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
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1339
Should it still not be working properly you may want to contact Apple to seek service. See this page -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

  • IPod Nano 7th Generation - Battery life consumes itself

    Good afternon Apple Community,
    My iPod Nano 7th Generation, as stated above, is consuming its battery life at a ridiculously fast rate.
    It is my THIRD replacement and all for the same issue.
    Yes, I have tried changing the settings and YES I have restored the iPod back to factory settings.
    If anyone has insight into this issue and can assist, it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You,
    Blake

    I was researching this for the same reason. I have or have had 10 ipods and this is my 5th nano. It is barely five months old and only used 3 times a week. It was dead for no reason last week...so I charged it up and seemed fine. Then I used it yesterday for a short time, leaving substantial charge showing but today, it was soooo dead that itunes could not even detect it when I plugged it into computer. It was OFF when I put it away. I am sure of that. I think there is a problem but where to turn now? Any answers?

  • Ipod nano 7th generation usb problem

    New iPod nano 7th generation not being recognized when USB plugged in. Not showing a new device or anything.  Have uninstalled/installed iTunes7.  USBs working with other devices including iPhone4S.  Using Windows 7 Home version with all updates.  Have rebooted several times.  No other USB devices plugged in while connecting new nano.  Tried on another machine with Windows 7 Professional with same results - not working.  Any suggestions?  What am I missing?  Any new drivers for 7th generation?  Did see OS 1.01 already available for nano, but cannot download until PC and iTunes recognize the device.  Thanks.

    I figured out the problem.  Very simple, but overlooked at first.  It was the cable that came with the iPod nano.  I plugged it into an outlet using my iPhone cube charger, then connected my nano.  It would not recharge the nano.  Went to the Apple store and exchanged it for one that charged the nano while there.  When i plugged the new one into the PC it recognized the nano, opened iTunes and walked me thru the usual setup.  Synced with no problems.
    So check your cord.

  • IPod nano 7th generation battery issues

    I am only getting 2.5 hours of playback after a full charge to my nano. My older iPod (5th generation) would last for days before it would need a charge. Is this an issue that others have experienced or is this an isolated issue with a defective battery in my unit?

  • IPod nano 7th generation battery in sate of deep discharge?

    Hi all,
    I have not used my iPod nano 7th generation for several weeks, and now have only a black screen, despite attempting to charge it several times. I read where this is considered a deep discharge. Is there a way to recharge the nano myself? Thanks

    Hi,
    Press and hold home and on/off button until the apple logo appears. Then you can charge your ipod. After fully charging it off it and on it again.

    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?
    What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

    Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?

    Get a flashlight and make sure there is no obstruction/dirt/debris in the Nano headphone jack. Be sure you plug the headphones all the way in, the plastic on the headset jack should be flush with the body of the Nano.

  • Ipod nano 7th generation having issues with the UI. Out of box everything worked great. Once I snyc the device and it finished, the UI becomes unuesable. You have to double tap every icon in order to open music, videos, etc.  I cannot swipe to the second

    ipod nano 7th generation having issues with the UI. Out of box everything worked great. Once I snyc the device and it finished, the UI becomes unuesable. You have to double tap every icon in order to open music, videos, etc.  I cannot swipe to the second page of icons,  black box appears around an icon and then switches to a different one anytime I swipe. A box even appears around the time and battery power. iPod & iTunes are both updated. What is the FIX on this issue?

    I had this problem as well.  This is what I found by searching online.  I tried the fix on my nano 7th gen and it worked.  I hope this helps you.  Make sure to use two fingers for sliding and double-click the icons to get into settings.  Good luck.
    It would seem that Voiceover has been enabled on your iPod Nano. The following article contains information regarding Voiceover, and how to disable it once it's been enabled.
    iPod nano (6th generation and later): How to use VoiceOver
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4317
    To turn off VoiceOver on iPod nano using VoiceOver gestures
    From the Home Screen, swipe right or left with two fingers until you see or hear "Page 2 of 2" on iPod nano (7th generation) or "Settings" on iPod (6th generation).
    If the icons have been rearranged, or if there are more than four Home screens, you may hear something different.
    Slide one finger around the screen until you hear Settings. 
    Double-tap to open Settings. 
    Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear General, then double- tap. 
    Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear Accessibility, then double-tap. 
    Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear VoiceOver, then double-tap. 
    Double-tap when you hear "VoiceOver switch button on." 
    You'll hear "VoiceOver off" to confirm the setting. Now you can use standard gestures to control iPod nano.
    Note: You can also turn off VoiceOver by resetting your iPod.

  • Computer doesn't recoginize iPod nano 7th Generation and it will not power on

    My iPod Nano 7th Generation was working I plug it inot the computer and computer would not recoginize it and now it will not power up.

    Try:
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - 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.

  • Ipod Nano 7th Generation is saying Use Itunes to Restore. Itunes no longer recognizes my device

    Please Help, My Ipod nano 7th generation was syncing. When I disconnected from my computer, I no longer had any music on it. When I plugged it back in Itunes prompted me to restore my Ipod. I went ahead and restored it, but it kept asking me to restore. When I unplugged my ipod, I got a white screen saying Use Itunes to Restore. Problem is Itunes no longer picks up my device. I've tried plugging it into different USB ports, I've tried to update Itunes to the newest version, and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I've tried to reset the ipod, but it still goes back to the white screen saying "Use Itunes to Restore". I've been trying everything. Please Help.
    Thanks

    No. You need iTunes on a computer to restore it.  If you don't have iTunes you can download it from here:

    If you don't have a computer, can you can try to borrow one with iTunes installed.

  • My iPod Nano 7th generation is not detected in Itunes

    Hey there,
    I have a iPod Nano 7th generation and I'm working with a Windows 7 64-bit version.
    So when I got my iPod, I installed iTunes and everything went very well..
    but today I tried to sync my iPod and it is not even detected from my iTunes or my computer.
    I had the error -42110, but I found the solution on here, but it didn't work either.
    I went through a lot of questions on here, but I couldn't find any solution for my problem
    Has anyone got any idea?

    well actually I did connect my iPod 3 days later or so to my charger, because a friend of mine asked me if I'm sure that the cable is not broken. So I connected it and it charged, when I thought "Well let's try on the computer again". I plugged it in and it was detected again.. so uhm I don't really know why it did not worked the last times.
    So maybe try to restart your computer and turn off an on again the device and try it later on again.. maybe it will work then:)
    I'm sorry I can't help more!

  • ITunes doesn't recognize IPod Nano 7th Generation

    ITunes doesn't recognize my IPod Nano 7th Generation. I get a message saying "An IPod has been detected but could not be identified properly". My Windows 7 computer shows the IPod Nano as a removable drive until I launch ITunes at which point it disappears from the list of removable drives. I even disabled my security software (Norton 360 but not Spybot S & D) and it didn't solve the problem. Any suggestions..............Thanks
