How many songs can a 2GB nano hold?

My daughter has an ipod mini that holds 1000 songs on it. Her mini and my sons ipod nano are on the same account so they share the same songs. My daughter has 265 songs total and was trying to update my sons nano. When she tryed it said that he didnt have enough room left on his ipod. When i ordered the nano i thought that a 2GB held up 2 500 songs. Am I wrong? If not, why wont 265 songs fit on my sons ipod?

A 2GB iPod nano will hold as many songs and other types of data as will take up 1.8GB. If the iPod is being used to store files or photos, or if the music on it is in AIFF or Apple Lossless format, the actual number of songs which will fit on the iPod may be greatly reduced. In the first case, delete any unnecessary data from the iPod, and in the second, use these instructions to convert the songs to MP3 or AAC format. AAC songs will give you better quality for the same amount of disk space.

    Are you usingf 128-Kbps AAC format? That is a compressed format.
    To use compression go to the Summary pane for the iPod in iTunes and check the box that says convert higher bitrate songs to XX AAC.
    XX set at 12k kbps is a good compromise of compression and quality..

  • Approx how many songs will new ipod nano hold?

    My daughter has an older generation ipod touch and she has exceeded its storage capacity.  Do I need to go to the ipod classic or will the new nano work?

    The iPhone can indeed be used as an iPod - there's an app for that, preinstalled, imaginatively named "iPod".
    You can put music on the iPhone in exactly the same way you can with the iPod Touch - the iPhone really IS an iPod Touch, with a phone app.

    IMPORTANT - if your daughter has bought music directly on the iPod Touch, make sure to sync it to the computer first: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848

  • How many songs can iTouch hold?

    Approximately, how many songs can a 64gb iTouch hold? - the songs will be converted by iTunes to 128k and assume the average song length is 2 minutes 45 seconds.  And I'm curious what the formula is. Thanks.

    128 kb/s = 16 kB/s. 2 minutes 45 secs = 165 seconds. 16 x 165 = 2,640 kB = 2.64 MB.
    64GB = 64,000 MB. 64000 divided by 2.64 = 24,242 songs.

  • How many songs does the IPod Nano 16GB hold?

    I want to buy an IPod Nano 16GB and I want to know how many songs can it hold?

    Kind of as an estimate, I have all my music at 256Kbps on a 32GB iPhone, I have about 2800 songs on it. You should probably half that for a 16GB Nano if all music is at 256Kbps taking into account deggies post as well.

  • How Many Songs Can iTunes hold? My Library Is Becoming Quite Large

    My iTunes library is getting very large, how many songs can it hold?

    There is no fixed limit. However, running a very large library on a less-than-powerful machine may result in slow performance. Also, having too many smart playlists with live updating slows the machine down.
    There are some big ones out there, even over 1 TB. Search the web on "biggest itunes library" for some war stories.

  • How many song can you put on your ipod with 16 gb

    how many song can you put on a 16 gb ipod

    With overhead for the software, the 16GB Nano has 14.88GB useable. I have 1,968 songs on mine, using 9.5GB, leaving 5.4 free. Assuming that all 1,968 songs are approximately the same length and size (which of course they aren't ), that would leave me room for ~1,118 more songs for a total of 3,086 songs.

  • With 16GB, how many songs can be stored in the IPAD mini?

  • How many songs can I put into iTunes?

    How many songs can I put into iTunes? I have about 100,00 tracks and I wnat the convenience of having them all in the library but not if it bogs down the software. Is there a limit to how many iTunes can handle?

    Not sure if you meant 10,000 or 100,000 but iTunes will cope with either. Obviously as the size of the library increases there will be some impact on performance. A key factor is the number playlists that you create as these often need to be revaluated each time you add, play or remove a track. Excessive playlists with a large library tends to slow things down.
