Ipod nano 16gb

When my nano froze I had to reset it and ever since then only one speaker works in my headphones. I have bought 2 other brand new headphone sets and I still get the same problem. Only one side works.
Any suggestions?

There could be a hardware issue with the headphone jack module. may need to be swapped out. check apple's warranty first, if they can't help you it can be done by a tech savy user. there is an ipod repair guide if you want to do it yourself or have a friend help you.

Don't use the iPod...or at least buy anymore headphones... Apple is aware of problem...and have no plans to fix it. On the Apple forum, it's been brought up several times and is either ignored or deleted. A new firmware update might fix it, but who knows?

Sorry I couldn't help more...

I'd say something is wrong with your headphone jack on the ipod. I would contact the apple helpline and make them help you.

Just purchased an ipod nano...how do I turn off the external speaker? even when I plug in the headphones, the external speaker stays on

Flick the button/switch on the top of the nano on and off 6 times leaving the orange bit not showing.

Now hold down the menu button and the middle button for 15 seconds until an apple2_bing.gif icon appears. SORTED!

now the speaker turns off when you plug the headphones in plus rest assured it doesn't reset the ipod and remove your songs.

New Ipod Nano 4th Gen 16GB has went blank and will not turn on

HI there,

worst case scenario is that a circuit has broken inside. But your ipod will be under warrenty for a year from purchase.

Otherwise, leave the ipod to charge for a long time. Just leave it connected directly to the computer USB port despite not having any change in appearance. Also, don't connect it via a usb hub or through your keyboard. You will need to plug it into your computer directly.

You can also try entering DFU mode. Here is a great step by step guide to do that. http://iphonefreakz.com/beginners-guide/howto-dfu-mode/

Then restore the ipod and update the firmware. Make sure you have the latest version of itunes installed. By checking through software update.


I hope this helps,

Nathan.

Nano shows song playing but nothing happens

Make sure your headphones are working properly by testing with your computer headphone jack.

Is the headphone port on the Nano loose?

Connect the Nano to your iPod dock and see if you can head audio through the docks headphone jack.

If the headphones work, and you can get audio out of the dock headphone port, then there is a problem with your Nanos headphone jack.

Headphones not playing in iPod

This is either cause by a damaged headphone socket in the iPod or a loose connection. The only way to solve it will involve opening the iPod case and inspecting the daughter board that the headphone socket is on.
