CD, DVD and ipod nano issues

I just bought a new iPod nano- the first I have ever owned. I installed the iTunes software and that works okay. I plugged in the nano to the computer and the computer recognizes the nano, but iTunes does not. When I open iTunes, I get the following error message: "iTunes Setup Assistant. Warning! The registry settings used by the itunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a sreult of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes." I have tried reinstalling iTunes several times and it still won't work. I did install the software on my brother's computer and it worked fine, but I can't use that computer on a regular basis. Please help!!!! Thanks!

hiya!
"Warning! The registry settings used by the itunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a sreult of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes."
for some advanced techniques for dealing with that message, see:
iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting CD issues caused by device filters
but if you'd prefer to try some quicker and dirtier techniques, you could try:
reboot and repair
reboot the PC (very important), and then do a repair install of itunes. go to your Add/Remove programs, select itunes, click "change/remove" and select "repair".
... if no joy with that:
reinstall the itunes drivers for importing and burning
you can find them here. if you're on a 32-bit system, use the first link on the page:
GEAR drivers
if you've got Norton Ghost installed, read the instructions very carefully. if you still run into trouble with Ghost, see:
Message: "Insert the "Norton Ghost 10.0" disk and click OK." after installing iTunes 6

TS1363 windows 8 and ipod nano issues

Syncing iPhone and ipod nano toi the same iTunes

I have an iPhone (16GB) and and Ipod nano (4GB) and about 9GB of content in my iTUnes. IS it possible to sync both these to the same iTunes library on the same pc. All the iTunes content is on the iPhone but it is too much for iPod nano. I use the two for different things for eg: the nano has nike Plus on it and I also use it for gym etc
in Effect, can you have 2 different libraries to sync with different ipods on the same PC and iTunes

Yes, you can use multiple devices with one library, I use 2 regular iPods and a shuffle (I have a friend who syncs both an iPhone and a Nano, she syncs each with it's own separate playlist). You can for instance have one sync the entire library and another sync a selected playlist or playlists. iTunes recognises each device that is connected and they can each have their own individual settings: There are several different ways to use multiple devices with one computer, you can read more heres: How to use multiple iPods with one computer

Synch between iPad, iPhone and iPod nano

When I buy music on ITunes from iPad, how can I transfer the music to my iPhone and iPod nano without using a PC?

With an iPhone then if you are in a country where music can be re-downloaded then it should appear in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone. For the Nano you can't, you will need to copy the music from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases and then sync it to the Nano (and similarly for the phone if you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded) - you can't connect either of them to your iPad for direct trasnfer.

Why is the Nike apps different on the iTouch and iPod nano

Can someone explain why Apple put different apps on iTouch and iPod nano and call it only Nike +. There are obvious difference in the apps. I want the app that stores heart information...but the Nike + app on the iTouch only records distance ran. Why not make one app that does both?
what is the deal and can I load the Nike + app that comes on the nano on my iTouch 4gen?
Will the Nike + app for the iTouch be upgrade to work with the Polar heart band and Nike + Gym?

Yes and Yes.
When I navigate to Notification Center in Settings from an iPhone 4:
Notifications view - on
Today view - on
Today summary - on
Calendar day view - off
Reminders - on
Stocks - off
Tomorrow summary - off
Sort by Time
The only apps I don't include are third party and have nothing to do with weather.
Usually when I swipe down on the Today view it's only giving me the date.
Thanks for taking the time to help me!

Finder Preferences, hard disks cd's dvds, and ipods

hello,
I am a little confused at this. In finder preferences under the general tab tere is a menu "show these items on the desktop" and selection is
-hard disks
-cd,s dvds, and ipods
-connected servers
i have selected Hard disks, why isn't my external drive showing up? It actually will show up if I have selected cds dvds and ipods....just a little weird
i was wondering if anyone had any solutions. thanks.

The labelling for the second item isn't correct; what it actually does is to show or hide removable disks, which include external hard drives. Changing this setting alters the value of the ShowRemovableMediaOnDesktop key in the Finder's preferences.

Ice-Link Plus and iPod Nano 3G

Hi,
I've been using an Dension Ice-Link plus and iPod Nano 1G in my Alfa GT for two years without any problem. Now I'm thinking in buying a new Nano 3G but I don't know the Ice-Link is fully compatible with the new Nano 3G.
The Dension Support hasn't answer yet to this question.
I suppose it will be as the base connector haven't changed but I'd like to know if someone in this forum could confirm it or not.
Thanks,

I use the Ice Link Plus in my BMW, and I can confirm that the Nano 3G indeed works with my system. Ought to work with yours aswell.
Must say that I'm a bit disappointed on Dension aswell... they could have done this test and written some info on their site. Buying the Nano 3G was a bit of a gamble for me =)

OverDrive Media Audiobook Downloads issues and Ipod Nano

Hi,
Yesterday I downloaded the OverDrive Media Console for Mac and downloaded a book to my Nano from my library system. The file is due to expire in 7 days. The problem I have is that I didn't realize that I would have to drag the files from the Console to Itunes in order for the audiobook to be recognized first before I had the console transfer the book files to the ipod. I don't have any idea how to get the files off now. I have gone under the device menu and deleted all the files off except for my recorded videos
Itunes now reads that "706.1 MB," (Photos-Yellow) "127.3 MB" (Other-Orange) and 14.07 GB (Free Space-White) out of a 14.89 Capacity.
The Ipod Nano reads that are 14.1 GB of free space.
Has anyone else experienced this and what do I do?
Thanks.
P.S.
If I restored it, would I have just corrupted files left on it and would the 3 games that were preloaded disappear as well?

Hello Sarah,
The Other space on your iPod consists on your iPod's O/S, any games you sync to it, notes or files you store on it externally (which is sounds like you do not), album artwork, and possibly corrupt files. So basically what I am trying to say is that there will also be a small amount of space taken up by Other no matter what and it is usually in Megabytes (MB) as your iPod states. You can definitely try to restore it though if you wish.
If I restored it, would I have just corrupted files left on it and would the 3 games that were preloaded disappear as well?
No. Restoring your iPod will wipe all content from the iPod and set it back to its original default settings. And once your iPod's software has reloaded, your preloaded games will come with it, so no worries.

Windows Vista iPod Nano Issues

I just bought an iPod Nano 8GB today and when I tried to connect it to my Windows Vista System after installing iTunes, I get an "Add new Hardware" wizard asking me to install the driver for the iPod which obviously doesn't work.
Of course, I've tried the 5Rs several times and none of them work. Asking here is my last resort.
I know there are currently issues with Vista but clearly this isn't one of those listed under the article on the site. So I was wondering if this is only specific to my PC.
Thanks in advance to whoever who can help.

Apple has release a new version of iTunes 8, in responce the issues with Vista.
1.Unistall iTunes via StartMenu\Control Panel\Programs and Features
2.Delete all previous iTunes installers.
3.Download iTunes 8 from the Apple website.
4.Makes sure you close Outlook and Explorer and all non-essential programs, as it seems to prevent the install at certain points.
5.Install iTunes 8.
6.After the Install is complete, Open iTunes 8 before attaching your iPhone.
7.Unlock your iPhone if it is lock with a pass code.
8.Attach your iPhone, after a few seconds you should see that it has installed a driver for your iphone, then the iPhone will appear in iTunes.
I hope this helps, as I did spend some time with this issue myself.

Vista Ultimate and iPod Nano Drag and Drop

I upgraded my laptop to Vista Ultimate (which it is not) and I have iTunes 7.1.1.5 running. I use a shared network drive for my music library. I have a 80 G Video IPod that syncs up with no (known) issues. I just got a new iPod Nano and iTunes will recognize it but i can not load music manually. When i try to drag and drop music from my library onto the iPod Nano the drag function does not work. Does anyone know what to do?

Make sure "Manually manage music" is checked in

I do have the manually managed option selected. The setup I am using is similar to the other iPods I have been using. I believe this issue is vista ultimate.

IPod nano issue

Hello everyone on the Apple Discussions!
Well Basically I brought an iPod nano for christmas, about a month later their was a problem with the screen (pixel issues) Sent the iPod back to Apple, they replaced it... but after I came back from my trip to france so didn't have anything to listen to on the 3hour train journey
The new iPod's been fine until last week where it just completley stopped working for no apparent reason, it was completley dead. I'm going to greece soon and the iPod probally won't be back by then...
I've allways been carefull with my iPod and allways encouraged my friends to get Apple products and allways respected Apple but when I tryed to phone technical support (UK) I got put through to Apple US support and the wrong department. So at the moment i'm really an unhappy customer...
Would it be possible to refund the iPod nano to get an iPod video (i'd pay the difference) they just look more robust and hold more songs.
Any help will be highly aprechiated.

Have you tried holding the MENU and SELECT (center) buttons until you see the Apple logo to reset your iPod?

ITunes+QuickTime installation from CD of iPod nano Issue

During installing the s/w from CD. an error regarding QT was displyed (something to do with files) and later the installation was over. When iTunes is launched get an error "iTunes have encountered problem and needs to be closed". and it asks whether you need to send the report to Microsoft.
Uninstalled iTunes+QT and tried again but no success. Also tried installing the s/w downloaded from apple website did not get QT installation error but still getting the same MS error. After clicking on the error report, the error signature part shows following information.
AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 6.0.1.3 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 10001040
Also tired to find simlar issue on this forum but no luck and hence posting this message.
Would appreciate help.
Thanks in advance.

After reading certain posts I was able to resolve this issue today morning. I have been working on this since yesterday since my new ipod nano was delivered, so about for 15+ hours on and off.
The problem started when I tried to install s/w from CD. Hence thought of downloading the s/w from the website. That also did not solve the problem. Then started looking at discussions where lot of posts mentioend the similar issue during the same time frame. Uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. Also went back a week to have my desktops savepoint restored. But no luck.
Hence when today I found a posting on this site about downloading standalone quicktime, followed that path and what you see, after installing standalone quicktime, iTunes got loaded, was able to see my new ipod nano in itunes and have already uploaded songs on it.
So whats the lessons learned. Apple still needs to come over the hump of making USER FRIENDLY SOFTWARE ( its that what APPLE is known for?).
Certainly I never thought that it will be such an exercise to have it installed.

More Mac OS 10.2 and iPod nano questions

I did a search and found that other people were able to get their iPod nanos to work using 10.2.8, so I decided to give it a try. How did you do this? When I plug it it in, the iPod just flashes "Do Not Connect" and when iTunes tries to open, I get this error message:
"The iPod "iPod" cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 7.0 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the lastest version of iTunes or install iTunes from the CD that came with your iPod."
What do I do next to make it run with the USB 1.1 ports on OS X 10.2? I have iTunes 6.0.4.
Please help! Thanks!
p.s. I'm starting to get really irritated with Apple. Leopard was supposed to be released late 2006/early 2007. I got this iPod back in Nov last year as part of a promotion. Since I thought Leopard's release was right around the corner, I held out and tried to be patient. Then it was changed to spring 2007. And I thought, well, I've waited this long; another month or two won't kill me. Now it's October 2007??? WTH, man. If I knew it was going to be a full YEAR before I could have used my iPod, I would have just bought Tiger back then. Torture, I tell you.

I didn't say all Nanos wouldn't work on the earlier system. What I was implying was YOUR Nano, which came out AFTER iTunes 7 was releases, has updated firmware that requires iTunes7.
I had the same issue with my two video iPods. My 30GB was purchased back in the iTunes 6 days and worked fine on my computer. A year+ later my wife upgraded me to an 80GB (so she could also take possession of the 30GB) which came out after iTunes7. So when I plugged that one in, it refused to work with iTunes 6 and required iTunes 7.
This is something Apple does with a lot of their hardware. For example, most Mac computers are ROM locked to only be able to run the Operating system they shipped with or higher. So you can not take my OS 10.3 eMac and try to load 10.2 onto it. It won't go. Same with the iPods. If the iPod came out when iTunes 6 was the release, they will work fine with iTunes 6 or iTunes 7, but if they came out after the release of iTunes 7, they tend to be locked to iTunes 7 or higher. This is why you often see the simultaneous release of a new version of iTunes when there is a major update or new release of an iPod model.
