Connecting my iPod 1st Gen to my 2011 Ford Explorer

I have an iPod adapter that came with a more recent iPod Nano I purchased (late 2009) and tried hooking the 1st gen iPod Nano up to my new Ford last night. The car does not recognize my 1st gen iPod Nano, but does recognize the newer iPod Nano. Do I need a different adapter? Or is my 1st gen iPod Nano just not compatible with my new car?

Okay - that's what we thought. If we go to Apple and get a new Nano can they transfer all the songs on my old Nano to our new one?
I'm not 100% sure, but more than likely they should be able to. If not, come back here and we'll try to help with that.
separate question - we also need to update our Mac notebook (now 4 years old). Can the employees at Apple save all pictures to a USB drive and then transfer all our itunes to the new computer?
Yes.

  • IPod 1st Gen Connection?

    So recently I got a iPod 1st Gen (w/ Scroll Wheel) thats 5GB. And I also got a Firewire Card for my PC. My iPod is already Windows Formatted. Anyway I'm trying to sync music to it on my PC. But its not getting recognized in Windows Explorer (not on any drive in My Computer). Whenever I connect it, it says "Ok to Disconnect" with the check and it recharges. It won't show up on my computer. Can anyone help? And yes I've already read this article entitled "iPod missing in "My Computer" or in iTunes for Windows."

    seems it could be problem with the firewire card's driver.

  • IPod 1st Gen (Scroll wheel) not recognized by iTunes

    iPod 1st Gen (with scroll wheel) will not connect to iTunes 12.1 on MacBookPro.  Charging when I plug it in, want to add music to it, but iTunes will not recognize it.  Anyone have any suggestions or does anyone know if this iPod is no longer supported by iTunes?

Thanks in advance!

  • Photos from iPod 1st gen to mac?

    Hey there I just found my old iPod 1st Gen and there are endless old pictures on it and
    i tryed to get the pictures on my iPhoto but the iPod won't show up. I have backed up the iPod to be save atleast but
    is there a way to get all pictures on my Mac? Thanks

    Since the photos were likely synced to the iPod, you need a third-party program to get synced photos from an iPod to a computer. Some programs are TouchCopy and PhoneView. The free iFunBox MAY work too.

    I have an Ipod 1st gen. and facebook has stopped working on it. It was work before.

    What iOS is on the iPod (Settings>General>About>Version). The FB app needs 3.0 or later.  You can purchase iOS 3.1.3 for the 1G by using this link:
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)

  • Why aren't there anymore updates for the ipod 1st gen?

    Because the hardware will not support a higher iOS.

  • Ipod 1st Gen will no longer charge or connect with cord only dock.

    I was recently given an ihome dock for my ipod. I've using it for about a month now and recently my ipod touch has stopped connecting to ANY computer (yes I have tried 3 different ones) I have also tried 3 different cords. I used an old Ipod nano video to test the cords and it connects just fine and charges. Is it possible that something has become loose or has malfunctioned inside the touch due to the use of the dock? I know that 1st gen's don't always fit with new docks etc, so I'm afraid I may have damaged something.
    Any ideas?

    Because once it has charged enough to be powered on as soon as you turn it on it says battery is at 20% and will not charge anymore after that, it just runs for about 5-10 minutes before the battery dies again. The battery cycles discharge/recharge daily and its not on the charger at full charge for more than a couple hours and is never totally dead for more than a couple of hours.

  • My ipod 1st gen battery went totally dead because the usb cable was defective. I've changed the cable.  now when i connect my ipod to the netbook, itune is not launching automatically and windows does not recognize it......how can these issues be resolved

    My ipod 32gb 1st generation battery went totally dead because the usb cable was defective.  I have since replaced the cable but now itune will not launch automatically as it did before and windows xp does not recognize it.  Nonetheless it is charging.  However can i resolve these issues bearing in mind that i am not tech savvy?

    have since replaced the cable but now itune will not launch automatically as it did before and windows xp does not recognize it. 
    Try disabling a/v software and turn off the Firewall on your PC.
    Disable antivirus software
    Turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
    Then connect the iPod to your computer. Launch iTunes. If your computer still won't recognize the iPod check out this article.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Once your iPod is functioning again, with it connected to your computer, launch iTunes. Select the iPod under Devices in the source list on the left.
    Select the box next to:   Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected
    That way iTunes should open automatically when you connect your iPod to your computer.
    And iTunes / Preferences - Devices. You can have your iPod sync automatically whenever it's connected from the Devices pane.
