Ipod nano 7th dies when turn car off

in my car i have my ipod using transmitter and charger. when i turn off  car, i ALWAYS turn off my ipod by holding center button down. somehow  every time i come back and turn my car on the ipod is dead and it was  like i left it on the whole time WHICH I DO NOT. i used to have the ipod  nano 4th or whatever and it never did this...i would do same thing and  when i turned car back on, it picked up on the shuffle/song right where i  left off at. of course if i keep ipod on it would die but i make sure i  turn it on because i dont' want to have it start over in the  shuffle....help!!!

Make sure the headset is plugged all the way in. It is a very tight fit, the plastic on the headset jack should be flush with the body of the Nano.

  • How can i connect my ipod nano 7th gen to my car?

    Hi, how can I connect my ipod nano 7th gen to my car with bluetooth? Since I only have onstar device on my car but no bluetooth device, do I need to buy extra device to connect my ipod ? And what kind of device I shall choose? Thank you!

    Check with the manufacturer of your radio and see if they have a compatible cable.

  • Ipod nano 7th gen not turning on or connecting to laptop??

    My son's ipod nano 7th gen won't turn on and when I connect it to the lap top a message comes up saying device driver not recognised - he was listening to it just last night, can anyone help? He's only had it since his birthday in November.

    I reset the ipod by holding down the power button and the menu button and the apple screen came up after a few moments - this seems to have done the trick!

  • IPod Nano 7th gen not turning on but recognized by iTunes and Windows

    My two-month old 7th gen iPod Nano is not turning on. I've reset and restored it using both Windows (My Computer) and iTunes and have downloaded the and installed the latest version of iTunes. It was working fine and now just will not turn on. It is being recognized by Windows as a removable disc and by iTunes as an iPod that I can sync data onto.
    I've tried the 'hold the power button for 5 seconds' trick to try to manually reset it, as well as other variations with pressing down on the power and menu keys simultaneously. The iPod is new, ordered online and the nearest Apple Store is over 2 hours away from where I live.
    Please help?

    Hello, M.Ram.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that the screen on your iPod nano is black, but is recognized by iTunes.  Take a look at the troubleshooting article below as it may provide some troubleshooting steps that may help.  However, if the issue persists, see the section labeled Issue not resolved.

  • IPod Nano 7th gen wont turn on after a restore

    I tried holding down the top and middle buttons and it wont work, this is a replacement one for an iPod Nano 7th gen with corrupted software, could it be the same problem?
    During the restore it says it's restored and not to disconnect my iPod but then can't seem to find it so it repeats the restore again and again
    Starting to get really annoyed with it now

  • Music keeps cutting out on my ipod nano 7th gen when using bluetooth

    I just recently got an Ipod Nano 7th Gen and the music keeps cutting out when I use bluetooth headphones. It seems like it needs to have a line of sight or else the music will cut out. If I hold the ipod in my hands while running or keep it in my pocket, I am listening to more pauses than actual music. I practically have to hold the Ipod up to my head while running to not have it cut out on me (and that is obviously not comfortable). Is this how it should be or do I have a faulty Ipod? Is there some way that I can fix it or do I need to take it to the Apple store?

    thankfully I was just able to find the answer in another member's post. You can double click the side button to advance the songs. I credit member little goomba for sharing the answer on another post. Now I am back to loving my new Nano!

  • IPod nano 7th generation battery problems

    I fully charge my iPod nano 7th generation then turn it off. Two days later I go to use it and it and it was flat. What is going on?
    sometimes i turn it off then it turns itself back on. But I sat and watched it after being charged and it stayed off but the next day it was still flat.
    I really need to know what's going on. I would appreciate any help.

    Hi Kelci27,
    There are a couple of troubleshooting steps you should take with your iPod nano. First, I would suggest a reset. See this article -
    How to reset iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
    If your battery life issue persists, restore the iPod to factory condition. See this article -
    Restoring iPod to factory settings

    Should it still not be working properly you may want to contact Apple to seek service. See this page -

  • Connecting ipod nano 7th generation through car stereo usb cord.

    When I connect my ipod nano 7th generation to my car stereo through a usb cable, (using a lightning adapter),  I am not able to control my music through the ipod, but only through the car stereo system. The car stereo system won't allow me to play my playlist on shuffle mode nor can I control the ipod itself through the device when it's plugged in. I have to unplug it and make new playlist selections. Any solutions?

    I am having the same problem with mine.  I have a Hyundai Sonota and can pair with my Ipod Nano but cannot connect.  I also would appreciate any help.  Thanks!!

  • My ipod nano 7th gen has suddenly gone black and it wont turn on or connect to a power source.

    I was listening to my ipod nano 7th gen when it went black and the music stopped playing.  It wont turn on when i press the power button and when i connect it up to charge the screen doesn't turn on.  Can anyone tell me how to turn it on again or give me suggestions. 
    Much appriciated,
    MissC@t

    Hey MissC@t,
    Although the following article says 6th generation, most of the troubleshooting steps should still apply to your 7th generation nano. I'd go through the troubleshooting steps and see if that resolves the issue:

  • Ipod Nano 7th Gen Shuffle question...

    Hi, ive just purchased an ipod nano 7th gen, when i use the shuffle function and turn the ipod on the playlist starts back at the begining (i.e 1 of 400) not where i turned it off at (say 30 of 400).
    is there any way to correct this so i can get all the way through a shuffle playlist?
    thanks, Rob.

    Hi Raynlis,
    It sounds like a frustrating situation with your iPod nano not allowing you to play in shuffle mode. You have already done some of the troubleshooting I was going to suggest - resetting the iPod. The next step would be to do a restore of the iPod. See this article -

  • IPod Nano 7th Generation Mulitple Composers

    Hello I have an iPod Nano 7th Generation using Windows 8 iTunes 12. For an example I have a song Wolfgang Gartner - Illmericaand Wolfgang Gartner & Tom Staar - Evil Lurks. But on my iPod Nano 7th Generation when I tap 'Artists' I find
    Wolfgang Gartner
    Wolfgang Gartner & Tom Staar
    Is there a way to fix this in iTunes 12 Windows 8.1? If so please say so. If NOT please so as well! If you don't fullly please ASK! Thank you!

    Make sure the headset is plugged all the way in. It is a very tight fit, the plastic on the headset jack should be flush with the body of the Nano.

  • How do you turn off the voice on the Ipod Nano 7th generation

    How do you turn off the automated voice that tells you how to work the Ipod Nano 7th Generation?

    Try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns VoiceOver off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.
    If that doesn't do it then there are instructions on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064 - you can either do it either directly on the iPad or when connected to your computer's iTunes

    i have a 5th gen ipod nano that freezes when playing songs. i can't skip, turn down volume, turn ipod off. it simply screeches as the song is stuck at a specific point. any suggestions?

    You have 2 options:  #1 - iPod Repair Tutorials
    #2 - take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.
