Need help with new ipod nano

Wonder if anyone could help I had the 3rd generation nano and I have just purchased the fifth generation model. Am I able to plug it into my computer and it will link with my i tunes library even though it was previously linked to the 3rd gen model?
Sorry if this sounds like a daft question.

You can sync as many iPods as you want to any given iTunes library. iTunes will recognize each one as unique with its own settings.
Best of luck.

Need help with my ipod nano

Hi,
I need help with my ipod nano.
I haven't turned it on in a while and suddenly it stops working when I try to turn it on again.
Sometimes it displays:
"www.apple.com/support/ipod"
And right now it's displaying "OK to disconnect".
Could somebody please advice what should I do?
Thank you

I need help.
I have my IPOD nano for a while now and about a week ago. My husband bought one for his newphew and he had me download all the songs into the new IPOD (2nd Generation). Now Im having problems with mine. Everytime I try to charge and usually the screen will pop up to my original music player. This is what it says now when I open or charge my IPOD.
"The File iTunes Library.it! cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes".
Now, that I listen to it...all the music skip. Please help me..what should I do??
Thank you

hi i need help with my ipod nano i want to transfer my music from the ipod to the itunes so that i can be able to transfer the music to my ipad can you help me with that ?

You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like"iPod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to your iTunes library, and then sync your iPad.

Need help with new iPod (kind of kong)

I have a 2nd generation iPod mini with 4GB of music in an outdated iTunes version 5 I think.
I just bought an 80GB iPod classic, and want to know how to go about installing it and putting the music on.
1. Should I uninstall iTunes and then download the newest one, then put all of my music into iTunes that I want on the new iPod?
2. Or just update old iTunes and plug in the 80GB one.
I am not really tech savvy so any help is appreciated! =)

Just update iTunes to the latest version, connect your new iPod to your computer and follow the on screen instructions to register and name it. It will connect to iTunes and prompt you to automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like. You can leave it at manual update or choose to sync music - selected playlists.

Need help with the ipod nano

I installed my ipod nano today and my computer recognizes the ipod but itunes wont' work. when i click on it to start it it brings up the license agreement and then it disappears and itunes never starts. can anyone help?

hi badgirl!
when i click on it to start it it brings up the license agreement and then it disappears and itunes never starts.
gaaah. do you also see a similar sort of thing happen when you try to launch your QuickTime? (a brief flash of the screen, but then nothing?) are you getting absolutely no error messages whatsoever, just the flash and then nothing?
the most likely cause of those symptoms is infestation of your PC by Qoologic adware. the free trial version of Ewido has been cleaning that up for most people:

I need help with my ipod nano!

Hi,
My ipod nano says that it is not on shuffle but if i press one song, it will just skip to a couple songs after that. I tried plugging it into my computer and into my IHome but it still does this.
What Should I do?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Are the songs that it is skipping purchased (all of them)?
If not...

I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

I need help restoreing my ipod nano 3rd gen so its like new

Plug it to your computer using iPod USB Cable (any cable should work excluding iPhone 5 and Shuffle cables)...... when you see your iPod in iTunes go to that iPod and click restore...... the whole process should take (depending on what you have on your iPod and its is up to date) it should take no longer than 30 minutes...... then it will ask if you want to set up as new iPod or restore from back-up (itunes back up), since you said:
so its like new
click set as new iPod and follow through what they said.

Andrew,
The iPod and iTunes are not compatible with Windows ME and the minimum requirements are Windows 2000 with SP4 or XP with SP2 (although I use several iPods and don't have SP2).
If you can't upgrade to one of these, then you can use the iPod with ME if you are prepared to fiddle around a little. However, you won't be able to use iTunes.
See this.
Guide to iPod and Windows ME
You can use iPods purchased in the USA here in the UK. Our family uses 3 such iPods.
You can also use the iPod on any number of computers as this document explains.
Using iPod with multiple computers
Whoever gave you you all this wrong info deserves to be shot!
Just one more thing Andrew. Please start your own topic in future instead of jumping in an interrupting someone else's with an unrelated query. It's know here as "threadjacking" and is against the discussions Terms of Use.
Good luck with ME!

What generation of iPod touch do you have? If you don't know, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353
If you have an first-generation iPod touch, it can only go to iOS 3.1.3 and hence will not run the Facebook app. If you have a second-generation iPod touch, see:

My friend needs help with her ipod

My friend needs help with her Ipod. Here's what happened. She connected her Ipod to a casette adapter and the ipod just froze. She started doing the reset but to no avail. What do you think cause this? She really needs help so if anyone can suggest what to do that would be greatly appreciated.
I don't specifically know her ipod but I think that it is the Ipod 30gb.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
She needs to reset her iPod by holding down Menu and Select for 6-10 seconds...
Resetting iPod
It may take several attempts. The above link also has "tips" if the iPod does not seem to be resetting.
If she has tried many times, along with the "tips" and the iPod still won't reset, then she will have to wait for the iPod's battery to die and then she can charge it back up and it should work fine. The iPod should reset though.

Need help with syncing ipod; managing iTunes from new laptop

I have a new laptop with Win 8. I'm able to open my itune library, but not able to sync with my ipod nano. I would prefer to manage my itunes from my laptop vs our old computer, as this computer is becoming obsolete. Does anyone know how to do this?

What problem are you having?

Need Help Getting New iPod Classic to work on system with existing iPods

I have an iPod shuffle (for workouts) and an iPod photo 60GB which I have had for some time. I have iTunes 8.
Got a new iPod Classic 120 GB for Father's Day - I cannot get it to work with iTunes yet. Plugged it in and nothing happened. iTunes just acted normal, no setup assistant, nothing. Going to reboot and see if it does the same thing, but in the meantime I am hoping someone here can advise.
Thanks in advance,
jf

Turns out, of all things, it was the cable - seems the 'old' cable does not work with new iPods, but the newer cable that comes with Classics works with everything - cable was updated somehow, per Apple.
Thanks,
jf
