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.

  • 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!

  • Nano 7th Gen. plays music from a deleted playlist.

    In December added a Xmas playlist to my iPod.  In January I deleted the Xmas playlist.  I continue to have music from the Xmas playlist play despite a subsquent review of 1400 songs on 3 remaining playlists.  I see no titles from the Xmas playlist.  What do I do now? 

    Hi Kerry Fan,
    If you have all the content that is currently on your iPod nano in iTunes, the most direct way of resolving this may be to restore the iPod to factory settings, then reload the content back from iTunes. You may find the following article helpful:

  • How do I get music onto my i pod nano 7th gen

    I am going out of my mind.  I purchased over 200 songs via itunes and can not get them on to my i pod nano 7th gen no matter what ai try--- All my music is also srored in my i cloud--- Does any one know how to move it from the i cloud to the 7th gen i pod nano?
      Help Help Help --- I am ready to throw this thing in the river, as I can't get any of the music I have paid for on it.   All my music automatically downloads to my i phone S via Wi-Fi, I don't have to plug in to itunes or synch-- the music just "appears"----magic???
    As the sound quality on the iphone is no where near as good as on the Nano ( which is meant to ONLY BE A MUSIC PLAYER)----I really want to listen to it on my new Nano----What the **** is wrong with Apple that they enjoy torturing us with ever new product upgrade release that they don' t tell anyone how to use!
    ***!--Apple   you SUCK at customer service and support, which is why all these user groups have cropped up trying to help each other. as Apple is not interest ed in customer service, only in selling us things they don't, can't or just plain won't tell us how to operate!!!
    Why is it impossible to put music on an Nano 7th generation.   Does any one know of a phone number for a real Apple human that may deign to help me?
    Please !!!!!
    Apple, we buy your stuff- why can't you tell us how to use it?

  • How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

    How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

    Well, let take the personal service point of view : let say, I had two calendars on my iCloud account : one for work, one for my leisure activities.
    On my MacBook Pro that I use at home as well as at my office, I would want the two calendars to show and since I am alone in my office, I would want the alerts for both my work and my leisure activities to show (and make a sound at the same time).
    But on my iPad that I only use at home, I would only want my leisure activities alerts to show (and make a sound) and on my iPhone that I only use for work, I would only want my work alerts to show (and make a sound).
    That is a personal service that simply does not work.
    Why would Apple give us the opportunity to hide some calendars on certain devices but not allow us, on these same devices, to switch off the alerts linked to these calendars that we have chosen to hide ? Why having alerts of calendars that do not even show on these devices ?
    And I am an Apple fan since 1984, since the very first Mac. I still do believe Macs and Apple devices and/or software (iOS, OS X and others...) are much better and much more efficient than " Microsoft, Windows, Google and other Android devices and software.
    But that does not mean everything's perfect (and I find that quite normal).
    Nevertheless, in this case, letting alerts make a sound on a device where a specific calendar is not shown, that does not make any sense : when uncheking those calendars, the alerts linked to those calendars should be automatically switch off (but alerts should be able to work on the calendars that are shown.)

  • How do I downgrade from Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 for my wife , me and my office

    how do I downgrade from Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 for my wife , me and my office

    You cannot downgrade a machine that shipped with 10.7 installed. Such a machine can only run 10.7 or later. As for the older machines, you would need to use the old Mac OS X install disks to erase the hard drive and reinstall the system.
    I don't really understand the issue regarding minimizing windows. If the difficulty is that you want to use the green "+" button in the iTunes window's title bar to resize the window rather than toggling between the full window and the simplified window with only play controls, that is not unique to Lion. That has behaved the same way for some time. Try option-clicking on the "+" button.

  • I use my new nano (7th gen) to listen to books on CD that i sync from my mac.  The problem is, it stops at the end of each CD.  How can I get it to continue on to the hanks, Wendy

    I use my new nano (7th gen) to listen to books on CD that I sync from my Mac.  The problem is that it stops at the end of each CD (very annoying).  How can I get it to continue on the the next CD?  Thanks, Wendy

    Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones?  You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack.  Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage.  You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
    I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?

  • How to stream movies from an ipod nano 7th gen

    I just bought an iPod nano 7th gen and I own an Apple TV and a lightning connector  to hdmi cable. Is there a way to put movies from my iPod on my tv

    The 6th gen nano could not play videos, so it certainly could not stream them to a TV.  It may have been able to show photo slideshows on a TV screen.
    The 5th gen nano (plus 3rd and 4th gen) may have had the ability, but I don't think its output was HDMI.  You could use this
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC748ZM/A/apple-composite-av-cable
    to output a composite (non-digital) signal to a TV.  But the new nano has a Lightning connector, so I probably won't work (even if you use an adapter).

  • 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.

    When I connect my iPod nano 7th gen. to my computer and open itunes, there is a message that says the iPod could not be detected. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • I got a new iPod nano 7th gen., but when I tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Some of the videos in your iTunes library cannot be copied to your iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod.

    I got a new iPod nano 7th gen, but when i tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Soem of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to yor iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod. What should I do?

    I kept having a similar problem - 3 out of the 10 videos I had on iTunes wouldn't sync. They were in the right format and I KNEW they worked on my iPod because I'd RECORDED them on my iPod. I finally figured out what to do! Go to the movies in your iTunes library. Click on one that does not sync. Click on "Advanced" at the top of iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version". Once that's finished, be sure you delete the old version so you don't keep getting the error (or have 2 copies of the same video) and sync. This should eliminate the problem. At least it did for me!
