When you try to sync offline Apple Music tracks to a nano or shuffle, you're met with this rather disappointing message: "Apple Music songs cannot be copied to an i Pod." You'll have to rely on your purchased music for those devices, instead.
It's probably a record label requirement: In theory, you could sync an i Pod shuffle or nano up with Apple Music tracks, then cancel your Apple Music subscription and continue rocking out to those "copied" tracks forever.
But any time it does release an i Pod software update, you should install it.
These software updates include bug fixes, support for new features and the latest versions of mac OS and Windows, and other improvements. You can update i OS devices like the i Phone or i Pad wirelessly over the Internet. The i Pod operating system can only be updated using i Tunes.
Resetting your i Pod nano is pretty simple and takes just a few seconds. This is the little switch at the top of the i Pod nano that can "lock" the i Pod's buttons.
When you lock the nano, it won't respond to clicks, which makes it appear to be frozen.
That said, however, it is always important to do a backup of all the data on the device before upgrading.Apple doesn't release updates to the operating system that powers the i Pod as often as it does for the i Phone.That makes sense; fewer i Pods are sold these days and new models come out less frequently, so there are fewer changes to make.You'll know that the hold button is on if you see a little orange area near the switch and a lock icon on the screen.If you see either of these indicators, move the switch back and see if this fixes the problem.I am going to update my i Pod to the newest software and was wondering if this will delete the files?Most of my songs are from my old computer which I now longer have, so I no longer have the songs in i Tunes.
