NaNO 2G Skips music Mp3 Sometimes Stops

I had the same/similar problem. I don't have any copy protected music on my Nano and all of my music is in AAC so I'm still not too sure what was happening.

Basically my nano would display the title track then immediately skip to the next track without playing any of them. It kept doing this until it decided to shut itself off automatically.

The next time I started it up, it ran fine. I shut it down and let it be for a few hours only to find the next time I started it up, it was doing the same thing.

I decided to restore the factory settings through iTunes and had to put all of my music back on my pod. Not cool.

I also downloaded an update for the nano and installed it when I restored the settings. So far so good. Hopefully that doesn't happen again. Especially when I'm on the ice or on the hill.

In a mater in fact it could be the mp3 the mp3 was copy right protected so it skips and doesn?t let you listen to them.

nice...I record my own music...and my NEW RCA AND the old SANSA ones skip...I gave myself permission to play the songs I wrote..I hope that's alright?
