iPod Nano 7th Generation: Why can I only use half the storage space?

Wed, 18 Jul 2018 07:47:59 -0700

When I connect my iPod to iTunes, I have only used about 7 gig of space with music, videos and pictures. The rest is taken up by 'other' items colored in orange. Why can't I use the full capacity of this iPod and what is taking up that extra space? How can I empty that extra space?

iPod Nano 7th Generation: Touch screen not responding

Tue, 16 Jan 2018 10:18:02 -0700

My Ipod went through the washer and I think dryer. It turns on, charges, syncs with my computer, it will even play a song- just the one that was playing before it went through the wash. the only thing it wont do is respond to touch. Which means it is useless since I cannot get to the menu screen and select anything. Is there a way to fix this screen? I have already reset it through my computer.

iPod Nano 7th Generation: Why would there suddenly be no sound and no radio reception?

Thu, 30 Nov 2017 20:29:48 -0700

When I plugged in my headphones recently, I could not hear any music through them, and when I tried to access the radio, I got the message "No Radio Signal. Please plug in headphones for radio reception". I tested my headphones on my 5th generation iPod and other devices and they work normally. The battery is fully charged and the iPod seems to be working otherwise.

What is a possible cause of this, and is there any way to fix this myself?

iPod Nano 7th Generation: Headphone audio Jack works when it wants

Mon, 08 May 2017 00:26:55 -0700

My i pod nano 7th gen audio jack only works when i put some Isopropyl Alcohol on the tip of my headphone's plug then stops working after couple minutes (my guess is that the Isopropyl alcohol got dried out).I'm out of ideas for this alcoholic jack.I tried cleaning it with a q-tip with some alcohol but the problem persisted after it was thankful for the alcohol.I really like my music but this is frustrating since i got to do it every time, any suggestions to help resolve this problem?

Mon, 27 Feb 2017 08:36:29 -0700

My ipod wont stay on for more than 15 seconds. It flashes white then turns off and then immediately the apple logo shows and it turns back on! And then after approx 15 seconds the same thing happens again...its continuously turning on and off by itself. Is there anything I can do besides for replacing the iPod?

iPod Nano 7th Generation: Will it work with only 2 battery connections soldered on?

Mon, 23 May 2016 17:02:55 -0700

So basically while replacing the screen I broke the battery cable. I desoldered the flex cable and one of the solder points came off from the logic board. This is marked as 'TH', the + and - are still okay so I can solder onto them, so far I get a new battery will the iPod work with the battery only connected to 2 of the contacts?

iPod Nano 7th Generation: Digitizer possibly not working?

Mon, 27 Jan 2025 12:23:26 -0700

I bought a Nano 7th gen online and the seller claims that it was working flawlessly before, and from my observations the only issues is that while scrolling through or tapping the middle of the screen, it just forgets that my finger is there.

There's basically an imaginary horizontal line in the screen where it assumes I'm not touching it, which locks me out of certain menu items, and forbids me from scrolling with too big finger motions. Is there any chance I can solve this without replacing the digitizer?

My "sleep/wake" button is also stuck, but that's the smaller issue

iPod Nano 7th Generation: My iPod has audio noise when playing videos

Mon, 16 Dec 2024 09:36:50 -0700

I used HandBrake to convert my videos into MP4 format, which should be playable on my iPod nano 7th generation. The video imports and plays normally, but there's an issue with the left audio channel where it produces random noise.

I initially thought the problem was with the video file itself, but when I connected my iPod nano 7 to my computer via iTunes and played the video stored on the iPod's internal memory, everything played back perfectly without any noise.

Additionally, when I play music and quickly drag the progress bar, I notice a very brief noise, which is so short that it's almost unnoticeable unless you listen carefully.

The video format details are as follows: H.264, 720 x 576, 30 fps, Baseline. The audio format details are: AAC-LC, 128kbps, 48kHz.

I've checked my headphones and they are working fine. I've also tried restarting my iPod, using different format conversion software, and even importing the video using another computer, but the problem still persists. =(

Currently, my iPod hasn't suffered any severe impacts or water damage, and the battery hasn't been replaced since I bought it.

I suspect the issue might be due to battery aging, as when charging, it doesn't show the charging process animation but directly displays the fully charged state animation (although this could be by design). I can't think of any other reason for this problem. I'm hoping someone can help me resolve this issue. :)
