iPod help??

[lizziegrace]

I have an old iPod Nano that belonged to Lelapin. I just added a couple songs to it and now it's stuck with a song on the display. How can I "reboot" this thing??

Help...

1. Buy a non-Apple product!

:P

Or try this:
Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)

Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 8 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.

The Menu/Select reset has worked in the past. No go this time. Bleh.

How've you been??

4. You can reboot it in safe mode.

There are some instructions in the tubes. There are some forums with instructions on how to do this. Madrone googled it for me and found a site that had very detailed instructions.

5. if all fails

let battery run out, and it will reset itself.

6. Thanks.

I assume I'll lose all the music that's on it, right?

Small price to pay since I use it all the time. Lelapin got it for HS graduation in 2005. Surprised it's still going.

8. Hold the middle button and the menu button down at the same time.

11. Weird. Then I a,m not sure what to suggest. That always did the trick for me.

12. Used to for me too

I was wrong, it's an iPod Mini. It's over 3 years old and I'm wondering if maybe it isn't just shot.
