Please Help ipod software not on ipod nano

I have accidently deleted the software off my boyfriends ipod nano and now there is nothing on it at all. Stupid thing to do i know formatted it cause he wanted the songs taken off but did it the wrong way and got rid of everything.
Do any of you know how to get the software back on the ipod? Have tried transferring it off another ipod but it still doesnt work.
Please Help
Thankyou

Download the latest version of the iPod updater program from Apple, install it, and then run it. While it's running, have the iPod connected and pick the option to Restore the iPod. that will put a fresh copy of the ipod software back on it.

    the apps we have downloaded are not working,  please help,  extremely frustrated with our ipod 4

    See my previous reply for for the apps closing.
    For the wifi problem:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect OK before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network       
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - 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.

    I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

    If you are unable to get the iPod into Disk Mode to try and restore it, it's a very good indication, as mentioned in the article, that the iPod's hard drive is damaged and in need of replacement either by Apple or a third party repair company.

    Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions
    1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    3. Restoring iPod touch after forgotten passcode
    4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
    5. iOS- Understanding passcodes
    6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
    You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
    Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

    please help me out! my ipod doesn't show any thing in my screen. please can someone helphelp me please T^T.
    or could someone teach me to open a ipod photo on. i want to check inside is it find?

    Try resetting it. If that doesn't help, try restoring it.
    There are no user serviceable parts inside an iPod, and opening it will void the warranty.

    Can I still download iPod software updates?
    Yes, assuming they're compatible with that iPod model. iOS 4 can't be used on the original iPod touch.

    This only affects how long Apple will freely provide technical support, repairs to, or replacement of the device.

    Fixed. /Users/x/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/AirKeysInputManager.bundle got corrupted by a badly installed safari extension. Deleting this, then reinstalling adobe air did the trick. I wasn't thorough enough on my first try, it was tricky to find everything associated. I had to look for files in the console log then search for them. Spotlight was missing some deep files, EasyFind worked better for me.

    Gary,
    Thanks for getting back to me - I gave up on getting this to work yesterday so Im hoping today will be better. I tried your suggestion of holding down the shift key and it didnt work. I have tried alot of stuff that I found posted in the discussions - I tried doing what you suggested Hewtab do - following the article, IPod appears in Window but not in Itunes. I have shut down my virus software - I even restored my computer back to before I installed Itunes and tried to reinstall it but no go - that made it even worse. When I try to uninstall or reinstall Itunes or the Ipod software it wont let me. - It simply says Product_Name ws not found in string table. IS there anything else I can do? Im about to download winamp and be done with itunes.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

  • Please help! all albums on ipod not showing in itunes library

    Hi,
    I 'd be very grateful if someone could help me please. I have an old ipod nano 4 or 5th gen, sorry not sure which. My problem is that only a few of my albums are showing in itunes although they are all on my ipod. I have tried syncing my ipod many times but it hasn't worked. I have also tried i the summary tab, unticking 'manually manage music and videos', but then get a message 'are you sure you want to manually manage music and videos on your ipod? All existing content on your ipod will be replaced with the contents of your itunes library'. Which I don't want, because only a few of my albums are on my itunes library! I want all the music stored on my ipod to go on to itunes, and I don't know why it dissapeared from itunes in the first place...Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mari.

    Hi!
    If iTunes is recognizing that there is music on the device that isn't automatically syncing, do this:
    1: Go into the iPod area of iTunes.
    2: Find the Music tab.
    3: Select the unsynced music.
    4: Drag the music into the Music part of the iTunes library (should be on the left hand side).
    It is probably just not syncing automatically because you haven't told it that you want it to sync. This will fix it.
