Ipod nano screen blank, shows in itunes and reset but wont reboot

I have done everything to get my ipod nano 2 gen to reboot, I did a factory restore and it shows fine in itunes, however it remains black and doesn't respond to any of the rebooting suggestions. what could be the problem? it has been charging for some time so dont think its the battery, also shows up ok in finder.

I have the same problem with my iPod nano. Have you discovered anything new about this ? Tks. Eduardo

  • Ipod Nano icon not showing in  itunes and I've tried everything suggested

    My ipod nano is not showing in itunes and I've tried everything that has been suggested by Apple.  I updated iTunes, I've reset the ipod.  I just want to download my songs!  Help! Please and Thank you.

    Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

  • New iPod nano doesn't show on iTunes and I'm tired of it.

    Since Feb. 24, I've tried and tried to put music on my new iPod nano with no success, and I am extremely sick of it. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I know for some reason the ipod service doesn't show up and now I cannot connect my older iPod to iTunes. When i try to repair it, it says the service can't be stopped. My mom spent $200 on this iPod and I'm getting in trouble for not being able to put music on it. I've spent hours uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and trying to stop the stupid service and I cannot take it anymore. I've always had issues with iTunes and put up with it but this is ridiculous. The ipod shows on the computer but obviously doesn't work on iTunes. Can anyone please help?

    I tried to stop the ipod service so I could plug the iPod and then restart it but it said error: the ipod service could not be stopped on the local computer. Error 1053: it said something about control and the service not being stopped in a timely fashion.

    Resolve communication issues
    Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers.
    Common errors: 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, or 3000-3999. These alerts refer to gs.apple.com, say "There was a problem downloading the software", or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build".

  • My 2nd generation iPod nano screen is showing lines and I cannot see the whole menu. How can I fix this problem?

    I believe that my wife disconnected the iPod nano (2nd Gen.) improperly and now the screen has a whole bunch of lines. I can see the screens moving when I move to the next screen. But it's just lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    well unfortunatley your warranty is over so the device is not covered,  BUT sounds like you have interupting signals being sent from a stuck home button constantly being pressed and maybe even a digitizer problem (the touch screen).  You can try to restore your ipod to your computer to see if it might be some kind of software related issue.  Just restore to the last sync you have on iTunes.  But FIRST...I would try to Reset your ipod.
    Go to Settings>General>Reset> Reset all settings.

  • Ipod nano screen blank

    Was listening to my ipod when the screen suddenly blanked out and the music stopped, though the click wheel still kept clicking sounds. It's fine when i reset it but this problem has reoccurred a few times, was wondering if there is anything i can do?

    Did you updated iPod software to 1.1.3 version?
    If so, downgrade it to 1.1.2 check my reply at:

    I hope this helps you.

  • My iPod's screen says "Connect to iTunes" and when I connect it to iTunes it's telling me to restore, but I don't want to restore/lose everything on it. The "Connect to iTunes" message won't go away.

    When I plugged my iPod into my macbook, a window for an iPod Touch software update popped up, so I clicked update, then it said that my iPod was over capacity or something similar to that, so basically I didn't have enough room for the update, which I thought was fine. So then once I unplugged my iPod, I was unable to use it. The screen was telling me to connect to iTunes (how it does when you first purchase an iPod, and turn it on for the first time.) So, I then connected it to iTunes and it told me I had to restore my iPod, it gave me no option other than to click "restore" But I don't want to lose everything that's on my iPod...but now I can't use it because the screen is still telling me to connect to itunes. How do I get out of restoring it?

    If you have a graphic of iTunes and a cable displayed on your iDevice then it is in Recovery mode.
    Check this to try an "exit"

  • Ipod nano a no show in itunes- but is in computer- newbie-Help!

    My old system barely exceeds the mins required & i use dialup. Just downloaded & installed itunes 7.1.059 to find 7.1.1 is a new 5hr download away or another trip to the library. Brand New Nano.
    Ipod shows up in my computer as removable disc. Shows in Device mgr as Ipod USB device. Using Ipod DX all green except for red-ipod (NOT) connected. Have tried reset, switch to disc mode & reset all to no avail. Ipod does not show up as device in itunes. Have tried several different usb ports-since it shows up in computer don't think that is really the issue. Itunes/ computer sometimes freezes after connecting ipod nano.Other than trying 7.1.1 any other thoughts on how to get itunes to see/find my nano?

    Sounds like you are trying to connect your iPod to your machine "over the wire" (Network) probably cannot do that. You might want to invest in a relatively inexpensive Belkin USB 2.0 PCI card, for your actual machine (on the Apple approved list) that should cure your problem. Good Luck!

  • My iPod Nano won't connect to iTunes and I need to charge. Sometimes it turns on but then, when I try to connect it when it turns on. It just turns off all over again. Please help?!

  • Ipod nano does not connect to itunes and will not launch. Help please?

    I was about to download some tracks onto my sons ipod nano when got the update message. I wish I had ignored it as my days have been taken over with scouring support, discussions and other sources to get itunes to launch. I have deleted, stopped, repaired and changed files. Nothing happens. No error message. Get the hour glass for couple of secs, thats all. Quicktime launches fine (also updated). Windows sees ipod hardware. What is going on? Granny is giving son an itunes gift card. As I have never allowed him to download tunes he is going to be thrilled............. except he can't use it!!!! I've spent way to many hours trying to find solution. Can anyone help me? Please?

    Sometimes iPod simply won't work off certain USB hubs. If it works directly off the computer, then continue to use that. Your only other choice is to try out other hubs until you find one that works. Is it a powered hub?

  • Ipod nano will not appear in itunes or windows, but my 30gb does

    My wife has a 30gb ipod and that connects to itunes without any problems. I have a ipod nano (4th gen) and I cannot get it to be recognized by itunes or in windows. I have reset it, but it still does not come up to sync up. What should I do here?

    What version of iTunes is on your computer?

  • Need to uninstall iTunes and reinstall, but wont allow because ituneshelper.resources is an invalid short file name and I have already unchecked it in msconfig what do I do next?

    I had iTunes installed onto my external hard drive and was having problems with diff things so decided to uninstall itunes and then install it onto my main hard drive. When I attempted this it told me that iTuneshelper.resources was not a valid short file name. After researching it I manually deleted all files that I could find relating to iTunes, Quicktime, iPod etc... at that time it will would not allow me to uninstall or reinstall. I furthered researched and found the file to be located in the startup in msconfig and unchecked it hoping that it would then allow me to uninstall or at least reinstall the program, but again failed. What else can I do? When it makes it to the install portion it says what drive it will be downloaded to and it says (I:) so I attempted to change it, but it has an error and wont allow me to change it to C: so does anyone know what I have to do to fix this thank you

    When I attempted this it told me that iTuneshelper.resources was not a valid short file name.
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • Ipod nano 4gb not showing in itunes or recognized as device

    Out of the blue my nano is not detected as a device with my Windows XP. First I tested my USB port to see if that was the issue. I connected a mouse which was recognized and worked fine. I then got another sync cord thinking maybe my cord went bad and that is not working either. When I used my old cord I received an error message that I exceeded the power limit on my hub port. Which is why I thought my cord was bad. With the second cord I get no such errow however the ipod is charging but doing nothing else. I've gone out to my device list to see if there were any visible errors or anything diabled and its not showing any. But its also not showing an ipod or mass hub device like it normally would. Any thoughts on the issue would be greatly appreciated!

    My ipod is doing the same thing. could you please tell me how you fixed it?
