My Apple iPod Nano stops playing shortly after plugging in the correct headset, but works on docking station. I've tried enabling and disabling crossfade in settings. Any suggestions?

Make sure your headphones are plugged ALL the way in, meaning the white part of the headphones is flush with the Nano and you cannot see any silver from the plug still showing.

Change the rice and dry for another couple of days. Then:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1495 I use method 3 to sync my iPad to my desktop which is used to sync my iPod nano. After I done all the steps,how will I sync the separate library to my iPad? I don't see any sync option and don't even see my iPad on the device.

My iPad is registered in a different account.im having difficulty installing iTunes on my laptop so when I read that multiple iPod,iPad etc can be sync in one computer,I tried making a separate library on my desktop which have an iTunes already.i used my desktop for my iPod nano. After following the instructions, I don't know how to sync it with my iPad now connected on my desktop.i can't see a button or option to sync. And I don't even see my iPad recognize on the device.pls tell me what am I missing. I already sign in so my desktop will be authorize.

All devices only sync what you select to sync.
If you do not want all of the music, then simply do not select all of the music to sync.

7th generation ipod nano stops tracking my runs after a minute

7th Generation Ipod Nano: when using the fitness icon and running, it pauses every minute or so and i have to physically hit resume to start again and the mileage is off. Anyone know how to fix? I can't get it to calibrate because it won't make it through a whole work out to do that.

Is an earphone or Bluetooth headphone connected to the nano?
If its an earphone you can check the earpod jack on the iPod to see if there is any lint in it.
If there is no earphone or Bluetooth headphones connected, the iPod thinks play was hit by accident and pauses it to conserve battery.

Suggestions? Ipod Nano stops every few minutes when trying to listen to ibooks

New Ipod Nano 6th generation stops every few minutes when trying to listen to ibooks! Any suggestions?

1- Go to Settings
2- General- Auto Lock
3- Change to 5 minutes or Never
It might help?

IPod Nano stops working after 1.0.2 firmware update

I just updated the firmware of my ipod nano last night to 1.0.2. I was using thru out the day when it suddenly stops playing the next music in my playlist. My ipod shows the play icon but there is no sound and the play track is not moving. Tried to play a different music and videos but the same problem occurs. Tried to reset is several times but doesn't fix the problem will try to reset the firmware later when I get home.

Just got the nano 3rd gen yesterday. Already had a Nano 1st gen. Running Itunes 7.x on windows 2000 os at work (1st gen nano used there). Needed new Nano in a hurry, so went to RShack and bought one. Ran home....Itunes says wont work with Nano 3rd gen. Went to download upgrade for Itunes, and find out the upgrade won't run unless running windows XP or VISTA.... Borrrowed a laptop with XP OS and got latest Itunes. Happy...happy...joy...joy, now I can get Itunes and new Nano to work together. Now gotta get music off old Nano and into new Nano usiing borrowed laptop. (Found a program on net called 'SimpleCenter' to do this.) Xferred music from old Nano to Itunes on laptop, then transferred entire library to new Nano. (Was out of reach of wireless network while doing this, so was unable to 'UPDATE NANO' when prompted by Itunes.)
Sooo...
Took laptop over to its owners home (and wirless network) and Updated the firmware to 1.0.2. When supposedly complete, the new Nano starts to Reset continuously (Apple Logo....Menu Screen......Apple Logo.....Menu Screen....Apple Logo etc. etc.) Oh 'darn' ........
So frustrating.... Disconnected new Nano from laptop during the couple seconds the main menu was showing.
For grins went to play the solitaire game that comes with new Nano, but comes up with error message saying it (the game) won't load. (Worked fine earlier, before the 'upgrade')
Oh Mannnn..... I find that there a 'ton' of other 3rd gen Nano usere having same problem with firmware upgrade 1.0.2.
I will wait for some response from Apple on this issue for a few weeks before I take the device back to dealer. I expect that this problem will be resolved by Apple in quick order in the form of a new firmware upgrade (or something similar). I really don't want to hassle the dealer at this time, and can live with the old Nano at least until the end of November, when I will be needing both Nanos for a special event.

IPod Nano stops playing

My iPod Nano 5g stops playing a file (after 2 hours), but it plays Ok in iTunes to the end. Latest software. Manual synch. The file is long (29 hours of audio). How can I get my iPod to play it through? (Tried restore and recopy.)

I couldn't find any documentation regarding this, but I believe the 2 hour time limit is the maximum length your iPod can play of an audio file. So you may need to break this one up if at all possible. If not, I am afraid you are out of luck.

3RD GENERATION IPOD NANO STOPPED WORKING THE SECOND I CONNECTED IT TO ITUNES TO UPDATE MY LIBRARY ... I TRIED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE AND NOTHING IS WORKING ... AND IT WAS WORKING PERFECT RIGHT BEFORE I CONNECTED TO ITUNES ... HMMM.

I DONT KNOW WHERE TO START BUT OR STARTERS LET ME JUST SAY I TOOK GREAT CARE OF MY IPOD NANO 3RD GEN AND THERE IS NO REASON ON MY PART WHY IT STOPPED WORKING... BUT IT DID STOP WORKING AS SOON AS I CONNECTED IT TO MY ITUNES LIBRARY... SO I AM A BIT SUSPICIOUS TO SAY THE LEAST... I ALSO HAVE AN IPOD TOUCH AND THAT'S WORKING JUST FINE. BUT BACK TO MY IPOD NANO 3RD GEN... WHAT THE **** IS GOING ON WITH IT

Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

Ipod Nano stalling after adding song to On-The-Go Playlist

I'm using a 2GB Ipod Nano and I just bought it less than a month ago. Ive noticed that the Ipod stalls or lags for 3 seconds whenever I do this procedure:
1:Play a song.
2: Go back to the previous menu and add a song to the On-The-Go Playlist
3: Scroll or do something else
The Nano lags for 3 seconds after I add the song to the playlist. Thinking that it is a hardware problem, I went to the Apple Service Centre and exchange for a new Ipod. The problem persists. Ive noticed that this problem is non-existent in 4GB Ipod Nano models. Is this a technical glitch? Does it happen to all 2GB ipods? Can anyone help me out please?

not on mine-i dont think but go to brokenipods.com
they will help you

IPod nano disconnects after iTunes opens

Product: iPod nano Model MC696C; OS: Windows 7 Home; iTunes new install 20150412. This is the first install of iTunes on this computer. The iPod worked fine on previous XP computer for several years. Now, when I plug in the iPod, it connects, iTunes opens, recognizes the iPod, and after a few seconds the iPod disconnects. The same thing occurs on a restart with the iPod plugged in beforehand. I need to reorganize and replace some songs on the iPod.

Recharge iPod nano 3G after each use, or wait until flat before recharging?

In order to optimise both the capacity of an iPod nano 3G battery (how long it lasts between charges) and its longevity (how long it will last before it has to be replaced) should the battery be charged up to full after every significant period of use (typically 2 hours playback in my case) or should charging not happen until the battery is flat or almost flat?
Also, does anyone have any thoughts on my other iPod nano 3G question, which is at:

Problems with iPod Nano 2G after a rainy day

Yep comrades, sh*t happens.
Today it was a very rainy day and a friend of mine was cycling to the school comfortably with his iPod Nano.
<skip>
After coming to school, his iPod goes on but the display is completely white (background lights going perfectly) and it doesn't play the music.
Switching the iPod to PC bring the lil' nano not to its life back.
please help, my friend loves his nano 2g

I assume you're saying your friend's iPod got wet during his rainy day cycling. Assuming the problem is due to water damage your friend can try letting it "dry" for several days without turning it on then seeing if they have any success. Also try going through the 5 R's. If it is indeed water damage then it's not covered under warranty, in which case your friend would either have to go through 3rd party means to see if it can be repaired or purchase a new iPod.

My Ipod nano stops playing in the middle of a song.

My brand new never been used ipod nano cant get threw one song without stopping. The screen goes black and the music stops. I have to press the power button to get it to turn back on. But I still have to press play to get the song to come back on. Its brand new why isn't it working?

Thanks for solving this basic problem. I was about to return my nano and make a fool of myself . Once again, thanks a lot planb77.
