Can you play videos on ipod nano??

i bought a rob thomas video from itunes thinking it would play on it. did i just waste $1.99??

Your $1.99 isn't wasted if you watch it full screen in iTunes.
Your $1.99 isn't wasted if you spend $299 on the VIDEO iPod.
The nano does not do video. There is no room for a video chip - that's how Apple keep it so small.

  • Since I love the Genius-Mixes I'd really like to convert them into a playlist that I can also play on my iPod-Nano.  Is there a solution?

    Have you tried resetting your iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Can you track 7th generation ipod nano

    Can you track 7th generation ipod nano?

    No, only the iPod Touch, iPad and iPhone iOS devices are able to contact iCloud where the tracking takes place.

  • Can't see videos on ipod nano - why did it let me purchase if its not compatible?  7th generation

    New 7th generation ipod nano.  Purchased some videos on itunes, but can't play them on ipod - says it's uncompatible.  First ipod - why did it let me purchase them if I can't play them on my device?

    If the iPod is set to auto transfer, then the songs on your iPod would be removed if you were deleting them from the iTunes library after putting them on the iPod.
    If you have the iPod set to manual transfer of songs, the songs already on your iPod should not be removed each time you add new ones (even if you were to delete them from iTunes afterwards.
    The directions in the manual don't match the summary screen if you are using the latest iTunes version 7.0.1.
    If there's no particular reason you want to transfer songs manually, then try the auto method again and post back if you encounter problems.

  • Can't play video on iPod

    I have a video iPod (black version) and I downloaded a TV show yesterday from iTunes Music Store to my G5 and synced to my iPod. I was watching the episode on my iPod last night and it got about halfway through and froze. I tried several times, even after turning off the iPod and it continues to freeze in the same spot. I play the video on my computer and it plays through without a problem. Any ideas on how to make the video play fluidly on my iPod?

    Hi JlJ123,
    Which software version on your iPod are you using? It should be 1.1.1 (latest at present) for the 5th Generation Video iPod. Try to update this first through Apple download. Also, try to update iTunes to 6.0.4 (3) (latest at present).
    As for the Video file, the iPod Video can only play MP4 or H263 format (encoded by Quicktime). However, since you bought it through iTunes store so I assume they are in these formats. Anyway, do a check on the Video files using Quicktime. What about the other Video clips? iPod can play other ones?
    Finally, you can try to soft-reset your iPod by pressing and hold at the same time Center + Menu buttons for about 6-10 seconds, until you see the Apple icon appears again (it will disappear when you press those buttons)
    Cheers

  • How can you transfer photos from iPod Nano to new iMac?

    My friend has an ipod nano. Here's a photo, not sure what gen. it is.
    He had a PC that no longer works and has no data left on it. His original iPod Photos were stored on that PC that no longer works.
    He has since purchased an iMac and is running Lion OS X, all up to date.
    The problem: He NO LONGER has the ORIGINAL PHOTOS, only the ones on his iPod Nano, that used to work with his PC, which no longer functions.
    He would like to copy the photos stored on his iPod Nano, to his new iMac.
    Using finder, he went to Device, then clicked PHOTOS and dragged the folder to his desktop. It said there was 1.43 GB of content.
    However, all that was saved to the desktop was (see other photo) Photo Cache, Photo Database and Thumbs. There are no photos at all. What is he doing wrong? Thanks.

    There are a number programs out there for recovering photos from an iPod, have a look at the ones below. If you search the internet you can find more. Just be aware that what you'll be recovering will be photos optimised for the iPod so they won't be the same quality as the original full resolution versions:
    iPodPhotoCopy Windows only
    CopyPodPhoto Windows only
    Tansee iPod Transfer Photo Windows only
    iPod Photo Liberator Mac & Windows
    TouchCopy Mac and Windows Versions (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    If you have full resolution copies of the photos on the iPod have a look here: Apple Knowledge Base article - Use Disk Mode to copy photos from iPod

  • Suddenly can't play video on ipod but everything else works. Any ideas??

    Strange. I reset my ipod classic 80 GB several times but still nada. The window display is fine for all my music but when I press to play a movie or video the screen goes black and doesn't shut down. When I connect the ipod to my XP computer, and play the videos from my ipod onto quicktime, they play. But disconnect and try to watch from the ipod screen and nothing. They worked before just fine.
    Any ideas what's up?

    Thanks for the reply. The videos are MPEG 4 and where converted for ipod. I've used them on my ipod for a half year and all has been fine. The other day I loaded some podcasts into my ipod including some video podcasts and then when I went to watch the screen goes black but is still on. The only thing I can do is reset my ipod to turn it on. If I only listen to music or audio podcasts then everything is fine. Pictures are fine too.
    I got fed up and finally did a Restore. It still does the exact same thing. Music is all good but the videos don't work. Not even video podcasts. The ipod freezes and requires a reset to boot it up again. Really strange.
    Any ideas??

  • HT4316 can you listen to the ipod nano radio on a portable speaker, ie, not head/earphones

    Does anyone know if its possible to listen to the ipod nano radio on a portable speaker, and not head/earphones.  I know that the head/earphones act as a antenna, but if plugged into a small portable speaker, does that also work as an antenna?

  • Can't play videos on ipod classic

    I'm unable to play mp4 videos on my iPod Classic. I can play them fine in my iTunes library on my computer, and they are loaded onto my iPod.  But when I click to play the videos nothing happens (I get a black screen for a moment, then nothing).  I've dowloaded the latest version of iTunes and not sure what else to try.  Any suggestions welcome, thanks.

  • My iPod touch 5th gen can't play videos?

    I've had my iPod touch 5th gen since Christmas Eve and I haven't had any problems with it, but a few days ago it stopped playing videos and now - even though I have turned it off and back on and turned the wifi off and back on again - it still can't play videos off any site, Facebook, dailymotion, YouTube, nothing. But I can view webpages and get Internet connection just fine!!
    So if you know what I could do to fix it please help because it's very frustrating!!! Thanks

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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 network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - 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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
