My ipod nano 8th gen's battery can't last more than a day. What's wrong with it?
Had my 8th gen nano for almost a year. It used to have decent charge for days because I only use it sparingly as a music player. I do use it as a watch with a TikTok but I unlock the screen only once in a while to see the time. Now the battery drains ridiculously fast in 1 day. Even with the screen off for most of the time, the next time I check the time/wake up the screen, battery gets drain by huge chunks. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
Yes, notifications are part of the problem. For more information look at at the previous posts on this problem. Yu can find some of those on the right hand side of this page under the heading: More Like This. I keep mine in airplane mode when asleep.

I just got an ipod touch from my sister yesterday which she has had since October. The battery life went for days with her but as soon as I started checking my email and adding apps the battery doesn't last more than a couple of hours. I deleted some apps but no change. I also kept my email logged in and my notifications turned on so I'm wondering if they are part of the problem. Please let me know what I should do. Thank you so much.

I am from Germany. I have a Question to the iPod nano 1st gen replacement program: Can I upgrade to Ipod touch 8GB? The new Ipod nano Generation is too smal for my hands
Hello! Not a problem, because you will get a Ipod Nano 1st generation as a replacement, not a new / latest generation.

My ipod nano 2nd gen is showing the apple?support sceen...What do i do?
my ipod nano 2nd gen is showing the apple?support sceen...What do i do?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this. -

How long will a 5 year old iPod Nano 3rd gen's battery last?
Hello,
I am thinking about buying a used mint green iPod Nano 3rd gen off of ebay. I was wondering how long the battery would last?
Thanks,
themizi found this from another user and it worked for me!
I had the exact same problem about 10 minutes ago. I was freaking out because I'm going on vacation soon and I was getting all worked up because none of my three power sources were charging it and it wasn't even turning on at all. Mine is also refurbished.
I called Support and the automated phone person gave me these steps:
1. Plug the iPod into the computer
2. Set it down on a flat surface
3. Take index fingers and hold menu and center button for about 5 seconds (it actually took me 20 seconds)
It then connected to the computer and turned on. I don't know why trying to reset it normally didn't work but try this and I hope it helps!! -
It shows nothing other than white screen, what's wrong with my ipod nano.
my ipod nano shows white screen when it's turning on and could not be turn off, it do not respond to any button i press. there is not sign of battery charging as well when i connected it to the USB port. what's wrong with it?

I have purchased a iPad mini online from the Apple store. Since day one I had 2 issues with it. First is that the battery life doesn't last more than 5-6h active usage, and the second one is with the wi-fi. It works properly but after I leave it for a while in sleep mode and try to reuse it, it doesn't want to open a web page or app store or mail (anything connected with the internet search) but it shows that is properly connected with my home network. So I have to turn off the wi-fi connection and turn it on again so it start to work properly. After couple off days this becomed very annoying so I contacted the support via phone and they gave me instructions for return it and that I'll receive a new one without aditional fee. I get the second device in the predicted time but again I have the same issues with the wi-fi and battery life. I will be pleased if someone from the Apple expert team explaine to me what should I do, because I dont find it for normal what is happening. On the Apple official site under the specifications for iPad mini it says that the battery lasts for at least 10h and the wi-fi problem isn't mentioned anywhere. Thanks in advance.
This is a user to user forum. No one here is an employee or representative of Apple.
If you want someone from Apple to explain what you should do make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one near you and take your iPad there and talk to Apple. If no Apple store is close enough then call Apple to find out what your alternatives are. There is a Contact Info link at the bottom of every page in this forum. -
Can on use more than one hard drive to backup with time machine ?
Can one use more than one hard drivewith time machine ?
Yes, if you have the Mountain Lion operating system installed on the Macs that you want to back up.
I don't know what the maximum number of hard drives might be, but I have tested with 4 and it works fine. Time Machine automatically rotates the backups when you do this, so drive #1 will be backed up first, then #2, #3, etc. and then back to #1, etc. -
TS4062 I purchased a used iPod Nano 4th Gen. I can't get it to sync on my new iTunes download
I bought this iPod Nano 4th Generation in perfect condition, as a gift to my mother-in-law. I had been used once. I've downloaded a new version of iTunes onto her computer and added a music library from her CD's. I cannot the iPod it to accept the new data. It LOOKS like it's synching but the new data from iTunes is not transferring over onto the iPod. It's as though this used Nano is locked or something. Does anybody have any ideas of what I can do? Thank you in advance to all you brainy types!
Thanks Chris CA.
In the Gen 4 they offer "Settings" then "Reset Settings" Then it asks, "Do you want to reset your iPod?" I click on "reset" but then nothing resets. :-( This is what makes me think it might be locked or something.... -
Can anyone help me keep my iPod Nano from shutting itself down after 2-3 minutes on battery power? It works fine when connected to a power source.
Thanks,
GeorgeTry here to fix it. I doubt that you will ever find out why it did that.

My iPod Nano will not sync ratings to iTunes if more than one playlist is played
When I try to sync my iPod back to my computer it will only take song ratings I've changed if I only played music with one playlist. If I've played more than one it doesn't transfer them and just acts if they never existed. Why is this?
If you honestly did not damage the iPod, the broken screen should be covered under warranty. Do you live near an Apple Store?
