Ipod Nano ends workout in the middle of a run

My nano ends a workout without me pressing any buttons in the middle of a run. Can anyone help???

Make sure your headphones are plugged all the way in, meaning there is no silver still showing from the headphone's plug. You should hear a sort of popping/clicking noise when you have fully seated the headphones. If that isn't the case, make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris.

Ipod nano shuts off in the middle of songs

Received a 6th generation ipod nano for Christmas, and it frequently stops playing in the middle of songs and shuts down. Anyone have any ideas? Battery power is not the issue as it has happened with the battery at nearly full charge, and also with it at less than half charge. I can usually turn it back on again, but sometimes it is more difficult. Headphones are fully plugged in so that is not the issue. Is the device defective?

If you are positive the headphones are plugged ALL the way in, meaning the white part of the headphones are flush with the Nano, also check to make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris.
Otherwise, bring it in for service as it may be a hardware malfunction with the headphone jack.

I found Ipod nano 6th gen on the middle of a road In Finland.

Found ipod nano 6th gen 16gb graphite in the middle of a road. was little banged up from the clip side and probably been there the full 20 or so hours the battery lasts. this was at night between 15th and 16th of may.
The text was cyrillic so most likely in russian. Most of the memory had been used.
Is there anyway I can get hold of the owner? I know nothing about apple stuff and there are not much clues in the nano, nor do I know how to read russian so...
wasted effort anyhows.
I accedently reset the settings when i tried to turn the language to finnish. (which kinda worked though).

Be advised: the Ipod nano has been delivered to police station's lost and found.
If you have lost an Ipod nano 6th in Finland around the time period mentioned above with Russian
language enabled, you should go ask about it from the nearest police station to the place the nano was lost.
happy summers.

New iPod Nano Turns off in the middle of any track playing - Apple Bummer

So, I just received my iPod Nano as a replacement to an early generation of iPod Nano's that are subject to recall. The new Nano has been updated as of 21 Jan 2012. Songs loaded into iTunes under MAC OS X Lion, iPod Nano synched with my computer, and I'm ready to go.
What - not so fast! Guess what? The Nano turns itself off in the middle of any track you play. I turned the shake and shuffle mode off to make sure that is not it. And it is fully charged. I even went through the reset procedures.
So its less than 24 hours new/old so I go for Apple support. My original iTunes etc accounts are associated with my house in America. But I live in the UK right now. So drill through Apple support and guess what? Well, I live in London so no support is available. And the Apple web site as usual does not provide much help in making calls.
Apple's web site says there is no coverage on this as it is out of warranty? 24 hours new? No warranty. It says it comes with a one year warranty. And Apple UPS'd it to me yesterday.
So question 1 is: Does anybody know what the problem is and how to fix it? I hope it isn't operator head space but who knows, maybe it is.
And question 2: Does anybody have a good 800 number for me to call in the USA?
Many thanks.

I have the same problem and wondered if it was loosey goosey headphones which were just cheap 10 dollars buds. So are you saying I should get new ear phones that fit tighter?
That would be my guess....Here is what Apple has to say about the problem.

My guess is that it is a compatibility problem with older or aftermarket ear buds. My daughter has a 6th generation Nano and does not have this problem but keep in mind she is using the ear buds that came with the 6th Generation Nano. With the replacement program they are not sending new ear buds. I just did a test with my daughters 6th Generation Nano using an old set of aftermarket ear buds I had in my desk and I was able to duplicate your issue. I then used the ear buds from my Iphone 4s and did not have an issue with the Nano going to sleep and the music turning off.

My Ipod nano stops playing in the middle of a song.

My brand new never been used ipod nano cant get threw one song without stopping. The screen goes black and the music stops. I have to press the power button to get it to turn back on. But I still have to press play to get the song to come back on. Its brand new why isn't it working?

Thanks for solving this basic problem. I was about to return my nano and make a fool of myself . Once again, thanks a lot planb77.

My Ipod nano ended up in the washer! HELP PLS!

Unfortunately nobody told me, so I tried to turn it on, plug it in, and nothing happens. Is there anything I can do? could it be fixed?

Plugging it in may have been the end of it. You can place it in raw rice (needs to be raw, color doesn't matter) for 4 - 5 days in a cool, dry place.
If it doesn't work make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out-of-warranty replacement.

Whenever I play a certain song on my iPod, it will stop in the middle and skip to the next song in the album

Whenever I play this one song on my iPod nano, it stops in the middle and skips to the next song. It's the same for iTunes. I had looked it up on other forums and other people with the same problem were told that they had to reinstall iTunes or something, not sure I'll really have to do that. Thank you for any advice!

Well, the problem is with iTunes, too. It will still skip on there. Will I have to delete it from there and download it again.

ITunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video. Any thoughts on why not?

iTunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video.
I'm using 2 PCs, each with video files (.MP4) on their respective hard drives, and also one external drive with other video files on that I move between the two devices.
iTunes on one PC will (sometimes!) let me add video content from the external hard drive, which is clearly iTunes-compatible, because I can then copy it over to my iPod Nano. On the other PC, I couldn't load that same video from the external hard drive. But if I copied that same video on to the PC's internal hard drive first, then iTunes would let me import it. That was yesterday - now iTunes is refusing to load any files from the internal or external hard drive(s).
Any thoughts or suggestions, please?

So I tried copying the files from the external hard drive to a USB drive. I could import the video files from the USB drive!
So then I tried importing the same files on to my PC's internal hard drive again. I could import the video files from the internal hard drive!
So then I tried to import the very same files that failed to load on the very same PC previously. I could now import them!
I still can't import from the external hard drive directly, though.
I really don't think I like the process of importing things into iTunes very much... any suggestions on what's causing any of this behaviour would be very interesting.

I can't unlock my ipod nano 4th generation. The screen is still working, I can sync to my computer and I can see when it is charging but it stays in the mode of being locked even after I unlock it at the top.

Ipod nano 7g plays on the dock adapter but there is no sound

Hi, posting on behalf of a parent. Recently bought the ipod nano 7g and bought the lightning 30 pin adaper. When plugged into the stereo the ipod plays as the song timer advances but there is no sound coming through. Any suggestions what to try. I did advise buying a new adapter in case it is faulty.

Check with the manufacturer of the stereo to see if their device is compatible with the adaptor.

Slideshows ends prematurely in the middle of a transition?

I have eight slides in a project so far and for some reason the slideshow ends prematurely in the middle of the transition from the sixth slide. any ideas? TIA jim

Hi larryjo:
You need to highlight the clip by clicking on it, then go to Edit / Split Video Clip. You will see a line where the clip has been split.
Then drag your transition to that split line. It will work then.
Might want to download these for some help...

My iPod Nano is stuck on the Apple logo

My iPod Nano is stuck on the Apple logo. I have reset and restored it multiple times to no avail. When I slide my finger of the scroll wheel I can hear the clicking meaning that it's actually navigating the menus behind that logo, it even plays music. It can enter disk mode and diagnostic mode fine as well. I can't turn it of though, it just get a little darker when the Play button is held. It's a 5G Nano.
What can I do to fix this?

If you have an Apple Store, near you, make an appointment to take it to them. If it's not a hardware failure, they may be able to help.
Regards.

Try here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
or
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
A Nano and iOS devices (iPod touch, iPad, iPhone) use different drivers.

If I trade-in my old iPod nano in-store for the discount, will it apply to something that is already on sale?

I want to trade in my old iPod nano (2nd gen) for the in-store discount, and then buy a new iPod touch. If the Touch is already on sale, will the trade-in discount apply ON TOP of the sale price?

I see no disclaimer on the Apple site that says you can't combine today's sale price with other other discounts. However, you have to ask Apple for sure.
