Help, my iPod Nano just stopped working

Help I've had my iPod nano 7th generation for about 6 months now.  It's always worked fine until one day after charging it, it will no longer turn on.  It does get hot when I try to charge it or reboot it (reboot using the home and on/off button together).  Can anyone please help?

Hi AliPe!
I have a website that I believe will help you troubleshoot this issue. The website is an iPod troubleshooting assistant, and it can be found right here:
Apple - Support - iPod nano - iTunes Troubleshooting Assistant
http://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano/assistant/itunes/
Just follow the troubleshooting steps suggested by that website and you should be on the right track. Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

    Did the battery run out of power?  If not, try doing a Reset to "reboot" the iPod

    If you do not find a solution in the iPod nano (6th generation) - User Guide, suggest that you call AppleCare if still under warranty or take a trip to your local Apple Store or AASP.

    My ipod classis just stopped working.  It is still under warranty and I need to know where the warranty information is so I can get it fixed or replaced?

    If you have tried all of the suggestions mentioned under the appropriate section in this Apple support document, you may need to have your iPod serviced or replaced either by Apple or a third party service. 
    iPod won't turn on
    If the iPod is still under Apple's 1 year warranty against manufacturing defects, Apple may swap it out for you at no cost if they don't conclude the issue to be the result of abuse or accidental damage.  If you have an Apple Store nearby schedule an appointment with them and show them what you are experiencing.

  • Nano just stopped working???

    My ipod has just stopped working. I was listening to it this morning and there was more than enough charge in it. I go to turn it on now and nothing, checked to make sure it was not locked and still nothing. Connected it up to the computer and it doesn't even see it as and external device - it's just dead. I only purchased this ipod less than 60 days ago. I did have a weird thing happen about 2 weeks ago as well.......the music stopped and all the pictures were scrambled lines all the graphics on the ipod were gone. I did manage to reset and re sync with my computer that time, but I'm thinking maybe I got a lemon? How do I go about getting this issue resolved? Looking forward to anyones suggestions. BTW I did try to take it back to Walmart where I purchased it and they won't take it back after 10 days what a bunch of crap.

    Just got this from some else's question about a dead ipod and this worked...Thanks glad I visited the site.
    You may need to reset it. So first thing to try is...
    Put the hold switch to the OFF/White position. Now toggle it ON/orange then back off again. Then press and hold both the MENU and center buttons on the iPod and hold them for a good 15 seconds or so. Your iPod should reboot starting with the Apple Logo screen.
    If it doesn't work the first time, give it a second or third go. Sometimes it takes a few/several tries.
    See this thread as an example of what I mean by needing to try it many times...

    What do you mean it is not working?  Does it power on?  Is it recognized in iTunes?  Need a bit more detail in order to assist you here.
