Ipod Nano- only shows summary page in Library
I hooked up my new Ipod Nano last night to my PC and i did the software download and now I only have the "restore software page" the rest of the library shows up but not the music listing of the Ipod. Plus the new music that I purchase from the Itunes store -I can't transfer over to the Ipod, it just went to the library. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME.

Hi Chris,
I did all the configuration. And the it transferred all the songs that were already on my computer to the Ipod, but you know how you get a listing of songs in ipod (it comes on under what you name your ipod) then there are other categories such as "on-the-go"
anyway when i click on the named Ipod part the only thing that comes on is the summary page which has tabs like Music, photos, contacts. There is just no option to get out of it.
this is my second IPod nano and the first one I bought from Best buy and it came with a disc and this one I bought from Apple online adn there was no disc, I just downloaded itunes from online.

my new ipod nano only shows "pedometer" and "history" on the fitness screen. How do i find the run icon so i can measure distance when i work out?
Try to hook up your nano to your computer and choose the dialog box to update your software. The current version is 1.2 which allows distance to be calculated once you input your height (and weight).

I downloaded a WMA audiobook from library using Overdrive. It shows up on my Itunes listing of Audiobooks on my Ipod, but on the actual Ipod it only shows up on Playlists. It is marked as an audiobook in Options | Media Kind. It is also marked to Remeber Position, but it does not do that. How do I get it to show up under Audiobooks and remember the position? I have a 4th Gen Ipod running Ios5
Check out the instructions for a work around on this post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18702732#18702732
This worked for me. I would like to see Apple fix this issue, as it isn't very fun to have to do this for every downloaded book. -
My IPod Nano is synched to my ITunes library and shows up under Devices, but when I click on the Device name, all of the music is "grayed out" and I can't click on anything.
In order for this content to not appear grayed out, you need to enable the Manually manage music option from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes. Keep in minding that manually managing your iPod's contents is different from having content automatically sync to your device from iTunes. See here for more information.

Ipod nano does not sync with itunes library, ipod nano does not sync with itunes library
bought an ipod nano, upgraded Itunes to version 11 running on Windows 8.
My nano is set up with a different apple ID than my main account, but it won't sync with my Itunes Library, When I plug it in via USB, the IPOD nano icon shows up in Itunes, but when I do File>Devices>Sync, the Snyc is grayed out.
does the differenct apple ID on the nano have anything to do with the fact that it is different from my Itunes Apple ID, is that causing a problem? Most of the music in my library is uploads from CDs I had already owned, not Itunes purchases.
Solutions?Automatic syncing is set up on the iPod's Music tab in iTunes, which is where you tell iTunes how to sync your iPod.
Select the iPod in iTunes. There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary). Click on Music there.
To use automatic syncing, the checkbox for Sync Music is checked. Below that, you can choose to sync Entire music library, if it fits on iPod. Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.
With the latter choice, you can create a selection of songs to sync to the iPod by selecting (checkmarking) playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres on the Music tab. For example (if you want to keep it simple), you can create a new playlist in iTunes and add all songs you want on the iPod to that playlist. Back on the Music tab, checkmark that playlist. There are many ways to set it up...
When you Apply the change, your selection of songs syncs to the iPod (replacing its existing content). Going forward, any changes in the iTunes Music library that are related to your selection of songs on the Music tab sync automatically to the iPod when you connect it, or when you click Sync.
Therefore, if you create that playlist with songs you want on the iPod, and select it on the iPod's Music tab, you can simply update that playlist in iTunes (add and remove songs) whenever you want, and those changes sync to the iPod automatically at the next opportunity. -
IPad only shows 11 pages of Apps!! Help!!
I have over 350 apps (half of those from iphone/ipod touch). After successfully syncing them, my iPad only shows 11 pages of apps. There is supposed to be 17. Is anyone else experiencing this with such a capacity of apps
"You can create up to 11 screens." Page 11 of the iPad User Guide
If you have a lot of applications, you can use Spotlight Search to locate and open them. -

As you connect your ipod to iTunes, an option in the upper right of the screen will appear. When you click this, it will show the different menu for your ipod.

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?
The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device. Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up. It keeps syncing to the old library...

Ipod nano only working in hold position
recently my friends ipod nano only turns on when it is in the hold position but will not turn on when it's not on hold. It is also only recognized in itunes when it is in hold position. it's basically something I just store music on right now. Is there a way for me to fix this?
I don't know if this'll work, but it's worth a shot. Try putting it hold, than taking it off of hold, without TOUCHING ANY PART OF THE CLICK WHEEL. This might work. If it doesn't, click "restore" when it is plugged in to your computer.

My ipod will only show the dead battery screen and wont taking a charge.
my ipod will only show the dead battery screen and wont taking a charge on any of my sinc cords or my outlet charger. And I have checked that nothing is in the plug port blocking the electrodes. What do I do now?
Put the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore via iTunes.

My Ipod Nano 6g shows a sad/dead face
My Ipod Nano 6g shows a sad/dead face when i try to turn it on, can i do something about that or is it just dead?
Sounds like it's flash storage is dying. In that case, see this Apple support document.
