The center button on my 7th generation ipod nano no longer works

I have had my 7th generation ipod nano for about 6 months. It only stays plugged into my vehicle. 3 days ago, the center button quit working. It still plays music and the touch screen works, as well at the top on/off button. What can I do to fix this?

if it is warranty i would visit a apple retail store, be sure to set an appointment if you vist the store.

  • The center button on my 5th generation ipod is stuck in the down position - How can I fix this?

    The center button on my 5th generation ipod is stuck in the down position - How can I fix this?

    I'm not sure if there really is a way to "fix" it without diassembling the iPod in some manner.  Perhaps you find or use some sort of tool that can attach itself to the center botton and allow you to pull up to try and pop it out.  Kind of like the way a plunger works, but I don't know if you'll be able to find anything that small. :S
    Perhaps it would be worth it to send the iPod to a third party service company who would be able to fix it at a pretty reasonable cost. A simple Google search for "iPod repair" should give you a number of results to work with.

  • HT4059 I have a 7th Generation iPod Nano and cannot get audiobooks to sync with it. The manual says this is a valid feature but I can't get it to work. Any suggestions?

    I am trying to sync an audiobook from iTunes to a 7th Generation iPod Nano. The manual says audiobooks can be synced to this device by going to iTunes, selecting the Book button and selecting sync audiobooks but when I select the Book button I do not see any syncing options to select.  What am I doing wrong?

Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue.

  • Why does the 7th generation ipod nano not have games

    I want to know why the 7th generation ipod nano does not come with:
    1- games
    2- voice memo

    1. The iPod Nano runs the Pixi operating system, not iOS and has too small a screen for displaying the game and controlling it.
    2. Plug in a headset with a microphone: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipod_nano_user_guide.pdf page 46.
    3. Ignore the answer from AppleRulesTheWorld

  • The home button on my 4th generation iPod touch is stuck.

    The home button on my 4th generation iPod touch is stuck. How can I fix it at home and get it unstuck? Or were can I take it to get it fixed where it is free or where I do not have to pay a lot of money. With my stuck home button I have to wait for an app to close out for me to open a new one or I have to turn off my iPod completley ad turn it back on to go to a new app.

  • Does anyone know why my music won't play on my 7th generation iPod nano? I tried resetting it already and that didn't work. Can someone please help?

    Does anyone know why my music wont play on my 7th generation iPod nano? I've tried resetting it already but that didnt work. Can someone please help.

    I would to a Restore.  Select the iPod in iTunes.  Go to the Summary tab for the iPod.  There is a button there to do a Restore.  This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.  After Restore complete, try playing songs on the iPod again.
    If THAT does not fix the problem, and it's not bad headphones (since you also tried the "speaker"), there is probably a hardware problem on the iPod.  All 7th gen nanos are still under warranty.  If you have an Apple Store nearby, you should take it to the store's Genius Bar.  To minimize waiting, you can make a reservation on store's web page.

  • HT1320 My 7th generation Ipod nano 16 gig just went dead yesterday. I thought maybe it ran out of juice and needed recharging. Its not taking a charge, or even lighting up to show connection to my computer to recieve a charge. What can I do? Its pretty ne

    My 16 gig, 7th generation ipod nano just died yesterday.
    I assumed it just needed recharging.
    It is not responding. I have complete black screen even when its hooked up to charge....and it wont turn on.
    Help!!!!
    I got it as a birthday gift around the end of May, its brand new.

    Clean out the Lighting connector on the bottom of the nano, clean Lightning connector cable, make sure your computer is not set to go to sleep and connect it to the computer and let it charge for 30 minutes. After this time, while it is still connected, hold down the home and sleep buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.

  • 7th Generation iPod Nano connection issue

    My Dell Inspiron N7110 does not recognize my brand new 7th generation iPod Nano even when I use a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port.

    Gee...I'm answering my own posts.  But...this is the deal.  Apparently, my iPOD Nano froze...and one thing I did not do was reset it.  I did that, and by IPOD was suddenly recognized by my computer....and is now happily charging, etc.   So, case solved.

  • 7th generation ipod nano stops tracking my runs after a minute

    7th Generation Ipod Nano: when using the fitness icon and running, it pauses every minute or so and i have to physically hit resume to start again and the mileage is off. Anyone know how to fix? I can't get it to calibrate because it won't make it through a whole work out to do that.

    Is an earphone or Bluetooth headphone connected to the nano?
    If its an earphone you can check the earpod jack on the iPod to see if there is any lint in it.
    If there is no earphone or Bluetooth headphones connected, the iPod thinks play was hit by accident and pauses it to conserve battery.

  • 7th generation iPod nano flashes apple logo with a white screen and won't play.  What is wrong with it?

    I have a 7th Generation iPod Nano that started flashing the Apple logo with a white background.  I have tried Diagnostics, restoring the iPod and even resetting it.  At one point it was in a Restore Loop.  I'm thinking maybe it has a virus but reading further says that I may be missing one of the drivers.  Is there any way to fix it without taking into a tech?? Please help...miss my music!!
