  • HT1363 My ipod nano 3rd generation appears to be in disk mode, I've tried to reset it per instructions, but it will not reset

    My ipod nano 3rd generation appears to be in disk mode and it will not reset. can anyone help

    Try to reset it more than once if necessary.  By a reset, I assume you mean, toggling the hold switch on and then off, then pressing and holding both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear right?
    If nothing else, you'll need to let the iPod's battery fully drain.

  • IPod Nano (6th gen.): White Screen saying "OK to disconnect." when not connected.

    My 6th Generation iPod Nano (Dopi is his name) took an unfortunate ride through my washing machine a few weeks back (one of the draw backs of it being so small and lightweight... it can sometimes elude the quick pre-laundry pocket check). At first, it was okay. I immediately threw it into a ziploc bag full of rice to pull all the moisture out of it. The screen was a little blotchy for a while, but it eventually seemed to work out all the kinks and was back to full operation within 12 hours. I was using it fairly regularly after that for the next couple days with no issues.
    A few days later, my iPod was getting low on fuel and had a "Connect to Power" screen on it. So I plugged it into my iMac, and everything was working fine, I started to manage some playlists in iTunes while it charged, and that's when I noticed the screen was odd.  Instead of the usual "Do Not Disconnect" screen that I'm used to, the screen had an all-white background, with a black "Do Not Disconnect." message on it.  I thought it was odd. But I ejected it, and it said "Ok to disconnect." with a black checkmark. Same white background, black text. (also a black battery life icon in the top right corner)  I disconnected, and it just told me to connect to power, again.
    Finding that weird, I let the iPod's power completely drain, figuring that would fix the issue. It did not.  As soon as I plugged it back in, the white screen came back.  I let it power up to full, and after I eject and disconnect it, the "OK to disconnect" screen comes back, even after I've disconnected, and it stays there.  I can't operate anything on it. 
    I've tried everything I know how to do:  I've let the power drain, and recharged to full. I've tried resetting it. I tried restoring it to factory settings. And I tried to reset it and put it into disk mode, but the black and white "OK to disconnect." screen comes back before I can even get it into disk mode.
    Before I restored to factory settings, I could still manage all the files on my iPod. I could add songs, remove them, make playlists and everything when I had it connected to iTunes, I just can't do anything with the iPod itself. So, my little Dopi is in a coma right now. He's still alive, he just won't wake up.  I don't want to pull the plug on him. 
    Any suggestions?  Anyone else have this problem?
    It's not easy for me to get to an Apple Store, so I thought I'd try this before I take it to any geniuses.

    my ipod nano4th gen will not download the purchased songs in itunes v11.  Just upgraded to mac 10.6.8-won't synch new songs since this upgrade.  The ipod is seen in the itunes as the devise, and the nano screens says synching when plugged into the macmini usb port, but the itunes window does not say it is synching like it has before so whats the culprit? Techno virgin in distress! 
    PS - I added an iphone5 which is whay these upgrades happened so this synching to the ipod error is since the iphone began synching.

    I just learn in some post that the most common lapses in syncing is not checking if "sync music" in music section of the ipod is ticked. So double check if it is. Cheers!

    Be good to know what the diagnostic results are.
    I've also just run into an issue where I couldn't restore an iPod with a corrupt file system, and the "super fix" in that linked article wasn't working for me. I've run across a potentially useful workaround.
    iPod Classic went on the fritz today just after syncing. Couldn't restore via iTunes, kept getting 1439 errors, Windows wouldn't format as FAT32, claimed the "Volume is too big for FAT32". Finally tracked down EaseUS Partition Master Home Edition (Free) and formatted as FAT32 with 128k clusters. The iPod is filling back up again. Might be worth a shot here...

  • Ipod Classic screen say connect to restore???

    Ipod Classic screen say connect to restore but when I do so it just goes into do not disconnect screen and computer wont recognize it at all
    I tried everything possible, I reseted it multiple times. try hard disk wont work. tried connecting it wont work. it is just usually stuck in the apple logo screen until it tells me to connect to restore and then after that it goes into Do not disconnect and then after a while it just say OK to disconnect but nothing else happens. HELP PLEASE

    Since you stated
         I tried everything possible
    Most likely your iPod hardisk is giving problem, bring it in to Apple store if it is under warranty, else
    do the Disk Diagnostic as posted by tt2.
    It wont fix your problem, but the report will help in troubleshooting.

  • Ipod nano screen completely messed up

    I've noticed recently that my Ipod nano screen has become totaly messed up, i can only see the top half of it,where it says Music, Photos, etc. and even that is all deteriorated,whilst the bottom almost look's like a barcode. Although i can still listen to music, volume is inacessible.
    Could some one please help me on this, i just got this recently by winning it from a local radio station and I dearly love it, help would be appreciated.
    PS: this is not something physicly on the screen or the result of a scratched screen, it's the actual inside, where the song information etc. is viewed.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • My ipod nano 4th generation only works when it is plugged into the computer; otherwise, the screen turns black and it is completely unresponsive to any efforts such as pushing buttons, reseting, etc. What should I do?

    Sounds like the battery is shot and in need of a replacement.  You can have Apple replace the battery for a flat fee or you can send it into a third party repair center for a bit less.
    Not much else you can do for troubleshooting this one.

  • Ipod nano screen

    Can anyone please tell me - ( I have spent many hours on the apple website looking for contact details of a real person; but no good )- what to do with my IPod Nano screen that does not work. It is not cracked but is very bright, unreadable and seems to have gibberish on it.
    I have tried the RESET trick but can see nothing on the screen.
    I live near DUBAI and nobody will talk to me about the problem. I won the thing in a competition last December and it only worked for a few weeks.
    Please help me Obeonekinobe, you're my only hope.

    Hi Goofy Goat,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have done some great troubleshooting for your iPod nano that is not responding. In this situation, if resetting it did not resolve, I would suggest restoring the iPod back to its factory settings and then sync your content back onto it from iTunes. Please use the following article as a resource for restoring.

  • IPod nano 4Go keeps conecting and disconnecting

    Hi, my iPod nano 4Go kept connecting and disconnecting from the main unit(threw USB2 cable), then it started booting other and other again. What kind of a problem is this? Now the batteries are empty... (the iPod is 4 months old).
    Ercorr.

    My 80 GB iPod Classic is having the same problem -- when I connect it to the computer, it syncs as it should and then when I attempt to disconnect it, it starts syncing again. It does this no matter whether I disconnect through iTunes or through the desktop (i.e., dragging the iPod icon to the dock to eject it). This never happened before a software update last week. I forget the update but it was something to do with the Intel processor, I think. My date and time was also screwed up but when I woke up this morning that was finally ok.
