Video out on ipod nano 7th generation

I am trying to determine if I can play video out to TV with the latest ipod nano (7th gen). I found a support page( iPhone, iPad, iPod: TV out support) which suggests its possible from 3rd gen onwards but I'm not sure that page is up to date for 7th gen, especially as the suggested cables are 30 pin rather than lightning.
If it is possible then which cable should I use? Prefer HDMI but composite or component would do.

That is normal.

ipod nano 7th generation having issues with the UI. Out of box everything worked great. Once I snyc the device and it finished, the UI becomes unuesable. You have to double tap every icon in order to open music, videos, etc. I cannot swipe to the second page of icons, black box appears around an icon and then switches to a different one anytime I swipe. A box even appears around the time and battery power. iPod & iTunes are both updated. What is the FIX on this issue?

I had this problem as well. This is what I found by searching online. I tried the fix on my nano 7th gen and it worked. I hope this helps you. Make sure to use two fingers for sliding and double-click the icons to get into settings. Good luck.
It would seem that Voiceover has been enabled on your iPod Nano. The following article contains information regarding Voiceover, and how to disable it once it's been enabled.

To turn off VoiceOver on iPod nano using VoiceOver gestures
From the Home Screen, swipe right or left with two fingers until you see or hear "Page 2 of 2" on iPod nano (7th generation) or "Settings" on iPod (6th generation).
If the icons have been rearranged, or if there are more than four Home screens, you may hear something different.
Slide one finger around the screen until you hear Settings.
Double-tap to open Settings.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear General, then double- tap.
Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear Accessibility, then double-tap.

IPod Nano 7th Generation - Bad out of the box?

I just purchased the iPod Nano 7th generation today and came home to sync it with iTunes. iTunes recognizes the device for a second then I receive a "Disk was not ejected properly. If possible, always eject a disk before unplugging it or turning it off." message. I can see the iPod in iTunes for a second then it disappears. As I keep it plugged in it will recognize, disappear, reapear then disappear again.
I purchased an iPod Touch 5th generation today and that is working just fine (as well as synching my other iDevices). Is this nano bad out of the box?

Same thing happened to me. It did download the playlists I wanted, but the next time I plugged it in it acted as though it was being plugged in for the very first time, (regsitration and set up etc.)
But the really bad news is the BATTERY LIFE. maybe get one hour of play time before it drains to zero.
Anyone else have this issue?

My iPod nano 7th generation won't sync video

My iPod nano 7th generation will sync music but not video. I have updated iTunes and restored the iPod even gone into the Apple store and nothing has helped. How do I get around this problem???

Not all iTunes video can be transferred to iPod, If the video resolution or video bit rate beyond iPod limitation, you can't upload them to iPod. For example, some iTunes purchased movie are High definition movie, the resolution is too high to play on iPod. If the videos are in your iTunes, you can right-click the video to highlight it, and then select "Create iPod or iPhone Version". iTunes will automatically convert the video to iPod compatible format. When the conversion process has completed, sync the new version to your iPod. For more info, here is a guide about how to convert and transfer video to iPod nano. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

My ipod nano 7th generation won't sync ratings to itunes. What can I do?

Hi,
I have an Ipod nano 7th generation bought about a month ago and usually has no problems.
I've been having an issue with it where it won't sync songs' ratings from the Nano to Itunes. My Ipod is set to manually manage Music and Video. And no ratings are added to the Itunes Music library when I press sync.
Can anyone help me solve this problem?
Thank-you.

This is literally driving me crazy.
I spend days, or more likely months rating my itunes library.
I was happy to get this new ipod as it would permit me to finish rating my songs, as I used to with my old ipods.
Its only about 3 weeks after buying this new ipod do i realize that it is randomly changing song ratings. It has therefore changed all the ratings i painstakingly had made. After trying many different ways to find out where the problem was coming from, I even did the drastic move of unrating all my songs, both on the ipod and itunes. Sure enough, when i plugged it back in to sync it, it was giving me new random ratings for about 40 songs, even though they had previously been totally blank.
I'm extremely surprised I can't find any information about this. This bug has killed all the work I had spent trying to organize my library, and leaves me feeling quite disgusted.
edit:
There seems to be an all around problem with this new ipod. It isn't showing the play count for songs I know i listened to, and it's adding random songs in my top 25 most played that i never listened to.
An answer would be very nice.

I have an ipod nano 7th generation and can not get it recognised by my Windows 8.1 laptop (it appears briefly on My computer, then disappears). This happened after I updated iTunes to the latest version. Does that have something to do with it?

Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone can help me. I recently got my first ever Ipod. It's the new Ipod Nano 7th Generation. I have tried to synchronise it with Itunes but it says "Connected, Eject before Disconnecting" but nothing happens.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone can help me. I recently got my first ever Ipod. It's the new Ipod Nano 7th Generation. I have tried to synchronise it with Itunes but it says "Connected, Eject before Disconnecting" but nothing happens. I have tried uninstalling & re-installing Itunes but this didnt help.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

I think the problem is that the iPod got set to Manually manage music and videos. It needs to be set up for automatic syncing again. Just unchecking that Manually manage music and videos setting does not do it.
In iTunes 12, select the iPod in iTunes (using the device button), so that you see the iPod's "management" screen. In the sidebar (along left side of screen), there are two headings (Settings and On My Device). Under Settings, click on Music. To the right, you see the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
Check the box at the top for Sync Music. That turns ON automatic syncing for music. Below that, choose the option to sync Entire music library (assuming your music library fits completely on your iPod). Otherwise, you can choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres and make your selections below. Then click Apply.

Ipod Nano 7th generation touch interface is now screwed with due to apple update.

Hi, I recently purchased a new laptop switching over from a macbook pro 2010 of which the logicboard died. In this newly configured windows 7 64 bit laptop I downloaded the latest itunes. I then connected my ipod nano 7th generation to it and it requested to format it since it was formatted for a mac. I did so and restored my ipod nano 7th generation. After this however my previously perfectly working nano touch interface (swiping, touch to select) is now completely messed up. This has to be due to the formatting and/or the new nano update or itunes update from apple. I can't even swipe to the right or left to move between screen interfaces on my nano anymore. As well the touch icons require double taps and have rectangular white selection boxes over each icon (NOT NORMAL)
Overall I am very displeased and want apple to fix this with either a new firmware nano 7th generation update or apple itunes update for windows 7 64bit. I'm thinking of buying a replacement iphone 4 but now that this issue is prevalent how can I TRUST Apple that nothing wrong will occur with connecting a new iphone 4 to my itunes on a windows 7 64 bit PC.
I am NOT the only one with this issue as you can check out for yourself: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20130727205241AAOmiuC
REASON FOR POSTING THIS HERE: I want more exposure to this issue. I couldn't get access to customer support since my ipod nano 7th generation is over a year old. This is cruel but whatever, Apple does what it wants and I will post this here to do what I want. Gain exposure to this defect that clearly Apple is not addressing since the above link displays a user with the same issue and posted the problem 3 months ago.
DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS APPLE

Hi ImAMinion.
Very good question. I should have explained that part. VoiceOver changes how the navigation functions so it's a little tricky.
From the home screen I got to settings by swiping up and down instead of the normal left and right.
To open settings I first tapped once on the settings icon so that the box appeared around the icon. Then I double tapped the icon to open it.
I repeated the "tap once to get the box then double tap to open" process to navigate through the settings menu. Navigate to: Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> VoiceOver -> set to off. Once it's off the navigation will return to normal.
Hope that helps.

Why won't my BRAND NEW iPod Nano 7th Generation recognize headphones?

My BRAND NEW iPod Nano 7th Generation (purchased from and Apple Store less than a week ago) will not recognize any headphones. Consequently, I can hear NO sounds. It worked just fine right after I set it up. I turned it off, disconnected headphones that came with the Nano. Several hours later I turned it on again, plugged in the headphones, and then I could hear NOTHING. When I tried the radio, I got the message there was no signal because it said the headphones were not plugged in, which they were. I have tried two other sets of headphones. None work, but they all work in another iPod, so I know it is not the headphones. I restored the software and started over, but this didn't help either. I have pushed the headphone jack in as far as possible. This is very frustating because this Nano was a birthday gift for my husband. I will be grateful for any help. Thanks a lot.

Thanks SO much for the GREAT advice! I did just what you said, and I am back in business. The sound is fine, and the radio works. I cleaned out the jack with a tooth pick, blew some air in, and pushed the jack in a bit harder.I guess I was too tentative about pushing the jack all the way in. You were right that it is a tight fit. Thanks again, deggie. My husband thanks you also! His birthday gift now works! Yay!

Ipod nano 7th generation usb problem

New iPod nano 7th generation not being recognized when USB plugged in. Not showing a new device or anything. Have uninstalled/installed iTunes7. USBs working with other devices including iPhone4S. Using Windows 7 Home version with all updates. Have rebooted several times. No other USB devices plugged in while connecting new nano. Tried on another machine with Windows 7 Professional with same results - not working. Any suggestions? What am I missing? Any new drivers for 7th generation? Did see OS 1.01 already available for nano, but cannot download until PC and iTunes recognize the device. Thanks.

I figured out the problem. Very simple, but overlooked at first. It was the cable that came with the iPod nano. I plugged it into an outlet using my iPhone cube charger, then connected my nano. It would not recharge the nano. Went to the Apple store and exchanged it for one that charged the nano while there. When i plugged the new one into the PC it recognized the nano, opened iTunes and walked me thru the usual setup. Synced with no problems.
So check your cord.

IPod nano 7th generation sensor issue

I just got an iPod nano 7th generation. I'm trying to figure out the nike fitness section. It keeps telling me "not linked to sensor" when I try to set up a run. I was under the impression that I wouldn't have to buy a separate sensor. Is this true? Can someone help me figure out what to do? Thanks!

You need to disable the nike + sensor in Nike app in your ipod. When disabled you will be able to do run/walk workout using the built-in pedometer. Cheers!
