I cannot get my new Ipod Nano to pair with my bluetooth Headphones. It just searches endlessly. These same headphones work with my blackberry playbook. Does Apple only allow certain bluetooth devices to pair? i.e. only the ones sold on their site?

I cannot get my new Ipod Nano to pair with my bluetooth Headphones. It searches without finding it. This headset works fine with my blackberry playbook. Any suggestions?

thanks for reply... I saw on the Nano package that it is only compatible with bluetooth 4v. Is that the same as A2DP.
That's probably the problem... it wasn't a high-end headset.

Just bought a brand new ipod nano and downloaded an audiobook borrowed from the local library. The book is there and playing but, I cannot hear anything. What am I doing wrong?

Does the same file play normally in iTunes? Do other audiobooks play normally on the iPod?
How does "borrowing" work? Does it require use of another app, other than iTunes, to get it on the iPod?

How do I get my new ipod nano to show up ANYWHERE?

I just purchased a new nano to replace my old 1st generation iPod. Windows does not recognize that ANYTHING is plugged in, the iPod will not charge, but it is flashing "DO NOT DISCONNECT". When I click "remove hardware safely" my computer freezes. I've tried the 5 Rs and also reloading the software, but nothing has helped. Any suggestions anyone?

I returned it for a new iPod nano 2nd generation

I have tried everything to get my new ipod nano to work with Windows 8. Do I need to install new drivers or what?

Got a ipod nano for Christmas. Installed already bought tunes on it with my computer at the time which was running Vista OS. Had to buy a new computer in March with Windows 8. Did not buy any songs until April 29th or so...but they will not show in my ipod nano. Talked with a tech and he got my songs into the new computer. However, after we hung up, I tried to download the 2 new songs into my ipod and it would not do it. I noticed that the "cloud" icon was not by any of the songs - only the word: downloaded. I am thinking that since this is a 64 bit computer that I need to do something else, but don't know what. Can you help me? Thank you

So you have tried a different USB sync cable and as well as plugging it into all the USB ports on your system? Did you try removing all other USB peripherals (excluding keyboard and mouse if necessary) to see if that did any good?
What happens if you connect it to another PC or Mac?

I cannot get my new Ipod nano to sync

I just bought a Ipod nano. I have downloaded itunes, bought a bunch of music and now they wont sync to my Ipod. What could be the problem?

yes, this is the Ipod nano 7th edition. It will say syncing on the ipod, but when it is finished, nothing appears on the Ipod. The music folder is completly empty

Itunes just wont detect my new ipod nano

my window xp just wont detect my ipod neither will itunes , i had an ipod shuffle before would this be causing the problem??? plzzzzzzzzzz sum1 help

Now, let's try assigning your shuffle a different drive letter.
Disconnecting your new nano, proceed with these steps:
1 - Don't plug in your Shuffle yet.
2 - Go to "START -> Control Panel -> Admin Tools (if you don't see this, click on "classic view" button on the left panel) -> Computer Management."
3 - Click on the "Disk Management" button in the left panel area.
4 - Now, with "Computer Management" and Control Panel windows opened, connect your iPod to the computer.
5 - Right-click on your iPod's listing there (after a few moments when it gets recognized in this drive window), and click on "Change Drive letter and Paths". Then the "Change..." button.
Here's what it should look like:
Assign your iPod the letter "M" "N", "O" or the like (further along in the alphabet).
For more details, see this Support article: Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive
Then, disconnect your shuffle, and reconnect your nano to your computer.
Is it now recognized in My Computer, iTunes, etc. or not?

HT1451 My 2004 iPod doesn't work with my new Windows 8 computer. If I get a new iPod nano, will I be able to sync my content from my old iPod?

If I replace my 2005-era iPod with a new nano, will I be able to sync my existing content? Currently my Windows 8 will not allow me to access my music, etc., although I can see it. Took forever to event get iTunes to recognize my device--lots of removing of Apple software, downloading again, etc.

You can sync from your computer to your ipod.

I have a 6th gen. iPod nano (15GB), if I want to get the new iPod nano, do I get a discount?

Not counting the 10% recycling one since my iPod works perfectly, I just like the new one better and want to know if there is anything apple can do for me, discount-wise

Well that's a bummer, thanks though.

I want to get the iphone 5s the day it comes out. Do you think the best way is to go to the apple store or wait at Verizon. I know when the iphone 5 came out here that they sold out at Verizon. The closest apple store is an hour away.

I want to get the new iPhone 5s right when it comes out. I was just wondering what you guys thought. Should I go to the apple store (closet one is an hour away and always busy) or should I go to my local Verizon store. I know when the 5 came out last year they ran out of the iPhone 5. What do you think my best bet will be??

There's really no way anyone can even guess, since we have no idea what sort of stock will be available and how Apple will distribute it. It's not impossible that your local Verizon store will not have any units at all on the first day, or they could have a quantify. We just can't know. If your Verizon store can't give you some idea, you'll just have to make your best guess. Note that people are already lining up at Apple Stores in at least a couple of cities according to reports, and started doing so earlier this week.

When I sync my iPad it gets stuck on "Finishing sync" for hours, do you think it's just a case of clicking on "restore" ? , Thanks

Same thing has been happening to me and I havent been able to find a fix. Itunes has basically rendered my phone uselsee. It wont see it, let alone sync it.

Hey, Jeff...
I don't know how I could have made my question any more clear -- so let me try approaching it the other way around, and refer back to your answer(s).
You've been responding by saying that it's okay for me to remove the Creative Cloud versions of my software, but I don't have any Creative Cloud versions installed! I'm not talking about that at all, I'm talking about the software for Creative Cloud itself -- I don't use it, I don't need it, I don't want it, and all it does is nag me, telling me that there's updates for it (Creative Cloud). I have the full Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard bought and paid for, I have no reason nor need to "rent" any later versions, I'm just talking about the Creative Cloud software itself that got installed on my system when I installed that suite of programs.
Like I said, I don't use Creative Cloud at all -- all it does is "nag" me, and eat up space on my hard drive. When I go in my Windows Control Panel and look at my list of installed programs, there it is -- "Adobe Creative Suite" -- and it's listed separately from "Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard" (of which I've only installed Photoshop, Acrobat and InDesign, basically, as those are the only programs I use at all at the moment). Can I just uninstall "Adobe Creative Suite" without it affecting "Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard", i.e. my Photoshop, etc. will still work just fine, and I can still get updates and stuff? And by "updates" I don't mean get later versions of Photoshop, etc., I just mean any possible updates to the software that I do already have (that comes with Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard).
I hope that makes my question a little more clear?

So if i had lost my ipod, and i had bought the applecare for my ipod, do you think i would be able to get a new ipod since i have the applecare on it? or to get a new one would i have to give thee device in then get a new one?

Applecare has nothing to do with a lost or stolen device.
You would have to buy a new ipod.

New iPod Nano... How to get best battery life?

Hi there. I just got a new iPod Nano. What is the best way to get the best battery life? I know there is a partial charge on the iPod already (it turns on and the batter meter shows it approx. 2/3 full). Should I plug it in a fully charge it first? Should I put some songs on it and fully drain the battery and then fully charge the battery and then fully drain it again?
How can I get the best battery life out of it? Are there any Apple documents to explain how?
Thanks,
Keith

There are documents, there are theories, there is folklore, there are opinions. I'll give you my opinions (but they are based on a fair amount of research and experience). The type of battery used in the iPod has a useful lifespan of between 3 to 5 years, and can be completely charged/discharged between 300 to 500 times. If you charge it totally, discharge 1/2, charge to full again, and discharge 1/2, this only counts as 1 total discharge, so don't worry about running it all the way down, etc.
You can leave it plugged in all the time if you want, because it's smart enough to stop charging when it's full. You can recharge whenever you want based on what I stated above.
Is there any advantage to running it all the way down and back up? There is an Apple KB document that suggests getting "exercise" like this is good for the battery on a monthly basis. Several people here swear by that, but when I have asked, the only source they usually give is the Apple article, or things based on that article. I've not seen this claim independently stated.
What is true is that you may need to let it run all the way down occasionally to keep the battery meter calibrated, but this has nothing to do with the actual condition or health of the battery.
Also, it's bad to let the battery run all the way down and then remain that way for a long period of time. Plus, if you plan to store this type of battery for an extended period (i.e. for a month or more) then the optimum charge seems to be around 60% of full, although it would gradually trickle down from that over time. Also, don't get it too hot as that's bad for it.
Is that way more than you wanted to know?

I have been able to trick my ipod into letting me in but I still can't get the touchscreen to work this is extremely annoying and I was wondering if i should just get a new ipod or what?

You need a computer with iTunes and an internet connection
Try:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
