MS Windows Professional 2000, SP3 and IPOD Nano drivers

I've just received my new iPOD nano and trying to instal software on my laptop I found that it requests SP4 that I couldn't install on my laptop due to policy requirements.
Could I download any previous release or what can I do?I have Administration rights, too so do you advise me to instal SP 4?
Thanks a lot for your help,
Ciao Matz

Welcome to the forums.
Well, if your laptop is not yours, and your not supposed to install anything new on it, such as SP4, then I wouldn't advise you to break the rules.
If you have Admin rights, meaning you are allowed to do things, cause you are admin, then go ahead, cause the service packs are designed to make Windows run better. The service packs don't hurt, they help.
Hope this helps!

Windows vista 64 bit and ipod nano

Hi, we are having problems getting our 3 new ipod nano generation 5 to work on our windows vista computer. Itunes won't recognize them have tried to uninstall itunes but get a message to verify we have sufficient access to that key, or contact support personnel, and then we click ok and it stops the uninstall does anyone know how to correct this problem or what we need to do to get the ipods to work on itunes with windows vista 64bit computer? I saw an answer for a 32bit computer but read that it is different for a 64bit computer. Thanks!

I, too, am having the same problems. Very frustrating to have a nano 4 generation that needs only the latest iTunes software but a computer that requires 64 bit software.
If you get an answer, let me know. I even paid to have music loaded on my nano ipod yesterday and because it was attached to my computer, when I booted up, it somehow went to checkdisk mode and cleaned all the music out! Am ready to throw it out and get a non-Mac ipod instead. But if you have THE answer, I'd really like to hear about it. Thanks.

Ipod Nano -Itunes version that works with Windows professional 2000

Hi - Just purchased a Ipod Nano but I have Windows professional 2000. Is there a version I can download. Thanks Dianne

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
This works great! I was just about to give up when I found your post 2 days ago. I have searched and searched for it again to say how much I appreciate your information. Winamp works just great with my Ipod Nano 3rd gen. and Windows 2000. My daughter is thrilled, and I don't have to resell my Ipod Nano now, as I purchased mine from ebay for x-mas.
Thanks My Chile friend!

Hello, Pete.
Here is an article I would recommend going through when an iPod is not recognized by iTunes or the computer.

Usually the resolution is updating the Apple Mobile Device Driver. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

I had this same problem. I was reading another discussion that had this problem as well and they suggested unplugging your printer. I have a Lexmark printer connected through USB. I unplugged the printer and my ipod has worked like a charm. Strange!

Syncing iPhone and ipod nano toi the same iTunes

I have an iPhone (16GB) and and Ipod nano (4GB) and about 9GB of content in my iTUnes. IS it possible to sync both these to the same iTunes library on the same pc. All the iTunes content is on the iPhone but it is too much for iPod nano. I use the two for different things for eg: the nano has nike Plus on it and I also use it for gym etc
in Effect, can you have 2 different libraries to sync with different ipods on the same PC and iTunes

Yes, you can use multiple devices with one library, I use 2 regular iPods and a shuffle (I have a friend who syncs both an iPhone and a Nano, she syncs each with it's own separate playlist). You can for instance have one sync the entire library and another sync a selected playlist or playlists. iTunes recognises each device that is connected and they can each have their own individual settings: There are several different ways to use multiple devices with one computer, you can read more heres: How to use multiple iPods with one computer

Synch between iPad, iPhone and iPod nano

When I buy music on ITunes from iPad, how can I transfer the music to my iPhone and iPod nano without using a PC?

With an iPhone then if you are in a country where music can be re-downloaded then it should appear in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone. For the Nano you can't, you will need to copy the music from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases and then sync it to the Nano (and similarly for the phone if you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded) - you can't connect either of them to your iPad for direct trasnfer.

HT1386 Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itune

Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itunes, therefore i can't change playlists or add songs etc. Is this a fault with itunes as it was fine with the older version or is there something i can do. I'm not on IOS yet but would like to backup my phone first but can't do that atm due to not being able to view my phone on itunes!
Thanks

Why is the Nike apps different on the iTouch and iPod nano

Can someone explain why Apple put different apps on iTouch and iPod nano and call it only Nike +. There are obvious difference in the apps. I want the app that stores heart information...but the Nike + app on the iTouch only records distance ran. Why not make one app that does both?
what is the deal and can I load the Nike + app that comes on the nano on my iTouch 4gen?
Will the Nike + app for the iTouch be upgrade to work with the Polar heart band and Nike + Gym?

Yes and Yes.
When I navigate to Notification Center in Settings from an iPhone 4:
Notifications view - on
Today view - on
Today summary - on
Calendar day view - off
Reminders - on
Stocks - off
Tomorrow summary - off
Sort by Time
The only apps I don't include are third party and have nothing to do with weather.
Usually when I swipe down on the Today view it's only giving me the date.
Thanks for taking the time to help me!

Ice-Link Plus and iPod Nano 3G

Hi,
I've been using an Dension Ice-Link plus and iPod Nano 1G in my Alfa GT for two years without any problem. Now I'm thinking in buying a new Nano 3G but I don't know the Ice-Link is fully compatible with the new Nano 3G.
The Dension Support hasn't answer yet to this question.
I suppose it will be as the base connector haven't changed but I'd like to know if someone in this forum could confirm it or not.
Thanks,

I use the Ice Link Plus in my BMW, and I can confirm that the Nano 3G indeed works with my system. Ought to work with yours aswell.
Must say that I'm a bit disappointed on Dension aswell... they could have done this test and written some info on their site. Buying the Nano 3G was a bit of a gamble for me =)

Can I use windows Me/98 with my ipod nano and I need itunes help??!!

Hey!!,
Ok so I just recieved my Ipod nano today from the post man! and I want to use it with windows Me/98 is that possible?
I also downloaded the newest version of itunes and it said that "itunes requires that your computer is running windows
2000 or windows XP".Can I use a later version of itunes with me ipod nano and where can I download it from ?!
someone please help me Im dying to use my ipod nano!!

You cannot use iTunes under Windows 98/ME. For just synchronizing tracks with your iPod, you could get a third-party utility such as Anapod, Ephpod, or Xplay for handling the transfer. I haven't used any of these and I don't know if any support the new iPod nanos, so I can't make any recommendations. These applications cannot connect to the iTunes Music Store, so unless you upgrade, you won't be fully supported and will not be able to purchase tracks from the iTMS.
I strongly suggest you consider upgrading your version of Windows, though. Windows ME is no longer supported by Microsoft and it's going to get harder and harder to find applications that will work under 95/98/ME.
Hope this helps.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

I am trying to use itunes, it will not open at all, have uninstalled and downloaded new software and 64bit for windows. i have an old ipod nano from about 5 years ago. anything i can do, even to view my purchases and watch/listen to music etc?

ok i have a advent roma laptop with window 7. my itunes used to work fine, completely. every time i plugged in my ipod it was ok. recently my ipod was not working so i never bothered with itunes, however i have movies/tv prog that i purchased and would like to view them. i have an ipod nano from about 5 years ago, the problem with thet is, it switches on, but the circular control panel does nothing, all you can do is lock and unlock it - nothing else.
i tried to download new version of itunes, then uninstalled my origonal version, incase it was corrupted etc, i then again tried to down load new version and also version that is windows 64bit. still when i select the downlaod to open as son as it is finnished nothing happens. and now my desktop shortcut has dissapeared. before when it was there, id double click it, nothing, right click to open it, nothing.
im not the best technically minded but i just dont see what im doing wrong here, please help
