TS3474 Why does my iPod Nano turn off after one minute of use?

I just got a new 16 GB iPod Nano and it turns off after one minute of use. Why does it do this?

I figured it out. Headphones were not plugged all the way in. This support community is awesome. Thanks everyone.

Change the rice and dry for another couple of days. Then:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Can a one please help me turn off auto play for Facebook the option is no longer in my General settings why is this ?

Can a one please help me turn off auto play for Facebook the option is no longer in my General settings why is this ?

And yet the link you posted only tells you how to do it on the Facebook App for Android. Nothing about the Facebook page is mentioned at all, or how to do it on an iPhone.
With that said, and assuming you have the most up to date version of the Facebook App, you can now turn the auto play feature Off within the Facebook App itself. Tap on the "More" icon on the bottom right, then scroll down to Settings->Videos and Photos->Auto Play. If Smart auto-Play is on turn it off. Then you can set the check mark on "Never Play Videos Automatically" which is the same as Off.

After loading the 1.1 update my nano turns off after 60 seconds. is there a fix for this?

After loading the 1.1 update for my nano ipod my nano shuts down after playing the music for 60 seconds. Is anyone else having this problem and is there a fix for it? Very frustrating to have to keep hitting the sleep/wake button and then play to make the music start again during my workout.

You have probably fixed the problem by now, but I also just bought a Nano and it was very frustrating with the music shutting off before the first half a dozen bars of the song. I rang Apple and they sent me this page.... (if anyone else needs help)

All it was that I hadn't pushed the headphones in until they were flush up against the Nano.
Thanks Apple!

Air Display Turns Off After 10-15 mins - Why? What's the fix?

I recently upgraded to OSX10.8 on my early 2012 mac mini. I have been using AirDisplay as my screen.
I've run into an problem. The AirDisplay prefpane now turns itself off after 10-15 mins if its not being used. It also doesn`t activate on reboot.
This is obviously a problem as I don‘t have a monitor.
I started to use logmein instead, but its not ideal as its mouse isn’t quite as usable (it works in the current release after many months of bugs and patchy performance).
I've been going back and forth with Avatron for a few weeks (they've been very supportive), and they proposed two solutions:
Uninstall / reinstall using a newly downloaded package
Delete the hidden com.avatron preference files
Neither has worked.
I also made a rather pathetic to write an applescript to select the menu app item "Turn Air Display On" , but I didn't really know what I was doing (here's my poor effort below). As I didn‘t get this working when the menu option was available, I didn’t proceed.
tell application "System Events"
     set UI_Enabled to UI elements enabled
          tell application process "AirDisplayStatusItem"
          entire contents
               tell menu bar 1
                    tell menu bar item 1
                         click menu item "Turn Air Display On"
                    end tell
               end tell
     end tell
end tell
get entire contents of application process "AirDisplayStatusItem" returns
--> {menu bar 1 of application process "AirDisplayStatusItem", menu bar item 1 of menu bar 1 of application process "AirDisplayStatusItem"}
Result:
error "System Events got an error: Can’t get menu item \"Turn Air Display On\" of menu bar 1 of application process \"AirDisplayStatusItem\"." number -1728 from menu item "Turn Air Display On" of menu bar 1 of application process "AirDisplayStatusItem
Has anyone any ideas on how to resolve this?

This may be a Windows 8 issue. I finally fixed this problem by identifying the screen saver as the issue (and I wasn't using a screen saver). Type "lock the computer" into the search box after clicking the search charm, which brings up the screen saver dialog box. Mine was set to 1 minute, though I'd never set it myself. If you can't change it, choose a screen saver and you should be able to do so (and can then switch back to no screen saver). BUT, here's the problem. Other things you install (or settings within things you install) can apparently change and override whatever you type in for the delay time. Try applying your new time and exiting from the dialog box, then open it back up again. I was finding that it kept going back to 1 minute. To reset things so that you can get control again, type "user accounts" into the search box and when the dialog box comes up, choose "Reset Security Policies". Then you can go back to the screen saver dialog and successfully change the delay time.

The video on the Camera app seems to turn off after a few min...I am trying to do a 20 min video. What am I doing wrong please?

The camera app has a video feature on it and I tried to do a 20 min video but it seems to turn off after a few minutes. I tried twice with the same results. There is no info under settings or anywhere on time restraints. Does anyone have any suggestions please?

Sasabean-
I do not know if this is related to your problem, but there is a setting on the iPad called "Auto-Lock". Mine is set for 5 minutes. One of the options is Never. See Settings-General-Auto-Lock.

Ipod nano turns of after short amount of time

My Ipod nano 6th G turns off after about 30 seconds. I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix it.

Make sure the headphones are plugged ALL the way in, meaning the white part of the headphones is flush with the Nano. No silver from the headphone's plug should still be seen.

Why does my ipod nano turn off and on?

why does my ipod nano turn on and off?

Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
Did you try everything above, including trying on another computer? If so then
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

New iPod Nano Turns off in the middle of any track playing - Apple Bummer

So, I just received my iPod Nano as a replacement to an early generation of iPod Nano's that are subject to recall. The new Nano has been updated as of 21 Jan 2012. Songs loaded into iTunes under MAC OS X Lion, iPod Nano synched with my computer, and I'm ready to go.
What - not so fast! Guess what? The Nano turns itself off in the middle of any track you play. I turned the shake and shuffle mode off to make sure that is not it. And it is fully charged. I even went through the reset procedures.
So its less than 24 hours new/old so I go for Apple support. My original iTunes etc accounts are associated with my house in America. But I live in the UK right now. So drill through Apple support and guess what? Well, I live in London so no support is available. And the Apple web site as usual does not provide much help in making calls.
Apple's web site says there is no coverage on this as it is out of warranty? 24 hours new? No warranty. It says it comes with a one year warranty. And Apple UPS'd it to me yesterday.
So question 1 is: Does anybody know what the problem is and how to fix it? I hope it isn't operator head space but who knows, maybe it is.
And question 2: Does anybody have a good 800 number for me to call in the USA?
Many thanks.

I have the same problem and wondered if it was loosey goosey headphones which were just cheap 10 dollars buds. So are you saying I should get new ear phones that fit tighter?
That would be my guess....Here is what Apple has to say about the problem.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3700
My guess is that it is a compatibility problem with older or aftermarket ear buds. My daughter has a 6th generation Nano and does not have this problem but keep in mind she is using the ear buds that came with the 6th Generation Nano. With the replacement program they are not sending new ear buds. I just did a test with my daughters 6th Generation Nano using an old set of aftermarket ear buds I had in my desk and I was able to duplicate your issue. I then used the ear buds from my Iphone 4s and did not have an issue with the Nano going to sleep and the music turning off.

My Ipod Nano shuts off after awhile during use? Is this a defect or is this something correctable with the sleep/wake button? I want it to play continuously while I use it, not continually shut down?

You don't have the headset jack plugged all the way in. Make sure the plastic on the headset jack is flush with the body of the Nano.

Nano turns off after unplugging from computer

My nano works fine, if its plugged into my computer. When I eject and then unplug it turns off and I can't get it to turn back on. Once I managed to unplug and get it to turn on, then turned it off then I tried to turn it on again 5 mins later but nothing. Battery says it's off and I go through making sure everything is off or paused at least before unplugging but same result everytime.

I think this is ridiculous. I got the iPod nano 4th generation (8gb) this summer and my click wheel isn't working. Apple is making a huge mistake by ignoring our emails which could lead to business loss.
But!! I know how to get it working (for a while).
You just leave your ipod alone for about a week or two. And it's completely responsive. But unfortunately if you plug it into the computer, the wheel will become unresponsive again. It costs more to fix than to buy. <-- Crazy
The only thing is that i've lost the reciept ¬¬' But if you go to an official apple store. I've got a great excuse or whatever to why you deserve a new ipod or money back. It is 3 years garentee and it has only been made for 2 years.
Going to the store soon so i'll see if i can give you guys some info.
