Video play back on ipod nano 6th gen

Just curious, since the 7th gen has video playback features, is apple going to have a firmware update for 6th gen ipod nano to play video as well?

More than likely not, but since all of us here are only end users like yourself, nobody would know such information and its against the Terms of Use of these forums to speculate. Sorry.

I have the same problem and can't seem to figure out what the problem is. I rebuilt my iTunes library and still my 6G nano crahes whenever I load an AAC tune onto it. MP3s and podcasts all work fine, it's just the AACs...
Just *loading* an AAC song will cause the Nano 6G to reboot as soon as it disconnects from Itunes. It will then reboot a few times and then go into recovery mode. :-(

IPod nano 6th gen won't play my music.

My iPod nano 6th gen has worked fine for years and when I synced it recently it would play some tunes fine, cut some off mid-way through and skip some completely. The first thing I done was just tried to sync it again but this didn't make a difference so I reset my iPod through iTunes and synced it again but this made it worse, when I pressed play it comes up with the pause button but if I go to the next screen where you can see how far through the song is the bar wasn't moving, so the tunes aren't playing, so following this I formatted my iPod on my pc and then reset it on iTunes (I had to replace the folders I had removed during formatting) and that didn't do anything it still won't play anything. It's not my headphones as they work fine in my pc, and it's not my music as it worked fine before and they all play fine on my pc. What else can I do?

What do you mean by select tracks? It will only play particular tracks or repeatedly play a particular track? What format are these problem tracks in?

I lost all my songs in my ipod Nano 6th gen. when attempting to transfer from old lybrary to new. Can I get them back?

I lost all my old library in my ipod Nano 6th gen when trying to understand how to sync to new laptop. Can I get them back?

If they are gone, then your question is answered.
If you synced your ipod to a different computer, then the current content of the ipod would be erased.
You cannot sync the music from the ipod to the computer. It sync from the comptuer to the ipod.
If the music is gone, then it is gone.
Not sure how you think this didn't help you.
Your music is only where you put it. If you synced your ipod to another computer, erasing the ipod, then the music is not on the ipod any longer.
Not sure what else you are looking for.

Ipod nano 6th gen videos movies apps?

hey, i was wondering if the new ipod nano 6th gen touch can get podasts, tv shows, music videos, apps tht DONT REQUIRE WIFI ,movies or anything of the sort... plz let me know ASAP!1 thx guys! <3

No, the 6th Gen Nano does NOT support video. It does not say that in the description. Find the tech specs here:
http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/specs.html
Video podcasts can be loaded, but then you will just get a frame from the video as album art and the audio of the podcast.

I just got a ipod nano 6th gen, and ive been using it for 2 days, and it seems that the battery just lasts about half a day, on playing 1 to 3 songs in intervals of 1-2 hours. Whats wrong with my ipod?

Your nano would really have nothing to do with it at that point. It is really something between iTunes and whatever server out there on the internet that it is trying to connect to for the update.
Try posting this one in the iTunes forum, they might have a solution for you.

IPod Nano 6th Gen - Functional but white screen on pressing wake/sleep button

Hi
I have an iPod Nano 6th Gen (out of warranty & applecare) - hasn't been dropped etc & never had any trouble.
This morning I got the white screen after unplugging it from charging.
I have tried hard reboot (power button + vol down). I have put it into disc mode (hard reboot + both volume buttons) and restored it to factory settings from itunes (10.6.3) . I've even put it into diagnostic mode and looked around to see if there were any tests I could do.
Functionally the ipod works ok - plays music, volume changes, and it will shuffle on shaking/ play pause on double pressing the power button.
The problem is when I switch off the screen by pressing the power button once - if I try to switch the screen on again I only get the white screen (although this doesn't affect music playing etc).
The way to get around this is either doing a hard reboot (which is a pain as it removes all my settings) or by switching off the ipod, waiting 5 minutes, then switching it on again (this preserves my settings). If I switch off the ipod and try to switch it back on within 5 mins, it's straight to the white screen.
The only other odd thing I noticed was that the screen was shaky/jolty and graphics not quite lining up etc, but this only lasted 10s and went once I started playing music...
Any ideas as to what is causing this? I'm guessing maybe a hardware problem but it seems strange that there is no white screen on switching on, just from waking.
It was a present from my dad and I'm very fond of it so would like to keep it/fix it if possible!
Thankyou!

Hello bfsf,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your iPod nano (6th generation) displays a white screen after waking from sleep. First let my say that you have completed some great isolation and troubleshooting steps on your own. Because the issue is still present after the fantastic troubleshooting you already completed, it may be necessary to have this iPod evaluated for service. If you would like more information on this process, please read over the information in the attached link.

Ipod nano 6th gen, wierd functionality problems

I got this ipod nano 6th gen refurbished from apple a year back. I just started using it and found that after I synced it with my itunes, i have the following problems :
1. The screen display is opposite than my previous ipod (landscape vs portrait).
2. I have to manually change to next song most of the time.
3. When I change songs, it plays a song a few seconds and then skips a few before stopping on a song.
4. The song playing is not the song displayed on the screen.
Tried restoring to factory settings. Same issues. Can someone help?

Hi zenpal1,
If you are having multiple issues with your iPod nano that persist after a factory restore, you may need to have your iPod evaluated or serviced. You may find the following page helpful:

Ipod nano 6th gen keeps disconnecting

Hi all, I have a 2 year old ipod nano 6th gen and when I first brought it I synced it with my windows 7 computer. I now have a mac so about a month ago I started syncing it with my mac, and all was fine. However, I noticed it wasnt syncing my 25 top played about two weeks ago so I did a system restore. After I disconnecting my ipod (which is the final stage in the restore) I then connected it again to sync all my music back on to the ipod, but after about 50 songs it came up with a pop up box saying that I had disconnected the ipod so it couldnt be synced, however I had not touched the ipod. I have also tried a friend's ipod cord and I have tried syncing my ipod with my old windows 7 computer but when I try to sync it it still says after about 50 songs that I have disconnected the ipod. I have turned off automatic sync and I have tried restarting the ipod and my computer and nothing has helped, any ideas?

then try to do this:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and Volume Down button simultaneously for at least eight seconds or until the Apple logo appears. You may need to repeat this step. If the above step did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to power.

IPod nano 6th gen

My iPod nano (6th gen) won't sync to iTunes. I have tried un and reinstalling iTunes, reseting my iPod, and have unchecked enable disc use and manually manage music and vidoes. When I click on sync it shows on both my iPod and in iTunes that it is syncing, however no music (or other items) show up on my iPod, and the it is the same with iTunes nothing on my iPod will show up there ( I recently got a new laptop (asus windows 8.1) and have used this iPod and iTunes without any trouble previously) I have been through all of the iPod help instructions and completed them sucsessfully. I'm really not a technical wizz, PLEASE help me!!??

Hello Elblp,

My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pockey and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed

My ipod nano 6th gen fell out of my pocket and the screen cracked badly, is there any coverage for this under warranty? I just bought it a month ago. If not what are the options for getting it fixed? It is pretty frustrating, it fell from about 3 feet out of my pocket and now looks like it was beaten by a hammer.

he advises restarting by inserting the OSX disc and pressing down the C button to reboot from there then selecting disk utility, hard disk and repair.... Does he mean me to hold down the C key on the alpha keyboard or the ctrl key?
Should I just ask for my money back??? If it is a simple repair do I just literally push the disc in, push the power button and hold down the C button?
That's where I would begin, too, with
Repair Disk
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

My ipod nano (6th gen) keeps connecting and disconnecting itself from my computer can anyone help?

I have read numerous posts online about the same problem but can't seem to sort mine out. I've tried changing power leads, restoring back till an older version of itunes, resetting the ipod, restarting my computer and tried every USB port in sight but still nothing.
I have plugged a friends ipod touch into my computer and it connects and appears in itunes fine, but with mine it wont stay connected long enough for me to try and restore anything with it on itunes its literally a 1 second interval between connected and ejecting. I thought maybe it could be the connection terminal on the ipod but i have had it connected to a wall charger and xbox with it staying connected with no problems.
I am running windows vista on the computer and the nano was previously synced to a different itunes could this be the problem and if so how do I go about fixing it??
Thanks

I too am having this same issue. I connect my iPod nano (6th gen), and it appears for anywhere between 1 to 10 seconds and then automatically ejects.
I'm running a macbook pro with OS X 10.6.8 and the most up to date version of iTunes. The strange thing is that the nano works fine on my old macbook from 2007; which also has the most up to date iTunes but is running OS X 10.5. Another thing is that my iPod touch works just perfectly on my MacBook Pro.
I have read up on a lot of forums, and have found little help for those who are running into this problem on a Mac. The majority of fixes are for PC. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have updated to windows 8.1 from windows 8. My ipod nano (6th gen) is no longer identified properly in itunes. I have tried all steps in the troubleshooting guide but it has not resolved the issue. What can I do?

I'm not sure if it charged when I hooked it up to my roommate's computer, but it definately didn't register either. If I put it on the dock it plays so the port is fine, but that still doesn't help me sync it to my computer.
