My ipod nano 6th gen keeps stopping in the middle of a song

Double check to make sure the headphones are plugged ALL the way in meaning the white part of the headphones is flush with the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
The new headphone jacks are a bit tigher than previous generations and require a little bit of extra force to get the headphones to fully connect.

Ipod nano 7th gen will stop playing randomly in a song. PLEASE HELP.

Please help me with this. My new Ipod Nano will randomly stop playing during a song. What gives? Thanks.

My Ipod Nano 7th gen does this as well. It will pause randomly, then i will hit play again, will play for a minute, then pause again. Seems like it does it the most when hooked up with a cars AUX input.
I'm about to make an appointment with apple.
Thanks.

The date and time on my ipod nano 7th gen keeps on changing

Hi,
Since i bought my iPod Nano 7th gen, ive been having problems with the date and time. Every time i change it to the actual time and date, it changes after a while. Does this happen with anyone else? Would there be a problem with my iPod?

Well after i change it it seems fine, but when i use it another time it has been changed.

Music keeps cutting out on my ipod nano 7th gen when using bluetooth

I just recently got an Ipod Nano 7th Gen and the music keeps cutting out when I use bluetooth headphones. It seems like it needs to have a line of sight or else the music will cut out. If I hold the ipod in my hands while running or keep it in my pocket, I am listening to more pauses than actual music. I practically have to hold the Ipod up to my head while running to not have it cut out on me (and that is obviously not comfortable). Is this how it should be or do I have a faulty Ipod? Is there some way that I can fix it or do I need to take it to the Apple store?

thankfully I was just able to find the answer in another member's post. You can double click the side button to advance the songs. I credit member little goomba for sharing the answer on another post. Now I am back to loving my new Nano!

I use my new nano (7th gen) to listen to books on CD that i sync from my mac. The problem is, it stops at the end of each CD. How can I get it to continue on to the hanks, Wendy

I use my new nano (7th gen) to listen to books on CD that I sync from my Mac. The problem is that it stops at the end of each CD (very annoying). How can I get it to continue on the the next CD? Thanks, Wendy

Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones? You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack. Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage. You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?

My ipod nano 7th gen. will not advance to the next song, it will keep playing the current song until manuaaly changed. All updates are current.

I had this issue with my 6th generation nano. It was driving me nuts, until I realized that somehow locked the repeat button on. Selecting one song rather than a selection will cause whatever song you have selected to play over and over and over and over..

Ipod nano 7th gen stops playing in the middle of song

Ipod nano 7th gen stops playing song randomly while listening. What gives?

i think i FINALLY solved the problem - by simply switching the wire that connects my ipod to my computer (i was using a firewire, and switched to a usb).
Did you by any chance have the iPod connected through a hub , or through another device, G?
Its not uncommon to have issues like this occur if , for example, you have a firewire device equipped with a "Prolific" 3507 firewire bridge . THese are found in many cheap external FW enclosures used for external burners and HD's , for example. The only real solution is to disconnect all such devices to avoid interruptions on the FW bus. (or, at least with the iPod, you can simply use USB2 instead).

Hi altofts,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. You can try resetting and restoring your iPod nano to see if that helps with the restart loop:

IPod nano 7th gen (brand new) doesn't recognize Headphones

I have a brand new iPod nano (7th gen), and it doesn't detect when headphones are plugged in. I have read that the problem can ocurr because the headphones are not correctly inserted or that the headphone jack has dust inside. As i always do on a regular basis with mp3 devices, i cleaned out the jack to be sure
This is what happens:
When music is not playing i hear a crackle pop sound every 2 seconds or so. My headphones are perfectly fine and work with my Samsung galaxy s4 and my old iPod touch, and my brothers iPhone. Just don't work with iPod nano. I have 3 pairs of headphones all which do not work but I do not have the original headphones. they are so uncomfortable and seems unfair to me that apple would have a one size fits al headphone that only works with the device. I do not intend on switching.
When I play a song, and then press the sleep/wake button to turn off the display, the music stops. Or if I let the music play, it stops when the screen times out and turns off. These two things occur because the iPod "thinks" that there are no headphones inserted.
When I try to activate the FM radio, the radio won't start because it says that there is no radio signal (which occurs when no headphones are connected).
Needless to say, the microphone and volume controls of the iPhone headset, don´t work at all (they even work on the iPod shuffle!).. and because of this, no voice recording for me!
I have also restored the device in iTunes, and updated with no luck.....
Thanks in advance for any useful answer!

First, make sure the headphones plug is completely inserted into the nano's headphones jack. It should "click" into place. The fit may be tighter than expected, especially when new. There is a sensor in there, and if the plug is not completely inserted, you may get some sound, but the nano will not "sense" the headphones.
If that is not the problem, you should have the nano looked at under warranty. It should work with any standard headphones. If there is an Apple Store nearby, you can make a reservation at the store's Genius Bar and take it there.

I got a new iPod nano 7th gen., but when I tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Some of the videos in your iTunes library cannot be copied to your iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod.

I got a new iPod nano 7th gen, but when i tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Soem of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to yor iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod. What should I do?

I kept having a similar problem - 3 out of the 10 videos I had on iTunes wouldn't sync. They were in the right format and I KNEW they worked on my iPod because I'd RECORDED them on my iPod. I finally figured out what to do! Go to the movies in your iTunes library. Click on one that does not sync. Click on "Advanced" at the top of iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version". Once that's finished, be sure you delete the old version so you don't keep getting the error (or have 2 copies of the same video) and sync. This should eliminate the problem. At least it did for me!

IPod Nano 7th Gen says "Unsupported. Accessory is not supported" when trying to charge / sync

iPod Nano 7th Gen says "Unsupported. Accessory is not supported" when trying to charge / sync with official apple lightening cable.
It worked for almost a year then suddenly began to say that. My computer [windows], lightening cable and my power brick [all apple official] are all the same as they were when it was working. The iPod is almost a year old now, and has worked perfectly up until about a week ago.
I have tried resetting the iPod, plugging it into different charging sources but it keeps saying "Unsupported. Accessory is not supported"
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks.

Your iPod Nano firmware and iTunes updated to the current versions?
It is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.

IPod nano 7th Gen. occasionally reboots

I've bought myself an iPod nano 7th Gen. about two weeks ago. I updated the firmware to 1.0.2 and synched some playlists on it. During the first two days my iPod nano shut down and rebooted itself about 10 times, no exaggeration. I went to my Apple Premium Reseller, turned it in and got a new one a few days later. I'm using that one for about a week now and I still got the same problems:
It happens when I wake the display up and music is playing. I hit the lock button, the music stops, the screen turns on and shows the Apple logo and then a few moments later the greyed-out homescreen with a spinner. Sometimes it shows the home screen directly and a spinner when I tap on the Music "app".
In some occasions I first hit the home button, the music kept playing and the screen stayed off, then I hit the lock button and my iPod reacted as described above.
Since two days, I observe another error which occurs often when editing a playlist or creating a new one, but also on wake up like above: The music stops, for about half a second a weird sound plays over the earbuds and then the iPod shuts down and I have to manually turn it on again (tap and hold on lock button).
I'm writing this now because I listened to music the whole day today and nearly everytime I took the iPod out of my pocket it rebooted like described above. I suspect that this is a software problem, so please, Apple, do something! These bugs make it really annoying for me to use my nano for what an iPod is for: listening to music.
Some further information: In iTunes, I checked the "Convert higher bitrate songs to 128 kbps AAC" option and filled the iPod nano with about 12 GB of music. I listen to music only with the Apple earbuds, no bluetooth headsets or car dock stations. For selecting songs, I mainly use playlists.

Okay, I tried unchecking "Convert higher bitrate songs to 128 kbps AAC" and this seems to solve the problem. Of course this is not satisfying because I can't fit all of my music on it anymore; but at least I can listen to it.
I still hope that someone at Apple reads this and tells me how to really fix that. For me, this experience is like buying a car that breaks down every 500 meters. An iPod nano that can't play back music without interruption is embarrassing!

IPod nano 7th gen not charging

I recently got an iPod nano 7th gen 16GB slate. Whenever I plug it into my MBP using the new connector, I get the PLUG in the battery icon instead of the usual lightning. When I finally unplug the iPod after keeping it plugged in for quite a long time, it seems like I didn't charge my iPod at all (all I get in the battery icon is a red line).
Is there something wrong with the battery or the cable??

Whilst charging make sure your iMac doesnt go to sleep and try to make sure itunes is constantly open whilst connected. If this does not work try restarting the device by holding down both the home button and slep button down.
Hope this helps

Hi i received the nano 7th gen for Christmas and I only seem to get 5 hours of battery life. I use the Bluetooth and Nike app so I expect more drain on the battery. But I got more time out of running with my iPhone. Does this sound normal? I thought I should get close to 30 hrs of just play time alone.
ALso, my wife got me the Belkin armband to run with the nano but I sweat through the band resulting in the back of the iPod to get wet. Surely this is not good. Anyone have a recommendation for an armband that keeps moisture away from the pod?

iPod Nano are small and they don't use Wi-Fi access so you get less power time on a Nano. As for iPhone, since you got apps, Wi-Fi + 3G access, and everything else, they give you more time so you can keep using. Nanos are ment to listen to music, listen to radio, view your photos, watch videos (without Wi-Fi) and since you got BlueTooth on the nano, it counts as wireless access so it drains your battery faster.
