My headphones will no longer fit in my iPod nano, is it broken?

I recently went to listen to my iPod nano and I went to put in my earphones and they would not fit into the jack in the ipod.  I had listened to my iPod (with the headphones) a couple days earlier, and it had been in a safe place, where it wouldn't get banged around.  Is the iPod broken? Any suggestions of what it could be?

The headphone jack on the newer 6G Nanos is a bit tighter compared to previous generations.  It requires a bit of extra force to get them to fully insert.  You should hear a sort of popping/clicking when inserting the headphones letting you know the plug has been fully seated.

    Are you sure your iPod Classic is configured to sync podcasts to your device?  You'll want to double check by taking a quick look at your iPod's Podcast configuration tab in iTunes.
    To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes when it appears to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab. Now locate the Podcasts tab and select it.  Under this tab you can configure how and what podcasts are synced to your device. If you make any changes, be sure to click theApply button in the lower right hand corner.

  • Games I bought years ago, Texas Holdem and iQuiz will no longer transfer to my iPod Classic. They show in my computer "Apps" but they won't transfer. They no longer show that they can be "Re-Downloaded" from "Previously Purchased" they don't exist there.

    The third generation iPod classic does not support BT.
    If you meant the 3G iPod touch thenyou need a pair that supports:
    Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)
    Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP)
    iOS: Supported Bluetooth profiles

  • Are AASPs allowed to charge customers that will qualify for the 1st Gen iPod nano recall?

    Are AASPs allowed to charge customers that will qualify for the 1st Gen iPod nano recall? There are no Apple stores in the Philippines, only AASPs. Early reports from customers claim that one of the AASPs is charging a 10% discounted price for the replacement. We need clarification from Apple if the AASPs are allowed to do this since this seems counter to what the replacement program is supposed to do. I will not name the AASP for now until I personally confirm the reports.

    There are no Apple stores in my country either, i went yesterday to one of those AASP but they didnt charge me or said anything about a price, just checked the screen, wheel and frame i guess to see if there was anything broken because they didnt turn it on. Confirmed the serial number, gave me a receipt and told me to come back in six weeks with the receipt to get my ipod back. I dont think they are supposed to charge you

  • Itunes in Windows XP no longer recognizes my device (ipod nano 2)

    My ipod nano 2 is no longer recognized as a "device" on my Windows XP & in i-tunes. I have downloaded most recent version of i-tunes and of Mozilla Firefox to no avail.  I have used 3 different connection cables between ipod & computer to no avail.  Any suggestions that will help me in getting my "device to be recognized so I can update and xfr music thathas been purchased? Also, I am more of a computer novice & hope this doesn't get too technical.  Thank you...

    liquidsun,

    Have you tried using other ports to connect the iPod?
    Have you tried resetting the iPod with it connected to the computer?

  • Computer crashed...lost itunes...what will happen if i plug my ipod nano

    I have an ipod nano (1st series) and my computer crashed, i lost my itunes and i am worried if i plug in my ipod then all the songs on it will be deleted..What should i do?

    SSolo129,
    There's an answer to your question but first it's time for a little lecture - if it makes a difference, I don't feel any better about this than you do. ; - )
    I hope you take this unfortunate situation as an opportunity to learn a very important lesson: Back up your iTunes library as soon as you can after resolving this situation because right now you are only one glitch of your iPod away from losing your music entirely.
    Many people come to the Discussions having lost their music in just such situations and, believe me, it's not a happy time for anyone.
    If you place any importance on your playlists and the data they depend on, make sure to include the iTunes Library files in your back-up regimen as well.
    Anyways, that's the lecture. The answer to your problem should be found in Zevoneer's post .
    Good Luck! But once you have the music back on your computer, remember:
    Your music is valuable - please back it up!

  • Will my computer read my new ipod nano 3rd gen?

    i just bought a new ipod nano 3rd gen from circuit city before i opened it i looked on the back and saw system requirments it says nothing about being compatible with windows xp media center edition and i have windows XP media center edition 2002 sp2. will the ipod nano 3rd gen work with my computer?

    Yes it will work fine. iTunes just needs XP and doesn't really care what sort of crazy version that came with whatever computer you bought. It is still just XP maybe configured or a little more specifically.

    p.s. This is a Tablet laptop I assume?

  • Lanyard headphones: why did apple discontinue them for ipod nano?

    i'd love to purchase the new generation of ipod nano (i need more HD space on my 2nd gen ipod nano), but i have a basic need for the lanyard style headphones. i can't bring myself to wear the old style headphones (i have many bad memories of dropping the lanyard-less ipods).
    i have never had a problem with the lanyard design in the 4+ years that i've used them. why did apple stop production?
    and, more importantly, does apple have any plans to bring back lanyard headphones in the future?
    thank you.

    Since we are all end users like you, nobody here would have the answers to such questions.  Only apple knows.  Either way, I suggest you leave feedback to Apple through one of their feedback channels.

  • TS1363 Since the latest iTunes update (on Win8 PC), none of my apple products will sync: iPhone 5; iPhone 4s; iPod Nano 6; iPod Nano 7

    The iPhones are recognized by the computer (and can backup to the cloud), but on connection, nothing happens with iTunes.
    With the iPods I get the not-very-helpful message:
    iTunes
    An iPod had been detected, but could not be identified properly.
    Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again.
    blah, blah, blah.
    On clicking More Info, I am presented with 10 steps to take.
    I have done every single one of these steps, with the following added bonuses:  each time I have carried out any of the steps, I have disconnected the device; disconnected the leads; turned off the device; I have also uninstalled iTunes and installed 'the latest version'; I have restarted the computer, connected the device with brand new cables (the iPods require two different Apple cables: have tried both old and new versions of each).
    Nothing I can do will make iTunes want to talk to these devices.  It all worked perfectly up until the latest v. of iTunes.
    I am perfectly prepared to insert a new HD into the computer, build a new version of the station (either Win8, Win7, XP .... even Vista to make my day even worse), but feel that this is a little extreeme!
    Am I alone in this Apple-strewn myre?

    I kept working at this after posting. On the sync page for the ipod on itunes library I chose to remove the iPods association with my old computer. It erased all the old content from the old computer and then put all my checked songs from the new computer on my iPod nano.

  • Will yamaha MCR 040 work with Ipod nano sixth generation?

    I am interested in buying a Yamaha micro system such as the MCR 040. There specs are not very explicit and I want to be sure that it will charge and control my sixth generation Ipod nano.
    Has anyone tried it?

    According to the product's specifications page it is stated as being compatible with the 6G Nano. This page also says so.
