6th Gen Nano screen turned sideways.

The screen on my 6th Gen Nano flipped on it's side, kind of like most smartphone's do now a days but it won't go back to it's original position? Anyone else have this problem? I already tried restarting it but that didn't work.

Place two fingers on the screen and rotate in the direction you want the screen to move.

How does the 6th gen nano screen view from 2 different positions ?

how does the 6th gen nano screen view from 2 different positions

Same as the current Ipod Video or "Classic" there is an option under settings to toggle between original aspect ratio or Full Screen.

My 6th gen nano screen will not rotate, stuck perpendicular to buttons

All of a sudden, my 6th gen nano screen will not rotate. I have it on a watch band and it is perpendicular to the buttons (and my view of it).

planb77, you have truly taught me a lesson, and after all these years, I finally see that it is very helpful to READ THE MANUAL. I was having this issue, and it was spell out for me all this time. I never liked to look at the manual to resolve my technical issues, but I will always go there first to see if I can resolve any issues.
Thanks,

The Display on my 6th gen nano has flipped sideways, and I don't know how to get it back to the right side up.

The display on my 6th Generation Nano has flipped sideways, and I can't figure out how to get it to flip back.

Place your fingers onto the screen and gently (but firmly!) drag the screen around to the upright position.
Hope this helps.

My 6th gen display has turned sideways, and won't turn back.

The display has turned 45 dregrees and won''t turn back. I have tried "pinching" it and turning, but no luck.

Are you sure you are doing it correct? See page 11 of your iPod's User Guide for more information.

6th gen nano screen volume

I was told/read somewhere you can change the volume from the screen, in the "now playing"? Is this true? If so I'm blind.

No. You can only adjust the volume using the Volume buttons along the side of the device.

My apple 6th gen nano turns on but only has a bright light without images

my apple 6th gen nano turns on but only has a bright light without images

Hi fejevitzky,
Your question, "Based upon that, I believe you are telling me you do not think it is the BIOS--is that correct?" Yes, as long as you dont see any "white" light reveal from LCD bezel back side while with blank screen state. LCD bezel is the cover around LCD, most design put LED modeule at the bottom side next to LCD. While back light is not on during boot up sequence, that means system doesnt have chance to get BIOS program running. It also means, it stuck at state of hardware bring up. Normally motherboard related.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

6th Gen nano,

Never had a problem with my 6th gen nano until now. Can't move songs from iTunes to it any more.Keep getting error stating Unable to Sync unknown error 13019. Any suggestions?

2) Bigger screen - gone
I believe that the screen is bigger.
I predict the Nano to be an epic failure. One has to wonder how the iPod team could possibly trash the elegant and highly functional G5 and replace it with......@#$%
That's very similar to what people said about the Mini. Smaller, too expensive. Turned out to be the one of the best selling iPods ever.
The new Nano was the only new iPod that really grabbed me. I ordered one as soon as the speech was over. I have one of the, I believe, 3rd gen Nanos, which was also squarish. Loved the shape. As I primarily use my Nano for running, video capture and playback never really mattered to me. I like the small size. I have a couple of Shuffles which are nice enough but I really don't like the lack of screen.
I think this Nano has huge potential.

6th gen nano doesn't stay on or off

My ipod nano 6g stops playing occasionally - not just when the screen goes black. It will run about 40 minutes and then quit, and after that somewhere between 3 and 30 seconds at a time. It also does not stay off even when I turn it off, the screen keeps coming back on and runs the battery all day. Suggestions besides the headphones? I've tried that.

My new (5 months old) 6th gen nano started doing the same thing, starting a week ago! I had to trade in my previous nano because the screen went white. Paid 150 for this one, now this again! I see alot of the same problems posted everywhere. Is there an Nano (6G) recall in the near future?
So where do I go from here?

6th Gen Nano Battery Life

How much run time are you getting with your 6th Gen Nano?
The tech specs state "up to 24 hours of play time."
I'm getting less than 6 hours. I charge overnight and listen to podcasts at 1.5x speed. The screen display is off most of this time. I may pause it every 30 min or so, but the screen is "off" the vast majority of time.
The unit is about a week old and only cycled 3 times.
Thanks,
Joe

I thought I had a defective batter as well, but I was wrong. I have been using the ipod throughout the day, starting in the Am with a full charge. At the end of the day, using it on and off, it would be about 20% or less. My thought was that I was probably only using it maybe 6 or 7 hours a day and that this is not what apple advertised. So I thought Id put it to the test. I was thinking that because I was changing albums by hand (using the LCD), checking song names occasionally, maybe using the lcd was a problem and draining the battery. So I looped a playlist and plugged it into my headphones and didn't touch it except for a couple times to quickly check the batter meter. It Gave up and quit at 16 hours. I thought for sure that I had a defective unit as thats 8 hours short of the 24 hours claimed. After reading an apple doc on how to extend battery life on Ipods, It mentioned that Turning off the EQ would extend the batter life. I also had another thought. The headphones I use are more DJ style and much larger. perhaps it takes more battery life to drive these things. So I Plugged in the Stock Apple Headphones and hit the reset button on the Ipod, which turned off the EQ and put the Ipod back to factory spec. After a re-run of the test, I got 31 hours and 15 minutes. This is a huge difference. So I guess My ipod is OK,and learned that the headphones I use, the abundant use of the interface screen, and using an EQ setting has a huge impact on batter life. Now I know, Hope this helps.

6th gen Nano: Sound quality and updates?

So I'm looking at possibly getting a 6G nano, couple questions. How is the sound quality? I recently bought a pair of $75 headphones and was very pleased with the them listening on my ipod touch 2nd gen, not so much on my 2nd gen shuffle. Can anyone compare the sound quality of the 6th gen nano to the 2nd gen ipod touch, or even the 2nd gen shuffle?
One feature that may keep me from buying this is the fact that it automatically sleeps after 60 seconds and there is no way to change this. So you have to wake the thing after every 60 seconds, which would be very annoying, especially if you are on a bike. Can/will apple do an update via itunes to add the ability to change these settings? For example the ipod touch has options to sleep after 1,2,3,4,5 minutes and never sleep. Thanks.

I think the sound is really good for such a small device. I don't notice much of a difference between the 6g nano and my 2nd gen touch. I do use better headphones. For exercise I use some sennheisers and also have a $200 pair of Dr Dre monster head phones that sound great! I do have the soundcheck turned on to even out volume levels between tracks.
I biked today with it clipped the left shoulder of my shirt. Yes...you have to hit the wake button to turn on the screen before you can hit the forward to next track button. Not too hard to get used to once you do it a few times. I do wish there was a way to keep the screen turned on ...maybe in a future firmware upgrade.

Ihome ip37 compatibile with 6th gen nano?

I have a 6th generation nano and today received a gift of an ihome ip37 portable dock/speaker system. The ip37 says I shouldn't use it without installing one of the inserts provided that surrounds the jack that the nano connects to. The inserts are obviously designed to cradle a nano or other ipod securely while connected. None of the inserts provided allow the 6th gen nano to be connected. Does anybody have any experience with the ip37 and the 6th generation nano? Thanks for any help you can provide.

You can try it without the inserts. Just be careful not to force the Nano onto the dock connector, and make sure you are not putting too much sideways or front-to-back pressure on the Nano dock connector. The inserts are designed to reduce the strain on the dock connector, but the Nano is so short in height that it is harder to apply leverage that could damage either device.

6th Gen Nano - Sound Check doesn't work

Hi
The sound level on my 6th Gen Nano is all over the place. There is a big variance in volume from one song to the next which is both annoying and dangerous to my hearing. The Sound Check function is turned on in both the Nano settings and iTunes.
Does anyone know a fix to this before my ear-drums blow out?

Sound check is basically useless. Hasn't worked effectively on any model I've purchased. However, as others have pointed out, you can adjust the volume of a song so that your playlists don't cause public embarrassment. Simply do a control "i" on a particular song. In the "info" tab, you can increase or decrease the volume of a particular tune. However, if you make the adjustment, be sure to adjust all of the tune from that album. Otherwise, when you play the album, the song you tweaked will have a different volume from the rest of tunes on the album. It ain't a great fix... but it's better than what the programmers have done with sound check.
