"Your Registration Session Timed-Out" ???

I have had the exact same problem and after talking to a few Apple Care reps I finally got a product specialist who solved my problem by simply having me set my date and time and time-zone on my clock correctly. But PLEASE NOTE: I am a Mac user, not windows, so I don't know if this will help you or not, but it's worth a try. Hope it helps.

I have the exact same problem, and the only thing I can do is tranfer music. Everytime I click on never register, or continue nothing happens. help help help

My new Nano has the same issue. Can't get past the registration timeout screen, even though you can copy music to it no problem, you just can't see it.

Windows 2000

my ipod also says that cant be disconected because some files are being used for another aplication.....
and cant pass that screen of timed out session.

can someone please help help help!!!!!!

have you guys tried a complete reinstallation of itunes?
From the control panel, is you're using windows, get rid off itunes and quicktime. get into the program files folder and delete quicktime folder, then in C:\windows\system32\ search for quicktime file and delete it.
Make sure the option "show all hidden files and folders" is enabled, under Tools-Folder Options-View tab. Visit Documents and Settings in Local Disk C, under your username or owner, sometime administrator, locate the application data folder and delete "apple computer folder". Do the same under Local Settings. Empty the TEMP folder and the Internet Temporary Folder. Remember to empty the Recycle bin.
Restart you computer (can use MSCONFIG if you're comfortable with that see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538).

Lastly, from the apple website get a fresh and clean download. Agree with all the default settings.

Hope this may help.

Additional notes, try your ipod with another computer. Make sure your computer meets the requirements that appear on the box that came with your ipod.

Hi

I had the EXACT same problem as many of you BUT i could not update my ipod (my play lists didn't drop down)

So the apple guy plugged my nano into the mac (i'm a PC user) and it was able to show. he then clicked on the REGISTER NEVER button for me (whenever i clicked it, i got the error) and when i went home, connected to my itunes, it worked.

I think that the file on the nano that asks for registration must've been fu*ked up or smtg but now it works fine
