Listen iPod nano in the car

Hello, I want to listen my iPod nano in my Subaru Legacy car. I've bought USB to aux cable, connected one end to iPod and another end to car's USB port. It does not recognize iPod as USB device. Please advice how could I connect my iPod to USB in the car?

Is your head unit in the Legacy iPod compatilble. If yes does it require a special cable?
Your solution could not work.

  • Use ipod nano in the car

    Hi,
    I wanna use my ipod nano in the car. I know they have FM transmitter stuffs but I'd prefer not to have any bit of static and radio interference. So I asked my car dealer to install a headphone port in my car as an auxillary port (they said it's an ipod kit). But using with normal cable doesn't let me play around with ipod using the stereo buttons of the car. So I think what I need is a cable that has a dock connector at one end and a headphone port at the other. But it doesn't seem to be sold anywhere. Any thought or suggestion is greatly appreciated.

    What car do you have? Not all cars have the ability to do this look though here for other options to do that http://www.apple.com/ipod/ipodyourcar/

  • Charging iPod Nano in the car

    From other posts in this area it seems that the iPod Nano is able to be charged via an Apple Firewire/iPod cable but it will not sync (transfer tunes) via the Firewire cable.
    This seems OK provided that I can continue to use my Griffin car charger to charge the Nano (I connect my current iPod headphone socket to an iFire amplifier and then directly to the car speakers
    (see http://www4.tpgi.com.au/users/aoaug/macosx.html#hifi )
    Also I should be able to use my old iPod AC adapter with the firewire cable to the iPod dock connector. My main requirement is to be able to charge the iPod Nano will travelling when I dont have access to a computer with USB.
    This all depends on being able to use the connector cable from the previous model iPod (20Gb) with teh Nano.

    Yes your old iPod chargers will work as long as you can use a cable that connects to the bottom of the iPod (dock connector)
    Also any charging accessory should work again as long as it can be connected as the iPods all required the same charge voltage, etc.

  • Questions using ipod nano in the car

    Hi !
    I´m using my iPod in the car on an Alpine Car Stereo .
    All things work perfect until I install the iPod-Update Firmware1.1.3
    Now I have problems like:
    The iPod doesn´t remind the last titles; that means: today I´m hearing "Rock" and if I
    turn on the radio tomorrow morning, it´s searching for the iPod an than begins to play the
    first of 350 songs (for example)
    And I find out, that the iPod battery is empty. Normally it get´s loaded by using it during a ride.
    Any suggestions about that ??
    Are there any special things I have to switch in the iPod menue or what ?
    Thanks in advance !

    First thing to check is the Shuffle function of the iPod. Shuffle should be set to OFF to work with the Alpine correctly and when you updated the firmware it may have reset the iPod to default to turning the Shuffle feature ON.

  • Left iPod nano in the car, having problems

    Left the nano on the seat by accident on an 80ish degree day. I think it's fried but I want to be sure. Basically it loads up fine, and the computer recognizes it and everything, but the wheel and buttons won't work.
    The funny part is the buttons still work to reset the iPod which I've done 4 or 5 times to no avail, so I know the buttons aren't really broken. They just won't navigate past the "Language" screen. Any ideas I can try before I toss it?

    You didn't mention if you had tried restoring it. If your PC recognizes it, then try it; otherwise, it might be history.

  • Does the ipod nano save the position in a track when you turn it off?

    Hello friends,    
    I listen to a lot of Dhamma talks that tend to be 30 minutes to an hour long. I am considering getting an ipod nano. The reason is that my current mp3 player, an old sony walkman, will forget the position of the track I am listening to if I turn it off and come back to it in a few days. Will the ipod nano save the position of where I am, even if i turn it off and come back to it a week later? Also, which generations have this feature and which do not?
    EDIT:
    Reading a few posts, it seems that the new ipod nanos will forget the track, just like my walkman. Which of the old generation ipod classics and nanos have this feature?
    Thank you.
    May you fare well,
    James

    If you have Shake to Shuffle turned off and you push the sleep button it shouldn't change songs in your pocket. Mine doesn't.

  • How do I run 2 ipod nanos on the same itunes on the same computer?

    Hi We now have 2 ipod nanos in the house, one 2nd generation and the other 3rd generation. How do we use the same computer with itunes set up for each nano's music? Many Thanks

    No need to re-import CDs again. As long as the files are on computer in a directory accessible to logged in user then they can be added to library.
    Files added in one library are not automatically added to any other library. Each library is independent of the others except in the case of deleted files. If one library deletes a file from library and disc then the other library will still have entry in iTunes but will have "!" next to it because the file itself is gone.

  • I sent in my iPod nano to the replacement program about two weeks back. However, I checked the status of the repair and it still says it has not been received yet. Is there any way to follow up on where the nano could be? I sent it via FedEx.

    I sent in my iPod nano to the replacement program about two weeks back. However, I checked the status of the repair and it still says it has not been received yet. However, my boyfriend sent in his the same time I did and his repair status says repair being diagnosed. I still have the "receipt" of the package when they first sent it to me. I sent it via FedEx. Is there any way to follow up on where the nano could be or maybe find out if I can still get a replacement even though my nano might be lost in transit?

    I sent it via FedEx. 
    Call FedEx.  They will be able to track their own packages.  They will let you know if your iPod Nano was delivered and to who!

  • My daughter disconnected her iPod nano from the lead before ejecting the device.  It no longer syncs and we have re-set the device, but it now only occasionally appears on the computer screen any suggestions please?

    Restoring the iPod will do nothing to his iPhone.
    When you restore it wipes the iPod clean no matter what computer you use.
    The only plus to doing it form your home computer is if you have a backup stored there, then you can restore from the backup once it's done wiping.
    If you are away form your home computer, go ahead and use the computer you have to restore it, then when you get home, you can restore form any backup you may find. You can use this to help you do that when you get there: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

  • Ive restored my Ipod nano and the songs that I've already purchased are now not syncing to my device. How do I get those songs back on the nano?

    Ive restored my Ipod nano and the songs that I've already purchased are now not syncing to my device. How do I get those songs back on the nano?

    Either redownload them directly to the iPod by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    or sync them to your iPod via iTunes
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod            

  • If I turn in my 1st generation iPod Nano into the iPod Nano replacement program, what iPod will I get?

    Neither. You will get an 8GB silver 6th Generation Nano.

  • I want to connect the ipod directly to the car 's speakers without any amplifiers, is there any danger to burn the ipod?

    I want to connect the ipod directly to the car 's speakers without any amplifiers, is there any danger to burn the ipod?

    No, but it will not work. The iPod does not have an amplifier in it that is powerful enough to drive the speakers in your car.
    So, do you have a stereo in the car, either factory fitted or one you have had fitted after it came out of the factory? If you do, check to see if the car's stereo either has a dedicated input for an iPod or an auxilary (aux input) socket.
    Some modern cars (for example, my 2006 model Mazda 3) have stereos that can be fitted with iPod connectors. I paid to have one fitted to my Mazda's factory-fitted stereo. So now, I connect my iPod to the car's stereo via a dock connector and I have limited control of the iPod from the car's steering wheel. Some cars have more sophisticted control than mine does.
    Alternatively, if the car's stereo has an Aux input socket, you only need to buy a headphone-to-headphone lead and connect from the iPod's headphone socket to the Aux input.
    If you don't have either of those options, another method is to use a transmitter. These small radio transmitters are connected into the headphone socket of the iPod and then transmit the audio (like radio) so that you can tune your car's radio to the same frequency as the transmitter. You control the iPod as you do when using headphones. The sound quality will porbably not be as good as the dedicated dock connector method, but it's reasonable.

  • I have just bought an ipod classic, I already have an ipod nano.  The new ipod was connected to the computer to charge and it named itself with my name on the old nano, how do I get the computer to recognise the new one

    I have just bought an ipod classic, I already have an ipod nano.  The new ipod was connected to the computer to charge and it named itself with my name on the old nano, how do I get the computer to recognise the new one?

    My mistake, it was nothing to do with format.  It woldn't sync because my movies were HD.  HD movies won't sync to an iopd classic 160 GB but when you purchase a HD movie, itunes gives you a SD vervsion of the movie which is compatible with the ipod.  Just needed to go to store, click movies, click purchased and untick the HD box and there you have the SD versions.  Download the SD versions and then sync your ipod and bobs you uncle, movies are on the ipod
