6 Gen Nano Plays Music With Static.

My 6th gen. nano is playing music with static.  I have tried replacing apple earbuds, restoring the nano, and modifying the volume limit and sound checking.  No history of water damage or trauma to the unit.  Any suggestions?

I assume you've listened to the same songs using iTunes, and there is no static there...   If you've tried different headphones and a Restore (using iTunes) already, there is probably something wrong with the nano. 
Hopefully, it is still within one year from purchase date, and you can contact Apple (or make a reservation at an Apple Store Genius Bar), to see about getting it replaced under warranty.  Even if it's out of warranty, if there is a nearby Apple Store, you may want to have Apple tech support at the Genius Bar take a look at it.

  • 5th gen Nano playing songs slower and with some digital "noise"

    Recently I have notice my 5th gen Nano playing songs slowere and with digital "noise" when out speed walking with the pedometer on...anyone experience this and know what could be causing it?

    I'm also having this issue. It started on Friday. It slowed down my music towards the middle of the song and if I change the song it is OK for a bit and then it gets the digital noise and slows down again. I have no idea what is causing it. My ipod is less than a year old. I'm going to try and reset it tomorrow I think. The trouble is driving me NUTS.

  • Is there a fix for battery drain on ipad 2 IOS 5.0.1? drain from 100% to 70% in less than 20min had it on playing music with display off

    is there a fix for battery drain on ipad 2 IOS 5.0.1? drain from 100% to 70% in less than 20min had it on playing music with display off

    About all that can be suggested is to use the feedback form and talk to Apple. They have communicated with some users, trying to get more info to find out just what the battery drain is so they can fix it. Unfortunately with the myriad of operating systems, apps and individual tweaks, there could be several combinations of settings that are draining the battery.
    My personal suspicion is that it has something to do with iCloud and the wifi syncing. (My ipad, before I changed the setting, was reaching out to find a sync on a regular basis. And it may still be doing so, however I set my iTunes to not automatically open to keep my device from trying to sync several times in an evening...not to mention the constant aggravation of iTunes opening regularly)
    That said, I could be wrong and it could be an app that users have in common, or several apps.

  • I cannot play music with my slideshows. I setup the music but it does not play, even with my older slideshows I hear no music.

    I cannot play music with my slideshows. I setup the music but it does not play, even with my older slideshows I hear no music.

    This category is for iPod shuffle.  Is that the type of iPod you have, because your description of the problem does not sound like it's about a shuffle?  If it's not a shuffle, what is the iPod model...?
    There is music there and I can play it connected to laptop.
    Are you doing the playing using the iPod, or are you playing the music using iTunes on the laptop?
    All mucis icons read "No music" and this is not correct
    Do these icons with "No music" appear on the laptop's screen, or on the iPod's screen

    To stream non-iTunes audio sources from your PC to the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) you will need a third-party application, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil for Windows.

  • PLAYING MUSIC WITH MY BB 8100

    I suddenly noticed that my BB 8100 no longer play a music to the end as usual. It rather stops on its own accord and returns to the home page just like that.
    I  will really appreciate how to get this rectified cos i love playing music with it.
    Moreso, i'm yet to use the wireless service on my BB, i'll also welcome simple guidelines on this.
    Thanks in anticipation.

    Thank you.
    So on the main pc, it has to be set to manual update.
    Will this remove the music that's already on the ipod?
    Will I then have to drag each playlist over to the ipod individually to get the new data to the ipod, or will I just click 'update' and have it still be semi automatic?
    will the ipod still update play counts to itunes with this manual update?

  • Itunes plays music with fuzzy noise?

    You may want to check your soundcard output in QuickTime. See this post for directions on the process: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa;jsessionid=aXxb7IZbMDPmI_4E?messageID=814726&ft=y&#814726

  • Can you play music with the laptop closed?

    Is there a way play music with the Laptop closed? I have a MacBook Pro w/Retina display.

    You'll either need to have a keyboard and monitor attached so you can wake the computer with the screen closed or use one of the third-party utilities that keeps the MBP from sleeping when you close the lid such as InsomniaX.
    Regards.

  • Nano plays music out loud even when ear buds are plugged in?

    Nano plays music out loud even when ear buds are plugged in? its like the external speaker is always on, i cannot figure out how to turn it off....HELP SOMEONE

    You don't have to shout - typing in caps.
    The earphones must be pushed very hard into the iPod. So hard, that the white part of the plug must touch the iPod in order for the external speakers to turn off. You will hear a click.
    
If you do a forum search, you will find this same solution. If it does not work, you will need to take your iPod to an apple store or call the Apple iPod tech support if still under warranty or you have Apple Care.

  • Can the voiceover utility on the 6th gen Nano be accessed with headphones other than the Apple earphones?

    Can the voiceover utility on the 6th gen Nano be accessed with headphones other than the Apple earphones?

    No I have tried and they don't also my iPod touch 2nd generation doesn't work with voice control unless it has apple earbuds plugged in. I guess apple doesn't want 3rd party brads interfering with their company. Thanks please like

  • Ipod 4th or 5th gen only plays music out loud even with headphones in

    So recently my Ipod decided that it only wanted to play music as if there weren't any headphones in it even though i had headphones plugged in. Any ideas or suggestions would be awesome.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • TS3218 my 6th gen nano plays the same song over and over even though the repeat is off. can anyone help me with this problem?

    my 6th generation nano plays the same song over and over even though the repeat is not on.

    It sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See page 21 of your iPod's User Guide for instructions on turning it off.

  • IPod Shuffle 4th gen cannot play music and no lights but shows up in PC

    I've been using the iPod Shuffle 4th gen for almost 3 months since I bought it at September 2010. Since yesterday, my iPod hasn't been playing musics or showing up any lights, same thing when plugged to computer and it didn't showed up in iTunes neither. Today, finally the light lit up when I plugged it into my computer and showed up in iTunes too. But, unfortunately, I still can't play any music. The light goes off every time I remove my iPod from the computer and it is not responsive to any clicks whatsoever. I've tried restoring the device and syncing all the songs back in, it didn't worked either.
    SOME HELP PLEASE? thanks

    I am having the same problem with mine.
    When connected to the PC it seems to be ok. All the light signs are working (sync, battery, etc.). I can access it by iTunes, add or delete music, etc.
    But when I unplugg from the PC it will not respond to anything.
    I have tried the hard reset and to restore it...no change at all.
    Anyone can help!?
