Nano does not skip songs marked in iTunes to "Skip when Shuffle"

When I am listening to my music in shuffle mode on my nano, why does my nano not skip the songs that I have marked to "Skip when Shuffling" in iTunes?

I'm shuffling the whole library on my nano. I have confirmed that the songs that I marked to be skipped are still marked as "skip when shuffling" in iTunes after the nano played them

  • IPod Nano does not display songs after upgrading to iTunes 7.1 & SW1.3

    After installing iTunes 7.1 on my WIN machine and connecting my iPod nano iTunes asked me about upgrading my iPod's firmware. After I did this all the songs on my iPod where gone. When I connect my iPod to iTunes I see that 3,8 GIG is still in use, which should be correct, and it states it is analyzing song for "gapless playback". However, my songs don't show up in iTunes, nor on the iPod. I rebooted the firmware on the iPod (menu+select) but no results.
    a) how to get my songs back to my iPod without going thru a factory reset?
    b) how to get rid of iTunes 7 and V. 6 back?
    Thank in advance.

    Does it look like the song is playing at the top of iTunes? Can you see the timer moving?
    Also, make sure the volume slider isn't all the way to the left (mute).

  • 6th gen iPod Nano does not play songs

    Today, for no apparent reason, my 6th gen iPod Nano has stopped playing songs. When I select a song, the Play button changes to a Pause button, just as it normally would if the song was playing, but the track does not play, and no time elapses on the song progress bar - it just remains at 0:00. If I fast forward through the song, the song progress bar remains at whatever time I advance it to. I've pressed Play/Pause repeatedly to try and get the songs to play, but nothing happens other than the Play/Pause icon toggling back and forth between playing and paused.
    This happens when I try to play any song or podcast on the iPod. It was able to play every song as recently as yesterday. All of these songs and podcasts play just fine on iTunes and on any other iPod, iPhone or iPad that I sync them to.
    I have restarted the Nano several times. I've also done a complete restore of the Nano from scratch. I've got the latest version of iTunes, and all of the other functionality works just fine on the Nano.
    Any thoughts?

    Problem appears to be solved, thanks to the downtown Portland Apple Store Genius Bar. Apparently there was some sort of conflict with the permissions for the music (even though I own all of it, and all of the media played just fine on all of my other iOS devices).
    To fix it, I went to the iTunes "Store" menu, chose "Deauthorize this computer" and followed the prompts. I then quit iTunes, restarted iTunes and double-clicked a TV show that I had purchased. This prompted me to re-authorize my computer, which I did.
    I then synced a couple of songs, and they played just fine. I restored the rest of my playlists, and I'm happy to say that everything is behaving a-ok now. Phew!

  • Ipod nano does not connect to Windows and itunes

    Dear All
    in my family we have 3 ipods: a shuffle, a ipod 20gb and a nano. While the first 2 are easily connecting to windows and itunes, the nano doesn't and does not recognise the USB port of my laptop[message 'unkwnon device']. I have tried, I think, most of the suggestion I found on the apple support and in the forum. Does somebody know any 'special' tip, my son is really getting frustrated by this situation because he can't get the same music. Please help. Thanks in advance
    ciao

  • IPod nano does NOT appear on Desktop or iTunes

    My mac gave me a message saying Itunes, and quicktime need to updated. I did so and my mac restarted. Afterwards my iPod Nano no longer appears on my desktop or in iTunes. (Actually my nano only appears when iTunes is closed.
    When I remove my iPod Nano then there is a message saying a device was removed improperly.
    I also have a 30 GB iPod. It will appear on the desktop and in iTunes. My iPod 8 GB Nano will not appear on my G5 ( I have two. One is running 10.5.2 and the other is running 10.4.11. Both with iTunes 7.6. The problem appears to be centered around 8 GB iPod Nano.
    I also plugged my ipod nano into firewire that plugs into an adapter that plugs into electric socket. AND still no response from my iPod Nano.
    Please advise........................

  • File Count does not match Song Count in iTunes

    I started with an empty library in iTunes. After performing a search of my Music folder (*.mp3) 3405files were found, I highlight these files and drag-n-drop them into iTunes. iTunes only displays 2894, that 511 mp3 files not displayed in iTunes.
    I have attempted, again with a empty library, to add a folder (my Music), this still only displays the 2894 songs.
    Any ideas why these may be omitted from iTunes?

  • My nano does not sync all the checked songs in my library. Can this be corrected?

    My nano does not sync all the checked songs in my library. Can this be corredcted?

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer or set up via wifi? If so you can only use the manual method and that only works with music and videos.

  • ITunes player does not play songs since upgrading to 10.5.1; not fixed with 10.5.2 upgrade. What now?

    After upgrading iTunes on my laptop to version 10.5.1, my player will NOT play any songs. My Library seems intact and no songs appear to be missing, but no song will play --not a song downloaded from iTunes Store, nor a song downloaded from a CD. I was hoping version 10.5.2 would fix this, but apparently not. Still not working. Songs do play on my iPod and on my iPhone and I can transfer songs from my laptop to my devices; I can also download Apps to my laptop through the iTunes Store, etc.--all other functions of iTunes seem to be okay, only the player is not working. (My laptop is an hp Probook with Intel i5 chip, Windows 7 Pro OS.)

    Does it look like the song is playing at the top of iTunes? Can you see the timer moving?
    Also, make sure the volume slider isn't all the way to the left (mute).

  • Nano does not appear in ITunes or Finder; unable to re-set device

    Suddenly my 2nd gen nano does not appear in ITunes or Finder. I looked up support articles and it says to try re-setting the Nano, but I'm unable to do that -- I press the center and menu buttons; have also tried the menu and play buttons but the apple logo never appears. I've had problems with the menu button "sticking" before, so perhaps that's why...Nevertheless, how else do I fix this issue?? I've been unable to sync or transfer my recent purchases, so this is frustrating....

    - however once i reached the crutial stage of
    actually switching the 'terminal services' from
    disabled to manual, I get an error message on my
    computer "Error 5: Access denied" and nothing on the
    site gives any indication of what to do in such an
    eventuality.
    Do you have an administrator account on your computer? If you are not logged in as administrator, do so before attempting to change the to manual. However, I myself am having the same problems with my own ipod..

  • My 6th generation nano does not show in the iTunes window.

    When I open iTunes my nano does not appear in the library window and my computer does not recognize the device, so it's also not synching. My library is intact and I've updated both the iTunes software and downloaded updates for Windows 7.  I even uninstalled and re-install iTunees.
    The only thing I haven't done is changed cords.  I'm using the cord from a 1st generation ipod.  I received the 6th generation ipod as part of Apple's replacement program.
    Everything worked fine the last time I synched a few months ago and when I recharged the ipod last month.
    Does anyone have additional tips to fix this?

    I tried all this, I mean should I reset all setting?
    Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    that is restart.

  • HT201272 I need to reload some songs as the backup did not include all. Following this article. Problem is that download icon does not appear anywhere. Using iTunes 11.01. Anybody seen this before?

    Steve!
    There is a lot more "meat" in this .
    I purchased all out of Denmark. My HD crashed and I reload it all. While doing this I had to install new iTunes, - this is the newest version 10.xx. The old version was probbaly 9.xx (cant remember). So the library files are from an old version, - but it does not look like creating a problem. I am now in Sweden, so iTunes was installed in Sweden, and I try to re-download my missing songs while being here in Sweden. However, - I belive I am connected to iTunes store in Denmark. ... (it takes 2 smileys for this, - if you get as far as to here and still have an overview.)
