Nano problems with Alarm clocks(lik e Luna or others)

I have a new nano 4gb, and an Xtrememac Luna... My old ipod 2nd gen worked perfecly, the new nano has problems instead.. When my alarm function lit the ipod, it does not play the song, but remain in pause... The nano wakes up, but old nano started to play the song, this stands in pause. Why this? Can I hope in a fix or something? many people have this problem...
Possible solutions?
thanks in advance

Since there was no reply from Apple so far I called their service today.
The claimed that this problem was not known with the devices which they are selling and that they can't tell about 3rd party alarm clocks.
Big news! Who would have thought of that answer?
Well I then called the manufacturer of my alarm clock which is called "auvisio", one of these cheap copies. They knew about the problem with the nano 3G on thier device and said that they can't offer a solution so far. They offered RMA which I would say is quite nice of them but it doesn't help me much with my wake-up-problem in the morning.
I already settled with the thought that I would have to buy the more expensive Apple stuff but as I read above even Bose seems to have the problem. Complete confusion.
Hopefully firmware 1.0.3 will be released soon and can finally solve these problems. Release 1.0.2 definitely was a step into the opposite direction...

  • 3rd Gen Nano-Problems with iPod Clock Radio.

    Hey All,
    I'm having problems w/new Nano and an Alarm Clock Radio for iPods.
    1) When the alarm time is reached, the iPod display lights up like its been triggered, by the alarm clock base, but music doesn't play. The unit then reverts to the beeper.
    2) The unit is made by SDI Technologies, the same people that make the iHome models of Alarm Clock radioes. They've told me that Apple needs to come out w/an update/fix.
    3) Does that sound right to all of you?
    Has anyone heard about a time frame for a revision past 1.0.1?
    Thanks, Tom

    Thanks GunnerJr,
    I had an appt. at my local Apple store yesterday. The guy was helpful but felt that it indeed was a firmware issue that was occurring. He couldn't say when the next update would be rolled out but said they're pretty frequent based on prior Apple products.
    Apparently the redesign of the Nano is from the ground up and very thorough. The firmware in the clock radio is probably kind of dated back to some time in '06. Hopefully the software/QA people will get wind of this issue and arite it into a future update. Certainly not the biggest issue they'll deal with but hopefully sooner rather than later.

  • Problems with 'Alarm Clock'

    Good day.
    I use my Ipod as Alarm Clock - it's pretty good to wake up while listening to the favourite music. I made it to start playing playlist without beeping.
    I don't know why, but sometimes (after watching video, listening to the music before I go to bed) my alarm clock doesn't work correctly: when it's time to wake up, it just shows a message *wake up* as usually, but without playing music, so I'm being late for some times already...
    Please, tell me what to do, how to fix this problem, 'cause I hate ordinary beeping alarm clocks.
    P.S.: Sorry, if my english isn't very good.

    Pick a sound, song, etc. for the alarm and make sure it is not the default one.

  • Problem With Alarm Clock and Ringtones

    Two nights ago i set my alarm for 5:00am on my Blackberry Storm2.  The next morning the alarm did not go off.  When i checked the phone i tested the ringtone associated with the alarm and it came back with an error message that said the phone could not find the ring tone.  I then noticed that all ring tones did not work, my phone did not ring when called, the phone also did not make any alert sounds.  I tried several different ring tones and I received all the same messages. 
    I did a battery pull on my phone and that seemed to fix all the issues so I did not thing anything of it.  I tried it again this morning and the same thing.  I did not do the battery pull this morning as I was going to leave the errors on the phone to bring back to Verizon.  I even tried calling the phone this morning and it would not ring or sound any alerts.  All of a suddent about 3 hours later my phone starting ringing from a phone call and alll the ring tones started working
    I have not added any ring tones to my phone all of these ring tones are the factory installed ones.  Both nights I have the phone on my dresser face down and not attached to any charging wires.  I did add music to my media card 2 days ago using the ITunes Snyc but have not created any ring tones at all.
    Would anyone know what is causing this issue?
    Would anyone have any idea what would be causing this.

    in my opinion this is a media cache issue.
    activate Mass Storage mode and connect your device to your PC.
    using the Explorer of the PC, view the Storm's two harddrives and especially the hidden files. You should see a file named BBThumbs.dat in every folder that contains a media file. Delete all those BBThumbs.dat files.
    those files are media cache, and they may sometimes get corrupt. Deleting them will force the Media Manager to recreate the cache entirely.

  • Problem with my clock

    I've updated my 3GS yesterday to 4.2.1 and have now problems with the clock. My iPhone is still in the German summer time. Synchronising again this morning didn't solve the problem.
    Well done Apple, this caused a morning in unnecessary rush this morning. I was hoping Apple learned from the big issues in Australia with the alarm clock after the last update.
    Cheers

    Right now this is the Slipknot - Scream, does this not enought ?

  • Problem with the clock widget

    Hi,
       I would like to know if someone have a problem with the clock widget after doing the update system to Mac OS X Mavericks (v.10.9), cause the appearance of my clock was like this (attached image). Pay attention for the position of hands of the clock (watch hands): Don't have something strange?
      Anyone know how to fix this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I have the same problem, I have done a fresh install of OS X and still did not fix the clock ... For when a new update?
    Thanks

  • Problems with special characters like "u00F6" "u00E4" "u00FC"

    Hi,
    we currently face some major problems with special characters like "ö" "ä" "ü". First I thought it is a SP02 specific problem but it still doesn't work with SP03.
    When I start an import the import manager shows correct converted value. "ö"s "ä"s "ü"s are displayed correctly. But after I've done the import I look into the Data manager and I see instead of these characters charcaters like "̈". (note: the character should show a little square box - but the forum cannot desplay it)
    How can I solve this problem?
    Regards
    Nico

    Hi Nico
      Just try it out the following steps, hope it solves ur issue.
    <b>To set one or more values back to their original values:</b>
    1. In the Import Manager Source Values grid, select the values that you want to set back to their original values.
    2. Right-click on one of the values and choose Set to Original Value from the context menu, or choose Values > Apply Value Conversion Filter > Set to Original Value from the main menu.
    3. MDME sets each value back to its original value, which appears in black in the Source Values grid.
    <b>NOTE : You can use the Set to Original Value filter only at the value-level and not at the field level.</b>
    thanks

  • TS3938 I have a problem with the CD player plays some species, others give me this letter no longer supported PowerPC

    I have a problem with the CD player plays some species, others give me this letter no longer supported PowerPC

    Educational software suffers from having been written many years ago, but the financial market is not such to give the publisher much incentive to update the software.
    The problem for you is that Top Notch 2 with ActiveBook was written and released by Pearson back when Macs utilized the PowerPC CPU platform.  In 2006, Apple migrated the Macs to Intel CPUs, but released their Operating Systems with an invisible translation program, Rosetta, so that the user could continue to use their existing library of PowerPC applications and take time to update them as needed.
    The problem arises in that Apple no longer continues to update Rosetta for inclusion in Lion and now Mountain Lion, so that your CD-ROM cannot be executed on your Lion Mac.
    Since Pearson looks unlikely to rewrite and release an Intel version of Top Notch 2, you must find a workaround that will play your CD-ROM and allow you to continue utilizing your ActiveBook.
    You do not indicate which model of Mac you are using.  If you upgraded it to Lion from Snow Leopard, you have these workarounds:
    1.  Revert to Snow Leopard
    2.  Partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it.  This will allow you to "dual-boot" into Snow Leopard when you need access to run Top Notch 2.  You would then have to "dual-boot" back into Lion when you needed access to those features required by Lion.
    If you purchased a new Mac that came with Lion, you only have one workaround available to run Top Notch 2: 
    3.  Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels
                                  [click on image to enlarge]
    There is an easier way to run your Top Notch 2 in Parallels if cost is not a significant factor for you.  You must purchase Snow Leopard Server from a third party souce, such as eBay, which when sold by Apple was $499 or more.  I now see that it can be purchased on eBay for as little as $51.  Parallels allows for easy installation of Snow Leopard Server into Parallels.
    If cost is a factor, then use the link above the photo to follow my instructions on how to install Snow Leopard client ($19.99 from Apple) into Parallels and achieve the same result.
    Lastly, you could purchase a used Mac that will allow Snow Leopard to be the boot OS X installed (wth the optional Rosetta installed).  But this seems like an expensive alternative just to run one piece of software; and subject to hardware failure without notice or recourse.

  • Nano 4g will suddenly not work with alarm clock. What happened?

    As of the last time I synced it, my iPod nano 4g will not work with an alarm clock. What happened? It doesn't work with mine or with my roommate's, and her iPod will work with my clock. My iPod will PLAY in the clock dock if I turn it on and hit play, but won't wake up and play anymore as an alarm. I tried setting the alarm on the iPod instead of on the alarm clock, and that doesn't work as a fix (it won't make the clock wake up). ARGH.

    Yeah, mine won't work. Just started acting up this week.
    It doesn't work at all. I can set the alarm for any time, and it simply doesn't go off. I got a replacement phone of the same LG Accolade model, and it doesn't work either.
    I switched the clock display settings, thinking there might be a glitch there. Didn't work when I changed it, or when I put it back to my original settings.
    Agh!
    Hi Robert116,
    Please ensure that you have software version VX560V04 installed on your phone. For instructions to view software version please visit this LINK.
    If you do have the correct software version a LG Accolade VX5600 - Master Reset may resolve the alarm clock issues outlined on your post. A master reset will resolve issues if any of your phone's system files became corrupted.
    Please keep in mind that a master reset will erase all data and restore preferences to factory default specifications. Performing a hard reset is only recommended when the existing data has been backed up or is unwanted. Please backup your information before you do a master reset.

  • Has anyone had problems with the clock app in iOS 6?

    The clock app has been updated and now allows me to use a song as my alarm tone. Have been wanting apple to do this for a long time. Problem is that when alarm goes off I get no sound. The phone just vibrates. I do not have the phone muted. Guessing this is a glitch in the app?  Anyone else having similar problem?

    Been using iOS 6 now for a couple weeks on an iPad 2 and twice have relied on it as an alarm clock. Both times it's failed to play the song I've designated as the alarm.  I've tried it with the cover open and closed, volume maxed and not.  Each time, after the designated alarm time, I've opened the iPad up &amp; entered the security code only to be greeted by the alarm message pop up.  That's it.
    Kinda frustrating, to say the least.
    Am I using it incorrectly?  Having used the clock on the iPhone this way in earlier versions of iOS, I've never had an issue.  Would like to leverage this functionality, but being 0 for 2, not sure I want to risk a third time...
    Thoughts?

  • IPod Nano Problem with Turning On

    Right I've got a bit of a problem with turning on the nano. I know it works because when its on it's fine, but if its off for a while (i.e. 30 mins or more) and I go to press play or whatever, nothing happens. But if I press any of the buttons about 100 times it will come on and work fine.
    Has anyone had this problem and know if there's anything I can do about it. It seems like the buttons don't work properly, but it can't be that because they work when its on.
    Here's what I know it's not:
    Battery (its full)
    In need of a restore (tried that)
    Reset (tried that)
    In need of new software (just put the latest on)
    So any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers.
    Oh also, completely off subject just trying to kill 2 birds with one stone, how do you do backwards deletes on a mac (i.e. what the 'del' button does on a PC)?

    AliasailA, you are kidding, right??
    You cannot use someone else's serial number or Apple Care Plan--it doesn't work that way.
    I noticed you had another post that said the mini was given to you and has a "sad face icon" and out of warranty. Hummmm.
    You really have to send that mini in for repair/replacement or consider it a lost cause. Maybe it is time to buy an iPod Nano for yourself.

  • Battery Drain With Alarm Clock Function

    This just started happening to me last week.  I have 4 alarms set during the week days...in case I hit the 'Dismiss' button by accident. These alarms have been set since I got my phone in October. Well, last week I noticed that after the 4th alarm had gone off, my battery had gone down to 48% while still plugged into the charger.  This phone is usually on the charger all night with no problems and at 100% by the time I leave for work...until now.  Any ideas why this might be?
    I currently am recreating the issue by setting my alarms for PM and seeing if there're any changes.
    Thanks!

    I set the alarm clocks for PM.....but of course it didn't do anything abnormal. So I set them again for the AM. The next morning, my alarms went off as usual, and the battery stayed fully charged. So I am at a loss as to what was going on previously.  My only conclusion is perhaps the mini USB was not completely inside the port ????  If anything new happens I'll be sure to post.  So far the past two mornings have gone without a hitch.  Go figure!
