header > a { float:left; }
nav ul li {
list-style-type: none;
float: left;
margin-left: 10px;
}

3,322 PointsAre you sure you understand the media query definitions you are using? For example:
Min-width means :Rules applied for any browser width over the value defined in the query.
Max-Width means : Rules applied for any browser width below the value defined in the query.
Take a look at this link: https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/layouts/rwd-fundamentals/use-media-queries?hl=en
This might be your issue.

8,475 PointsI'm not sure if one of those answered your question, but I think what you're saying is that your nav bar isn't a solid line when you move to the larger responsive view .. at least not immediately.
Portfolio About Contact all in a line, but rather there is a break after About and Contact is underneath.
If thats right, it's in the video like that also. I believe it has to do with the width that we're setting the nav bar to. 45% when the elements are too big to fit in that % of the screen when it's at 660px
I changed it to 47% to fix it.
nav {
background: none;
float: right;
font-size: 1.25em;
margin-right: 5%;
text-align: right;
width: 47%;
}
