Will my iPod Nano (5th generation) work with iTunes 11.1.3 (8)?

I have not synced it for a while and I do not want to loose what I have. Does anyone have experience with this? I have not heard good things about version 11. I just have music, no videos and maybe an audio book or two, and my iPod is 8 GB. I am running OSX 10.6.8 and do not particularly want to upgrade.
Thanks--

IPod nano 2nd generation works with iTunes but screen blank!

Ive had my black iPod nano 2nd generation for quite a bit of time now, the iPods screen wouldnt come on one day but iTunes acsepted it and so i restored it. The screen was still off and so now im here asking, Please help, Thanks!

Hello upthereds,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
I have purchased a windows 7, 64 bit laptop. I have a 2nd generation iPod Nano if I download the 64 bit version of iTunes will this cause problems with compatibility between my laptop, iTunes version 10.1 and the 2nd generation iPod Nano?
Yes it is compatible and should work. Let us know if you run in any problems though and we'll do what we can to help.

Should an iPod Nano 2nd Generation Work With Windows Vista?

I understand that many people are having problems with their iPods and come here for support and solutions.
I'm just wondering if the iPod Nano 2nd generation 4g I have that is working just fine SHOULD work with latest iTunes on Windows Vista laptop (which I haven't used yet)?

Just to close this out I was able to connect the second generation 4g iPod Nano without issue. In a matter of minutes I had it loaded, recognized by iTunes with up-to-date software, sync with over 900 songs and almost 200 pictures and then ejected (I manually manage music)! Really sorry for those who can't get iTunes and/or iPod to work!

Will an IPod Touch, any generation, work with Windows 7?

Does the Ipod nano 5th gen. work with the built in microphone on Skullcandy headphones?

I want to buy a pair of Skullcandys with a microphone in them, but it wouldnt make sense to pay the extra money for a microphone if my iPod wont work with it. Has anyone ever tried it or know if the headphones would be compatible with the iPod

I would check with Skullcandy's support site. They should be able to provide the most accurate answer.

IPod nano second gen. works with iTunes 7.5, but not with iTunes 7.7

I recently got a new computer and downloaded iTunes 7.7. My iPod would charge for two seconds then disconnect. I tried using the other computer at my home which uses iTunes 7.5 and it works perfectly. It seems like alot of people are having the same problem. Do you think Apple will fix the new version of iTunes?
I have tried doing this : http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304434
and it worked, but the next day my iPod wouldn't charge or connect. I tried doing the same as I had did yesterday to get it working, but it doesn't work.
I have also tried plugging iPod into all my USB ports, but still no luck.
Anytime I restart my computer and open up Services, Terminal Services is always shown as stopped. Could this be the problem?
One last question: Could a firewall on my computer possibly be the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Open the file using QuickTime Player 7.6 and then open the Movie Inspector window.
It will tell you what codecs are used or show the video track "type". My guess is that your file contains a Flash video track which will not play in QuickTime higher than 7.3.

IPod Nano 5th generation and iTunes library

Any way to get songs on my iPod Nano 5th generation into my iTunes library? Sync doesn't work.
Lost a lot of my iTunes library recently due to a sync mistake. (I know, I'm an idiot.) Much/most of the same music is still on my iPod Nano. But something tells me Apple doesn't want me to get it back into my library so I have to buy it all over again...? Would a tech at Apple store be able to do something for me?
Not optimistic.

Hello lilooloool,
To get music off your iPod nano, you can transfer anything that was purchased from the iTunes Store. You can also just download any purchased songs from the iTunes Store as well without having to sync. Take a look at the article below for steps on how to do either option.

Howdy Lumagofe,
I was thinking that you may need to reset the iPod Nano, outlined here How to reset iPod http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1320.
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.
If that doesn't quite get the iPod going again, then it will need to be restored. Use this article to help with that Restoring iPod to factory settings http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1339.
All the very best,

IPod Click Wheel games compatible with ipod nano 5th Generation

I've found the iPod Click Wheel Games by clicking the triangle that appears next to the "App Store" tab and clicking the third option, "iPod Click Wheel Games." But when I look at the details of any of the games it says they are compatible with:
"This game is compatible with iPod nano (3rd and 4th generation), iPod classic, and iPod (5th generation) only. It cannot be played on your computer, nor is it compatible with other iPod models or iPhone."
Does this mean that I cannot use them on my iPod nano 5th generation? or is the iPod nano being referred to as "iPod (5th generation)"
I guess it just seems silly that a game is only compatible with older versions or that the newest iPod nano can NOT operate older games.
Can anyone explain this? or has anyone tried to download one of these iPod Click Wheel Games and found that it actually Does work for an iPod nano 5th generation?

Can anyone explain this?
I can't but Apple should be able too - U.S. iPod and Mac technical support: 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273)

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?

Have ipod nano 5th generation..will not sync dognostics in itunes says no ipod touch found...its a nano pass all other test

i have a ipod nano 5th generation. use to work fine now will not sync. have done the 5rs several times all that got me was no songs on my ipod at all. have latest version of itunes. when run diognostics test on itunes pass all but says no ipod touch found. whay is it saying no touch when its a nano? I will never purchase another ipod only worked until the warnety ended.

Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
Have a nice day!

My iPod nano 5th generation is not recognized by iTunes. I did update, but still, it won't work. I don't want to uninstall the iTunes cos I don't want to lose my music and audio books. What to do? It started after I updated iTunes.

iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes

HT4235 iPod nano 6th generation, syncing with audiobooks does not work now, had been working. Sync test says: No iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad found. Connectivity test OK, no physical problems, iTunes shows the iPod. Any clues what to do?

Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

Ipod nano 5th gen - works fine when plugged in either to wall or computer and appears to be fully charged but as soon as it is unplugged screen goes blank and will not start - is the battery shot?

Yes, your battery is likely toast and in need of replacement. Not much else for troubleshooting here. Sorry.
