Car power cable for Nano 4th gen

So is there no car charge cable for my iPod nano 4th gen? Car lighter to regular iPod charge connector, but with power through the USB rather than firewire?
(I bought a new nano not knowing about this wrinkle, hoping to use my exisiting car power cable. How frustrating!)

FWIW, after trying & returning several combined FM transmitter & car charger products that didn't work as advertised, I eventually got a Belkin F8Z184 like the one pictured in this Amazon.com page, which is just a simple cigarette lighter charger. There seems to be some conflicting info about what product the part number represents (some searches on the P/N indicate it includes an FM transmitter but it does not), but the one I got had both the "Made for iPod" & "Works with iPhone" logos & works perfectly with my wife's Nano G4.
It seems well made & is very compact -- my only complaint is it fits so snugly in the cigarette lighter socket that it isn't easy to extract it because it is so short, but that is better than the problem I had with some other adaptors being so loose they would quit working if touched or jiggled by road bumps. I liked the LED power indicator & an automotive type safety fuse accessible in the side of the charger, & since I ended up paying less than Amazon's price and applied for a rebate as well, I considered it a good value.
You may not find this particular charger to your liking but I strongly recommend that you get one with the "Made for iPod" logo. It is worth it!

Battery charger for nano 4th gen

since the nano 4th gen has altered its charging is there anything on the market that will charge this nano up battery wise while camping for a week ? as ezegear power stick one firm says not compattable while another has the nano 4th gen listed as ok

I just happened to come across something at REI last week which I used on a camping trip last weekend.
It is a solar/crank powered flashlight/AM/FM/Weather radio that is pocket sized. The cool part is that it has an output for a mini USB connection so that you can charge your phone or your whatever charges from a USB connection.
Here is a link to it at REI:

Help to choose (HD) radio dock for iPod Nano 4th Gen

Can you help me decide what radio dock to get for my new iPod Nano 4th Gen?
Desired features:
Speaker (obviously)
iPod doc compatible with iPod Nano 4th Gen
Radio AM/FM/HD
Reasonable audio quality (at a minimum)
I'm thinking of staying away from clock radio type docks as I suspect the audio quality on a clock radio dock is likely inferior to a speaker style dock.
I'd appreciate your comments - Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion!
I continued my search and also came across this one (Sony XDR-S10HDiP):
http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=1055 1&storeId=10151&langId=-1&productId=8198552921665480060
When I checked this model earlier in the week I could have sworn they only claimed support up to iPod Nano 3rd Gen, but today they claim 4th Gen.

Plugging Ipod nano(4th gen) in for the first time... Help

I have the ipod nano 4th gen. I plugged it into the computer for the first time, and itunes comes up. It then says you can register now or later I just clicked later(I am actually doing this for my sister, I have and ipod touch that I did the same with) But anyways, I clicked register later, and then it tells me that I have to Read and agree to the software(or something on that order) So I read through all of that and at the end, there is a box you can check to say that you have read and agreed. I did that, but then you have to click a button to confirm/continue im guessing. Well, my problem is, that my computer screen is too small for me to see the button, in other words, I cant confirm/continue and am stuck there, I cant do anything else with the ipod with out continuing this step. I have tried to Maxamize the screen and dragging over. nothing seems to work.
Is there any other day to agree and confirm to this? If there isn't, is there a way that I can get to the confirm/continue button?

I changed my screen resolution to 1024 x 768,
yet I still cannot see the confirm/continue option.
I have tried all screen resolutions,
and I'm not able to see the button.
Am I doing something wrong?
I really need to know,
because I need to use my iPod.

HT1338 Power cable for Macbook not working / Apple Care discount?

My power cable for my Macbook stopped working. I went to the bookstore at my school and at first they told me I could get a discount on a new one ($29 instead of $79) because I have Apple Care. Then they told me that was a mistake and I have to pay full price even though I have Apple Care... True/false????

It appears your Macbook is at least 2 years old. If you have the extended warranty and there is no physicla damage to your power adapter, then you "might" be eligible for a free replacement.
Have you tried replacing the duckhead adapter yet? That's the part that normally fails first.

Suggested sound dock for the 4th gen nano

Hi, I'm getting my son a new nano for Christmas, and wanted to get a sound dock to go with it.The nano is the 4th gen unit.
Q: Which sound docks work with the 4gen and will charge it
My price range is up to $100
The Klipsch units get good reviews but it's unclear to me if they support this unit or will charge it while docked.
Many thanks

The Altec Lansing iM310 speakers work with the nano 4th gen (both charge and play). These speakers are carried by both Best Buy and Circuit City. The specs that show up on a lot of the online descriptions don't say it's compatible with the 4th gen, but if you go directly to Altec Lansing's website, it clearly states it is.
About $80 everywhere.

IPod nano (4th gen) not recognized by iTunes 11.1.3

I have an iPod nano (4th gen). After upgarding iTunes to v 11.1.3 (MacBook Pro) I get the follwoing message:
iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod.
Unfortunately, I restored to factory settings, which erased everything, but each time I connect the iPod I get the same message.
It must be an issue with compatibility because I get the same message with my wife's iPod (same gen), but hers syncs just fine on her iTunes (v 10), and I get the same message using two different USB cables.
So now my iPod is essentially empty (factory settings) and as good as a paperweight unless there is a way to get iTunes to recognize and sync. If I could get past the error message, I suspect it would be easy to sync automatically or manually.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi JMfromMN,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. If your iPod isn't recognized by your computer, this article may help:
iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369
Since your wife's iPod displays the same behavior omn your computer, it sounds like the troubleshooting for the iPod itself (which you've largely already done anyway) can be skipped.
Cheers,

IPod nano 4th gen - Apple Mobile Device Driver issue

I have an iPod Touch that connects and syncs perfectly with iTunes but I can't find any way of doing the same with my wife's iPod Nano(4th gen).
Whenever I connect the nano it appears under Universal Serial Bus Controllers as Apple Mobile Device USB Driver but with the dreaded Yellow Exclamation mark.
I've tried:
The 5Rs
Different cables
Different ports
Disabling drivers
Uninstalling drivers
Removing all Apple software (in the correct order) and reinstalling
The only error message I get, other than the Exclamation Mark, is when I check the Driver Properties, it shows "This device cannot start. (Code 10)".
If I click on Properties, Driver and Update Driver, Install from specific location I see:
Apple iPod USB Driver Version 6.0.9999.40 (12/11/2008) and
Apple iPod USB Driver Version 6.0.9999.61 (11/05/2012) and
USB Mass Storage Device
Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what I can try?

The code 10 might be caused by old driver componentry "stuck" in the bowels of your OS. If that's what is going on, we might be able to get past this ... but I'm afraid it's a bit of a performance.
First, go into "My Computer". Go "Tools > Folder Options". Go to the view tab.
Make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is selected.
Make sure "Hide extensions for known filetypes" is unchecked.
Make sure "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in "My Computer", open "Local Disk C:" or whichever drive your Operating System is installed on.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
Open the "DRVSTORE" folder.
In there look to see if you have either of the following two folders:
netaapl_(LongStringOfNumbers)
usbaapl_(LongStringOfNumbers)
If you find either of them, drag them out onto the desktop. (Don't touch any other files or folders you see in there.)
Now go back into the "system32" directory.
Open the "Drivers" directory.
Look for either of the following two files:
netaapl.sys
usbaapl.sys
If you see either of them in there, drag them out onto the desktop. (Again, don't touch any other files or folders you see in there.)
Now restart the PC. Try a complete uninstall/reinstall of itunes and related components as per the following document:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
... and then try connecting the nano again. Any better luck this time?

Ipod Nano 4th Gen not recognised in Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Itunes and screen blank

Hello,
I have a quite old (3-4 years old) iPod Nano 4th Gen.
The screen is blank, which means it needs charging. When I plug it into my laptop/computer then it doesn't show up which im assuming is because it needs charging.
When I plug it into my plug charger (plugged into a wall) nothing happens.
I think this is because the cables (I have 3- 2 computer USB cables and one plug charger cable) being too lose and not connecting to the iPhone fully.
I have looked at all the articles, I have done the R's, I have tried to restore it, I have pressed the clickwheel and centre button together and I have toggled the hold switch.
If anyone can help it would be appreciated! (And please save the "take it to apple support" etc... comments for if you can't think of anything else- not being rude but I know this)
Thanks

Hey, I hear ya and can sympathize. I have the same
issue. The difference is that my computer can "see"
my ipod but it refuses to show up in itunes itself;
therefore, I can't put anything on the ipod (from the
computer) and vice-versa. Apple support is clueless.
This is very frustrating to say the least. Itunes
keeps telling me that my ipod is synced to a
"different" computer, which isn't true. It's the
same computer. The difference is that when I first
got the 'pod and used it with this computer (and
everything worked fine), I was running XP. I
installed Vista and after that, all the problems
started. If I ever get this resolved, believe me,
I'll post something here.
I'm guessing that somehow, itunes "sees" what
computer it's hooked to by "looking" at something in
the OS. Change the OS and it "thinks" it's seeing a
"different" computer.
Try reformatting it.

Ipod nano 4th gen stuck on apple logo even after restore

okay, i have an ipod nano 4th gen. it gets stuck on the boot logo, (apple logo) every time it tries to restart. i have rebooted, gone into the diagnostics, put it into disk mode, and even restored from there. the computer doesnt recognize the ipod unless in disk mode and no matter how many times i restore or reboot, it does the same thing every time. stuck. please help

Since you have the "exact" same problem, why don't you do any of the following:
If you have AppleCare and/or still under warranty, give them a call. If not, take your iPod to your local Apple Store or AASP. Let them properly diagnose the problem and provide you w/a repair estimate.
U.S. iPod and Mac technical support: 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273)
Every iPod comes with complimentary, single-incident telephone technical support within 90 days of your iPod purchase. If you also purchased AppleCare, then your warranty is extended for technical support and hardware coverage for two years from the original purchase date of your iPod.

IPod Nano 4th Gen - Stuck on Apple logo

After not using my iPod Nano (4th Gen. 4GB) for about 4 months, I try to turn it on to find it isn't responding. I figured it was completely dead, so I plug it into my computer to see an Apple logo appear on the screen, and I leave it to charge for about an hour. After charging, my computer still didn't register any usb device. When I disconnected it was stuck on the apple logo. After waiting for a while it was still on Apple logo.
So, I did some reading and put it into disk mode. Once in disk mode it was recognized by my computer, and I promptly restored it. After it was restored I reset the iPod. But, again it was still stuck at the Apple logo screen.
I have repeated this process three times, and each time I reset it after restoring in disk mode, the iPod is stuck at the Apple logo screen.
Any ideas as to why it is doing this?

his is not operating system-specific, but I want to get it on the record somewhere since I could not find the solution anywhere else.
Last week, my third-generation 30GB iPod refused to go beyond the Apple logo on startup. It would power up, flash as if trying to go to the menu, but instead it would just show the Apple again. I tried all the usual recovery methods: resetting (hundreds of times and a couple of different ways), disk scans from the diagnostic menu, restoring with the latest iPod software and with an older version, fsck, using Disk Utility to repair and erase, Disk Warrior, letting the battery drain, everything.
Nothing worked ... until I used Disk Utility to reformat the disk with the "Zero Out Data" option (in the Security pop-up) enabled. This, apparently, reformatted the drive in such a way as to account for bad sectors. It took about an hour.
After that, I restored it with the latest iPod software, and to my delight, it booted normally. It now works fine.
Found that on web mite help you.... but i dont have a mac

Using a Windows formatted iPod Nano (4th Gen) with Bootcamp on a Mac(Win XP

Hey I was wondering if anyone knows if you can use a previously formatted iPod Nano (4th Gen) with a Mac that has XP Bootcamped on to it. If the Nano is placed in manually manage music with the original computer it was formatted with, will it be able to accept music, movies, podcasts, etc from the windows on the Mac or will they still be incompatible?

Well, I have 4 internal drive bays filled already, is there room somewhere for 5th one in the box? I wasn't aware of it if there is?? My mac is MacPro3,1, early 2008.
That macsales.com link is interesting but I'm not in the US (I'm in Croatia), and all those brands are supidly expensive here, that $80 esata docking station is almost $200 here... bahh. For that price I may as well buy a whole new 3TB external disk, I want to dock the old one to save money.
I've browsed around and I've found Icy Box docks, which have much more reasonable prices:
BOX IB-110StUS2-B
ICY BOX IB-111StUS2-Wh
ICY BOX IB-115StUS2HC
They all claim to have OSX support... anyone have any experience with them?
