I have a iPod nano 4th gen that is stuck in a recovery mode.

Last week my iPod nano wouldn't turn on (black screen no apple logo) The day previous to that I stopped hearing the wheel clicking. Today I have plugged my iPod into my computer to restore it and my computer says it is stuck in recovery mode. when I restore the iPod I wait for all the prompts to finish then I get a message box saying "iTunes needs to prepare your iPod for recovery. Please leave you iPod connected" I click continue and keep it connected. I then hear 4 beeps coming from my iPod then I am back at the option to restore. I have done the 5 r's and also turned off my anti-virus. I am unsure what else to do. The iPod does appear in my device manager. I am using windows 7 ultimate 64x. Please help.

Bump please help me forum

    If the iPod is the only place that you have the music (e.g. you don't have it on a backup drive) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy it back from it : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    You can then add it to your computer's iTunes library via File > Add To Library

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Try when connected to another network
    - Update via iTunes on a computer.

  • I have an iPod touch 4th gen that says it is up to date with iOS 6.1.6 can't I update it any further?

    I have an iPod touch 4th gen that says that it is up to date with iOS 6.1.6. Is it possible to update to further or is it too old? I would like to get it up to iOS7. My games run slow and some of the newer games won't download on this version.

    As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • I have an ipod touch 4th Gen that everything was working perfectly. After the last update of iOs5, the battery have charge 20 minutes. Even after the correction of the iOS 5.0.1 the battery have the same 20 minutes. What I can do?

    Hi

    Same thing here. Try putting the brightness down all the way (its hard to see at first but you will get used to it) and one more thing is that close all you open apps. So to do that you have to click the home button twice (after you put your passcode in) and you will see some apps in the bottom. Hold it until there is a red - sign. click all of them so they go away. This does not delete your apps it just makes your ipod better.

  • I have a ipod nano 4th gen.

    I have a ipod nano 4th gen. and have no patience to change the battery myself. Where is the best place to take it or send it to get the battery replaced?

    Apple can do it for a flat fee.  Here is pricing.

    There are several third party repair centers out there who can do the job for you.  Just make sure you shop around for the best experience.

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?

  • I have an iPod nano (4th gen), loaded with music from my own CD collection.  I loaded the music from a laptop I no longer have.  Is there any way to delete some of the music using a different laptop?  Thanks!

    Can you help me with deleting music from my iPod nano?  The music was from my own CDs and I no longer have the laptop I used.

    iTunes and Apple's devices work as an ecosystem. iTunes is designed to sync with Apple's products, not anyone else's. You'll need your songs in a format compatable with the Samsung phone and to use the software transfer program supplied/recommended. It is essentially not an Apple/iTunes problem. You may have better luck finding the information you need on Samsung's forums.

  • I have an ipod nano 4th gen.  It shows up on my desktop, but it isn't recognized in itunes.  It also doesn't play certain songs.

    The pop up screen says that I need to reformat it.  I've have tried all of the troubleshooting tip on here.  I have a  white macbook.

    Did you try reformatting it then?  If so, what happens when you tried?  What happens if you try connecting the iPod to your PC in Disk Mode?

  • Ipod nano 4th gen stuck on apple logo even after restore

    Since you have the "exact" same problem, why don't you do any of the following:
    If you have AppleCare and/or still under warranty, give them a call.  If not, take your iPod to your local Apple Store or AASP.  Let them properly diagnose the problem and provide you w/a repair estimate.
    U.S. iPod and Mac technical support: 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273)
    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.
