I upgraded to itunes 10.6 and with that "upgrade" I can't manually sunc to my ipod nano 5th gen anymore. I have re-installed itunes, restored my ipod, tried syncing under another users account and everything else I can think of. It syncs ok upon initial start-up but then when I tryp to select podcasts or music to sync to it, itunes crashes. Now that I restored my ipod, I can't even get my old podcasts much less add new ones.

Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
From the notes for the release:
iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
• Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
• Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
• Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
• Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

IPod Nano 5th Gen and pedometer don't work together.

I am a first time iPod owner and bought a new 16 Gb Nano 5th Gen recently. Have been using it during a 5 Km walk every morning.
When the pedometer is operating in the background, the music plays back slowly and on some sounds like bass drum thumps there's a trrr that shouldn't be there.
The speed of playback is not consistently slow, if I hold iPod steady in my hand it plays normally then starts tp "play up" when walking. all is normal when I turn the pedometer off and just listen - on the same walk.
Anyone seen this before?? I haven't tried to reset since I bought it new and began using it like above the next day so I am thinking this is some design problem rather than something that can be fixed. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. rgds. Viber

Thanks deggie,
That's good to know. i thought there might have been a design fault.
I called Apple and they adviced me to do the standard reset. I.e. top switch back and forth and "Menu" + "Centre" buttons. Then the funny thing was, they insisted on me going out of the house for a 5 minute walk. All seemed fine when using pedometer and listening to music. I did think about resetting but since it was only a day old thought - what is there to reset??
Anyway, tomorrow morning will be the real test, all is looking good so far, fingers crossed. rgds Viber

I have a nano 5th gen which I bought new. I no longer have the computer that I sync'd it with and created library on. I have new computer and Itunes library which I want to sync w my nano and songs on it. When I try it tells me I will loose all the songs on my nano bc Im already sync'd on a dif library. How do I keep from loosing all my songs?

Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it with a new or different iTunes library, it will erase what is currently on the iPod and replace it with what is in the new library.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Can you play the song in iTunes?
If you can't the song file is probably corrupt and needs to be replaced.

The music does not belong to you. You have no legal right to it and there is no way to keep it.
Sorry

I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library. Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod. How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

- iTunes purchases by maybe
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
newer copy
BTW, this is the iPod touch forum.

ITunes no longer recognizes my iPod nano 5th gen. When plugged into macbook usb it appears as my iPhone. Previously both devices had individual identities. Have reset iPod and turned macbook off/on.

c) unistalled and reinstalled iTunes
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:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

How do I make WinIdows 8, New Itunes, and Nano 5th gen work together

iI am downloading library books, WMA to Overdrive, then transferring to iTunes/iPod Nano 5th gen.     Problem came when I got a new laptop w/ Windows 8 and installed the Overdrive & iTunes.     Overdrive now tries to transfer directly to my Apple Device ( the Nano 5th) and totally ignores Tunes.   If I look at
Windows Explorer, the book shows on the Nano BUT when I try to see it on my Nano, it's not there.   Not in Albums, or in Audiobooks.   I'm ready to
scream.    Any ideas?

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the article below. It goes over how to manually manage your content using iTunes 11.

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:

My ipod nano 5th gen wont play movies or videos on my ipod but plays them on itunes when i click on it the screen flashes black i have tried taking the movie off my ipod and putting it back on but it still won't work what should i do?

My ipod nano 5th gen. won't play movies or tv shows but it plays them on itunes. When I click on it the screen flashes black. I have tried taking the videos off my ipod and then putting them back on but it still won't work. what should i do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I made a 46.5 min aperture slide show and tried a number of times to Export it so I can burn it to DVD to be viewed on an HDTV, so far with no success! I set computer sleep to 3hrs and let it export over night and the furthest i've gotten is 66% Exported

I made a 46.5 min aperture slide show and tried a number of times to Export it so I can burn it to DVD to be viewed on an HDTV, so far with no success! I set computer sleep to 3hrs and let it export over night and the furthest i've gotten is 66% Exported! Why is it taken so long and seem to stop but the activity status goes up ever so slowley???? Im using an iMac 7,1 2.4 GHz with 6GB of memory running 10.8.2 what am I doing wrong???

Rendering will take a very long time - I once needed 6 hours for a shorter high definition movie with plenty of effects.
What theme are you using and what settings?
The "places" theme needs a good network connection.
And the finished movie will need plenty of disk space.
And the finished movie will need plenty of disk space. Have you checked the available space on your disk?
What exactly happens when Aperture fails to render the movie? Are there any diagnostics, error messages in the console window, that relate to Aperture? Does Aperture alway stop at the same image or video clip?
if all fails, you could render your slideshow in two parts and combine the two videos on your DVD.

My Ipod nano 5th gen lost all of my podcasts and will not download anything from ITunes

All my content on my Ipod nano 5th ed disappeared, and it will not download anything from ITunes. I restoered original content. My operating system is up to date. My capacity is 8 gigs. What more should I do?

The title says "iPod nano 5th gen" but your message says "iPod classic". There is a forum for the iPod classic, if that is what you have.

Just downloaded the newest version of itunes as of 1/31/14 and suddenly after years of my nano 5th gen working fine is rejected by itunes. On top of that it ejects it and will not let it charge. The nano works fine besides and charges via x-box or plug in

I was working through the troubleshooter - looks like there is no driver for the nano.

I upgraded to itunes 10.6 and I can't manually sunc to my ipod nano 5th gen anymore. I have re-installed itunes, restored my ipod and tried it dozens of times
