Evenutually received the packaging for recalled ipod nano 1st Gen

Well after submitting a request to return the ipod nano 1st gen on the 13th November 2011 and waiting all this time, I eventually received the packaging today!
I have been on the phone 3 times with Apple since then and this Wednesday decided to ring them again and the woman who I spoke to submitted a brand new request, as she said that I should have had the packaging well before now.  She then said with submitting a new request that I would receive the packaging within 48 hours, which I have .  I have just been to the post office (I live in the UK) and sent it off.  It was so simple.  There was a padded envelope and a plastic envelope and all you had to do was post the nano (nothing else) in the padded evelope, seal it, then put it in the plastic evelope and seal that.  You had to check the senders address (My address) was correct on the front of the plastic envelope, which was just printed up from the address that it was going to.  Then just take it to the post office and had it in and then they give you a receipt for it.
So now it's just waiting for the Nano 6th generation to be sent to me, which I was told I would be getting .
So if anyone has still not received their packaging, ring them up and submit a brand new request, if you have been waiting as long as I have and you should get the packaging quickly.  They must have ran out of the boxes that they were originally sending to put the nano in.

Hi Addicbaddic,
Here is a link to the Apple page that shows all of the iPod Nano generations. You will be able to see which one is yours and compare it to the 5th gen....

  • What is the size difference between iPod nano 1st gen vs 5th gen?

    I'm trying to buy an armband for my 1st generation iPod nano to use at the gym and every one I find on Amazon says its for 5th generation. Is it the same size? Will my iPod fit?
    If not, can you please suggest me an inexpensive, but good armband to use. Thank you!

  • Is my Ipod Nano(1st Gen) an affected Ipod Nano that is eligible for the Replacement Program ?

    My Ipod Nano (1st Gen) was produced in 2006 during week 06 of February.
    It states here:http://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano_replacement/
    that "Affected iPod nanos were sold between September 2005 and December 2006."
    I don't recall which year I brought mine...
    If I send it in and there is nothing wrong with it, I will be charged diagnostic fees and such. I want to make sure it IS indeed an affected nano before I send it in to avoid the fees and the hassle.
    Thank you in advance for your help !

    It should be included unless you already had the battery replaced by them for some reason. They won't ship you the box unless the serial number matches a recalled model and they won't charge you if something is wrong, they will just ship it back to you. You will get a 6th generation nano in silver, not a 1st gen.

  • Hi I was just wondering, if my iPod nano's serial number says that it is eligible, but its screen is not working, am I still eligibile for the iPod nano 1st gen replacement?

    Hi I was just wondering, if my iPod nano's serial number says that it is eligible, but its screen is not working, am I still eligibile for the iPod nano 1st gen replacement?

    Yes. They'll still replace your iPod. Several users have indicated that they have returned damaged iPods and were still given a replacement iPod.

  • For the iPod nano 1st gen replacement program what generation of iPod nano will it be replaced with?

    For the iPod nano 1st gen replacement program what generation of iPod nano will it be replaced with?

    8GB. Nice little unit when used by itself. BUT don't even think about connecting to any docks or other third party interfaces 'cause IT AIN"T GONNA WORK RIGHT!
    Both of my Pioneer car stereos have the same problem with both of my 6th generation iPod Nanos:
    The first time you connect the iPod, the radio recognizes the it and works. BUT THE NEXT TIME YOU TURN THE RADIO ON THE DISPLAY FREEZES. The only way to get it working is to disconnect the dock connector from the iPod and reconnect it. THIS ***** AND IS NOT THE WAY THESE UNITS BEHAVED WITH MY 1ST GENERATION NANO. Both of my new 6th generation ipods have been restored (several times) and have the latest firmware which, as of this writing is 1.2 and still the problem persists.
    My two Pioneer car stereos that don't work right with the iPod Nano 6th generation:
    Pioneer DEH-P4900iB
    CD-i200 iPod cable for above
    Scion XB iPod enabled head unit T1808
    I've made an AppleCare adviser aware of the problem but I doubt that this information will ever make it to engineering so I don't have much hope that this will ever be fixed.
    I would suggest that all 6th generation Nano users check it's compatibility with any third party interfaces they have and report their findings on this discussion board. Perhaps we can get Apple to FIX THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM.
    Apple are you listening??

    Hello! Not a problem, because you will get a Ipod Nano 1st generation as a replacement, not a new / latest generation.

    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.

  • Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement digitizer metal bezel for an iPod nano 7th gen.q

    Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement digitizer metal bezel for an iPod nano 7th gen That was broken (in 2 places) during disassembly.
    The lcd screen and digitizer were both replaced but the top 1/3 inch of the screen doesn't respond to any touch.

    They have 2 parts for sale for the nano 7th gen.  Ac adapter and charging cable.  I need to find one of those Chinese parts sites, they seem to have items that you cannot find in the states yet.

  • Ipod Nano 1st Gen Recall

    So i requested a Ipod Nano 1st gen replacement because i have one for the replacement program. How long does it take for the New ipod to arrive? If you did the replacement how long did it take?

    I got email today from Apple telling me that my replacement Nano its on the way. They gave me a serial number for new model. I checked online and its a 1st gen Nano, not newer version what some people were hoping for. To be honest I love 1st gen design, and if I get another 5 years out of it with new battery then happy times. 

    Yes.  There is no limit to the number of iPods you can sync with one computer, iTunes library or account.

      I have a problem with the headset of my ipod nano 4th gen. the right side don't have a sound. It comes in and out.  what do I need to do.. I am using the original headset eversince. I tool it to a Apple Mac Cennter and Taked with a Service Center Rep. And he told me that they can't do anything because they don't repair the ipod they didn;t even look at it. I was told instead to buy a new one. I was very disappointed.. This is already my 5th ipod though i am planning to buy a new one.. I still want it fixed so I can give it to my little sister

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

  • I have an iPod nano 1st gen. my system operative is windows vista . I just want to transfer all the music of my iPod to iTunes library like I was able to do it in the past I don't know what have change?

    Thank you deggie to answer me . You know, I don't know much of computers and of technology but when I bought that ipod back when  they came out 2005 I was able to download music from my CDs and from Youtube to itunes then transfer to my ipod and back and forth to itunes .  Then if I had changed of computer I was able to transfer to that new computer.Why I'm not able to do it ? There is a program(Sharepod) that allow to do that but it cost $35.00 but I thought that was free or it is because that now I have to buy from itunes only?

  • IPod Nano 1st Gen Replacement Program Problem

    I recently sent my iPod Nano 1st Gen off for the replacement program.
    I wanted to make sure I would be receiving a refurbished 1st Gen back, not one of the latest gens, so I called Apple Care to confirm this.
    I'm really fond of the 1st Gen and would like to keep it as a collectors item, plus mine was in relatively good condition as well (And absolutely love the scroll wheel).
    The woman I spoke to at Apple Care assured me that I would receive a refurbished 1st Gen iPod Nano, she was very clear on this.
    I sent off and just received a box in the mail with replacement. To my dismay, they replaced it with a 6th GEN.
    I don't want to sound ungrateful, and I do appreciate Apple keeping up customer service even for old Apple products.
    But I specifically asked if a 1st gen would be returned to me, which was not the case.
    I called Apple care again today, and they said they didn't have the stock and provided me with whatever they could.
    Had I been told there was a chance I wouldn't receive a refurbished 1st gen in return, I wouldn't have sent it off in the first place.
    Can't be too upset with Apple, but not particularly happy. Any advice would be appreciated.

    I just sent a request for the shipping materials today, and if I get back a refurbished 1st generation nano, I'll be more than happy to trade it for your 6th generation

  • Restored Ipod Nano 1st gen. and nike + icons do not appear in itunes 7.0.2

    I have a ipod nano 1st gen. I recently purchased the nike+ reciever and shoes and they worked great. I had not problems installing the latest version of ipod software version 1.3.
    On my latest run I got soaked and the nike+ receiver stopped working after the rain. Waited a day until it dried out and reconnected it to my ipod and it did not recognized the receiver.
    I reset my ipod and it still did not recognized the receiver.
    I restored my ipod and it ereased the nike+ icons from my ipod and itunes. I updated my windows software and reinstalled itunes 7.0.2 in my computer and still the nike+ icons do not appear in my itunes and the updates indicate that I have the lastest version of the itunes and ipod software.
    What else can I do to reinstall the nike+ software in my ipod and itunes?
