My Ipod Nano quit shuffling on its own.

I have an IPod Nano version 1.0.3 PC. It has quit shuffling on it's own accord. I have to manually tell it next. Any ideas?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

Plug it to your computer using iPod USB Cable (any cable should work excluding iPhone 5 and Shuffle cables)...... when you see your iPod in iTunes go to that iPod and click restore...... the whole process should take (depending on what you have on your iPod and its is up to date) it should take no longer than 30 minutes...... then it will ask if you want to set up as new iPod or restore from back-up (itunes back up), since you said:
so its like new
click set as new iPod and follow through what they said.

HT1616 My Ipod Nano 6th generation loses its calibration everytime it shuts off.

My Ipod Nano 6th generation loses its calibration everytime it shuts off. It shows calibration successful each time, but after going to sleep and waking back up its says 'uncalibrated'. Do I need to return the Ipod?

I had the same problem. Someone here told me to make sure my earbuds were in securely. Push until they click in place. It solved the problem. The music still plays even though the screen goes to sleep. Hope this helps.

A few months ago i lost my ipod nano im pretty sure its in the house but i cant find it i dont have i cloud and i cant get it because i forgot what email i used what my password was and im using a new laptop now is there any way apple could look for it

so basically i want to know whether or not apple could do something to find it

There is no way to remotely track or disable an iPod nano, either for you or Apple. As it can't connect to the Internet on its own, Find my iPhone isn't available for it.

IPod classic randomly restored on its own and now wont connect to itunes..

Hey guys
So last week i sync'd my iPod Classic 80gb and everything worked fine.
I've been away for the week and have used my iPod in a couple of different speakers/car transmitters/playstation etc and they have all worked fine.
Then when I got home today, the ipod says 'connected' but doesnt come up in itunes.
However, it does come up in my computer as 'steff's ipod' and shows that there is space being used on the ipod, even though it comes up as blank when i use it.
After I unplugged this it froze and once i got it back unfrozen, everything appears to be gone.
Now whenever i plug it in nothing comes up in itunes even though it says 'connected' however when i unplug it, an error then comes up in itunes saying it cannot sync with the ipod.
The first time i plugged it in it did come up with an error saying it was corrupt.
I've tried installing windows 7 updates, and uninstalling and reinstalling itunes but now itunes just freezees once the ipod is connected to the computer.
Now something similar happened to me a while ago and ended up killing my ipod, I had to go back to Apple and they offered me a refurbished one.
However that time it didnt restore on it's own, something just went wrong and it couldnt sync, but it started with the 'corrupt ipod' message so im thinking its something with my computer that's causing this (the guy at the Apple store did say that my PC caused the problem but i dont know how!)
Any assistance would be great, I don't really feel like spending another 200 dollars on a third ipod.
Thanks!

update- now it will come up in itunes and says it detects an ipod in recovery mode and to restore it.
I do this and it says the ipod will reset and come back up in itunes when it is done, however it never comes back up and either itunes ends up freezing or the ipod does.
then after i reset the computer it goes around in circles and does all of this again

6th Gen Nano turns off on its own

My nano is turning off on its own after a few minutes of play. Any advice?

Your nano is pausing playback when the screen goes dark (Either when it goes dark on its own or when you click the sleep/wake button). The reason for this is that it is not detecting your headset. You may be able to hear music, but the headset jack is not inserted enough for the nano to detect that it is there (or something is blocking the connection). Here are your three options:
Insert the headset jack harder. Most folks find that this solves their problem. If you can see ANY of the silver of the plug when it is inserted, it is NOT fully inserted. You should feel and hear a click" when it is fully inserted.
Clean out the crud in the headset port. If you have tried #1 and it just won't insert all the way, it is likely that you have crud in your headset jack. Shine a light in there. The entire inside of the jack is white, so if it looks dark down at the bottom, there is probably crud down there. You can try blowing it out or using canned air. Just understand that shoving anything else in there to clean it out will be taking your warranty into your own hands! However, I have cleaned mine out using whatever was handy and small enough to fit in there and so far so good. Your results may vary!
Take it to the Apple store. If you have really tried with 1 and 2 and it is still happening, then there might just be something up with your headset port or your headset jack. If it is the headset jack, you can look closely at that and be pretty sure if that is the problem. Try another headset to make sure. If you have worked all the way through to this point and it is still happening, it is time to take it to the Apple store.

My ipod is skipping songs on its own and then it just stops playing all together.... any suggestions on how to fix it

i noticed that my ipod touch has been skipping songs on its own. it starts on one song then itll play the next then skip 4-10 songs then stop all together. ive tried resetting my ipod but it seems to do nothing. i need help please???

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

How can I use my Ipod nano on two of my own computers?

I have a notebook computer on which I registered(?) my Ipod nano. It does not have a dvd drive so I can not load songs into I tunes on this
computer. I have a desk top computer and have loaded my cd's onto itunes in it. I have a "family share" account with Itunes and thought I
would be able to download the songs from my desk top computer to my Ipod. It will only let after erasing the other contents on my Ipod.
Is there a way around this? Thanks

Ipod Nano Restored, iTunes says its in recovery mode

I have an ipod nano, and at first it wasn't recognized by itunes and found posts that addressed this issue. Problem was solved...
Until I plugged the ipod back in itunes then gave a message saying "the ipod is in recovery please restore befor eyou can use with iTunes". The problem is is I have the most up to date software on my ipod and have restored it, but iTunes says it is still in recovery mode.
Could someone please shed some light on this? It's possible someone else had this problem as well..
Thanks in advance

Fair enough. I'm new to the Discussion place so
thanks for the tip. Do you think iPod Rip would be
able to get music from a crashed iPod?
Depends on how crashed "crashed" is. Will it still turn on/boot up to the menu? Does Windows recognize it as a drive when you connect it?
The application is fairly small, so it shouldn't take too long to download/install it and give it a shot. I've had some problems with iPodRip and QuickTime on some computers, and rather than spend time messing with it, I tried iPodUtil instead which seemed to work. The only thing with iPodUtil is that if you use the free trial version, every so often you'll see a popup that prompts you to pay for the registration, which is recommended, especially if the software works for you. You just have to acknowledge the message (every time it appears) and it continues importing your content.

Ipod nano or shuffle for gym?? Difference?

Hey all.
I have a 60 gig ipod which I LOVE and use for travel and long trips. BUT i was just about to get a shuffle for the gym...as working out with the 60 gig can get in the way sometimes. Now that the Nano has come out though its a tough one. Which would you prefer and why? Can I randomly load songs on the nano like the shuffle? I don't need the full features of a regular ipod...so I don't know if the nano is overkill.

the mobiblu dah-1500i is not that cool. no way its cooler than a nano. maybe cooler than the shuffle.
after using a mobiblu for a couple of days here are some cons...
buttons really feel cheap and are not easy to use
screen is too short. titles scroll and that takes a long time to read
interface is pretty bad. song navigation is a nightmare. its like using windows file manager without a mouse
reading song titles while navigating is a pain.
sound quality is just awful. we compared it side by side with a shuffle, mini and regular ipod. sound level is substantially lower and flatter. need to use all the weird effects to make it sound decent.
thickness. the mobiblu volume is great. nice and small. instead of making it a cube, why not make it 3 times as long and 1/3 as thick?
proprietary cable to charge and connect. i ipod has the same problem i guess with the dock connector. but at least there are tons of people making that cable. lose your mobiblu connector and you are hosed.
so, interface lousy, sound quality lousy, too thick, buttons no good, not a real color display... yeah, its cooler than the nano. (sarcasm)

Ipod Nano and Shuffle on the same computer?

Hi guys,
I’m having a problem. I recently connected my 2nd gen nano to my friend’s computer (who has a shuffle) and it thinks I’m her. How do I create my own “account” on i-tunes?
The problem is that now she has tried to connect her shuffle to i-tunes and it’s rejecting her!
I tried a different computer and it came up with her ipod name. How do I make it all mine and reset her settings?
Thanks!!
Natalie.

"How do I create my own “account” on i-tunes?"
Create a separate Windows User account for each person on the PC. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here:
Using Windows XP User Accounts
"I tried a different computer and it came up with her ipod name. How do I make it all mine and reset her settings?"
Have a look at this troubleshooting page, changing the drive letter for the iPod might solve the confusion: iTunes may exhibit strange behavior in relation to the iPod.

Ipod nano and shuffle are not recognized by my computer or itunes

When I plug in the ipod, both the nano 6th generation and the shuffle, the device is not recognized by my computer or itunes. It will be recognized by my computer for a few seconds and then disappears. The device will show up on the right side of the screen in itunes but not on the left. The troubleshooter tells me it is a compatability issue. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, i have turned off the compatabilty mode, nothing works.

What displays on the iPods screen when you have it connected? I assume you have tried another known working USB cable?
Is iTunes up do date on your PC (currently at 10.7)?
Have you tried connecting to another PC or Mac?
