Alarm in iPod Nano - White 2GB

Hi,
I am trying to get the Alarm clock to function as desired in my iPod. However, things are not working out.
Yes, I am in the correct city when I try to set the alarm and I have tried "sound" both as a beep and some music. Neither works. The alarm never goes off. After I have set the alarm, I also see the bell in the city where the alarm is set.
Any pointers as to why such behavior? How to resolve this.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Here is an extract from the Nano manual, which explains how to use the alarm.
Setting the Alarm
You can set an alarm for any clock on your iPod nano.
To use iPod nano as an alarm clock:
1 Choose Extras > Clock and then choose the clock you want to set an alarm for.
2 Choose Alarm Clock.
3 Set Alarm to On.
4 Choose Time and set the time that you want the alarm to sound.
5 Choose a sound.
If you choose Beep, you’ll hear the alarm through the internal speaker. If you choose a playlist, you’ll need to connect iPod nano to speakers or headphones to hear the alarm. You’ll see a bell icon next to any clock you set an alarm for.
I have not tried using this feature, and my iPod is at home, so cannot test.

IPod Nano white screen of death - RESURRECTED! :D

Alright, here's the deal...A friend of mine has a new iPod Nano and gave it to me because it had stopped working, and was hoping it was worth something to recover. Sorry about the long story!
It _wouldn't_ turn on. But, when connecting it to the computer via the USB dock cable, it comes on for a few seconds on a grey-whitish screen. Then turns back off, reboots, and tries again. Step 1 step 2. Nothing.
Although, 'Diagnostics mode' or whatnot it is, does work however. It would still be a faint grey screen, but whiter and more vibrant, as if it's saying "Hey, I'm alive! I'm alive!!!" and I can go through settings and make it (sometimes) change colors, and reboot the iPod.
I was thinking since iTunes never recognized it (It was plugged in the whole time) that I would drown in just for the sake of it.
Well, 3 hours later after attempting to kill the poor thing, it... resurrected itself.
I'm serious, it really seems to have unbelievably done it. When turning it on, I get 2 beeps, but no restart loop, the LCD stays on the white screen though, BUT, here's the good thing.
NOW, I hear the system 'click' sounds when using the buttons and such that it's going through the menu, good news so far! It seems like it because after the 'boot' sequence (it appears to boot very fast, strangely).
The good thing is (kinda) https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1517571?start=0&tstart=0 ... So I suspect that somehow, this method of submerging it under water, letting it dry, blowdrying it, and then leaving it in the heat, somehow restored the SD chip inside of it... possibly only for now... I'm going to use this moment to hopefully get all data off the device, and see for one last time if it's fully restorable...
I have the power! Ok, so I hooked it up to the wall charger (just put the wall connector on the USB cord) and it now beeps two times, and after about 30 seconds or so, I get to the main menu, screen still white, but I can certainly hear the click letting me know I'm 'navigating' the iPod. It doesn't appear to have any music on it, or maybe it does, but I need to connect some earphones first. Or, it supposed to be display the 'sad iPod' icon, but I just don't see it, therefor, I'm blind as to the status of it.
I likely guess it's the battery, since every time I disconnect it, it goes dead. Yep, just looked back, still on. Yep, still menu clicking. Yep, I can start it with no problems now. Any clue what I can try to do to resolve this? Obviously it's turning on, and it seems to be doing something, it boots, (apparently) so that's a good sign.
Please, is there any hope at all in this iPod? At all?
AND, IT JUST BEEPED 2 TIMES AGAIN! And I was just typing... why did it do this? (Funny thing is, how it still works!) Is that really the menu button clicking? That would explain it, I mean it only plays the menu clicking sound AFTER about 30 seconds of it 'booting' to the iPod firmware, so it obviously has some sort of life to it. If I hook up my earphones... Holy Mac! I hear music! It's alive!!! It's alive!!! Oh my man!!! Yes!
It has hope, in a way!
Atleast, I hope, but it works! Freaking amazing! Jamming to some awesome beats right now, some cool hip hop, sound quality you ask? Great, actually! I don't know how, don't want to know, but it seems trying to kill this iPod actually resulted in it being resurrected? How? Who knows! This is awesome! iPod truly CAN have 2 lives, I guess!
Cool stuff, I swear on that! My favorite song was on here too!
How to adjust the volume on the iPod Nano? I don't care, it's playing at full volume, and it's awesome!
The sad thing is, it still has the white screen of death, and the battery is apparently fried still (or needs a good 24-hour charging).
This iPod has been sitting dead as a dud in the storage room for a good 1 year or so, unused. And now it came back to life in a flash. Unbelievable.
I love you Apple.

Your problem was moisture. It was wet inside and sitting around for a year let it all dry up.
If you get this kind of thing happening, speed the process up by putting the iPod into a zip lock baggie with a dessicant (you know those little silica pouches) or even some rice to absorb the moisture. Let it sit for a few days and it should dry it all out.

Ipod nano white screen and not turning off

hi I bought a new mini pioneer stereo/dvd and put my ipod nano on it yesterday.. no probs it played.... but today i put it on the dock and all that it showed on the screen was a white screen with "ok to disconnect" on it... I took it off and now it is still a white screen adn flashing "Do not disconnect" I'm freaking out because I am not technically minded and my brother spent hours putting music on it for me
It is not turning off at all
eek
Thanks to anyone with time to help me

Hi
It seems to be ok now... I had to go out and it ran out of battery, when I switched it back on it appears to be fine.
If it happens again (hoping that it doesn't!) and i do the reset.. will that remove all the music that's on there?
Sorry for the ignorance
Thank you for the answer

IPod Nano white screen (frozen)

I have an iPod Nano (3rd Gen), and a few days ago, on turning it on, the screen was white (no Apple logo, or info). I have tried resetting AND just restored it. It shows up ok in iTunes, and I can even add music to it but the screen is still white / blank!
What's the fix for this? Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Alan

What happened to me was that I put my ipod nano the video one on recharged and when it finished i took it out and it still had the screen saying connected and eject before disconnecting. What do I do to get rid of that and get my Ipod working back to normal?

TS1441 Ipod nano white screen brand new

Just bought a 7th Generation Ipod nano and tried to plug it in and load music on it. When it was done syncing it said ok to disconnect so I did so.
After I unplugged it, there was a white screen that had a lock symbol in the top left corner and it wouldnt do anything. I reset it by holding in the center button and top button. Once it reset it said connect to Itunes to restore. I plugged it into my computer and the white screen came back and says do not disconnect. Not sure where to go from here. I have the latest version of Itunes downloaded and when I plug the Ipod in nothing connects or shows up in my itunes for it.

DId you ever get the chance to restore it? that would most likley fix your problem. This is a defect most likley so i suggest going to the link to solve your problem.http://www.apple.com/retail/
Sorry about that being a downer since its brand new.

4gb iPod nano white screen

My ipod is now just a white screen

Hello Lpool1,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3474
Display shows a white screen
Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
Best of luck,
Mario

Ipod nano: white screen and beeping twice

I have an ipod nano 4th or 5th generation. When I try to turn it on, it displays a white screen and beeps twice. I have tried the basic things: toggling the lock switch, holding down select and menu buttons simultaneously, doing that and then holding down the play and select simultaneously. Even restored it. Updated all of my itunes software. Still broken. What next?

Ipod nano, white screen of death

my ipod nano4gb went to a white screen, still plays and i can update, but only a white screen, makes playback by menu memory a bit challenging. any event, went to Man Beach apple store for repair, booked a genius, spoke with buddy and a replacement is ready for pick up. three days total delivery, 90 minutes wait for the genius. Great Job Apple! Wow!
also, on a separate note, while waiting for the genius, i was continually amazed by the level of customer enthusiasm in the store, even the genius bar is a "stroke of genius" by apple marketing. direct customer interaction, peripheral customer involvement, all genius's well trained and communicative. it was an "experience" that i spoke glowingly about to my friends and colleagues about for several days.
great apple experience!
(no, I don't work for apple. just an honest observation from a marketing manager for a less glamorous product line... marketing envy....;)

Yeah the same thing just happened to me on saturday. It doesn't look like the screens cracked or broken at all. it's just a white screen. I could still play music and update and all. Screen jus makes it hard to navigate. I contacted yesterday apple and they're sending me a box to ship to them so they can check it out. Not sure if they'll fix it though.

3rd generation iPod nano white screen

I have my iPod plugged into the computer and the screen is all white. Now my iTunes is still reading the device with all the music on it. I do not want to lose my music because I know I can simply restore it and have this problem go away but I never moved my music the proper way onto the device. Is there any way to fix this without hitting that awful button?

You could try holding the middle button and menu button at the same time until the phone restarts. That might fix it.

How do I get my iPod nano to allow me to disconnect?

I have a barely used iPod nano 2 2GB, which I use with Windows Xp and iTunes 7.1. It started fine but a few days on it refuses to allow me to unplug the USB cable from it, regardless of whether it's plugged into the Laptop or not.
It plays the songs I've imported into it fine but when I switch off, by holding down the play/pause 5 or so secs it shows a large green battery with a black plug in its middle and "charged" written above it. I can turn it off though.
I've restored it once but the **** plug just won't allow me to pull it out!
Any suggestions will be most welcome, especially as I'm out of the UK for some time.

Well, seeing as no-one online could resolve this highly complex issue for a first time Nano user - I had to go to my osteopath. He showed me that the docking plug has 2 tiny clips to press when you want to release. Of course, such a comlex piece of technolgy doesn't get a mention in the basic booklet and none of you guys could imagine anyone reaching such heights of technological details.
thanks anyway

Hello all,
I have a 14.88G iPod Nano that I currently use as my primary watch. A week or so ago I started to experience a blank white screen when I press the "sleep/wake" button instead of the watch face (I have it set to wake from sleep to display the clock). When I hard reset it, it will come back fine and the screen will respond and work as normal, as soon as I manually put it to sleep by pressing the "sleep/wake" button and then try to wake it the same thing happens and I have a blank white screen that doesn't respond to touch gestures or anything.
What I have tried so far to no avail:
Numerous hard restarts (holding the "sleep/wake" button with the volume - button).
Tried this: iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Changed the watch face to display.
Recharged the device overnight (without full discharge).
Since none of this works I'm out of ideas. Eventhough I have a 6G Nano it should no longer be under warranty since I was sent it as a replacement for a different (older) product.
Any ideas? Is this a known problem? Thanks in advance for any insight any of you could provide. Also, what time is it??
Regards,

Hey,
I have the exact same problem as you have described. I also used my ipod as a watch but starting from today, whenever I unlock it the screen turns white until a reset is done. Even a factory reset through itunes didn't fix it.
Have you found any solution?
Bah, this is annoying.
