Connecting my Nano to Itunes...having problems

I just got my Nano the other day. I hooked it up to Itunes and put all my music onto it, and it was working fine. But today, I connected it so it could charge, and now it will only say "Ipod update is complete." It doesn't have the line below it saying "okay to disconnect." I tried resetting my Ipod and that didn't work. I also tried to eject my Ipod, and an error came up saying that it couldn't be ejected because it has files on it that were in use by other applications. So I don't know what to do.

Is the hold on by any chance?
If not it sounds like it's either frozen or a malfunction with the programing.
There's some good threads about freezing around here, check for those.

  • When you connect ipod nano to itunes is there a way to stop it deleteing the albums on it if they are not on my laptop anymore

    when you connect ipod nano to itunes is there a way to stop it deleteing the albums on it if they are not on my laptop anymore

    Yes, do not set it to automatic sync, and if these albums are purchases in iTunes, then you need to transfer them to your iTunes library. If you attempt to sync the device the music sync is one way, only from the library to the device. If this is music you did not purchase, but is on the iPod, you will need to get some 3rd party software to extract it from the iPod to put in the library. Touchcopy from Wide Angle Software is one choice. I have used it before and it does a lot more than music, and it works on both the Windows and Mac platforms.

    Repairing disk permissions is the first step in resolving this error message:

    Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities/). Select your Mac OS X startup volume in the column on the left of the Disk Utility window, then click the First Aid tab. Click the Repair Disk Permissions
    Also, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed:

  • Is the app store and itunes having problems? I cant open them in my ipad and I cant buy anything on my iphone

    is the app store and itunes having problems? I cant open them in my ipad and I cant buy anything on my iphone

    Have you restarted your phone?
    If so, try a reset. Press and hold the home & sleep/wake buttons until the screen goes blank, ignoring the power off slider if it comes up.
    Check for the app again after the phone starts back up.

  • Safari and iTunes having problems accessing secure sites

    I've been having problems with iTunes not being able to access the iTunes Store. I can browse the store but can not add anything to my shopping cart. I decided it was time to see if Safari was having problems with secure sites and sure enough I discovered that it can not access secure sites either. The only way I've been able to access secure sites is via Firefox.
    A typical scenerio is that I can not log onto my Apple ID. As soon as I click on the "sign in ID" link I get a pop-up stating that a secure connection to store.apple.com can not be established.
    So far I've tried clearing the Safari cache and deleting site keys from my stored key chains. Nothing helps.
    I'm running Safari 1.3.1 and iTunes 4.9.

    Can anyone help?

  • External hard drive connected to mac Mini is having problems and won't repair

    Hi,
    Thanks in advance for any support.
    My Mac mini (OS 10.7.5) isn't reading the external drive correctly and sometimes doesn't find it at all. When it does find the drive, some folders which I know to be large show up as empty (not always the same folder, I think).  I'm quite sure the drive is having problems and want to repair it, just so it can be stable enough to duplicate (i.e. copy the external).
    But it won't repair in Disk Utility because it can't unmount. I tried turning off Spotlight via Terminal, but it still won't unmount. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Hi Linc,
    Thanks for the reply.
    Do you mean installing it in another enclosure? How easy or difficult is it to move the drive -- and should this be done by a professional?
    Thanks

  • Unable to Connect iPod Nano to iTunes (On Main PC)

    Hello All,
    Trying to help my sister with her iPod Nano (7th Gen). When I plug this into her computer it has a popup recognising that an iPod is plugged in, but doesn't show it on the sidebar or go any further with that. ("More Info" goes to a support page where I have completed all of the steps)
    I have plugged it into my computer and its recognised right away. How can I get this to work on her computer?
    I believe the problem is on her computer and not a fault with the iPod.
    I have tried different ports, tried resetting (both PC and iPod), Factory reset iPod, reinstalling iTunes. Uninstalled drivers in Device manager and scanned for new devices etc.
    One thing which may be relevant, is that the device manager shows it as an "Unknown Device", but I can't get it to find the driver.
    Many thanks! Tom
    PS: Both PC's (Hers and mine) are running the latest verisons of iTunes. and Windows 8.1. When I plugged her iPod into my PC, I updated it to the latest firmware.
    PS2: Connectivity tests in iTunes on her pc does not find an iPod.

  • Connecting iPod Nano to iTunes 7.02 causes crash on Windoes XP Pro

    When ever I connect my iPod Nano (4th gen, 2GB) via my USB 1.1 connection to iTunes 7.02 it tries to update my contacts from Microsoft Outlook 2003 and then crashes. I can supply screen shots of the errors generated but I can't figure out how to attach the .jpg files to this message.

    I am new user to this site so apologize if I am a bit "lo-tech".
    MY PC is a 4 year old Dell 4550 desktop with 256 MB of RAM. I run Norton Internet Security 2005 and Webroot SpySweeper and XP Pro firewall turned off.
    I have an older IPod 20 GB and currently use a version of Itunes 4. I have never upgraded to any other version of ITunes even though I began reeceiving prompts asking me if I wanted to upgrade about 8 months ago when plugging in my IPod or launching Itunes.
    I have also just in the last 2 days upgraded to MSoft IE 7. My Itunes is now behaving strange and will lock up after sometimes only importing 1 CD. I have to use CTRLALTDEL to shut it down and reboot to get the system to start functioning again. I have considered upgrading to Itunes 7.0 but after reading all the horror stories I am very leery of this.
    I have never reset or restored my IPod, nor have I ever uninstalled/reinstalled the original version that came with Ipod.
    I would welcome any advice from the many experts I have noticed are using these forums......:( help pls!!
