Ipod nano - audio distortion ????

I got my Nano in October and noticed that the audio was distorted when using external JBL speakers. I haven't used my buds for a while, but during the holidays, I noticed the distortion with the buds. Last week, I purchased new Sony buds and the distortion is even more noticeable. It's obviously the Nano and not the speakers since it's not their when I plug into the Mini and 20G don't have this distortion. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions? Do I just return it?

have you tried putting in new songs?...see if the
songs are still distorted...if it is... there really
something needs to be fixed..goodluck!

  • Help! 2nd gen. ipod nano audio output not balanced

    anyone knows what the problem of my ipod nano? while i was listening suddenly there was no audio output on the right earphone. i restarted it at least 5 times, even changed to another earphone. then after a few hours i tried to test it again and the right earphone works again but volume is much lower than the left earphone.
    i dropped it at least about 2 months ago, could it be the cause?
    will apple warranty work on my unit?

    First off, be sure that you've fulle connected the headphones/ear buds to the iPod correctly. I know it's a simple thing, but sometimes is accidentally looked over, and can be the cause of this type of issue.
    Next, I wold suggest that you restore your iPod.
    If a restore doesn't help, and you're iPod is still under the 1-year warranty, I would suggest that you send your iPod in to get it repaired/replaced. Apple could possibly cover for it witht he warranty (although I can't guarantee it).
    You can place an iPod service request online here -> iPod Service
    Most likely, if a restore doesn't help your situation, then it's an internal sound problem with the iPod that will have to be replaced by Apple.

    My new IPod Nano 7th gen doesn't fit my older audio devices, eg, car, radio alarm.  I bought a Lightning adaptor.  Still no luck.  Works fine with the earphones.

  • Ipod nano 4gb and car audio

    Hi everyone, I've got an iPod Nano 4gb and am a little confused as to what is required to connect this device to my factory installed cd player. I drive a 2006 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab and have the basic factory audio system. I spoke with the dealership where I purchased the truck and they said that I need an interface and harness for $400 + labor. I don't think that is an option for me -- way too expensive.
    What exactly is need to connect my iPod Nano to my truck's audio system? Do I need to purchase a new audio device that supports the iPod?
    Thanks

    The following website will list different types of car audio devices made for iPods. I hope it lists something that may help you.

  • Ipod nano 7th GEN no audio out from head phones jack

    I am trying to use my Ipod nano 7th Gen with a monster wireless remote that connects to the charging and sync connection. The remote works fine and I can control the Ipod just fine with it, but when I connect the headphones to the headphone jack there is no audio. If I remove the wireless remote receiver from the charging sync connection the headphones jack works just fine. I am using a lighting speed to a 30 pin adaptor because the monster remote receiver is of the 30 pin format if that matters.
    Please let me know if this is normal or if there is a work around. My intention is to use the Ipod connected to a motorcycle sound system using the headphones connection to connect it to the motorcycle system amp and control the Ipod wirelessly.
    Thank you!

    Can you provide a link to the monster product, or the model name/number?  If it's a Bluetooth product, it seems superfluous to connect the receiver to the dock connector, because the 7th gen nano has built in Bluetooth.
    So, IF the remote control device is Bluetooth, you may be able to pair to it from the nano without connecting the receiver device to the dock connector.
    If it's not Bluetooth, you may be able to find an equivalent remote control device that IS Bluetooth, and not need to connect anything to the dock connector, which seems to be the source of the problem.

  • IPod Nano + Sony personal audio system - how to get radio to play?

    We got a Sony RDP-M7iPN personal audio system - that's a good thing.
    But the iPod Nano won't play radio if the headphones aren't plugged in.  When it's docked on the Sony system, it won't play radio and there's no way to get a headphone jack plugged in (no room).
    Is there something we're missing?  Or is there some adapter we need?  Any thoughts?

    Go on to System Preferences and open the Bluetooth icon. Ensure that the SRS-X2 speaker is switched on and next to the Macbook; press down on the Bluetootch icon that is above "pairing" on the speaker and keep pressing it down until it beeps; your Macbook should now be able to find the speaker and you can click pair to pair the two together.

  • What do I do to download an audio book to ipod nano

    What do I do to download an audio book to ipod nano?

    If you are currently using automatic syncing for the other media types, such as songs, you need to go to iPod's Books tab.
    First, if you are using the latest version of iTunes, it may hide the sidebar.  To show the sidebar, go up to the menu bar, and under View, select Show Sidebar.
    Select the iPod in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  Over to the right, there is a row of "tabs" that starts with Summary.  One of those tabs is Books (if you currently have audiobooks in your iTunes library).  On the Books tab, set it to Sync Audiobooks, and choose to sync All audiobooks or Selected audiobooks.  If you choose the latter, checkmark the audiobooks you want to sync below.  Apply the change.
    If you use the manual method (not automatic syncing) to load songs, by dragging songs from the iTunes library to the iPod in the sidebar, you can do the same with audiobooks.  Find them under Books in the iTunes library, and drag the ones you want to the iPod in the sidebar.

  • I have an ipod nano but i dontknow how can syc the audio books on it?!

    how can i use audio books in my ipod nano?!
    i have a windows7 pc

    Configure the audiobooks to sync to your iPod from under the iPod's Books configuration tab in iTunes.
    To access this configuration tab, plug in your iPod and select it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab.  Now locate the Books tab and select it.  Here you can configure what and how audiobooks are synced to the device.
    If you make any changes to this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button on in the lower right hand corner.

  • When listening to an audio book the ipod nano (6th generation) keeps turning off?

    Help!  I just purchased an ipod nano (6th generation) for the sole purpose of listening to audio books.  When I start a book about 20 seconds into it the screen goes dark and  the ipod stops...then I have to turn the on/off switch on to begin the book again.  I'm sure it has something to do with the settings, but I cannot locate the information I need in the ipod manual.  Any help anyone can give me would be much appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    I saw your other post, but thought I would reply here as well. It is all about getting that headset seated all the way. If you can see any silver of the plug, it is not in far enough. Push harder. If it just won't go in, look in there to see if it is blocked. The bottom of the headset port is white, so if it appears all dark at the bottom... something is in there.

    Hello Clifforce,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    There are two things you could do here. First, change the *Media Type* of the audiobook tracks in iTunes to "Audiobook" via the "Get Info" screen under the Options tab.
    Under this same tab, you could also tick the "Skip when Shuffling" option for these tracks. When you have finished, sync the updated changes to your iPod.
