Is there a way to charge my Ipod Nano on my computer without turning off?

Trying to find out correctly if I had to put in sleep or hibernate. Just a first time user of Apple Products. Not rushing by the way, but if anyone can respond ASAP right away that's fine, because I'm tired by the way and I don't want to kind of mess up my Ipod Nano w/ watchband.

Just connect it, doesn't matter if it is off or on. But make sure your computer does not go to sleep because it will shut off charging and may actually drain the battery of the Nano.

  • HT1510 how do I continue to charge my ipod shuffle once the computer automatically turns off?

    How do I continue to charge my ipod shuffle once the computer automatically turns off from lack of imput.

    If the shuffle's light turns off, it is not charging.  The computer needs to be active, so that the USB port has power.  You'll need to set the computer so that it turns off the display after inactivity, but the computer remains "awake."
    Or, you can get a USB power adapter, like this

    and charge the shuffle on the power adapter.

    Hello xerxes.nashion,
    It sounds like your iPod is not recognized by iTunes or your MacBook Pro.  I recommend following the steps in the article below for an issue like this:

  • Is there any way to charge an iPod Touch while connected to another device?

    I'm using an iPod Touch connected to a pico projector (which is plugged into the wall), which of course limits the time I can run a presentation to the battery life of the iPod. Is there *any way* to charge the iPod while the connection port is in use (or otherwise connect it to A/C power)? I'm looking for any and all workarounds, though connecting it to a computer as a go-between is not an option. I'm using the Microvision SHOWWX pico projector, if it makes a difference. Thanks!

    Aha - this Composite video a/v cable solved my problem. Not sure why I had such difficulty finding this solution. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC748ZM/A

  • Is there a way to use my iPod Nano to listen to a radio frequency with wireless headphones.  It tells me that I have to plug in my headphones to receive the stations and when I do, the wireless headphones don't work!

    Is there a way to use my iPod Nano to listen to a radio frequency with wireless headphones.  It tells me that I have to plug in my headphones to receive the stations and when I do, the wireless headphones don't work!

    No. I'm sorry. But, i think it uses the headphones as an antenna so it has to be plugged in to headphones in order to make it work. but, it burns the battery down so i don't use the radio function that much.

  • While restoring my iPod Touch second generation computer is turned off the screen goes black what do I do?

    While restoring my iPod Touch second generation computer is turned off the screen goes black what do I do?

    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.

  • Ipod nano 6 gen hangs when turning off the backlight. That is, it doesn't respond to button presses on the touch screen.

    ipod nano 6 gen hangs when turning off the backlight. That is, it does not respond to button presses on the touch screen. He also has just a white screen instead of the desktop display. Tried to rearrange the screen from another Ipod nano, but nothing came of it - all the same ... What should I do?

    Hi Rc_Drifter,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  The article below will help you troubleshoot the issue you are having with your iPod nano. Restoring the device may resolve the backlight issue as well.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3474
    Display shows a white screen
    Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
    Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
    When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
    While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • Ipod nano 7th: Screen flashes white (turns off) and stops the music.

    I just got a brand new Ipod nano 7th: Less than 10 seconds after the song starts playing the screen flashes white, the apple logo shows up and it returns to 'home' screen. Battery is full. Tried to restart but that didnt help!
    What could be the problem?

    Hi joannefromhkg,
    If your iPod nano (7th generation) will not turn on at all I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
    iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
    Specifically -
    Follow these steps if your iPod a power-related issue.
    Will not turn on or screen remains dark
    Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
    If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting it while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least six seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
    If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
    If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
    And -
    Issue not resolved
    If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • HT2864 Hi! is there a way of using my iPod nano with different Nike+ accounts?

    Hi!
    I no longer use my iPod for running since i now have my iPhone 4. I'd like to give it to my girlfriend who is just starting to run. But whenever i open iTunes (even with her account) it automatically connects to my NIke+ account and I can't find the way of linking it with my girlfriend's account.
    Is there any way of doing so? Could anybody please help me?
    Thxxxx

    No.  You can sync content directly from an iPod to another iPod or iPad.  The content you wish to transfer needs to be in your iTunes library first.
