IPod nano files issue

I have had an iPod nano for a couple of weeks and have been enjoying it for a couple of weeks. However, recently for no apparent reason some of the files I had previously loaded and had been listening to stopped playing--they are skipped. Of the 158 songs loaded about 20 or 30 have stopped playing this way. Should I reload all my songs again? Does anyone out there know if there are any problems with the nano storage technology?
Thanks

Hello i3,
One solution that may work would be to "Reset" your nano:

If that doesn't work, try deleting those songs on your nano that are skipping, and re-install from iTunes.

IPod nano 7G issues with shuffle function

Dear all,
I just bought a 7G iPod nano. Altogether it's great but I have a couple of issues I would like to comment with you:
1. I sometimes use the "shake to shuffle" function, but when I go and turn it OFF, the shuffle function still remains (although not in the "shake" mode), and I must turn it off manually by tapping on the screen while a song is playing, and de-selecting it. Does this happen to you?
2. When I pair the iPod nano 7G to my car through bluetooth, after listening to any album up until the end, it then suddenly pauses, then starts playing again but in a shuffle mode, without me having done or touched anything. So after the end of any album, it just turns on the shuffle mode automatically. My car stereo system is a 2012 Mercedes Benz Audio 20 system, which has both A2DP and AVRCP profiles. Has anyone experienced something similar?
It's sounded like fun to listen to the iPod wirelessly in the car, but I must say that the bluetooth functionalities are so limited (play, stop, next track, last track) that it quicly becomes quite boring. I wish it had all the browsing controls like when you plug it in...Any comments?
Thanks a lot in advance for you help with these issues,

im having the same problem. I drive a 203 c class with audio 20 and for some reason the media interface wont sync with my ipod. The bluetooth works fine but when i try to plug it via the media interface cables, it only charges....

IPod Nano 7G - Issue controlling music through Bluetooth

I recently bought a 7th gen iPod Nano for running, but I'm also using for music in my car through Bluetooth.
I have a problem where if I'm listening to music with shuffle on and I skip the track using the cars skip buttons shuffle is turned off and the iPod starts going through the album/playlist sequentially. I previously had my iPhone connected instead and didn't have this problem at all, so it can't be the car sending the wrong signals...
Anybody experience similar issues?

Ipod nano file system

itunes and ipod updater won't recognize my ipod. I just saw something interesting though. In the computer management screen, the file system of the nano shows up as FAT32. This would not make me worry normally, but i have a 256 mb flash drive and that shows up as simply FAT under file system, i was wondering, will i need to change the format of my ipod nano to FAT? I was able to get songs on it orginally on a friend's computer, but didn't check any of that information, nor have i been on it since my problems started. can somebody please help, thanks

Ipod Nano - Bluetooth issue

my ipod nano 7th generation won't recognise any bluetooth devices.
I'm particulary trying to connect to my car radio, but as it doesn't seem to find any other bluetooth devices we have not sure if it's an issue with the Ipod?

Not all bluetooth devices will be discovered by ipod nano. To be able to do this, it must have A2DP BT profile. But it can still connect to other devices like jambox (which I am using now), etc. Cheers!

7th Generation iPod Nano connection issue

My Dell Inspiron N7110 does not recognize my brand new 7th generation iPod Nano even when I use a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port.

Gee...I'm answering my own posts. But...this is the deal. Apparently, my iPOD Nano froze...and one thing I did not do was reset it. I did that, and by IPOD was suddenly recognized by my computer....and is now happily charging, etc. So, case solved.

Ipod Nano Connection Issues

I am having trouble getting my ipod to connect with my PC.
It has worked previously, as i have transfered 3gb of songs to my Ipod Nano so far.
However now when i try to connect my Ipod to my computer, i plug it in, and nothing happens. I can play with my ipod, there is no "Do not Disconnect" symbol appearing.
However, if i actually bend down the plastic part of the connector side to my ipod, so that it is kind of a 10° angle to my ipod (thus bending the connection isnide my ipod i guess) it reconises it.. Do Not Disconnect appears and it appears on itunes.
However i dont want to be constantly bending the connector down so that i can transfer songs, beacuse not only is it inconvenient, but it can't be good for my ipod.
I have no idea why its doing this, I have reset my ipod, re-installed, updated ipod software, tried different ports, i also tried my mates ipod lead to see if it was mine that was faulty. this didnt help, same problem.
I understand i can send it in for a service, but wasn't sure if this would come under servicable conditions?
Would appreciate some help that doesn't require sending my ipod away, but if there is no other choice, then i guess ill have to.
Thanks in advance

Hey quick question what exactly did you bend to make your ipod sync because im going nuts. I know this question is old but if u solved yuor problem let me know. Contact me at:[email protected]

4th Gen Ipod Nano compatibility issues`

I purchased a 4th Gen 16gb ipod nano. When I connected it to my car's Sony car stereo I got the "can't charge" error message that has been discussed previously on these pages. It will also not work on my wife's Chrysler Town & Country. Several solutions to the charging problem have been given, including getting "Passport" from Scosche (sp). However, when I called their help desk they stated their product will solve the charging problems, but if my nano was not recognized by my stereo and then work, that their product would not solve this problem. Neither the Sony or the Chrysler stereo would recognize the nano after giving me the charging error. Is their any software that can be downloaded into the nano that would make it work with these car stereo systems?
Thanks for any advice or help.

If everybody with this problem were to return the 4th generation nano, the problem would be solved by Apple in short order. Instead reponses along the line of "you shouldn't expect old equipment to work with a new generation Apple product" are offered thereby enabling Apple in ignoring its customers.

Ipod Nano Sync Issue

CAn you get Ipod Touch Apps to run on an an Ipod Nano?

No the can't. Applications for the iPod Touch are made specifically for the iPod Touch as the frameworks are made for "touching", not for "scrolling" with.

Ipod nano memory issue?

I have an ipod nano 4gb. The capacity is listed as 3.7 gb which I understand, but it says only 3 gb is available. Even when everything is erased, it still says that. I can load up to 3gb of songs, and then no more. Also, whether I load on 25 songs or 250 songs,it still says 3.0 gb available. Can anyone tell me what's going on?

Sorry, one more thing... I can only load on about 2.4 gb of songs, or about 520 or so. So I can't even load on the 3 gb that it says is available.

RE: Help needed w/ iPod Nano game issues

I have an 8GB 4th generation iPod nano, I've downloaded a game for it and cannot sync it to my iPod. The game shows up in my itunes library in the applications tab, but not were the games tab is. I also don't have a games tab under my iPod in the devices tab. I've tried to drag and drop,but to no avail,as well as manual and auto synchronizing. If anybody could help with this I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thnx R1PP3rJack

what game is it?
some games aren't for the nano... just to make sure you downloaded one that's compatible, what's it called?

IPod nano battery issue

I bought my iPod nano the second day it was out and 3 weeks later had a problem with it, Apple took it and declared nothing was wrong with it so sent it back.
Now before I sent it to them I got roughly 13+ hours out of it, but I have just got it back and I'm stretching to even get 7, I'm not happy with this, now I'm not saying it's thier fault but I want to know what I am entitled to here...if anyone knows that is.
And do you think it would be possible for me to give them my old on back so I can get the new one if I paid the extra...the new iPod that is.
Thanks guys.

I had the same problem with my FIRST nano. I have gone through 3(see my topic: iPod nano is a joke). The best thing I can tell you is to return it for the exact same thing just tell the salesperson you want one from the newest shipment as to not get one from the same batch.
Hope I Helped, Jake

IPod Nano Sound issue

I just purchased an iPod Nano 7th Generation. I put the earplugs in and I am not getting any sound at all. I turned the volumn up all the way and it's dead silence. I don't know what to do.

Have you tried another set of earbuds to rule out the possibility that something is wrong with your current headset? Do these same songs sound okay on another iPod?
Have you done any of the 5 R's of troubleshooting yet to rule out the possibility of a software glitch/errror?
I assume you haven't enabled any EQ settings?

Ipod nano recharge issue

Hi,
I have a ipod nano 8gb. I had connected to the laptop for charging left the laptop unnoticed for few hours. However when I saw the laptop was in sleep and the ipod's battery was drained completely. Now when I tried to recharge by reconnecting back to the laptop, nothing is happening to the ipod (ipod is not responding). I want to know how to recharge my ipod nano and get it back in working condition.
Thanks
