Help, I just  purchased an IPOD Nano Gen 3 4 GB. Trying to load to PC which is a Windows program. How do I do this?

Connect it to your computer and restore it as a new device. Then chose what music you want to sync with it and do so just like your Touch does.

    I just purchases an ipod nano.  I can not get it to synce with my existing itunes account.  I am not sure what I am doing wrong.  I had no trouble using my ipad or my daughter's ipod touch.

    Hi there,
    I would recommend taking a look at the information found in the articles below. The first two articles have the same content, but are geared towards either OS X or Windows.

  • I just purchased an iPod Nano (Red) and want to connect to my truck's speakers.  There is no built-in direct port.  What is the best product to buy to make that connection?

    I just purchased an iPod Nano (Red) and want to connect to my truck's speakers.  There is no built-in port to connect.  What is the best product to purchase in order to make a connection?  Thx, Robert

    Your truck's audio system may not have a specialized docking port for iPods, or a USB port, but does it have a standard "auxiliary" audio input port?  It would look like headphones jack on the iPod.  If so, you can use a cable like this
    http://www.amazon.com/Monster-iCable-Player-Auxiliary-Input/dp/B002AR5XIK
    to connect your iPod's output to the car's audio. 
    Otherwise, if your audio system is old enough to have a casette tape player, you can get a device that looks casette tape with a cable coming out of it, and play your iPod through the casette tape player.  The other way is to get a device for the iPod that sends the audio, through a low-power radio transmitter, to your car's radio (at a frequency that is normally not used by local radio).  From my experience, neither of those methods work well, in terms of maintaining full audio quality.

  • I work in a public library and we have two ipod touch and two ipod nanos we would like to circulate for our patrons. Any advice on how we can do this? Should we allow patrons to set the device up for personal use or download static content?

    I work in a public library and we have two ipod touch and two ipod nanos we would like to circulate for our patrons. Any advice on how we can do this? Should we allow patrons to set the device up for personal use or download static content?

    With the Nanos, you should have no problem lending them loaded with audiobooks from Librivox, etc.
    As for the iPod Touches, I'm not sure the question is whether you should allow patrons to set up the device for personal accounts, but whether you can prevent them from doing so. Prepare to to a factory restore every time one is returned.

  • I just bought new ipod classic.  I want to transfer my music library to new device. How do I do this?

    I don't know how to transfer my music library to my new device.  I have just purchased an iPod classic

    "Transferring library" term is usually used with computers, If you still have old classic, you also should have computer that content came from. Once you connect your new classic to that computer- all your library will sync automatically (after registration). If you do not have computer, then it may present a bit of a problem, because as far as I know, Apple's way allows you to transfer only purchased in itunes store content - instructions in link below and you still going to need a computer. If you search these forums and Google, you will find multiple guides on using nonApple solutions. Please try to check references for those.

    You have to update to 10.6.8 first.
    Then, if your machine qualifies, this explains how to get Mavericks:

  • Help!  Itunes not recognizing Ipod Nano.  Have tried several things already.

    Itunes does not recognize my ipod nano (6th generation).  When I plug it in to the computer, nothing happens (except it charges).  I have tried several of the recommendations (reinstalling itunes, resetting ipod, etc. etc.)  I have Windows 7 on my computer with the latest version of Itunes.  Interestingly, when I plug my Ipod into my other computer (which still has an older version of Itunes), it syncs right up and is recognized.
    What can I do to get Itunes to simply recognize my Ipod?  I am beyond frustrated.

  • My 2nd generation iPod nano screen is showing lines and I cannot see the whole menu. How can I fix this problem?

    I believe that my wife disconnected the iPod nano (2nd Gen.) improperly and now the screen has a whole bunch of lines. I can see the screens moving when I move to the next screen. But it's just lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    well unfortunatley your warranty is over so the device is not covered,  BUT sounds like you have interupting signals being sent from a stuck home button constantly being pressed and maybe even a digitizer problem (the touch screen).  You can try to restore your ipod to your computer to see if it might be some kind of software related issue.  Just restore to the last sync you have on iTunes.  But FIRST...I would try to Reset your ipod.
    Go to Settings>General>Reset> Reset all settings.

  • I have just had an iPad mini but all my messages are coming through on my iPad and iPhone how can I stop this happening

    I have just had an iPod mini but my messages are coming through on my iPad and my iPhone how can I stop this happening ? Do I need to reset my iPad ?

    To prevent messages from reaching both devices you can turn off Messages on the device you do not want to receive messages but keep Messages on on the device you do want to receive Messages.
    You might also look at this option for both devices.
    Settings > Messages > Send and Receive > review the a riotous choices for how you can e reached and select the ones that are most appropriate for you and the device you are setting.

  • I just purchased an ipod shuffle (4th gen.) and  I have been working trying to get it running for hours.  I have followed all manuals and tutorial help.  When I pull up my device manager, it shows an Ipod, but won't let me download the Usb driver.

    I just purchased and IPod Shuffle (4th gen.) and can't get it running.  I have gone through all of the help available.  It shows up in my device manager, but needs a USB driver.  It will find it online, but says an error has occurred and access is denied instead of installing.  I bought this for a last minute trip with teenagers and I have spent hours on this.  I am running Windows 7 and have tried disabling the firewall.
    Help, please.

  • Help me recover my IPod Nano (Gen 5) playlist

    I plugged in my IPod Nano (Gen 5) to charge it, and Apple told me they had updates.  After the updates were downloaded, my IPod automatically synced itself (I don't know why).  After the sync was complete, my entire playlist (473 songs) had disappeared, and 3 songs (I guess it's the default playlist) had appeared in its place.  I still have the playlist, it's in the Libraries section of my computer, I just don't know how to get it back into my IPod.  I'm also told that the driver for this device (USB Mass Storage device) is missing, and I don't know why or how to recover it either.  Another problem is, when I plug my IPod into my computer, the 473 song playlist used to display and I could listen to any song on my playlist just by simply hooking in my headset and selecting.  That doesn't happen anymore either.
    Sorry for the length, this is just really important to me.  Any help that can be provided would be most appreciated.  E-mail me...........pleeeeeeeeeease?

    Hey there TXann,
    It soudns like you have purchases that will not sync over to the iPod Nano 5th gen no matter what you do. I want to recommend running through the iPod 5rs to help troubleshoot the issue here:
    iPod nano (5th generation) Troubleshooting Assistant
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/nano5gen/
    I suggest trying the sync after each step so as to minimize the amount of troubleshooting you need to do. Here is step one to get you started:
    Reset
    To reset 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 Center (Select) buttons simultaneously 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.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
