New iPod Nano - Do Not Disconnect

I have an iPod and a new iPod Nano connected to my PC. The iPod message on iTunes is "Update Complete, OK to Disconnect". The iPod Nano message on iTunes is "Update Complete" and the screen on the Nano still says Do Not Disconnect. Is this normal? Do I need to eject the Nano each time?

hi Mi Ja!
The iPod message on iTunes is "Update Complete, OK to Disconnect". The iPod Nano message on iTunes is "Update Complete" and the screen on the Nano still says Do Not Disconnect. Is this normal? Do I need to eject the Nano each time?
i had this happening to me for a month with attractive beast ("Update complete, OK to disconnect") and mauve ("Update Complete" etc), before i worked out what was going on.
next time you have the nano plugged in, head into your itunes "ipod" preference tab, and check to see if you have "Enable disk use" checked. if you do, uncheck it and click okay. after a moment or two, the nano should be behaving like the ipod.
(this will also happen if you have the nano in manual mode. if you switch back to automatic synching, on my girls "enable disk use" is left selected ... you need to uncheck that "enable disk use" box as well.)
hope this is all that is happening to you ... keep us posted.
love, b

  • My new ipod nano is not recognized by my itunes and I have tried the trouble shooting tips

    my new ipod nano is not recognized by my itunes and I have tried the trouble shooting tips

    This came from another thread, but worked for me.  Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62 and Windows 8.1.  Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update).  Reboot, and reinstall iTunes.  It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano.  Good luck.

  • MY new Ipod Nano does not hold a charge.  I use it mostly as a watch, perhaps look at it 5 or 6 times in 8 hours, and leave it in sleep mode the rest of the time.  I drains to the red line in less than 2 days.  My husband's nano will last a week this way.

    You are still under warranty if your iPod is "new."  Take full advantage of it by either calling iPod tech support, Apple Care if you have it or take it in to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.

  • My new ipod nano does not sync the ipod name cannot be synced the required disk cannot be found

    my new ipod nano does not sync the ipod name cannot be synced the required disk cannot be found

    Wow .... so you are syncing via WiFi when you sync .... would that be correct?
    I would still quit iTunes and then restart and see what happens. The iPad and iTunes must be playing some weird games.
    If you do sync via WiFi (I do), I think you are better off closing iTunes when you are done - unless of course you are using iTunes for Home Sharing or something like that. My experience is that if you leave iTunes running, the iPad and iTunes just start sending weird signals back and forth.
    Since I started Wifi syncing, I have seen messages in iTunes that made absolutely no sense at all. Anyway, that's my take on it. If you do not WiFi sync, then I have no clue why you are getting these messages.

  • Solved: New iPod nano 8g not seen in My Computer/iTunes after Apple Support

    I received this iPod as a Christmas gift and it has taken months to get it working but I am happy to say I finally did. I wanted to post what I did to solve the problem in case anyone else is having the same issue.
    Background Information:
    - Windows XP operating system (I had to upgrade to SP 2 just for this iPod)
    - Computer works fine with an older iPod nano
    - New iPod nano would simply bring up the "Install Hardware Wizard" and always resulted in "Cannot Install Hardware"
    - Nothing would show up in My Computer
    - iPod would say "Connected, Eject before disconnecting" when it was connected
    - Under "Services" iPod service was running & Started
    - Under "Device Manager" iPod showed up under "Other Devices" with an exclamation/question mark for "iPod" (note: this did not show up under USB controllers)
    What I Have Tried That Didn't Work:
    - Downloading new iTunes. I did this a few times and ended up with 7.6.1.9
    - Uninstall and reinstall iTunes and Quicktime
    - Tried Install Hardware Wizard option to search for drivers in c:\WINNT\inf (or c:\windows\inf if that's what you have)
    - Restarted computer several times and tried creating a new user in Windows XP
    - Tried going to "Right-click-My Computer"-"Manage"-"Device Manager" and uninstalled any instance of iPod (under "Other Devices") and tried refreshing / re-installing
    - Tried stopping and restarting the iPod service in "Services"
    - Tried restarting iPod, resetting it, all those 5 R's and other Apple support docs online
    - Tried finding answers in forums
    - Finally today I spent a few hours on the phone with Apple Support, and after repeating everything in their self-help documents online, and it still didn't work, they said "Call Microsoft and tell them you have a driver issue" and that my new iPod needed some additional driver (which is why old iPod works but not new)
    So that's where I left off this afternoon. I think I've seen people who haven't had much luck getting Microsoft support to help with iPod issues, so I continued searching online. I tried updating my Video driver from the Gateway.com website and that didn't work.
    On the microsoft.com website, the best I could find was a registry change which told me to delete registry keys for UpperFilters and LowerFilters, which I didn't even have so I couldn't try.
    Finally, here is the solution to what worked:
    I searched for iPod - specific drivers, and on some random help forum - http://www.computing.net/hardware/wwwboard/forum/43267.html
    You'll see they mention "usbstor.inf" which needs to be in c:\winnt\inf (or c:\windows\inf). I checked my computer and it was missing. Luckily, it was there on my work laptop which was also recently upgraded to Windows XP so I e-mailed it to myself (glad I didn't have to trust some one online).
    I also followed his directions to add "usbstor.sys" from c:\winnt\servicepack files\i386\ to c:\winnt\system32\drivers.
    Lastly, I saw some other usb*.inf and usb*.pnf files on my laptop so I decided what-the-heck, I'll grab them all since I only had usbvideo.inf, and thus I extracted the following into my c:\winnt\inf directory: usb.inf, usb.pnf, usbport.inf, usbport.pnf, usbprint.pnf, usbprint.inf, usbstor.pnf, usbtor.inf.
    I restarted my computer and right away my iPod magically appeared in MyComputer and when I opened iTunes, it was also successfully there. Funny thing is, Windows Install Hardware Wizard popped up and I pointed it to that directory -- guess what, it didn't work. Apparently that doesn't matter. Every time I plug in my iPod now, I will just skip the "Install New Hardware Wizard" and go straight to iTunes.
    I know this was lengthy but I thought I could save some one else hours of checking around--- just go look in your "inf" directory and make sure you have the usbstor.inf file!
    Good luck!!!!

  • NEW IPOD NANO WILL NOT CONNECT CORRECTLY TO 2011 KIA SPORTAGE

    Have a new Ipod nano. when I connect it to 2011 Kia Sportage it does not display the song list correctly. Have cable that Kia sells and it worked with my old Nano but not not the new one. Same results with cable that came with new nano. Help please

    Alternatively, you can always use a double ended 3.5mm audio plug and just manipulate the playlist via the iPod and not the radio.

  • New IPOD Nano will not sync.  iTunes recognizes it, I think.  It knows its there and says I can transfer purchases from it but it will not let me sync it to my existing itunes.

    I received a new IPOD nano for CHristmas.  Itunes shows it there on summary, it is showing with the eject symbol.
    However, when I go to file/sync, it allows me to transfer purchases but not sync it.  It also does not show up in my playlist like my older NANO does.
    I have reset, I have toggled security on and off.  I am current on the software on both my IPOD and ITunes.

    I was having the same problem...plugged in my new device and although I was able to set it up and it was recognized in iTunes, hit the sync button and nothing...even when it said it was syncing, still nothing. I am not sure this will work for you but I did two things that were suggested in this forum in combination with one another.
    First, I plugged my Nano into different USB port on my laptop from the one I was using. when I reconnected, my devie again was displayed in the top right corner. I clicked on it and the summary page appeared. The one thing I hadn't done is go to the "music" tab. When I arrived there I found that the "sync music" tab was unchecked for some reason. I checked the block and instantly the download started.
    As I said, I don't know if you have tried this or if it will even work for you but after an hour of frustration...I felt a little silly that it was something so simple I had negelected and thought I would share.
    Good  luck!

  • Can't sync new ipod nano - music not added

    My old ipod was stolen...bought a new ipod nano and I'm trying to sync...went to account to edit and tried to change computers...clicked on change country but there is still $.13 left on the account so it will not let me change computers...help please

    Hey danlizmil,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you want to move music from your iPod nano to your new computer, and you’re using the Transfer Purchases command in iTunes which isn’t copying music that wasn’t purchased from the iTunes Store. Take a look at the article linked below, it describes the supported ways to move your music to a new computer and provides more information about the Transfer Purchases feature.

  • Brand New iPod Nano will not do anything

    My mother's new Ipod nano 4th generation will not do anything. It has been plugged into the USB for close to twelve hours (not in sleep mode) and it is still completely unresponsive. Shouldn't it be charged by now? The hold switch is off. It is not recognized by the computer. I have hooked it up to different computers including a brand new Macbook and it still does the same thing. I've tried resetting and restarting it using the method on the Apple site but it is still completely unresponsive. All that is on the screen is the Apple logo--nothing else.

    it's always a good idea when u first use a new ipod with a computer to restore it with the ipod updater to makes sure everything is all rosey with the format and then load up the songs so u can walk through the ipod set assistant. this should fix it right up. just restore it

  • New iPod Nano 5G Not Recognized

    Okay, this is a weird one.
    I bought an iPod Nano from Apple and it is not recognized by my Mac Pro. My Macbook sees it just fine and so does a Windows PC at work.
    I've followed the troubleshooting found in TS1410 on Apple Support. In addition, on the very same Mac Pro with the same USB cable and USB port, iTunes sees my iPhone perfectly fine.
    When I click on Apple, About this Mac, click More Info to launch System Profile and look under USB, it sees my iPod Nano as well. However, the iPod Nano does not show up in finder or my Mac Pro.
    Any ideas on possible troubleshooting?

    Oddly enough, after another reboot, it is now working.
    Good luck to everyone else!

  • New Ipod Nano 7 not synching to iTunes MacBook air

    Help!  I bought a new Ipod Nano generation 7 which I cannot synch to ITunes (11.2.1(1)) using my MacBook Air, OS X 10.7.5.  I have iTunes Match.
    I read through the boards and tried everything:
    - using a different USB port
    - reseting the iPod
    - Updating Itunes
    - ensuring synch is checked under music
    - trying to synch with just one song checked
    - yelling at the iPod and then crying myself to sleep
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks!

    I have this question too

  • My new iPod nano does not get the battery life that is advertised

    Help me my iPod nano does not get the battery life that is advertised

    Which battery life are you referring to? Apple's website states the iPod Nano 6th Gen will get "up to 24 hours of music playback when fully charged". There are going to be a lot of things that can change that. Are you using the stopwatch or the count down timer a lot? Are you using the FM radio a lot? Any accessories that you are using with the iPod? These will all have an effect on your battery life.
