    Did you uninstall iTunes and all other Apple related software using the instructions in this Apple support document?

  • IPod nano 6th generation no longer synching runs to Nike+

    Just got a pop-up when I connected my iPod nano (6th generation) that stated something that workout data would no longer be sent to Nike+ because iTunes no longer supports pedometer devices.  I can't seem to find any details about why I can no longer synch workouts, from either Apple or Nike.
    Anyone know what's going on with this?

    I found this info on another thread and it worked for me.

    I have an Ipod nano 6 that will not connect to my computer. It still charges however. I tried a new cord. I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I reset my computer and the ipod. I looked to see if it was a problem with my usb drivers and the ipod did not show up. I have basically tried everything but restoring it. Any help is greatly appreciated

    Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
    Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
    Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

  • I downloaded audio books from overdrive media and my ipod nano 6th generation showed it was transferring why can't I find the audio books on my ipod?

    I downloaded audio books from overdrive media and my ipod nano 6th generation showed it was transferring and now I can't find it on my Ipod where would it be?

    The problem may have been in how you transfered it.  You didn't go into much detail.  Just be sure to follow the steps in the tutorial below.  Note Paragraph 5.
    Many libraries worldwide now use Overdrive Media Console, which comes in Mac an Windows versions http://www.overdrive.com/Software/omc .  Some find the mobile device transfer process confusing.  To load or delete a WMA or MP3 (Macs can only download MP3 books) audiobook onto an Apple mobile device see the "How to Transfer to a Portable Device" video in the guides at Step 7, then do the following.
    1. For Windows versions, you must first do a security update of Windows Media Player (even though you won't be using it) using Internet Explorer at http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/indivsite .
    2.  Open iTunes, plug the mobile device into the computer USB port and open the Overdrive Media Console.
    3. Highlight the mobile device in the left hand menu of iTunes and insure the "Manually manage music and videos" box is checked in the Summary Tab. If the mobile device storage is full, transfering will delete that portion of music necessary for the ebook.
    4. Highlight the book you want to transfer in the Overdrive Media Console and click the Transfer Button.   A window opens permitting you to click the boxes for parts of the book you wish to transfer.
    5. After the book has been transfered, when you click the disclosure triangle (arrow) to the left of the iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes, MP3 books will show up under the Music subsection and WMA books will show up in the Books subsection.  Once the mobile device is disconnected from iTunes, MP3 books will show up in the Songs list of the mobile device and WMA books will show up in the Books list.
    6. To remove a book from a mobile device plug the device into the USB port and open iTunes. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes so that you can see the device’s subcontents. For an MP3 book select the Music subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete.  For a WMA book, select the Book subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete.
    7. The Overdrive Media Console Guided Tour (videos) is at http://www.overdrive.com/Solutions/Libraries/tour/MenuWelcome.html .  The "Portable Devices" and "How to Transfer to a Portable Device" videos are there.
    8. To find a nearby library for ebooks search http://search.overdrive.com .  You can download the software, search for books and see tutorials without an account at the website of any library that uses Overdrive, however, you need a library card to download books.  At this library site, for example, the software and guided tour are at the bottom of the left hand menu.

  • The battery life on my ipod nano 6th generation only lasts about 2 hours.  Is this standard or should it last longer?

    The batterly life on my ipod nano 6th generation only lasts about 2 hours.  Is this standard or should it last longer?

    - When sleeping the iPod can use wifi and if it has trouble connecting it will keep trying and drain the battery.  I leave mine in airplane mode when sleeping. Otherwise it is frequenlty drained like you see on yours.
    - The rapid drop whe playing vido seems to indicae that something is wrong.
    - If your iPod is defective and under warranty, Apple will give you a refurbished one of the same model.

  • Adding photos from iphoto to ipod nano 6th generation

    I want to take photos from iphoto (mac os x 10.6.8) and put them on my ipod nano 6th generation.  I can't find anything on itunes that mentions photos and my ipod doesn't show up in iphoto or applications.

    Thanks. I followed through with those instructions. Now when I go to sync, I don't want everybody else's music to show up on my ipod.  How do I sync? And if I check sync only checked songs, will it sync ALL checked songs? We have alot of songs, but I don't want all of them.  How can I manually sync?
    Thanks!

  • My ipod nano 6th generation will not turn on.

    My iPod nano (6th generation) will not turn on. I have charged it (attached to my computer) for 30 minutes. I have tried to reset it (held down Wake and Volume Down for 8 seconds)- no response. I have factory restored it (through iTunes)- no response. It shows up as connected to my computer and will sync in iTunes, but the display on the iPod will not turn on. Any ideas?

    Hey s.mccarter2010,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you have tried a lot of things and the iPod still will not turn on. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iPod won't turn on
    If you have tried the solutions above and iPod still won't turn on, check the following:
    Make sure iPod is the only device in your FireWire or USB chain. Disconnect everything but the mouse, keyboard, and your iPod, then see if it will turn on.
    Make sure you are using the FireWire or USB cable that came with your iPod, and that the cable is in good condition.
    Try connecting iPod to the built-in port of a different computer to see if that works. Note: If using a portable computer, make sure it is plugged in to a power source and that the lid or display is open. If the lid is closed the computer may go into either standby, sleep, or hibernation mode and iPod will not charge properly.
    If you still can't turn iPod on after performing these steps, it may need to be repaired. You can arrange for repair at the iPod Service Website.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Issue with Ipod Nano 6th Generation

    Hi,
    I am currently living in Japan and managed to get an iPod nano 6th generation at the Apple Store in Shibuya. However, there are a few things that I am curious as to whether or not other users are experiencing. First, my songs are set to shuffle, and sometimes when I hit next song it will shuffle through 3 or 4 (my shake to shuffle feature is OFF). Once it gets to the song, it might show one songs cover but play a different song. Also, if a song is playing and I blank out the screen, the next song will sometimes play, but sometimes it won't at all. When I wake up the screen it appears as if the next song should be playing but it isn't. So far, this has been a little disappointing. Does this sound like a problem with the software and are others experiencing anything like this? Thanks in advance!

    What you are describing sounds like tracks that have been put on your nano that are not authorized to play them.
    First, go to itunes and sort your music by "Kind" if this column is not showing, right click and select the kind column to show up. Sort by this column and scroll down, you will most likely see some music where the kind is "Protected AAC" or something like that. If you look on your nano, you will see that the tracks that are not playing are the ones where their kind is "Protected AAC".
    If this all ends up being right, you need to reauthorize your computer to play your music. Connect your ipod, then in itunes select 'Store>Deauthorize this computer'. Then, select 'Store>Authorize this computer'. Then restore your ipod and resync all your tracks. Once you are done, they should be authorized and you should be able to play them on your ipod.

  • IPod Nano 6th Generation Volume Button Issue

    The "-" volume button on my iPod Nano 6th generation is stuck in the "on" or depressed position against the case. It looks like the button either is binding against the case, or a spring-like mechanism beneath the button is broken.
    Any ideas on how to fix the issue short of taking it in for a service appointment?  Maybe by opening the case?

    If you open it or have a 3rd party repair site work on it you will no longer be eligible for an out-of-warranty replacement from Apple at a price of $65/$75 (make a Genius Bar appointment before going.
    You can buy the switch and replace it but be sure you are up to it. Check http://www.ifixit.com for teardown instructions.
