Oh Guten Tag.
If your Home Button works, you should be able to reset - press the Home and Main button at the same time for 15 sec. Then press the main button for 2sec to have it restart.
Do what I said earlier:
I would advice you to go to the link I sent you above: https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do and ask for an exception.
I don't promise that they'll change it but they may, mainly if the problem of the Home Button is going on since more than half a year (still within the one year warranty) and you just explain that you did not know that you could have changed it at the time and now it's completely dead.
If you really want to recover all your stuff and are living in the US, you should go to the nearest Genius bar and see what they can do.

IPod mini doesn't play ANY songs!!! Please Help

My iPod mini doesn't play any songs. It doesn't play purchased music from the iTunes Music Store, ripped CDs, or ANYTHING. On the iPod I go to play a song but the music time counter remains on 0:00. When it does this faint sounds of the song trying to start can be heard, but then a lot of static comes up. A song did start once but it stoped at 7 seconds. I've tried the 5 Rs and everything I can think of! Please Help!

IPod mini doesn't connect in Windows after doing an Update

Please help!
I promised to put some music om my friend's iPod (1st generation) from my computer. When I connected it with my computer, i first did a new update. After that the problems began!! After completing the update the ipod showed a picure of an adapter, so i connected the iPod (2 days ago) to the adapter. But now, after reading of the internet about updating a 1st generation iPod, the logo still shows on the screen!! When i disconnect the iPod, it doesn't respond on anything but a reset, but when i reset it, i still get the picture of an adapter on the screen!!
I've tried all the 'solutions' that are written on the Apple website, but they didn't help. And i still can't RESTORE the iPod, because my computer doesn't recognize the iPod anymore AT ALL!!
My own iPod (2e generation) still works on Windows and is recognized everytime, but after the update my friend's iPod just doesn't get recognized on my computer!!
Can somebody please help me to get a solution for this problem?!

Uninstall ipod and reinstall from the disk provided with ipod

IPod Mini doesn't appear in iTunes

It seems I'm having a similar problem (but not exact) as some other folks. My iPod Mini (4GB) suddenly stopped showing up on the finder and in iTunes. I checked the support Web Site, and followed the "5 R's". I followed all of the steps, including resetting the iPod, re-installed iTunes and the latest version of iPod Update software, and finally completely restored my iPod to the original settings (thus deleting all of the content on the iPod).
Now, the iPod shows up in the finder, but still doesn't automatically launch iTunes nor show up in iTunes when I launch the application myself. The support section then leads me to believe that I may need to archive and re-install my OS X (10.4) software. I wanted to check here before I took that step to see if anyone had any other ideas, or to see if I was heading down the right path.
For what it's worth, the iPod performs as expected when I hook it into my iMac, so I don't think there's anything wrong with the iPod itself. Finally, my Powerbook (1 GHz) and iMac (G4, 1 GHz) are both running OS X (10.4.3).
Any help or advice that any of you might have would be greatly appreciated. I hope all of you have a great New Year!

This is a little creepy. My daughter's iPod Mini is doing the same thing. We bought it for her a year ago, Christmas. Not only does it not appear, but when I tried to "Restore" it, I get an error message "No iPod Attached". We've had to shut down the iMac to disconnect it (just to be on the cautious side). Is there any way of saving songs before restoring? Thanks!

Help! my ipod mini doesn't respond AT ALL

when i plug it in, it doesn't do anything. when it's plugged in, i tried resetting it, and it says "do not disconnect" for about 5 seconds and goes back to the menu. i've tried different usb ports and it's just not working.. any help please?

Hi,
I think I found the answer...I had the same problem, and now my ipod mini works again.
How did you reset your ipod? did you just go the menu>settings>reset?...i tried that..and it didnt work.
I found another way of resetting. On your ipod, hold down "Menu" and the centre (select) button for a couple seconds until the apple logo appears. After that, connect the ipod to the computer again. Hopefully this works for you!

IPod Mini doesn't show up in ITunes and won't upload songs.

My iPod Mini shows up on my computer, but it doesn't ever show up in ITunes. I am using a computer that already had ITunes installed and was used by my sisters iPod. Does this matter? The manual says ITunes should open automatically and then transfer songs; ITunes doesn't open auto. and won't transfer songs to my iPod. Help!!!

My ipod mini doesn't mount in iTunes

Hi
When I connect my ipod to my pc and launch iTunes, it isn't mounted. The do not disconnect sign is viewed on the ipod mini. I've tried the 4 r's without success and when I tried the restore function the error message "firmware update failure. Disk write error" appeared. The ipod is viewed on my pc as drive E though. Please help or advise.
Thanks

Ipod mini doesn't appear to be recognized by updater

i have been having trouble with my mini. whenever i connect it to my PC, the ipod screen goes directly to ok to disconnect. I have tried the latest updater available but even when i plug in the mini when asked by the popup, the application never seems to acknowledge the mini being plugged in. both the update and restore buttons remain gray with no response from either when i click on them. i have tried resetting (both plugged into the PC and not) also.

Ipod mini won't respond to ANYTHING!

I hope someone out there can help; for the last week my ipod mini hasn't worked - only had it 12 months.
At first ITunes wouldn't recognise the ipod so i could put some new tracks on it, later i went to play a song while it was charging but it was skipping through all the songs on the album without playing any, i know it didn't have much battery life left but like i said it was on charge.
Now after what seems like a life time of trying to restore (like the website says) & looking at the unhappy face on the screen there's a sound coming out of the USB connection (on the bottom) which is like what you used to get when a CD got stuck!!
When i am trying to restore i follow the instructions but it isn't recognising when i plug it in.
Please help me!.......

Just to let you all know if this happens to you, your ipod mini is BROKEN! The only way to sort it out is send to Apple to repair - which, if out of warranty like mine, means you'll be paying for it and it'll cost you more than a brand new high range ipod!! Looks like i'll be using a different company from now on - thanks for the last 12 months but you've lost a customer now if it can't last more than 10 days after the warranty runs out!
