do you need a converter to charge Ipod Nano (5th gen) using a non-Apple wall charger/adapter plug in Switzerland? or is the Ipod Nano dual-voltage?

None of the iDevices are multi-voltage themselves...the chargers from Apple are all 110-240 volt. You will have to look at the non-Apple charger you have and see if it says it handles 110-240 volts. Most made today are capable of that range, or they would have to make a different item for each country.
All you probably need is a plug-pin converter, can find those in the airport, at least in Zurich, don't know about Geneva.

I'm not sure if it charged when I hooked it up to my roommate's computer, but it definately didn't register either. If I put it on the dock it plays so the port is fine, but that still doesn't help me sync it to my computer.

Using an non apple wall charger to charge my ipad

...or whatever its called. I had one of those nifty white boxes for each my Iphone and my Ipad2 I can find neither, and my computer "won't charge my ipad" ie after my friend helped me research here I discovered it will but at a snails pace.
I currently did find a DLO DLA96464 usb unit.
The specs on the back are as follows:
Input- 100-240V~0.2A(max)
Frequency 50-60 Hz
Output 1a===== 1A 5W
Will this be safe to charge my Ipad2 with. I am not OVERLY worried about how FAST it will charge, but I don't want to over charge or burn out the power unit on my Ipad2 I don't want to use this device if it is going to f-up my ipad rather than charge it lol
If anyone can help me that would be great. If not I guess I'll go out and buy one from the geek squad at best buy but I'd like to save the 30 bucks or whatever it is going to cost if I can....safely.
Thanks!

"The specs on the back are as follows:

In order you posted
The input voltage (100-240V)
The input voltage frequency (50-60 Hz)
The Output power in amps (1a) and watts (5w)
The output voltage (which is what you need to know to assess whether the unit is 'safe' to connect to your device) is not included
Buy from Apple if you are unsure of the difference between voltage and power

Can you play the song in iTunes?
If you can't the song file is probably corrupt and needs to be replaced.

Ipod nano 5th gen - works fine when plugged in either to wall or computer and appears to be fully charged but as soon as it is unplugged screen goes blank and will not start - is the battery shot?

Yes, your battery is likely toast and in need of replacement. Not much else for troubleshooting here. Sorry.

My iPod Nano 5th gen is broken, and I need some help fixing it!

I have a iPod Nano 5th gen, and it is currently broken. When I play a song it usually pops up and at the bottom it shows the length of the song. Now when I play music it pops up and at the bottom it shows the volume control. I tried to switch it back by hitting the central circle button, but it immediately switched it back to volume control. Sometimes the menu button will work but now I usually have to hit the menu button a few times for it to work. I have run out of ideas so if anyone has some please share. Thanks!

You need to get it serviced. The click wheel is damaged.

Can I use my Samsung Wall USB charger to charge iPod Nano (6th gen)? (output is 5.0V, 0.7A)

Can I use my Samsung Wall USB charger to charge iPod Nano (6th gen)? (output is 5.0V, 0.7A)

My biggest concern is that it will fry the circuitry. I don't know what the Amp output is on the Mac-branded wall charger, but I think that USB 2.0 usually only goes up to 0.5A.

Quick answer is: You can if it works, but it is not recommended.
Hope this helps.

HT3965 How do you change the name of an ipod nano (6th gen.) in iTunes 11?

How do you change the name of an ipod nano (6th gen.) in iTunes 11? Note there was an explanation for iTunes 10, but the software does not work the same way in iTunes 11.

Click the shaded box on the top left on itunes 11. Then click show menu bar. From there click the one that says view on the menu bar. Then click show sidebar. Then click on the devices name when connected. Click change device named.

IPod Nano (5th gen, 16GB) syncing some albums, but not others...?

Hello! I am new to the world of iPods, so please bear with me.
I recently purchased an iPod Nano (5th gen, 16GB) and figured out how to sync it with iTunes. Unfortunately, it seems to only sync up with select albums in my library. I know that in order for an album to sync there needs to be check marks next to each song, which I did, but after I sync it I browse my iPod and find that only (roughly) half of the albums I indicated actually show up on my iPod. For example, I was able to sync albums by The Afghan Whigs, Bryan Ferry, and Berlin just fine, but for some reason I was not able to sync certain albums by Autechre, Low, or King Black Acid.
What gives?? I will note that I am using the Windows 7 release candidate - hopefully this has nothing to do with it.

Hello livoryy
It sounds like the battery just does not hold a charge. Check out the page below and look at the battery replacement section to get all the answers to what you are asking.

IPod Nano 5th Gen memory issues?

Hello. My iPod Nano 5th gen is great, and I've been able to use it for 2 years now, and it serves me well. Perfect condition since the day I got it. However, there are some memory issues...
First off, I have only two recorded videos totaling 1 minute and 29 seconds, so it shouldn't take up much memory at all. And I don't have any other videos on my iPod either.
Well, when I go to "About" under "Settings", then it always says that there are only 902 MB left, and it's an 8 GB. What's weirder is that it says that 6.1 GB are being used my audio, and I only have 712 songs. When I select all of the songs that are on my iPod on my PC, then it tells me that it totals to only 3.53 GB. Kinda weird, and I really need this extra space now.
Secondly, I should tell you that I don't use iTunes to syncronize my iPod. I use a third-party program called CopyTrans Manager because it's simpler, easier to navigate, and faster in my opinion. Idk what it is, but it's bothering me. Hopefully some of you can tell me where I can go to eliminate these issues and finally get my iPod back to better use and full memory.
Help me please. I don't know where to go next...
Thankee.

I don't use iTunes to syncronize my iPod. I use a third-party program called CopyTrans Manager
Contact the manufacturer. Check with them to determine if the issue is with them.

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting? After leaving the Nano to sit and charge for at least 30 minutes, try resetting it by pressing and holding both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. You'll want to make sure the Hold Switch is not in the On position as well.

My ipod nano 5th gen. won't play movies or tv shows but it plays them on itunes. When I click on it the screen flashes black. I have tried taking the videos off my ipod and then putting them back on but it still won't work. what should i do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
