IPod is frozen........... what do i do?

My iPod is frozen on the screen it has a charged battery sign and the bar for how long the song lasts at the bottom.

Do the 5 R's, and make sure the hold switch is not on.

  • Ok...My Ipod is frozen, what next???

    My Ipod is frozen. I've tried resetting it. I've tried downloading the updater. I've hooked up to both my computer and USB adapter. I'm out of answers. I only have questions. This Ipod is not that old. It's a 20gb with only 1600 songs on it. What trips me out is that my mini NEVEr gave me any problems.
    So...what do I do now?

    See Here...
    Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
    Try this First... You will not lose any Data...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    If that does not work... try letting the battery fully drain.
    Then Charge for an Hour and try the Reset again.

  • Yo my ipod is frozen, what can I do?

    Yo how can I fix my frozen ipod?

    Try resetting your device by holding down both the home and lock buttons for ~10 seconds or until the device restarts, ignoring the power slider.

  • My ipod is frozen what can i do? 4gb nano

    nothing will work,have tried all the off on scenarios etc.is there anything else other than restoring?

    Hi Terrymcmullan,
    I know this may sound simple, but have you tried resetting your iPod? Follow the steps, to ensure that you're doing the resetting step properly:
    First, toggle your iPod's "Hold" switch back and forth a couple of times (leave it on the white side of the switch, which is the Off position).
    Then, press and hold the Menu and Select (center) buttons together for about 10 seconds.
    You might need to try this quite a few times. Try connecting your iPod to a power source for more effect.
    Also, you could try rapidly toggling your iPod's hold switch back and forth while connected to your computer.
    Any success after trying either of those things?

  • HT1363 my ipod was frozen but now it has an x on the screen. What can i do about that?

    my ipod was frozen, but now it has an x on the screen. What can i do about it?

    See here: iPod Displays a Red "X" Icon
    Note that the fatal red X is often a clear indication that your iPod's HD is shot and in need of replacement. You'll need to take or send your iPod in for repair either through Apple or a third party service.

    My iPod is frozen. The screen is lit. What to do?

    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.

  • Ipod Touch frozen with Apple logo & loading bar below!

    My laptop shutdown while my Ipod was updating software. It is frozen with the apple logo & the loading bar below. When I turned my laptop back on, it will not recognize my Ipod. This means I cannot even try restoring it. I have unplugged & plugged back in & tried holding the buttons on the Ipod for 10 seconds. I'm not sure what to do! Help please!

  • 30G Ipod video frozen

    I hope someone can help me my ipod has frozen it shows "Do Not Disconnect". The battery is full and the hold padlock is shown in the top left corner. I have tried a reset and nothing happens?
    Can somene tell me what I need to do?

    Ok, I am useless with the whole ipod thing, but that exact thing happened my within the first week of my new 30g. What I did was let the ipod drain its battery over night and when it was dead, I pluged it into my laptop and it worked ( i.e. wasn't frozen on the "do not disconnect" anymore), but not too well, so in itunes I restored factory settings and then had to start downloading from the beginning (not to bad for me as only a week old and everything still in library)
    Would drain it anyway and see how you go
