Frozen i-pod nano

I had my ipod plugged into the computer and everything was fine until I-tunes froze and I had to force quit it. Now my i-pod has been frozen on the "connected" screen for about half an hr, even when I unplug it. It is also locked. I have tried holding select and menu down at the same time for a few secs but that hasnt worked. Please help!

I pod Nano Screen Frozen

My i pod nano's screen is frozen on the message do not disconnect. When I connected it, a message told me it had been corrupted and neede to be restored. Except when I went to restore it, it gave me a message it could not download the information for the nano and could not restore. Now itunes is not even recgonizing a connection. What do i do?

First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
Then try with the iPod in forced disk mode.

I pod isn't working and is frozen ( i pod 4th generation)

I found out that really no i pod is officially busted or not operational today. It turns out that my fourth generation i pod nano was frozen and I was thinking of returning it and exchanging it ; but instead i went to the Support section under Apple and got the solution. It is called: **iPod: No power or frozen**
**Last Modified: June 06, 2008** I strongly recommend it. All you have to do is put the hold switch onto the setting off and then you hold the menu an center button for 10 seconds. It isn't for the i pod 4th generation but it worked for me.

No problem...
Have you tried holding the MENU and SELECT (center) button until you see the Apple logo to reset it?

Hello Pokeweed
Depending on what view you have on is where your iPod nano will show up. If it is the new view, then it will be in the right hand corner next the iTunes Store button. If you have the sidebar enabled then it will be where you would expect it. If it is in neither spot, then check out the article below to get it to show up on your computer.

My i pod nano click wheel doesn't work. how do i fix it?

my i pod nano click wheel has stopped working. My i pod still works when in my docking station but the wheel doesn't. Anyone got any ideas what I can do? I've tried to restore settings but that hasn't worked.

That is a hardware issue. Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you. If you want to DIY - iPod Repair Tutorials

Format of my i-pod nano

Is possible change the format of my i-pod nano (second generaction,2GB)? When i connect my i-pod to my mac os x i reed "Format: windows". Is possible change this format? With this format i can't update my i-pod!
Thank you!

Hi Delfina,
To change the format of your iPod from Window to Mac, just restore your iPod in iTunes.
(If you want it formatted for Mac OS X, then restore the iPod through iTunes on your Mac. If you'd like it Windows-formatted, then restore the iPod in iTunes on your PC.)
For instructions and info on restoring, see this Knowledge Base article on it:

I-pod nano 1st gen not recognized by computer

We took this in to the apple store and had the i-pod restired, but neither of our computers (Windows XP) will recognize the i-pod nano now. It has been giving us problems for the last month, and when it did last work, it would only allow 6 songs to be stored.
Any ideas?

If they restored the iPod in the store, they used a Mac.
You'll need to restore it on Windows.

How do I get music onto my i pod nano 7th gen

I am going out of my mind. I purchased over 200 songs via itunes and can not get them on to my i pod nano 7th gen no matter what ai try--- All my music is also srored in my i cloud--- Does any one know how to move it from the i cloud to the 7th gen i pod nano?
Help Help Help --- I am ready to throw this thing in the river, as I can't get any of the music I have paid for on it.   All my music automatically downloads to my i phone S via Wi-Fi, I don't have to plug in to itunes or synch-- the music just "appears"----magic???
As the sound quality on the iphone is no where near as good as on the Nano ( which is meant to ONLY BE A MUSIC PLAYER)----I really want to listen to it on my new Nano----What the **** is wrong with Apple that they enjoy torturing us with ever new product upgrade release that they don' t tell anyone how to use!
***!--Apple   you SUCK at customer service and support, which is why all these user groups have cropped up trying to help each other. as Apple is not interest ed in customer service, only in selling us things they don't, can't or just plain won't tell us how to operate!!!
Why is it impossible to put music on an Nano 7th generation.   Does any one know of a phone number for a real Apple human that may deign to help me?
Please !!!!!
Apple, we buy your stuff- why can't you tell us how to use it?
I am desperate-- have been trying to do this for weeks with no results!!

What cable do I need to connect an I pod nano to I pad air

I need a cable to.connect an I pod nano to an I pod air can anyone help .

If you're trying to transfer the music, from the Nano to the Air, you have to either download your purchased songs again in the purchased tab of iTunes or sync them to the Air, using iTunes on your computer.
Its been a few years since I've used a Nano, but IIRC, the only way to get the music on the device to begin with is by syncing with iTunes, so the songs have to be in your iTunes library.

I-pod nano click wheel does not work help!

Hi,
My i-pod nano 1st gen click wheel will not work i have tried restoring,restarting and all the 5 r's but still nothing has happened... there has to be a solution out there somewhere o yea i have also tried taking out the gunk in the click wheel but nothing HELP!

Version in the nano is 1.1; iTunes is 6.0.4.2.
This silly thing "healed itself" the next morning (?!), worked fine for two days, and decided to show the same symptoms this evening, then began working fine again.
Whether it is working or not I can feel the click of the wheel but unit shows no response when the problem is manifesting. So if I am having the problem I can press the wheel any which way for as long as I like and nothing happens -- screen does not light up, unit doesn't scroll, play/pause gives no response, etc.

I have an I Pod Nano and would get messages to update my software. In my I Tunes I have 1,900 songs but after the updates it will only sync 933 songs. My current software version is 1.0.2. What am I doing wrong or is it something in the software. I have not done anything different in my I Tunes and all songs are checked. Could someone please help or advise me what to do?

Thank you Gail, but not to be ignorant but can I send you a print screen on what I am looking at. I will try am explain what I see: I hooked up my I Pod Clicked on Music checked Sync Music 1909 Songs select Playlist, Artists, albums, and genres checked Include music videos Playlists checked 50's Music checked 70's Music checked 80's Music checked 90's Music checked 2000 Music checked 2010 Music These are songs that I downloaded onto my I Tunes. I bought me a new computer but when my data was transferred from old computer to new computer a lot of my songs on my hard drive were lost, but they were able to save all my songs on I tunes. My I Pod is still connected Clicked on "On this Ipod" Music 938 Songs 2.2 days So my question to you is if I have 1,909 songs on my ITunes how come only 938 transferred to my IPod. I checked my IPod and it shows only 938 songs transferred. This did not happen before until I Tunes asked me if I wanted to update to a newer version. Last month I did have all my 1,909 songs on my I Pod. I hope this explains what I am asking

My i-pod nano did not come with the CD to install software.

My i-pod Nano did not come with a CD to install the software to computer. How do I install software without CD?

The second generation iPod nanos do not include a CD; instead, download and install the latest version of iTunes on your computer to install the iPod drivers.

TS1363 My I Pod Nano is not reconised by I Tunes but used to be any ideas

Since I got my I pod nano periodically I Tunes would not recognise it but now it will not recognise it all. Any help please

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?
