IPod Nano + iPod Video + iTunes ?

I currently have a 4GB Nano, and want to get the 30GB Video iPod. Is iTunes going to care which one I connect ? I mean, will switching back and forth between the two models cause any problems within iTunes? Thanks!!

No problem at all. You can easily use multiple iPods with iTunes.

My new ipod nano plays videos but there is no sound, why?

My new iPod nano that plays videos has no sound going along with them. It's not a problem with the iPod, (I don't think) because the sound won't play on iTunes either, yet my music in playing just fine both on my ipod nano and in itunes. I dragged and dropped the video into itunes then I converted the video then used the convert selection for ipod. Why is there no sound? Is there something I am doing wrong? My 30gb ipod did worked just fine when I did it that way but my new ipod nano won't. Is there something else I have to do before I can watch and listen to videos?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, iTunes & the iPod (both of which use QuickTime) only show the video and no sound.
iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files

One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

How can I sync my IPOD Nano 4 to iTunes on my PC? I've already tried the sync button on iTunes and it says it is synced. I've also tried the 5 steps recommended by Apple to fix sync problems with no luck.

How is your iPod configured to sync content from your iTunes library? Any error messages during the sync process?
You may want to reset warnings on the device by right->clicking on it under Devices and choosing Reset Warnings. Then resync the iPod to see if any alerts appear.
Is this the same computer you normally sync the Nano with?

Hey
Does it charge when connected, if not you may have broken it..

Ipod nano 4gb use itunes to restore востанавливаю все равно все тоже

ipod nano 4gb use itunes to restore востанавливаю все равно все тоже

restored my ipod and now it works but why does this happen? Is this a hardware problem, if it is, should i return my ipod. Or is this just a software problem that will be fixed in future updates?
I'm not sure why exactly an iPod will say "Use iTunes to restore", but probably just because of a regular internal software problem.
If you're iPod isn't displaying "Use iTunes to restore" anymore, and if it's acting fine, this was simply a isolated incident, which may occur now and then to a few iPods, if they're OS (operating system) gets messed up.
It's similar to if your iPod once apon a time your iPod froze up, then displayed this symbol (it means you need to restore your iPod):
You restored the iPod, and have never gotten that icon or any problems ever since.
Will the need to restore your iPod recurr? It would only be by chance, and not relating to that isolated incident; this is, if you're iPod isn't displaying any failure messages soon after, which indicates a recurring true hard drive problem, not just a temporary one.
If your iPod begins to display "Use iTunes to restore" or other failureful (that's my term for a symbol or behavior that indicates a failure) icons/messages soon after this, you can suspect that your iPod has a true problem with its hard drive/flash drive that a restore didn't fix.
In this case, you would probably send your iPod in to Apple to get it repaired or replaced.
I hope that explanation answers your question.

I am unable to sync my ipod nano to my itunes.

I am unable to sync my ipod nano to my itunes. I have windows 8 and have updated everything on my computer and followed all of the tutorials for syncing. My ipod is recognized and my itunes says "ipod sync is complete" but I dont have any music on my ipod still... Help Please!

You probably need to set up automatic syncing. If you have not set up anything to sync, iTunes will still sync, but sync nothing.
If you "updated everything," you probably have the new iTunes 12. Connect the iPod. Look on the horizontal bar that goes across the iTunes window (near the top), and click the "device button" (it looks like the connected device). This shows the iPod's "management" screen.
In the sidebar (along left side of window), under Settings, click Music. To the right, you see the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod. Check the box for Sync Music, which enables automatic syncing for Music. NOTE: If that was box not checked already, and you manually added songs to the iPod previously, any songs on the iPod now that are not in your iTunes library will be lost.
Below that, if your iTunes music library is small enough to fit on your iPod completely, you can choose the option to sync Entire music library.
Otherwise, choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Below that, select what you want to sync from the lists of playlists, artists, albums, and genres. The "capacity bar" at the bottom of the screen shows you how much space on the iPod you are using. A convenient way to do this is to first create one or more playlists in your iTunes library, and put only the songs you want on the iPod on those playlists. Or you can use existing playlists. Then, on the iPod's Music screen, only select (checkmark) the those playlists, under Playlists.
When you click Apply, iTunes syncs your iPod based on your selection on the iPod's Music screen. Going forward, changes in your iTunes music library sync automatically to the iPod (based on how you set up the iPod's Music screen). If you selected playlists to sync to the iPod, to update songs on the iPod, just update those playlists in your iTunes library (add/remove songs). The iPod does not need to be connected. The next time you connect the iPod (or click Sync if already connected), iTunes updates the iPod with the same changes.

Just purchased the latest ipod nano. Running itunes 11.1.3(8). Why will the music not load? Under devices the 'syn' choice can't be selected and instead only have 'transfer purchases from ipod' What to do?

Help?! my iPod Nano is causing iTunes to crash

Hello,
My iPod Nano is making iTunes crash. Every time I plug the iPod into my USB port, iTunes will crash after a few seconds if it was already running. If I start iTunes with the iPod already plugged in, then iTunes will crash after a few seconds.
Details:
- iPod Nano - 5th generation
- MacBook Pro running 10.5.8
- iTunes: updated to 10.3.1
Troubleshooting already attempted:
- installed latest updates to system software
- installed latest iTunes
- restored iPod using another MacBook
- went through full de-installation of iTunes and reinstalled (followed these instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224?viewlocale=en_US)
- tried multiple USB ports
Other relevant details:
- The iPod connected to iTunes on another MacBook without any issues.
- I was able to load an older iPod Mini into the suspect iTunes without problem.
I'd greatly appreciate if anyone had any insight into this issue. My Apple support has expired on the iPod.
Thank you!

I am having the same problem w my Ipod nano. Could you let me know if you find a solution. I will do the same for you. My email - [email protected] - Im thinking mine may need a new battery bc the light is also dim.

When syncing the ipod nano 4 gen., Itunes shuts down. Drivers are updated, what could be the issue?

You would be better off posting in the iTunes for Windows forum area since your issue is with that rather than an iPod Nano.

The iPod Nano's video limitation is harshing my groove

It's a well established fact that iPod nano doesn't play videos. Fine. However, there are songs on iTunes that come in video format only. Examples the non-live version of "Dakota" by Stereophonics, "You Were The Last High" by the Dandy Warhols. I bought the video versions for both of these because I really like the songs. And I wound up paying 2x the price for these, though I could care less about the video.
Apple needs a solution for playing the audio content of video files on non video iPods. I don't care if it means extracting the audio only for now. I want to be able to play the music I payed for on my iPod.

It probably would not be in Apple's best interest
(from a business/legal standpoint) to make it a
straight forward process (such as a click in iTunes)
to exctract only the adio.
I guess I hadn't thought through the legal rammifications but what I'm asking for seems straight forward (at least to me). Apple is in full control of the iTunes/iPod interface. When you attempt to drag a video to the iPod nano, they could prompt you with a dialog that asks if you want the audio only, and then just download that. They wouldn't have to make the audio content available as a separate file that could be copied illegally.
The other point I hope to make is that I truly beleive this feature would make the iPod nano a better and more versatile product. I thought part of reason for this forum was to suggest improvements, but if this is just a support forum, I may be a little out of line. Oh well

Can 6th gen Ipod Nano play video on Precor Treadmill?

Many gyms offer Apple connectors on their machines like treadmills and elipticals. I've connected my IPad and watched video, but it's impractical on a treadmill, both due to size and too much vibration.
So, I'm considering the purchase of an Ipod Nano. I know that the 6th gen device lacks video support, but can you load video files onto the device via ITunes and then play the videos on the machines at the gym?
Our gym has two main models of treadmills:
Precor 885, and
Matrix 7XE, which also has Nike+ support for Ipods.
Please let me know which Ipod Nano is best for my needs.

The 5th Generation can do video, or the iPod Touch or iPod Classic. The 6th Generation Nano won't work for your needs.

HT201272 How do I sync my ipod Nano with my itunes account

I recently found my old ipod Nano and I want to sync it with my itunes account but I am having trouble.

What problems are you having ? You should be able to sync your content to it by connecting it to your computer and selecting it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (on iTunes11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC) and then using the tabs on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to sync your content to it
Syncing music : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
In terms of the page that you posted from for redownloading content, then what you can redownload with depend upon what country that you are in (not all content types can be redownloaded in all countries), and whether they are still in the store (content providers occasionally remove their items from sale). What you can redownload will show under the Purchased link Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.

Can't connect iPod nano since latest iTunes update. Please help :(

Ever since I downloaded the latest versions of iTunes, my 5th gen iPod nano won't connect. I get a pop-up that says, "Could not install hardware" or something to that affect. I switched cables and usb ports, and no change. What should I do?
I was thinking I want to go back to a previous iTunes version, but I have no idea if you can uninstall a version. I've only ever seen tips on uninstalling the whole thing and reinstalling the same one.
The best "solution" I've gotten was to buy a new iPod, that I was out of luck and the new iTunes versions obviously don't support older iPods, but I don't think that's right. If it is, Apple has lost a customer forever.
If anyone has any tips, I would really appreciate your help.

About one out of every 5 times now my Iphone will sync, the other times it will give one of several errors(see thread above) or it will just stay on the syncing deal forever.
I have not put ANY third party apps on or done anything. Hey Apple, instead of continually putting out updates to turn peoples unlocked phones into bricks, how about addresses some of these syncing issues??
thanks!!
