Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

Replace the screen yourself if you are up to it

my iPod nano screen is frozen and will not respond. It shows the song which was playing is paused, but will not resume playing. I have held down all controls, and changed the slide switch, but nothing happens
Hi Goofy Goat,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you have done some great troubleshooting for your iPod nano that is not responding. In this situation, if resetting it did not resolve, I would suggest restoring the iPod back to its factory settings and then sync your content back onto it from iTunes. Please use the following article as a resource for restoring.

My iPhone 5 constanlty reboots, sometimes the screen turns blue and the unit reboots and sometimes it just shuts down. Any Suggestions?
I am having the same problem with my ipad air but mine is so severe that it's just rebooting non stop. I guess the battery will die eventually but it has rendered the device useless. I guess I will be taking it back to apple. Very disappointed. Never had an apple product in 20yrs have such a severe problem.

Problem: my iPhone 4S (1yr old) has started buzzing for no apparent reason. I cannot stop it or turn the thing off. The screen is black and does not respond to touch. Any suggestions?
Thanks, AM_Kidd, I had tried that before but I tried again and this time it WORKED!!!!
The buzzing stopped and I have the home screen up again.
Phew! It may be that it had been on charge for the last 30 mins.
Whatever. Again, many thanks. -
IPod nano 4Go keeps conecting and disconnecting
Hi, my iPod nano 4Go kept connecting and disconnecting from the main unit(threw USB2 cable), then it started booting other and other again. What kind of a problem is this? Now the batteries are empty... (the iPod is 4 months old).
Ercorr.My 80 GB iPod Classic is having the same problem -- when I connect it to the computer, it syncs as it should and then when I attempt to disconnect it, it starts syncing again. It does this no matter whether I disconnect through iTunes or through the desktop (i.e., dragging the iPod icon to the dock to eject it). This never happened before a software update last week. I forget the update but it was something to do with the Intel processor, I think. My date and time was also screwed up but when I woke up this morning that was finally ok.

IPod Nano Screen is blank and dosen't turn on or off.
I leave my ipod nano on for 2 seconds. Screen turns blank and dosen't turn on or off. iTunes dosen't recognize it. Nothing I do works. Charging dosen't work. iPod, however seems to be on sleep mode.
After leaving the iPod to charge for a minimum of at least 30 minutes, have you tried a hard reset of the device? To do this, make sure the hold switch along the top is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

I've tried turning off and on...even tried reloading to factory settings....sometimes tapping the icons results in that jiggling behaviour. Really frustrating to wait on it so often. Any suggestions?
Hello there Mescalero,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like the iPod Nano is acting strangley.
You have done some great troubleshooting already. One thing I do not see as having been done, is resetting the iPod. Try this out, and see if it resolves the issue.
Reset iPod nano
To reset iPod nano try Step #1 or Step #2:
1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for six seconds, or until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo appears after a few seconds, and then the Home screen. You may need to repeat this step.
2. From the Home screen on the device, tap Settings then:
Tap Reset Settings.
Tap Reset, or tap Cancel if you change your mind.
Tap your language, then tap Done.
If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into a working electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to power.From: iPod nano not appearing in iTunes http://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano/assistant/itunes/#section_4

The past couple of times I've plugged my iPod into iTunes it has said it's failed to sync it to my iTunes and hasn't allowed me to put music onto my iPod so I plugged it in today and it told me I needed to restore my iPod to be able to sync my music, photos, etc, onto my iPod and wasn't letting me do anything else with my iPod on iTunes, so, I was forced to restore it if I wanted to actually put more music on to my iPod. Restoring is not a great issue with myself because I always make sure to have folders saved on my laptop with back ups of photos and music, but, when I did restore it and it finished it popped up with this message:
So, I clicked okay and it told me for the recovery of my iPod I had to restore it again. I restored it. Again. It came up with this message. Again.
Can someone please help me? I will be very grateful!
I updated my iTunes about a week ago, I'm not sure if that could have anything to do with it?
Thank you,

Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
