20 iPod nano's for nursing home music therapy.. exceeding the allowed devices for iTunes.. Help!

Hello. I am looking for an answer. My sister works at a nursing home. They have purchased 20 iPod nano's for music therapy. Each resident has very different music requests. I have a MacBookPro and am trying to help her, but iTunes will only allow five devices. I currently have five devices attached to iTunes. Is there any way I can help her to put music on all of these nano's? Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated!

    I've run diagnostics. Can't find device. I've tried resetting. The toggle has been turned on and off.

    Cable works fine on my other iPod. Reset by pressing menu and center button together for 6-10 seconds. Left it to charge for many hours. Started acting up while running. Suddenly the music stopped playing but my Nike + was still working for the rest of my run. Took it straight it home and plugged it in to the wall to recharge since the battery was fairly low. Looked like it recharged ok but then screen went blank and now does it not show up on iTunes, does not seem to recharge by the wall charger (apple wall charger plugged into a surge protector in India). I have turned the hold switch off and on many times.
    Sounds like a repair issue, which is not easy to do in India :(

  • How do I get my ipod nano touch to sync my music

    We are attempting to attach our son's ipod nano touch to our home library. There are actually two issues: The first issue is from the account we created for him, we can't get the songs we purchased for him to sync to his ipod. The second issue is that we want to know how to get selected (and only selected) songs from our shared library to his ipod without adding our entire library. Can you help us out?

    Is the Manually manage music and videos option ticked from under this tab as well?  If not, what configurations do you have made from under your iPod's Music tab?

  • When using my new nano 7 with nike , my music stops after the 30 minute voice alert even though I have set my run for over 30 minutes.It cancels/deletes my run/workout when the music stops.This has happened several times.How can I keep this from happening

    When using my new nano 7 with nike+, my music stops after the 30 minute voice alert even though I have set my run/workout for over 30 minutes.  It also cancels/deletes that run/workout.  This has happened several times.  How can I keep this from happening?

    If possible I would arrange for a good service center to go over it. Hopefully they have a variety of parts in stock. They can test and verify all is working. The previous attempts are based on guesses by the person at the other end of the phone without diagnostic tests to assess the culprit. It is extremely unlikely for a webcam to fail & for it & a Mic to fail together should be an indicator to a good technician it is something else. EG Motherboard
    Take it to a servicing dealer and wait for it.

    Hey there Antonio7,
    You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod nano to your computer with this article:
    Re-download or transfer your iTunes Store purchases from an iPhone, iPad or iPod to a computer
    Transfer your purchases to your computer
    Before you transfer your purchases, make sure that your computer is authorized with the same Apple IDaccount you used to make the purchases. Learn how to authorize your computer using iTunes.
    If you bought the iTunes Store content on your device using multiple Apple ID accounts, you'll need to authorize the computer for each one.
    To transfer purchases from your device to a computer:
    Connect your device to the computer. Wait for its icon to appear in iTunes.
    Go to File > Devices. If you're using iTunes for Windows and can't see the menu bar, learn how to turn on iTunes menus in Windows.
    Choose Transfer Purchases from [device name].
    ​​This feature works only for content bought from the iTunes Store. Any items that you imported from audio CDs or received from other sources won't copy from your device to the iTunes library. However, all podcasts from your device's Podcasts app and copies of all PDFs and books from your device's iBooks app will transfer to the computer. Learn how to transfer media to your iTunes library.
    Then you can sync the music to your iPod touch in the same way you sync music to any device:

  • 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.

  • My ipod nano this morning has started to tell me the accessory (lightening to 30-pin adaptor) I use for playing it through my docking station is not supported. It worked fine up until last night. Does anyone know why this might be?

    Clean any debris from the adapter, docking station connector and the connector on the Nano.

  • The on/off button on my 6th gen iPod nano recently got spoilt and I sent it back to the shop for a repair/exchange a week ago. Now I have just found out about the new 7th gen iPod nano and I am wondering, can I get the new one as a replacement?

    No.  You can turn your 6G Nano in to be recycled at your local Apple Store for a 10% discount towards the purchase of a new one. Otherwise, your only other option would be to sell the iPod on Craigslist or eBay and use the proceeds from the sale towards the purchase of the new 7G nano.

  • I got a new iPod nano 7th gen., but when I tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Some of the videos in your iTunes library cannot be copied to your iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod.

    I got a new iPod nano 7th gen, but when i tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Soem of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to yor iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod. What should I do?

    I kept having a similar problem - 3 out of the 10 videos I had on iTunes wouldn't sync. They were in the right format and I KNEW they worked on my iPod because I'd RECORDED them on my iPod. I finally figured out what to do! Go to the movies in your iTunes library. Click on one that does not sync. Click on "Advanced" at the top of iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version". Once that's finished, be sure you delete the old version so you don't keep getting the error (or have 2 copies of the same video) and sync. This should eliminate the problem. At least it did for me!

    Ok so sorry for clogging the community!! I figured it out - you have to copy your videos into itunes manually. I did that, synched and all good!

    Hello HernanOtt,
    Depends on where you have it serviced.  Here are Apple's repair quotes.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    You would probably save a lot of money by having a 3rd party repair company do the job for you instead.  Just do a simple Google search for iPod repair and you'll get a plethora of results.

  • My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    My ipod Nano generation 7 shuts down unexpectedly while using the NIKE  app, has anyone experienced this problem?

    This is not a problem I have only had with 7th gen. iPod.  I have had this problem with the 5th gen.  It goes back a few years.  Nike and Apple are aware of this.  Nothing has been done.  It appears that when the iPod voice commences (whether to update you on the status of your run) and you touch a button to prompt a mileage update or song change yourself (or even brush the device wrong when taking off a jacket), the operating system overloads and cannot sort it out.  It then shuts down and reboots.  Your mileage is lost.  So sorry.  Have a nice day.
    Love the other aspects of running with a nano (small and light weight).  I can keep it high and dry and out of the way.  Like the software.  Use it almost everyday.  Hate the unknown dropped runs.  I have logged over 2,000 miles with these devices.  Today I lost another 3 miles - probably the 30-40th time it has happened.  Frustration is somewhere between time for another device to time for another system - Map My Run indeed!
    This probably occurs with my iPod once or twice a month.  Went to the Apple Store - three times.  The first time was maybe two years ago and they first tried some magic dust and then on the second visit, they swapped out my nano - it was a bit flimsy.  The problem returned.  I then upgraded.  The problem returned.  The third time they did a reset and it seemed to help.  Then, it returned.  But to download an older software version, verify the fidelity of the UBS cable, jump from computer to computer, make a trip to the Apple store, and perform so many two steps on one leg just to get what we paid for seems . . .  well, lame.  And, Apple told us the thingy would work using all the different computers and software (Vista, Nike, etc. etc.).   
    Oh, one other thing.  The Apple Store told me to complain to Nike.  Nike said their software is fine.  This is like dealing with General Motors or the government - but, worse.  Not my problem man.  See the guy over there.  Got it.
    I note that no one from Apple is jumping in the chain here with a fix.  So much for customer exuberance.  Generally like Apple.  We have about 20 Apple devices in our family (desktops, portables, phones, pods, tablets) and are lining up for the watches . . .  but, maybe Apple is an idea who time has come and gone, . . . like the wind.
