Nano 6g volume limit

I'm sorry for posting in your thread, but I am unable to start a new topic?
All I want to know is how I can stop syncing from uploading videos from my iTunes?

Sorry, no way around the EU volume limit.

Such low level of volume irritates me too!!! Apple *****!
I've bought my new iPod today and I'm very upset with it((

So iPods sold in Russia have to conform to European Union regulations?

Unfortunately, yes(( I don't know, why..
I've opened ipod file system and detected there IpodSettings.xml, which contains the line "VolumeLimit<216>VolumeLimit". What does it mean? Do US iPods have this line/letters?

APPLE WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM... I LIVE IN AUSTRALIA, NOT ANYWHERE IN EU, YET I HAVE A VOLUME LIMIT ON MY IPOD...

That has nothing to do with the EU volume limit, that is part of the ability of the user to set a volume limit on their iPod. Have you read the manual?

How do you know you have the EU volume limit on your iPod?

And Apple is not here so you would have to shout much, much louder for them to hear you:

I don't know specifically that i have an 'EU' volume limit on my ipod...

I do however have some volume limit on my ipod, that is NOT user definable.

Thanks for your helpful input though, much appreciated.

The "volume limit" may be the amp itself, that you are pushing it as high as it will go. Perhaps an ear exam is in order.

Which iPhone do you have? I'm not sure that smartphones are even covered by the volume cap, or if they are it is a recent thing. iPods have been subject to this EU regulation for some time. I agree you should be able to choose, you have the right to end up with diminished hearing capacity like all of us not subject to the EU cap.

I am posting for the first time, and hope I am not teaching anyone to suck eggs, but the solution to this problem that I use is to increase the volume level of the song as you can't change the settings on the Ipod. Do this:

Open Itunes, don't connect your Ipod.
Highlight the song(s)you want louder
Open File on the toolbar
Select Get Info
Select Options
Move the volume adjustment slider, it's normally set to 50%, to a higher level. Experiment till you get the level you need.
Click OK
Connect and Sync your Ipod.

This works for me and if you need it any louder after doing this you should get a hearing check.

This won't overcome the EU volume limit, which is set at, I believe, 100 db. It will give you a custom "sound check" so that if you have some older recordings that were recorded at a low level, say 80 db, you can then do what you did and raise it to 100 db.

But you can't raise it past 100 db.

I can't comment on the actual db limits and don't understand what a "custom sound check" is but I do know that if you use the method I posted your music will be very loud. It also works on old and new tracks so I don't understand the point you are making about older recordings. As I also said, if you need it louder than this get your hearing checked or make an appointment at the hearing clinic as you will soon need treatment.

Seriously, this does work and I would imagine that for most people this all the volume increase they will need.
