My first generation ipod nano freezes on language menu. All a can do is reset it

Hi!
My 1st generation ipod nano froze today on the menu.
I've resetted it holding the select and menu button and i've restored it from itunes a few times.
Now it freezes on the language menu. It's like the wheel and select button don t work anymore, though they work when i reset the ipod.
I also reinstalled itunes and updated itunes and the ipod OS.
Same issue.
Anyone has an idea?

Wait, you guys even censor the word "he_ll"??? It's not even an innapropriate word!

A friend told me that if I give my first-generation iPod nano can renew it, that's true?

please respond quickly

What are you talking about? You can't "renew" an iPod. You also cannot trade it in to Apple. Apple will recycle it for you and give you a 10% discount on the purchase price of a new one.

Hello! I have a first generation Ipod Nano!

Hello! I have a first generation Ipod Nano! Unfortunately he is not working as it used to, in this regard, I would like to clarify: Can I change it at the official Apple store, a new one? If so, how much will it cost? (no money to buy a new Ipod, and I would like to change to the new surcharge).
In advance, thank you!

At an Apple Store they will give you 10% off the price of an new one if you recycle your old one.
But if you have a 1st Generation iPod you need to go this route: http://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano_replacement/

Do all first generation ipod nano's prebuffer the next track?

do all first generation ipod nano's prebuffer the next track?
have they always? the first gen that is.
what i mean by prebuffer is does the firmware load the next track in memory as the current track is being played ?

As far as I know, the flash memory used in the nano is one big buffer.
It doesn't work like hd based iPods where the songs are pre-loaded into a 32mb (or 64mb) buffer and played from there.

I have two iPods, one from the fourth generation and another one that must be from the first generation iPod nano. Can I trade them both in?

I have two iPods, one IPod touch from the fourth generation and another one that must be from the first generation iPod nano. Can I trade them both in?
The Fourth generation- 16GB
First generation-4GB

Apple does not have a "trade in" program for iPods, other than the recycling program that gives you a 10% discount on a new iPod (at an Apple Retail Store).

There are some third-party (non-Apple) companies that provide compensation for old iPods. You can also sell them yourself on eBay.

I have the first generation ipod shuffle. I was wandering if apple can still fix them.

I have the first generation ipod shuffle. I was wandering if apple can still fix this ipod. please let me know.

Considering the cost for a new current gen shuffle, I don't think it will be an economical repair. That USB connector is connected to a very thin ribbon cable that runs up the shuffle inside the case. If its USB connector came off and is lost, that means the ribbon cable got torn off. So the shuffle will need to be disassembled and a new part (USB connector with its ribbon cable) installed. And that's significant labor.
However, if you are good at fixing small things

I've done it before. You'll need to acquire a broken iPod shuffle 1st gen, but one that has a working USB connector. That's the most common failure for these iPods, so make sure it is described as being recognized by the computer/iTunes or something like, "It works but the battery is dead."

My 4th generation ipod nano is stuck on the apple screen even after i reset it

My 4th generation ipod nano (the nano chromatic) is stu ck on the apple screen, i tried to restore it by putting it in disk mode like apple support stated but its not showing as connected in iTunes, everytime i reset it, it just shows me the apple logo and nothing else, my warranty has long expired and i need my ipod so please help !

I assume by a reset you mean holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear correct? Keep in mind this may take a number of tries.
If that doesn't work, try connecting your iPod touch to your iTunes library in Restore Mode using the instructions from this Apple support document.

First Generation Ipod Nano gives error message when using Windows Vista

I have a dual boot PC running XP Home and Vista Home Premium. My three kids have Ipod Nanos. Each kid has their own user profile on the PC. The later generation Nanos (2) work with Vista perfectly.
The first generation Nano causes an error message when you connect the Ipod to the PC while running Vista. If you run the XP and associate the Nano with XP everything syncs perfectly with no error messages.
Conclusion: Early Nanos work with XP, but do not function properly with Vista.
Request of Apple INC. - Fix this to work with Vista, or send me a new Ipod free of charge.

All of the following programs should work with Vista.
Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
SharePod is also freeware.

Restore your ipod nano software using latest updater and see if that helps. Good luck

The replacement for my first generation iPod Nano is not detected in iTunes.

I've barely used this Nano that I've received as a replacement and now it isn't recognized by either Windows or iTunes. The website states that the warranty has expired on this unit. If this is the type of quality that is to be expected from your products, I don't even know if it is worth trying to obtain a repair under warranty. Hopefully, this comes to the attention of someone who is able to do something about it. I like your designs, but the quality needs to match as well. Thank you for your time.

You aren't speaking to Apple when using these forums. All of us here are only fellow users like yourself. As to your issue, have you worked through all of the suggestions here? If not it would be a good place to start.

Also, when I go on to safari, another alert pops up that safari cannot verify the identity of the website, anything that I type in to as common as google.com. It gives me 3 options to either cancel, look at details, and continue. I've looked at the details of the website of Google and it is legitimate the site. Any help?

1st Generation iPod nano won't sync

I've had my first generation iPod nano since April of 2006, and I've only had pretty minor problems with it.
Last year I hooked up my iPod to a new computer, and synced my music just fine. The next day when I tried to add new songs, it deleted my entire library. I restored the factory settings and bought new songs.
Last week I used my sister's external hard drive to put some of her music on my iPod, and it accepted them and kept working fine. A few days ago I tried to add more music from her xHD onto my iPod, and ended up with an error message like this:
"your iPod is corrupted and needs to be either restored to factory settings, or disconnected and reconnected."
I removed and re-connected my iPod, and it deleted all the songs I had acquired off of the xHD. Now when I try to add music it says, "Attempting to copy to the disk has failed. Unknown error occurred (-69).
How can I add more music to my iPod? I really don't want to reset my iPod just because it has so much valuable music and it's already cost me so much to acquire this much. It's only synced with one computer, and unfortunately my computer doesn't have a CD burner.
PLEASE HELP!

Is your sisters xHD connected to your PC permanently? I suspect not, and I also suspect that your iTunes install isn't set to copy the files over when you add new music to iTunes.
You need to go into your iTunes settings and tell it to keep your music library organized ( it will copy all the music to your default directory) and to copy music when adding to your library.
Otherwise it just makes a pointer to where the music is when you add it, and if that is an external hard drive it won't be able to sync when that drive isn't connected.
You don't need to burn to back-up your music - resetting your Nano won't delete the music from your hard drive. But, you should copy it to either an xHD or another location on your HD as a temporary measure.

Why does my 16gb 6th generation ipod nano skip and stutter during playback?

Why does my 16gb 6th generation ipod nano skip and stutter during playback?

Try a hard reset first.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button
until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo appears after a few seconds,
and then the Home screen.
If that doesn't work, try a restore of the device in iTunes.
Otherwise, does this skipping and stuttering only happen with certain tracks? What format are these tracks in and where they come from (outside of iTunes or from the iTunes store itself)?
