  • Hey, when i deblockaded my ipod nano 5thgen, all the songs and vids' dissapeared but my memory is still filled as 'others'... How do i get my music back? (restoring doesn't work cuz the songs were from a laptop, but it crashed...) thx!!

    Hey everyone, when my ipod( nano, 5th generation) was stucked, i deblockaded it, but then all the music and video's dissapeared.... And  when i check thee info it says '6.4 GB others' and '567 MB free.... And don't know how this could happen but i really want all my music back!! And i cant put all the songs back because the laptop i used for this ipod crashed and it's still in the store to ffix it... So now i have a lapop that i borowod from the store but i only have 100 songs on that laptop ( manual mode, so i can put them on the ipod but i cant tpuch the others)  and that means i would download 1200 songs, and that really takes a long time... And my memory is full, so i can't put new songs on it.... S, the question: is there a way i can get all my songs back?? And if that is impossible, how do i clear my memory, so it's free for new songs??
    Already thanx a lot!!
    mmuuuuaahh,

    Well, shut my mouth!  There was a similar question over to the right about a 6th generation nano repeating over and over again -- I read the answer to that one, followed the instructions, and holy crap, it's back to normal.
    Is there a name for this when you end up replying to your own aggravating question?  That's what I did.  Now I can go out and listen.  It's only 91 degrees.  Heaven. Thanks, Apple. 

  • My i-pod nano plays half of a song then stops

    my i-pod nano plays half a song then just stops and then turns its self off !!

    I have the same problem on many songs in my 8GB NAno.
    Many Songs in my Nano do not play completely. These songs played ok on my PCs and on my 20G iPod. The bad songs would play for several seconds to couple of minutes, then the play back would stop and my Nano would jump to the next song. Those bad songs were ripped from my own CDs and not downloaded from the web.
    Note that I have used 2 versions of iTunes (7.0x) and 3 version of iPod software. They are all in MP3 format and less than 5 minutes long.
    I have reset & restored the Nano and reload all the songs (about 7.4G in my 8G NANO). The problem remains. I have purchased another 8G Nano and reload all the songs. The problem remains. I have reset the new Nano and reload the songs using the USB cable from my iPod, the problem remains. All the 'bad' songs would play OK in my PCs and iPod.
    As this is my second Nano and third USB cable used to transfer the song, the only remaining causes of the problem is the Dell PC or the Nano firmware/ software.
    Out of the the 7GB of music in my Nano, I estimate there may be over 100 songs that are bad (as I have not play thru all of my songs). I do not think it is worth my time to re-rip all the bad songs from my CDs, so the only 2 things left to do is to restore the Nano and reload the song from my desk top PC; Or return the Nano to Apple.
    Any ideas or suggustions?
    Thanks

    since there is no info in your profile, which ma model, os, which iTunes you are using, limits anybody from delving deeper into your problem.
    Update your profile, you will probably get more help.

  • Match only plays half the song on my iphone

    I use itunes match on my iphone but some of the songs are only half downloaded.  It will play half the song and then skip to the next one but it appears on the screen that the first song is still playing.

    When I encounter glitches like this the first thing I always try is to force quit the Music app. See if that helps.

  • TS3218 my 6th gen nano plays the same song over and over even though the repeat is off. can anyone help me with this problem?

    my 6th generation nano plays the same song over and over even though the repeat is not on.

    It sounds like the repeat setting has been enabled. See page 21 of your iPod's User Guide for instructions on turning it off.

  • Why does my  Gen 7 ipod nano keep pausing?

    I've owned a Gen 7 iPod nano for a month now as a go-to MP3 player for work (we can't use our phones to listen to music due to cell phone abuse that's happened). Everything seemed fine until about 2-3 weeks ago I found that my music kept spontaneously pausing. Ok so I figured that maybe I hit the button on the side so I used the remote on my earbuds to continue playing. Another slight move and the thing pauses again. I quickly discovered that the slightest movement of the earbud jack triggers this thing to pause the music.
    I then thought it was the headphones and perhaps the remote causing it to glitch. So I went and bought a cheap basic pair of earbuds (Sennheisers) without the remote only to find that the pausing is still going on. I've cleaned out the jack numerous times and it is still doing it. Any idea why this is happening? Seems like this is a known issue as I've seen that others ran into this. Why would Apple continue to let faulty product to be sold? For $140, I would have expected this to last longer, now thinking I should have stuck with a cheapo MP3 player from Walmart as it would have probably lasted longer
    Are there any fixes to this or should I retire this practically new 'pod (and get my hard-earned cash back) and move onto something better? I'm now kind of weary of buying Apple devices if this is the kind of performance I'm going to get from it.

  • My computer where my itunes library is stored is no longer accessible.  how can i add songs to my ipod nano without losing the songs already on it.

    The computer where i have my itunes library is no longer accessible.  How can I add new songs to my  Ipod nano without losing the song already on it?

    You will need that library copied from the old computer. If not, then you can take a look at this in getting 3rd party software to recover your library from the iPod. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • Hi guys , when I tap a song on my iPod touch it plays the wrong song and sometimes it comes up with the now playing screen but no matter how many times I press play it doesn't play ,what's wrong with my ipod

    When I play a song on my iPod it immediately skips a song and sometimes doesn't play any song at all

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync and then resync the music
    - Restore from backup

  • TS1362 Two weeks ago Purchasing 60 songs from iTune store.So Two of them play only half of song and then jumping to another songs.What is could be?Or can i get repair this two downloads?

    Two weeks ago Purchasing 60 songs from iTune store.So Two of them play only half of song and then jumping to another songs.What is could be?Looks like is not been downloaded full.Can i get this two songs to play correct?Many thanks Aleksejs!!!

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Just bought a gen 7 ipod Nano. All setting in iTunes are set to transfer. When I hookup to my computer. It says syncing then devise is synced. But absolutely nothing transferred!! Please help!

    Never mind, got it to work. I stumbled around on Google for a while and somehow ended up reading things from the 'jailbroken' community. They had easy instructions to get out of Recovery mode. Thanks anyway though!
    P.S. For anyone who experiences this, here is the fix: Hold Power and Home in unison for 6 seconds, then power on as normal.
