No you don't. There are only two generations of iPod nano.
Try changing the drive letter of the iPod.

  • HT1363 My old iPod Nano says to use iTunes to restore and I've followed all suggested help steps, but I can't get it into disk mode nor can I get it to show in my computer or in iTunes.

    My old iPod Nano says to use iTunes to restore and I've followed all suggested help steps, but I can't get it into disk mode nor can I get it to show in my computer or in iTunes.  I have the latest version of iTunes.  Windows has all the most recent updates too.  I can reset the iPod, but the message to Use iTunes to restore comes back and I am stuck.

    Already tried another USB port, still nothing.
    I don't have another PC to check, I only have one which is the one not working with my iPod.
    It appears under my Computer, just not under iTunes. Plus, the iPod classic troubleshooting assistant doesn't work because I can't restore since it can't come up onto my iTunes! Even my iPod says "Use iTunes to Restore" once in a while, but I plug it in & I'm not able to restore it since it won't come up under iTunes.
    Please help

  • My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files. I am in the process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files, and replaced my music with my kids music that they have put into the current itunes library. My music is nowhere to be found on my computer, so now  I am in the long, forever process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

    Contact iTunes support and explain your situation to them.  They may let you redownload it at no cost.

    If they don't, I'm afraid you'll have to purchase it again.  Sorry.

  • Ipod Nano says I am "Over Capacity" but is not storing any music

    Ipod Nano says I am "Over Capacity" but is not storing any music. Do you know why i can't get any music on it? I have uninstalled and re-installed itunes as well.

    Look at the colored graph under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes showing you the types of content and how much space it is consuming on the iPod. What seems to be taking up all of the iPod's available space?

    Right click on the iPod Nano icon.  "Eject" should pop up.  At least that is the way it works on Macs.

  • My iPod nano says "4GB" on the back. Which dock adapter do I order?

    My iPod Nano says "4GB" on the back. Which dock adapter do I order, or do I need a "generation" label?

    Thanks, deggie. It's actually my daughter's; she wants to play it through a docking speaker (JBL), and threw away the adapter-pak that came with it. I'll get the model # and post later.

  • If I turn in my 1st generation iPod Nano into the iPod Nano replacement program, what iPod will I get?

    Neither. You will get an 8GB silver 6th Generation Nano.

    Is there some way to copy a playlist from an IPOD nano to the IPOD Touch?  Thanks

    I don't have the playlist in ITunes but found that I could use the copy and paste feature to copy the playlist from one device to the other.  Thanks

  • 2 Ipods nano and 2 Ipods shuffle broken running

    I have 2 Ipods nano and 2 Ipods shuffle and all of them stopped working. These Ipods were bought to running and two of them I bought 3 months ago. What can Apple do to help me? Because I won't buy from you anymore if this keeps happening, its ridiculous. The Ipods are proper for running, they had to have some protection to humidity, I didn't throw water on them. They stopped working on the day after the running. I don't know what to do. Its to delicate. I spent 500 USD because here in Brazil is expensive and it doesn't work anymore!

    by guess a format of C: will work, but is there any other way something got corrupt in XP that prevents the mounting of external media.  iPod, Flash, Ext HD, all fail.  Its the PC or something with the PC.
    Thanks

  • 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.

  • Ipod nano says cannot update playlists due to lack of available space

    Recently after I left my ipod nano charging overnight mysteriously all the songs were removed from it (not on my computer - just the ipod unit). Whenever I try to "Update Administrator iPod" it comes up with the message that it doesn't have enough space. This is despite un-checking all playlists to absolute minimum. Now at the stage that even if no playlists are checked > 95% of disk-space is taken.
    A message does pop up at the bottom RHS of my screen that a "file is corrupt and unreadable - iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB" and suggests I run CHKDSK Utility. I don't know much about chkdsk but did go to the "START" button on my computer and in the "RUN" section typed in "CHKDSK c: /f". It did go through a routine (after I did a computer reboot) - but problem is still there.
    Have you any advice for me?

    Beautiful. Just did a "restore" as suggested and now works fine!

  • Would a brand new ipod nano say it's been formatted

    I just paid for a brand new ipod nano (recycle fee of $75 and traded in my old one) and when I plugged it into  the USB,  it reported back to me that the new nano had already been formatted for macintosh. Doesn't feel like a new ipod?
