Hello Angelina43,
I understand that your iPod nano is no longer responding. I would recommend resetting it:

How to reset an iPod nano (7th generation)
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo should appear after a few seconds, then the Home screen should appear.
Thanks,

  • What can I do if my ipod just stopped working?

    what can I do if my ipod just stopped working? I just purchased it on Aug 23, 2013. I was jogging with it then it just shut down and have not been able to turn it back on.

    It could be, since Apple is not liable for user negligence. However, there is no way to definitevely say yes or no on these forums. Apple will run a diagnostic on the device and draw their own conclusions. I would advise not telling them that part though. Best of luck.

    Ok one day out of the blue my ipod just stopped working it wouldnt turn on nothing but after recovering it, it's fine now but there is only one problem my screen wont work i can't do anything on it not even unlock it please someone help!!!!

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

    Have you tried unpairing the remote? You do this by pointing your remote at the Apple TV and holding the MENU and Left buttons down together for 6 seconds.

    Hi Kayleenfromwi,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  You may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service.  This article has instructions for doing this:

    If that doesn't resolve the issue, I would recommend trying the steps in this article:

  • Help my classic 160 ipod just stopped working

    my ipod classic has just stopped working. Wont connect to anything. dead as a dodo. help

    thanks a million think that might have worked. I did it and seemed like nothing happen so before a threw it against the wall, lol, i plugged it into the computer via usb and it started to charge.
    Now this leads me to another issue i have had before, that is itunes not recognizing my ipod when it is plugged in. That is what is happening now, and this has happen before. The solution i have had before was to shut down MAC and restart, which is very annoying when trying to add a pod-cast to ipod and leave the house. Any thoughts???
    thanks again!

  • My iPod just stopped working.  No charging, no screen.. nothing.

    I desperately need help.  My laptop is my life.  I don't have any idea why or when it stopped working, but I was using it and it was just fine, but then I got a notice that there was a 43% charge left on my battery.  So I made sure everything was plugged in and it was all fine, but it still wasn't charging and it just died.  Completely dead.  No screen except black, no buttons to show it is on or charging.  What can I do?  Is it my charging corrd?  Considering this is m y4th ****** charge cord, that wouldn't suprise me.
    Are there any suggestions that I can try to see it I can get it to work or to check my cords"

    Try:
    - Another cable
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 Ipod just stopped working, the screen got black and now I can't open it. I have tried to charge it but it doens't work.

    My Ipod touch 5 just stopped working. The screen got black and now I can't use it or start it.
    I have tried to charge it but it doens't start and when I tried to connect it with my computer it didn't work either.
    I saw that you could hold down the "home" button and the "power" button at the same time but my home button doens't work so I can't do that.
    Is there any other way I can fix it or do I have to go to an apple store? 

    Try:
    Turn on without Home/Power Button

  • My ipod just stopped working.

    hi. I got my ipod shuffle 2nd Generation a while ago and it had so far worked fine, until I connected it today and windows gave the "USB device cannot be recognized" error message. I updated Itunes (which was a hard thing to do in itself) but I still get the same message. I tried the 5R's but I can't get them done because the ipod doesn't show neither in Windows nor in itunes. Do i have to reset my ipod? replace it? (Windows suggests I replace it :P) It still plays the music inside it, but I don't think the battery charges or anything, because the orange lights blinks twice, I get the message and the light turns off completely.
    I tried the Ipod in my laptop (to which i had connected it in the past) and got the same message. any suggestions?
    PC   Windows XP Pro  

    me too! My (3rd) shuffle was working fine (versions 1 & 2 went back to the shop as they didn't work!) until suddenly it stopped playing music. I thought the battery was dead, but when i go to recharge the orange light blinks 3x & nothing else. The Ipod is not recognised by either Itunes or as hardware attache, by 2 diff pc's...my only guess is that this 1 is broke too, and I WILL NOT be getting version 4, just my money back...

  • 3RD GENERATION IPOD NANO STOPPED WORKING THE SECOND I CONNECTED IT TO ITUNES TO UPDATE MY LIBRARY ... I TRIED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE AND NOTHING IS WORKING ... AND IT WAS WORKING PERFECT RIGHT BEFORE I CONNECTED TO ITUNES ... HMMM.

    I DONT KNOW WHERE TO START BUT OR STARTERS LET ME JUST SAY I TOOK GREAT CARE OF MY IPOD NANO 3RD GEN AND THERE IS NO REASON ON MY PART WHY IT STOPPED WORKING... BUT IT DID STOP WORKING AS SOON AS I CONNECTED IT TO MY ITUNES LIBRARY... SO I AM A BIT SUSPICIOUS TO SAY THE LEAST... I ALSO HAVE AN IPOD TOUCH AND THAT'S WORKING JUST FINE. BUT BACK TO MY IPOD NANO 3RD GEN... WHAT THE **** IS GOING ON WITH IT

    Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

  • Help.. ipod just stopped working!!

    My ipod pretty much has just stoped working. i didnt drop it or anything. i always use it in my car and it use to work fine but all the sudden it would just freeze..and i would have to wait for the battery to die so it would unfreeze. but then the same thing would happen again once i tried to play a song. the song would play for about 30 seconds before freezing. i have no idea what is wrong with it or how to fix it. i was reading other peoples post and people were saying to restore it?? i dont know what that is or how to do it.

    Tara1m,
    Welcome to the discussions.
    Try resetting first, and then restoring if problems persist:

  • IPod Nano stops working after 1.0.2 firmware update

    I just updated the firmware of my ipod nano last night to 1.0.2. I was using thru out the day when it suddenly stops playing the next music in my playlist. My ipod shows the play icon but there is no sound and the play track is not moving. Tried to play a different music and videos but the same problem occurs. Tried to reset is several times but doesn't fix the problem will try to reset the firmware later when I get home.

    Just got the nano 3rd gen yesterday. Already had a Nano 1st gen. Running Itunes 7.x on windows 2000 os at work (1st gen nano used there). Needed new Nano in a hurry, so went to RShack and bought one. Ran home....Itunes says wont work with Nano 3rd gen. Went to download upgrade for Itunes, and find out the upgrade won't run unless running windows XP or VISTA.... Borrrowed a laptop with XP OS and got latest Itunes. Happy...happy...joy...joy, now I can get Itunes and new Nano to work together. Now gotta get music off old Nano and into new Nano usiing borrowed laptop. (Found a program on net called 'SimpleCenter' to do this.) Xferred music from old Nano to Itunes on laptop, then transferred entire library to new Nano. (Was out of reach of wireless network while doing this, so was unable to 'UPDATE NANO' when prompted by Itunes.)
    Sooo...
    Took laptop over to its owners home (and wirless network) and Updated the firmware to 1.0.2. When supposedly complete, the new Nano starts to Reset continuously (Apple Logo....Menu Screen......Apple Logo.....Menu Screen....Apple Logo etc. etc.) Oh 'darn' ........
    So frustrating.... Disconnected new Nano from laptop during the couple seconds the main menu was showing.
    For grins went to play the solitaire game that comes with new Nano, but comes up with error message saying it (the game) won't load. (Worked fine earlier, before the 'upgrade')
    Oh Mannnn..... I find that there a 'ton' of other 3rd gen Nano usere having same problem with firmware upgrade 1.0.2.
    I will wait for some response from Apple on this issue for a few weeks before I take the device back to dealer. I expect that this problem will be resolved by Apple in quick order in the form of a new firmware upgrade (or something similar). I really don't want to hassle the dealer at this time, and can live with the old Nano at least until the end of November, when I will be needing both Nanos for a special event.
