Hi all. I am having trouble with my 7th gen ipod nano. After about an hour or so of listening to music, the device will pause on its on. I have to fully charge it again to solve the issue. If I do not fully charge it, I have to press and hold the ear buds into the jack to fix the problem. Oh and I am not using the original head phones. There seems to be a shortage of some sort. Please help.

Hey Shamika,
If you are having an issue with your iPod nano stopping play of music after one hour and being unable to resume normally, I would suggest that you first attemtp to reset the iPod. See this article for directions -
Reset your iPod - Apple Support
Specifically -
7th generation: Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo should appear after a few seconds, then the Home screen should appear.
If the issue is not resolved, you may need to restore your iPod to factory settings. Use the steps in this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,
