Mini ipod menu and play buttons are not working

My ipod menu button has not worked now for a few months. I can't get back to my main playlist and choose certain things, I just have to listen to the all the songs. Now the play button is not working either, its working to turn on-play-pause, but not to turn it off. So it stays on till the battery goes dead. Help Please-anything!!

How to reset the iPod if it appears frozen or doesn't respond.
It may take quite a few attempts and is best done connected to power.
If this doesn't work, try restoring the iPod to factory settings.
However, it seems as if it may be a hardware problem and need service.

  • The forward, back, refresh, and stop buttons are not working. Even after installing the latest version. Anyone else having this issue?

    The forward, back, refresh, and stop buttons are not working. Even after installing the latest Firefox update. Also my home page stopped loading upon startup even tho I have it setup to do so. Anyone else experiencing these issues? This is my second request for help and of course, Firefox on-line support is always closed.

  • HT1430 iPhone 4s keypad the "o" and return button are not working - solutions?

    iPhone 4s keypad, the "o" and the return button are not working. Upgraded the software, now the "o" works in the verticle position only, and the return works in the horizontal position only. Help!

    Hi, VRS77. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would start with closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device.  If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included a screenshot on how to process an application close.  Test the results after processing these steps.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    If the issue persists, here are a couple addition troubleshooting steps I could recommend.

    I know there are some problems with Question Slides, but I'm using them as timesavers. Building question slides yourself takes a lot more time. When I started using them, I had to find the right settings to get the results I wanted, but now mostly I do not have that much problems anymore (if the internet connection is not failing).
    What are your Quiz settings: can the user have more than one attempt, do you allow Backward movement, Review possibility etc? Is the uploading to a LMS (which one), what were the Manifest settings?

  • My ipod touch fourth generation keyboard and unlock button are not working

    my ipod touch fourth generation was working at one moment and then when i went to unlock the screen and type in the passcode it would not let me swype the unlock button and when i turned it off and back on again and the passcode section popped up it would only let me type the 1, 2, and 3 buttons and now it is not letting me type at all. What do i need to do? The screen is also cracked but when i cracked the screen i was still able to see what i was doing and still able to use the ipod but this was before the keyboard and unlock button stopped working, I dont know if the screen being cracked would have anything to do with the keyboard and unlock button not working. PLEASE HELP ME

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. Could be the crack progressed to the point thtt portions of the screen no longer respond to touch

  • My sleep and volume button are not working. Help please!!!

    I tried restoring my Ipod and it doesn't work. It worked once then i couldn't do it again. Please help.

    If you only restored from backup, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.  If you then still have the problem it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    There is no need to install the Torbutton extension in case of problems with lost bookmarks.
    You can skip that step if it doesn't apply (you do not have Torbutton in the first place).
    You can uninstall that extension via Tools > Add-ons > Extensions

  • Tab and control buttons do not work in Firefox (they work in other browsers) AND I switched to a new keyboard.

    The tab and control buttons are not working the Firefox browser (My browser is up-to-date). The buttons work in IE and Chrome, however, before I realized that, I even switched out my keyboard to a brand new one hoping it would solve the issue.

    Thank you--there were a few random extensions I had not added (spyware, maybe?). Once I removed those the issue was fixed!

  • Am using ipad air, my question is under accessibility mute and unmute button is not working.

    pls help me am using ipad air, under accesibility the mute and unmute button are not working.

    Do you mean that you have Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to 'Mute', and you have the switch on the right-hand side of your iPad, above the volume control, 'on' ? WIth that 'on' notification sounds should be muted (e.g. email notifications, game sounds etc), but the you should still be able to hear the Videos and Music apps and with headphones. Is that not happening, and if not you've tried toggling the switch on the side of your iPad on/off ?

  • Menu and play buttons unresponsive

    The menu and play buttons on the clickwheel are unresponsive, the interface is otherwise fine.  I cannot turn the ipod off or return to menus after selecting something.  I have already tried updating and restoring the ipod, I don't know what else to do.

    Contact apple with this problem. Here is the link.

  • My Ipod nano 6Th sometimes shuts down when I connect the phones, sometimes it not shuts down, but the volume and standby buttons do not work.

    My Ipod nano 6Th sometimes shuts down when I connect the phones, sometimes it not shuts down, but the volume and standby buttons do not work. If I not connect the phones everything works fine. But with the phones connected it goes crazy. I alredy reset, restore and nothing. If I reset and let the phones connect the up and down volumes buttons start to work. But the power/stand by button don´t. I need to disconect the phones to the power/stand by button starts  to works. Anyone already have simmilar problem?

    A windows error message appears saying iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to shut down.
    let's get a crash log from itunes, and send it to the Apple engineers for a look.
    Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
    drwtsn32 -i
    And hit return.
    This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
    prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
    Generate the crash, collect the crash log, and and send it as an attachment to this email address.
    in the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
    - A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
    - The username you are using in the thread
    - The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
    - the version of Windows you are using (mention service packs)
    - A concise description of the issue you are seeing
    - The exact text of the error message you are seeing

  • All iPad buttons are not working even after resetting it (hard, soft and via iTunes).

    All iPad 2 buttons are not working even after I resetting it. I tried both of the hard and soft reset, and even resetting my iPad via iTunes. 
    The volume buttons work after I tried this method : "hold iPad in landscape mode. Push the home button while rotating it to Portrait mode, release it."

    I have the same issue, nothing I did fixed the problem, I would suggest if you can visit apple store and give us your feedback with them.
    for me I can't go to apple store because I don't have any store near me, I will have to wait for 2 months to travel!
