Ipod nano, blank without charger

if i turn it off for 10 minutes, it won't turn back on, even with a fully charged battery. i figured getting the extended warrenty will fix my problems?
windows   Windows XP   piece of crap

Why buy the extended warranty when your ipod is still within the standard 12 month one?
You can arrange online service here.
Service request.
Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.

  • My ipod nano is fully charged, I put on shuffle and song starts about 1 minute into song it shuts off can anyone help?

    My ipod nano is fully charged, I put it on shuffle and the song starts, about 1 minute into the song the ipod shuts, I push the power button and it turns on to play screen I push play and song starts again where it was when it shut off. Can anyone help?

    This is usually a good indication that your headphones aren't plugged all the way in.  The white part of the headset should be flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the headphone's plug should still be seen.  The headphone jacks on the newer nanos are a bit tighter than in previous generations and require a bit of extra force.

  • My ipod nano is fully charged (I believe) but every time i disconnect from the computer it turns itself off

    My ipod nano is fully charged (I believe) but every time i disconnect from the computer the screen just shuts down and nothing happens. Occasionally it might work but the battery is already as low as it can go and turns it self off. What should i do?

    So the iPod only powers on when connected to an external power source such as a USB port on your PC or when connected to a wall charger?  If so, that is a very good indication that your iPod's battery is shot and in need of replacement.
    Apple can swap it out for a flat fee or you can send it to a third party repair service for a bit less.

    The warranty for ipod nano in india is here:

    Im not really sure but some resellers have their own warranty.
    If the iPod is brand new, it should have the apple one year limited warranty
    hope it helps

  • HT1435 my 3rd generation iPod nano won't charge

    My 3rd generation iPod nano won't charge and when i connect it, it shows up charging then the screen goes black and wont work. Can i get it replaced for a new one? or a different one? What can i do?

    Try these steps listed below.
    1. Run “c:\WINDOWS\system32\devmgmt.msc” (i.e. *Device Manager*), and leave it open for now for later use
    2. Start up iTunes
    3. Next, connect your iPod.
    4. Go to your iPod Settings and select the “Enable disk use” option from under theSummary tab.
    5. A dialog box will pop up reminding you that you’ll need to manually eject. Go ahead and hit OK
    6. Hit Apply to save changes to the iPod
    7. Quickly switch to the Device Manager window and right-click on any item within the window and select “Scan for hardware changes”
    8. Finally, switch back to iTunes, and try re-syncing your iPod to see if it helped.
    It might not also hurt to trash your iPod's Photo cache if it has one (i.e. you sync photos to the iPod).  See this article for information on where to find this folder on your Windows XP machine.

  • TA44551 My iPod nano won't charge.

    My iPod nano won't charge.  It's only 2 months old.  I've tried using two different computers (direct connect - no USB hub, Windows 7) as well as a wall plug.  Checked the nano port for dirt.  Don't have a second cord.

    Two possibilities that i can think of:
    One- Your charger isn't working try getting a new one.
    or
    Two- Your iPod needs a new battery. Take it into the apple store to have it fixed or replaced.

  • My Ipod Nano 3G cannot charge

    I got this new Ipod Nano 3G from a friend who got it a long time ago. I plugged it in straight into the wall charger i had for my Iphone. The battery bar then appeared to be full and had the "plug" symbol instead of the lightning bolt. When i plugged it out, the screen just blanked out and i could not switch the ipod on. I tried plugging it into my computer and the same problem popped up. The bar always shows that the battery is fullly charged but blanks out when i plug it out. It is really frustrating. It even blanked out even when i left it plugged in for 3 hours. Appparently the battery did not charge at all. Did i make a mistake when i plugged the new ipod into the wall charger instead of a computer?
    Can somebody help me solve this problem? I can't even use the new ipod at all which is pretty saddening.

    Hello musicfireworks,
    I would be concerned with this as well.  Following the Five Rs for iPod nano (3rd generation) might help with this. You can find the steps at the following link:

    I hope this gets your new iPod nano working!

  • IPod nano does not charge & is not recognized by computer or iTunes

    I have a 1st generation nano 1 GIG.
    It appears "dead."
    It is not recognized by My Computer, iTunes or the Ipod Updater (The updater asks that I connect the iPod, which I do). The iPod diagnostics through iTunes also reports that my iPod is not connected.
    I have tried my iPod on 4 different machines, with one of them having USB 2.0.
    I tried the following from Jeff Bryan. (I don't know if the links from his post have carried over into this post.) So I will list the things I have tried near the end of this post.
    - My iPod won't turn on.
    - iPod battery doesn't charge.
    - iTunes 7 doesn't recognize the iPod.
    - Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod.
    - iPod appears in Windows Explorer but does not appear in iTunes.
    - iPod does not appear in iTunes.
    - Fast user switching in Windows XP is not supported.
    I tried resetting my iPod by switching the Hold button on and off and then pressing Menu and the Select button for 6-10 seconds. I have done this over and over and over.
    I have uninstalled the latest iTunes, reboot, reinstall - same problem.
    I have stopped the iPod service, plugged in the iPod, but it isn't recognized by My Computer as stated in the Apple Do-It-Yourself Help. I launched iTunes - same problem.
    I used the window cleanup utility, reboot, reinstall iTunes, connect iPod - same problem.
    I have used the Windows ipconfig utility to change my boot parameters, but still nothing.
    If anyone has any ideas, I would greatly appreciate them.
    My iPod is just shy of 6 months.
    I do have a replacement contract with Best Buy - but I would like to cover all the bases before I succumb to defeat.
    Thanks

  • IPod nano will not charge when plugged into a computer, or power adapter

    This is an 8gb iPod nano 4th gen. Today, I was playing it on the stereo, and it ran out of juice, so i plugged it into my computer to charge. It would flash the "Connect to Power" screen, then turn off, then turn on, showing the apple logo, a few seconds later it goes to the main screen. Almost immediately, it shows the "Connect to Power" screen again, and turns off. This cycle just repeats over and over again.
    I have tried two different usb cord, and all of the ports on my iMac, in addition to a AC adapter/charger. Each time warranted the same results. I have tried the menu + center button reset multiple times, but to no avail. I would reformat it, but alas, neither itunes nor finder will recognize it.

    Sounds like a dock connector problem on the Nano, check it and make sure there is not debris, lint, etc. and clean it if there is. Also, check for bent/damaged pins.

  • IPod Nano won't charge with USB 2.0

    I've had an iPod Nano for a few weeks now. When I first got it, I was able to charge it up over USB 2.0 with no problem. Now, the computer recognizes the iPod, and the iPod says it's charging, but it doesn't actually charge.
    I can still charge it using the firewire power adaptor from my 20gig iPod. It seems like this only started happening after I started charging via the firewire adapter. Could the firewire adapter be causing problems?

    I had to install a USB 2.0 PCI card in my G4 tower to use the nano. Shouldn't this provide enough power? I also tried hooking it up to a USB 2.0 hub with an external power supply, so that should provide enough power too, shouldn't it?

  • Does the iPod nano 3rd Generation charge and sync in an iPhone 3G Dock?

    I wanna bye an iPhone 3G Dock. Now I have the question if I can connect my iPod nano 3rd Generation to the new dock for syncing and charging. On Apples homepage is the campatibility status set to only iPhone 3G, but I question this because older docks, like the one for the old iPod Photo works with other iPods as well.
    The dock connector on the iPhone 3G dock seems to be the same as the one on the charging cable and that cable has to be inserted in the dock. So why should it not work?
    I know I could bye the iPhone 3G cradle for the universal dock I already have, but I want to have the ability to make speakerphone conversations with the iPhone in the dock. That only works well with the original iPhone 3G dock.
    Can someone help me?

    Bit late on the old reply, but i'm using a different Apple Dock for my Nano. I have the Universal one,but it looked so big for the little Nano. I stumbled across an iPhone one by mistake, but only cost me £7 delivered, brand new.
    So in answer to your question, yes. And it enables me to get a skin on the iPod and still use the dock...

  • Ipod nano will not charge and will not be recognizsed by itunes

    I got an ipod nano 4gb today, if i plug it into the computer , windows will recognize it like for the device connected sound, but neither my computer nor itunes will show the ipod. the second i disconnect the ipod it says that there is no battery life, its new out of the box, no matter how long i charge it, it still says that there is no battery. what can i do, should i get it fixed or replaced.

    Have you taken it back to the shop and plugged it into their computer? Does their computer or itunes recognise it? If not, new ipod please. If yes, probably something wrong with your computer/cable/port etc.

  • Ipod Nano won't charge or show in itunes

    I bought a used nano, either 1st or 2nd generation, not sure.  The usb charger that I use for iphone and ipod classic seems to work; it provides power to the nano.  But the nano will not charge (batter dead?) and it does not show in itunes.  I've gone through all the trouble-shooting steps, including putting it into disk mode, but it still will not show in itunes.  Is it just dead or is there something I can do?  I paid 50 cents at a garage sale so can't go too far wrong but it would be nice if I could get it to work.  Thanks!
