On Nano number 8

I have had 8 5th gen Nano's since April. Each time a new one arrives under the warranty I use it once and then it dies. Nothing I do will will revive it and I have tried resetting, draining the battery etc. It syncs fine with Itunes and all software is up to date. The Nike + fails to work properly and I have just about had it with Apple. My previous Nano classic (which was stolen) worked fine for all the time I had it and went well with Nike +. I have used 2 different sync cables and yet nothing will make the Ipod last longer than a couple of days. Any suggestions before I flush it down the toilet

Sounds like something on your computer is messing them up.

  • Hi I was just wondering, if my iPod nano's serial number says that it is eligible, but its screen is not working, am I still eligibile for the iPod nano 1st gen replacement?

    Hi I was just wondering, if my iPod nano's serial number says that it is eligible, but its screen is not working, am I still eligibile for the iPod nano 1st gen replacement?

    Yes. They'll still replace your iPod. Several users have indicated that they have returned damaged iPods and were still given a replacement iPod.

    Hello franciscor,
    Sadly, there isn't much else Apple can do for you in this situation. However, I can tell you that there are a few other methods that can be used to retrieve your iPod's serial number other than from off the unit itself. Check out this Apple support document for more information. Hope it helps.

  • So, I named my new ipod nano 7 and have the serial number on my itunes account. I still am not able to get any podcasts downloaded to it.

    so, I named my new Nano7 and the serial number appears on my itunes account.
    But
    when I have it plugged in it will not download the podcasts I loaded from itunes.
    The podcasts automatically load on my older ipod nano when I plug it in.
    How can I get my new Nano to recieve data?
    thanks

    Before you sync, go to "podcast" in ipod upper menu. Make sure the "sync podcast"is ticked. If not, do accordingly and then sync again. Cheers!

  • I don't know which Apple ID I used to register my Ipod Nano. I had to restore my Computer and now I can't connect my iPod to iTunes again. I have my serial number and ECID

    Hi, I don't know which Apple ID I used to register my Ipod Nano. I had to restore my Computer and now I can't connect my iPod to iTunes again. I have my serial number and ECID. I'm using Windows, BTW, sorry!

    Search your email for the word Logic (and set the search to All) and you should find the receipt (so long as you didn't delete it)
    Other than that.. simply contact Apple directly and ask.. Make sure you have your transaction details ready for them as they will need it...

  • How do i move my 'number of times played' from iPod Nano 4G to iPod Classic?

    I've had an iPod Nano 4th Gen for the past 4 years. I recently got an iPod Classic for Xmas.
    I'm a bit fussy & would like to transfer all the data across from iPod Nano to iPod Classic ... and this includes data such as number of times each song has been played. Preferably for free too.
    How can i do this?
    The closest i've come to a suggestion online is to plug them both in to iTunes & then "drag & drop". Just to point out - this does not work.

    Despite the fiend's confident manner and his curt correction, I believe he is very mistaken about this.  I sensed this was baloney and kept looking, to find a thread in which the same is discussed for iPhone, but it worked on my Classic iPod as well.  (I don't mean to get overly down on a.f, but one should be careful and try to be sure before telling someon they can't do something that seems like a basic function that should by all reason be possible - Not that  all lack of reason doesn't often apply to these products...)
    How to transfer playlist from iPhone to iTunes 11.1.3?
    The procedure described here did work for me, but know this: if I hadn't somehow actively saved an on-the-go list long ago (and forgotten,) I never would have known, because although I have been selecting tons of tracks for "on the go," apparently it erases all lists when you power down, unless you do that deliberate save.  That's right; c beyond all sense of reason (case in point of above) the iPod does not continue to save selections in one growing on-the-go list unless you save it before shut-off.  Saving auto names that list and starts over.  So while I would like to have one big list in which to save all songs for future DJ choices, I will have to have a new list for every time I select even one single song before power off, or POOF gone.  Wish I'd known that before, I stupidly assumed 100 or more songs were saved cause I never checked.
    Check it out and see if it works for you.  Cheers.  And no offense A.F. 
    I guess considering how tedious and dysfuntional this is (also not a first for Apple,)  I will find another way to earmark tracks on the fly, like use a star rating which I've never really used with consistency.  You might consider the same if you have similar purposes.  If you're sitting down and deliberately making a specific list all at once, save it and you should be good to "go."

  • 6th gen ipod nano serial number not being recognised by support

    I have just tried to register my 6th gen ipod nano on Apple's website and I get a message that says the number is not recognised, recheck and try again.  At first used number from nano box, then tried again after connecting nano to computer (same number appears of course) but still not being recognised.  The fact that the serial number is not being recognised is not helpful when you need help from support as they also require this information before they will contact you.  Why is my nano's serial number not being recognised?  More to the point, how do I get apple to recognise it?

    Are you sure aren't mistaking I's for 1's or O's of 0s?
    If you head to Settings - General -> About, does it list the same serial # there?

  • Apple website doen't recognise the serial number on my iPod Nano

    Strange and frustrating!
    I have a 1st generation iPod Nano. I received an email from Apple about a replacement program for the iPod Nano. I have been trying to check my serial number on the apple website, but it is not being recognised.
    I took the product to the apple store in covent garden (london) where the CSR confirmed it looked right, and that if it wasn't being recognised I should email apple to get an answer. But I can't find an email address anywhere, all routes through the official support site seem to end in a dead end. I am bored looking!
    Any advice from the community? it feels like a simple request from the mighty technology company.....to be able to email someone a sensible question! 
    Many Thanks
    Matt

    The Apple Store you visited should have been abled to assist you with the replacement process as well.  Why not just bring it back and have them help you get the process started?

  • IPod Nano Lost Serial Number

    On my Mac, somehow my 2GB Nano had lost it's serial number. As a result it was not possible to update or restore the unit. I needed to restore the unit because it was not functioning correctly.
    Interestingly I opened Windows on my Mac (Boot Camp install), where neither iTunes nor the iPod have been installed before and it went through the new install process. I entered the serial number and it reformatted and installed perfectly. It works as new on WIndows.
    I returned to the Mac operating system and still the serial number was not recognised and it would not restore. I really want the unit to work on the Mac OS as this is where all my music is stored.
    Any ideas how to re-enter the serial number?

  • Can I locate my iPod nano (3rd generation) with the serial number?

    Recently misplaced or lost my nano and wanted to locate/track it using the serial number.

    Others have asked this, and the answer I've always seen is no.

  • IPod Nano (2G) - any way to track serial number?

    I know this has been asked in a few different ways but here is my take...
    My son's iPod nano is missing. We think we know who stole it but I cannot locate my receipt or the case it came in so I cannot locate the serial number. As with all Apple items I have purchased, I did register it with Apple and have all of the apple accounts, etc... Is there a location in iTunes or through Apple where iPods registered to me are listed? I have been searching and searching to no avail. I gotta find this serial number.
    Before anyone lectures me... I know, I know... keep track of your stuff. There are some extenuating circumstances here... Just looking for some HELP !

    There is a [email protected] email address I found that you could ask them if they could send you the serials. Although, being a not-secure method, I doubt they would just send them out. But it might get a dialog started by which you can get the information. Maybe if you sent them the other serial numbers to compare against, they could send you the one you are missing.
    Good luck. I googled finding registered products and it looks like there used to be a way via the Apple website, but it is no longer possible.
