How can I lock the screen on ipod nano 7th gen?

How can I lock the ipod nano 7th gen? Just pressing the top button doesnt cut it as it still starts to play music or pauses or change volume with the slightest knock im in 2 minds to take it back if you cant lock it as ive only had it 4 days and already found this a huge problem!

Hi! I really couldn't find no way to lock the screen, except pressing the top button (what only cancel any touch you do in the screen).
That's an old discussion about (failure vs feature), but I wonder about if you are running, you can let the screen locked and still change or pause the song by pressing the buttons on the side of the iPod)
hope I could help you

No muscis when the screen sleeps (ipod nano 7th gen)

I bought an ipod nano (7th generation) which seemed to work fine when I plugged it into my car stereo. When I turned it off and came back a short time later, it started ok but then as soon as the screen went black the music stopped. I had to wake it up again to get it to play but then it carried on doing the same thing. My friend tried her iphone and there were no issues. The next time I turned it off and tried it was fine but then did the same thing again when I turned it off. Does anyone know what's causing this? Since it's new I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong. There were hardly any instructions about usage with it. There doesn't seem to be anything relevant in settings that I can see.
Your help would be much appreciated?

The headphone jack on a new iPod Nano is very tight. Get a flashlight and inspect it first and clean out any lint/dirt/insects/debris you might find. After that make sure you plug the headset jack all the way in, there should be no gap between the plastic on the headset jack/auxiliary cable and body of the Nano.

Right click on your device in the device list and choose "transfer purchses" to copy all music bought in iTunes to your new iTunes library.
For all other media you'll have to use 3rd party software, examples are mentioned in this thread:

How can you lock the screen on iPhone in iOS 7 while talking on the phone?

I am struggling to figure out how to lock the screen of my iPhone 5 during a phone call. In iOS 6, I was able to push the top "on/off" button to lock the screen. In iOS 7, I am able to do this ONLY while using the speakerphone. If I push this button while talking on the phone regularly or using a headphone, it ends the call rather than locking the screen.
I have found that I am muting calls and disconnecting calls accidentially with my "face" while holding the phone b/c the screen is so sensitive. Does anyone know a way around this?

I dont know of a way round this, but im having the same issue of puttig people on hold when putting the phone up to my ear.
This was an issue with the iphone 4 years ago and apple had to do an update to cure it

How can I delete albums from my ipod nano 9th gen

How can I get Ipod nano to display Albums when connected to itunes?
How can I delete Albums from my ipod.....either using the device stand alone or when connected via itunes?
Both the above actions are easy using other devices and software ( Samsung MP3 and Windows Media Player...for example)
But after a year of owning my Nano I still cannot figure out how to do either of these tasks.

Just re read myoriginal question and realised I had not explained what I want to do very well.....
If I connect my ipod 9th gen to itunes.
How do I get it (itunes) to display albums and then delete them?
Finding them amongst the many thousands of track listing and then deleting them one track at a time is extremly tedious........
Surely there must be a way I can get itunes to display albums and the pick the one I want to delete?

How can I lock the screen on RMBP allowing applications to work.

I'm using my RMBP at work, when I go off to get lunch or any other time I'm out of my office for several minutes I want to be able to lock my screen. I want downloads in the background, or renderings to keep working while it's locked, but the only thing I've been able to find is to shut the lid, which puts it to sleep...
Control, Shift, Power turns the screen off, but any press of a key wakes it back up. I'm assuming I'd have to pass code lock the computer (I don't want to have to key in the pass code every time I open the lid, but I understand if I did)... how can I make it go to a password protected lock screen with out going to sleep.
In windows its very easy, window key + L, lock screen. Can I duplicate this functionality on a Mac?

Open system preferences and go to "Desktop & Screen Saver"
Select the "Screen Saver" tab, select a screen saver and then select the "Hot Corners..." button. You will be able to set hot corners that will start the saver when you move the mouse cursor to that location.
After you have setup the screen saver, got back to the system preferences top menu and select "Security & Privacy". You can change the setting to require your password to unlock the screen after the screen saver starts.

How do i advance songs on my ipod nano (7th gen) without using the touchscreen?

On my old Ipod (3rd generation i think) I used to be able to use the round disc to advance songs and control volume. Now, on my new 7th generation model, It seems I have to use the touch screen to advance songs. This is difficult when I am riding my bike, hiking, or just workiing out, I used to just have to reach down and press the disc, now i have to be lucky enough to touch the arrow on the screen to advance to the next or previous song. I did notice on the little side bar you can control the volume and play/pause the song..but not advance songs. Does anyone know another way?
Thanks so much!
Dean

thankfully I was just able to find the answer in another member's post. You can double click the side button to advance the songs. I credit member little goomba for sharing the answer on another post. Now I am back to loving my new Nano!

How can I remove movies from my iPod nano (7th generation)?

Hi! I just got one of these for Christmas. I put a movie (Nirvana, Live At Reading) in it, but I decided that I don't want it due to the amount of memory it takes up and the poor sound quality. I tried doing two methods that I read from another dicussion which were to go into the "Movies" tab on my iPod in iTunes and deleting thme from the iPod. I read that I'm supposed to uncheck the movies I don't want and click "Sync." I can't do this because all the movies are grayed out. Method two was to actually delete the movies from iTunes completely. I did that, but the movies are still in my iPod. Something to note might be that while the movies ARE NOT being shown as being in my iPod in iTunes, it says the are in the memory bar on the bottom of the page. And according to iTunes, there are five movies in my iPod, they're the six I actually want, but there's an extra three that I did put in, and a copy of one that's already in there. Sorry if this is confusing. I'll post a screenshot. Thank you in advance!
P.S. The only videos in my iPod are labeled "Movies" by both the iPod itself and iTunes.

"Is it possible to delete content without a computer."
Nope! You can only do that with the _videos you have recorded._

How can I get the screen to lock on my iPhone 4, so I don't press buttons while talking?

I just upgraded to the iPhone 4. When I am talking on the phone, the screen doesn't lock, so I am constantly pressing buttons or hanging up on the person I'm talking to. How can I get the screen to lock while I'm talking? It's driving me NUTS.

The otterbox is one of the culprits. Take the phone out of the case and see if it still happens. If so it is not the case. If the problem goes away, then you may need to make the hole slightly larger. My family has three iPhone 4's in otterboxes and none have this problem. Other users on this forum have reported success with the above methods.

Can I lock the screen on my iPod nano

Can I lock the screen on my iPod nano

if it is a 7th gen (newest one) you can press the lock button on top left of pod to turn the screen blank... sadly there is no password lock function. However on settings, if you are used to an iPod touch swipe lock screen, you can set a clock as a lock screen, which can be useful. hope this helps

HT4528 how do i stop my iphone 4 from doing random commands while talking on calls via the touch screen? Can i lock the screen while talking?

how do i stop my iphone 4 from doing random commands while talking on calls via the touch screen? Can i lock the screen while talking?

The iPhone has a proximity sensor located on the top of the phone near the earphone speaker that is supposed to automatically turn off the screen when it is close to your face while on a call, to prevent that very thing from happening. If your phone isn't doing that, try cleaning your screen. Also, if you put a screen protector on your phone made for a different model it may lack the cut-out that is supposed to keep it from blocking the sensor. Try removing your screen protector to see if that helps. If it does, get another screen protector.
