ipod nano 1.2 version how upgrade to higher version?

I recently received an ipod nano 1.2 version. iTunes purchased songs load into my ipod but do not play because they need a 1.3 version or higher to play M4P ACC (Protected) songs. How do I update the Ipod Nano application that I have to a higher version (1.3)?

iopd nano 1.2, Windows XP

In a link to compatible song formats, it says you need version 1.3 or later to play purchased songs that have an AAC format (protected). We are new to this, so that may be for a different type of iPod than the nano...but that is the problem we have. The songs we have purchased from itunes all show the "protected" type and we cannot convert them to a format that will play on our nano. Any suggestions?

That software is for the first and second generation regular iPods. All other iPod models come with the necessary firmware to play AAC files. You should be able to sync the purchased music to your iPod; if you can't, try the instructions in this article.
