Does 6th gen Nano buzz or have built-in speaker?

I was thinking of using the Nano as a watch. I see myself using the timer and stopwatch functions while it is sitting on my wrist. But, I won't always be wearing my headphones.
Does anyone know if the Nano has a built-in speaker or at least a buzzer, so when the timer goes off I'll have an audio cue even when it's not plugged into speakers or headphones?

It does not have a speaker or transducer so you will have no audible clue.

My computer stopped recognizing my 6th gen nano. i have unstalled and reinstalled itunes. any other suggestions.

My computer stopped recognizing my 6th gen nano. I have un then reinstalled itunes as I was prompted. Still nothing. My account is up to date and my last purchase was a few weeks ago. Apple wants me to purchase @ 29.99 an opportunity to speak to a tech. Hoping someone out there can offer some assistance. Thanks.

Hi jim2744,
If you are having an issue with your iPod nano not appearing in iTunes when it is connected, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

The operating system for the iPod, album art, databases, etc. all make up the "other stuff". Think of it as all the backstage things required to make your ipod work.

Does 6th Gen iPod Nano need the Nike + Sports Kit?

I have the Nike+ sensor with my Sports Band. To use it with the new 6th Gen Nano, do I have to get the sports kit? Or is this feature built in like the iPhone 3GS and 4? The attachment to the new nano will make the form factor ugly.

Hi toffeepup,
As cocon said, you will need the receiver. Here are some of the references...
Based on the iPod nano Specifications page it looks like you will need the Nike + iPod Sport Kit (with the receiver) for the new nano.
From the bottom of that page, under "Which iPod are you?" it says, "Nike + iPod support".
Compare that to the iPod touch which says, " Nike + iPod support built in".
Also, from Rock and Run
"Then connect the receiver to your iPod nano. iPod touch, iPhone 3GS, and iPhone 4 include built-in support for Nike + iPod, so no receiver is necessary."
Note it does have a built in pedometer, and based on the Features page you can upload that to the Nike+ website. Not sure if that's enough for you.

6th gen Nano doesn't recognize "Album Artist"

I've recently bought a 6th gen Nano and noticed that while my iTunes recognizes "Album Artist" for songs with featured artists, but my iPod doesn't. It'll list, for example, "Matsushita Yuya" and "Matsushita Yuya ft. Sista" as two different artists in the "Artist" menu even though they both have "Matsushita Yuya" as "Album Artist." Both kinds of songs show up in the same album under the "Album" menu.
I've tried listing as a compilation, changing "Sort Artist" and "Sort Album Artist," but nothing groups the songs together on my iPod under the Artist menu while keeping the featured song artist.
Listing as a compilation and changing "Sort Album Artist" doesn't change anything.
When I put "Matsushita Yuya" in "Sort Artist" for a "Matsushita Yuya ft. Sista" song, my iPod just gets rid of the featuring part all together.
I've looked online, but as far as I've seen, other 6th gen Nanos don't have this problem.

My new (5 months old) 6th gen nano started doing the same thing, starting a week ago! I had to trade in my previous nano because the screen went white. Paid 150 for this one, now this again! I see alot of the same problems posted everywhere. Is there an Nano (6G) recall in the near future?
So where do I go from here?

Linking multiple Nike+ Sensors to 6th Gen Nano

Is there a way to link multiple Nike+ sensors to a 6th Gen Nano? I have the Nike+Sports kit with that sensor. I would like to link the sensor that I use with my touch to the nano also.
Please point me in the directions of the correct instructions.
I've tried to link, but the Nano doesn't see the new sensor.
thanks
marc

Hey Stan1958,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPod nano and iTunes. Based on your symptoms, you may find the following resources helpful in resolving this issue:
Windows
iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
iTunes reports that "iTunes cannot recognize this iPod at this time"
Thanks,
Matt M.

I have a 6th gen nano and windows 8.1. Itunes does not recognise my nano anymore. I have tunes to download

Yes that is correct
Okay. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

Does the 6th gen nano have a mecanical or piezoelectric accelerometer?

I know that there are basically two types of pedomenters: mecanical/spring action and piezoelectric. They maybe 2 or three axis acceleromenters but when it comes to sensors, its one or the other. One has to be vertical to trigger properlly and the other can be thrown in a pocket because it doesn't have to be in a certain position to work. Now this one says that it has a 3 axis acceleromenter but is that mechanical or piezoelectric? I don't hear a click so that makes me think that it must be piezoelectric but you know what they say about assuming things. I can't find this spelled out anywhere except that in the version that required a shoe sensor had a piezoelectric sensor in the shoe. However they say we don't need the shoe sensor anymore, soooooo....does that mean we have it in the 6th gen nano itself? I'd love to know.

Run-mofo,
That's great news.
The reason I don't just delete the 'feat' bit is three fold:
First, like Erik Dyson, I want things to work properly. Second, I like to know who is being "featured" so, if that track strikes me because of the contribution of the featured artist, I can find more information about the featured artist. Finally, I just like to have as much information accessible to me as possible.
Now, the question is, does my Mini Cooper (BMW) iPod control software will use the iPod OS to identify the artist for the "Artist" category or if the Mini Cooper software will ignore the "Sort Artist" ...

Is the latest update to the 6th gen nano a software download or does it come with the new watch faces and larger icons out of the box

Apple shows the new 6th gen nano with the new selection of watch faces and lager icons etc as per new update, but stores still have the 6th gen nano with just 3 watch faces and smaller icons etc. Is the newer spec just a software update that i do after purchase or does it come updated out of the box?
Thx

It should come out of the box with the new 1.2 update, but if it doesn't you can simply connect it to iTunes, download, and install the update from there.

I Just bought a used 6th gen nano. But when I plug it into my usb it says " an ipod had be detected but cannot be identified properly". I registered it also. What am I doing wrong?

I Just bought a used 6th gen nano and when I plug it into the usb it says on my itunes page "an ipod has been detected but cannot be identified properly". I have already registered it. What am I doing wrong? Is it a faulty one?

The following document might be worth a try with that:

Hello houseman06
Check out the troubleshooting steps in the article below to get your iPad nano back up and running. Also check to make sure that the lock button is not on preventing it from being un responsive.

My pc does not meet the minimum operating system requirements for the 6th gen nano. Is there anything I can do to make it work? This was sent to me from Apple after my previous Nano was recalled.

I think you've anwsered your own question. If it does'nt meet the minimum spec it won't work.

How does the 6th gen nano screen view from 2 different positions ?

Same as the current Ipod Video or "Classic" there is an option under settings to toggle between original aspect ratio or Full Screen.

I have the new 6th Gen Nano,AC charger?

Hello,
I have a new 6th gen Nano, and I usually charge it using the usb thru my pc, but I dont use my pc that often.
I still have my old ac charger (A1205) with an 5v output from my 1st gen iphone, can I use this charger for my new Nano? please advise.

All I need is fact.
The fact of the matter is you won't know unless you at least try it just as the previous poster suggested that you do!
If you are worried about damaging your iPod, post in the iPhone forum area, call Apple Care, iPod tech support and read the user manual for the proper equipment to use.
