Old Library New Ipod Nano

Hi Im about to purchase the new nano because my old (2nd generation) nano's battery died. I was told that i needed to download the software from the apple website and upload on my laptop. Just a little bit concerned that my old library wont recognise the new ipod. By the way i dont have internet connection so i will have to download and save the software to disc and then transfer to my computer. Will this work ok? The existing itunes i have hasnt been updated for about 2 years because i dont have internet at home.

You will need to update iTunes likely, especially if it is not even in the 7.x range of versions. Normally when you update your iTunes version, you entire library should remain intact and ready to use after the update.
You didn't mention if you use Windows or Mac but on Macs, you would also need to be running at least Tiger (10.4.x).
Good luck,
Patrick

  • 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.

  • HT1727 I lost my old iPod and bought a new one. The old one had many of MY personally owned and legally bought CDs on it. I have those iTunes backed up ant now I can't seem to "synch" them to the new iPod nano.

    I can't seem to synch my new iPod nano to the legally purchased music from CDs that had been on my old iPod which I've lost.
    I had a backup of all those iTunes that I want to import to the new nano.
    How can I "synch" the new iPod nano to the music I see in an iTune library? The new iPod nano displays "no music" and
    doesn't play anything.

    Hello PrettyinPinkInk,
    You might consider restoring the iPhone, then removing the SIM card after activating the iPhone, so as to use it as an iPod Touch. This should prevent any unwanted association with a phone number, and thus, voicemail, as well.

  • 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!

  • How do I transfer songs from my old ipod touch to the new ipod nano?

    I just got the new Ipod nano and I want to get the music i already have to transfer from my old ipod touch to the new nano, how can I do this?

    If your iPod touch music is in your iTunes library, you just need to sync the new iPod nano with iTunes, the songs will be transfer to your new iPod. If not, you can follow this guide to transfer the songs from iPod touch to iTunes first, and then re-sync them to your new iPod. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • I have iTunes on my iPad. I have a new iPod nano. How do I connect iPod to iPad to download iTunes and music library?

    I have iTunes on my iPad. I have a new iPod nano. How do I connect iPod to iPad to download iTunes and music library?

    Hi Divine Inspiration,
    You wouldn't connect the iPod to the iPad for data transfers. Music is stored and shared either through a computer or iCloud.
    This article gives an overview of moving music and data off the iPad.

  • Just bought a brand new ipod nano and downloaded an audiobook borrowed from the local library.  The book is there and playing but, I cannot hear anything.  What am I doing wrong?

    just bought a brand new ipod nano and downloaded an audiobook borrowed from the local library.  The book is there and playing but, I cannot hear anything.  What am I doing wrong?

    Does the same file play normally in iTunes?  Do other audiobooks play normally on the iPod?
    How does "borrowing" work?  Does it require use of another app, other than iTunes, to get it on the iPod?

  • When I download from iTunes to my new iPod nano, can I select only the one folder I have made for download -- do not want my whole music library to be synched.

    Am I able to download only a selected music folder I have created in iTunes to my new iPod nano?  I do not want to download my whole music library.  Want to know before whole site sync starts up automatically.

    What you CAN do is create a playlist in iTunes containing all the content you wish to be synced to your Nano.  Then configure your Nano to sync only that one playlist from under the iPod's Music configuration tab in iTunes.

  • Making new ipod nano 7th gen an exact copy of old ipod nano 5th gen?

    I just purchased the new ipod nano 7th gen, I have an ipod nano 5th gen, and I'm wondering if there is a simple way of making the new nano an exact copy of the old one, e.i. all the same content, settings, etc? I read through the manual and couldn't find anything about it. Thanks for any help!

    He is right that if you want to copy the content, do it through iTunes. As for the settings, some aren't identical with the 5g. For example, there is no option to edit menus or the main app icons (adding/removing) like in previous iPod nanos. I hope the put this feature back in soon.
    Your best bet is to just go through the settings by hand again; there aren't that many. Sorry if this isn't the answer you were hoping for.

    I have been given a new ipod nano to replace my much loved but old ipod. When I plug it into my laptop to sync it I get an error message stating "itunes.exe - entry point not found. The procedure entry point AVCFAAssetCreateWithByteStreanAndOptions could not be located in the dynamic link library

  • Microphone for new iPod nano?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if there is a microphone you can buy for the new iPod Nano? I record a lot of acoustic music and need to get it into my iTunes Library. I'd rather not carry my iBook around.
    Thanks
    Aluminum iPod Nano, iBookG4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    the new nanos can do recording - the old ones cant.
    im confused, is this nano your speaking about the
    black glossy one?, cuase if it is the microphone
    is
    not compatible with it is it?
    the new nanos are the 2 generation of the old ones, only apple snatched the samsung glossy nanos since they had the patent and jumped on it at that quarter year, yes seccess story.
    But as i remember, they all record yet apple never provided a microphone solution for them., and the older iPods all have accesories like mics etc etc. and all the new iPods do not, or maybe the 30 and 60 gigs do but are very expensive.
    Can anyone confirm how to record on a nano and what mics to get?
