1. Enter Settings
2. Select Main Menu
3. Switch the last option: Sleep to On
4. Select Sleep from the iPod main menu to turn it off, then (of course) put the Hold switch on Lock.

Scary thing is I have put less than 300 hours total on this ipod. I'm sorry but for $250 I would expect to get more than ONE year out of it!
You did, you got 20 months out of it. It has a battery with limited charges. If you did not condition it properly it dies sooner just like all batteries. Furthermore, we only have your word that you put 300 hours into it.
There has got to be a reason they are on what...5th generation? I work in manufacturing every time we make a new product due to "upgrades" it's usually because what you have doesn't work very good. I bought in April 06 and they have now gone through how many redesigns? sorry - that excuse doesn't cut it.
lolz
Glad you don't work in any industry with competition.
In the electronics world if you stagnate you go out of business. Same goes with cars, clothing, and the majority of things that are sold. Clearly, your approach is asinine given the marketshare and trillions of dollars that products that refresh with new versions make every year. And again, you can complain all you like but it worked just fine for well over a year and a half. It wasn't a manufacturing problem that caused it to suddenly fail. Maybe one of those kids of yours got to it when you weren't looking? That sounds much more probable than spontaneous failure.
And, no. The Nano is on its 3rd generation. One generation for every year its been sold.

MY IPOD WONT TURN ON HELP?

I tried to charge my ipod and nothing comes on! I have used 2 different cords, is it something with the ipod

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 wont turn on or update after iTunes 7, please help

It's a 2004, 20gb iPod with click-wheel. A friend gave it to me, if I can try to repair it. Apparently it died after installing iTunes 7. The iPod wont turn on or respond to anything. The only time it does is when its connected to a computer. At first iTunes reported that the iPod is corrupted and needs to be restarted. And when it turns on, theres an icon with an exclamation mark and an URL pointing me to Apple's support. At first i tried with various older firmware files and I got the messega that there was an error formatting the ipod. iTunes 7 gave a 1418 or 1429 error at the end of the updating process.
I tried with resetting it, putting it in the disk mode and then erasing and/or partitioning it with Disk utility and it was always the same. I tried unplugging all the other devices when updating, just like recommended. Again nothing worked.
Here comes the peculiar part:
Then I did a complete erase, writting zeros over the whole disk in Disk utility. It took ages and then finally stopped with an error just before finishing. After that I can update my iPod just fine with iTunes 7, I can even name it again and start adding songs(it takes forever for just one song). Even older updaters say its fine. But after unplugging it from the computer its still dead and it still displays the error icon. All that got me so confused.
I find it hard to believe that a hardware error suddenly appeared just after installing iTunes 7 and I am really hoping for any help I could get because I dont want to give up on it just yet. Thanks.

Hi kingminjing,
Have you checked your Control Panel to make sure you don't have the flashlight turned on?
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and make sure the flashlight icon (bottom left-hand corner) is not white. If it is, tap on it to turn it off.
Cheers,

Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 1600, 1601, 1602
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
