Ipod Nano Capacity went from 1.9GB to 1.8GB

I had about 400mb of music loaded onto my 2gb ipod nano, in the about screen and in itunes it said it had a capacity of 1.9GB. I accidently deleted all the music off my ipod, and now it says it has only 1.8GB of capacity. I've tried resetting the ipod, restoring it using the ipod updater, and formatting it in disk mode, but I haven't been able to get this 100mb of capacity. Any ideas?

As far as I know all nanos(2Gig) have a capacity of 1.8 gb. Ive had two and ive never seen it at 1.9, though im not doubting you . The other storage goes towards all the things apple has stored on the ipod such as the legal policy and games etc. I dont think there is anything you can really do.

*GB iPod Nano Capacity

Have recently purchased a new 8GB iPod Nano and downloaded from iTunes, unfortunately, despite the claims that I should be able to download 2000 songs, I can only download 204, am I doing something wrong ? Please help

What format are the songs you have imported? The advertised song capacity of iPod is based on 4 minute songs encoded in AAC format at a bit rate of 128 kbps. Longer songs and songs encoded at a higher bitrate or in uncompressed formats take up more space. If you have imported full size, uncompressed CD files (AIFF format) then that's why you are getting so few on. Go to iTunes and right click on one of your songs, choose Get Info>Summary and look at "Kind" to see what format you are using: iTunes: About import settings and hard disk space
If you have imported uncompressed files they can be converted in iTunes, have a read of these articles:

Hey saintbless,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines troubleshooting information for iPod nano. While it mostly refers to the 6th generation, most steps apply for your model as well:

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3474
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
- Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
- If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting the device while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button for at least eight seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
- If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
- If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Hi there. My iPod Nano was stolen from my car today. I do know the serial number of this stolen device. Is there any way that Apple can block another user from connecting this stolen device to iTunes?

Hi there. My iPod Nano was stolen from my car today. I do know the serial number of this stolen device. Is there any way that Apple can block another user from connecting this stolen device to iTunes? Also, if another user was to attempt to connect this stolen device to iTunes, would Apple be able to inform of the username of this person in order that I could then pass this information to the police?

Ipod nano - lost photos from ipod classic

I had an ipod classic on my pc and then installed an ipod nano for my daughter. It automatically synched with my library. She now has my songs but cannot import any music(it takes over 1 hour to imort 16 songs -then show durations of over 400 minutes and will not play. In addition I have lost all my photographs. Can anybody over a solution or should I put the lot in the bin? I am desperate - already spent 4 hours at this! Thanks

Pic sync is one way - computer to ipod.
Ipod will sync pics with one computer at a time. If you sync to another, then it will first erase the current content from the ipod, then replace with content from the new computer.

Updating my ipod nano with photos from itune

I have been facing an error ("The ipod cannot be update. the disk could not be read from or written to")when I try to update photos from itunes to the ipod nano.
Although I have been updating music successfully and using the last version of itunes (6) and ipod software it persists with this error.
Do you have any hint to give me ?

Restore the iPod and then see this article for different ways to sync content to your iPod when your iTunes library is larger than what your iPod can hold.

Change account iPod Nano is updating from?

I purchased an iPod Nano for my wife for Christmas and loaded it with songs from my iTunes library on my account on my Mac (OSX 1.4.4). Now I am trying to get the Nano to be updated from my wife's acocunt on the same Mac. I have set up the music, so it is shared. My wife's login opens with iTunes seeing the music and her Nano connects and displays it's contents. When we try to make a change we get a message telling us "Not sufficient permission to update".
What do we do now?

The thing is, that iTunes keeps on library of music with your loging account, and a different library of music with her login account. So even if you share the music, and can play it in iTunes with both accounts, the iPod is linked to her account and can only load music that's in her library. It won't load shared music from your library.
One way to solve this is to make a second copy of the songs she wants, in her library file. That way they can all transfer to her iPod.
You could also keep both iPod linked to your library, and your account, but make different playlists for her iPod and let it sync to those. That would avoid duplication of music between the two accounts. It really depends on how many songs the two of you have in common: few songs in common the different accounts is fine, lots of songs in common then you may want to use playlists from the same account.

Can ipod nano sync calendars from windows office 2002

I have a brand new ipod nano 3rd Generation and I can sync contacts from my windows address book. But I cant sync any calendar info or any to-do lists. It shows that "windows outlook must be installed to sync calendars". I have MS Outlook installed and its Version 2002. Still It Shows The Same Thing!!
P.S. I have ipod nano version 1.1.2 and iTunes version 7.6.2
Please Help??
Thanks in Advance

Put the songs in itunes, then sync them to your ipod.
You cannot sync directly from windows media player. You must use itunes.

Any one had problems with IPOD Nano getting wet from sweating while exercising. It will kill your Ipod so beware.

Ipod nano will stop operating if it gets wet from sweating while exercising. Beware, sweat will kill your nano and apple will not cover it under warranty. So don't let it get wet.

Sweat bands works!

TS1493 files not visible on ipod nano after disconnect from itunes

I have an iPod Nano (6th generation - 16 Gb) which was purchased in early 2011. All of a sudden all files in all categories (music, audiobooks, podcasts, etc) are no longer visible once it is disconnected from iTunes on my laptop. When reconnected to the laptop the files are visible again in iTunes - so they are still on the device. I have searched the Apple online support info and that only seems to provide complicated and unhelpful information about redesigating hard drive network maps etc., which is an action I am not prepared to risk for fear of making a bad problem worse, or contacting my "administrator" - which is me! Can anyone offer any solutions that don't require a PhD in computer science?

Here are a couple of additional pieces of information that might provide a clue:
1) At home, my iPod shows up as having the name I used when I registered it. On the second computer, my iPod shows up with the name DATA1.
2) I have an iPod 4GB mini. At home, that's pretty much the amount of space that shows up in the disk space bar (near the bottom) of iTunes. However, on the second PC, the disk space bar shows 10.35 GB used, 15.66 GB free! Which is just freaky, since it's still a 4GB iPod mini.
3) According to the iTunes display, everything is transferring absolutely smoothly. Since the iPod is configured to transfer music manually, the Do Not Disconnect sign is flashing throughout, but when I'm done and click on the eject iPod button in the lower right hand corner, it turns off, just the way it's supposed to and I can disconnect my iPod. It's just that my songs aren't visible anywhere on my iPod when I try then to play them.

Ipod nano capacity 7.5GB? + Hold Button stuck

Just bought an ipod nano 8GB. Transferred my music library using itunes, then removed, resinstalled, etc. Finally, when I have all songs removed (as shown in itunes), it shows capacity at 7.5GB (rather than 8GB), with some 40 MB used by other files (which I cannot see). Tried factory resetting, etc. Anyone familiar with this issue?

thats normal.. take a look at this

IPod Nano capacity problems...plz HELP

hi guys, i have an ipod nano with a 4GB memory, i only have 400 songs and yet it says my ipod cannot store all because the itunes libarary does not have enough space. however, at the bottom of my itunes, it says (400 songs, 1 day, 1.76 GB) meaning i still have at least 2.5GB of free space!!!
why is this?
someone plz help

Hi
Sorry I just read your question again, and I don't think I've helped!! So just ignore my post!!
In order to fit more songs onto your iPod, change the format of the songs from MPEG to AAC. This makes the file smaller enabling you to put more tunes onto your iPod. To do this hightlight the songs, right click on your mouse and choose 'convert selection to AAC'
I hope this helps!

Ipod nano capacity issue

I still have an ipod nano 4GB. When I connect it to itunes and check out the summary, it tells me that I have 0.01 GBs free and 3.7GBs of "other" content on the ipod. However, I can find no content on it. What can I do aside from throwing it away?

Huh?
