AIFF

A song encoded using Apple Lossless format has full CD-quality sound, but takes up

only about half the amount of space as a song encoded using AIFF or WAV format. The

same song encoded in AAC or MP3 format takes up even less space. When you import

music from a CD using iTunes, it is converted to AAC format by default.

Using iTunes for Windows, you can convert nonprotected WMA files to AAC or MP3

format. This can be useful if you have a library of music encoded in WMA format.

iPod nano does not support WMA, MPEG Layer 1, MPEG Layer 2 audio files, or

audible.com format 1.

If you have a song in iTunes that isn’t supported by iPod nano, you can convert it to a

format iPod nano supports. For more information, see iTunes and Music Store Help.

If you accidentally set iPod nano to use a language you don’t understand

You can reset the language.

1

Press and hold Menu until the main menu appears.

2

Choose the fifth menu item (Settings).

3

Choose the last menu item (Reset All Settings).

4

Choose the second menu item (Reset) and select a language.

Other iPod nano settings, such as song repeat, are also reset.

Note:

If you added or removed items from the iPod nano main menu (see “Adding or

Removing Items From the Main Menu” on page 8), the Settings menu item might be in

a different place. If you can’t find the Reset All Settings menu item, you can restore your

iPod nano to its original state and choose a language you understand. See “Updating

and Restoring iPod Software” on page 50.

If you connect iPod nano to a camera connector and nothing happens

You must first import photos from your camera to your computer and then download

the photos to iPod nano. You can’t connect a camera directly to iPod nano to download

photos.

Some other third-party accessories cannot connect directly to iPod nano. See

www.apple.com/support/ipod for more information.

If you want to double-check the system requirements

To use iPod nano, you must have:

Â

One of the following computer configurations:

Â

A Macintosh with USB port (USB 2.0 recommended)

Â

A Windows PC with USB port or a USB card installed (USB 2.0 recommended)
