Does iPod nano automatically turns off if not used in 2 minutes?

Does iPod nano automatically turns off if not used in 2 minutes?
this is the questions tha runs my mind bcoz I just bought it about 2 weeks ago and just this recently I noticed that it automatically switches off after 2 minutes if remained untouched even if i did not set the sleep mode. Well, it normally functions coz during playing a song it does not sleeps but by the time pausing the song and after two minutes the nano switches off, but if you press any key it goes back again and you can play the paused song again. is this thing normal? i am really bothered by this. please help me THANKS A LOT

I recently bought a 2nd Generation 8Gb iPod Nano and can state for a fact that if you pause a song for exactly two minutes the device will turn off, probably to save batttery power. I tested it three times already and clocked it.
However, I also noticed that my iPod also seems to turn off by itself (even when sleep / timer is not selected) when I'm shuffling through songs using the forward/next and/or rewind/back buttons repeatedly.
Is this normal, or just a bad coincidence?
I've tried the 5 Rs but the problem persists. It really annoys me because I have the habit of skipping lots of songs.

  • 6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black after a while. How can I solve this ?

    My 6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off (=stops the music) when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black for power saving mode. Does anyone know how to solve this ?
    I have already tried resetting, connecting to PC/iTunes to check the software version, turning off/on, I don't have any inspiration anymore.
    Thanks for your suggestions!

    Hi VeerleD,
    If your iPod touch unexpectedly powers off, you may want to use the steps in this article to troubleshoot -
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting (The steps apply for the iPod touch) -
    Specifically -
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    The iPod Nano battery will not charge unless you connect it to your computer, to an AC outlet with a wall adapter, a charging dock or an auto adapter/dock.
    You battery is always discharging when idle or shut off.  You should read the manual for your model iPod Nano regarding batteries - iPod Manuals

  • Why does my nano keep turning off and on when it is connected to my computer?

    When i connect my nano to my computer the nano says that it is connected and nothing happens in Itunes. Then when the nano keeps turning off and on while it is plugged into my computer. What can i do to make itunes recognize my nano so i can add new music?

    Please try the following:
    Move System Configuration Files
    (Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
    Go to /Library/Preferences
    Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
    Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)

  • My ipod nano 6 turns off when it fades to black

    Whenever i try listen to my music, and leave my ipod alone it turns off when it fades to black. I tried using the Wake Sleep button but it stops my music and fades to black. I've looked in setting to find a way to change that but haven't been able to. How do i prevent this from happening?

    Nevermind, i figured it out. The headphone needs to be all the way in the port. No shiny part, i was scared of breaking it so didnt think it went all the way in.

  • Why does my ipod nano keep turning off

    Hello

    What do you mean it keeps turning off?
    Perhaps it's an issue with the headphones. Make sure your headphones are plugged all the way in, meaning there is no silver still showing from the headphone's plug.  You should hear a sort of popping/clicking noise when you have fully seated the headphones.  If that isn't the case, make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris.

    The iPod does not need to be turned off to reset it. Here are the instructions for resetting the ipod. If this fails to do the trick you may want to try and do a restore.

  • IPod Nano Automatically Turns On

    Hi, I recently got a iPod Nano, however lately it's been turning on in the middle of the night and it's not due to the alarm clock or sleep timer, because those are already off. Also I've tried resetting the Nano, but it's still turning on, on it's own. Any ideas how to solve this?

    Oh my gosh! Mine does that too. Even if you have the hold switch on, it starts randomly playing which is really annoying since it runs down the battery loads, so I have to keep mine connected to my PC all the time. Has anyone solved the problem yet? Cos my warranty runs out soon.

  • My ipod nano just turns off and on when i repeatedly plug in headphones and the sleep/wake button is disabled while I have my headphones plugged in

    My Ipod Nano basically switched the function of turning on/off when i plug in the headphones. I found a way to beat this by plugging in my headphones an even number of times, but when I do this, the Sleep/Wake button is completely rendedered useless. As soon as the screen turns off I cannot change songs by double clicking, but I am able to change volume. The same is for trying to sleep the screen. I have tried factory resetting the ipod and using different headphones but the problem seems like it is not affected by these steps. I also tried to clean out the headphone jack and the result is the same.

    Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • Does ipod nano automatically pick up new purchases when I plug it in to the computer?

    When I bring new music into my itunes library the song is checked.  will the nano automatically pick up new purchases when I plug it in again?  Or do I have to start over?  I hit sync again but not sure whether I have to do that every time I charge it.

    Depends on how you have your iPod set up to Sync.  For example if your iPod is configured to sync only checked songs and videos, make sure each new track you add to iTunes has a tick mark next to it.  The next time you sync your iPod (assuming it set up to automatically sync), the new tracks will be added.

  • My 7th generation iPod nano keep turning off by itself

    My 7th generation iPod keeps turning off by itself. I've checked on the internet that i have to make sure the headphone is plugged perfectly and it's totally plugged but my iPod keeps turning off every second. I also have restored it, when it was restoring it didnt turn off, but when it finished, it started to keep turning off again. May anyone help me to resolve my problem?

    If you still not reached 1 year, run to apple store and change it. I have same problem, but during running and stop not often like yours but only one time.

  • Ipod Nano , wont turn off ,displaying "charging" icon instead

    Hey y'all
    ive been using this ipod nano for a while now,no problems
    recently updated it to the newest firmware
    anyhow it doesnt turn off now,instead when the stop button is pressed for a few seconds,the screen goes blank then the "charging" icon appears even when the ipod is disconnected
    also,when the ipod is working the battery meter doesnt show,
    and the "charging" icon is displayed instead
    i tried restoring the ipod a few times,no effect
    any ideas?

    Hi, my ipod nano has exactly the same problem---won't turn off, shows the big charging icon instead, even after resetting it many times, and successfully restoring/updating the firmware to v1.2. It plays music fine, but it won't shut off.
    What ever happened at repair shop, did they say what is wrong? Maybe I have to send mine to a repair shop too.
    Thanks

  • Ipod nano wont turn off?!

    Hi. (:
    I can't get my Ipod to turn off. The display is still onm but it wont play. Its like its frozen. please help!?

    Sorry, that wasn't exactly helpful was it. Hopefully yours is recoverable. Eventually it will pass out from battery exhaustion and then you can plug it into your conmputer. Start itunes. I migth take 30 minutes before it appears as on icon on your computer. Make sure you have the latest ipod updater software. Once the icon appears on your itunes go ahead and restore. You WILL lose all our your songs on your ipod if they are backed up in your itunes library. After restoring load it again with your music and see if it happens again. Hopefully that will solve it.
    e
    PS make sure your hold button is released or itunes and your computer will not recognize it at all.
