My ipod nano 7th gen no longer shows "Playlists" in the music menu. No changes made other than deleting one and adding one playlist to those synced. Synced fine in late February. Not working as of 3/7/2014.

I would either say that the iOS is correpted due to a software glitch or y have have a hardware problem like bad memory locations that are corrupting the iOS.
- Restore from backup via iTunes. This will install a fresh copy of the iOS. See:                                                
iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.   This will elimate corruptin in the backup causing the problem.          
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Ipod nano 3rd Gen no longer shows in iTunes devices, any ideas?

    This ipod operates fine but when I connected it to iTunes (latest version) on my iMac it doesn't register as a device so I can't sync etc. Connecting an iPad DOES show up in iTunes devices.
    The above problem appeared in Ox Snow Leopard and in just installed Mountain Lion.
    Any help would be much appreciated

    The latest version of iTunes may hide the sidebar.  To show the sidebar, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    With the sidebar visible, does your iPod appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES?

  • After the latest update my iPod nano 7th gen only plays/shows 261 of 849 songs from my main playlist, but they're definitely all on it.

    I have a favorite playlist, where're all songs in I rated with 5 Stars. It's 849 songs big. After the latetst update (1.0.3) the count under the playlist's name on the iPod says there're only 261 songs in and when I scroll through, the list really ends way too early.
    But if I use the iPod's tab "Songs" I can find every song that's synced with the iPod, even the missing songs from my favorite list.
    Also under the tab "on this iPod" on iTunes the favorite list seems complete.

    Oh, Bluetooth also daoesn't work anymore!
    Thanks for this great update, that causes problems where everything worked fine before!

  • Everytime I turn my ipod nano 6th gen on it automaticLly goes to the music tab please

    Title says it all thanks!

    Is your iPod configured to sync photos?  If so, try disabling the syncing of photos and see if the error message goes away.
    Anything change with your iTunes library since the last time the Nano was able to successfully sync?

  • IPod Nano 7th Gen. & Nike App

    Good morning friends,
    I am interested in purchasing an iPod Nano 7th Gen. for the fitness app but I have some queries - I've checked online and am a little more confused then when I started.
    I understand that the Nike Fitness App doesn't need the shoe sensor in order to work.  This is the main reason I am interested in purchasing the product; however, in the store the personnel indicated that the shoe sensor is required.  I investigated this a little and now I am of the understanding that you can use the app without the shoe sensor for walking/running, but that having said sensor makes the app more efficient/accurate.
    Could someone clarify this for me, and indicate which are the functions when having the iPod only or having the iPod + shoe sensor?
    Thanks so much in advance!

    Hello,
    I have the ipod nano 7th gen. I use it without the sensor and it works fine. It is quite accurate. I have tested it by running around my neighborhood and then compared my run  to Google Maps and it was pretty close. After each run, you can calibrate your distance. This will make your runs even more accurate.

    The iPod's screen indicates that the iPod is connected? 
    In Windows, the iPod will not appear as removable storage, unless it is set in iTunes to Enable disk use.  By default, it is NOT set to Enable disk use.
    In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  When the iPod is connected, it should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  It does not appear there?

    If your iPod Nano is no longer recognized in iTunes after a recent system upgrade, you may find the following article helpful (apologies if you have already seen it):

  • Playlists will not sync onto iPod nano 7th gen

    Since the very beginning of iPods, I subscribe to a number of podcasts that refresh in iTunes automatically. Once a day I transfer the "recently added" podcasts to a created playlist for my daily listening. This allows me to cull out music downloads from the pure podcast list. Since "podcasts" have been separated as an app, iTunes made it difficult to accomplish this. With iTunes 12 and my current iPod 7th generation, I can find no tip that will allow me to continue the practice. I want a continuously playing playlist of the most recently downloaded subscribed podcasts that can easily be refreshed and transferred to my iPod nano 7th gen at the end of each day.

    There is no Apply button there, until you change something.  Until you make a change to a setting on that screen, the button (where the Apply button is located) says Sync.
    It is somewhat difficult to understand what you are describing.  The Recently Added playlist is a smart playlist.  It comes "pre-installed" with iTunes.  However, if you right-click on it and select Edit Smart Playlist, you will see that the two rules for populating it are
    Date Added - in the last - 2 - weeks
    Genre - is not - Podcast
    Therefore, if that is the playlist you are referring to, it intentionally excludes podcast episodes.  If you want a new smart playlist that lists podcast episodes downloaded in the last two week, you can start with the Recently Added playlist.  Don't modify that playlist.  Right-click on it and select Duplicate.  Name it (the duplicate) something like "Recently Added Podcasts" (or whatever you want).  Right-click on it and select Edit Smart Playlist.  Change the rules so that they are
    Date Added - in the last - 2 - weeks <- You can change the number of weeks as desired.
    Media Kind - is - Podcast
    NOTE:  I suggest using Media Kind instead of Genre, because it more accurately identifies items that are podcasts.  Something can be a "podcast" without Genre set to Podcast.  But everything iTunes shows as a podcast MUST have Media Kind set to Podcast.
    That new smart playlist ONLY shows all podcast episodes downloaded in the last two weeks.  You can then sync that playlist, if you want them all, or use it as the source to manually update your "daily podfest" playlist, and then select that playlist on the iPod's Podcasts screen (as described in my previous reply).

  • Why does my replacement iPod nano 7th gen not sync?

    I've just got a replacement iPod nano 7th gen after my last one was faulty (suddenly having white screens etc) - exact same model type. I've charged it, and when I put the new replacement iPod in the computer it makes the regular sound to let me know its recognised the iPod. The iPod shows the 'connected - eject before disconnecting' sign so that part of it seems to be working.
    I then go to devices looking to sync the music into my new iPod and then when I do that the 'Sync' button is grey and will not let me progress to sync. This is the problem I am having and I need help.
    Let me know if you need any more information, thank you.

    I am a UK resident btw If that helps.

  • IPod nano 7th gen not charging

    I recently got an iPod nano 7th gen 16GB slate. Whenever I plug it into my MBP using the new connector, I get the PLUG in the battery icon instead of the usual lightning. When I finally unplug the iPod after keeping it plugged in for quite a long time, it seems like I didn't charge my iPod at all (all I get in the battery icon is a red line).
    Is there something wrong with the battery or the cable??

    Whilst charging make sure your iMac doesnt go to sleep and try to make sure itunes is constantly open whilst connected. If this does not work try restarting the device by holding down both the home button and slep button down.
    Hope this helps

  • Am trying to sync my ipod nano 7th gen. i get this message: not enough access privileges."

    i am trying to sync my ipod nano 7th gen with my music on the cloud, via a desktop PC.
    I have successfully done this in the past.
    now I am getting a series of messages: "not enough access privileges"
    have reset the nano and also downloaded latest iTunes software.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    I'm having a very similar problem, so I was excited to see the link above. But when I click on it, it redirects me to the nike.com main website (I'm assuming Nike redid their website since the above link was posted). Could you please point me to that article somewhere else or tell me how you fixed your problem?
    My exact problem is this: I was running until recently with my iPod Nano 6th gen and the Nike+ sensor kit (sensor that goes in the Nike+ shoe plus receiver that goes in the iPod Nano). When I would sync my Nano with iTunes (I would have the "Automatically send workout data to nikeplus.com" option checked), all was well with this set-up as far as syncing my stuff to the Nike+ website goes.
    I recently realized that for the iPod Nano 6th generation, the sensor/receiver combo is not required anymore. So I ran two runs without the receiver. I kept the sensor in the shoe though as nowadays I mostly run with my recently purchased Nike+ Sport GPS watch and I like to have the sensor in the shoe in case the GPS signal gets lost at some point during a run. Anyway, those two runs that I ran without the receiver won't sync to my nikeplus account. I can see them in my iPod Nano's history and I can see one of them (the latest one) on the Nike + iPod tab of iTunes when I sync my Nano. The difference though is that on iTunes this latest run appears under a "Sensor 1" selection, whereas all my previous runs with both the sensor and receiver would be under "Nike + Sensor" selection. Within the "Nike + Sensor" selection, under nikeplus.com, there's the "Automatically send workout data to nikeplus.com" option and below it a Login ID that shows my Nike+ website log-in info. Within the "Sensor 1" selection, the Login ID is missing. I've tried renaming "Sensor 1" to something else but it didn't make the Login ID appear.
    Thank you for reading this and any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Best,
    Dimitris.

    When I connect my iPod nano 7th gen. to my computer and open itunes, there is a message that says the iPod could not be detected. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.
