New iPod nano no docking

i bought a new 4th generation nano and it works fantasticly, except that it doesn't charge when i dock it with my ihome. It plays music through it, but does not charge. is there anything i can do?

Buy an adaptor if one becomes available that will fit the iHome connector.

Why has the new ipod nano no connector for a speaker dock? The white blank at the bottom looks as if one was intended, but then there were design problems?

Recommendations for speaker/charge dock for new iPod Nano 5th generation 8g

I have searched and searched for a speaker/charging combo dock for my new iPod Nano 5th generation 8gb player. None of them specifty they work with this latest iPod version.
Any recommendations?

I think I have the same question more or less. I bought a cheap Best Buy memorex speaker docking station and I need a male to female IPOD cable so that I can Play the radio and charge the IPOD at the same time as well of course have the head phone jack plugged into the Line In that acts as the antenna.
So if I had the Male to Female cable My dock would charge and the cable to the line in acts as a Antenna. I think this makes sense..

New ipod nano no longer fits dock

Just received my new ipod Nano, but it no longer fits into the docks on my home audio components. Is there an adapter or something that will fix this? Thank-you.

HT5479 My brand new ipod nano is no longer connedting to my brand new jbl wireless speaker. It worked fine the first day and now either cannot find the apeaker or the connection "fails." Any advice?

I bought my dad a new ipod nano and a jbl wireless speaker from the same apple store. Everything worked perfectly with the bluetooth connectivity the first day. Then my dad accidentally hit the "forget this device" button when he was trying to turn the bluetooth off. Now the nano either does not recognize the device or it will recognize the device but not connect. I would appreciate any advice.

Does it charge on a computer? Does it appear in iTunes?
If so:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

Why won't my new iPod nano work with griffin itrip?

I just receiveed a new ipod nano as part of the replacement programme, but it will not work with my griffin itrip or my old speakers even though the connection is the same - anyone know why?
thanks

I used an iTrip with my old Classic 160, but when I got my 6th gen nano, it wouldn't work either. My iTrip was old, and the connector had lost it's plastic bits, so I thought that might be the reason. I could still use my Logitech speaker dock, so I don't think they changed the connector.

Your AV audio cable kit will not work with the 3rd Generation Nano

Will the new iPod Nano fit in my speakers?

I recently bought an Intempo RDI Speaker for my iPod Classic. It's last years iPod Classic (80GB). I was wondering whether the new iPod Nano (4th Gen) would work in my new speaker. Because i don't want to spend more money updating my speaker which i have just bought. I'm hoping the iPod Nano has the normal dock thing so it will fit.

It has a dock connector so it should play music fine. But the new iPods only charge on 5 volts (the older ones could charge on 5 or 12). If your speakers charge with 12 volts they will not charge the new iPods.
A lot of devices charge at 12 volts (even Apples own Hi-Fi) but most companies seem to be keeping this secret, if you are lucky there will be an FAQ on the company website that will tell you if it's compatible with the iPhone G3 (the first 5v only device).

Brand new ipod nano will work when attached by cable either to a power adaptor or usb port but stops immediately when disconnected, despite being put on charge with different adaptors. Battery indicator remains constantly on lightning flas symbol and whit

My Brand New ipod nano (sold to me two days ago by Apple as replacement for previous ipod nano -15 months old and therefore out of warranty - which had suddenly stopped functioning altogether) will operate only when attached by cable to either power adapter, usb port on my laptop or when playing on a docking station. When detached, it stops playing and screen goes dark and it will not respond to any buttons, despite being charged several times for many hours on different chargers. The battery indicator stays on lightning flash symbol on white background and has only momentarily shown fully charged symbol once !
I am baffled as to why this new ipod has a similar problem to the old ipod.
Is there a virus out there which can have this effect and which I may have picked up on my Pc and have inadvertently transferred to both ipods when sync-ing ?
My PC has Norton anti-virus software.
Any suggestions , please ?

Sounds like the Nano has a faulty battery. You should be able to have Apple swap it out again for you at no cost.

I don't want to sync my new ipod nano with all my music on my mac. i only want to put on certain albums. how do i transfer some of the music but not all? thank you.

i want to add music to my new ipod nano but i don't want to sync all the music onto the nano from my mac. how do i transfer some of the music but not all? thank you.

Hello,
It is 2015 and iTunes still wants to tell me what to listen to. This problem still persists. The only solution I have found is to select "Manual ..." and pick one by one the items to sync.
When I select items to sync by artist or genre they do copy to the device. Then iTunes continues randomly selecting music until the device is full. When I want to load the Nano for a road trip I don't want 20% of the tracks to be Chakra meditation. When little Nano is docked on the nightstand alarm clock I DON'T want to hear Motorhead, Ministry, etc.
For all the effort aPple puts into seamless integration and ease of use ... Why the heck is it so hard to say NO? Sync these tracks and NOT those. Stop asking me to log in to your cloud service BTW. I do not want it.
Thanks,

Some Feedback on the New iPod Nano

Hey!
I really would like to get the new ipod Nano. I have never had an iPod before. I have been reading a lot of websites, forum posts here and MacRumors, iLounge, Cnet, as many places on the web as I could find that seemed to have credible info on the new iPods. I think the Touch is too difficult for my non-techie brain to handle and the shuffle does not have the FM Tuner. I read some good things about the Nano, mostly from exercisers, which is why I am buying it. But, I read more negative posts about the iPod Nano from people calling it a major mistake, a waste of money, etc. So after reading all the negative stuff about it I wanted to find out if this stuff is true, just due to the new Nano being so different then the previous Nano or what.
There seemed to be a lot of people bringing them back since they could not turn it off, but in my research it appears the Nano does not "turn off" per se but if done right it will sleep and not use hardly any battery power. There has been some complaints about the ear phone jack not inserting tight enough so it moves around and causes some crackling noise when using the ear phones. I would be getting some higher-end ear phones, but not sure if that would help or affect the antenna component that is in the ear phone cord of the Apple ear phones that come with the Nano.
I read some good things about it too. I was disappointed when I read that you can't sort the music into certain genre tunes or various exercise music according to beats per min once it is transferred to the Nano. I have no idea if this is true, what is true but really is not a big deal for a person using it for exercise.
I read from a lot of posts that this was a big mistake on Apple's part. I listened to the Nano at the Apple Store, it sounded OK to me. I have not seen any cases for it to keep the sweat off of it and when I do exercise, especially run and bike, I sweat like a pig--oh, pigs do not sweat.
Any feedback about all of these kinds of rumors or facts? Anybody care to share with me with their experience? Any opinions on the ear phone that come with the Nano or the Apple in the ear phones. Also, is it necessary to get the USB (white) charge adapter the iPhone uses for this ipod? I hear it can be plugged into the computer but if it sleeps it does not charge it. I have no idea how long it takes for an empty battery to fully charge.
I was also wondering what the 30 pin adaptor or the adaptor that comes with the Nano, is for. Is that to hook up to a dock?
Thanks for any opinions, thoughts, suggestions that anybody wants to share with me.

Feedback from individuals is neither rumor nor fact. It's just their opinion. How much credence to give the opinions of people you don't know is always a challenging question. I tend to give less to people who sound like their whining or who obviously have unrealistic expectaions or didn't do their research or won't even try to troubleshoot issues. People who sound reasonable, who give a balanced evaluation (i.e. NOT "This Nano is the worst thing Apple ever made!!!"), I'll pay more attention to.
I have one. I like it. Because of the cold weather and busy season at work, I haven't done much running in the last month. My Nano has been sitting, asleep on my nightstand. Hardly any battery drain. Yes, most computers wont' charge through the USB port if they are asleep. I use mine often enough that I don't have any problem charging my Nano.
Can't answer your questions about sorting by genre as I never do that and I don't have the Nano here with me to look at it. I make playlists based on BPM on my computer. This works for me.
I replace my 3rd gen Shuffle with this Nano. I liked the size of the Shuffle but was never happy with not having a screen. I'd always end up unable to find what I wanted to listen to. With the Nano, I have the benefits of the size, the clip but I can easily find what I want.
In my personal opinion all the headsets Apple ships with iPods are horrible. They are uncomfortable and won't stay in my ears. I throw them away. I have a pair of Etymotic ER6i's that I love. They are in canal, passive noise cancelling headsets that are not that expensive. The fit me. I can sleep in them. They don't fall out when running. There are lots of opinions on headsets.
I sweat a lot when I run. I just don't clip the Nano inside my clothes. Or where sweat from my face would drip on it.
So, I think the Nano works very well for the type of exercise I do. I've been very satisfied.

I have many very old songs on my PC and want to move them to my new IPOD Nano 7th. How do I do this?

I want to put all of my real old songs in my PC library onto my new IPOD Nano 7th generation. How do I do this?

Import them into an iTunes library if needed, and then sync the iPod with that library.

Can i use my new ipod nano 7th generation on my macbook pro

I registered my new ipod nano 7th generation on my macbook pro. While on my macbook, I tried to download wma audiobooks from the library using overdrive media console & its not working.....so, I decided to use my windows laptop. I have the latest version of itunes on both laptops. (I know I can download & transfer wma audiobooks to my shuffle using overdrive media console & windows laptop.) I'm getting an error message that says I have to reformat my nano if I want to download wma audiobooks. Can I use my nano on macbook pro & windows laptop? will I ever be able to download wma audiobooks to my nano using macbook?

Your iPod Nano will need to be restored in iTunes on the Windows laptop before you can start adding/syncing content over to it.
Or if you want to use it with OverDrive on the Mac, you'll need to download the books as MP3s as WMA is not supported.

How do you use new ipod nano with Itunes 10.6.3. I have MBP and it lists itunes 10.6.3 as most current version and won't let me install itunes 11

The seventh generation iPod nano requires at least iTunes 10.7 and Mac OS X 10.6.
