6th Gen Nano won't play content longer than 1440 minutes

Audible.com now allows for single file download of audio books which can be sync'd to iPod. However the iPod cannot plan content longer than 24 hours in length. You will ned to download the segmented audio if the program is longer than 1440 minutes long.

Hi, just found this after Googling the same problem. I hope this will help other Audible.com users who like long biographies and the like, but can't play them to the end on their iPods.
My iPod Nano is a gen 7, and either starts stuttering like a stuck LP record or jumps back to page one of the audiobook after flawlessly playing a good part of a long book. I suppose it must be about 24 hours into it, as it didn't falter on a 23+ hour book. My laptop and my Kindle would play the books all the way to the end, so it wasn't a problem with the files themselves. The local Apple store tried reinstalling the iPod's firmware, to no avail, so they gave me a new iPod. I had the same problem with the new device.
Today I had a talk with a supervisor in the Apple support group who was sympathetic and said that she would refer the issue to their engineeriing staff and get back to me. In the meantime, I talked with Audible.com, and the support guy there solved the problem for me. All you have to do is sign in to your Audible account, go to your Library, and find the "Audio Quality" button at the upper right corner. Mine was on "Enhanced", and he had me switch it to "Format 4". That resulted in all the audiobooks in the library to be displayed as both a single file and as multiple files (Part 1, 2, 3, etc.). I was able to download the final parts and successfully listened to them on my iPod.
Nonetheless, this does seem like an issue that Apple would want to address with a software enhancement.

    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

  • Users receive "does not accept meetings longer than 1440 minutes" with MaximumDurationInMinutes set to 0

    Hi everyone,
    We are running on Exchange 2007.  I have a user who is attempting to book a meeting on a calendar and is receiving the error, "Your meeting request was declined. This resource does not accept meetings longer than 1440 minutes."  I know
    this is related to the "MaximumDurationInMinutes" property returned from Get-MailboxCalendarSettings in the Exchange Management Shell.  This value is currently set to 0, which I understand to mean unlimited.  The user did not experience
    this issue with other meetings and there are several meetings scheduled that exceed this limit.  I have included the results of "Get-MailboxCalendarSettings" and the email response (with some identifiable information removed) below.  Does
    anyone have any idea why this error might still be occurring and where it would pull the 1440 minute time limit from if it is not set?

    Hi Derek,
    I find related information as below:
    The default options allow all users to book resources if they are within the set policies (i.e. up to 180 days in the future, up to 1440 minutes in duration, etc.), and will reject all other meetings. In the context of resource mailboxes,
    InPolicy and OutOfPolicy simply mean whether or not the meeting invitation matches any restrictions enabled on the resource mailbox. For example
    MaximumDurationInMinutes value for the resource mailbox is 30 minutes, any meeting invitation longer than 30 minutes would be considered OutOfPolicy. Using the
    RequestOutOfPolicy parameter, you can manually add users that are allowed to request meetings that are not within the policy, and if you really want to lock things down, you can set the
    AllBookInPolicy value to False, and then manually add users to the
    BookInPolicy field, or more restrictive, to the
    RequestInPolicy field.
    More details to see:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2007/05/14/3402515.aspx
    I suggest set the MaximumDurationInMinutes parameter to a big number. Find a similar thread for your reference:

  • 6th gen nano won't charge

    I got my wife a new 6th gen nano.  It operates just fine...as long as it's plugged into my PC.  I can put songs on it, use the touch screen, etc. The display shows the battery with the plug icon on it, which I assume means it's plugged in, but not charging.  As soon as I disconnect it, the ipod won;t work at all. No power ups, nothing at all.  I tried resetting it when plugged in, but it made no difference.  I've tried charging it on the PC via the USB cable, on my car charger for my 5th gen ipod, and using the AC adapter, but with no luck.  Do i just have a bad battery or what?!

    Take the iPod  to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • HT4316 my 6th gen nano won't p/u any radio signals when I plug in earbuds

    My 6th gen nano doesn't seem to recognize the earbuds are inserted.  It tells me to insert them in order to p/u radio signals when they are already in.  How can I get FM radio to work? Thx!

    I don't understand why you only recvd 5pts, I clicked on "This solved my question", as it did.
    I had tried 3 sets of headphones but not inserted them far enough in, afraid of damaging my
    new gadget.  I was quite frustrated.  Anyway, I suppose 5 beats 0, thank you again and I
    apologize for points mixup.

  • 6th gen ipod won't play songs in order?

    My 6th gen ipod, The little square one,
    I have playlists, but it does not play the songs in order - so why even have a playlist? Did something in the updates to iTunes change this? Plus there are no settings either in my iTunes which is up to date on my iMac (Maverick 7.1.1) which allow my to assk for this when syncing nor is there an option on sad little gen 6th. (I soooo regret I wore out the battery on my gen 5 nano).
    Anyone?
    Thanks!

    Hey esmeglass!
    Is it possible that you simply have shuffle turned on while playing your music? Try using the user guide for your iPod, found below, to determine if shuffle is turned on and how to turn it off:
    manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1551/en_US/iPod_nano_6thgen_User_Guide.pd f
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • 6th Gen Nano Won't Work In My Car After Restore

    When I first bought my Red Nano, it wouldn't work with my car mp3 player. I took it to a Genius Bar, and the guy said he'd try some type of update. Whatever he did, it worked. Yesterday my Nano started acting wonky, so I restored it today. Now it won't play in my car. Does anyone have any idea what the Genius guy might have done to make it work last time?

    After trying reset, reinstall, blah, blah, blah, I got the wild idea to see if my Classic would still play in my car. It did. So I tried my Nano again. This time it worked. I don't know why, all I care about is that it's working again.

  • 3rd Gen Nano won't play certain albums

    So I got a 3g Nano for Xmas, and transferred all my music that I wanted from my Linux laptop to the WinXP desktop I have, and loaded it all onto the iPod without any problems.
    All but 3 albums play fine on the iPod, which happen to be my 3 favourite albums of my whole collection. The songs show up, and I can select them, but the song never plays past 00:00.
    I've searched through a bunch of topics here, and looked at the "problematic music files" thing, and haven't found anything to help me. I've also unloaded and reloaded the songs onto the iPod, and it still doesn't help.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    my new nano 3g stopped playing anything... music or video... stuck on 0:00
    this trick below I found fixed it...
    Good luck!!!
    The first thing that every iPod owner needs to know is how to restart your little MP3 player. Apple has a nice little tech note about restarting your iPod, and here's the gist of it:
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.

  • My 6th gen nano won't let me put my correct height in.

    I'm 5'2 and every other height works. It autocorrects to 5'1. I've tried to restore and update.

    I am having the same problem (I am also 5'2") and it has been a nightmare. I was told to return the i-pod nano (which meant having to schedule an appointment and wait a long time for the store staff person to assist). Then when I tried to exchange it for the same color they were out. I received a different color (which I don't like as much) and it still has the same problem. Tech support had me delete and reinstall software several different times and then finally told me there was a fix in the works and it would be available in the next update. It has been months and nothing has happened. I would have rathered that the first time I contacted tech support they simply would have said there is a fix in the works (and don't hold your breath). I spent a lot of time running around trying to fix a problem that presumably Apple already knew about and is "working" on repairing.

  • 6th gen nano won't recognize being rotated

    One of the features of the 6th generation iPod nano is use of the accelerometer, that it will recognize being rotated and rotate the display accordingly. Is this a setting that needs to be enabled beforehand, or would you suspect a hardware problem?
    Thanks in advance!
    Edit: You know what, I'm going to read the manual from now on. You manually rotate the display, for all those curious.

  • Does anyone know how to get a 6th gen nano to just play a single podcast and then stop?  My old 2nd gen did this, but its slicker replacement has this annoying habit of just ploughing through the whole list.

    I like to listen at night, but it's still playing by morning.  My old one just played one and then stopped - I liked it much better, thanks if any solutions

  • 6th gen nano won't go to sleep/white screen

    I washed my nano! I put it in a bag of rice for a few days.  When I push the sleep button, a white screen comes on that says OK to disconnect. I have tried resetting. The apple logo comes up and then goes to the white screen, saying Do not disconnect and then back to OK to disconnect.  I have connected it to my mac and its recognized in itunes.  It will let me add music to it.  I have restored it a few times and still the same thing.  I have tried to get it to go into disk mode by holding the sleep button and the volume down button, waiting for the black screen and then pressing the volume buttons together as suggested in apple support.  The apple logo just comes back up again and then to the white screen.  It doesn't go into disk mode. Any ideas?

    If the rice trick did not work, the Nano seems to be in need of service: Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    Since water damage is not covered by the warranty, you'll have to pay for the replacement:

  • 6th gen nano won't sync with iTunes

    I was able to plug in and sync my nano when I first got it. But after I updated my nano, it shows this message: An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identifed properly. I assume this is because the version of iTunes that I am using (10.1) is not compatible with the updates on my nano. However, this is the latest version of iTunes that I could get on my computer and I can't update to a later version (I have tried everything that has been suggested on the discussion boards). I can't return the nano to factory settings because that requires iTunes. I have tried formating my iPod, but all that did was erase all my songs off of it. Can someone please help me?

    However, this is the latest version of iTunes that I could get on my computer and I can't update to a later version
    Can you walk us through what happens when you try to update iTunes?
    If you get any error messages, let us know what they say. (Precise text, please.)

  • MacBook Air Late 2012 randomly powers off. Won't stay on longer than 2 minutes.

    I have a MacBook Air late 2012 model.
    Every time I try to Reinstall OSX or try to run any diagnostics. It wont stay on long enough to finish anything. Some times it wont come on when you press the power key. I just does the Apple chime and then it could be 5 seconds or 2 mins but it always powers off.
    I called Apple because the SSD was recalled for that year and the symptoms of a failing hard drive is random rebooting or powering off. So apple said they would fix it for free.
    I am not near an apple store so I took it to an Apple licensed Technician to get the new SSD.  I got a call a few days later saying that the SSD was fine but I need a new Logic Board. He said it was the most expensive part of the laptop and that sounded very convenient for him that I need the most expensive part, about $478.00.
    I would like to know the symptoms of a Failing Logic Board and the SSD
    I can never get a straight answer from reading Apples forums.
    This laptop was 1300.00 new and I had to buy it from my Ex again for 200.00 when she couldn't fix it. So im tired of putting money in a laptop that cant even run games or hold my entire iTunes Library lol.
    If anyone has had this same problem let me know.
    I'm afraid that its an easy fix and they are just trying to get more money.

  • Power Button Stuck on 6th Gen Nano

    Hi,
    If the Power button gets stuck (in the "ON" position) on my 6th gen Nano, and the device is less than a year old, can I still get Apple to replace it with a new one --- even if all I have is just the serial number on the device and nothing else?
    Or do I need the receipt, and original box & packaging, etc...
    Thanks.

    You are still under warranty for a repair.  Call Apple tech support and report the problem to them.
    Have you considered purchasing AppleCare?  Extends your warranty 2 more years.
