Attempting to connect a 3rd gen ipod nano to itunes that has 2nd gen nano..

So that may or may not have made sense, but basically what is happening that I'm trying to sync up my brand-new 3rd gen. iPod nano to a newly update version of iTunes that still shows that my 2nd gen. iPod is on there, when it got stolen 4 months ago. I've restarted my computer about 4 times and un-installed and re-installed iTunes twice, all to no avail.
I appreciate any answers that may come from this.

Oh, so you mean go from headphone jack to aux?  I thought I had to go from that new lightning connector to aux.

  • 3rd Generation IPOD Nano not recognized

    I have two 3rd generation IPOD nanos that are not being recognized by 4 different windows XP systems. One of them is a 4G unit that my daughter has been using for at least half a year. It is not being recognized when plugged into the USB. The other one is a brand new unit that is also not being recognized. I have installed and uninstalled the iTunes software and have the latest. I have reset the IPODS. I have double checked the USB drivers and such. Rebooted. The whole bit. The 5 R's +.
    On my system at work, they are not recognized either. However, I plugged in somebody else's 2nd generation IPOD nano and it was immediately recognized and happy. So this is clearly some kind of 3rd gen IPOD nano issue and likely some kind of software issue that has recently happened.

    Mate i have had this problem for ages managed to sort it with itunes 7.4 but i have the problem again.
    It is becoming very frustrating to say the least, and no matter what you say on these forums or the amount of times i have emailed apple i dont get any answer.
    I basically have over 100 punds worth of equipment on myy desk which is a waste.
    And no one is helping from apple.

  • No Photo tab under source list for 3rd generation ipod nano

    I have a 2nd generation ipod nano and recently purchased a 3rd generation ipod nano. I have the latest version of itunes, however, there is no photo tab under the source list. How am I supposed to import my photos?

    I am a brand new ipod user and I have not been able to find the summary, music videos and photos tabs. I have gone into every tab up on the Itunes tool bar and poked around but still can't find it. No such page opens up when I connect the nano. Can someone please help?
    Thanks in advance.

  • How can I delete songs downloaded from Limewire on my 3rd Generation iPod Nano?

    I have a friend with the 3rd Generation iPod Nano that downloads music from Limewire on her iPod. She does not have an iTunes and wants to erase all the music tracks on her iPod but does not know how. What does she need to do?

    Your friend will have to do this via iTunes. All she needs to do is connect the iPod to the computer the click the link to iTunes on the side bar, click "Restore" and everything will be restored to original (factory) settings and all songs will be deleted.

  • HT1435 my 3rd generation iPod nano won't charge

    My 3rd generation iPod nano won't charge and when i connect it, it shows up charging then the screen goes black and wont work. Can i get it replaced for a new one? or a different one? What can i do?

    Try these steps listed below.
    1. Run “c:\WINDOWS\system32\devmgmt.msc” (i.e. *Device Manager*), and leave it open for now for later use
    2. Start up iTunes
    3. Next, connect your iPod.
    4. Go to your iPod Settings and select the “Enable disk use” option from under theSummary tab.
    5. A dialog box will pop up reminding you that you’ll need to manually eject. Go ahead and hit OK
    6. Hit Apply to save changes to the iPod
    7. Quickly switch to the Device Manager window and right-click on any item within the window and select “Scan for hardware changes”
    8. Finally, switch back to iTunes, and try re-syncing your iPod to see if it helped.
    It might not also hurt to trash your iPod's Photo cache if it has one (i.e. you sync photos to the iPod).  See this article for information on where to find this folder on your Windows XP machine.

  • I have a 3rd generation ipod nano. I upgraded to lion. I tried to buy an audio book and download it to my nano like I have done at least 50 times before. Now the dialog box states that I need an ipod touch for the same function. MacBook Pro 2008 w/ m.trac

    I have a 3rd generation ipod nano. I recently upgraded to Lion which is causing lots of issues. Aside from that, I went to the Itunes store to purchase books like I have done at least 100 times before with no problems. Now I can by the book and get it to my computer, however when I tried to download the book to my 3rd generation ipod the dialog box informed me that to download any new audiobook purchases I would need an ipod touch. My ipod nano 3rd generation serves my purposes just fine. Why should I be forced to buy something I do not want just to continue something I have always done seamlessly? I know this is more of a rant than a question but I am sure someone else out there has had this happen to them. Maybe you could share your thoughts on how to work around this issue if possible?

    I forgot to add the last obvious and crucial step I had taken - plugging a different iPod into my system. It was also not recognized. That was the final proof I needed to determine if the problem was device or system. But now what?
    I truly appreciate any help I can get!
    Thanks again...

  • Can I connect my 3rd generation iPod shuffle to external speakers

    Can I connect my 3rd generation IPod shuffle to external speakers? When I plug it into an external speaker, it stops playing and I don't hear any music. The controls eg. Volume, play etc is on the earplug cord. Thanks

    Not for more than 10% off the price of a new one. You're better off selling it to a third-party.

  • I can't sync my old iPod to my iTunes library has been transferred in iCloud

    I have an old ipod (bought in 2007) which I've always sync'ed up to the itunes library on a PC without problem. After purchasing a Mac, forcing my old relic of PC in retirement, I've transferred my music library to iCloud.  While attempting to sync up my old ipod to the library that was transferred, the ipod only recognized the tunes that I had purchased over the last 5 years.  I'm not sure, but prior to attempting to resync my ipod, must I download the icloud matches first?  If so, how do I do this?  Thanks for your help!

    Found it!  I need to download the tunes before synching.  First, highlight the tunes that you want downloaded then right click and hit "download".  Or, you could download the tunes individually by clicking on the cloud icon. Unfortunately, I no longer have my entire music library on my old standby ipod, but that's ok.  I'll just download my favourite playlists.
