You're welcome.
Unless you get better suggestions here, and having ruled out other possibilities and concluded that software is the cause of your problem, my only remaining suggestion is that you try reinstalling and re-updating the software that you believe is damaged or causing the problem.

Nothing. The 2nd Gen Touch is OBSOLETE and is WAY past its support life. If you want to run the newer apps you have to buy a newer iPod.

Recording live music on 2nd Gen ipod nano

Greetings-
I recently purchased a 2nd Gen ipod nano 4 gig. I'd like to be able to record live music, then load it in my computer. I obviously don't expect CD quality, just decent enough playback to be able to replay the music on my computer (using the Amazing Slow Downer, for example) to learn new tunes.
I would typically take it to an Irish music session, record the musicians then go home and try and learn the tunes.
Suggestions for a microphone?
Is this done through the memo function of the ipod?
If y'all have experience doing that kind of thing, I'd appreciate your kind advice.

As Lougoose and others have said, the "Music Videos" folder is simply there by default in the iTunes software, and does not have to do with your nano having the ability to play videos or not.
If you'd like to let Apple know about this, as a possible feature in a future update of iTunes or iPod firmware, write your suggestion on these Feedback forms:

ITunes 8.1 breaks syncing with 2nd gen iPod shuffle

So, I downloaded iTunes 8.1 as soon as it came out as all the new features seemed pretty benign, and I've never had issues with any iTunes update going all the way back to 1.0. However, the 8.1 update rendered my 2nd gen shuffle no better than a $5 MP3 player.
Keeping in mind I use my shuffle primarily for listening to podcasts, here's the issues:
+1) dragging files to the iPod that already exist on the device+
8.0: pops a dialog warning that some of the items are already on the device and gives you the option to skip those ones and copy the rest. I use this all the time as I just do a select all and drag everything in my Podcasts list to the iPod to get new stuff onto it
8.1: it gladly copies the duplicates onto the iPod again
+2) order of podcasts when added to the iPod+
8.0: podcasts get put at the end but when you disconnect, they get moved to the beginning of the play order on the shuffle and are arranged in the same order as the sort set on your Podcasts list (in my case, ascending Date Released). This was great as all the podcasts would end up right at the beginning of the shuffle in the order I wanted
8.1: podcasts get put at the end and stay there, in whatever order they were in from the location I dragged them from (i.e. the literal order they appear in the Podcasts list. So while in 8.0 they'd be arranged in date order regardless of whether different podcast subscriptions were mixed together, in 8.1 they were placed into alphabetical podcast order, subsorted by date)
+3) automatic removal of deleted podcasts+
8.0: a podcast deleted from the Podcasts list that's also on the shuffle will immediately cause a sync event and remove it from the shuffle
8.1: no sync event, deleted podcast stays on the shuffle until manually removed
+4) ability to play songs from the shuffle in iTunes when the shuffle is connected+
8.0: double-clicking a song that's on the shuffle by selecting the device and then its Music tab, plays it (and also causes immediate and constant syncing, which is weird, but also expected)
8.1: double-clicking a song has no effect. Selecting a song and clicking iTunes' play button does nothing
The problems are occurring on my Mac Pro. I initially upgraded to iTunes 8.1 via Software Update, but tried reinstalling via the standalone installer. No luck. I also tried restoring the iPod to factory settings twice with no luck.
I also did some tests on my MacBook Pro which still had iTunes 8.0 on it. The same "correct" behaviour was encountered on the MBP. As soon as I upgraded to 8.1 via the downloaded installer, the same "incorrect/broken" behaviour was encountered as on the Mac Pro. I restored the iPod in iTunes 8.0 and 8.1 and that still didn't fix the behaviour when using it under 8.1. Additionally, on the MacBook Pro I removed the iTunes library and started with a fresh one just in case there was something funky with it.
Anyone else having these problems? I know at least one person whose 2nd gen shuffle works with 8.1 as it always had, so I'm not sure what's up with my shuffle.

I'm having most/all of the problems mentioned here. As far as manually ordering tracks, that doesn't work either. As near as I've been able to determine, tracks are played in the order they were put on the Shuffle, no matter how you order them in the list. The only way I've been able to get them in the order I want them is to put them all into a separate play list, set the desired order, delete everything off of the Shuffle, then copy the whole play list onto the Shuffle. By the way, deleting tracks off of the Shuffle doesn't seem to generate a Sync event by itself. While the list window shows the total size of the items in the list at the bottom (and it decreases when items are deleted), clicking on the Settings tab shows a bar at the bottom showing the same amount of space being used before the deletion. You have to move something else to the Shuffle to make it Sync.
Also, the one problem I've experienced with 8.1 that I haven't seen anyone else mention is connecting the Shuffle and having it show files that hadn't played as having been played and other files that had played not showing as such. For example, say the last thing I did before disconnecting was to put 20 new files on the Shuffle at the top of its list. It will play them last because they were the last items added. But when I reconnect after playing 20 or more tracks, the list shows the top tracks as having been played including those 20 tracks that I hadn't gotten to.

Comp freezing with 2nd gen iPod

So at school I plugged my second gen iPod into one of our G5s and the screen went grey and said please hold down the power button in about 5 different languages so I did. The second time it did the same thing. I come home and I plug the iPod into my G4 iMac and the same thing happens. I try it again and the computer just freezes, not my iPod, just the computer. No data or anything has been erased. I have used my ipod on this version of iTunes before also and it worked fine.

Hm..
Try another port on the computer. If possible, borrow a different iPod cable and see if using that to connect makes any difference.
If the computer freezes, does it unfreeze on its own or do you have to restart it?

How can I transfer all my music from 2nd gen iPod Touch to iPhone 5?

When I connect my iPhone 5 to my MacBook Pro (Model MacBookPro2,2) running OS X 10.7.5 and iTunes 10.7 and try to sync, only my recently purchased music is copied to the iPhone. Is there a way to directly transfer ALL my music, currently contained on my 2nd ge neration iPod Touch (running iOS 4.2.1) or my first generation iPad to the iPhone 5?

It needs to be stored on your Mac and in iTunes firs before it can be synced over to your iPhone 5.
If all the content you want to sync to the iPhone 5 are purchases from the iTunes Store, you can redownload them all via iCloud directly from the iPhone assuming you live in a country where iCloud has gone live.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If it's non iTunes store purchased content that is no longer stored in iTunes on your Mac, you'll need to the help of third party software to help you get the job done. See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Some songs can't be loaded on 2nd gen ipod shuffle (question with answer)

I'm getting the following message when trying to load some songs on to my 2nd gen iPod shuffle:
"Some of the items in the iTunes library, including 'Allegro', were not copied to the iPod "iPod" because they cannot be played on this iPod." When I click on the details triangle I get "Allegro" was not copied because the audio format is not supported by the iPod "iPod".
This is happening for many songs that were previously loaded on this iPod. The songs were all loaded into iTunes from CDs. I have tried the iPod reset utility, deleting all songs and reloading, selecting a single song to sync, no luck.
When I do a "Get Info" on these songs they say they were encoded with either iTunes 6.0.5 or iTunes 7.0.2.
OK. Even before I was able to post the question, I found the answer. If I select the songs and from the "Advanced" menu select "Create AAC version", the AAC version can be copied to the iPod. Get Info shows the encoding has changed so AAC and iTunes 9.0.1.
Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.

You can't "sync" that is automatically update an iPod from multiple libraries or computers. If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply.

2nd gen ipod shuffle will charge with one computer (vista) but not the other computer (windows 8). Please help!

My 2nd gen ipod shuffle will charge on my old vitsta computer but not my new windows 8 computer. Does anyone know why that might be? The new computer recognizes the ipod and I can see everything on it, change settings, etc. it just won't charge. Is there a reason as to why this should be happening?

Just bought a refurbished 2nd generation ipod
shuffle. I am running the very latest version of OS X
and iTunes on an iBook G3 600 mhz with the slower USB
ports, not 2.0 ports. The ipod mounts and is
regognized by itunes, but I cannot seem to register
the ipod from itunes, it always has an error message
when I submit to register (all forms are filled out
correctly). The registration window in iTunes shows
that this ipod is formatted for Windows (from the
previous owner I assume) and may be causing my
problems?
No. ALL shuffles are FAT32 format.
The other problem is that it will not sync and
transfer any music from itunes library. I am trying
to transfer simple mp3 files that should be compliant
with the ipod specs. No luck even after multiple
restarts on the ipod. Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you.

2nd Gen IPod Touch - Software crash using Krusell Music Multi Adapt Case

When using my new 2nd gen iPod Touch with my old Krusell Music Case. When I close the case the software of my iPod crashes and the only way I can restart is to do a hard reset. It was Ok with my 1st gen iPod Touch.
Is it possible that the magnets that are used for keeping the lid closed are effecting the electronics somehow? Do I have a problem with the iPod?
Comments would be gratly appreciated.

I doubt if it is the magnets but it is more likely that case is pushing on the Sleep/Wake button. I don't believe the gen 1 and gen 2 iPods are the same size.
You can test the magnet theory by turning your iPod on and moving the magnets over the device.

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes. it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted. Any suggestions?

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Then try restoring again.

Music is not supported on this 2nd gen iPod

Why is it that half my daughter's music is not supported on this 2nd gen iPod shuffle? These songs worked fine for years and now are gone. They work on iPad, iPhone (2nd and 3rd gen), and iPod classic 2nd gen. I tried reformating to ACC version- no Help.

The Mac mini has, I believe, a special build of 10.8.2 later than the version you can install on any other system, so you will not be able to boot the 2012 mini from a boot drive from any earlier model of Mac. There probably won't be a "universal" version until OS X 10.8.3 is released, whenever that might occur. If you want to use the SSD as a boot drive, you'll have to install the 2012 mini's version of 10.8.2 on the SSD, either by booting to the 10.8 Recovery Partition and installing 10.8 or by cloning the 2012 mini's internal drive to the SSD.

HT204266 is there a way to get older versions of apps? I have a 2nd gen ipod touch with ios 4.2.1

is there a way to get older versions of apps - for a 2nd gen ipod touch with ios 4.2.1

The only way is to jailbreak and download cracked apps, but I would recommend you wouldn't do that as this is piracy and jailbreaking is illegal in some countries.

Airplay Issue on 2nd Gen Ipod with Apple TV

I recently did the upgrade for the new Apple TV. Since that upgrade, my 2nd generation iPod running iOS 4.2 will not stream video to the apple tv. The video won't even start up. However, I can stream audio fine. This all worked fine prior to the Apple TV upgrade. Any one else see this issue?

You guys are right, I meant Apple TV 4.2....
I was able to stream video on my 2nd Gen Ipod Touch(1.4.2) prior to the Apple TV 4.2 upgrade. I was able to stream youtube and my videos that I had stored on my ipod. These were not 3rd party video's. They were all videos that I converted to mov and transfered to itunes and then to my iPod. This WORKED perfectly fine prior to the Apple TV upgrade. It is as though this new AppleTV 4.2 upgrade made me lose this functionality to stream video. Mr. Prime Minister, this did work!
I am just wondering if anyone else has seen this issue. I can stream video from my iMac through itunes to my apple tv without a problem. It is just the iPod that seems to be not working.

HT1719 I have a 2nd gen. iPod shuffle that I got from my grandson,and want to load music, or delete songs. I don't have the software for it. Can I still get that?

I have a 2nd gen. ipod shuffle that I want to load music onto, but only have the shuffle. can i get software for it?

Hi, my son has a second generation shuffle (the first type of aluminium clip-on one) and the current version of iTunes "talks" to it just fine. iTunes is a free download from Apple. That's all the software you need.
