Know some might find this sexist but need advice over ds' ipod nano.
I made a mistake when registering his ipod (used my email address instead of his) Changed it and registered his itunes with the new details but still have a major problem when we download music.
The song apears on his itunes page, it downloads onto his ipod but when we select it and try to play it the song appears for approx 1 sec and then jumps to the next song and won't play.
I am fairly technically minded and have tried everything I can think of and so has DH but nothing works. Feel v guilty as I messed it up and everyonelse's is fine.
Can anyone help??
Mums who may read this are v welcome to reply just thought this would be best place to put it.

There's only a handful of blokes on MN, so you might have more luck in a general topic, but seeing as you need advice from a Bear Grappler...

  1. Has the song actually downloaded correctly (ie is it a few MB large or just a few hundred Kb small - ie corrupted download ?

  2. You might need to try 'deregistering all computers' from authority to play iTunes purchased songs, and then re-register whichever computer you want to use

  3. an iPod can only synch with one computer (if you don't resort to third party software). Is the song possibly not playing because the synch between iPod and PC / Mac is somewhat buggered (ie. perhaps from moving your music collection to a new machine etc.)
