Suggested improvements for iPod Nano G5

I love using my iPod at work quite a bit. I keep it in my pocket for convenience. But with it there, I cannot see the display. Today I checked the battery and it was almost dead. I thought it would be a good idea if the Nano could produce a series of three short beeps through the headphones when the battery gets low, say last 20% of charge. Then when it gets to the "last pixel" of the red low-battery indicator, as mine was today, the beeps could repeat once per minute or so.
Also it would be helpful while driving with the Nano in a car adapter/ player if the "Now Playing" song/ artist/ album font could be made larger for easier viewing. It is very hard to read while the car is moving. I see the menu font can be made larger but not the main "Playing" screen. Did I miss something in the manual?
Can the Album artwork be turned off? A lot of times it is the wrong artwork or just a musical note anyway. This would allow for the Now Playing font to be bigger

Thanks! I did not know there was a place at the Apple site to give feedback. I searched the entire site for it before deciding to post my comments here at the discussions forum. I will put my comments there.

    I want the firware updated to support entering any city as the default time zone. Also, update to allow alarms on the clocks to be relative to the selected city. Any other suggested improvements for the firmware?

    I get a message "The Itunes server could not be contacted, check your internet connection" when trying to check for Ipod Nano software updates. I have a 1st generation Nano and haven't updated the software for a while. My internet connection is working. Was thre a change in the internet address for NANO software updates? Do I have to reconfigure something in Itunes to point to the correct address?

    What version of iTunes are you using?  The latest is 10.6.3. In iTunes, choose Help -> About iTunes to check the version number. If it's lower than 10.6.3, download the latest version from here.

  • ITunes for iPod Nano 5th generation

    Hi
    I have a iPod Nano 5th generation with the click wheel and no touch. When I search iTunes fro Apps & Games, I find only for iPad, iPod Touch or iPhone. How do I search only for iPod Nano 5th generation click wheel games

    Mouse over App Store. You'll see a arrow pointing down. Click it and on bottom of list is iPod click wheel games. Click it and your there...
    Too Bad we still have to pay so much for these old games. I think Apple should just release them as freeware...

    Sorry, but Apps are not compatible with the iPod and there is no additional software available for it.

  • What is the screen lock default code for iPod nano 5th gen?

    What is the screen lock default code for iPod nano 5th gen?

    There isn't one.  You'll need to connect the Nano to your iTunes library and restore to factory settings.  There is no other way.

  • Reinstall software for iPod Nano

    I have recently bought a new PC and would like to install the latest version of softwares including iTune and iPod in my PC.
    However, I can only found iTune on Apple wesbite but not for iPod Nano. Does anybody know where are they?

    with the new iTunes 7.0.x versions, there is no longer a separate "standalone" iPod Updater application. updates and restores are carried out using iTunes 7.0.x itself.
    have you been having any trouble with the iTunes 7.0.x installs?

  • How do I find games for ipod nano 3rd generation

    I cannot find games for iPod nano in iTunes even though all the support keeps telling me to select iPod nano from the Source list. There is no source list, no games tab, nothing that leads me to the iPod nano games. When I click on apps, and just go to a game, they are all just for iphones, ipads or ipod touches. This is frustrating. Any help would be appreciated!

    I believe that a few really low quality iPod games were distributed as freeware a long time ago, however you're much more likely to find malware infested web sites than any genuine source if you go hunting for them, and you'll still be disapointed with what you find. If you want games get an iPod touch.

  • When the new Nike Sport Armband for iPod nano (5th generation) ?

    When the new Nike Sport Armband for iPod nano (5th generation) ?
    Is the Nike Sport Armband for iPod nano (4th generation)same to use??
    Is Nike Sport Armband or Incase Sports Armband good to use?
    Message was edited by: terry9891

    Not sure about the Nike, but do NOT buy the InCase armband. This product is HORRIBLE for at least 3 reasons. I am tall and of normal build. Tried to wear it while working out (have worn other iPods and MP3 players in armbands/cases while working out with no problems at all).
    1) The strap is barely long enough to fit over my biceps (which is normal sized). The strap is not flexible, so it's loose when your arm is extended, tight when your arm is flexed. When doing a normal arm exercise (not even a biceps exercise), with a normal amount of weight, the very first time I tried to wear this, it popped right off my arm (literally).
    2) This generation Nano is longer than previous ones. The case is even longer (longer than necessary). It barely even fit on my arm, length-wise, between my elbow and my shoulder (and my arms are somewhat longer than average). Also, it was so long that I had to try to wear it in only one position, otherwise I couldn't really even bend my arm (during the 1 minute it stayed on my arm to begin with).
    3) The case has a thin opening at one end but none at the other, and is difficult to get in and out. Thus you can either have access to the earphone plug or the "lock" button, but not both. I actually "solved" this by creating a small hole in the bottom that allowed me to stick the earphone plug through it, allowing me access (sort of) to both ends. (Unfortunately, did this before testing the product out and can't return it now, if I could have to begin with.)
    Do NOT buy this product. I wish I hadn't.
