Connecting ipod nano 7th generation through car stereo usb cord.

When I connect my ipod nano 7th generation to my car stereo through a usb cable, (using a lightning adapter), I am not able to control my music through the ipod, but only through the car stereo system. The car stereo system won't allow me to play my playlist on shuffle mode nor can I control the ipod itself through the device when it's plugged in. I have to unplug it and make new playlist selections. Any solutions?

I am having the same problem with mine. I have a Hyundai Sonota and can pair with my Ipod Nano but cannot connect. I also would appreciate any help. Thanks!!

IPod Nano, 7th generation, compatible mini-stereo system?

We recently purchased an iPod Nano, 7th generation as well as a Sony mini-system and 30-pin - Lightning adapter. The iPod would not play on the stereo. I have called both Apple and Sony. Sony tells me their stereos are not compatible with 7th generation iPod Nanos. So, I returned the stereo.
Does anyone have a stereo that works with the iPod Nano, 7th generation?
Thanks for any input on this at all!!

Low volume on Ipod Nano when playing through car stereo

I used to own a 4 gig ipod mini, and I'd connect it to my car stereo via a stereo cassette adapter. Well, that little guy crashed after a few years of good hard use, and I bought an Ipod Nano. Only, when I play the Nano through my car stereo, the volume is really low. Is there any way to fix this? I'm thinking maybe the Nano doesn't have the same amplification as the mini, and that's why the volume is low, in which case there's going to be no way to play it through the car stereo. I've tried two different stereo cassette adapters so I know that's not the problem. Anyone have any clarifying thought on this? Please help. David

I use a cassette adapter in the car as well, and also have to adjust the voume on the stereo and the ipod to a higher setting than what I would when listening to a cassette or CD. I've used this adapter with another brand of MP3 player before I got my nano and it was the same as the nano in regards to having to turn up the volume.
In using the adapter in different cars, I've noticed that on some cassette players, I have to swith the auto reverse from say, tape A to tape B in order to get sound out of the adapter. You may want to check the auto reverse settings on your cassette deck, if you haven't already.

Car Bluetooth Stereo and iPod Nano 7th Generation

Hi,
I have a Renault Clio (2000) with factory fitted stereo which has just decided to break. I would like a new stereo to replace the old one but want to be able to wirelessly connect my iPod Nano 7th Generation (i.e. Bluetooth) as I hate using an AUX cable in my car. Which stereo would be suitable for my iPod. I have a budget of around £100 and looked on Halfords but no of the stereo's stated they would play over Bluetooth.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Nathan

You are looking for one that supports Bluetooth profile A2DP.

Ipod Nano 7th Generation Car Radio Controls via USB Cable.

When I use my USB connection in my Hyundai for my ipod nano 7th generation, instead of playing what it was playing when I plugged it in, as it did with my previous nano, it plays random songs and I cannot navigate to podcasts I want to listen to as the navigation is clumsy and displays file names which are meaningless to me. How do I get it to play what I want to in my car?

It does not matter, as i stated this happened to me doing both. Currently I am using it now with the car, I got a newer car last week. But I think when I get out of the car it pauses anyways. I have noticed that if pauses I don't touch it, it stays on the same song for maybe 1 day.
If I don't use car for 3-4 days, it starts over again. That shouldn't matter though, if I did turn it off? I need help.......

Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone can help me. I recently got my first ever Ipod. It's the new Ipod Nano 7th Generation. I have tried to synchronise it with Itunes but it says "Connected, Eject before Disconnecting" but nothing happens.

Thanks for your help.

I think the problem is that the iPod got set to Manually manage music and videos. It needs to be set up for automatic syncing again. Just unchecking that Manually manage music and videos setting does not do it.
In iTunes 12, select the iPod in iTunes (using the device button), so that you see the iPod's "management" screen. In the sidebar (along left side of screen), there are two headings (Settings and On My Device). Under Settings, click on Music. To the right, you see the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
Check the box at the top for Sync Music. That turns ON automatic syncing for music. Below that, choose the option to sync Entire music library (assuming your music library fits completely on your iPod). Otherwise, you can choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres and make your selections below. Then click Apply.

Can you connect the Lightning to 30-pin adapter and Lightning to 30-pin Adapter (0.2 m) to iPod nano (7th generation) with third-party accessories?

My iPod Nano 7th generation is not detected in Itunes

Hey there,
I have a iPod Nano 7th generation and I'm working with a Windows 7 64-bit version.
So when I got my iPod, I installed iTunes and everything went very well..
but today I tried to sync my iPod and it is not even detected from my iTunes or my computer.
I had the error -42110, but I found the solution on here, but it didn't work either.
I went through a lot of questions on here, but I couldn't find any solution for my problem
Has anyone got any idea?

well actually I did connect my iPod 3 days later or so to my charger, because a friend of mine asked me if I'm sure that the cable is not broken. So I connected it and it charged, when I thought "Well let's try on the computer again". I plugged it in and it was detected again.. so uhm I don't really know why it did not worked the last times.
So maybe try to restart your computer and turn off an on again the device and try it later on again.. maybe it will work then:)
I'm sorry I can't help more!

Ipod Nano 7th generation touch interface is now screwed with due to apple update.

Hi, I recently purchased a new laptop switching over from a macbook pro 2010 of which the logicboard died. In this newly configured windows 7 64 bit laptop I downloaded the latest itunes. I then connected my ipod nano 7th generation to it and it requested to format it since it was formatted for a mac. I did so and restored my ipod nano 7th generation. After this however my previously perfectly working nano touch interface (swiping, touch to select) is now completely messed up. This has to be due to the formatting and/or the new nano update or itunes update from apple. I can't even swipe to the right or left to move between screen interfaces on my nano anymore. As well the touch icons require double taps and have rectangular white selection boxes over each icon (NOT NORMAL)
Overall I am very displeased and want apple to fix this with either a new firmware nano 7th generation update or apple itunes update for windows 7 64bit. I'm thinking of buying a replacement iphone 4 but now that this issue is prevalent how can I TRUST Apple that nothing wrong will occur with connecting a new iphone 4 to my itunes on a windows 7 64 bit PC.
I am NOT the only one with this issue as you can check out for yourself: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20130727205241AAOmiuC
REASON FOR POSTING THIS HERE: I want more exposure to this issue. I couldn't get access to customer support since my ipod nano 7th generation is over a year old. This is cruel but whatever, Apple does what it wants and I will post this here to do what I want. Gain exposure to this defect that clearly Apple is not addressing since the above link displays a user with the same issue and posted the problem 3 months ago.
DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS APPLE

Hi ImAMinion.
Very good question. I should have explained that part. VoiceOver changes how the navigation functions so it's a little tricky.
From the home screen I got to settings by swiping up and down instead of the normal left and right.
To open settings I first tapped once on the settings icon so that the box appeared around the icon. Then I double tapped the icon to open it.
I repeated the "tap once to get the box then double tap to open" process to navigate through the settings menu. Navigate to: Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> VoiceOver -> set to off. Once it's off the navigation will return to normal.
Hope that helps.

I just recently updated my iPod Nano 7th Generation, and, after the upgrade finished, my iTunes library, playlists and all, vanished. How can I restore the playlists and songs to iTunes?

I updated my iPod Nano 7th Generation, and it wiped my iTunes library. I no longer have my playlists or movies. I was able to recover my music, but the many, many playlists I had, I could not recover. Is there any way I could recover them?

Hello apbvieira,
It sounds like your iPod Nano is not recognized in iTunes anymore after a recent update. I recommend the following article to help you get that in order named:

http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1369
1. Start with the iPod Troubleshooting Assistant
If you haven't already done so, use the iPod Troubleshooting Assistant that applies to your iPod. This will often solve your issue.
If you're still experiencing the issue after going through each of the steps in the assistant, continue with the steps below in this article. The most likely solutions are listed below (for both USB and FireWire (IEEE 1394) iPod connections). Check each section starting from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping your iPod from appearing.
Note: To determine if your iPod syncs via USB or FireWire, check the table in the Additional Information section below.
This step will get you started, but there are additional steps in the article if you need them.

How do you dowload songs from iPod nano 7th generation to iTunes on another computer?

I have iTunes on two computers. I bought a movie on one computer, but through a series of events had to erase my iPod on that computer and sync it to a different computer. Now, it will not sync the movie unless it is on the computer I bought the movie from. Because I erased my iPod on the computer I bought the movie, I have to download my iPod to the computer I bought the movie on in order to sync the movie to my iPod. How do you download everything on the Ipod nano 7th generation to iTunes on another computer?

When I connect my iPod to my computer, nothing happens. I've read the tips in the section "support" and I noticed that maybe Windows 8 is not one of the operating systems that are compatible with an iPod nano 7th generation. If I'm right, what can I do if my only device is a Windows 8?

Windows can't find driver for ipod nano 7th generation

I just got the IPod Nano 7th generation. When I plugged I in the computer will pick up the apple mobile storage device usb driver, but I get an error for the iPod saying that no driver was found. I have tried connecting to different usb ports and also tried uninstalling anything related to the iPod or iTunes. So, any help would be appreciated.

Ok I fixed the problem I had. I went under device manager and right-clicked the ipod icon, and told it to update the driver. For the update though I didn't use the automatic search. I told it to search in the location (windows/winsxs) and it found the driver. I hope this helps somebody else.
Since I didn't mention it earlier I have Windows 7 64-bit.
