Ipod video nano will not sync

My ipod video nano use to sync but suddenly will not sync. Computer registers that I have plugged the usb/nano in by ringing but it will not pull up Itunes or if I pull up Itunes it does not recognize my ipod. I have plugged the usb into several different ports, I have restarted my computer, I have re-downloaded current version of itunes......please help!

Try using some backup software like Aniosoft Smart Backup to backup your files first!

  • 3rd gen iPod Nano will not sync with latest version of iTunes. It passes the connectivity test but not the sync test under diagnostics.  Worked fine on old Windows 7 laptop but not new one.  From Control Panel it shows up as an Apple iPod USB Device...

    Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
    There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

  • 3rd gen nano will not sync with lastest version of itunes

    I have a third gen nano I haven't used in a while.  I downloaded the lastest version of itunes, and the nano will not sync.  Also the screen layout does not look
    like it used to.  There is no left side "menu" on screen that all the writen support talks about.  Anyone can help??

  • My 6th generation nano will not sync music from itunes anymore

    My 6th generation nano will not sync music from itunes anymore.

    could you give us a bit more detail on the situation, Eeve?
    is it that the songs say that they're transferring, and appear on the ipod screen in itunes, but when you unplug the ipod they aren't on there? or is something a bit different going on?
    (if you're getting an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

  • HT1414 My Nano will not sync with iTunes.

    Nano will not sync with iTunes.  I get an error to retry or to reinstall.  I've tried most of the troubleshooting suggestions on the website.  I have not reinstalled.  My iPhone and iPad both sync with no issues.  The computer recognizes the Nano.  Is reinstalling my only option?  This started when I tried to update my devices with new music.  I noticed the error the next morning before my run and my Nano all the sudden had no music.  Went to re-sync and I received the error.

    It could be a number of issues, such as the soddering that connects the 30-pin adapter that then connects to your computer could have come loose. However that is unlikely unless you have dropped your device a lot. But for anyone to be of more assistance you will need to provide more information. Such as: does the divice still show up in iTunes? If not then you may have to put it into DUF mode, or you could bring it in to your nearest apple store and see how much help they can be. Caution: once in DUF mode you should be able to restore the device to its orginal settings and the newest software, but you will have to re-sync your libary, redo all of your selections ect. unless you have a local backup on your coumputer which you should be able to acess by [option]-click the restore button and selecting the latest backup, (at least I believe its [option]-click).
    Hope this helps.

  • Video Podcasts Will Not Sync; Audio Podcasts Do

    I recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to the ios 5. Now when I sync my iPhone to iTunes, my video podcasts will not sync. I have not changed any of my settings, and I noticed "All podcasts" is selected under Podcasts section. Audio podcasts sync fine. All was fine until I did the recent software upgrade. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

    They are there.  They are now under the "Video" app on the first page of your device.  Seems like a pointless change to me.  It took me a couple of days to find mine, too.

  • HT3951 I purchased a movie and it downloaded to my computer but it is not on my ipod and it will not sync manually. It showes upin my purchased list on ipod but not in my videos. HELP THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY

    I purchased a movie and it downloaded to my computer but it is not on my Ipod touch. It will not sync manually, I've tried. It shows up on my ipod as purchased but it is not in my videos. When I go to the movie from purchases it says DOW in the corner.HELP THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY

    Hello,
    If you have an iPod Touch you can watch movies on it.
    Did you sync the movie with iTunes between your computer and your iPod ?
    Connect iPod touch to a USB 2.0 port on your Mac or PC using the included cable.
    Follow the onscreen instructions in iTunes to set up iPod touch and sync your music, video, photos, and other content.
    Your computer must be connected to the Internet.
    By default, iTunes automatically syncs all songs and videos in your iTunes library to iPod touch. If you have more content in your library than will fit on iPod touch, iTunes alerts you that it can’t sync your content. You’ll need to use iTunes to select some of your songs, videos, and other content to sync.

  • My ipod nano will not sync with anything

    about 2 months ago i bought an ipod nano 4gb. It has worked great until i updated my itunes the other day. I sync'ed it fine and added some songs, but now it will not sync with anything. not my computer, my buddies computer, or my xbox 360. it will charge though. I also have an ipd mini that works fine. i am getting very angry and i need some help befor i lose what is left on my already deminishing mind. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!
    P.S. has anybody else noticed that apple has the worst support out there. i cant even get a phone number without buying a service plan

    Hey all, I had to call Apple Support to resolve the issue as nothing on the web provided an answer. So for all you out there having the same problem, here's the ituation and full resolution, so you can save time and money (if your product's warranty is expired).
    Situation: I bought a brand new Mac Air on 12/7/12 and tried to sync my 6th generation iPod nano (previously configured to a PC) with no sucess. ITunes was only allowing me to charge and eject the nano.
    Solution:
    1. Go to View>sidebar
    2. In the sidebar, click "iPod" under the Devicies category
    3. Click "Music" section next to "Summary" under the status bar
    4. Make sure "Sync" box is checked with your preferred preferences underneath
    5. Click "Sync" in bottom right corner of window
    Apparently, iTunes 11 is quite different and the sidebar with usual options and playlists does not appear unless selected in the "View" drop-down.
    FINISHED!  

  • My iPod Nano will not sync with my brand new Mac Air...will charge

    My iPod nano (touch) will not sync with my iTunes on my brand new Macbook Air. It will charge my iPod and give the option to eject the iPod, but it will not recognize my iPod to sync. Any ideas why and how to fix it?

  • My ipod nano will not sync with my new PC???

    I have moved all my music to my itunes library on my new computer. All of my itunes purchased music appears in my library on new computer as well. The new computer is registered.
    Every time I plug my ipod into the computer, it will not sync. It says it's syncing and turns for maybe 5 sec.s and then disconnects. I can't find anyplace to change syncing settings. I have the latest itunes version and things seem to be rearranged a bit.
    I know my ipod is not syncing b/c there are old playlists in my ipod that are not in my new library. Also, I've purchased new songs and they won't move over to the ipod.
    Please advise.

    Nevermind. I figured it out.

  • IPod nano will not sync to computer or car.

    My iPod will not sync to my computer or car. I tried re-set but it did not work. This happened after I had been using it in my car then went to the computer and added some more music. Since then it will not sync.

    If the iPod does not appear in Computer Management (during that drive letter change procedure), it probably means the connection between iPod and computer is faulty.  If you plugged in the iPhone 5 to the same USB port, the port is OK.  It could be the USB docking cable becoming faulty, because iPhone 5 uses a different cable, correct?  If you have another cable to try, or can try that cable with another device, you could rule out a bad cable.  And then, it would be a problem on the iPod.
