Ipod classic and nike sports kit

hi,
can anyone tell me if the ipod classic is compatible with the nike sports kit, importantly if its not why not?
i spent a considerable amount of money purchasing what i thought was a premium product and it would now appear that it will not even support something that a cheaper ipod (nano) will, how can this be so?
cheers

The iPod classic is not compatible with the iPod sport kit, likely because its hard drive is much more vulnerable to being dropped than an iPod nano's flash media.

IPod Classic and Nike + iPod Sport Kit

Will an iPod Classic work for the Nike + iPod Sport Kit?
Why does the Nike + iPod Sport Kit only work for iPod Nano and iPod Touch?

No.
Why does the Nike + iPod Sport Kit only work for iPod Nano and iPod Touch?
Only those iPods contain the firmware needed to use it, likely because iPods with a hard drive such as the iPod classic are much more vulnerable to drops and other hard impacts than iPods which use flash media.

IPod Classic and Nike+

Hey all,
First post on the Apple forums. After resisting for many years, I broke down and bought an iPod Classic a little over a month ago. I would like to know if there are any rumors about getting the Nike+ device to be compatible with the Classic.
Thanks in advance, as I've had no luck with Google.
Best,
DF

Unfortunately we aren't allowed to discuss rumors here on Apple's discussion forums.
Specifically, *"speculations or rumors about unannounced products."*
Sorry.

Internet and Itunes with Nike + Sports kit.

Hi,
I am thinking about buying a nike+ sports kit but have just a few questions!
I have my ipod synced/itunes on a Windows Vista laptop, that has no internet.
To use nike+ sports kit do you have to have the internet on the computer which has your ipod synced to itunes?
The other computer in my houshold is a windows XP computer *with internet.*
do i need to sync my ipod/itunes onto this computer in-order to use the sports kit? Or can I use the sports kit on the computer with the internet but which is not the computer i would normally use for general ipod use (Syncing of songs etc)...? DO I need to have all of songs, itunes, internet & sports kit all *on the ONE computer?*
Very tricky to explain...
Help much appreciated!!

The Nike+ plus sports kit does support playback of Audiobooks. You need to start the audiobook before you start Nike+.

For anyone following, I looked further into the tape cassette adapter and it seems to get the best reviews vs. FM transmitter. Guess there is a good reason that I have the last year model with a tape cassette. Worth mentioning is the Maxell one gets a better review than the Monter one. Not sure why, but it's cheaper. Anyone else find a good quality tape cassette adapter?

IPod Video and Nike+?

Hey everyone,
I was just browsing through the Apple Store and took notice of the Nike+iPod Sport Kit and read its description about it and the Nano. Does this mean only the second generation Nanos are capable of using the Nike+ Sport Kit?
I want to know if its capable of being used on our video iPods, since I don't want to make a purchase of the sport kit and find out that its not compatible with our videos.
And besides, I could use new shoes, and a Nike+ in black doesn't look too shabby

The Nano is the only iPod supported because it uses Flash memory... however the vibration is likely not the reasoning.
The sensor in the shoe needs to constantly stream data to the iPod during a run. If the iPod was hard drive based, it would require the hard drive to be constantly spinning to allow data to be written. This would severely impact battery life.
Since the Nano is Flash based, you can stream data to it without worrying about the negative battery impact.
Of course, vibrations are always a factor, but in most cases running with a hard drive based ipod is not going to do any damage. In fact, Apple indicates that one of the uses for an iPod (all of them) is for exercise. People (myself included) have been running with hard drive based iPods since they were first released.
Who on here remembers having to dock a hard drive head just to move the computer it was installed in safely?
Yes, I remember those days

There are now two Nike+ Sport kit discussion forums

Looks like Apple is splitting the Nike+ Sport kit forum into two groups--1st generation and 2nd generation Nanos. Here's the link for the Nike+ Sport kit for the 2nd gen Nano http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1132
It is also harder to find these two groups if you are new to the Apple Forums. (I asked some friends who don't use the forums to try this out and they were baffled how to find the two Nike+ Sport Kit discussion forums.)

I suspect it's simply that Apple is dividing up discussions in a way that seems logical to them and then indexing accordingly. So if there are two generations of Nanos, they have two Nike+ Sport kit forums. Simple for Apple. Not so simple for users of the Nike+ Sport kit.
For example, I will soon own both Nanos, so when I have question about the Nike+ kit my question will probably relate to both Nanos and will have to post my question on both forums. When I answer questions, the answers about Nike+ in many cases will be the same on both forums. And when the third generation Nano comes out, same drill, now multiplied 3 times!
So rather than splitting the Nike+ forum to follow the multiple generations of Nanos, it would make more sense for members of the Nike+ Sport Kit discussion forum to have one forum for us that includes all generations of Nanos.

Why no Nike+ sport kit category for 3rd gen nano?

Considering all the problems people (myself included) have been having with the 3rd gen nano and the Nike+ sport kit, does anyone wonder why there is no category for it here (only 1st and 2nd gen)?

It will be coming out soon.

What happens when the iPod is plugged in? anything? any errors?
Why is 50GB of music gone? All music should exist on the computer. Only a fool would rely on a single device which could easily be lost or stolen to store their content on.

I have an iPod Classic and the latest version of iTunes. I make all my purchases on my computer, but when I try to click the "add to" option and transfer the songs to my iPod, it doesn't work. How can I get my songs from my computer to my iPod?

Can we share music from my hard drive plugged into his pc? and if so how? also can I then copy music from his library onto the hard drive so that i can sync them to my i pod. Or is there a way we can do it with just the i pods and pc? Pls help techno novice!

System Preferences - Sharing. If you cannot find System Preferences, then use Command - Spacebar and type System Preference and when you see it in Spotlight (uper right) hit return.

My MacBook Pro hard drive crashed a little while ago and has been replaced. Is it possible to take tunes from iPod Classic and transfer all of them back to iTunes on computer?

HT1657 I rented a movie to add onto my ipod classic and when I moved it to my ipod it is no longer there and it is no longer in my purchased section on my itunes.

I recently rented a movie to add on my ipod classic and it wasn't transferring when I would sync so I manually move it to my ipod but when I go on my ipod it is not there and it is no longer in my purchases on itunes. help!

Is this on your computer or on iPad/iPhone ? If you are on an iPad or iPhone then it should have downloaded into the Videos app - iTunes on those devices is just the iTunes store, and if you just see the Ts & Cs link on the Downloads tab then that means that there are no outstanding downloads waiting.

I have an ipod classic and just had to replace my old laptop. When purchasing tunes, while they show up on my laptop they no longer sync to my ipod. can anyone help?

I have an ipod classic and just had to replace my laptop. When I purchase music, while it downloads to my laptop, it no longer syncs to my ipod. Any ideas?

There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

I wiped my ipod classic and then my computer crashed, so i no longer have the songs i purchsed from itunes on my ipod or computer! I have a new computer now with itunes installed, can I get the songs purchased previously from itunes somehow?

Yes, you can!(:
STEP 1: Open iTunes
STEP 2: Navigate to the "iTunes Store". It can be found under the "STORE" tab.
STEP 3: On the right side of the store there should be a "Quick Links" Section. Click on the "Purchased" link.
STEP 4: Navigate to the "Music" tab and click on "All Songs". Then at the bottom of the screen there will be a button that says "Download All". Click the button and your songs will be begin downloading!
NOTE: This will only work with songs that you bought from the iTunes store, if you imported them from a CD, you will have to do it again.
NOTE: You can also do this with Apps, Movies, TV Shows, and Books.
NOTE: You may have to sign in with your Apple ID to verify the download.
Hope this helped! Enjoy your music!(:
