I have a 6th gen iPod Nano, how do I create a podcast playlist?

Hi,
I have a 6th gen iPod Nano, I would like my ipod to play all unplayed podcasts continously. For instance, once I have played all of the Nerdist podcasts, it automatically starts playing all unplayed Radio Lab podcasts I have loaded.
How do I set this? Can I create a podcast playlist?
Thank you for your help!

ITunes 11.1.5 won't sync podcasts to my 6th gen ipod nano--how do I fix this?

iTunes 11.1.5 won't sync podcasts to my 6th gen ipod nano--how do I fix this?
Until a few months ago, my iTunes had no problem syncing podcasts to my 6th gen ipod nano. Since an update in the iTunes software version (not sure which version), iTunes just won't sync podcasts to the nano. No other changes have occured and only podcasts are affected.
What's going on? How do I fix this?

I had the same problem with my nano when I updated to itunes 11.1.5. It seems that the update does not transfer all of your podcast download preferences. Open itunes, select "Podcasts" from the drop down box in the upper left of the screen. The next screen will give you an option to select "My Podcasts" (top center). This will bring up a list of your podcasts on the left. Right click on one and select "podcast settings". This brings up a settings box on the upper right (this is a new variation) with your current download settings for that podcast. The download setting on mine had defaulted to "off" on all of my podcasts. I just reset them to "all episodes" and all is good.
Hope this helps.

I have a 6th Gen ipod nano. Is there a compatability problem with Windows 8.1?

My 6th gen ipod nano is not being recognised in itunes. I have tried all the suggestions in the itunes troubleshooting section without success. I am running Windows 8.1 , is there a chance of an incompatability problem here?

Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

I have a 6th gen. iPod nano (15GB), if I want to get the new iPod nano, do I get a discount?

Not counting the 10% recycling one since my iPod works perfectly, I just like the new one better and want to know if there is anything apple can do for me, discount-wise

Well that's a bummer, thanks though.

Help with 6th Gen iPod Nano please

Hello, I have a 6th gen ipod nano currently for about 1 and a half years, which has been working fine as of late, but today it lost all battery completely (I had used it for the first time yesterday paired up with the Nike+ attachment). Not knowing the battery had depleted I tried turning it on, but didn't work, decided to charge it just in case it was that. After waiting for a while I tried turning it on once more, connected it with my laptop & iTunes only to see the warning that it had to be restored since it had apparently gone corrupt. Even though it seemed weird, I did accept and let iTunes do it's stuff in order to restore it. About 30 minutes later it said that the server wasn't available for reach and couldn't finish the operation. Tried it a couple of more times only resulting in iTunes freezing over and unavailable to detach the nano from the laptop. I searched online for a manual reset and found the one in the support page (Lower volume + Turn on button for about 8 seconds then the lower + upper volume buttons) only to reach a flashing screen of the apple logo in my nano (lasted less then a second between flashes). iTunes couldn't detect my iPod up to this point. Tried it once more only to reach a white screen with black letters 'Do Not Disconnect' and nothing from the iTunes program (every once in a while it detects the nano but still can't update it because of the server issue). I'm pretty sure I've charged it up to full the iPod by now (both with laptop and directly from an outlet). The only thing I imagine left to do is for the battery to die on itself, which should take between 14 and 28 days, but before waiting that time for nothing, I'd rather see if anyone here has an idea on how to make this thing work again.
Thanks for the help.

6th gen ipod nano not recognized by itunes on my PC (Windows 7). tried everything to fix, but still not working... please help

I have a 6th gen ipod nano that is not recognized by itunes on my PC (Windows 7). I get an error that it 'could not be identified properly'. I have tried all tips on the apple site to correct the problem, including unistalling and reinstalling itunes twice. Nothing works. Has anyone tried something that worked that is not part of the Apple support page (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3218)? Thank you in advance for any help!

I have followed every troubleshooting page on the apple support site yet my ipod nano 6th gen is not recognized by itunes
I have spent 3 days messing with my pc and have made no real progress.
Then it's time to call Apple tech support while you are still under warranty. Every iPod comes with complimentary, single-incident telephone technical support within 90 days of your iPod purchase. If you also purchased AppleCare, then your warranty is extended for technical support and hardware coverage for two years from the original purchase date of your iPod.

I love the 6th Gen. iPod Nano but it has a major deficiency, the power button. I've bought 2 and they both have given me the same issue of the power button becoming slack and not functioning. Why is this so, and how can I fix it??

MAJOR DEFICIENCY = WASTED MONEY:

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

The on/off button on my 6th gen iPod nano recently got spoilt and I sent it back to the shop for a repair/exchange a week ago. Now I have just found out about the new 7th gen iPod nano and I am wondering, can I get the new one as a replacement?

No. You can turn your 6G Nano in to be recycled at your local Apple Store for a 10% discount towards the purchase of a new one. Otherwise, your only other option would be to sell the iPod on Craigslist or eBay and use the proceeds from the sale towards the purchase of the new 7G nano.

I have an 6th gen Ipod that keeps making me restore it. How can I fix this issue

I have a 6th gen ipod that keeps making me restore it. It says there is another application running somewhere else. I just want my sons brand new ipod to work without paying apple another $45.00.

Disable any and all A/V or Security software running on your system before syncing your iPod with iTunes and see if that helps. A simple reboot your or PC may help as well.
If you do disable any security software, make sure to re-enable once you have finished syncing the iPod with iTunes.

Has anyone had a problem with low battery capacity on the 6th gen ipod nano?

I got my dad a 6th gen Ipod nano for his birthday and he is complaining about very low battery power and i was wondering if other nano users were experiencing this problem

Samething here. I got my ipod nano on Christmas 2010 and I always thought that it did not have the 24 hours music playback capacity. This week I had the ultimate test. I had to go the hospital and knew I would be waiting a long time. I fully charged my ipod nano (3 hours connected to my computer)... then, I turned it on at 11:30 in the morning and I played the radio non-stop until 5:30 PM when it just stopped working. That's 6 hours of music playback, not 24...
Is there something I should know about the battery and how to charge it to maximise music playback??

6th gen ipod nano serial number not being recognised by support

I have just tried to register my 6th gen ipod nano on Apple's website and I get a message that says the number is not recognised, recheck and try again. At first used number from nano box, then tried again after connecting nano to computer (same number appears of course) but still not being recognised. The fact that the serial number is not being recognised is not helpful when you need help from support as they also require this information before they will contact you. Why is my nano's serial number not being recognised? More to the point, how do I get apple to recognise it?

Are you sure aren't mistaking I's for 1's or O's of 0s?
If you head to Settings - General -> About, does it list the same serial # there?
