Problems registering new iPod Nano :(

Hey guys.
I bought a new 8GB Nano today to replace the one that was stolen from me.
Anyway, when I try to register it via iTunes v 7.6.1.9, it allows me to select UK as my Country, but when I go to the next page, it says USA & won't accept my UK Postal Code as it expects a 5 digit ZIP I tried going back & changing my Country again, but the same thing happens when I click "Next". It just keeps defaulting to USA.
I'm using Vista SP1 & registering the new Nano on my existing (& only) iTunes account.
I hope that makes sense & you can help
Many thanks, Richard.

Haha, I love you
Thanks so much

  • Problems syncing new ipod nano

    I was given a 7th generation ipod nano for Christmas. I installed itunes and it downloaded some of my music to the ipod including two books I had bought from Audible. It then refused to sync anything else, not even the music I've bought from itunes store. I've removed the audible files from the ipod and from the itunes library but I still can't add anything to the ipod. When itunes opens up it says sync is complete, but there are still only two albums on the ipod. I've tried restoirng the settings on  the ipod and when I tried to uninstall itunes my computer crashed, but itunes are still there with the same problems. I've now lost hours trying to resolve this

    Hello JoJo717,
    Congratulations on your new iPod nano!  It sounds like you have one computer but multiple iPods.  There are a three options when syncing multiple devices to one computer, and the article below outlines these methods.  I recommend reviewing the article to find a method that would work for you:

  • Problem recognizing new Ipod nano

    When I connect my new ipod nano to my mac and open itunes, the nano device is not recognized.  How do it get it to connect?

    To clarify Nathan's post:
    The way the iPod works under Windows requires a certain file (iPodService.exe) to be running.
    However, this service can only run on one account at a time. So Windows opens it in the first account opened. If you switch users, the service is still running (only) in the first account running.
    A simple restart, followed by logging in to your account, will fix this, because your account will be given access to the service.
    In the future, your options are to use the Log Out feature instead of Fast User Switching, or to disable the service from running under any accounts other than your own. The former is simple, the latter, not so much, but I'll include instructions so that you can do it if you're comfortable with the somewhat advanced options you'll need to access.
    About Fast User Switching in iTunes for Windows
    How to force iPodService to start in only one account
    Use to avoid the logoff problem
    Open the account you want it permanently off of, go to the desktop, right click on My Computer, and hit Manage.
    Hit Services & Applications>Services>iPodsrv (or iPodservice, it's an older version).
    Double click, set the 'startup type' to Disabled, and it won't open in that account.
    Rinse, repeat for any other accounts as needed.

  • BMW car adapter problems with new iPOD nano

    Hi,
    I recently swapped my iPOD nano to the new model. I used the old one as "CD-changer" in my BMW 3-series with the original Apple BMW iPod Adapter.
    Worked really great.
    With the new iPOD nano the interface does not work any more properly:
    - the iPOD is not turned off when the car radio is swtiched off.
    - the iPOD is not charged any more through the interface
    - once connected through the interface, the display is turned on (full white) and remains on! You could use it as a flashlight. The batteries are empty through this after max. 3 hours.
    Means: If you forget to switch off the iPOD manually after the journey, it will be dead when you come back.
    I updated already to latest firmware 1.0.2, no diference.
    Apple has no contact to call.
    BMW does not know anything and cannot help.
    Anyone an idea whom to contact or how to overcome?
    Thank you,
    JJer

    Mine finally got fixed at the MINI dealership! At first they kept telling me to update my ipod firmware but 2 firmware updates later (I'm up to 1.1 now) it still did not work). I finally convinced them to take a look at it. They were able to reproduce the same thing I saw, where my ipod worked on their cars, and their ipods worked on my car. That seemed to show that the connector and cables were ok, but they ordered a whole extra kit anyway just to try it out. After they got the new kit, they found out that though the cables were ok, they had to replace the ipod "interface/module (hw v3.0/sw v3.0)" to get it to work. Now my ipod finally works in my car and I get the MINI logo and everything!
    You guys may want to check with your respective dealerships or whoever installed the adapter to see if you may have the same issue.

  • Unable to register new iPod Nano

    When connecting my newly purchased 8GB iPod Nano to iTunes (latest version), iTunes indicated it was unable to register my device.  Is this a known problem?
    Thank you,
    The Oldskaterman...

    I don't know if it's a known problem, but there were 2 others yesterday who ran into the same issue.  One ended up just registering the product using this link rather than doing it via iTunes.

    The other had to restore the iPod and re-install iTunes if I recall correctly.

  • Many problems with new iPod nano

    I had an iPod Mini for a year, and never had any problems with it. Last month, I bought a Nano (4 GB), and I've already had several problems. Has anyone else experienced these issues?
    1. When I jog with it (which is very often), it often skips.
    2. Several times the purchased music has stopped playing altogether. When I try to play purchased songs, they just skip directly to the next song. The problem is temporarily solved when I restore my Nano, but it then resurfaces within 2 or 3 days- and I have to restore it again. Bottom line, it's a recurrent issue.
    3. In the last 3 days, I can't turn off my Nano (it has nothing to do with the "hold" switch being out of place). It operates otherwise normally, but nothing happens when I hold down the "play/pause" button. I tried resetting it and restoring it, but the problem isn't solved.
    I can't seem to find any good references in the Troubleshooting tips Apple has posted.
    Thanks for any help that you may be able to give me on solving any of these 3 issues.

    Numbers 1 and 2 may be related. The iPod nano will not skip just because you are jogging (it does not have a harddrive).
    Is the software on your computer and iPod up to date?

  • Problems With My New Ipod Nano 8Gb

    Like most got a new ipod Nano 8Gb for Christmas and I had previously installed Itunes and Quicktime to the latest versions. I hooked up the ipod and it was recognized and it said it wanted to update to version 103 which i allowed it to do.
    A bar came up and started going across and I let it go and after 5 minutes it was still going and then after 15 minutes it was still going but I could tell that nothing was happening. (apple if you read these forums how about changing your updates so a percentage is given). I disconnected the player and had to end the task on Itunes to get it to close and then I hooked up the ipod and this time it went into itunes and synced and seemed to copy the 6 albums I had in there.
    I then decided to put a couple more albums on, but when I told it to sync this time the software couldn't find the device and I was given an error. The long and short of this is the device will sync initially and download *Music only* as any of the other checkmarked items will not download, but after the initial syncing anything else added to itunes will not sync or update again.
    I've also noted that anytime you change a setting in the itunes by putting a check mark in the box eg. such as podcasts, movies, outlook and so on the next time the ipod is plugged in none of these items are checked.
    I've come to the conclusion that Apple didn't do much testing on this device and so far i'm not very impressed and will most likely take the product back for a refund. How can Apple expect people to do all these things I've been reading about to try and fix the many problems that seem to plague this new Nano 3rd Gen unit?
    Does anyone from apple read these forums and know what's going on?

    Well i've tried a few things that haven't done anything.
    - 1 reinstalled Itunes but this did nothing to help
    - I tried to restore the unit but got the dreaded 1418 error
    I do have a question though when I plug my ipod in i hear it connect and it shows a USB mass storage device down in the taskbar which i can click on and see that it is the ipod usb device but if I look under My Computer there is nothing in there. So my question is should there be a device in my computer and should I see the device down in the taskbar?

  • 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?

  • New laptop = problems with itunes/ipod nano 3g

    I bought a new computer and am having some issues with my ipod/itunes. In itunes, all songs that weren't downloaded from the itunes store have an exclamation point next to them and I get a message saying the song could not be used because the original file could not be found. I did copy my personal music from my old computer via flash drive and the itunes preferences are set properly to search in the location in which they are saved. How can I get itunes to locate the file itself without doing it manually? Also, I cannot get my iPod to sync with my new computer iTunes - I did authorize my new computer. It shows my ipod on itunes, but will not sync my new music and playlists. How can I fix that as well?

    Personally I am very happy with my new iPod Nano. It works great with Nike Plus and I love the video and some of the cool features like stopwatch and more. I have an earlier iPod Nano and I was hesitant to buy the new one but I am so glad I did. I don't have any problems uploading data.

  • New iPod nano chromatic crashes computer

    I have an iMac version 10.4.11. My daughter just bought a new iPod nano chromatic and whenever we try to use it on that computer, it crashes and a window pops up demanding a mandatory restart. There was no way to even register the iPod and it never showed up in the iTunes library. My son has a first generation nano and my wife has the next generation of nano that came with the computer when we bought it, and both work fine. We returned the iPod nano chromatic and bought a new one, thinking it was a faulty iPod, but the second iPod caused the same problem. We tried the new one on my MacBook Pro 10.5.something new-generation laptop and it showed up and we registered it. When we tried the iPod again on the home computer and it still crashes it. We cannot use the iPod on my laptop because it belongs to my employer and if they need it back sometime, then the iPod ill be useless. So does anyone have a good answer besides "buy a new iMac?"

    We did solve this problem by connecting the ipod charger directly into the computer instead of through the usb hub (which is a usb 2.0 so I don't know why that would be a problem and none of our other ipods have a problem connecting through the hub). A real hassle as the computer has only three usb slots (are you listening Apple?!). We had used the hub to hook up everything (camera, ipods, SD card reader) -- but kept the keyboard and mouse and the hub directly connected to the computer. Now we have the mouse on the hub instead to make room for the ipod on the computer usb. So far, so good, but it would make things much easier if the iMac would have more built in usb slots on the back.

  • 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.

  • I have a MacBook using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.0.1.  When I tether my new iPod Nano, the icon shows on my desktop, but the device does not show up on iTunes.

    I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.0.1.  When I tether my new iPod Nano, the icon shows up on my desktop, but does not show up under devices in iTunes.  The Nano says it is connected and synching, but I cannot download music if it doesn't show up under devices.

    Hi,
    Have you managed to solve this problem? if yes, please highlight how you solved it...i'm facing same problem with my new Iphone 5S but udner Windows, thanks.

  • New IPOD Nano will not sync.  iTunes recognizes it, I think.  It knows its there and says I can transfer purchases from it but it will not let me sync it to my existing itunes.

    I received a new IPOD nano for CHristmas.  Itunes shows it there on summary, it is showing with the eject symbol.
    However, when I go to file/sync, it allows me to transfer purchases but not sync it.  It also does not show up in my playlist like my older NANO does.
    I have reset, I have toggled security on and off.  I am current on the software on both my IPOD and ITunes.

    I was having the same problem...plugged in my new device and although I was able to set it up and it was recognized in iTunes, hit the sync button and nothing...even when it said it was syncing, still nothing. I am not sure this will work for you but I did two things that were suggested in this forum in combination with one another.
    First, I plugged my Nano into different USB port on my laptop from the one I was using. when I reconnected, my devie again was displayed in the top right corner. I clicked on it and the summary page appeared. The one thing I hadn't done is go to the "music" tab. When I arrived there I found that the "sync music" tab was unchecked for some reason. I checked the block and instantly the download started.
    As I said, I don't know if you have tried this or if it will even work for you but after an hour of frustration...I felt a little silly that it was something so simple I had negelected and thought I would share.
    Good  luck!

  • Solved: New iPod nano 8g not seen in My Computer/iTunes after Apple Support

    I received this iPod as a Christmas gift and it has taken months to get it working but I am happy to say I finally did. I wanted to post what I did to solve the problem in case anyone else is having the same issue.
    Background Information:
    - Windows XP operating system (I had to upgrade to SP 2 just for this iPod)
    - Computer works fine with an older iPod nano
    - New iPod nano would simply bring up the "Install Hardware Wizard" and always resulted in "Cannot Install Hardware"
    - Nothing would show up in My Computer
    - iPod would say "Connected, Eject before disconnecting" when it was connected
    - Under "Services" iPod service was running & Started
    - Under "Device Manager" iPod showed up under "Other Devices" with an exclamation/question mark for "iPod" (note: this did not show up under USB controllers)
    What I Have Tried That Didn't Work:
    - Downloading new iTunes. I did this a few times and ended up with 7.6.1.9
    - Uninstall and reinstall iTunes and Quicktime
    - Tried Install Hardware Wizard option to search for drivers in c:\WINNT\inf (or c:\windows\inf if that's what you have)
    - Restarted computer several times and tried creating a new user in Windows XP
    - Tried going to "Right-click-My Computer"-"Manage"-"Device Manager" and uninstalled any instance of iPod (under "Other Devices") and tried refreshing / re-installing
    - Tried stopping and restarting the iPod service in "Services"
    - Tried restarting iPod, resetting it, all those 5 R's and other Apple support docs online
    - Tried finding answers in forums
    - Finally today I spent a few hours on the phone with Apple Support, and after repeating everything in their self-help documents online, and it still didn't work, they said "Call Microsoft and tell them you have a driver issue" and that my new iPod needed some additional driver (which is why old iPod works but not new)
    So that's where I left off this afternoon. I think I've seen people who haven't had much luck getting Microsoft support to help with iPod issues, so I continued searching online. I tried updating my Video driver from the Gateway.com website and that didn't work.
    On the microsoft.com website, the best I could find was a registry change which told me to delete registry keys for UpperFilters and LowerFilters, which I didn't even have so I couldn't try.
    Finally, here is the solution to what worked:
    I searched for iPod - specific drivers, and on some random help forum - http://www.computing.net/hardware/wwwboard/forum/43267.html
    You'll see they mention "usbstor.inf" which needs to be in c:\winnt\inf (or c:\windows\inf). I checked my computer and it was missing. Luckily, it was there on my work laptop which was also recently upgraded to Windows XP so I e-mailed it to myself (glad I didn't have to trust some one online).
    I also followed his directions to add "usbstor.sys" from c:\winnt\servicepack files\i386\ to c:\winnt\system32\drivers.
    Lastly, I saw some other usb*.inf and usb*.pnf files on my laptop so I decided what-the-heck, I'll grab them all since I only had usbvideo.inf, and thus I extracted the following into my c:\winnt\inf directory: usb.inf, usb.pnf, usbport.inf, usbport.pnf, usbprint.pnf, usbprint.inf, usbstor.pnf, usbtor.inf.
    I restarted my computer and right away my iPod magically appeared in MyComputer and when I opened iTunes, it was also successfully there. Funny thing is, Windows Install Hardware Wizard popped up and I pointed it to that directory -- guess what, it didn't work. Apparently that doesn't matter. Every time I plug in my iPod now, I will just skip the "Install New Hardware Wizard" and go straight to iTunes.
    I know this was lengthy but I thought I could save some one else hours of checking around--- just go look in your "inf" directory and make sure you have the usbstor.inf file!
    Good luck!!!!
