Nano 5th g "TV Out enabled"

I have a Nano 5G that is several years old that I use with my Honda Fit integrated cable, an Apple Brand composite RCA cable to watch videos on my TV and the video output on the treadmills at my gym (I cannot verify that those are apple brand or not )
I recently switched PCs from XP to Windows 7. I deauthorized on xp machine first . After synching with the Windows 7 machine, with the latest version of Itunes, my accessories will no longer work.
The Nano will charge in the Honda, but not play through integrated cable (can still use headphone in aux port) .
When I try and play a video on the TV I get "TV OUT ENABLED, PLEASE CONNECT VIDEO ACCESSORY"
video settings as follows:
TV out enabled = yes
TV Signal = PAL
TV screen = standard
Again, the variable is the windows 7 itunes - the accessories worked prior to that, and the RCA is the composite cable with the apple brand connector on one side, with three cables branching out with 3 RCA plugs.
Firmware version = 1.0.2
Itunes 10.6.3.25 on windows 7

I got the same message.
Turn on your nano.
Go to Videos
In Videos, scroll down to Settings
At the top of the list you will see TV Out
To the right of TV out it will say either on or off
If it is on, click on the wheel at 9 o'clock (pointing left) to turn it off
That should do it, no problem
Once I turn it off my movies play perfectly

My Ipod Nano 5th generation is not being detected by Widows and Itunes. I have tried everything based on the trouble shooting tips outlined. Has anyone had this situation before? How was it resolved. My Ipod is just out of warrenty

Have done all trouble shooting tech a through Apples and still have not resolved issues on Windows and itunes not detecting my Ipod nano 5th generation device. Tried restoring the device manually using disk mode and still not being detected by the computer. Device is our of warenty as when service repair charges are $125.00 dolars more than I paid for this device. There must be some way to restore the entire device to factor settings without having to be connected to itunes and Windows. I wish I could connect but again device is not being read. I have another Ipod that is 8GB instaed of 16GB and it works fine. The sad thing about this situation is that my 9year old daughter worked hard doing delivering fliers for a long time to save her money to buy this 16 GB 5th generation Nano. Otherwise the Ipod works well but will not syncronize songs as it is not being detected. Maybe this is a result of corrupt files that got onto my daughters Ipod somehow and thus causing it not the be detwected through the USB connection thus as a result not be understoud as a working device through Windows and itunes. If anyone can help me out there including itune techs that would be well appreciated, but for now my daughter is not able to add new or delete any songs on her ipod as well pictures, and everything. Thanks

Try changing the cord. I could NOT get my computer to recognize my iPod 5th Gen until I read somewhere that different apple devices use different cords. I was inadvertently using my iPad cord and that caused my computer to not recognize my ipod.

My ipod warranty ran out a few months ago I have a nano 5th gen. The problem is that if I want to play a song it would show the album artwork for about 3 seconds and go back to the main menu with no music playing. It'snot the head phones or ear jack. help

How to reset iPod

Ipod nano 5th g will not shut down properly - did a full restore - help

Hi,
We have a Nano 5th generation. We are having trouble turning it off. I did a full restore and it still has the problem.
It actually seems that the lower part of the wheel is not working correctly.
We had trouble pausing - but I got it to pause by pressing the wheel at the 4-5 o'clock position.
Later I had trouble shutting it off and was able to do it in the 7-8 o'clock position.
Any thoughts?

If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

Voice memos disappear off iphone 4 & ipod nano 5th after syncing to mac

hi. i record voice memos on my ipod nano 5th gen and when i sync the nano to my mac they are in itunes on my mac but not on my ipod anymore. they completely disappear from the nano. there is a v.m. playlist i can see on itunes for the ipod but they are grayed out and do not show up at all on the ipod. i can play them on my mac though. since i would like to have my v.m. on a portable device i tried copying them from itunes on my mac to my iphone 4 and have had strange results. sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't or a few will copy. the playlist doesn't copy to the iphone at all but if i go to the v.m. app on the phone a few will be there. help! how can i get my v.m. that are now all on my mac to one of my portable devices? thanks in advance.

nevermind. somehow now they are showing up in a music playlist on my nano. not sure if i just missed that as i was looking under extras > voice memos and not music playlists. i'm a happy camper now.

So is she dead and times to go and buy something new or does anyone have any suggestions for a fix?

Try one or more of the following:
Restart your computer
Uninstall & Reinstall iTunes
Reset iPod (will not delete everything)
Check in My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows Vista & 7) and see if it shows
Restore iPod (will delete everything)
Make sure iTunes and iOS firmware is up to date

My iPod Nano 5th G. Won't turn on off the charger!?

I recently just found my iPod since it's been lost, I can't understand why it won't turn on when it's not on the charger? It comes on when I put the charger in, thats fine, an I can listen to music and all, it even shows the bolt on the battery and that it's charging, also shows fine on my computer, it connects an I can sync music but I just don't get why when I take it out the charger it goes off and won't turn back on! I tried looking online on how to reset which I did but no luck not even when when I tried resetting it while charging t still won't come on without the charger connected to it. Unless I'm doing it wrong, I don't get it. It never had that problem, although it's been dead for a really long time but does it make a difference? And the battery doesn't show full, it still shows it charging you know when it moving ? And I can't even tell if the battery has gotten at least half way charged cause it goes right off when I take the charger out. Its been about 7-8 hours that I had it on and off the charger . Can you help me? Does the battery have be completely full to where it's still and green ? Not moving back and forth meaning it's not charged at all? Some gadgets don't show the battery is at least half way. On the computer on iTunes, it says it's up to date

Hello undertow5613,
I would be concerned as well if my iPod nano was not powering on. I found a resource that I think would help in a situation like this.
I recommend following the steps in this troubleshooting assistant:

IPod Nano 5th Gen is stuck on the Apple Logo, won't go into disk mode and won't connect to computer.

My iPod Nano 5th Generation won't turn on; I've held down "Menu" and the center button which makes the Apple logo come up, then it just stays on that. I've followed steps I've seen on here trying to get it into disk mode by holding down the "Play/Pause" button and the center button immediately after the Apple Logo appears but it doesn't respond to that at all. I've charged it and upgraded my iTunes but nothing seems to do anything to it. When I plug it into my computer there is nothing to say it's plugged in on iTunes or My computer or anything. It's driving me crazy and I'm hoping there's a way I can fix it without it having to be sent off.
Any advice would be cracking!
Thanks,
Tilda

Did you ever get this resolved? I'm having the same problem and can't figure it out.

IPod nano (5th gen.) being recognized by computer (Windows XP) but not iTunes. Please Help.

Hello everyone,
When I plug in my iPod nano 5th generation, my computer is recognizing it, but iTunes is not. I just recently bought it off of a friend and it was working perfectly. Today is the first time that it wouldn't connect to iTunes. I have tried using different USB ports and that didn't work. I plugged in my sister's iPod Touch and it worked fine. I don't want to have to try to uninstall/reinstall iTunes for fear of loosing some of the information on there. I have also read several things that say that that doesn't work, so I don't see any reason to take a pointless risk. If there is anything that I can do to get it to work? I would try another computer, but my home computer is the only one that I have. I really need to get it to work ASAP. PLEASE HELP!!

If you check other error problems linked to this issue (example errors 1437 and 1439), you will note that these recognition issues have been prevalent for a lot of iPods (not only nanos and suffles) since iTunes version 7.5 went away. Seems like Apple doesn't have a clue, and doesn't want to have a clue. Many people all over the world have come up with things that have worked for them, but none of those fixes are working for me any more. Maybe this is just Apple's way of forcing people to buy their brand computers. It stinks. I am at a total loss as to what to do to get my Nano recognized at all in iTunes, and my Shuffles to sync. Obviously we are all venting our frustrations on an Apple hosted discussion board. Equally obvious is that no one at Apple is reading this stuff, further displaying that Apple simply does NOT CARE.
If I ever in the next couple of years or so (see, I am not very optimistic) get an HONEST answer out of Apple, or a workable solution elsewhere around the internet, I'll do a follow-up post here. But, I am not very hopeful. I think my iPods have just become expensive chunks of junk, because I am NOT going to buy an Apple computer just for them.

IPod Nano 5th generation cannot connect to the computer

My Nano 5th generation cannot connect to my computer when the device is connected to a USB cord. I have an existing library which I have synced to numerous times but all of a sudden, the iPod does not connect using the USB cord. I've tried changing ports on the computer but to no avail. I share the computer with another user who has a totally different library (their's is an iPod Touch) and there is no problem connecting this iPod Touch to the computer and iTunes library. I cannot figure out why the Nano 5th generation is not connecting by way of the USB cord. Somebody please help me

Have you tried plugging the iPod into a different USB port? Sometimes this can fix the problem of a device not being seen by a computer.
And i share you a column about [iPod Transfer|http://www.softwarebbs.com/wiki/IPod_Transfer]. This has worked perfectly for me everytime I've tried it.
Hope it can do you a favor.

HT1351 I have a Ipod Nano 5th edition and I can no longer sync, add or view my previously recorded music to itunes or windows. What can I do?

I have a Ipod Nano 5th edition. 2 years ago I imported and exported my music files to my Windows 7 laptop and also to Itunes. It worked great. Recently I've tried to do the same and now I can't do either. When I plug in my ipod it is discoverable but I cannot view my music at all. I tried to sync new music I burned from CD's to the ipod, I keep getting a message that the music is already on it but it's not. It's updated, settings I believe are set correct and troubleshooting it, it reports no problems. I don't know what else to do. Need Help! Thank you in advance.

Hey 9Cre114,
I would try out restoring your iPod nano, that might resolve the issue. Restoring erases the iPod's disk and restores iPod to its original factory condition. You can read about how to do so here:
Warning: Because restoring erases all the songs and files on iPod, back up any files you've saved on the iPod disk. All of your songs, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, and games can be loaded back to your iPod provided that you have them stored in your iTunes Library. If you use the Nike + iPod Sport Kit, see this document for more information.
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.

IPod Nano 5th Gen unmounts before synch

When I attempt to synch my iPod Nano 5th gen to my Mac (OSX 10.8.4) is appears in the devices for a short time, then it disappears. I have not synched in a while, and the iPod has been sitting in a 3rd party dock which is attached to my amplifier.
I have:
checked my iTunes is up to date
performed a reboot
swapped USB ports
reset my iPod
placed my iPod into disk mode
I recorded a log of the events that occur when I plug it in:

The questin that the computer asked you was "This iPod has been synced with another computer. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this computer." If you said yes then it deleted everything. The way to put it back on is.
1. Click on the iPod
2. Click Podcast on the top of the screen.
3. Check the box
4. Choose what Podcasts you want to have.
5. Click the sync button

Nano 5th Gen will NOT reset or connect to iTunes

I've tried the usual toggling of the hold button followed by the menu/select button on this Nano, which has worked on other models that I own. This Nano will not reset and isn't recognized when plugged into iTunes. Just the black screen no matter what. Out of warranty, so any suggestions other than taking to Apple would be greatly appreciated!

If none of the suggestions mentioned in the iPod Nano 5th Gen. User Manual and on the iTunes & iPod Hints & Tips website, you should take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you. If you have Apple Care, take advantage of it by calling them.

My iPod Nano 5th gen is broken, and I need some help fixing it!

I have a iPod Nano 5th gen, and it is currently broken. When I play a song it usually pops up and at the bottom it shows the length of the song. Now when I play music it pops up and at the bottom it shows the volume control. I tried to switch it back by hitting the central circle button, but it immediately switched it back to volume control. Sometimes the menu button will work but now I usually have to hit the menu button a few times for it to work. I have run out of ideas so if anyone has some please share. Thanks!

You need to get it serviced. The click wheel is damaged.

Hold button is sticking and wheel buttons are going on iPod nano 5th generation

I have four iPods. One 30gb classic that doesn't work at all. Another inoperable one is a 2 gb (dropped in water) nano that they don't make anymore. Another is an 8 gb touch, and the last is a 16gb nano 5th generation. My main concern is the 16gb nano. The hold switch is sticking sometimes, and the previous and menu buttons are not working. The previous button went first, now the menu button has been going out. I have to press it 6 or 7 times sometimes more. I saw the support document stating that it was being pressed during calibration after switching it off of hold, but I don't think that is it. I am going to try the r's after their advice doesn't work. I am waiting for the next button to start doing it and then the play/pause. There is no problem with the wheel as far as volume or selection. I have taken excellent care of this device, and I am hoping they recall like they did with the first gen nano. I am crossing my fingers! There is barely a scratch on it.
BTW, the 5th gen classic I have was doing really weird stuff. It would play after being completely charged. But, if you changed albums or songs at all, it would go to the reset screen with the apple logo and freeze up. I think I am going to get a new battery, I hope it works. I have almost 100gb of music, 16 doesn't quite cut it anyway. It also won't recognize this device in iTunes. So, the troubleshooter is no help.

1. Go to the iTunes Store. In the bar that goes across the window, click on iTunes U. These are lectures and other material contributed by many educational institutions. They are free.
2. I don't know. But once it is on your iTunes library, you can change the Media Kind by doing a Get Info on the item in iTunes. On the Options tab of the Info window, set the Media Kind to Audiobook.
3. I don't know. You'll probably know tomorrow...
4. No. I can't think of a way to do that, not as a voice memo recording. If you can convert the voice memo recording from the iPhone into an MP3 or AAC file, you can add it to your iTunes library as a song. You could then sync it to the iPod, like you would with any song file.
