2 nike plus sport kits 1 Ipod?

I have one IPOD Nano and 2 sport kits....Is it possible for my wife and I to share 1 ipod and still each have our identity using our own sport kits.

This post from Apple FAQ, should be relevant to what you want to do:
Question: I have a computer at home and one at work. Can I update my iPod music collection from more than one computer?
Answer: Yes. When you first connect iPod to your computer, iPod recognizes that computer as its "home" computer. Each time you connect, iPod automatically downloads the music library stored on it. When you connect iPod to a different computer, iPod asks for permission before synchronizing with this music library. If you choose Auto-sync, iPod recognizes the second computer as its home computer and breaks the link with the original computer. If you do not choose Auto-sync, iPod switches to manual update mode, allowing you to selectively drag songs, albums, or playlists from the second computer to your iPod.
Synchronization occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your iPod. This means you cannot transfer music, automatically or manually, from your iPod to a computer, and you cannot use iPod to copy a music library from one computer to another. But, if you legally are allowed to copy music files, you can configure your iPod as a hard disk to move music files.

Completely Frustrated With Nike Plus Sports Kits

I've bought several Nike Plus Sports Kits recently and every single one of them has had a dead sensor in them. Either I'm buying them from retailers that have had these units on their shelves for years (ever since Nike Plus first rolled out), or there is some sort of defect with the majority of the sensors I've purchased. It's a real pain in the neck to keep having to take these kits back to where I bought them and try a different location to get a new one.
I didn't have this problem when the program first rolled out years ago (when the batteries in these units were fresh), but lately I've lost all desire to even use Nike Plus and have resorted back to a good old fashioned pedometer.
Any suggestions?

I also have just bought 1 sensor (Fnac in Italy) and it seems with a dead battery. I have tried all possible options and followed instructions to connect to the new sensor, but never made it to connect with my iPod touch (2nd gen) or iPod Nano.
I will return it tomorrow to the shop.

IPhone and Nike Plus sport kit

I was under the impression NEW iPhone would work nike sport kit. I stopped the AT&T store they did not have a clue. (the APPLE store was too far away).
There several apps that seem to function very similar to the nike Sport kit. Any ideal which is the best or NIKE will be make an app for iphone
Noppie

Hi Noppie,
The last word from Apple PR in the news was that the Nike+ Sports Kit was only compatible with the 2nd Generation iPod touch and all the iPod nanos. There's no word on iPhone 3G support, and it looks quite unlikely, since even though the iPod touch has essentially the same software as the iPhone 3G, the iPod touch has that Nike+ adaptor built-in, while the iPhone 3G does not, not even in newly-manufactured models after that announcement.
If you must have the nike+, I recommend the iPod nano. It's smaller, has longer battery life, and it's the cheapest iPod with nike+ support. If you're patient, you may wait and see if the next iPhone has Nike+ built-in, or if the current model will support it.
If you want to use the apps on the app store, I can't say I've tried them, so just read the reviews. I feel as if they are a bit gimmicky, but that's my opinion, and I've never bought one yet, so don't take my word.
Hope this helps!

How do I uninstall the nike plus from my ipod nano?

I've got new running shoes and no longer need the nike plus.
how do I uninstall or remove the nike plus from my ipod?

I don't believe there is a way to remove it from the Nano. You can remove it from your Menu's via your iPod's Settings.

Do I need nike plus sensor with iPod Nano 7h generation?

I want to buy a iPod Nano just for the nike + support and logging my daily runs. is it mandatory to have the sensor in the shoe?

No, it's not. Neither the 6th nor 7th generation nano needs the sensor. I have the 7th generation and use the running app all the time. Have never used the sensor. Do expect to need to calibrate the app from time to time, as it will be off, distance wise.

Internet and Itunes with Nike + Sports kit.

Hi,
I am thinking about buying a nike+ sports kit but have just a few questions!
I have my ipod synced/itunes on a Windows Vista laptop, that has no internet.
To use nike+ sports kit do you have to have the internet on the computer which has your ipod synced to itunes?
The other computer in my houshold is a windows XP computer *with internet.*
do i need to sync my ipod/itunes onto this computer in-order to use the sports kit? Or can I use the sports kit on the computer with the internet but which is not the computer i would normally use for general ipod use (Syncing of songs etc)...? DO I need to have all of songs, itunes, internet & sports kit all *on the ONE computer?*
Very tricky to explain...
Help much appreciated!!

The Nike+ plus sports kit does support playback of Audiobooks. You need to start the audiobook before you start Nike+.

Ipod classic and nike sports kit

hi,
can anyone tell me if the ipod classic is compatible with the nike sports kit, importantly if its not why not?
i spent a considerable amount of money purchasing what i thought was a premium product and it would now appear that it will not even support something that a cheaper ipod (nano) will, how can this be so?
cheers

The iPod classic is not compatible with the iPod sport kit, likely because its hard drive is much more vulnerable to being dropped than an iPod nano's flash media.

Does 6th Gen iPod Nano need the Nike + Sports Kit?

I have the Nike+ sensor with my Sports Band. To use it with the new 6th Gen Nano, do I have to get the sports kit? Or is this feature built in like the iPhone 3GS and 4? The attachment to the new nano will make the form factor ugly.

Hi toffeepup,
As cocon said, you will need the receiver. Here are some of the references...
Based on the iPod nano Specifications page it looks like you will need the Nike + iPod Sport Kit (with the receiver) for the new nano.
From the bottom of that page, under "Which iPod are you?" it says, "Nike + iPod support".
Compare that to the iPod touch which says, " Nike + iPod support built in".
Also, from Rock and Run
"Then connect the receiver to your iPod nano. iPod touch, iPhone 3GS, and iPhone 4 include built-in support for Nike + iPod, so no receiver is necessary."
Note it does have a built in pedometer, and based on the Features page you can upload that to the Nike+ website. Not sure if that's enough for you.

IPod Classic and Nike + iPod Sport Kit

Will an iPod Classic work for the Nike + iPod Sport Kit?
Why does the Nike + iPod Sport Kit only work for iPod Nano and iPod Touch?

Will an iPod Classic work for the Nike + iPod Sport Kit?
No.
Why does the Nike + iPod Sport Kit only work for iPod Nano and iPod Touch?
Only those iPods contain the firmware needed to use it, likely because iPods with a hard drive such as the iPod classic are much more vulnerable to drops and other hard impacts than iPods which use flash media.

TS1484 Will a Nike + IPod sport kit sensor work with a 4s IPhone?

Will a Nike + IPod sport kit sensor work with a 4s IPhone?

I dont doubt your claim of 55-75 hours of usage
solely on running since january. Even though you say
that it has died prematurely with the range of hours
you give since the time you purchased the sensor.
I must ask if you were concious of turning off
the sensor when it was not in usage. You know
hitting that little button on the sensor itself to
deactivate the battery. If your answer is no that you
never remembered to turn off this sensor then. Your
idea that it has died prematurely is bad. Because
without physically turning off the sensor itself
(thats the portion in the sole of the shoe) then it
has been on 24/7 since you purchased it in january.
Now if you have remembered to turn off the sensor
after each run then it might have died prematurely.
IF thats the case I would contact apple or the place
from which you purchased it and ask for some help
regarding the sensor.
GFF:)
Umm, no: From the FAQ
"The sensor’s battery has a life of more than 1000 active hours. The sensor has a sophisticated built-in power management system which means that the sensor really only consumes power when active (that is, when it senses motion)."
Mine is now showing the low battery indicator at 277 hours. I'm not the only one with premature battery failure.

There are more threads (just search on "sensor battery").
This should be covered by the warranty. Can someone from Apple please respond to this thread?

Nike+ iPod Sport Kit for my personal workout and running.

I bought a Nike+ and I already have a iPod 5th Gen. with video and 80GB(which I love). Is there a software available to make the two compatible or is the Nike+ still only able to work with the iPod Nano? What should I do ?

I have a 7th generation nano, and am interested in the Nike Ipod sport kit. However, it looks like the kit only works with older nanos with the 30 pin connector. What kit or what accessory do I need to utilize the Nike ipod sport kit fuctionality?

I have a 7th generation nano, and am interested in the Nike + Ipod sport kit. However, it looks like the kit has a 30 pin connector on the receiver and the 7th gen nano is a lightning connector. Not sure if the kit will work. What kit or what accessories do I need to utilize the Nike + ipod sport kit fuctionality in the 7th gen nano? Do I just need a separate sensor and/or a heart rate monitor? Or is there a kit available for 7th gen nanos?

Hey SeanW89,
Thanks for the question. The iPod nano 7th generation has bluetooth functionality that can connect to the Nike+ sensor. You do not need to purchase the USB kit, but rather just the sensor itself:
Nike + iPod Sensor - Apple Store (U.S.)
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA368LL/E/nike-ipod-sensor
iPod nano (7th generation): Frequently used features
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5470
Connect to Bluetooth accessories
You can connect your iPod nano to compatible Bluetooth headsets and other accessories, including some hands-free systems in newer cars. You can also connect to a Nike+ sensor or a Bluetooth heart-rate monitor. iPod nano supports A2DP for audio streaming and AVRCP for controlling playback on Bluetooth devices.
Note: FM radio will not play through a Bluetooth accessory.
Thanks,
Matt M.

IPod Video and Nike + iPod Sport Kit

Does the sport kit work with the video ipod? If not, id there going to be a new version to use with it?

The fifth generation's iPod firmware does not work with the iPod sport kit, possibly because the hard disk on that model of iPod is much more vulnerable to the iPod being dropped than the iPod nano's flash media is.

Nike+ Sport Kit for IPod w/ Video?

I really wanted to know if they were going to make a sport kit for the regular IPod's w/ video becuase I would like to use this tool. ???
IPod w/ Video Windows XP

i heard that the reason behind just the nano is that if you run with any other ipod, because it has a harddrive, it would screw up the unit and since the nano uses flash only, it works perfectly with the armband and running, etc...but who knows...monday's WWDC should be interesting or dissapointing.
