Why isnt the new nano(7th) workout friendly? Wheres' the clip?

My nano 6th generation went in the washer, is there anyway to fix it without buying a 220$ new one? Id get the new nano, but theres no clip, kinda worthless.

I'm sure lots of people will be along with water resistant cases with clips.
You can do an out-of-warranty replacement at your nearest Apple Store for $65/$75. You will get a service replacement.

I recently purchased the new nano (7th generation) and I love it except for one issue. On my old 2nd generation nano, when I played podcasts, it would play podcasts one at a time. So if I had 20 episodes of a podcast on the device, it would stop at the end of each one.
With the new nano, I can select and play a podcast, but when it’s over, it goes straight to the next one without prompting. It keeps on playing all of the episodes of any podcast until you stop it manually. Setting the repeat function differently does not prevent episodes from being played automatically.
This can be very irritating when I only want to listen to one podcast. I’ve often fallen asleep listening to one episode of a podcast, only to be woken up hours later by the iPod working its way through all subsequent episodes. It is also annoying that any podcast which has started automatically in this way is marked as ‘played’ – even if you stop it within a few seconds. This makes it hard to keep track of what you have actually listened to.
Is there any way to set the iPod to play all the podcasts individually? I have read the User Guide from cover to cover, and can’t find a way of doing this.

Dude or hot-spur,
Not fishy at all!!!! You really think I would have taken any more of my time to post a bogus rant? We'll no, it is unfortunately all true. I want to hear from anyone who is experiencing such problems not anyone else that wants to put there two cents in. I really don't need anymore hate or negativity. Just people's experiences because I feel like I am the only one having so many problems. Thank you
Yes, I have had some unfortunate bad luck to have so many problems at the same time, but some of them are just things you cannot do on the new OS.
Thank you again

Where is the REPEAT Function on the New Nano?

Can someone from Apple please explain to me why in the world would your techs have forgotten to incorporate the REPEAT function into the new Nano (7th Gen). I know that I can SHUFFLE my music, but I rarely ever use that option.
What I want is to be able to REPEAT a playlist (or album) over and over and over again. Why can we no longer do this?

Tap the screen while a song is playing and then tap the repeat icon.

Is there a arm band case for the new nano?

Why does my lightening wire not fit the ipod nano 7th gen

Could someone tell me why does my lightening wire now not fit the ipod nano (7th gen)? I push it in but it seems to spring out and not fully connect. I only bought it 1 year ago and it is been great, but now I think it needs to go in the bin

I agree, sounds like there's something in the port on the Nano. Try cleaning it out with a can of compressed air, or a gently with a wooden toothpick.

I use my new nano (7th gen) to listen to books on CD that i sync from my mac. The problem is, it stops at the end of each CD. How can I get it to continue on to the hanks, Wendy

Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones? You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack. Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage. You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?

Brand new Nano 7th gen has no sound!

Brand new Nano 7th gen has no sound. I've tried 3 different headphones, turned volume up, watched the bar indicate the song is on play, cannot find a mute switch (or indicator on screen) and can't understand why I can't hear music. Can there be an earphone jack problem on a brand new Nano? Help please!

Are the headphones plugged all the way in? Does the FM radio work?

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.

I have 10.5.8 and want to install the new itunes 10.7, in order to sync the new nano , but i am unable to. Do I have to upgrade to snow leopard in order to sync new nano?

I have an imac (2009) with OS X 10.5.8 and i need to install the new itunes (10.7) in order to sync my new nano (7th generation). Do I have to upgrade my software to Snow Leopard in order to run itunes 10.7? How to I go about this?

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

Problems using new nano during workouts

I bought my new nano for more capacity than my 1st gen, which still works fine. But the touch screen does not work as well for me as the clickwheel did. The best location for the nano is clipped to my waistband, and I can operate the clickwheel by feel, to change volume or skip or repeat selections, which I do frequently during long workouts. But the touchscreen goes to sleep, and in any case I can't find the controls without taking off the new nano and looking at the screen. Sweaty clothes rubbing over it also actuate the touchscreen menus sometimes. So I've given up on using it and have gone back to using my old nano. Too bad, Apple presents the new nano as a workout tool but it certainly doesn't work that way for me. I'll try to figure out some way to get rid of it and get a slightly older refurb-ed nano with a clickwheel.

I'm sitting at my computer right now with my 6th Generation Nano (Product Red) and my Ultimate Ears headphones and that adapter. I'm able to skip to the next song, return to the start of that song, pause, hear voiceover, raise the volume, lower the volume, ...Works like a champ and I've never had a problem with sweat getting into the switches when I used it with my 3rd Generation Shuffle OR with my 6th Generation Nano.
I do suggest you use Google and find a plastic docking plug for the Nano when you use it while working out. It says that about the adapter because that is what it was developed for. It will work just fine with the Etymotic.

Brand new nano 7th gen, firmware file corrupt, running windows 7

brand new nano 7th gen, running windows 7, on first plugin I get the message "the ipod XXXX could not be updated because the firmware file was corrupt" The strange thing is that it gave my nano a name - maybe confused with an old ipod??

I have the same issue. IPOD just arrived, connected to itunes, corrupt!

TS1363 I can not put my music on the new nano because itunes does not recognize my ipod.

I had an ipod nano 5th gen and bought the new nano with a completely different loading dock. The computer tells me to reinstall itunes but im not sure why beacuse all my music is saved on the account i created for the last one. Do I have to reinstall itunes for my computer to recognize the new ipod? What will happen to my music?

What is the exact error message you are receiving?
As to re-installing iTunes, it will have no affect on the content you actually have stored in iTunes such as your music. After you finish re-installing iTunes, everything should be right where you left it in your iTunes library.

The New Nano: Should I Buy?

I posted this question on the Macworld forum in response to their iPod Buying Guide, but figured I'd ask it here too. Here's my dilemma:
I have a first-gen iPhone (8GB) that I got last December running the 2.2 software update and have roughly 1100 songs on the iPod. It works great. My problem now is, ever since the new Nano was released, I've been smitten with it, especially after test-driving one at Best Buy. After that experience, I really, really want one.
And that's my issue: I WANT one, even though logic tells me I don't need it.
I should mention that I'm a little OCD when it comes to my iPod cuz I only have complete albums on there -- no playlists, singles, etc. I got a 2GB Shuffle last April so I could load up on all those hit singles that I don't want littering my iPhone's iPod. It's worked well for me -- just feed the little guy when I want and listen to it whenever the mood strikes.
I guess what I'm really asking is, is there any justifiable (practical) reason to getting a Nano?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

The tech can be addictive!
In my case, I picked up a new Nano and relegated my old smaller capacity iPod to permenant Car duty with all my audiobooks.
If you are completely happy with what you have, why change?
However, if you decide you need more capacity or some other feature the new Nano has that your iPod does not, then go for it.
