7th gen iPod nano nike distance very inaccurate

Three runs until today.
For a track distance of 6.4 km the nano gives a result of 10.2 km (I the calibrated the nano with 6.4 km)
For a track distance of 3.1 km the nano gives a result of 1.58 km (I can not calibrate as it only offes a max. distance of 2.5 km to calibrate to)
For a track distance of 2.4 km the nano gives a result of 1.8 km (I can not calibrate as it only offes a max. distance of approx. 1.9 km to calibrate to)
Will this improve??
P.S. It has the latest OS installed. 1.0.1

Without any kind of calibration whatsoever, my NIKE+ iPod Nano 7g is surprisingly accurate, given the fact that it only counts vertical acceleration impulses interpreted as steps.
On a 10.2km run (measured with MotionX GPS several times), it showed 9.97km. In other words, it underestimated by distance by 2.3%, which I think is OK considering the technology used. I didn't try it on a treadmill yet, but the "real-world" run was mostly on hard surface and in a flat area, using conventional running shoes.
In a hilly region with some trail sections across the woods, sometimes muddy, including jumps over fallen-down trees, it feels less accurate, but unfortunately I don't have GPS data on this specific path, so I cannot verify.
Next, I'll try on a treadmill. So far, however, I'm quite satisfied with the iPod 7G as a workout companion.
After all, I think counting steps might sometimes give even more conclusive results than measuring the actual distance, since it is hard to capture differences in soil and environment accurately, that would influence your energy consumption. On heavy slopes or in difficult terrain you typically make shorter steps, and the distance may be overestimated a bit, but will still give you an indication about the energy needed.

Ipod nano & Nike Polar wearlink (+ also shoe band?)

To monitore while running the heartbeat using my ipod nano, is it enough to buy and connect the Nike Polar wearlink to Ipod Nano (5° and 6° gen.)?
I don't understand if it also needs the shoes band. Before to buy Nike Polar wearlink I'd like to be sure.
Tks very much for your help

Yes, you need the Nike+ kit to connect the Polar Wearlink.
Pay attention buying the Polar Wearlink, there are many different types. Be sure to chose the ones for Nike+.

Need to erase all data from iPod Nano & Nike Receiver Chip

I bought a second hand nano with the nike receiver chip from a guy at school.
The ipod (and chip?) contains workout data that I would like erased because they are not my achievements.
Can this be done?

Conect the iPod to your computer and unsync the music

IPod nano, Nike+ discrepancy between verbal miles and display miles.

I've only used my Nike+ 3 times with my 3G nano. I've attempted to calibrate it, but still the displayed miles are significantly more than what the woman tells me when I push the center button and at the end of the workout. Why should they be different?
Any clues on how to fix?
Currently running 1.0.2 software on the nano. iTunes wants me to update to 1.1, but disconnects my wireless connection every time I try to update. That's probably an issue for another forum.
Thx!

There was a bug in an earlier version of the Nano software that caused the distance to be displayed in kilometers even though miles had been selected. The voice continued to give the distance correctly. You can test this out by dividing the distance displayed by 1.6. If it then agrees with what you're hearing, that's the problem.
Have you tried upgrading with a wired connection?

HT1632 Ipod Nano Nike Plus Workout Tracking

I do not remember creating an account on Nike Plus to track my workouts. I just realized that my ipod can be used as a pedometer, and have completed 3 workouts. The itunes library apparently sent the workout data to nikeplus.com, but I do not know how to retrieve it. Any ideas? Thanks!

You must logged into your Nike+ plus account online to view your previous workout history.

How do I shuffle a playlist during a workout on an ipod nano 7th generation?

How do I shuffle a playlist during a workout on an ipod nano 7th generation? The only shuffle option I see is for all songs, not a specific playlist. I know that I can begin a workout using the now playing option. This will allow me to shuffle a playlist in the begining of my workout, but if I want to change music I cannot get back into shuffle mode unless I select the shuffle all songs option.

This is from the Nike support page:
<http://support-en-us.nikeplus.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/20976/p/3169,3171
Shuffle Songs: Plays songs shuffled randomly from your music library. To shuffle a playlist rather than your entire music library, start the playlist in shuffle mode before setting up your Nike+ workout. Then, when setting up your workout preferences, select "now playing" in the Music menu.

IPod Nano Won't update,says playlists no longer exist,

I am really getting frustrated with my iPod nano. First it started off by not updating songs. Then it started to erase songs when i connected it to itunes. So i erased everything hoping that would fix it. But now when I try to put them back on the computer says iPod update complete but there are no songs. It also say that the iPod can't be updated because the playlists no longer exist.
If anyone knows how to fix this problem please respond as soon as possible.
Thanks

Ok, first try a restore. Next, on the playlist issue...
Did you delete the playlists from iTunes? If so, then the iPod is trying to automatically update, but it can't, since the playlists no longer exist. Try putting your iPod into manually update; you can find that in the iPod Options tab.

IPod Nano error message when syncing to iTunes to update Nike+

I am using an 8 gb iPod nano multi touch with Nike+ and when I connect it to iTunes to update Nike+ to sync my runs it continuously says "The Nike+ website is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." This has been occuring since Nike updated their website. I have updated iTunes and still the error messages occurs. Anyone else have this issue if so is there a solution?

I too cannot sync my iPod. I get the message "Unknown Error 13019." What the heck does this mean? Can anyone assist or provide guidance?

Playlists do not show up on iPod Nano 4th G

I've selected a few playlists to sync to my ipod (nano 4G). The songs sync and show up on the ipod alphabetically by title, artist, album, etc., but there are no itunes playlists listed. Is it not possible to play music "by playlist" the way i could with my previous ipods?

I don't know what had happened and why - but I got this to work by completely deleting the files out of itunes and reimporting from my external hard drive backup and re-creating the playlists.... not the most ideal solution, but it works.

My IPod nano 6 connects to my library but will not receive new music and playlists

My ipod 6th generation will not receive new songs and playlists from my library on my PC. My ipod shows up in the itunes library when I connect it. It syncs when it is plugged in to computer but the sync is very short. I changed to a new computer back in September 2013. My old one crashed. I have synced my ipad 2 and my iPhone 4S to itunes library on the new computer. All these devices show up in the "manage my devices" list except my ipod 6th generation. There is no "add device" to this itunes account, only an option to deauthorize the computer, the iPhone or the ipad.
The ipod downloaded songs that I added to my computer library on my new computer, but will not add new purchased songs nor library playlists.
My computer is shared with my husband. His user account on the same computer shows up in my "manage devices" section of my itunes account. He doesn't use it. I thought I had to add my itunes on his part of the computer because his is the "main user".
I'm not sure what to do. Should I take my computer, iPhone, ipad and nano to an appointment at the Genius Bar at the Apple Store? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

I kept working at this after posting. On the sync page for the ipod on itunes library I chose to remove the iPods association with my old computer. It erased all the old content from the old computer and then put all my checked songs from the new computer on my iPod nano.

I want to create a playlist on an old iPod Nano (I think it's from the second generation), but the computer it was originally linked to via iTunes died years ago. How can I make a playlist out of existing songs on the iPod?

Hello there,
I have an old iPod nano which I think is from the second generation (model number A1199 if that helps) with software at the latest version it can accept, 1.1.3. I wish to make a playlist out of the songs currently on the iPod, but I can't see any easy way to do that from the iPod itself. The next logical thought is to do it through iTunes, but the iTunes that was originally synced to the iPod died several years ago now, so I can't access that to make a playlist through (it's a very old iPod). I do have iTunes currently on this computer, but that's synced with my iPhone and stores different songs which I don't want to be mixed with those from the old iPod (due to the mostly nostalgic nature of the iPod songs). Is there any way I can either create a new playlist from the iPod itself, or through iTunes without having to sync? Also note that most of the songs on the old iPod were uploaded to iTunes from CDs and so aren't connected with any iTunes Login.
Thanks for any help you can give. Also, I sorta need to create this playlist ASAP so any advice you could give would be much appreciated

The old iTunes library was lost with the old PC. However, it all that music and content is still on your iPod there are many ways you can extract this content from the iPod and import it back into iTunes.
Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. It will recognize the iTunes library on the new PC as a new library. If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library. So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your PC first.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

How do I transfer iTunes playlists to my iPod nano 7th generation

I just received a new iPod nano 7th generation and want to transfer my playlists in iTunes to the nano. I have been unable to find instructions for this in the manual or online. Can you help???

Select it in the iTunes sidebar, click on its name, and type a new name. If you're using iTunes 11, choose to show the sidebar from the View menu.

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

If I go from 'Devices' to Summary and then Music, I only get one option-Sync Music,There is a box on this page but the options within it are grayed out. If I tick the Sync Music option I get this message-
'Are you sure you want to remove existing music,films,ect, from this ipod and sync with this itunes library?
'Music synced to (my ipods name) from other itunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this itunes library' I have only ever used itunes on this PC and the 'Manually manage music and videos' is ticked but
that must be a default setting as I haven't ticked it.
