If you purchased Apple Care, call them and get a case number. Otherwise, take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

My iPod is dead, and it will not charge. Also, my lock button is stuck. What should I do to fix it?

Earlier today, my iPod touch lock button got stuck. That wasn't a problem. Now, it wont charge. I just tired to reset it, and it went off. But now, I can't even turn it back on. What should I do??!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of these:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
- 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.

My lock button is stuck and when I push it it won't lock. Should I bring it to the apple store?

Yeah so my lock button is stuck inside the iPod and I can't get it out. It doesn't lock my iPod but if I try to push it nothing happens. Should I bring it to the apple store by my house??

You can't backup the iPod then.
Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and restore via iTunes:

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If data is not in the backup then:
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Maybe you can get some info from the restored iPod via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

My screen is cracked and my home button is stuck down. Where can I get this fixed?

On my iPod touch 4th G my screen broke in the bottom right corner and there are spider cracks all the way up to the top of my iPod screen. Also, now my home button is stuck down; a shard of glass probably is preventing the button from popping back up. Where can I get this fixed?

Apple will exchange it for a refurbished one for $99, $149 or $199 depending up the capacity.

Iphone 4 power button is stuck down and iphone won't turn on

My iPhone 4 power button is stuck down, and it won't come back up. The next best part is, my phone is either off or dead i don't know which, and i plug it into my computer/wall charger and nothing happens.

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.
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
- 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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Buttons getting stuck down

Since 2.0.2 (and even before I think) buttons have been getting stuck down after I press them. This doesn't happen very often- maybe once or twice a day- but this is a very major issue IMHO! Today I was in notes, looking at one of my notes (a to-do list) and I deleted a few characters. The delete button got stuck down and deleted almost everything in the note before I could get out of it. I am pretty ****** off because there was a lot of important information in that note.
Is this a known issue, and will it be fixed soon?

Have you tried doing a hard reset of the phone? (Hold down the sleep/wake button on the top right of the phone and the home button until you see the apple logo)

Warranty on a refurbished unit is 90 days or the remainder of the original phone's warranty, whichever is longer. If you're outside this period, you will again pay the replacement fee.
