Which iPod Nano on OS X 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1?

Hello,
I'd like to know which iPod Nanos (i.e. generations/models) I can use with OS X 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1.  I can't find such a compatibility chart on the site.
Note that I am not interested in syncing my laptop iTunes and the iPod per se.  All I want to do is for the iPod to mount as an external drive/device via USB, copy selected mp3s to it, and then independently play them.
Thanks for any info.

You can't directly copy them and play them. I believe the 3rd Generation and below will work with your setup. You would need to set up the Nano to manually manage your music and drag them from your iTunes library to your Nano.

  • My Ipod NANO cannot be detected by my PC and Itunes

    Also i might add that on my full green battery sign i see some sort of plug sign which ive never seen before, maybe thats because its at its maximum battery capacity right now?
    But thats not all, when my Backlight dims, a big green battery sign appears with a plug on it. I cant recall ever seeing such a screen on my ipod, maybe this means something?

    I wish I could help. I have seen this question so many places since the problem began for me that I can only assume that either Apple does not care about the problem or that, as I have begun to suspect, this is just a serpentine way to get people to buy a new one every year.
    Well, sorry, I don't have that kind of cash. Not many people have it to spare right now, either. They can help me use the one I have or lose a customer. Because I don't have such a pressing need for iTunes without that iPod. And the online help didn't help. I'll be danged if I'm going to wipe every song off the iPod without knowing for certain that it will fix the problem and that I will be able to put them back! So it's just a fancy music box now, by the looks of it, isn't it? Whatever is on there already is all I get. So be it. I won't be buying another.
    I hope they respond soon, but it looks bleak. There's an unholy number of unanswered questions on here, and none of the answered ones seem to have been addressed by Apple people.

  • Ipod Nano does not appear in "My Computer" and "Itunes"

    I was charging my Ipod Nano. I erased all the songs from the nano to create a new playlist. The Ipod froze in the "Do not disconnect" phase. It was disconnected a few hours later (not intentionally). Now it has disappeared from Itunes and the computer does not recognize it. The Ipod screen still says "Do not Disconnect". I have tried to reconnect the device many times. I have tried to "toggle the hold button" and even shut the computer down and restarted it to see if it would recognize the ipod. No luck. I cannot turn the ipod on and the screen is still dark and the "Do Not Disconnect" seems to be perminant. HELP!

    See if any of these articles help.

  • Is the iPod nano [second generation] supported by OS Lion and iTunes 10

    Hi All
    I cannot "see" my 2nd gen iPod nano on iTunes 10.6 running on a new iMac with OS Lion.
    I have worked through the various troubleshooters to no avail. Have Apple ceased to support the 2nd gen nano?

  • ITunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video. Any thoughts on why not?

    iTunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video.
    I'm using 2 PCs, each with video files (.MP4) on their respective hard drives, and also one external drive with other video files on that I move between the two devices.
    iTunes on one PC will (sometimes!) let me add video content from the external hard drive, which is clearly iTunes-compatible, because I can then copy it over to my iPod Nano. On the other PC, I couldn't load that same video from the external hard drive. But if I copied that same video on to the PC's internal hard drive first, then iTunes would let me import it. That was yesterday - now iTunes is refusing to load any files from the internal or external hard drive(s).
    Any thoughts or suggestions, please?

    So I tried copying the files from the external hard drive to a USB drive. I could import the video files from the USB drive!
    So then I tried importing the same files on to my PC's internal hard drive again. I could import the video files from the internal hard drive!
    So then I tried to import the very same files that failed to load on the very same PC previously. I could now import them!
    I still can't import from the external hard drive directly, though.
    I really don't think I like the process of importing things into iTunes very much... any suggestions on what's causing any of this behaviour would be very interesting.

    My Ipod nano generation 3 is not being recognized by itunes as a device?  It shows it connected by doesnt sync

    Thanks KT, after following your advice the iPod nano and the two cameras are now visible in iTunes or iPhoto and also in Finder.
    The cameras continue to work consistently with iPhoto but since trying to complete a 'Restore' with the iPod nano I've had a string of error messages and it is now no longer useable. I'll be posting for help on this in the iPod discussion forum.

  • I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

    I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?

    If I go from 'Devices' to Summary and then Music, I only get one option-Sync Music,There is a box on this page but the options within it are grayed out. If I tick the Sync Music option I get this message-
    'Are you sure you want to remove existing music,films,ect, from this ipod and sync with this itunes library?
    'Music synced to (my ipods name) from other itunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this itunes library' I have only ever used itunes on this PC and the 'Manually manage music and videos' is ticked but
    that must be a default setting as I haven't ticked it.

  • 3rd gen iPod Nano will not sync with latest version of iTunes. It passes the connectivity test but not the sync test under diagnostics.  Worked fine on old Windows 7 laptop but not new one.  From Control Panel it shows up as an Apple iPod USB Device...

    Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
    There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

  • IPod nano 5th Gen appears in Finder but not iTunes

    I am trying to restore my 5th Generation iPod Nano, but it will not show up in iTunes 12.0.1.26. It does however appear in Finder as a disk image allowing me to access certain directories, like Calendars, Contacts, DCIM, Notes, and Recordings. I've tried resetting the iPod, putting it in Disk Mode, etc. I've gone through all the support. I've tried using iExplorer. Does anyone know anything else I can try?

    Hi jthias,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your iPod nano is not appearing in iTunes and you have already completed some great troubleshooting. In this situation, I would suggest continuing troubleshooting by completing the steps in the attached iPod nano Troubleshooting Assistant.

    I currently have iPod Nano with 1.1.1 software update and iPod Radio Remote, but even after the update I do't get the radio option to appear in the main menu or music menu, with the option in settings turn ON. Why isn't this thing working?

    hiya!
    just doublechecking something. are you connecting the remote directly to the nano, or are you connecting it to a Dock and putting the ipod in the dock?
