New ipod works in speaker but is not snug - suggestions?

I bought a new nano today because my mini broke a few days ago. (middle click button hasn't been working for a few months and the back button stopped working yesterday i got fed up and decided i needed a new toy lol) I have speakers for my mini. It came with attachments for the regular ipod and the mini. They are about a year old and I'm pretty sure it didn't come with nano attachments. The nano still works with the speakers, but whenever i press on a button on the nano it moves. It doesn't come out of place but I wonder is this bad for my nano? Since I didn't want to buy expensive apple speakers the attachment for that nano that came with my second generation doesn't fit.
So does anyone know if putting my nano in the speakers is bad for it? Would you suggest i use my mini adapter for the speakers or just let it go without an adapter. Either way it doesn't fit but I wonder if one is better. Any help would be appreciated!

As you have already discovered the iPod connectors align properly. The problem is that the Nano is not properly supported, and constant flexing (when you push the ClickWheel, causes strain on the iPod connector. The connector could break...and it will not be covered by the warranty.

My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties

My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties.
First off, I'm using Windows XP (and Mac SnowLeopard) Here's how it started. For some reason my ipod started showing up as a camera when I plugged it in. It works fine in itunes, though. But when I tried to access it from "my computer" it only
showed me the one and only picture I had on my ipod. I deleted that picture hoping it would no longer show up as a camera. When it still did I right-clicked on it in "my computer" and selected "properties". Under "autoplay" I
chose for it to 'not show up' or 'take no action' or some such deal when I plugged it in. I thought that would stop it from popping up the window that asks whether i want to 'open camera wizard' or 'open camera scanning' or 'open folder to view files' or 'take
no action' , etc. But now it won't show up in "my computer" at all. I also have a Mac with SnowLeopard. When I plugged my ipod into it my ipod doesn't show up in "finder" either! So basically my problem is not a mechanical one with hardware
or software; yht ipod still works fine in itunes. I just need to undo the change I made. I've searched all around my preferences, utilities, options, etc. It shows up on my "Device Manager" but not on "Disk Management".
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
To show up in Windows Explorer, you can try placing the iPod into
disk mode.
Moreover, i recommend you to
restore ipod to factory settings.
If this issue still persists, locate to device manager, uninstall and reinstall USB Mass Storage Device driver.

Bought new iPod (#5 in family) but now not all music xfering that used to

Yep, purchased 5th iPod. However, some of the songs my daughter's purchased isn't showing up on mine or their iPod's, and we get the msg that I can't have more than 5 accounts. Okay, but what exactly does this mean? I don't have multiple names in my iTunes Music folder. Please tell me why this is a rule for people who don't try to steal music, and are there any exceptions since I spend my hard earned money and reward my family members with their own (not to mention 'word of mouth' promoting I do for Apple...) I have one pc at home. I did load my iTunes at work, but I don't really use it there, so I'll deauthorize it tomorrow. One other thing, I loaded my mom's iPod on my pc to start out, because she needed me to help her with it the day she bought it, and she lives 5 hours away, so who wouldn't help their mom? But, I've spent a lot of money on iTunes music, and I can't listen to some of it until this thing gets figured out... What up? And how can this get worked out to my satisfaction (please)? Thanks, ahead of time! KC

Sorry I can't answer your questions, but I can recommend the iTunes support site as an excellent resource:

iTunes' built-in Help menu might also be able to answer some of your questions.

I have a new ipod touch (in box) but im not sure which generation it is

i was wondering if there is any way to tell by a SN or something, whether it is the new one or old.
it was purchased after the 2nd gen one had already been out for a day or so.
but yeah its in the box and its 8gb but it doesnt say which generation.. thx

If it's in a clear plastic case, and you see a black volume control on the left side, its a second generation. if it's in a John Lennon box, it's first gen.

My ipod touch is not syncing properly. I have updated the software to the latest (2.2.1) and have even resored it. Itunes says it is working and updated but will not sync and apps. Error message says that app will not sync because a newer version needed

My ipod touch (model A1213) is not syncing properly. I have updated the software to the latest (2.2.1) and have even resored it. Itunes says it is working and updated but will not sync and apps. Error message says that app will not sync because a newer version needed.

2.2.1 is not the latest available for any ipod touch.
Is yours the original ipod touch?

TS3716 My relatively new ipod touch 16 gb either does not show up as a drive or everytime says it does not recognize my ipod when connected to add music. I didn't have problems loading music originally, but this is a new occurrence. Could you help?

My relatively new ipod touch 16 gb either does not show up as a drive or everytime says it does not recognize my ipod when connected to add music. I didn't have problems loading music originally, but this is a new occurrence. Could you help?

Hey, Thanks a lot. It took quite a bit of time to resurrect this ipod. I tried the upgrade again, but still would not recognize my ipod. So I went to the next step and reset my ipod, wiping of all of the information like it was new. This helped my laptop see the ipod on itunes, but did not sync. So, I deleted the itunes off my computer completely, restarted and then reinstalled the newest itunes, and then restarted. Finally, it recognized my ipod and started to download each song. It took awhile as there was 602 songs, but finally it works. Yea!!! I never had any problem with my old nano, but this touch has been another animal for sure. Thank you again and also the community for information. This was a helpful forum and will recommend to others if they get stuck with their ipod or iphone. Take care, Karen

My ipod touch is on but is not bright enough i try to turn it off but it wont work what should i do?

my ipod touch is on but is not bright enough i try to turn it off but it wont work what should i do?

Did you make sure that the brightness is turned up to max in Settings/Brightness?
Is anything covering the brightness sensor?
Brightness
Screen brightness affects battery life. Dim the screen to extend the time before you need to recharge iPod touch, or use Auto-Brightness.
Adjust the screen brightness: Go to Settings > Brightness and drag the slider.
Set whether iPod touch adjusts screen brightness automatically
Go to Settings > Brightness and turn Auto-Brightness on or off. If Auto-Brightness is on, iPod touch adjusts the screen brightness for current light conditions using the built-in ambient light sensor.
page 103, ipod touch user guide 5
See if you can fix it by resetting the device.
To reset, hold the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again.
If this does not work, set it up as new device:

Ipod Classic 160GB connects but does not sync to new itunes

I'm having a lot of trouble after installing the latest itunes. My iTunes picks up the ipod as a device but will not sync with it. I've tried to just sync it, ive shut down itunes and turned the ipod off and tried, i've ticked the box that says "convert higher bit rate songs to 128kps AAC" and tried to sync and unticked the box and tried as well. I have also tried going to File ->Devices->sync, and the sync button is shaded so i can't click on it. I have also reset it to factory settings and tried. I'm out of ideas, does anyone else have any?

Hello DeclanConky
Check out the article below to troubleshoot if it is software or hardware. Try starting up in Safe Mode or try it out in another user. Also when you removed iTunes, did you remove the other associated files Apple in the specific order indicated in the second article? Let me know if this works out or need to continue troubleshooting.

What happens when you try to install the iTunes update? Error messages?
You might have better luck posting in the iTunes forum sinc you have an iTunes problem, not an iPod problem.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.

Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon,

I got a new iPod nano 7th gen., but when I tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Some of the videos in your iTunes library cannot be copied to your iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod.

I got a new iPod nano 7th gen, but when i tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Soem of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to yor iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod. What should I do?

I kept having a similar problem - 3 out of the 10 videos I had on iTunes wouldn't sync. They were in the right format and I KNEW they worked on my iPod because I'd RECORDED them on my iPod. I finally figured out what to do! Go to the movies in your iTunes library. Click on one that does not sync. Click on "Advanced" at the top of iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version". Once that's finished, be sure you delete the old version so you don't keep getting the error (or have 2 copies of the same video) and sync. This should eliminate the problem. At least it did for me!

A new ipod has been detected but cannot be identified. [drivers?]

Yes -that again- the reason I'm making a new post is that this is the second time an ipod hasn't worked with me, I would like to know if there's something I can do to my system or whatever to repair it. Here's the situation.
- Just so ya know, I use Vista on a laptop [unfortunatley]
- Previously [as in yesterday] I had an ipod touch, it was stuck in recovery mode and nothing [and I mean nothing] worked to recover it, it wasn't being recognized at all. This problem occured when I installed Itunes 9.
- Today I bought myself a brand new iPod Nano (5th Gen) for several reasons [not just to do with the itouch breaking, I was sick to death of the thing in general], took it home and connected it. 'A new ipod has been detected but cannot be identified' yadda yadda.
- I tried everything, I have also downgraded my itunes back to 8, still the same message!! Argh! Here's the thing (that I think might be causing the problem) when I open Device Manager and go to Universal Serial Bus Controllers, there is no apple/ipod recognized. There is a 'USB Mass Storage Device' whch has an error symbol next to it, I've tired updating/reinstalling it etc and it doesn't work ):
- Is there anything anyone can do? I'm so sick of ipods breaking on me. Just so you guys know, I'm not completley computer savvy so i'll need precise instructions, thanks so much to anyone who can help me.

This is how it's displayed: http://i50.tinypic.com/nd7vk7.jpg
And this is what happens when I click properties and 'search for solutions': http://i47.tinypic.com/2iu3vrc.jpg (the box disappears after that, apparently having done nothing, when I search online for software it informs me my computer already has the best/latest installed)
I use a Toshiba Satelite L350-170, my Vista is a 32-bit Thankyou!

You are referring to OFFICE 2010, not Windows XP or 7.
And which version of Windows do you have?
NEVER begin before you have a backup, ideally one you have tested and know works.
You don't really install Boot Camp, the Assistant is a partition tool utility.
You may just want Office 2008 for Mac.
If you need Office for Windows, perhaps run Windows in a VM like Parallels or Fusion.
Buy some backup drives and start using TimeMachine for one backup, then weekly backup with SuperDuper.
IF there is now a partition for Windows, all you need is to buy Windows, and I would recommend Windows 7 Home Premium (retail) which is about US$149.
Has nothing to do with free space. Office 2010 isn't to boot from. In fact, you can copy the disc to a folder (1.25GB) and run SETUP from there.

Upgraded to 11.1.4.62. Now iTunes is saying "An iPod has been detected, but could not be identified properly. Disconnect then reconnect ..." I removed iTunes and reinstalled. I stopped and started the service. I reset the iPod. When I put it in disk

I upgraded to 11.1.14.62 this morning. Not iTunes is saying "An iPod had been detected but could not be identified properly". I unlugged/replugged in. I reset the iPod, I removed iTunes and reinstalled. I'ver tried three different cables.
When I put the iPod in disk mode it shows up briefly as a disk then goes away.
Any ideas?

Hi there - I've spoken with Apple and here is their response (worked for me). You need to uninstall not only iTunes, but also (in this order):
1) iTunes
2) Apple Software Update
3) Apple Mobile Device Support
4) Bonjour
5) Apple Application Support
Then you restart your computer.
Then you install the latest version of iTunes (which will reinstall all those things you uninstalled).
Then you restart your computer again.
Mine is working perfectly again now.
I hope it works for you,
Carmen.
