Registering iPod nano again ang again?

Hi there
Was just woundering, why iTunes wants me to register my iPod nano everytime i connect it to my iMac? Shouldn't once be enough?

I have never seen any of the buttons you mention in the registration menue .
When plugging in the nano you have 3 choices:
- don't register
- continue
- the other one i have forgotten... cancle or something.
By clicking continue you get into a page where to enter your acc, pw, and country. you can then either cancel or continue.
Next page you can enter further details like name, last name, phone number etc...
Best option here is the range of age where the iPod user is part of:
At least in German versio there is a typing mistake - the range between 10-33 that is choosable should probably be 10-13 but who cares.
You can then either choose cancel or continue again. By pressing continue you land in the iPod menue, where you can select which things to synchonice.. etc.
But there is never one of the buttons you mentioned.

Restoring ipod nano again and again

Hi
My ipod nano is saying "use itunes to restore" when i am doing that, itunes keps telling me to do it again. I just cant restore my ipod.
Need Help

Try putting your iPod into disk mode:

And then try the restore again.

If it still doesn't work, you can try formatting the iPod:
Click on Start, right-click on My Computer and click Manage
Click on Disk Management (in the left-hand column)
Wait for Windows to connect to the Logical Disk Manager Service
When it does, you should see a drive listed that represents the iPod. (You can verify this by checking the capacity, which should be listed as slightly less than what is printed on the iPod. Or, you can open My Computer with the iPod disconnected, and then plug in the iPod to see which drive letter appears).
Right-click on the iPod’s drive and click on “format”
Set the parameters as follows:
Volume label = iPod
File System = FAT32
Allocation unit size = default
Uncheck the options for Quick Format and File Compression
Click OK to start the format.
When it’s done, try the restore in iTunes again.
If all else fails, the iPod may need to go in for service.

Registering iPod nano - Session timed-out even though already registered

Having purchased a new iPod nano, when connecting it to iTunes I received the screen to register the nano with the options to Never Register, Later or Continue. I chose Continue but received the message 'Your registration session timed-out'. I registered through apple.com but now every time I connect the iPod I get this same screen and always the same 'Your registration session timed-out' message. Can anyone help me get past this screen ?

Actually, I've got this working. I had already tried resetting my Nano (take a look at the ipod support page at http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/ and lookup how to reset your ipod ) before and nothing doing.
However, the other day, I resetted it again and now my Nano is working fine! I got the 'registration' page and I selected 'Never Register' (although I have already done so via the web site) and can now update my Nano properly. I wonder if I didn't reset it properly last time - I can't think why else it didn't work last time. Ah well, try resetting and see what happens.

PC used to register iPod nano no longer available

I know this was a mistake. I registered my ipod nano on a computer I no longer have access to. I have a new computer at home, HP Compaq. My new computer is not recognizing my ipod and I'm not able to transfer songs purchased to my library. Is it possible to register my ipod on this computer and if not, if I reset all settings which I believe will delete my songs, will I then be able to register it? Thank you.

There is no actual registration between a computer and iPod. The iPod may be synced to a particular iTunes library, so you may need to get your songs off the iPod, set up your iTunes library on the new computer the way you want it, and then sync your iPod to the new library.
There is authorization between a computer and your iTunes Store account. So you will need to run iTunes on the new computer and use the +Authorize Computer+ command under the Store menu to authorize the new computer with your iTunes Store account. Your old computer will still be registered, but you can have up to five computers registered to one iTunes Store account.
Now, if you only need to transfer the items purchased from the iTunes Store from the iPod to the new computer, you can do the following. First, go to iTunes preferences Devices tab. Check the box that says +Disable automatic syncing for iPhones and iPods+. This is just a precaution, because iTunes should ask before syncing your iPod for the first time with a new library.
Connect the iPod and run iTunes. If iTunes asks if you want to sync the iPod, decline to do so. iTunes should open and the iPod should appear in the iTunes sidebar. Select the iPod in the sidebar. Go up to the menu bar and select +File -> Transfer Purchased from <name of iPod>+. That would put all the iTunes Store purchased items on your iPod into your iTunes library.
Note: This only works for iTunes Store purchases. If you want other files off the iPod, you will need to use a third-party utility. iTunes will not do it.

Registering iPod Nano 4th with AppleId - registered to another Apple ID.

Hello, today i was trying to register my iPod Nano to the new Apple Id service. I'm the owner of the iPhone, MBPro and iPod Nano 4th. I registered iPhone and MBP but for the iPod Nano i'm getting the error:
According to our records, this serial number is registered to another Apple ID. If you have more than one Apple ID, log in to My Support Profile with that Apple ID to see your other registered products. Not sure if you have another Apple ID? Find out.
The fact is that i have only one appleid and it's the one i'm using on itunes store and i'm sure i registered it with iPod Nano 2 yrs ago, when i bought it. But how do i un-register it with the other apple id if i don't remember it at all?

Are you the original owner of the devices which say they're registered to another Apple ID? You will need to call Apple or go to the store to have this straightened out.

Need help registering iPod Nano (3rd Gen) into iTunes

Got the 3rd Gen iPod nano for Christmas, but I'm having difficulty setting it up.
The manual says I need to wait for something known as a "Setup Assist" to come up. Nothing ever did.
Also, in iTunes, it tells me (when I click on the iPod icon under "devices") that I still need to register the product. It takes me to the terms and conditions sheet, and as is typical, tells me to "agree to terms" and then... I click "save." it asks me to save an rtf file onto my computer. I do so, but nothing ever happens. And my iPod still won't work.
Am I saving it somewhere wrong? (I've saved it in My Documents, as well as the iPod and iTunes folders in My Programs)
Any help is appreciated, and Merry Christmas

Okay! I found out what to do.
What you're going to have to do is go into the Control Panel on your computer.
Go into "Appearance and themes." You're going to have to change the screen resolution. 1280x600 or so should do the trick.
Go back into iTunes and you should see the "continue" button on the far right. (Very scrunched up and annoying, I know. But it works!)
I hope that helps you out.

MacBook Suddenly Doesn't Register iPod Nano

I have a MacBook and an iPod nano, which I've had for 7 months. I plug my ipod in through my MacBook's USB port to update it usually, and it always works. A few days ago, it started acting strange. I plug it in, and it turns on and begins charging, but it makes no noise signaling that its been recognized, it doesn't appear on the desktop, and it doesn't come up on iTunes so it doesn't update. Does anyone have any idea why this might be? Thank you!

We're having this problem too with my son's Nano (and probably with my daughter's if she could remember where she left it). Trouble is, being children they have lost the receipts (if they ever had them as they were gifts at Christmas), so although they got them 7 months ago we have no proof of that.
How likely are they to exchange them for us?

Ipod nano AGAIN

i posted a topic earlier saying that my nano was displaying the folder and exclamation mark, after updating and restoring it again it later changed to the battery and exclamation mark icon and now it will not turn on, will not reset, and when plugged in it does not say it is charging. nothing is happening. is it broken?

It might need to be sent for repairs.
See if any of these links help you:

I hope this helps!

I had an iPod nano and then got a classic iPod, which then broke. So I wanted to start using my iPod nano again. I still have the same iTunes account, but when I try to sync this iPod with my iTunes nothing happens.

The music that was on this nano when I stopped using it a few years ago is still on it, and I want to replace it with other songs that I've added to my iTunes since then.

iPods (except for iPod touch) are not linked to any iTunes "account." They are associated with your iTunes library. The account in iTunes is your Apple ID, and that is used to buy and download content from the iTunes Store. It is not required to use an iPod.
The 1st (and 2nd) gen shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library at a time. When you connect it, iTunes should prompt you to start using it with your iTunes library, and warn that the shuffle's existing content will be erased. Have iTunes erase the shuffle, and it will be associated with your iTunes library going forward. You can then add content to your shuffle.
The need for the previous owner's Apple ID and password should only come up if you are trying to transfer existing content from the shuffle to your iTunes library, AND the previous owner had content purchased from the iTunes Store. Just cancel out of that step, if iTunes asks.

Grrr....1 Gb iPod nano again

Okay. So I uninstalled my iPod and then reinstalled it. On my toolbar, a message popped up and said that the hardware wouldn't work properly. So now, I have a dead nano and notihng is working.
I desperatly need help.
I'm getting angry.

Hello,
Have you tried this?:
Eject your iPod, Reset it, put it into disk mode, (try this several times until it works), then connect it to your computer. See if this works or helps you.

You need to completely uninstall iTunes from your computer and then download and install it again.
You do know that Microsoft has a web site, right?
