it was last played in or imported into iTunes.
To sync your music to your iPhone you can connect your phone to your computer, click on its name in iTunes, then either check "Manually Manage music and videos" in iTunes and drag your music onto your phone, or, what I think is much easier, UNCHECK this option, then click on the Music tab. Select the music you want on the phone, then click Sync.

Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

If the Belkin supports the A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) profile then it will work.

My ipod nano 7th gen no longer shows "Playlists" in the music menu. No changes made other than deleting one and adding one playlist to those synced. Synced fine in late February. Not working as of 3/7/2014.

I would either say that the iOS is correpted due to a software glitch or y have have a hardware problem like bad memory locations that are corrupting the iOS.
- Restore from backup via iTunes. This will install a fresh copy of the iOS. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.   This will elimate corruptin in the backup causing the problem.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I accidentally dropped by old ipod in the garage and drove over it. So I bought an ipod nano 7th gen. to replace it. Can I transfer the itunes from my old ipod to my new one? I only have about 30.

AAll of your iTunes purchases can be re-downloaded again. Log into iTunes Store, select the Purchases tab for Apps, Music, etc.
if you've been syncing your old iPod with iTunes, you can restore everything to your new iPod from the old backup.

Hi altofts,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. You can try resetting and restoring your iPod nano to see if that helps with the restart loop:

The date and time on my ipod nano 7th gen keeps on changing

Hi,
Since i bought my iPod Nano 7th gen, ive been having problems with the date and time. Every time i change it to the actual time and date, it changes after a while. Does this happen with anyone else? Would there be a problem with my iPod?

Well after i change it it seems fine, but when i use it another time it has been changed.

This is how it's displayed: http://i50.tinypic.com/nd7vk7.jpg
And this is what happens when I click properties and 'search for solutions': http://i47.tinypic.com/2iu3vrc.jpg (the box disappears after that, apparently having done nothing, when I search online for software it informs me my computer already has the best/latest installed)
I use a Toshiba Satelite L350-170, my Vista is a 32-bit Thankyou!

My ipod nano 7th gen is stuck on a loop of turning on and off.

My ipod nano 7th gen is stuck on a loop of turning on and off, I've already done the reset, and everything that was recommended on other similar questions. it isn't recognized by iTunes except in recovery mode where it allows me to restore but then goes right back to turning on and off once i'm back to normal play mode. Once on recovery mode it works fine and doesn't turn on and off. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to avail. I'm super frustrated and am hoping that I won't need to buy a new one. Is there anything else I can do before i just toss it out? i'm getting a bit frustrated just watching my ipod turn on to the apple and then turn right back off.

Hi there tksunrise,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4433
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting it while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least six seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
Issue not resolved
If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.

When I connect my iPod nano 7th gen. to my computer and open itunes, there is a message that says the iPod could not be detected. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

My ipod nano 7th gen has suddenly gone black and it wont turn on or connect to a power source.

I was listening to my ipod nano 7th gen when it went black and the music stopped playing. It wont turn on when i press the power button and when i connect it up to charge the screen doesn't turn on. Can anyone tell me how to turn it on again or give me suggestions.
Much appriciated,
MissC@t

Hey MissC@t,
Although the following article says 6th generation, most of the troubleshooting steps should still apply to your 7th generation nano. I'd go through the troubleshooting steps and see if that resolves the issue:
