Ipod nano, my new radio connector wont work ;0
I have a 1st gen. ipod nano. i just bought one of those ipod radio connectors that plugs into the dock connector of the ipod and is wired to a little control pad then headphones are pluged into that. My problem is when i plug it in it doesnt show up a spot to click RADIO on the main screen. I took my moms ipod nano 1st and plugged it in and it came up with the spot to click on radio and works fine. Does anyone know how to get it to work with MY ipod?
I tryed:
unplugging and blowing out the connectors
restarting my ipod
and yet it still doesnt show up.
just like to add that i am not talking about a transmitter it acctually plays radio threw the ipod headphones
and the it is APPLE brand so i dont understand why it wont work with my ipod at all.
anyone that can help is greatly appreciated
thanks alot

First of all, are you up to date with iPod software?
On your iPod look under settings/about, and it should read 1.3 for the latest.
Then, when you connect the radio go to settings/main menu and turn radio to 'on'. The radio option will only appear in the menu when you have it connected.
Now does it work ok?

Newer cable connector wont work
My problem is where the usb cable connects into the ipod itself. It is like the little plug in things where the largest end of the cord plugs in,,,,, doesnt fit right. I have tried other usb cords, not made by apple, and they wont read it either or let it charge or do anything. Could the internal connectors be screwed up?

My iPod Nano, 4th gerenration buttons won't work anymore, but I can still shake iPod to get song to shuffle... any help?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
iOS: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Ipod nano 7th generation touch screen doesnt work
Ipod nano 7th gen touch screen wont respond only 6weeks old?
Have you reset it? Hold down the power and home buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.

my ipod nano 7th generation....works fine as long as it's on the docking station. when off the station, the display goes dark after a few seconds. it's fully charged. please help. this is the heartbeat of my business. thanks
In the worst case, it's still under warranty (all 7th gen nanos are still under one year from purchase).
So, you disconnect it from power, and it almost immediately goes dead? You can try a Restore... but it doesn't sound like the type of problem a Restore will fix.
You should probably have it looked by Apple Tech Support. If there's an Apple Store nearby, you can take it to the store's Genius Bar. To avoid waiting, you can make a reservation at the store's web page

I didn't receive my return box from Apple for the iPod Nano replacement as promised within 2 working days, did anyone else?
UPDATE. Just spoke with an AppleCare representative, Apple has been inundated with requests for these iPod Nano replacements. They have fallen behind with sending out the return boxes in the 2 days they promised. I was told to wait an additional 2 days. She also said they were very surprised so many people still have their 1st generation nanos...
We have been an Apple family for years and trust they will do the right thing, they have always surprised us with their professional customer service and expect this situation to be the same. -
My iPod Mini 3rd Generation isn't recognized in My Computer or iTunes. I can't even restore it without iTunes. The same thing happened with my iPod Nano 3rd Generation, but that one worked for a while, and suddenly went unrecognized.

HT1209 how to transfer music from old iPod nano to new iPod touch
how to transfer music from old iPod nano to new iPod touch ?
The 1st and 2nd gen iPod shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library (not "account") at a time. Your Apple ID and password does not matter. (Later shuffles can be used with more than one iTunes library, IF it is set to use the Manually manage music option.)
So, if you sync it with a different iTunes library, the previous content will be replaced. You need to offload the existing content to your new computer's drive as the first step.
You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to the iTunes library. After confirming all of your songs are there, sync your shuffle with that iTunes library. -

1 iPod Touch, 1 iPod Nano (Brand New) & 2 iPod Classics Not Reconized
Hi,
I have 1 iPod Touch, 2 iPod Classic & 1 iPod Nano (brand new one)
Since the iTunes V9 update none of them will show up in Windows or iTunes.
I have tryed the 5 R's, wiping everything off the computer and reinstalling it, reinstalling iTunes and more!
Still nothing
Have any of you had the same problem and managed to solve it ??
Thanks in advanceSorry, I followed both guides and uninstalled everything - rebooted, reinstalled iTunes like your second link instructions said.
PC sees all devices fine in Windows Explorer (and makes the pling sound when I connect them, they just do not show up in iTunes.
(ipod nano, ipod touch 32GB, iphone 1st gen, ipad 1st gen)
Manually starting or restarting all itunes/ipod related services doesn't do a thing either, nothing will sync.
I'm at a loss. -
Help connecting new iPod Nano to iHome radio
I got an iHome radio with a iPod Nano recharge station (and Nano played through radio's speakers). When I lost that, I got a new Nano, but the belt clip means I cannot push down so that the Nano's insie port connects with the iHome's outsie port. Is there some sort of cable or connector available so I can still play the Nano and also recharge it on my iHome? iHome is model iH10B
Well, to use it, I guess I'll need to purchase snow leopard, is that correct?
It depends upon what computer model you have. If you have a G series computer such as G4 or G5 you cannot run anything higher than Leopard, and may not even be able to run that if it is a really old G4 or lower. If you have an older Intel model you may not be able to run anything higher than Snow Leopard. You might possibly be able to run Lion. To get more information about your computer, go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number.
