Hi i received the nano 7th gen for Christmas and I only seem to get 5 hours of battery life. I use the Bluetooth and Nike app so I expect more drain on the battery.  But I got more time out of running with my iPhone. Does this sound normal? I thought I should get close to 30 hrs of just play time alone.
ALso, my wife got me the Belkin armband to run with the nano but I sweat through the band resulting in the back of the iPod to get wet. Surely this is not good. Anyone have a recommendation for an armband that keeps moisture away from the pod?

iPod Nano are small and they don't use Wi-Fi access so you get less power time on a Nano. As for iPhone, since you got apps, Wi-Fi + 3G access, and everything else, they give you more time so you can keep using. Nanos are ment to listen to music, listen to radio, view your photos, watch videos (without Wi-Fi) and since you got BlueTooth on the nano, it counts as wireless access so it drains your battery faster.

  • I have elements 9 for mac, and I only "seem" to get 2 guidelines.

    I have elements 9 for mac, and I only "seem" to get 2 guidelines. Is there a way to get more? Or is that all?
    Hmmm as I work with it I seem to get more but only if I enter distances correctly. It defaults to the upper left of the image ok, but then How do I measure the outside of the image correctly?
    Should I just use the image size as my guide?
    That seems to work. Thanks anyway :-)

    If you have the Rulers showing, then you can drag out your guides from the rulers.

  • How do I blutooth from my SIII to my nano 7th gen for music

    I have just gotton the new ipod nano as my old one died. I've tried to use the bluetooth between my SIII and nano but neither will connect is there a way around this as I don't really want to pay for songs I already have.

    Ultimately, an iPod nano is loaded (synced) from a computer running iTunes.  There is no way to directly connect it to another mobile device, not even Apple's mobile devices.
    What you need to research is how to offload the music on the S3 to your computer.  If you can do that, and the song files are MP3, AAC, WMA, or some other format that can be imported into iTunes, you can then simply sync those songs to the nano, like any of your songs in the iTunes library.

  • I got a Nano 7th Gen for Xmas.  It keeps teling me there is nothing in my Library to sync, even though I'm staring at my full library.

    Before you ask, Yes I have selected "Sync Music", Yes the music is selected for syncing, Yes I've hit Apply, Yes I've downloaded the newest version of Itunes, and Yes the computer is authorized.  This isn't my first Ipod.
    My computer runs Windows 8, and I've also tried running the compatibility test and changing the compatibility to Windows 7 and Windows XP; still have the same problem no matter which mode it runs in. 
    The Ipod Tab shows up just fine; it just says there's nothing to sync. 

    The only way to backup non-Tunes purchases to iCloud it to subscribe to iTunes Match.
    The message you are getting means that iTunes can't find the actual music files.
    You can:

    - You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • HT5470 How can I get the driver for my new ipod nano 7th gen for windows vista?

    Recently  purchased a Nano 7 to replace my 3rd generation struggling to connect to my windows vista laptop and Im looking for the driver, can anyone help?

    The driver you need to connect your device to Windows is installed during the iTunes installation. So if you already have iTunes installed, verify if it is updated. If it's not, then update, If it is already updated download a new .exe file from the Apple page, and reinstall it:

    Follow this article before removing iTunes and its components.
    Hope this helps!

  • I'm having issues with my battery - does this sound normal?

    I've had my 13in MBP barely 8 months and its been going downhill for the last month or 2 now.
    When i first got it, the battery was great- the battery estimate consistently said 9 hours plus after a full charge and it would easily do this- i got a whole day of web browsing at uni and and hour or 2 of Illustrator and still had some battery left when i got home.
    For the last 2 months however, the battery has been pants. The highest estimate value i get when i turn on after a full charge is around 3-4 hours and its not lasting well at all, I can browse the internet for an hour or 2 and the battery drops rapidly - i loose between 30-50% in this short space of time. I would expect this kind of drop if i am using a high power program such as the adobe suite but for just browsing the internet (not even streaming videos just normal web) this seems a lot.
    It has had some abuse (99 cycles already) but it still seems to have just gone quickly.
    i downloaded the coconut battery app and it says my battery capacity has dropped to 90%, is this normal for an 8 month old machine? i expected to have to replace the battery eventually but if its deteriorating this quickly its going to get expensive :|

    After 99 cycles, you can expect a certain loss of charge with a lithium battery. But before you become too concerned, I'd like to give some advice that might make things easier.
    I haven't used your MBP, but I can almost guarantee that your battery is suffering from lithium battery fatique. It happens when your battery is hot all the time. Even doing mundane activities like web browsing, heat reduces the performance of lithium batteries.
    Your battery health is a bit lower than some, given the vintage of your machine, but it's well within an acceptable range - especially since it's getting a lot of use. But I'll suggest a few hints that might cut down on the wear and tear on your battery.
    - Keep your machine cool! Make this a priority. I've seen some MBP users with their machines on their laps - which doubles the temperature. Take breaks in your routine to keep your machine cool. You might want to download a free application like SMC Fan Control. Use a cooling pad. Reduce the brightness of your machine.
    - Think about using your power cable more. You can cut down on battery use simply by using the power cable judiciously. You won't have to worry about the amount of cycles if it's getting powered through the power cable.
    I hope you'll post here with your results or questions!

  • Can any one advise me if the new ipod nano 7th gen has a sleep timer on it?

    I have just be giving a new style Ipod Nano 7th gen for christmas and wanted to know if it has the facility of playing music and setting up a sleep timer alarm so that it switches itself off after either 30min or 60mins?
    I have had an ipod nano 4th gen for about 4 years and it has this sleep timer facility on it which i absolutely love and use every night.
    So can anyone advise me on this and if it does still have this facility on the newer model that would be great and how i would go about setting it up on my new ipod nano 7th Generation.

    Thank you Chamar for replying to me, i will have a look at printing of the full manual and having a proper read throught it.
    Happy New Year to you all.

  • I previously owned iPod Touch -New iPhod Nano 7th Gen. Can't  seem to be recognized by iTunes or Sync

  • Ipod Nano 7th Gen

    Hi Can anyone help, Just got the Ipod Nano 7th Gen for christmas and when connecting to itunes it states that there is an update to 1.0.3, when I follow the instructions to update, it starts downloading and near the end I get an error and it does not finish any ideas?

    What is the error message?
    I'm going to guess you are updating on a Windows computer. The error is probably due to your antivirus/antispyware software. Temporarily disable ALL of it and try again.

  • Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement digitizer metal bezel for an iPod nano 7th gen.q

    Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement digitizer metal bezel for an iPod nano 7th gen That was broken (in 2 places) during disassembly.
    The lcd screen and digitizer were both replaced but the top 1/3 inch of the screen doesn't respond to any touch.

    They have 2 parts for sale for the nano 7th gen.  Ac adapter and charging cable.  I need to find one of those Chinese parts sites, they seem to have items that you cannot find in the states yet.

  • Charging iPod nano 7th gen

    How long should I charge my ipod Nano 7th gen for maximum charge?

  • IPod Nano 7th Gen. & Nike App

    Good morning friends,
    I am interested in purchasing an iPod Nano 7th Gen. for the fitness app but I have some queries - I've checked online and am a little more confused then when I started.
    I understand that the Nike Fitness App doesn't need the shoe sensor in order to work.  This is the main reason I am interested in purchasing the product; however, in the store the personnel indicated that the shoe sensor is required.  I investigated this a little and now I am of the understanding that you can use the app without the shoe sensor for walking/running, but that having said sensor makes the app more efficient/accurate.
    Could someone clarify this for me, and indicate which are the functions when having the iPod only or having the iPod + shoe sensor?
    Thanks so much in advance!

    Hello,
    I have the ipod nano 7th gen. I use it without the sensor and it works fine. It is quite accurate. I have tested it by running around my neighborhood and then compared my run  to Google Maps and it was pretty close. After each run, you can calibrate your distance. This will make your runs even more accurate.

  • Ipod-nano-7th-gen-won't-synch-from-itunes-or icloud?

    I have a Nano 7th generation. I am beside my self trying to get the music I buy in i tunes onto the Nano 7th gen--my iphone 4S automatically downloads all the music I buy via Wi Fi ( I also have an icloud account that has all my music in it)
    But, No matter what I can not get the the music into the Nano.  I launch itunes, plug the Nano in, it shows up on the left side of the itunes store screen (sometimes)-- I have never been asked to register it-- and it never shows up with my authorized devices in the My account info section of itunes-- the Laptop I use  & the iphone show up-- but I can't figure out how to get the Nano to show up as a recognized, authorized device.
    Why does Apple make it impossible to learn how to use the devices they make?
    I have all my  music  on the i phone ( which is really NOT the quaity music player that the Nano is, I would like to listen to it on the Nano).
    Is there any way I can move the music from my icloud into the Nano 7th generation?  I am completely at a loss, and don't know what to do or who to ask
    Please, can someone help me?   Music is one of the only things I have in my life, and this is frustrating beyond belief to pay for music I can't listen to.
    Thanks for any one s help

    Hey liznofears,
    Connecting the iPod to iTunes and having it show up on the left is the first step. It sounds to me like you want your music to sync automatically whenever you connect your iPod - if so, follow these directions:
    Connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes.
    Click the button with your device's name, below the Spotlight window.
    In the main iTunes browser window, select Music.
    Select Sync Music. You can select "Include music videos" if you want to sync Music videos to your device.
    Your device needs to have enough free space to sync the content that you selected from your library.
    Tip: You can use the capacity bar at the bottom of the device settings window to see how much free space is available. The window will update with an estimate as you select content.
    Click Apply. iTunes will sync the content you selected to your device. The iTunes LCD will show the sync progress and notify you when the sync is complete.
    To disconnect your device, find your device in iTunes and click the eject icon.
    via: iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
