Q: iPod Nano will not sync nor send workouts to the Nike  portal

I have an iPod Nano, and up to a week or two ago when Nike changed their entire portal (which I'm already livid about because "if it ain't broke, don't fix it") my iPod Nano's workout no longer sync nor send to the Nike+ portal at all.

 

I've received continuous error messages and they've yet to fix it.  However, they haven't run short of releasing new products even though the existing ones are glitching out.

 

Any/all help would be appreciated, thank you.

    The Nike+ web site was overhauled a few months ago.  I like the old version better also...

     

    Since the overhaul, when I sync my iPod nano and it has new workout data, I get an error message.  I my case, clicking OK button on error message allows the sync to continue, and iTunes does send my new workout data to Nike+ (despite what the error message says about not being able to connect to Nike+).  I get the usual confirmation message.

     

    In your case, does Nike+ receive your new workout data?

    You're right in that it was sending the runs to Nike despite the error messages, and that was true about two weeks ago, but that's no longer the case unfortunately.  I have two recent runs that will not send to the Nike+ portal, which in my worst case, I can input manually.  However, I don't want to think that my Nano is obsolete because running was my main motivation for buying it.

     

    thanks for your feedback Kenichi, I appreciate it!

    Nike+ has my workout data from as recently as two days ago.  I'll have a run to sync later today.

     

    So, you get the error message, and click OK.  What happens next?

     

    If you have not, try quitting iTunes, re-launching, and connecting your iPod.  If your computer has been running for a while without a full restart, try doing that too.

    FYI - I was able to send new workout data to Nike+ after my run yesterday.  I still get the same error message, but after clicking OK to it, iTunes continues to sync iPod and new workout data is sent to Nike+.  One additional difference with overhauled Nike+ web site is that new workout data does not appear immediately, if I Visit right after syncing.  It seems to take a few minutes for new data to process and become visible on web site.
