My ipod nano (the new one) is not playing songs?

I uploaded songs on it and put the ear phones in my ears and it still is not working. Plesase, how do I fix that?

The earphones must be pushed very hard into the iPod. So hard, that the white part of the plug must touch the iPod in order for the external speakers to turn off. You will hear a click.
If you do a forum search, you will find this same solution. If it does not work, you will need to take your iPod to an Apple store or call the Apple iPod tech support if still under warranty or you have Apple Care.

HT2292 I recently got a new ipod touch and the new one will not connect to itunes. I've done all the troubleshooting and now I'm just plain frustrated. With the new update my old ipod froze and best buy gave me a new one. What to do?

My ipod recenly froze with the last update. bestbuy gave me a replacement. the new one will not connect to the computer or itunes. i followed all the instructions and - nothing. It's frustrating enough as i lost all my notes and work, but now I can't connect to sync with itunes. i don't get it. i'm not a supertech so i don't know what to do. help!!!!!!

Thanks, Bob! You are correct. And, we learned this as we spoke with APPLE TECH SUPPORT by phone on Christmas day (800-APL-CARE). One of their reps spent the time to help us troubleshoot this, but the boiled down conclusion is your answer, and to repeat for the benefit of others, here is what worked:
1. With our Belkin router set to "out-of-the-box" WEP 64 bit security, we could not get wireless access of any kind. Only with the Security Mode set to DISABLED, could we gain access.
2. Changing the router's security mode setting to "WPA/WPA-2...." and entering a new min. 8 char passphrase, and then entering that same passphrase into the IPOD Touch, and restarting the router, did the trick!
Based on this, and some info found in another posting, I can only conclude that the IPODs and IPHONES do not support WEP security mode in many generic routers used by thousands of consumers. Hopefully, those same consumers can figure out how to change their wireless router setttings to WPA/WPA-2 security mode and ALSO get all their other wireless devices (PCs, laptops, WII boxes, ROKU boxes) all reconfigured to WPA mode, too.
I THINK THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT APPLE NEEDS TO ADDRESS WITH WEP COMPATIBILITY and it may also be the case that MOST CONSUMERS ARE USING WEP 64 BIT security on their home wireless routers?
In any case, it's working now, so anyone who is having problems should try changing to WPA mode and post back here if it worked for them!

My ipod touch broke then replaced it with a new one. I already dloaded iOS5 on the old one. When I connected my new unit it says it won't load the previous back because the new one is not up to date... Do I really have to download iOS5 again?

Yes, you have to update the iPod in order to retore from backup. The iOS on the "new" has to be aequal to r greater than on the iPod from which the backup was made. The iOS downloads are unique to an iDevice and model (the one for a 3G iPod will not work for a 4G iPod).

Can i change my old ipod to the new one with priceless

I have an ipod, they said ipod touch 3 8gb, they said... Now i can't do anything with this because too many apps require IOS >4.2.1
So i have a question: Can i change my old ipod to the new one with priceless.
Thanks for reading

Wow! Give us a chance!
I live in the UK (about five minutes drive from the Olympic cycle race route. Didn't you notice me waving to the cameras? ). Not far from you , but far enough away that I might be doing something else, even if the cycle race has finished. The same applies to everyone else too. I'm eight hours ahead of you, so if it's 9pm now, where you are, it's five in the morning where I am and most of us here will still be inspecting the inside of our eyelids!
Now, about your problem.
If your iPod is 8GB, then it is not a 3rd generation Touch - no matter who they are and no matter who said it was! If it has model number A1288 etched into the casing on the back, then that identifies the 2nd gen Touch. (Yes, there is a 4th gen Touch in 8Gb capacity, but still no 8GB 3rd gen - ever). The third generation is model No. A1318.
Can i change my old ipod to the new one with priceless. I don't understand what that means, unless you mean "with the price difference". In which case, the answer is "no".
Even more confusing is; Now i can't do anything with this because too many apps require IOS >4.2.1 because -
a 2nd generation Touch (including the 8GB) can install iOS 4.2.1 But that's as high as it can go. So that's incorrect!
you can still use any App that doesn't require a higher iOS than you have. So still incorrect!
you can still use it as a music player, so guess what, wrong again!
... to store your photos - you know what I'm going to say now, don't you?
... and play those videos!
So wrong, wrong and wrong!

I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?

Hello everybody,
I would like to copy all the songs from one Ipod into another. All the songs are into my Itunes account, I tried to drag and drop the songs from the old Ipod to the new one but it doesn't work. Is there a way to do it ?
I share one Itunes account with other people from my family and one person would like to keep the same songs on the new Ipod as the ones which were on the old one.
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hello Chris,
Thanks for your answer. I was hoping for an easier answer. Too bad there is no drag and drop solution, it would have been much easier.
Thanks for answering so fast.

Did you copy your actual iTunes content from your computer before reinstalling iTunes, or did you just copy your iTunes library which only contains the pointers to your songs / books locations ?
You might, depending upon your country and if they are still in your country's store, be able to redownload your music purchases and your ibooks via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage - you will need to delete the entries from your library (where you are getting the 'unable to locate' messages) before they will potentially show with the cloud icon against them in Purchased for redownloading.
Or copy them from your backup of your downloads/library and add them to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library

I accidentally created an identical email acct, how to I delete the newer one and not the old one?

entally created an identical email acct, how to I delete the newer one and not the old one? And I'm receiving e's just from the new one.

Move the "e's" (email messages?) to the old account first. You can drag and drop.
To remove an account in Thunderbird:
'''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac Tools|Account Settings]|<select the unwanted account>|'''
Down at the bottom of the left-hand pane, '''Account Actions''' then '''Remove Account'''.
Are both accounts using POP? That could explain why new messages appear in the new account but not the old.
It could help to post your Thunderbird settings data: '''Help|Troubleshooting Information'''. Clear the "Include account names" checkbox. Click on "Copy text to clipboard", then paste (ctrl+v) into your next posting here.

I recently had to get a new windows computer, old one crashed. My tech guy got all my itunes library over to the new one, and all my songs are there. However, some won't play and ask me for the password for the apple id they were purchased under. 2 of these ids are obsolete and I have no access to those accts. The songs all played on my old computer without prompting me for a password.
Any ideas how I can get around this hassle and get them all to play? We're talking about 800 songs that are being obstinate. The new computer is authorized under my "new" Apple id, which I have used for years.

Copy the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer to move iTunes content.
As for pictures, copy them from where there are on the old computer to the new computer... this has nothing to do with iTunes.
Alternatively, if both computers are Windows based, use the Windows Easy File Transfer Utility to move everything.

I lost my ipod i bought i new one...i just wanna know if i can still recover all the songs i bought and downloaded from my lost ipod to the new one..if i can how will i do that since i downloaded everything and bought in my ipod not in my computer

i lost my ipod and i just bought a new one...i just wanna know if i can still recover my downloads from my lost one to the new one since i bought and downloaded all the songs through my ipod and not through computer..if i can, how can i do that?

Nope.
Apple recomends after each purchase to BACKUP your purchases. If purchased on a mobile device (iPhone, iTouch, iPod, etc) you should transfer your purchases to a computer running iTunes as soon as possible to back them up.
If you don't have your items in your library, I'm afraid there is little recourse.
Hope you did not loose too much.

How can I transfer my playlists from the old ipod to the new one

how can I transfer my playlists from my old ipod to the new one

Export playlists from iOS - http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1113751
A playlist is, of course, just a listing of music tracks, or did you want to copy the music too? You do not transfer that from iPod to iPod, you synch the iPod to the same library used with the first one.
