IPod nano manual says one must have iTunes 12.1.1 installed. I have a Mac... Is there a version 12.1.1?

I am learning about my new iPod nano 7th generation and it says in the online manual that one needs version 12.1.1 of iTunes in order for the nano to work!?!? I just updated my version of iTunes on my iMac to version 11.4. My computer says I have the latest version. So what is 12.1.1 all about? I am totally baffled and frustrated...as usual!! Can someone please clear this up for me? I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

Yes, unless a problem occurs.

I have an ipod nano and use one click digital to download books from my library. My nano says I have 2449 songs which is 65 books. I have deleted all my playlists after I listen to the audiobook.

I have an ipod nano and use one click digital to download books from my library. My nano says I have 2449 songs which is about 65 books. I have deleted all my playlists after I listen to the audiobook. Now I get a message saying I don't have enough room on my nano to transfer new books to it. My nano is 16 GB and my operating system is Windows 7.

iTunes and Apple's devices work as an ecosystem. iTunes is designed to sync with Apple's products, not anyone else's. You'll need your songs in a format compatable with the Samsung phone and to use the software transfer program supplied/recommended. It is essentially not an Apple/iTunes problem. You may have better luck finding the information you need on Samsung's forums.

Does iTunes allow multiple devices (iPod nano) to share one account?

Does iTunes allow multiple devices (iPod nano) to share one account?

Yes, Apple are keen for you to buy as many of their devices as your pocket will support.
The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways for managing the media content. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's five iDevices using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their device. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed and need rebuilding. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

My new ipod nano is not recognized by my itunes and I have tried the trouble shooting tips

my new ipod nano is not recognized by my itunes and I have tried the trouble shooting tips

This came from another thread, but worked for me. Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62 and Windows 8.1. Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update). Reboot, and reinstall iTunes. It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano. Good luck.

TS1456 My 4th Gen iPod Nano isn't displaying a "Use iTunes to restore" message, but iTunes is displaying a restore message when I connect it. I have original music that I can't back up on my iPod. Is there any way that I can fix the iPod without restoring

It's not designed to work like this. When you sync, the iPod stores some information that basically says 'this iPod belongs to computer xyz'. Apple did this to prevent copyright issues (syncing someone else's music).
If you really want to do this, you'll have to at least tie both iTunes installations to the same account. Maybe have them sync with each other.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i have purchased an iphone 4s and synced it with itunes.

My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i purchased an iphone 4s and synced the phone with itunes. When I plug my ipod into my imac, it does not even read or recognize my ipod. What do i do?

Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable? Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?

I have iTunes on my iPad. I have a new iPod nano. How do I connect iPod to iPad to download iTunes and music library?

I have iTunes on my iPad. I have a new iPod nano. How do I connect iPod to iPad to download iTunes and music library?

Hi Divine Inspiration,
You wouldn't connect the iPod to the iPad for data transfers. Music is stored and shared either through a computer or iCloud.
This article gives an overview of moving music and data off the iPad.
iTunes: Transferring media from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1209
and this article explains syncing to the iPod.

Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.

I still have my iPod Nano 3rd generation, but my old computer crashed and I did not have itunes backed up, so I lost my library. Is there a way to get the songs from my old ipod to new computer library and then on to the new ipod?

Save all the photos from your Droid into a folder on your computer.
Connect your device to your computer. On iTunes left Pane, select iPhone under 'Devices'; then on the right Pane, select PHOTO tab. Make sure Sync Photo box is checked, and "from" box selected the folder that has Droid's photos. Then click the SYNC or APPLY button on the lower right window.

When i try and sync my IPOD Nano it says 'some of the items in the itunes library were not copied because they could not be found'. Unfortunately this is pretty much all my library! Help!

This means iTunes can no longer locate the file in the location specified via the Get Info window for each individual track. See the article for assistance.

HT1386 160 gb iPod Classic says it must use iTunes 9 or later. 120 gb iPod Classic (wifes) is on 8.0 and doing fine. If I install iTunes 9, will both iPods be o.k.? Will any music be lost? THANKS

You can either burn it to a CD or DVD from within iTunes, or back up the entire iTunes library as you would any other folder.

IPod nano (4th gen) not recognized by iTunes 11.1.3

I have an iPod nano (4th gen). After upgarding iTunes to v 11.1.3 (MacBook Pro) I get the follwoing message:
iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod.
Unfortunately, I restored to factory settings, which erased everything, but each time I connect the iPod I get the same message.
It must be an issue with compatibility because I get the same message with my wife's iPod (same gen), but hers syncs just fine on her iTunes (v 10), and I get the same message using two different USB cables.
So now my iPod is essentially empty (factory settings) and as good as a paperweight unless there is a way to get iTunes to recognize and sync. If I could get past the error message, I suspect it would be easy to sync automatically or manually.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi JMfromMN,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. If your iPod isn't recognized by your computer, this article may help:
iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369
Since your wife's iPod displays the same behavior omn your computer, it sounds like the troubleshooting for the iPod itself (which you've largely already done anyway) can be skipped.
Cheers,

Ipod nano won't sync podcasts from iTunes after I "Restored" the ipod.

iPod nano won't sync podcasts from iTunes after I "Restored" the iPod.

If you've read the Technical Specification you will find that the nano can only use Firewire for charging, not for syncing:
http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/specs.html
"Charging via USB or FireWire to computer system or power adapter (sold separately)"
So you can rule that out.
Have you tried the 5 R's?

IPod nano on Desktop but not in iTunes

My iPod Nano (the new one, short and stubby, just released) shows up on my desktop with 'Calendars,' 'Contacts,' and 'Notes' intact but it doesn't show up in my iTunes. Both the nano and the iTunes are new, plus I just upgraded to Tiger (yes, I know).
I reset the **** thing about nine times. That doesn't solve the problem. Any suggestions?

Solved! Another post on another thread mentioned that they closed eyeTunes and turned it back on. This did the trick for me, too. Thanks.
