Hello, Apple Service Rep here.
Here is the features guide for reference: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/ipod_nano_3rd_gen_features_guide.pdf
Now there is no actual manual for it online. Just a features guide. You could of course refer to the 2nd gen and 4th gen manuals.
If you are still hesitant, have a look: http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipodnano3rdgeneration

I get so confused over iPod generations - here is a 4th generation Nano user guide - the other user guides are also on Apple's website if you happen to have a 2nd or 3rd Gen:

buy a refurbished one from apple.com

Hi there dbj185,

If you go to the Apple website you can find the manuals for all their equipment. Here's the link for their ipod nanos:

http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipodnano

On Pg6 of the 2nd Gen Nano manual there is a list it's functions. Second one down is how to turn it off which is 'Press and hold Play/Pause'.

All the best

Hello,
If you have the Nano with the smaller screen measuring 1" x 1.25" and got it 3 years ago, you most likely have the 2nd generation. Apple doesn't really have cases on their site for the older nano. I have the same one and purchased my case at Target. They have a good selection of 3rd party (non-Apple branded) cases. You can also check an Apple store if you have one close by.
Hope this was helpful.
Have a great day

I have had exactly the same problem having bought a JBL Radial Micro for my partner for Xmas for use with the Ipod Nano, i contacted JBL via their website and was advised to contact Harmen on 01707278100. I was advised that the new ipod nano (chromatic) would not charge on the JBL radial micro. They stated that this was due to Apple changing the charging pin in the new nano. I have since bought a JBL Stage III. I contacted Harmen before buying this and was advised that the Stage II would not work. Hope that this is of use.

Put it on autosync or tick all the box's songs you want and manually press sync button on the right bottom corner.
Make sure ur ipod is plugged in

According to appel this is a 2nd gen ipod with 4gb memory
