iPod Used nano

[Troyte83]

i just got a used 2gig ipod nano from my brother and i went to put my songs on it and it says that over 1.5gigs is already taken up but i already checked and there is nothing on it, does anyone know what the problem might be?

Just restore it.

Could be that there has been space reserved for data and not music.

Check in iTunes on the iPod screen.

Enable disk use, and open it up in the Finder and see if there are any files stored on the drive. If anything, you may as well just restore it.

i tried restoring it and it was unable to work is it possible to have a virus through one of the songs

i think your brother screwed you 😛 If you can't restore it take it to apple.

Yea, I've never heard of something like that before. If even after restoring you're having problems, take it over to Apple; see what they say. Might get lucky and maybe it's something they can fix for you right there, nice and easy.

Virus on a song? - No, as everyone else said maybe a problem with the ipod, take it into apple yuo may get lucky

A corrupted file isn't a virus...
