Ipod works but buttons don't :(

Hello.
Last night I was listening to a long audio book and fell a sleep. The ipod kept playing the book the whole night and was still ongoing when I woke up.
The sound and everything was going fine but they buttons don't work! The hold button works fine and the ipod turns the backlight on each time I switch it on and off and I can see the little lock icon in the corner, so I can safely say that the ipod works fine except the buttons don't respond to anything.
I've tried the 5 steps, tried plugging it to my computer or just electricity, but nothing works and I can't let it run out of juice since it just automatically switches off because of no activity. And obviously I can't restart it since the buttons don't work.
Any ideas of how to fix it?

    Your iPhone and iPod can share the same iTunes account.  Apps can be freely shared and used by one or both devices.  You can't use money in your iTunes account to pay for your phone, but purchased apps can be used by both the iPod and iPhone.

  • Ipod works but no sound

    My ipod works and does all other functions but even with the volume all the way up, no music plays when my earphones are plugged in. I've checked the earphones with my other ipod and they are fine. Someone help!!! and yes I've already done the restore and made sure the software is up to date

    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    If yo still have the problem after restoring the iPod to factory settings/new iPod that indicates a hardware problem and appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. It could be a bad headphone jack. A third-party place like the following si a lot less expensive of getting it repaired by Appe since Apple on exchanges the iPod for this price.

  • Flash file zooms but buttons don't stay where they should

    I've attached the example files I'm working with.  I have a zooming component that zooms in my flash file by loading it with an .xml file, but the buttons don't stay over the buttons once it gets loaded into the component.  The buttons move off into space.
    Do you see what the issue is?

    I think what is happening is that the whole file is scaling which is somehow messing up the positioning of the buttons.
    Here's what I've done so far:
    - create a movie clip of .swf file toolip and center it.
    - the zoom_test.swf loads in the 2008_19.swf file to be zoomed and panned via the data.xml file
    Since I created a movieclip of the .swf file tooltip, when you open up 2008_19.swf, the tooltip does not rollover the button anymore,
    it is a little further away from the button.
    I'm not sure what you mean by scaling the parent, because with this functionality, the whole file, 2008_19 is being scaled.

    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot

    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • Palm Pre: Touchscreen and gesture area stop working but buttons continue to work

    I am a Volunteer here, not employed by HP.

    If it solved your issue, Click the "Accept as Solution" button so others can benefit from the question you asked!

    This is now happening to me too - more over just the last week. Strange things happen - setting the clock alarm freezes the Pre. Also, after charging - battery icon does not appear - coupled with the touchscreen freeze but buttons working (these are 2 single instances - although charging on the Touchstone has been quirky). Over the last 10 days, several Palm Pre initiated resets (just like my old Treo) so something must be wacky. So far for me, the power button press and back & forth ringer method has successfully rebooted and 'fixed' the 'freeze' problem. Did you have and end resolution?

  • HT1320 Old iPod works but not on my Bose docking station.? Help!

  • My ipod work, but my computer don't reconize it???

    Hi everyone!
    Tanks in advance for helping me, cause im very depressed!
    My story is a bit long to explain, but i think i should details to solve the problem! (Sorry for my language, im french!)
    All begin a little bit earlier today when i connect my iPod to is deck. I eard a noise that i did'nt ear before. You know when a disk skip, or something like this. And, my computer was not reading it (neither in windows or iTunes)
    Then it's was impossible to disconnect my iPod.
    When i finally succes to disconnect it (with Safely Remove Hardware) i was not able to turn off my iPod.
    then i reset my iPod and saw the little apple. Then, a file with an ! came trought the screen.
    I follow all the instruction in this site, and nothing work it out! So, i decided to erase and restore all of my iPod. but again, it was impossible to connect to my computer?!
    A message occured that tell me that the formating have failed and my computer turn off by himself!
    Then, i take my iPod and check if is work. All was erase...nothing was left. The i uninstall iTunes and iPod program and download the latest from apple site. Again, the computer don't reconize my iPod. When i finally remove my iPod from the computer, all my song were back.???
    But, when i see the option, thats tell me that i have 3759 song, a capacity of 37,1 Gb (that was normal)but only 58 mB available. And i still can connect my iPod to my computer!
    If somebody can help me before i ship my pod to apple, it will be greatful!
    Tanks and sorry for the language!

    When you unplug your ear phones, peek in the audio output port and look for a red light.  If so, the switch is stuck and these are the options for remedying the problem.
    1. Stick the earphone plug in a few times.
    2. Blow in it real hard or use compressed air.
    3. Jiggle a tooth pick or the like inside the port.
    If no success, then it is time for an appointment at a genius bar.
    Ciao.

  • Flash buttons with action script working but I don't understand them enough to use

    My addy is www.abdezines.com firstly otherwise i will forget.
    Can anyone explain to me how my buttons work as I have pulled
    them apart many a time and can not get my ead around them to be
    able to re create in a similar idea. Someone built them for me
    previously but will no longer help when all I want to do is
    understand them so I can do them myself. I can change the wording
    when they are in my current website, the speed it moves and the
    same with the arrows but I cant see how to start it elsewhere
    despite all my digginh around in it.
    If someone can perhaps talk me through it, I have the files
    for it if wanted.
    Many thanks

  • I have an Ipod shuffle but i don't understand how it works? I created an Apple account and then went to iTunes to buy music but it's telling me I need an account.

    How do i download music for iPod Shuffle?

    You can't. The only way to get songs in the Music app is to sync from a computer or to download from iTunes.

  • I have music on my iPod touch but I don't know why isn't  playing

    I used iTunes to put some music on my iPod.no I have music on my iPod but is not playing at all.maybe I should download a software or a player to solve this problem?thank you

    From speaker?
    From headphones?
    Does the iPod make any sounds?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • IPod working, but no sound

    I have a 30gb video ipod. Up until about 2 weeks ago, I used it with great results in my car, with an itrip and at home on an iboom. Then it just stopped working. The strange thing is, it is not a hardware problem, because when I connect it to either of those, or to my PC, it recognizes and charges the ipod. The ipod lights up as if it is ready to play, but if I put a song on, no sound comes out. Just to be safe, I tried my friend's ipod on both and it worked fine. It also doesn't work with headphones
    I ran diags on my ipod and everything is fine. I have reset the ipod. I have updated my software to 1.2.1 on the ipod and 7.3 itunes. I wasn't really looking forward to restoring it, but when I realized that was all that was left, I did it.....no help. Still not working.
    The "genius" in the apple store said he has never seen anything like this before. I have an appointment with another genius on Monday, but I was hoping maybe you guys would have an answer for me....I have always had more luck here than anywhere else.
    My warranty ran out 2 weeks ago, but I had forgotten to extend the apple care, so I am probably screwed, right?
    Has anyone ever heard of this happening?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Nicki

    Thanks Deggie,
    I see no signs of damage. It is also not working with my headphones and it charges ok, so I figured it couldn't be the pins...which had been my first assumption.
    I went to a couple 3rd party places online to see if they knew what it could be and got 3 different answers....headphone jack (which I know it isn't), system board and logic board. I have an appt tomorrow with the apple store, so I'll see what they say it is and then buy and fix the part myself. I did that with my old nano and it is alot easier than I thought it would be. Since my apple care is up (2 weeks ago, of course) it will be cheaper this way.
    Stupid question coming, but whatever....logic board and system board are both differnt things right? Cause when I go online to see prices, most sites have one or the other, but I haven't found a site that sells both, which is starting to make me think they are the same thing.
    Thanks Again for any info...

  • New 80gb iPod works, but not shown as a disk drive... help!

    Hi,
    My brand new iPod is not show as a disk drive, even though it shows on iTunes, and has been updated, synchronized.
    Even after enabling disk use, it still isn't there.
    It is on the device manager, and it says that the device is working ok.
    I have restored the iPod, and rebooted several times, but i still can't use it as a hard drive.
    Please can anyone help!
    Regards,
    Adan

    hmmmm. occasionally that behavior is a symptom of a Windows drive letter confusion. see:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
