The screen on my iPod Nano (6th generation) has gone totally black.  When I plug it in to my Mac, iTunes can see it.  I've charged it for 3 hrs and tried restoring it via iTunes.  Still no joy.  Any suggestions?

He iPod most likely died or broke on its own

  • How do I rotate the screen on my iPod nano (6th generation)?

    Pretty much as the title says. It is currently stuck upside down, however before then it was stuck the right way up. Have had it for about a week now
    Have also tried resetting it, with no luck.
    Anyone experience anything similar/have a fix?
    Thanks a lot

  • My ipod nano 6th generation has a black spot on the screen

    My Ipod nano 6th generation has a black spot on the screen where it appears that it was pressed by a thumb.  Do I need to replace the screen or will it eventually correct itself after pressure is removed?

  • The screen on my ipod nano 7th generation went blank

    Hello eramosf,
    I would be concerned too if my iPod nano had a black screen.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Will not turn on or screen remains dark
    Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
    If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting the device while it is still connected to power. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo should appear after a few seconds, then the Home screen should appear.
    If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
    If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
    I got this information from the following article for the 6th generation iPod nano.  The steps are the same, except I updated the second step with the reset for the 7th generation iPod nano:

  • The screen on my ipod nano 2nd generation turns black. It still plays music. I've tried resetting the ipod to clear the black screen and the screen goes back to it's normal state but after a few minutes the screen goes black again.

    The screen on my ipod nano, 2nd generation, turns black. It stills plays music. I've tried resetting the ipod to clear the black and the screen goes back to it's original state. But after a few minutes the screen turns black again, while the music is still playing. What can I do about this?

    That's just the iPod's backlight timer going off, signaling the iPod's backlight to turn off to conserve battery power.

  • How do you get the music from my ipod nano 6th generation onto itunes?

    I'm trying to get the music i have from my nano that o got from a my mac desktop to my pc laptop but i dont know how to donwload the music onto itunes.

    You'll want to copy all your music on your flash drive over to your empty iTunes library first.  Once you have successfully done that, plug your Nano in and choose the Erase and Sync option as long as you are 100% positive that all the content on your Nano is now in your iTunes library.
    The Erase and Sync operation will wipe all content from the iPod, associate the iPod with the new iTunes library, and then allow you to sync content back to the Nano from iTunes.

  • My iPod Nano 6th generation will not turn on when off of the a power source. I've tried to restore it, but that didn't work. Any suggestions?

    I also tried holding the sleep/power button along with the minus button to reset it and that did not work either. Any help would be great, thanks.

    If you update the iPod software to the latest version (1.1) you should be able to power off the iPod. If that doesn't work especially since you restored it's most likely a hardware issue with the iPod. If so, contact AppleCare or visit an Apple Retail Store so they can setup a repair for you.

  • Hey, the stand-by button on my iPod nano 6th gen has been randomly stuck/pushed into the ipod were it does no longer work. How do i fix it?

    Hey, the stand-by button on my iPod nano 6th generation has been pushed into the iPod, I guess after being pressed a lot, to the point were it doesn't work, what do I do to fix this???

    You'll need to take or send the iPod in for service or repair either via Apple or a third party company that does repair work on iPods.

    Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
