When my ipod nano 6th generation is on shuffle, it plays only songs from a few artists for a time, then moves on to play songs from other artists. Any ideas how to get it to mix up the songs a little more so i don't have to hear songs more than once?
In a car ride, we hear the same songs twice even though there is over 24 hours of music on it
Well, shut my mouth! There was a similar question over to the right about a 6th generation nano repeating over and over again -- I read the answer to that one, followed the instructions, and holy crap, it's back to normal.
Is there a name for this when you end up replying to your own aggravating question? That's what I did. Now I can go out and listen. It's only 91 degrees. Heaven. Thanks, Apple.

Ipod nano 6th generation won't shuffle entire library when connected to car
Hello,
I have been connecting my ipod nano 6th generation to my car (a Citroen DS3) using the usb cable. The problem I have is that the music defaults to playing alphabetically through the artists and will not allow me to shuffle my entire music library. I can see my library, arranged by artist, on my cars display and can select which artist I want to listen to, but the car itself will only allow me to shuffle songs for the artist that is currently playing and not the entire library. I cannot control the music that is playing via the ipod itself as it locks itself as it is being used as an accessory.
Has anybody got any ideas?
Many thanks,
AbiThanks, I have to call back 800 692-7752 - the hours are 6AM - 6PM Pacific Time. The recorded message reccommends the site https://expresslane.apple.com - you need your device serial number for this. It's a shame Apple placed this number under the tiny clip on the 6th Generation Nano. (!!!)
Looks like I'll be waiting for the help line to open :/ -
The bottom bar in my email seems to have disappeared which means I can't create, reply or forward any emails. Any auggestions to how to get it back? Touching the bottom of the screen doesn't work. Thanks.
Close all apps in the Multitasking Drawer; Double Tap Home Button to open drawer, Swipe up on each app to close it. Repeat until all apps are closed, touch home screen.
Restart phone, hold both Home and Power/Sleep buttons down at the same time, continue to hold them down until the Apple Logo appears, Release both buttons and wait for phone to restart.
Check email app to see if bottom bar and new email icon have come back.
If not, delete the email account in settings and then add it back in again.
If mail still not working as it should, you may try doing a Reset All Settings reset in Settings => General => Reset => Reset All Settings. You won't lose any data, music, apps, videos,pictures, etc. But you will have to go back in and turn on or off any settings you changed on your phone because everything will be set back to factory defaults. -
i cant get this to stop i have reseted it and everything. i have the 6th generation ipod nano and when i press the little sleep button so i wont press any buttons it turns off or when it dims the light the music will stop i dont know why please help
Your problem is that your iPod is not sensing that your headset is inserted. There is a pin inside the headphone port on the Nano that senses if it is inserted fully. If it does not sense anything, it will pause playback to save battery power. Here are the solutions:
Insert it fully. This will fix it for most of you. Press that thing in there all the way. You should feel and hear a full click when it is fully seated. If you can see ANY silver of the headset jack, it is not fully inserted.
Debris inside the headset port. If you are totally unable to push the headset jack all the way, the most likely problem is that you have crud inside your headphone jack. Try blowing it out or slapping it against your palm with the headset port facing your palm to try and get the stuff out. If you look into he jack with a light, you should be able to see to the bottom. The entire inside of the headset port is white, so if it looks dark at the bottom, that is the crud that is keeping your nano from working.
Headset jack or plug issue. If you cannot solve the problem with 1 or 2, then there is likely something physically wrong with either the headset jack on your headphones or the headset port on the nano.
If none of the above works, you need to take it to the Apple store or wherever you purchased it. I think they are still under warranty.

Hi. I am not technically proficient. I have somehow hit something that is making my email forwards and text to the printer way smaller than what is appearing on my screen. I have looked into everything I can think of in settings and outlook express. If you have any ideas, I would greatly appreciate them. I assume that one click and I'll be back to "normal", but can't figure out which darned click that would be. Thanks.
Have you checked Outlook's font preferences? You can change to size under General Preferences>Fonts. You can also change font sizes by using ⌘shift+

HT1616 My Ipod Nano 6th generation loses its calibration everytime it shuts off.
My Ipod Nano 6th generation loses its calibration everytime it shuts off. It shows calibration successful each time, but after going to sleep and waking back up its says 'uncalibrated'. Do I need to return the Ipod?
I had the same problem. Someone here told me to make sure my earbuds were in securely. Push until they click in place. It solved the problem. The music still plays even though the screen goes to sleep. Hope this helps.

Check your warranty status here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
If you are still covered either continue there to send it in or make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store. You do not need the receipt. -

Hello I just found a problem with my Ipod nano 6th generation. It worked fine an hour ago but then the screen turned a dark grey. Did the restore through Itunes and then it went white. But now it's totally unresponsive and seems to be off even when it is plugged into itunes. Can't even restore it. I get Error 1415?
Hi clarity,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
You may want to first try removing and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes by following the steps in this article:

If you continue to receive the error message when connecting your iPod, see this article for more troubleshooting tips:

When listening to an audio book the ipod nano (6th generation) keeps turning off?
Help! I just purchased an ipod nano (6th generation) for the sole purpose of listening to audio books. When I start a book about 20 seconds into it the screen goes dark and the ipod stops...then I have to turn the on/off switch on to begin the book again. I'm sure it has something to do with the settings, but I cannot locate the information I need in the ipod manual. Any help anyone can give me would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I saw your other post, but thought I would reply here as well. It is all about getting that headset seated all the way. If you can see any silver of the plug, it is not in far enough. Push harder. If it just won't go in, look in there to see if it is blocked. The bottom of the headset port is white, so if it appears all dark at the bottom... something is in there.

My iPod Nano 6th generation fell one time and it kept working with a small crack in the screen.But after a while it just gave out and does not turn on.I try to charge it and all it does is blink the apple icon on and off.When disconnected nothing happens.
I am having the identical trouble as described above with my month old Macbook Air. I tried everything with the ditto results. Please help anyone!
Mine is a Macbook Air 13', 128GB, 1.86GHz with 4 GB RAM. -
My ipod (nano, 6th generation) won't sync to a new computer with different stuff on it. Itunes on the new computer doesn't give the usual warning that you are about to lose all your existing stuff and the ipod *appears* to sync but when it's done it still has the stuff from the other computer on it. What to do?
