So I have the lovely new iPod Nano. My best friend insists is launching nano computers into my brain to turn me into an automaton at the will of Apple. I could be so lucky! Anyways, the lovely iPod is not functioning properly. It will begin a song, play anywhere from a few seconds to a minute+ , stop, and then skip to the next song. Not every song, but it consistently truncates the same songs. I have even queried the Mac Genius who purchased it for me. Yes...he is a real Mac Genius and is even head of the department at the Apple store just outside Century City in Los Angeles. He is my big brother. I restored the original options and downloaded my music again. Still doesn't work correctly. So my only option is to venture into cyberspace for the answer...... wish me luck.
