Oh My Pod - My Ipod Video Frozen Up!

This Ipod Video keeps frozen up lately. This is a 2 years old Ipod, it is not heavily used. I wonder what happens to it. I’m a little upset that the warranty has expired and I don’t have the extended coverage on it.

After Poking around, I found that this is a common problem among the Ipod owners. Have to do a reset
to the Ipod to bring it back from frozen.

The reset varies depend on the Ipod Model:

Here is the steps to bring your Ipod back from frozen:

1) Make sure the “Hold Switch” is off.

2) Hold the “Menu” and “Select” buttons at the same time for about 6 ~ 10 seconds. If it doesn’t work the first time, you may have to repeat the process.

3) For older model, hold the “Menu” and “Play” button
instead.

While you’re holding the buttons, be sure not touching other part of the click wheel.

If it’s did not work after you follow the steps above, connect your Ipod to a stable power source,
to the power adapter or to the computer (it has to be on).

Lastly, you may want to check for the latest software
for the Ipod. Get the latest version of the iTune; use the iTunes to check for updates for the Ipod software.
