Did you try Resetting your iPod. Hold down the MENU and SELECT (centre) buttons for five or ten seconds until you see the Apple logo appear then the menu button to go to the normal display:
iPod isn't responding it appears to be frozen

My ipod froze so I restarted it. It loaded the apps but no music and did not delete old apps. Help!
First try a Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. -
My ipod froze so I restarted it, but then it happened again, so I restarted it again, and it was fine but then it ran out of battery. Now when I plug it into the charger it, the Apple sign comes up for 5 seconds then disappears, it doesn't turn on or come up with the charging sign. Is it not going to work again, or is ther something I can do? Please help.
I have the same problem, and my Ipod turned off (when I held the home and power button)
but then when I held down the home button (after turned off) nothing happened, the screen is still black.
Do you know what I should maybe do?
Thanks is advance -

I purchased a movie from those online "movies to ipod" sites (buyimovies.com) and put it on my 80g video ipod. the movie worked fine as i would watch about a half hour each night before bed. one night, the screen went dark and the ipod froze. i tried rebooting the ipod but it would not let me. i had to let the battery drain before i could use my ipod again. like an idiot, i tried it again with the same result. i have not purchased an Itunes movie yet nor do i have any other video files on my ipod. do you think there is something wrong with my ipod or do you think it was the video file. i just find it weird how one day it just stopped working.
any suggestionsTry playing the movie in Quicktime and see if it doesn't play there too. This site seems to be half-dead right now. I wonder what they are encoding with, what codec and where they get the license?

IPod Froze, but now it won't sync
my iPod froze so i had to reset it. This cleared all the songs so i went to put them all back on but nothing happens.
Please help,
Thanks.Hello Mr. Bump,
By rest do you mean pressing and holding the Center and Menu buttons together until the Apple log appears? If so, then after you did this you say your music disappeared? Maybe try resetting the unit one more time.
If no luck, your iPod may be corrupt. I would recommend completely restoring the iPod via iTunes and starting from scratch in regards to adding all your music and files back to it.
Here are instructions on how to restore your iPod. Hope it helps.

If I am mistaken on any of these assumptions, let me know. Would love to help.

HT1483 Ipod froze. How to get over the problem and bring it back?
Ipod froze and not responding. How to get over this problem and bring back the Ipod ?
Go to the menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience. -

My ipod froze in the middle of a music quiz the game?
my ipod froze tah tah
Try a hard reset. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Don't be afraid to try this more than once.

My Ipod froze and a power symbol came on the screen and I couldn't get out if it. I then connected my Ipod to my MacBook and reset the Ipad to the factory settng. Now I can't connect to the intranet as the WiFi icon in the settings screen appears washed out and does not allow me to access my WiFi.
Any suggestions.DIM/GRAY
See:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

30g vid ipod froze, now showing multiple icons and unable to restart
today while mowing the lawn (which i listen to music doing) my ipod froze. i dropped it on the grass earlier, and there wasn't any dirt on it but i got worried I restart it with menu+select and then the ipod/support sad face pops up. so i finish mowing the lawn, go inside and plug my ipod into my computer naturally to see if it pops up. Well, my ipod restarts itself, the support icon shows up again, and then the charging icon pops up, replacing the sadface ipod. The charging battery logo will blink a couple of times and after a minute or so it restarts again, sadface, charge, and goes the process again! The funny thing is, that there was plenty of battery life when i was listening to it!! over half for sure. I've only had my ipod for 3 months and it has a good case. only been dropped twice. i'm very upset with this and i'd appreciate some help . maybe it needs some charging but i realy need some advice.
thanks
-PJTallsTry keeping it plugged into your computer for awhile, I had a similar problem and it just took time to resolve. If all else fails, restore your ipod.

HELP WHAT DO I DO!
Thank You for the advice of holding the middle button and the menu button at the same time. My new classic 80gb Ipod froze today and I didn't know what to do. I am glad the info is out here to find.
I have an older nano Ipod and I have not had any problem, except not much space, as I am with the new Ipod. Does anyone else notice that with their newer Ipod's?
