If its a 3g one (dock) ipod

flick the hold switch on then off

and hold the TWO MIDDLE BUTTONS (MENU AND PLAY) for about 5 seconds until an apple logo appears

if you've got the new one (20gig click) hold menu and the white button in the middle down at the same time for like 6 seconds, will reset the ipod

I'm not sure if you can do this, but take out the battery? I assume it's a lithium ion one? That how it's done with my zen anyway

na na i had to wait till the batteries ran out :) i did that but the apple site said to hold menu + play/pause for 6-10 seconds. that didnt work :S

Mine used to do that on a particular song for a while, Jigga :) Very annoying.

Take your ipod to any apple centre (in the world) it "should" still be under warranty, book it in, get them to check the serial number etc they will be able to tell you if you still have warranty.

Most probably have to get sent down to sydney for either repair or replace which takes about a week max.

after it ran outta batteries it was alright till i pulgged it into usb it froze so i did the reset thing now it comes up with a pic of a folder with an exclimation mark. THE f***.

with a pic of a folder with an exclimation mark. THE f***.

Yes its a common fault with them when that happens. Take it into any APPLE CENTRE AND GET IT FIXED ON WARRANTY.

We get them in quiet alot

OMG ffs,
ok thats stoped now the flashing stops sign with the do not discconect apears when i plug it in :S

give it to me ill fix it

When its plugged into the comp its comes up with the "Do not disconect" What the f*** is wrong with it. please explain

This happens to mine about once a month, if reseting or slamming the menu button over and over just let the battery run out.

JIGGAMAN, TAKE IT INTO AN APPLE CENTRE AND GET IT FIXED ARE YOU f***ING DUMB? :)

I f***ING KNOW YOU DUMB c***! I AM f***IGN WONDERING WHY IT HAS HAPPEND LESS THAN f***ING 24 HOURS AFTER I HAVE BAUGHT IT. f***

And if you read up. its because its a KNOWN f***ING PROBLEM WITH THEM.

So now you know, you cant fix it by yourself, so go take it to an apple centre and get it fixed.

YOu wont be able to fix it any otherway.

So why bother finding out? Apart from knowing its a known problem, needs to be taken back to get fixed/replaced
