Help! Broken nano 3g!

My nano 3g is broken. It won't turn on, charge, and the computor wont recognize it. I think it's discharged too long. If it's discharged, how long do u charge it?

If you press the Select and Menu buttons at the same time and hold them for 10 to 15 seconds with it plugged into the charger, what happens?

Help! Nano Frozen! Hold is off but lock is still showing!

I plugged my Nano in through a USB cord to my computer to update the iPod. There was no reaction to the iPod when I started iTunes. I took the iPod off the plug and it froze. Please help.
iPod Nano - Black

Try resetting your iPod:
1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
2. Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
*Tip: If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep.

Help my nano is broken kinda

Last time i had to reinstall windows and accidentally reformated my ipod nano to fat and now the restore doesnt work I also tried to reformated to something else it say that the number of volume is unknown and cant not be reformated please help

Did you try resetting your Nano while it was connected to your computer? Most people don't but once they do then their units jump back to life.

Broken Nano and Not Working

hello,
um my ipod Nano broke about a month ago and i thought it didnt work so i didnt use it for about 2 days then one day i discovered it still worked just the screen was broken so it worked and all now it wont turn off and the lights still on so i dont know what to do. Should i go and get the screen fixed to see what its displaying? Oh and this one time at school when the screen was fine it like played music but it didnt turn off, i had to leave it on and waste the battery til it died then i recharged it and it worked.
But this is a worse case cuz i cant even see the screen so i need help with suggestions please?
thank you for your time
-eric

tnx a lot
actually i left it on a countertop and the sun was hitting it for a while and when i grabbed it it was fine, put it in my pocket, not even a minute later i take it out and its cracked. so i worried but it still works. you know what?
since i cant see the battery life, i have the tendency of charging it when i get home and i leave it there til i go out but i rarely go out. is it bad to charge it too much?
ps it works now tho, i think it just needs to die then i charge it, thats the second time it happened.

Help with Nano not working

Help!!! My Nano was fully charged and I let it sit for longer than a week. When I went back to the Nano, the battery was gone. I attached it to my Mac and the apple logo appeared and disappeared. It would not power on. The Nano turned on after 20 minutes, but it was cycling through the choices. Then the Nano shut off. When the Nano is on, it is not being recognized by my Mac. My 5G iPod works fine on the usb cable.

See these.
iPod doesn't appear in iTunes or on the Mac desktop.
iPod does not appear in iPod Updater or iTunes in Mac OS X.
iPod appears on the Mac OS X desktop but not in iTunes.

Please help, iPod Nano and iTunes issues

1. I can't update my iPod Product Red. I've downloaded the update, and when I click "update" in iTunes, it just sits there for hours saying its updating
2. The first time I start windows, connect my iPod Nano and then start iTunes (or even the other way around, start itunes then connect ipod), my nano doesn't show up in itunes. I need to restart the service after plugging in the nano every single time!
3. I cant restore my iPod Nano either, the same problem with the updating my ipod, the progress screen just goes back and forth for hours without doing anything, infact my nano just seems like it looses synch during both an update and a restore, because the do not disconnect message on the screen goes away once either update or restore process is started.
Please help! This is my first ipod purchase and so far it is really disappointing me and frustrating, thanks

Help! Nano is black and wont reset!!!

I had my ipod nano in an iradio it was playing fine, then just went black. It will not reset and my computer will not recognize it. I then put my husbands nano on same iradio and after about 10 minutes did same thing. What happenened, HELP?

How did you try and reset the Nano? Does this particular dock listed your Nanos as being compatible with your particular iPods?
Did you connect each of these iPods back to your PC and iTunes and left sit for at least 30 minutes to see if they show any signs of life after that?

HELP! nano frozen in lock mode

Hi there,
While listening to my nano yesterday, as always I put it on hold to save power, and I accidentally dropped it on the floor face-down. Since then, the click wheel has been frozen in lock mode and is unresponsive. I have tried toggling the hold button back and forth many times, as well as trying to restart my ipod, in addition to letting it play until the point the battery dies and then connecting it to power (I read this may help?), all to no avail.
Are there any ideas as to how to solve this problem? Will this problem just stop on its own?
Please help! Thanks in advance.

Update: I just went upstairs to try the hold switch again, and I had this thought: this whole problem started when I dropped my iPod while it was on hold, so why can't I drop it again? So I smacked it (when I say smack, I really mean a little harder than a tap) a couple times on a hard surface and guess what? It works again! I'm sure this didn't solve the problem long-term and that I will need to get it repaired in the near future, but for now my problem is solved! I'm kind of afraid to touch the hold button now, though.
I might still send it in for repair just to avoid this happening again in the future, but only if it happens again in the next couple days/weeks.

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.

Hi Techie,
This issue is a general issue and it is not from your system and configuration.
Microsoft is working on this issue and try to find a solution as quickly as possible.
One way to solve temporarily, in some cases, you can follow the steps below:
Go to Central Administration URL and replace "default.apx" by“_admin/privacy.aspx”.
Scroll down to “Display Help from external Web Sites as specified by each Help collection” and click “No”.
This will allow to use local SharePoint help, not online help until Microsoft fix this issue.

Help, Broken Power Button- Can't turn on laptop

Hi,
I have an iBook G4 that does not turn on. The power button is unresponsive and doesn't do anything when pressed.
I'm hoping there's a key combination I can press to boot it up? (one that doesn't involve pressing the power button)
It's a school issued computer so I can't open it up, and since it's summer break I can't take it to our tech office.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

The Power Key is about it, for starting up an iBook.
There may be something else wrong with the computer
which an expert or genius may be able to perform a
basic troubleshooting effort to find what that may be.
Troubleshooting portables that won't turn on or start up:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA25686
Some processes to troubleshoot and try to get it to work
may involve several different things; including seeing if
the computer could work with the power adapter only,
with the battery removed. Or see if the power adapter
may be needed to start the computer. Narrowing down
the possible sources of problems, to include inspection
to see if the power button is broken, would be needed.
If the battery is fully charged, and this implies the cell
is good and not been used up, perhaps simply resetting
the Power Management Unit (PMU) may help.
Without seeing the computer, some things are more
trial and error than others. If an Apple Store is within
reasonable distance, a call ahead to see if they have
an available genius or other person at a specific time
who can look over your computer; this may be helpful.
I suspect the issue may not be the Power Key; but
if that is the case, it would require a repair. And if
that happened to be the situation, someone at the
school would have to authorize it (unless you were
to be generous and send it off to someone capable
such as wegenermedia.com for a quality repair.)
Actually, if it's the Power key, a technician would have
to take the computer apart down to the logic board...
& a tech could decide how or what to do about it. In
some cases, certain repairs may be costly.
The instructions here are on how to perform a PMU reset:

HELP! Need help linking Nano to existing Nike+ account

Hope someone can help as I'm going out of my mind. I searched but couldn't find another topic like this.
I had to restore my nano (2nd gen) to its original factory settings in itunes, which erased all songs and data. My Nano is working great now, but it's no longer linked to my Nike Plus account. When I now connect the restored Nano, under the Nike + tab in itunes I cannot check the box to automatically send my workout data to Nike+. The only option is to register. I'm already registered but there isn't an option to link to an existing account?
After the restore on my nano, how do I link it in itunes to my existing Nike+ account that has all my run data stored? Like I said, the only option on Itunes is to register and that's not what I want to do since I already am registered!
I guess this would be the same problem if I bought a new Nano so I'm sure this question has been raised before.
Please help! I need this fixed before my run tomorrow! Thanks folks!
Scott

GFF,
Yes, I checked the link you provided below and couldn't find any topic with a similar problem. I already did my run for the day so won't know until tomorrow if the receiver and sensor gather info but everything appears like it will work just fine. When I plug the receiver in the Nike+ option pops up in the menu and it looks ready to go. It even recognizes the sensor so I think that's okay.
I did email Nike Plus but they haven't answered yet.
When I connect the Nano to itunes, I cannot check or uncheck the box to automatically send the info. The only option is to "create a Nike account." I clicked this and tried to just add my existing account and it wouldn't let me saying it already exists.
There has to be a simple way to do this. Can't imagine you lose everything if you get a new Nano or have to restore one.
Maybe more options will pop up after my run tomorrow morning when I plug in the Nano to itunes with a run to send to Nike+
I'll let you know. Until then, any other suggestions would really be appreciated!
