Ipod nano video and audio

I am thinking of getting my first apple product which would be a nano. The question I have is can use video from other sources other then from apple also can I use audio other the from apple?

You really should have posted this in the iPod Nano forum rather than the iPhone forum.
You can use video from other sources so long as they meet the specs for the type of videos the Nano will play. Specs are available at the Apple Online Store, information for how to convert videos is available at http://www.ilounge.com. If you are thinking about Limewire or similar pirate sites, please don't: their files are often flaky and many times contain viruses and malware. Please don't steal music or videos.
While at the website you can also check the music formats the iPod can play, which is extensive. One it can't play is WMA protected files.

  • Ipod Nano video and Ihome to go(26)/ unable to wake to music???

    Have a new nano video and the Ihome 2 go model 26. Have it set up correctly and all functions work on the Ihome except wake to music, it buzzes. You can go to sleep with music but can not set it to wake to music. Contacted Ihome support and they say a fireware update is needed from Apple. Anyone know anything about this? Thanks.

    Hi, Plugged in nano, checked software and it said no update needed. I just want to clarify iHome customer service said this is a current known problem with my iHome guess I will be emailing Apple to see if I can track down an answer. Thanks

  • Ipod nano video and radio????

    hi, i have a ipod radio and i was wondering if you can putt a movie on it and watch it or can you putt radio stations from itunes on youre ipod?

    Video is only for the iPod with video, not the nano. Radio stations from iTunes require an internet connection, so no iPod can play them. You can buy an FM tuner that attaches to your iPod and lets you play regular radio stations though.

  • Ipod nano 4gb and car audio

    Hi everyone, I've got an iPod Nano 4gb and am a little confused as to what is required to connect this device to my factory installed cd player. I drive a 2006 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab and have the basic factory audio system. I spoke with the dealership where I purchased the truck and they said that I need an interface and harness for $400 + labor. I don't think that is an option for me -- way too expensive.
    What exactly is need to connect my iPod Nano to my truck's audio system? Do I need to purchase a new audio device that supports the iPod?
    Thanks

    The following website will list different types of car audio devices made for iPods. I hope it lists something that may help you.

    Hello All...
    Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
    I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio. 

  • Formatted my new iPod Nano 4Gb and my application can't find the Device ID

    Hi,
    Just bought a new Nano 4Gb, updated it to 2006-06-28 (1.2) and of course it couldn't be recognized by Windows after that. Followed the instruction and formatted the Nano and made a Restore, worked fine!
    Now to my problem, when using my application Anapod Explorer (from www.redchairsoftware.com) it can connect to the Nano but it says the iPod don't have any Device ID so it can't authenticate to the iPod...
    Anyone more who is using this superb software?
    It seems like if some information is missing in the iPod after the formatting of it...
    Please advice!
    Best Regards

    Additional Information:
    Since some information seems to be missing on my iPod Nano 4Gb I compared the files with my iPod Video 60Gb.
    Comparing the directories: [driveletter]:\iPod_Control\Device
    on my iPod Nano 4Gb and my iPod Video 60Gb
    iPod Nano 4Gb:
    The file SysInfo is empty, containing no data when opened in Notepad.
    iPod Video 60Gb:
    The file SysInfo is of 1KB and another file named "_unlocked" is present.
    The information in the SysInfo file is:
    BoardHwName: iPod M25
    pszSerialNumber: JQ6040HFTXL
    ModelNumStr: MA147

    I have done the diagnstic test on the Nano and there are no errors and the iPod Nano is functional but I can only use iTunes to load it with music, I can't use the wonderful Anapod Explorer.
    Another thing:
    When connecting my iPod Video to my computer it shows up with a drive looking like an MP3 player, when connecting my iPod Nano it shows up looking like an ordinary disc drive.

  • Ipod nano video firmware

    I think the current v1.0.2 firmware is in need of an update, as this has caused me no end of problems with my ipod nano video, causing it to shutdown on it's own and then require switch to disk mode, to restore. Trouble is, each time I get it back to v1.0.1 firmware, as soon as it's connected to iTunes, it recognises v1.0.2 is available and prompts me to install (whether I have auto update checked or not).
    With v1.0.2 I also have a problem after I've added songs as the ipod just switches to a black screen with the apple logo and it can't be used. Not much use for a player bought as a present for someone.
    So c'mon Apple, do the decent thing and provide a firmware update to fix this problem, as it seems I'm far from being the only one having problems going by the forums here.

    Send your feedback to Apple via the appropriate link.

    Also, when discussing the nano 3rd gen, it's always best to use the correct forum.

  • MAJOR PROBLEM ABOUT VIDEOS IN IPOD NANO VIDEOS!

    i neeeed help !
    i added mpegs videos to iTunes Library but when i tried updating my iPod nano video , it wouldnt and it says it has to be converted so the videocan be used for the iPod and i did but when i played the videos on the iPod nano Video there was no sound .
    HOW IN TTHE WORLD DID THAT HAPPEN?
    anyone has answers for me pls. ?

    There is no such thing as a nano video.
    There is a fifth-generation, full sized iPod capable of video, but there is no nano capable of video playback.
    What ipod do you have? The fact that you say it does play video indicates that it's a fifth-gen. If that's the case, what version firmware are you running? Go to SETTINGS > ABOUT to find out.
    Cheers!

  • I just purchased an iPod Nano (Red) and want to connect to my truck's speakers.  There is no built-in direct port.  What is the best product to buy to make that connection?

    I just purchased an iPod Nano (Red) and want to connect to my truck's speakers.  There is no built-in port to connect.  What is the best product to purchase in order to make a connection?  Thx, Robert

    Your truck's audio system may not have a specialized docking port for iPods, or a USB port, but does it have a standard "auxiliary" audio input port?  It would look like headphones jack on the iPod.  If so, you can use a cable like this
    http://www.amazon.com/Monster-iCable-Player-Auxiliary-Input/dp/B002AR5XIK
    to connect your iPod's output to the car's audio. 
    Otherwise, if your audio system is old enough to have a casette tape player, you can get a device that looks casette tape with a cable coming out of it, and play your iPod through the casette tape player.  The other way is to get a device for the iPod that sends the audio, through a low-power radio transmitter, to your car's radio (at a frequency that is normally not used by local radio).  From my experience, neither of those methods work well, in terms of maintaining full audio quality.
