Bluetooth is not able to find devices but, can be found. I can pair it from my Blackberry Torch but, it's intermittent. I've tried with other devices too, and have found no luck - I tried pairing it with my car stereo which is also Bluetooth enabled. Am I the only person having trouble with their iPod's Bluetooth? Thanks in advance.
iPod nano
The Nano will only pair to A2DP stereo music devices, like headphones, speakers, etc. and to low power draw devices such as heart rate monitors, Nike fuel. If your car has HandsFree BT capability the Nano will not work with that, your car stereo must have the A2DP profile.
Now that I was given a Nano 7th generation because my Mini has the white screen of death ( although still works otherwise, I just can't see anything on the screen), I find the Nano 7th won't connect ot my 2012 Hyundai Elantra car radio like the Mini would. I bought a 30 pin adapter and also tried my old 12vt charger and nothing works. I tried my Bluetooth pairing. Can't connect. Lame. Is there ever going to be any way for me to connect this Nano to enable it to play from my new car's speakers.?
Why don't you return it and get an iPod Classic?
@ Konaq - I'm still having the same issues whereby the Bluetooth will not find ANY supported devices. I had to manually connect from the device to the Nano itself.....and it STILL wouldn't work. 7th generation Nano is a dud.
I've connected mine to a jambox, UE headphones, Motorola headphones and never had an issue with any of them.
Does your car stereo and your Torch support the A2DP Bluetooth profile? Because the Nano only supports A2DP and low power (think heart monitor) devices. It has no other profiles.
Well, it was a gift and a Classic costs another $100. I'll have to think about that. Not happy though. You'd think a new device and new car would be compatible. Somewhre else I read the Nano 7th is geared to sportspersons. I hgess they didn't think sortspersons would then get in their car and drive home wanting to listen to music.
My 7th Gen iPod Nano works great with my jambox. I am thinking about getting the Jaybird Bluetooth Earbuds (JF3MB) for use at the gym.
My question is will it work with this device? I can't seem to find any specs regarding A2DP.
Thoughts?
Just found the info in an online manual and it looks like it supports: Headset, handsfree, A2DP, and AVRCP so I should be good, correct?
Correct.
I'm having trouble as well. I am able to pair to my Macbook Pro but will not connect (though my magic mouse connects just fine) as well as with my Hyundai Sonata (phone, iPad, etc will all connect without issue). Is there a bug in the OS? Is the only resolution to restore the iPod Nano?
I'm having the same problem. I'm even using the cord supplied by Hyundai. they make sound it like a piece of cake in the manual. But when I plug in my 7th Gen Nano, the USB symbol shows on the car display, but then an error message on screen pops up and says 'no media detected'. It's so frustrating. I thought a 2014 vehicle would be on the ball. I can't even stream via Bluetooth. I'm so ******.
Do you have another device that it is already linked to? I originally paired my Nano to my speakers but when I tried to link them
again, the Nano could not find the device any longer. I chose to forget the device and start all over again but then it could not find the device at all. I realized that the speakers are also paired to my iPad which I turn off but I rarely power it down completely. With iPad completely off, I tried pairing the Nano and the speakers. Voila, it worked! Again, if it's also linked to another device, turn it off and try pairing them.
