Ipod nano - few questions - 8gb

I have just bought a new black ipod chromatic 8gb, and just have a few questions.
1. I have one dead pixel in around the middle of the screen, can this be fixed easily??
2. Why doesn't the new nano have music quiz? and is there another way to get it?
3. Is it going to work with wall charger if i decide to get one?
4. how long is the battery meant to last, because different places say different things, is it 24 hours (audio) or 12 hours (audio)?
Thanks

The pixel is dead forever so if you're still in your 30 day grace period, take it back for an exchange.
The music quiz is no longer available, unless you can find it pirated somewhere.
Most European countries, if not all of them have a different shaped wall plug from the US, so no, if you buy a regular charger here, it will not work without an adapter in Italy.
There are multiple universal chargers online and I even found one on the apple internet store, but I have not found one that is compatible with the nano chromatic.
I think your best bet would be to buy the new apple usb wall charger that just came out and buy an adapter for it either here, or in Italy, because odds are there won't be a universal charger compatible with the chromatic released before November.
Heres a pic of a standard Italian wall plug you would find in a kitchen, just for interest's sake (just copy and paste it cuz i cant remember how to make a link)

HT1339 I have an IPOD Nano 4th Generation 8GB and need to restore to factory settings as want to sell it; however it will not reset and when plugged into my MAC it says firmware corrupt? CAn anyone shed light on what i can do to overcome this issue?

I have an IPOD Nano 4th Generation 8GB and am unable to restore it back to factory settings even when it is connected to my MAC. I have tried the menu/select hold but is not doing anything. When connected to the MAC and select restore in itunes it comes up with 'Firmware Corrupt'. It also states the IPOD is up to date. I have the latest operating system on my MAC and wonder if this may be part of the issue?
Can anyone shed light as to what i can do to reset it back to factory settings as would like to sell it and ensure it is ready for the new owner.
Thanks

My iPod nano is an 8GB, can it copy a music video which I purchased on itunes?

If it's a third through fifth generation iPod nano, yes. Otherwise, no.

Is there ever going to be a bigger iPod nano, bigger than 8GB?

Hi
No one knows that answer at all. There are no apple employees that read or answer these posts only volunteers (regular consumers). But you cna say this never say never. And specualtiona on future products etc are prohibited here. So simply no no one knows here nor can speculation be made about it.

Why's my iPod Nano, 5th Generation, 8GB not showing the right album covers?

Today, this morning, my iPod was fine. I added 2 new songs today and now it's gone all weird. If I go into my albums in a list all the covers are fine and dandy, no issue. But if I go into the side-scrolling menu everything's jumbled. I've got Britney Spears album 'In The Zone' on my iPod and that album cover, or a distorted version of it, now seems to have invaded way over half of my iPod! I don't understand why or how to fix it. I deleted the 2 songs I added today thinking they might somehow be jumbling it up but they're not. Everything else on iTunes seems to be fine. Please help!

*I have restarted* it about a hundred times. I've tried re-uploading the old album artwork to a few of the affected albums and that makes no difference either it still stays distorted Britney instead. It's so frustrating I took hours getting all the right album covers and now it's all messed up
Restarted your computer? Have you tried _resetting the iPod Nano?_

Delete those 2 songs from the iPod. If your artwork returns to normal, then those 2 songs somehow corrupted your iPod artwork. Download the 2 songs from somewhere else & re-enter into your iPod.

Simple Ipod Nano Music Question

Ok on my nano I have probably 20 cd's loaded on there and they are all nicely organized in the "Albums" Folder on the Ipod.
My question is I have a CD that my brother made for me with all different songs on it and different music groups.
I want to put it on the Nano, How would I do this because I do not want these songs appearing in the "Album" section of the Nano, because these are obvilusly not full albums by one Artist.
Any suggestions or help?

Being its a "Personally created" CD it should show up blank in iTunes. Everything will be blank except the "Name" field, there you will see "Track 1" "Track 2" "Track23" ect ect.
You will have to manually type in the name of each track before importing it

IPod nano 1G questions,

Hello!
While tidying my bedroom I've come across one of my family members old iPod nano 1G, after asking why it was in my room I remembered that when he had it the iPod overheated and the Display cracked. He never used it after this as he didn't know what was wrong. Now when plugging it in there is a low pitched buzzing noise and it doesn't work...
Would I be able to send the iPod to Apple under the Recall as it overheated and broke a while ago. I just thought I would ask here before sending it.
Thankyou,
Jack :)

Yes, it qualifies.

IPod Nano 3rd gen 8GB does not show music library, can't restore in osx.3.9

I have two problems: Although, I can see mu iPod's music library when I plug in it into my ancient laptop (iBook G4 10.3.9), the library doesn't display on the iPod once it's disconnected, meaning I can't play any songs on the iPod proper). I've done everything that the Apple website recommends for troubleshooting my Nani 3rd generation, including attempting to reset it repeatedly. I've now saved the songs elsewhere, and I'm prepared to restore it, but I can't seem to find a way to reset it in iTunes 4 (apparently the latest version of iTunes that will work on this computer). Am I missing something? What should I do? Any help would be much appreciated.
Best,
Diane

Hey there,
If your iPod is a 3rd generation nano, it will not work with anything below 10.4 as outlined in this Apple support document. That could be the underlying problem. Hope this helped.

The amount of songs you can fit on any iPod will be determined by how they are encoded.
Apples estimates for song quantity are based on tracks being 128kbps AAC files of about 4 minutes each.
Using that estimate, a 2GB Nano will hold about 500 tracks, and a 4GB Nano will hold about 1000 tracks.
If your tracks are encoded at a higher bitrate, use a lossless encoding method, or are generally longer than 4 minutes each... you won't fit quite as many tracks as Apples estimate.

ITunes Match and iPod Nano Syncing Question

I recently subscribed to iTunes Match. My son and husband still have iPod Nanos. How do you sync the nano with the iTunes match?

I subscribed to Match because the USB ports in the laptop where my iTunes playlists resides are toast - do not work. I could not sync my iPod to it. So I thought if I subscribed to Match, I would be able to access my playlists with my other laptop. I have iTunes installed on my other laptop and the USB ports work! I also authorized my other laptop for the account.
So I thought "great - I'll access my original playlists with my second laptop and connect my iPod Nano and sync it to the second laptop and it will load my playlists on my Nano".
Nope - I get nothing. I have it set up to sync automatically - didn't work. I tried to sync manually - it acts like it's syncing, tells me it's done and there is nothing on my Nano. Help?!

Ipod nano restore question

how long does it take to restore settings in my ipod nano?

If your computer doesn't have a low amount of RAM, restoring normally takes up to about 4-5 minutes. Remember, if you have multiple windows or programs running at the bottom bar of your screen, this will slow up the speed of the process. Overall, it's a pretty quick process.

IPod Nano Accesories question

Does anyone know if Apple makes little plastic screen covers for the ipod nano? I don't want to take off the packaging completely until I have another cover to protect it with. Thanks for any help.

I don't think Apple do (maybe I'm wrong) but many other people do. Most shops that sell Nano's sell those too.
Shops that sell handheld pc's, palms and other screen devices often also sell screen protectors for those devices that you can cut to size for your Nano.

IPod Nano Warrenty Question.

I bought a 4 gb iPod nano about a month ago and the screen does not work anymore. There is a very minor dent on the side of the nano, but it was working fine for the 2 weeks until today. Does the warrenty cover for it to be replaced for a new one? The dent was caused by dropping it. Thanks for all comments in advance!

No, the warranty would most likely not cover this.
You are not covered for damage due to dropping. Apple will most likelt see the dent, assume it was dropped, and conclude that is the reason the screen is broken. (Which it probably is.)
Couldn't hurt to take it to an Apple store and ask them about it, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Ipod nano 4th generation, 8gb dead?

Hi, First of all, of course my problem is that I can't turn on or even charge my ipod nano 4th gen. I did everything that people said to do: Press and hold the menu button, and the round button in the center, toggle the switch, and plug it in to my computer..but none of them work. Should I contact Apple by email? Should I go to the nearest Apple store? Is there anything else I can do to try get it back or is it gone forever? ... Thanks.
