Got a refurbished iPod Nano 6th gen, and went to connect it to my PC,

Got a refurbished iPod Nano 6th gen, and went to connect it to my PC, it said it was configured to Mac and went to restore it and install software. Now shows white screen with little computer icon and warning sign. won't reset

By a reset, I assume you mean pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Volume Down buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear?
Can you try and force the Nano into Disk Mode and then connect it iTunes and restore it again?

  • I just got a ipod nano 6th gen, and ive been using it for 2 days, and it seems that the battery just lasts about half a day, on playing 1 to 3 songs in intervals of 1-2 hours. Whats wrong with my ipod?

    Your nano would really have nothing to do with it at that point. It is really something between iTunes and whatever server out there on the internet that it is trying to connect to for the update.
    Try posting this one in the iTunes forum, they might have a solution for you.

    Hi, I just got my new iPod Nano 4th Gen. and the screen is blank... It's not on and its plugged into my Mac OS X Mountain Lion. I don't know what to do. Help!?

    If it is plugged into a USB hub (or the spare keyboard port), try connecting it to a direct USB port.
    Also, try doing this Reset procedure, while it is connect to power.

  • I had to pay to have Apple replace my iPod Nano (6th gen.). I connected it to my PC and a window came up saying something about needing to restore the iPod to work with Windows, so I hit "restore iPod".  iTunes will not recognize the iPod. Suggestions?

    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?

  • IPod Nano (6th gen) and Technogym treadmill

    Hi,
    I have a 6th gen iPod Nano and I have been using it with nike+ for a while. In particular, I have been using the transmitter plugged in the ipod and the sensor in my nike shoe to track my running data and eventually upload it to nikeplus.com. Hence, I have one sensor linked.
    Today, I went to my local gym and saw a Technogym treadmill with a big touchscreen and a possibility to dock an ipod. (I assume that the model of treadmill is a couple of years old, because it had a TV, fan, ipod support, etc., but no internet support. Here is the image of the exact treadmill - http://cityfitness.lv/upload/IMG_0452.JPG).
    Moreover, I plugged in my 6th gen ipod nano. Set up and started a 5k run on the technogym treadmill. My ipods music was accessible on the technogym instantly. Also, I saw that during the workout the ipod's screen showed "Nike+. Workout data is recording" or something like that.
    I did the 5k and finished the workout. I unplugged the iPod nano but my workout did not appear under Fitness - History. When I got home, I connected the ipod to iTunes, and the ordinary-afer-a-workout popup asking whether I want to send workout data to nikeplus appeard. I clicked yes. BUT, again, nikeplus.com does not show my technogym workout and neither does itunes.
    The only thing appearing in iTunes, is a new sensor. Its name is "Gym User 1" or something like that.
    So the question is. How can I get my 6th gen iPod Nano to fully work with technogym treadmill?
    Thanks,
    Reinis

    Hello mark0198,
    I'm afraid not. Your computer must meet the minimum requirements.

  • I just got a new used iPod nano 6th gen and I registered it, but it will not sync. I had an exsisting iPod nano that I no longer have, but I do have itunes on my computer. When I try and sync it, it flashes 'syncing' then stops. Help please!

    I have looked all over itunes for help, please help me figure this out. I just want to sync the music from my itunes accout from my old iPod onto my new one that I got off of ebay. I have registered it but it will still not work. Is there anything I can do? Should I call Apple? Can I reregister it? Is there some other way for me to connect it to my account? Please help me:(

    The ! sign before the song means that the actual song is no longer on your computer and/or iTunes library.

  • Got a new ipod nano 6th gen that i use only during my runs. Its so happen that i was told that it got wet when I have it check by authorized technician. Maybe it got wet by my perspiration..can this be fix since it cant be turned on?

    please help me with this..

    try toggling the hold switch on then off (quickly) then hold the centre button down until the apple logo appears (about 6-10secs) pls mark this as correct - it is!!!

  • My ipod nano (6th gen) keeps connecting and disconnecting itself from my computer can anyone help?

    I have read numerous posts online about the same problem but can't seem to sort mine out. I've tried changing power leads, restoring back till an older version of itunes, resetting the ipod, restarting my computer and tried every USB port in sight but still nothing.
    I have plugged a friends ipod touch into my computer and it connects and appears in itunes fine, but with mine it wont stay connected long enough for me to try and restore anything with it on itunes its literally a 1 second interval between connected and ejecting. I thought maybe it could be the connection terminal on the ipod but i have had it connected to a wall charger and xbox with it staying connected with no problems.
    I am running windows vista on the computer and the nano was previously synced to a different itunes could this be the problem and if so how do I go about fixing it??
    Thanks

    I too am having this same issue. I connect my iPod nano (6th gen), and it appears for anywhere between 1 to 10 seconds and then automatically ejects.
    I'm running a macbook pro with OS X 10.6.8 and the most up to date version of iTunes. The strange thing is that the nano works fine on my old macbook from 2007; which also has the most up to date iTunes but is running OS X 10.5. Another thing is that my iPod touch works just perfectly on my MacBook Pro.
    I have read up on a lot of forums, and have found little help for those who are running into this problem on a Mac. The majority of fixes are for PC. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • I have an ipod nano 6th generation and I am having serious problems updating it to version 1.2.

    Hi all,
    I just got myself an ipod nano 6th gen like in july and i love it. But i have been trying to download the update and it always says there is a error- the internet connection timed out yet i can be doing other stuff with the internet at that time, Facebooking, downloading, watching videos so it's not the internet and this has happened alot.
    When i first got my ipod, I was using a windows machine now i have a macbook and i wonder if that could be the problem because under format on the ipod it says windows...
    Has this happened to anyone else? I really need some help...
    Also, I have seen alot of complaints about the software update over the internet from other ipod nano users, if there is anyone who didn't get affected please let me know, I don't want to download it to only make my ipod act up....
    Thanks!!

    Your nano would really have nothing to do with it at that point. It is really something between iTunes and whatever server out there on the internet that it is trying to connect to for the update.

  • IPod nano 6th gen (brand new) doesn't recognize when headphones are plugged in

    I have a brand new iPod nano (6th gen), and it doesn't detect when headphones are plugged in. I have read that the problem can ocurr because the headphones are not correctly inserted (which is not the case.. i'm absolutely sure about this) or that the headphone jack has dust inside (which is also not the case, since it is brand new).
    This is what happens:
    When i play a song, and then press the sleep/wake button to turn off the display, the music stops. Or if i let the music play, it stops when the screen times out and turns off. These two things occur because the ipod "thinks" that there are no headphones inserted.
    When i try to activate the FM radio, the radio won't start because it says that there is no radio signal (which occurs when no headphones are connected).
    Needless to say, the microphone and volume controls of the iphone headset, don´t work at all (they even work on the ipod shuffle!).. and because of this, no voice recording for me!
    It's a shame, because the FM radio is completely useless, and music playing only works by activating the "double click to play" option in the settings menu.. but it is somewhat cumbersome the process of "play music - turn off the screen - double click to resume playing" every time I select a song.
    The headphone detection has only worked randomly when the ipod is connected to the computer, but i haven't been able to figure out under what conditions this occurs. I have read about this issue, and I only would like to know if this is a firmware bug of the 1.2 version. I tried unsuccesfully to downgrade the firmware to the 1.1 version (maybe because the ipod shipped with the 1.2 version).
    I have also restored the device in itunes, with no luck.....
    Thanks in advance for any useful answer!

    Thanks for your answer...
    The headphones that i'm using, are the ones that were included with the iphone 4 (so, they are original).. however this shouldn't be a problem, as the ipod should work fine with whatever headphones i choose to use (sound quality will vary, of course).
    The ipod does the same with the headphones that were included in the box, and with every pair of headphones i have used to test, so i'm certain that the ipod has an issue.
    I hope that the picture is clear enough.. here you can see that the headphones are fully inserted, and the ipod is not recognizing them.
