Horrible, screeching noise when i plug nano into my car's auxiliary

Thats right...the auxiliary......with which my 160 gig classic has no problem whatsoever in playback, seems to like to cause mayhem when it is my nano who is feeding it.
I know there are a couple of threads on this....but.... twas never resolved.
Go to Apple Store? It would be hard to walk my car into the apple store to show them what i mean.
This is not the "hiss". This is rather, a horrible static-y-scratchy-screechy noise.
Few people in the other threads mentioned the built in FM tuner causing disruption with the car's connection..(seems the most logical explanation of yet)
On a side note, decided to return my iPad. Yeah I ate the $50 fee, but now i have got the funds for the nice iPad 2 with Facetime camera:)))))

Do you by any chance have the volume limit set on the iPod?

Unfortunately, if you increase the volume of a song in iTunes, all you do is make it so that the maximum volume on the iPod is reached before the volume bar is at full. It won't make the iPod's overall volume any louder.
For example, if you increase a track's volume in iTunes by +100% then when it's on the iPod you will find that that track hits it's maximum volume level at about half volume, and turning the iPod up to full volume will not increase the volume any higher after this point. A track which has not had it's volume altered in iTunes will reach exactly the same sound level, although of course you will need to turn the volume level of the iPod to full in this instance.

  • Screeching noise when I plug it into charge

    The problem started last night....I plugged the Iphone onto charge for its nightly top up and as soon as you hear the connected noise it started screeching. It does stop after about 10 seconds. I switched airplane mode on and this still happens. It was fine the night before, nothing unusual has happened in the 24hr period.
    Tried different plug locations. Unable to try an alternative charger but will attempt to do so.

    Hi Carrie19720,
    Based on your description of the issue, it sounds like you may need to have your iPhone serviced to determine the extent of the damage and your available options. You may find the following page helpful:

  • Speaker and earphones make noise when I plug them into Applebyte Speaker. . .

    Whenever I plug my earphones into my ipod touch, it makes a kind of static noise, like a "Pop!" kind of. When I plug my Apple byte speaker into it, it makes that sound, too. I think this is normal, but I would like to know what this is? Please help. Thank you.

    The earphones must be pushed very hard into the iPod. So hard, that the white part of the plug must touch the iPod in order for the external speakers to turn off. You will hear a click.
    If you do a forum search, you will find this same solution. If it does not work, you will need to take your iPod to an Apple store or call the Apple iPod tech support if still under warranty or you have Apple Care.

  • Music does'nt play when I plug usb into my car.

    When I plug my iPhone into my usb slot in my car, nothing happens.
    I play the iPhones music but it won't play any sound.
    Could anyone tell me what im doing wrong?

    "Apple iPod / iPhone
    From a hardware point-of-view the iPod is compatible with Blue&Me.
    However, since Blue&Me does not recognise .aac or .mp4 format files, the music on the iPod needs to be in .mp3 format. Apple iPhone and iPod touch are not currently compatible with Blue&Me."

  • Why does my iPhone 5 automatically launch iTunes Player when I plug it into my car stereo?

    Whenever I plug my iPhone 5 into my car stereo using my Apple USB, the iTunes Player automatically launches and starts playing music from my library. I'd really like to know how to stop this from happening as it's annoying as heck! When it happens, I have to open the player, select "now playing", pause it, swipe the player closed. I'm fully updated to 7.1 also. Thank you for any help you can offer!

    Surely there's a relatively easy fix for this but no Apple Rep wants to enlighten me Yet
    Come on guys .. this really drives me crazy a minimum of 5 times a day.
    What's the fix ?!?

  • My screen on my ipod5 is black and wont turn on but it makes a noise when i plug it into the charger can anyone help?

    its just all black and wont turn on or show any light. ive had it for about 2 years now. its a ipod touch 5th generation and blue not sure what to be but it has everything on it thats so important.. i need help and im unsure about the IOS :/

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    my ipod isnt turning on but it still makes a noise when i plug it into the charger can anyone help me?

    Hey there cameronw99,
    It sounds like you are unable to see your iPod Touch screen, as it stays black but it makes the connection tone when you plug in the USB cable. Use these steps to resolve the issue with the iPod from the following article:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    chttp://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.

    Take care,

    i was wondering why my ipod touch 2nd gen and 4th gen become electrified when i plug them into a normal charger and my ipod nano 5th and 6th gen do this as well

    Sure appears to be a defective charge or maybe just the cable.  Can you try another cable?.  Have you tried other chargers? Who made the charger?

  • My iPod is stuck on the Apple logo and won't do anything! It won't turn on, doesn't give me the option to power it off, and to top it all off, it's not being recognized by my computer OR by iTunes when I plug it into my computer.

    So yeah...last night I was checking out my iPod (bored at the in-laws) and all of a sudden the screen went blank and the only thing I can get it to do is have the black screen w/ the white apple logo on it. It won't turn on, doesn't give the the option to power down, it won't charge, AND it's NOT being recognized when I plug it into my computer. Not by iTunes OR my computer. I've tried holding down the top button and the home button at the same time...nothing. And since it's not being recognized on my computer, I cannot restart it or go back to factory settings. Someone please help! I've had it for 18 months so the warranty is no longer valid and I don't know how to fix it. THANK YOU in advance!

    - I would try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then see if iTunes will see the iPod.  try both with the iPod not connected to the computer and with it connect. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Next see if placing the the iPod in DFU mode will make it visible
