My car charger got stuck in my iPod nano's usb/charge port.

One side releases, but the other feels jammed. I would try ripping it out, but that would risk breaking it to the point where the port is just completely broken. Can Apple fix this problem in anyway? Possibly replacing the iPod or repairing the specific part? I bought this about 2 years ago, it's the nano with the video camera at the bottom.

Ehh.. nevermind. I just ripped it out and it's fine, but if anyone knows the Apple coverage and can answer the question that'd be chill too.

  • When connecting iPod Nano to USB 2 Port it becomes very warm

    I have a new iPod Nano. I connected it to the PC via USB 2 and the iPod started to be very hot on the top of ots back (behind the screen).
    I disconnected it immediately, and tried again with another computer. I had the same problem.
    Any advice?

    My ipod nano will not play through the USB cable on my 'ipod ready' car stereo. I think it is coz my files are saved as AAC files not MP3 and thats what the stereo recongises. How do i change this, as you say in previous comments that ipod selects AAC files as a default?
    Please help, everyones else i know can play their ipod on my car stereo, just not me!!!
    Any one know what to do???

  • The volume increase button is stuck on my iPod nano (6th Generation) and I can't turn the volume up. Is there a way to fix it?

    I have the iPod nano 6th generation, and I have had it since Christmas 2011 so it isn't that old; recently I went to listen to my music and found that the volume increase button is stuck (basically it's like when you press the volume button down to increase the volume, except it is stuck down like that and won't come back up) but it was only stuck about 3/4 of the way down. For about a week this was ok, I just had to press the button harder to make it go down and increase the volume, but now it won't increase the volume at all and it feels and looks as though the button is stuck the whole way in, even when I press the button with some force. I was wondering if anyone knew how I could fix it or if I need to take it to an apple store for them to fix it?!
    Sorry if the way I have explained the problem is confusing, it's difficult to explain but it's extremely frustrating.

    This happened to me a few weeks ago.  Instead of taking it to the Apple store and paying $ the 99 service charge ( I did give Apple 139.00 13 months ago! for this ipod), I saturated the end of a q-tip w/ WD 40 and carfefully rubbed around the perimeter of the power button.  I waited a half hour and then cleaned of the excess WD 40.  This unstuck my power button.  I guess the WD 40 dissovled all the dirt under and around (also the consrtuction of the buttons is done w/ double sided tape-- maybe a design issue) the button.  A friend tried isopropyl alcohol w/ great results.  Try this before you give Appple any more $$ or get a new ipod.  It's been 6 wks. and my button functions perfectly,

  • Docking Ipod Nano to usb car stereo

    My wife purchased an Ipod nano (3rd generation) as a gift for me. I already have a generation 1 (only use it in car) and have no problem with it, this new one just WILL NOT WORK in the car, does anybody know why & how this can be resolved? NB - I connect it via the stereos built in USB socket.

    Nano 3G only works with USB 1.1 and 2, the older ones used to work with USB 1.0 and that is probably the explanation for what you are seeing. Apple's compatibility table doesn't show that USB 1.1 works, but I know by experience, my PC has both.
    Of course I don't know what kind of port your car stereo has, so I might be wrong.

  • How to fix line of stuck pixels on ipod nano 4g?

    Last week a vertical line of stuck grey pixels have been showing across the screen of my ipod nano 4g. None of the ipod's functions appear to be affected, but I was still wondering if there was a way to fix it because it's very noticable.

    You can go to a Apple Store and ask them the question, perhaps, they can repare it.

  • IPod nano 2nd generation/UBS ports

    I bought my brother an ipod nano and after several weeks of it working correctly, we've encountered a very odd error. My brother loaded a few songs on the iPod one night and after disconnecting it from his computers UBS ports it froze. I was able to reset it for him but after resetting it, will no longer work on his computer. The USB port does not read the connector or the iPod itself.
    The iPod works perfectly fine on my computer and my father’s computer as well. I've got the most recent version of iTunes on all three computers. My question is could this possibly be a problem with the iPod or my brother's UBS ports on his CPU.

    First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
    Then try with the iPod in forced disk mode.

    Still no joy, see these.

  • IPod Nano Restore, USB Device Not Recognized. Windows XP. What to do?

    Hi,

  • Can I use my iPod Nano 2G USB connection cable with iPad 2?

    The connection cable for my iPod Nano 2G looks almost the same as the connection cable for my iPad 2, the only obvious difference being that the iPod cable has a bigger plug with press-in release buttons.
    Is it possible to use either cable with either device, or is each cable device-specific?
    TIA

    You should be able to use this cable without any problems.

  • I just got a new used iPod nano 6th gen and I registered it, but it will not sync. I had an exsisting iPod nano that I no longer have, but I do have itunes on my computer. When I try and sync it, it flashes 'syncing' then stops. Help please!

    I have looked all over itunes for help, please help me figure this out. I just want to sync the music from my itunes accout from my old iPod onto my new one that I got off of ebay. I have registered it but it will still not work. Is there anything I can do? Should I call Apple? Can I reregister it? Is there some other way for me to connect it to my account? Please help me:(

    The ! sign before the song means that the actual song is no longer on your computer and/or iTunes library.

  • My computer no longer recognizes my 7th Gen iPod Nano. "USB Device not recognized." What can I do to fix this?

    Hi!
    So here's what happened: My nano has been working just fine. I plugged it in this morning to my computer, and it automatically turned on, but instead of charging, it went to play music. I turned it off. However, it did not switch to charging mode. So I unplugged it, and then I plugged it back in. "USB Device not recognized." My iPod won't turn on anymore, and my computer simply does not recognize the nano.
    It may have gotten slightly damp yesterday as it rained a bit when I was walking home (though I kept it covered). When I got home, it proceeded to work for another two hours after that--then I turned it off. And this morning? It doesn't work, as described above.

    Try cleaning the connector on the bottom of the phone. Use a magnifying glass to see what is stuck inside, a dry toothbrush and/or wood or plastic toothpicks (nothing metal). If that doesn't resolve the problem your phone is broken.

  • Second Gerneration iPod Nano and USB 1.1

    Hello,
    I have read in other feeds that the second generation Nano is compatable with USB 1.1. Is this correct? If yes, will I need extra charger or something to charge the battery?
    Thanks, John Heyne

    i can't see why it wouldn't work, although downloading to the ipod could be a bit slow
    but apple does state that a computer with usb 2.0 is a requirement... http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/specs.html
    a decent 6-pin usb port will charge the ipod, but some computers only supply low current on their usb ports, this might mean waiting a long time to charge the ipod, really you can only try it and see how it goes
    there are add-on usb 2.0 adaptors available for many computers, so that could be the answer if you find your computer's port is no good
