My ipod nano went weird?
For the past year I've been putting music on the ipod nano with no problem. The music was fine, perfect quality.
Yesterday I wanted to put more songs on it so I downloaded itunes and installed it.
Dragged my songs onto the ipod and let it finish doing its thing.
Then I went to listen to the music and it was normal, but after about an hour all my songs suddenly changed. They didn't sound like they were supposed to.
I can't really describe it, but it just didn't sound right at all. For example it's like they got a bad singer and horrible band and forgot to make it sound better.
I don't know what to do, I've already tried resetting it and I want to think as formatting as a last resort because I don't have half the cds the songs came from anymore...
Please help T_T

They are all in Itunes library, but it won't recognize my ipod.
I'm not sure what that means. When you hook up your nano to the computer, does it appear in the bar along the left side? If so, select a sync method (automatic or manual) and sync the tunes you want on the nano.

Ok, so I've got a 2Gb iPod nano, but almost everytime I try to recharge it I have to reset/restore it because it gives the folder_exclamationpoint error. When this happens I can't get it to work other then restoring it to the factory settings.
This is really annoying and I hope someone here knows how to fix this. Any help would be appreciated.From what you have described here, it sounds like you need a new battery. Apple offers a battery replacement service, along with many third-party iPod repair companies out there.
Unfortunately, it seems that the 5th gen. iPod batteries wear out relatively fast. -
I have it under a lamp right now and will place it in a bowl of rice in a couple of hours... Does anybody think it will work!?!? Or fixable in an apple store? I think I should also say that the sensor for nike+ was also plugged while it was in the washer...
my went throough the washer machince and i did not use rice at all. my brother is using it right now.........but the screen is a little hard to see. you should plug it back into the computer after yu take it out of the rice.
write back if yu need more help. i have gone through the same thing yu have
P.S. yu cant return it -
My brother's iPod nano went through the washer and dryer!
My brother was looking for his nano for like a week. Yesterday my mom cleaned his room and put his clothes in the laundry. Today when we were folding the clothes we found it in his pants and it was really hot. Will it survive?
Maybe. Put it in a bag of uncooked rice, let it sit for a week.
Good luck. -
IPod nano 6th backlight out.
My ipod nano went through the wash and now the backlight doesnt work. it connects to itunes and can still play through the 3.5 but the backlight is screwed. i can still make out the screen at the right angle of light. is there anyway to fix this?
You can check http://www.ifixit.com to see if they have any screens available, if you don't want to do it yourself you can try http://www.iresq.com. Or take it to an Apple Store and see if they have an out-of - warranty replacement cost.

I just got an ipod nano and noticed i had Itunes on my computer. My boyfriend had downloaded it for him a while ago on the computer with his own music. I went on the account and downloaded some music but it will not let me sync it to my nano. I believe that must be because it is his account. I went to the control pannel to uninstall the program (with his permission hehe) and re downloaded it. All of his stuff came back up. I am not able to sync anything to my nano thanks for any input!
Uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes has no affect on the media on the computer or the account it is linked to.
If the media was purchased under another iTunes account, then it is permanently tied to that account.

please help me my ipod nano 7g went off and will not start, this happened after I connect to my computer, my ipod will restart and I no longer turn on. what I do?
Hey saintbless,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines troubleshooting information for iPod nano. While it mostly refers to the 6th generation, most steps apply for your model as well:

Will not turn on or screen remains dark
- Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
- If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting the device while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button for at least eight seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
- If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
- If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
Thanks,

I purchased an used iPod Nano 4th.with many,many,many songs and albums on it,but when i plugged the usb cable into my laptop(i am a new comer to computer) i thought i was changing the name and thought i was syncing but something went wrong and everything was gone! is there any way possible to get these back? Please I need Help!!! Thank you!
Was the music purchased via your iTunes account and/or did you buy it from other sources or copy it from your own CDs, or did the music belong to the previous owner ? If the music was yours then you can sync it back to the iPod via your computer's iTunes. If the music is not still on your computer then have you got a backup of it ? If not then for iTunes purchases you might be able to re-download it depending on which country you are in. If the music was put on the iPod by the previous owner then you will need to buy your own copies of it.

Got a refurbished iPod Nano 6th gen, and went to connect it to my PC,
Got a refurbished iPod Nano 6th gen, and went to connect it to my PC, it said it was configured to Mac and went to restore it and install software. Now shows white screen with little computer icon and warning sign. won't reset
By a reset, I assume you mean pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Volume Down buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear?
Can you try and force the Nano into Disk Mode and then connect it iTunes and restore it again?

Hello I just found a problem with my Ipod nano 6th generation. It worked fine an hour ago but then the screen turned a dark grey. Did the restore through Itunes and then it went white. But now it's totally unresponsive and seems to be off even when it is plugged into itunes. Can't even restore it. I get Error 1415?

You may want to first try removing and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes by following the steps in this article:

This is just a comment......Last Friday my sons Ipod Nano was left in his pants pocket....and went through the washing machine, even the ear buds. Long story short....I thought it was completely dead. I even ordered another one online assuming this one was broke, which I would expect. We let it sit for a while to dry....water or condesation looked like it was under the screen too. Sunday we plugged it into the charger and it came on!!!!!! Everything so far is working!! Video, sound....the water/condesation under the screen even went away!! Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I plugged it up to iTunes and it recognized it. It would play the music off of it to. I guesnthe displaynis faulty because of how IT DOESNT TURN ON
