FAQ Richiamo iPod nano 1g

Visto che il thread italiano sul richiao ipod nano è diventato molto popolare, e che tante persone non hanno tempo/voglia di leggere tutti i post, cerco di ricapitolare in questo nuovo thread alcune delle domande più chieste, con relativa risposta!
Ho aderito al programma, il mio status è ancora "Empty box shipped", cosa devo fare?
Solitamente la busta arriva a casa in un tempo medio di 10/15 giorni, ma su questo forum alcune persone hanno raccontato di averla ricevuta anche dopo oltre un mese. Da alcune testimonianze la migliore soluzione al momento sembra quella di chiamare il supporto apple(NON al numero a pagamento ma alla express line, spiegherò più avanti), chiedere di farsi chiudere la pratica e di aprirne un'altra, sperando stavolta di essere più fortunati nella ricezione della busta
Ho ricevuto la busta, cosa devo fare?
All'interno si trovano delle istruzioni su come spedire inidtero la busta CON SOLO L'IPOD NANO.
Ho spedito la busta, cosa succede adesso?
Il giorno lavorativo successivo alla spedizione l'ipod raggiunge l'olanda, centro europeo apple.L'ipod viene ricevuto, viene "identificato il problema" e viene programmata la sostituzione del prodotto.
Ho ancora il mio status fermo al passaggio1.
Passano di solito 7/10 giorni prima che il vostro stato di riparazione online venga aggiornato. Qualche volta non viene nemmeno aggiornato, quindi il consiglio è fare riferimento sulle mail che ricevete da apple.O al limite chiamare di nuovo apple tramite express line
Come chiamo apple(NON SPENDENDO)?
In Italia abbiamo un numero a pagamento, e il tempo di attesa è lungo, quindi onde evitare di spendere un patrimonio e ottenere risposte insoddisfacenti, la soluzione è cliccare qui https://expresslane.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.do?PRKEYS=PF3, scegliere ipod nano->domande non tecniche->domande siullo stato della riparazione, mettere il vostro numero di cellulare e aspettare di essere richiamati. (grazie a qw3rty per la segnalazione)
Quanto tempo ci vuole per la spedizione del nuovo ipod?
I tempi sembrano essersi parecchio ridotti, passa circa una settimana dal prodotto di sostituzione in sospeso al prodotto di sostituzione spedito. Fa fede la mail dell'avvenuta spedizione che apple vi manda.
Ho ricevuto la mail, ma il codice di tracciabilità non funziona.Perchè?
Semplicemente perchè dall'inizio dell'anno apple ha deciso di cambiare metodo di spedizione dell'ipod sostitutivo, utilizzando la semplice posta ordinaria. Non è stata cambiata la mail, che rimane essere quella standard utilizzata per tutte le altre spedizioni, ma NON per questa. il numero di tracciabilità è pressochè inutile, ma POTREBBE servire in caso di NON ricezione o MAL ricezione del pacco.
Quanto tempo serve per ricevere l'ipod?
NON sono assolutamente due giorni lavorativi come specificato nella mail, anche se sembra che ogni mail venga spedita almeno uno o due giorni dopo l'effettiva spedizione del pacchetto. I tempi di ricezione non dipendono da apple, ma dalle nostre "fantastiche" poste italiane
Devo firmare per ricevere il pacco?
Assolutamente no, il pacchetto è spedito con posta ordinaria, e viene dunque trattato come una normale lettera. Vi verrà lasciato nella cassetta delle lettere dal postino
Non è pericoloso?
E' un giudizio personale, purtroppo si sono già verificati casi di furto dell'ipod contenuto all'interno del pacco
Cosa fare in questi casi?
Contattare apple, dare il proprio numero di pratica e di spedizione e raccontare l'accaduto. Probabilmente vi verranno richieste delle foto dell'imballaggio vuoto, dopodichè verrà programmata una nuova spedizione di un nuovo ipod a casa vostra, stavolta con corriere espresso.
E se non ricevo il pacchetto?
La risposta a questa domanda non esiste al momento, apple dice di aspettare, qualcuno consiglia di far passare giorni e di mettere poi il tutto in mano agli avvocati. Spero che non ce ne sia davvero bisogno.
Non mi resta che augurare buona fortuna a tutti, spero che riceviate il vostro nuovo ipod 6g!

Se le poste italiane fanno pena certo apple non poteva saperlo...essendo che si tratta di una sostituzione gratuita di circa 4-500 MILA unità (se non milioni!) su 4-5 mila veri ipod difettosi e a rischio, di certo credo che non ci si possa lamentare per i ritardi.
Non credere anche io sono in attesa dal 4 di gennaio, giorno in cui mi è stato spedito l'ipod che ancora non ho ricevuto, ma di certo non sto qui a lamentarmi a vuoto.
La apple ha già dimostrato che in caso di scomparsa o furto dell'unità sostitutiva, provvederà ad inviarne un altra, come ha già fatto con un paio di persone di questo forum non so se ve ne siete accorti...
Il fatto è che il problema sorge nelle poste del nostro amato paese. Un pacco spedito via posta prioritaria come i nostri ipod, se inviato e trattato correttamente dovrebbe essere ricevuto in 3-4 giorni lavorativi! che colpa ha apple se, visto che si è trovata a dover regalare qualche milione di euro di metariali per un migliaio di unità difettose, ha voluto risparmiare non chiamando in causa corrieri privati i cui prezzi non sono certo vantaggiosissimi su centinaia di migliaia di spedizioni, non credete?
Ma visto che a quanto pare alcuni scrittori presenti su questo forum si credono grandi economisti e avrebbero DI CERTO risolto molto meglio la situazione, li invito a laurearsi il prima possibile ed a chiedere il posto di lavoro necessario ad apple per essere in grado di gestire loro tutte queste cosette facili come una campagna di ritiro di device vecchi di 6 anni, i quali la maggior parte non funzionava perchè magari era capitato in mano ad un possessore dissennato e non per difetti di fabbricazione, ma nonostante tutto a quei padroni dissennati è stato regalato un device nuovo nuovo da 140 euro...bah
Poi vi chiedete come fa l'italia ad andare a rotoli se poi dopo 2 settimane andate nel panico perchè non vi arriva il pacco! fate caso ad una cosa, quante volte il postino consegna la posta al vostro condominio durante la settimana...onestamente io mi trovo in una città, non un paese e l'ultima volta che il postino ha consegnato qualcosa è stato lunedì 10 gennaio!...allora mi chiedo, il problema è di apple o delle poste italiane? come poteva mai sapere la apple che nella mia città gli uffici postali fanno cag**e e che il pacco mi restava in giacenza per più di una settimana?
saluti

  • Richiamo iPod nano 1G, tempi?

    Ciao a tutti, anche io dopo verifica del SN nell'area di supporto Apple, sono risultato possessore di un iPod Nano 1G (capacità 4GB) affetto dal potenziale problema della batteria esplosiva.
    Ho iniziato la procedura di richiesta di sostituzione il 16 novembre, ed a tutt'oggi lo status della riparazione è fermo allo stato di richiesta:
    ( http://cl.ly/332N3B443c0G3D0w2H0h )
    anche se mi è arrivata un paio di giorni dopo la richiesta una email in cui si diceva che entro 10 giorni avrei ricevuto il kit di spedizione.
    Ieri ho deciso di chiamare il Customer Care col numero a pagamento per chiedere chiarimenti, e mi sono sentito dire che a causa della grande richiesta ci sono dei ritardi nelle sostituzioni.
    Capisco le ragioni, però altri amici che hanno chiesto la sostituzione (Nano 1G da 1GB e 2GB) hanno già ricevuto l'occorrente pur avendolo richiesto dopo di me, può essere dovuto al fatto che è un 4GB?
    Quanto avete aspettato voi per ricevere il pacco per la sostituzione?
    Grazie

    ciao
    io ho fatto la richiesta assistenza il 15. novembre.
    il 24 hanno spedito il pacchetto che io ho ricevuto il 7. dicembre (anche se cera su posta prioritaria)
    io ho spedito poi l'ipod il 12. dicembre e ieri (19.12) l' hanno ricevuto.
    sempre al 19.12. è passato tutto sul passaggio 3 !
    ciao

    Hi Pace,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Does your iPod show up on the desktop. You may want to look at...
    "The Five Rs"
    Knowledge Base Document #60950 on iPod missing in iTunes and Mac desktop
    Knowledge Base Document #93718 about iPod appears on the Mac OS X desktop but not in iTunes
    iPod FAQ says,
    "Question: I have both a Mac and a PC. Will my iPod work on both?
    Answer: No, not at the same time. iPod is configured for either Mac or PC. You can use the iPod Updater to restore iPod to work with a Mac or a PC (depending on which version of the updater you use). See "Restoring iPod to factory settings" for more information. Note: Using the iPod for Mac on a PC, or using the iPod for Windows on a Mac, is not supported by Apple. FAT32 is the format used by Windows, and while some FAT32 iPod models may work with your Mac, Apple only supports using the iPod shuffle in FAT32 format on Mac.
    Question: Can I use an iPod formatted for Mac on a PC, or an iPod formatted for Windows on a Mac?
    Answer: It is not possible to use an iPod formatted for Mac with Windows. This is because Windows does not support the HFS Plus file system and therefore will not see the drive.
    You can convert an iPod formatted for Windows into an iPod for Mac by using the iPod for Mac Software Updater on the Apple website. Note that once it is reformatted, it will only work with Macs. You need Mac OS 9.2 or Mac OS X 10.1 or later to reformat an iPod for Windows into an iPod for Mac.
    Note: Using the iPod for Mac on a PC, or using the iPod for Windows on a Mac, is not supported by Apple."

  • 6th gen ipod nano has white screen and won't go into disc mode

    My ipod nano has a white screen - it will play music, and it is recognized by itunes. It won't enter disc mode. I can't seem to find any other helpful steps to follow online other than put it into disc mode and restore it via itunes. When I attempt to put it into disc mode holding power/Vol down together the screen will turn back, but when I then hold down Vol down/Vol up together while the screen is dark it just goes back to white screen. I did plug it into the computer and restore it via itunes, and the screen is still white.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Hi LizS5,
    It sounds as if you have already done much of the troubleshooting suggested in this article, but I would suggest you work through it in order to get your iPod nano back up and running -

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3474
    Specifically -
    Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
    Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
    When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
    While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
    And if the issue is not resolved -
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

  • Ipod nano displays apple icon and doesn't work

    I bought this nano as a gift (I already have an identical one). There were no problems syncing the content and registering the device, but once it is disconnected from the system, if you navigate to a song on the device and hit "[play", the screen goes black and will only display an apple icon.
    I returned the first one thinking it's a hardware issue, but the replacement is doing the exact same thing, leading me to believ it is a setting or software issue. I got the replacement in a completely different Best Buy too, just to try and get one from a different batch. Any ideas what's going on?

    Make sure you are using the latest version of iTunes and the Ipod's firmware is up to date.
    Make sure the "screen lock" is not set to on. Make sure the hold button at the top of iPod Nano is in the "off" position.

  • IPod Nano Service

    I have an iPod Nano, 2GB, less than 2 months old. The problem is that if I plug in lanyard headphones, or earbuds, start a song, then touch the case below the scroll wheel, the song stops. I can restart the song playing and touch the case near the bottom of the iPod and the song stops again. Even moving the iPod can cause the song to stop. If the lanyard or earbuds are removed and the song is started, touching the case has no effect. I sent the iPod in for service, Apple kept is less than a day and sent it back. The closest "required" item on their symptom dropdown menu was scroll wheel issues. I included a detailed account of the problem I was having, but it is apparent that the unit was unpacked, the scroll wheel found to be working, and it was shipped back, still malfunctioning. I have called Apple and was directed to make an appointment with a retail store to actually have a person look at the unit. It is immediately clear that this is a defective unit, as any song can be stopped just by touching the case if lanyard headphones or earbuds are connected. All the recommended troubleshooting measures have been performed to no avail. Any recommendations on how to get this iPod serviced? I'm very disappointed in Apples lack of support. I don't expect any better with extended care or Procare and it has made me think twice about purchasing a new laptop from them. We have two other iPod Nanos in the family and they work well! Any help will be welcome.

  • IPod Nano 7th gen wont turn on after a restore

    I tried holding down the top and middle buttons and it wont work, this is a replacement one for an iPod Nano 7th gen with corrupted software, could it be the same problem?

  • IPod Nano 7: White Blink on Wake

    I am experiencing an extremely minor glitch with my iPod Nano 7th Generation, but a glitch nonetheless:
    I plugged the iPod into my ASUS G750JW Laptop running Windows 8.1. I then launched Piriform's Defraggler and benchmarked all of my drives, including the iPod Nano. (Couldn't hurt, right?) I analysed them also, but did not defrag or attempt to degrag the Nano. After ejecting the Nano and turning off the screen, I noticed from then on that whenever I awoke it, there would be a blink-and-you'll-miss-it flash of grainy white. I have rebooted the iPod in full (Hold down power and home button until Apple appears) but it has not fixed it. Everything else with the Nano works as it did, I'm just worried that I might have given the SSD permanent damage, or is it something that can be fixed by restoring? I need professional opinions right now in the stead of an FAQ - anyway to know why what happened happend. Thanks in advance,
    ~ Kody

    UPDATE
    Upon resetting the iPod a second time, the blink has stopped happening, instead fading on as it's supposed to. I still would appreciate any (if at all) insight on why this happened in the first place. Thanks again,
    ~ Kody

  • HELP, Ipod nano 4 GB v 1.2 not visible in itunes v7.02.16

    I did the update for Itunes v7.02.16 and after this my ipod nano 4 GB firmware v1.2 was not visible in itunes but in de windows explorer it was shown. I was more then a hour on the phone with a support guy, with the result (his opinion) that it was a hardware problem. His advice was updating the usb driver. I did, but the problems was not solved. I did the same install on 2 other computer and all gave the same problems, I've tried all the solutions on the faq etc, the 5 R's etc.
    A strange thing is that de diagnostic in Itunes tells me all the information about the connectec ipod, it shows the serial nummer. name, busspeed, firmware etc.
    WHO can help, my mind is empty.

    I am having a similar problem. However, I have not updated my USB drive. How did you do that?
    For the support guy (or gal)...I have an iPod nano 2 GB and when I plug it into my USB port (I have 2 ports and have tried both) iTunes opens but doesn't recognize that my iPod is connected. When I run iPod diagnostics through iTunes it says iPod Connection Status-Failed, even though it is connected. I cannot sync my iPod via iTunes. I have tried numerous troubleshooters on the apple.com support website without any success (reinstalling iTunes, etc.) I took it to an Apple store this weekend and when they hooked my iPod up with my cable, their Mac recognized my iPod. If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

  • Buying new games for the ipod Nano 5G

    When I looked at the requirement for the games in the iTunes store the overall description said that these games (clickwheel) can be played on the 5th Gen. Nano, but when I look at the requirements for each individual game it says that the games are only compatible with the 3rd and 4th Gen. Nanos. Which is it?

    According to the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for iPod Click Wheel Games site, under the topics *"What are the requirements?"* and *"Which games are available for iPod?"* the ipod nano 5th generation is not listed.
    Post a request for Nano 5th generation games on Apple's Product Feedback site.

  • Where do I find ipod games in the itunes store?  It's for a 3rd gen ipod nano.

    I go to the apps section in the itunes store and the only games are for ipad and iphone.  The iphone apps say they'll work on ipod touch, but nothing about ipod nano.  I've found a bunch of FAQ stuff saying ipod games work on 3rd, 4rth, 5th gen nano and classic, but I can't find where ipod games are.  I did a search for "click wheel games" and it said that option is not available in itunes US.  I just gave my old 3rd gen nano to my niece and she's dying to get games on it, but I can't find them.  Some one save me!
    I synced the ipod to her parents account and checked for updated software, it said the OS was version 1.1.7 or something like that, and that that was the most current version.

    Apple no longer sells games for any iPods except the touch. Sorry, but unless you already had them downloaded to your iTunes account, you can't get them now.

  • Will the new iPod Nano fit in my speakers?

    I recently bought an Intempo RDI Speaker for my iPod Classic. It's last years iPod Classic (80GB). I was wondering whether the new iPod Nano (4th Gen) would work in my new speaker. Because i don't want to spend more money updating my speaker which i have just bought. I'm hoping the iPod Nano has the normal dock thing so it will fit.

    It has a dock connector so it should play music fine. But the new iPods only charge on 5 volts (the older ones could charge on 5 or 12). If your speakers charge with 12 volts they will not charge the new iPods.
    A lot of devices charge at 12 volts (even Apples own Hi-Fi) but most companies seem to be keeping this secret, if you are lucky there will be an FAQ on the company website that will tell you if it's compatible with the iPhone G3 (the first 5v only device).

  • Can iPod Nano Support Thai language?

    I just bought an iPod Nano, sync it with iTune. In iTune, Thai text came up fine, but after syncing it with iPod Nano, Thai text didn't turn up. Hope anybody will be able to help or at least just clarify that it simply doesn't support Thai? Thank you very much.

    There is a hack available that may let your ipod support Thai. See this FAQ for a link:
