Hey guys, I plugged my nano into the port on my comp. and then hooked the other end to the nano in the effort to charge it up. It has a flashing red circle with a line through it on the front that is flashing and says do not disconnect. and the battery life indicator has a lighting bolt through it but is not flashing.. it has been doin ghtis for a about 10 mins. I never saw the screen that says "charging" ANy one have any idea what is going on?



Many thanks

you should immediately return it and shutdown your pc

gee i wonder if apple has any support pages with oddly similar questions and responses to those oddly similar questions on their website?

too bad there's no way to find out.

uhm

is itunes open? if it is look in the left pane, you'll see your nano, whatever you named it

its charging, thats why the battery has the lightning bolt through it

but its telling you not to disconnect without ejecting the nano from itunes first

no itunes isnt open on my computer yet because I havent installed it yet. I have been getting my songs from a friend and i havent needed itunes yet on my comp. Will it charge without itunes being installed?

I'm pretty sure this is all explained in the little book that came with your Nano.

aiight...we're straight now, preshiate it wood foot

just let it fully charge and the unplug it later. unless you're actively updating your ipod, it's not actually going to fuck it up when you remove it. if the screen never changes, just unplug it when it's been an hour or two. That happens sometimes when you completely run down the batteries then charge it after a day or two.

Yea thats what I thought.... Im not transferring anything so I didnt thik it would hurt anything. Preshiate it

Why are so many people afraid of iTunes? I've never had a problem with it.

11/30/2005 3:04:59 PM

because iTunes steals babies away in the night and poisons the town wells and eats weird food.

i would try and download itunes if you want an easy way of importing songs to your nano and disconnecting it

and preshiate it? can't you spell? its appreciate

did you even think about reading the manual that came with the nano? It says to install itunes before you plug that thing in, and if you use some logic, maybe you can determine that the bolt looking like thing where the battery meter is says that it's charging. How the hell did you get into college?
