Using Speakers with the ipod nano...help?!

Hi, I was hoping someone could help me. I have the ipod nano and am planning a party. The room is very long and narrow. I was wondering if I can connect speakers to the nano to reach both ends of the room (about 200 feet long). We really want it as background music. Which speakers should I get?
I also have a pretty good docking station, can I connect speakers to it? Do they make cords long enough to reach both ends of the room?
Thanks so much!!!

You can certainly attach speakers to your nano, but there are a few things to think about:
1. If you try to run the nano off its battery during the party, you may find that you lose music when the battery runs out. Think about connecting the nano to a charger while the party is going on.
2. Parties typically get pretty loud. The nano is designed to drive headphones, not speakers, so you are not going to get enough volume just by connecting speakers to the headphone jack. You need to either use powered speakers (less good solution) or feed the nano into an amplifier and connect the speakers to the amp (better solution).
Enjoy you party! With the "party shuffle" feature, you can enjoy a great mix.

  • Can I use iCloud with my iPod nano and windows laptop?

    not clear how to use iCloud with an iPod Nano and a Win 8.1 PC

    iCloud doesn't work with the iPod nano directly, and will only work on a PC with an already-existing iCloud account; these need to be created from a Mac or an iOS device.

    Deggie,
    Thanks for the info.  As soon as my Ipod nano needs charging I'll use my A1102 charger.

  • Is it possible to make photos with the Ipod nano 5G?

    Is it possible to make photos with the Ipod Nano 5G?

    No. But you can take a photo of the video with your Mac.
    With the iPod connected to your computer, click on the iPod, open the DCIM folder & move the video file onto your desktop. Play the video & when you get to the part you want to take a picture of, put Quicktime on pause. Take a screen shot (appleshift3) or (appleshift4 for cross hair cropping) of the paused video.

  • Which of these accesories will work 100% with the iPod Nano?

    title about sums it, which will work with the ipod nano:
    Radio Remote
    http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=MA0 70G/A
    AV Connection Kit
    http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=MA2 42LL/A
    ALSO is the av kit overkill for the iPod Nano? The av cable looks like it would not work,no video from Ipod so what the point of a video cable? Also I am pretty sure it doesn't have an ir reciever for a wireless remote so what that part of the av kit be useless too?

    The a/v kit won't work with the nano. Specifically the v part. The audio and the rest will work, though.
    The radio remote works 100% with the nano.

  • What is up with the iPod nano 7th gen.  I just had a second one die. with both after only 3 weeks of useage?

    what is up with the iPod nano 7th gen.  I just had a second one die.  both after only 3 weeks of useage... both dead since Jan 10th 2013.

    this is an answer I just gave to someone else.
    i'm going to ask you to try something I just did to fix a maybe simular problem that worked..... but I don't know why yet........make sure your iPod in plugged into your computer (mine is a Mac) and iTunes is turned on. My iPod  was  also "dead" but had been plugged into my computer for a couple of hours (but not lit up in any way).  Then (in desperation) I held down all the buttons, the on/off (on top right), the small Home botton at the bottom of the face, and the volume/pause buttons (left side).  For whatever reasons my iPod came back to life in a needs restoring mode ....and asked me to restore it in the itunes like "new'  iPod connected mode.  Since I have a Mac I also had to give permission to do a download by entering my computer password. If you have to do the same have that password ready. Then it did a restore software download.  Everything previously on the iPod was erased and had to be re-synced,  but I was just thankful to get it up and restored again.
    Give this a shot and I hope it works for you.....but  why? I don't know yet, I need more questions answered.

  • Does anyone know if the Sony JamBox RDHGTK33IP 420W is compatible with the ipod nano 7th generation?

    It doesn't say so on the box, just the ipod nano 6th and earlier. I am hoping someone already tried using the 7th and has an answer.

    Hello Jay,
    Welcome to the Sony Community.
    The Sony RDH-GTK33iP Home Audio Docking System is not compatible with iPod Nano 7th generation.
    Thank you for your post.

  • Is it possible to get intermediate info while running with the Ipod Nano 6th gen?

    In the store I was told that the Ipod Nano 6th gen would keep me informed every 500m or every km about my distance, average speed etc.
    The Ipod only tells me AFTER the run what my average speed etc was. Not during my run. Is there a possibility to get this info during my run? The store does not know the answer.

    Do you have the Spoken Feedback setting set to On under Settings -> Fitness on the iPod?

  • Need help with the ipod nano

    I installed my ipod nano today and my computer recognizes the ipod but itunes wont' work. when i click on it to start it it brings up the license agreement and then it disappears and itunes never starts. can anyone help?

    hi badgirl!
    when i click on it to start it it brings up the license agreement and then it disappears and itunes never starts.
    gaaah. do you also see a similar sort of thing happen when you try to launch your QuickTime? (a brief flash of the screen, but then nothing?) are you getting absolutely no error messages whatsoever, just the flash and then nothing?
    the most likely cause of those symptoms is infestation of your PC by Qoologic adware. the free trial version of Ewido has been cleaning that up for most people:

  • I can't do anything with my iPod Nano, help urgently!!!

    Hi!
    The other day I was trying to update my iPod nano with the latest iPod software but the program went frozen so I can't do anything. I disconnected the iPod -even when in the iPod window appears the "Do not disconnect"- and I saw that all the songs I had were gone, I tried to connect it again but since that day appears the same "Do not disconnect" but in My PC only appears a new disk unity and in my iTunes doesn't appear anything. I tried to enter to the disk unity but I can't and when I disconnect the iPod, it appears a message of "nothing could be written in the unity G" or something.
    Please, if somebody could help me I would thanks forever!

    Try resetting the iPod: plug it into the wall charger, switch the hold button On and Off, and hold the center button and Menu for about 8 seconds. If that doesn't work, try the other 4 R's: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/
    As a sidenote: when you want to disconnect, you have to either do it through iTunes (click on the grey arrow next to the iPod icon on the left hand side of the iTunes screen), or through Windows Hardware Manager (in the taskbar on the bottom of the screen, double click the icon of a grey box with a green arrow in it-select the iPod & click Stop>OK).

  • Is the ipod doc connector to usb cable the same as the cable that comes with the ipod nano?

    I'm trying to play my ipod nano through a pioneer car stereo using the usb port and it is not working.

    I don't know but I wouldn't plug  it into the car again because it might not be compatable and my friend broke 2 iPodsom pluging them into a car.

  • Still problems with the Ipod Nano 3g and the Nike+ kit??

    I thinking about buying an Ipod Nano and the Nike+ kit tomorrow but now I'm a bit unsure due to some of the problems mentioned here in this forum? Do you still have problems with the commuication between the Nano and the sensor? Are there still problems wtih the distance being wrong or only in km? Should I buy - if possible - a Ipod Nano 2G?
    Regards
    Morten

    Personally I am very happy with my new iPod Nano. It works great with Nike Plus and I love the video and some of the cool features like stopwatch and more. I have an earlier iPod Nano and I was hesitant to buy the new one but I am so glad I did. I don't have any problems uploading data.

  • IPhone to MacBook transfers of files like with the iPod Nano

    I want to transfer Downloaded Email Attachments to my MacBook computer.
    This is possible with the Nano by making space available and transferring by USB cable.
    How can I do that with the iPhone? Can I buy software to do that?

    I believe the only files that can be downloaded to the phone are applications and pictures. If you want the document, i would recommend emailing it to yourself.
