My nano won't turn off, and it is frozen on one screen?

My nano won't turn off, and it is frozen on one screen?

Could it be something as simple as the Hold switch got turned on? I would try resetting it. 
This will work for Nano's generation 1-5.
Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) button simultaneously until the  Apple logo appears, about 6-8 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
For a 6th Generation:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and Volume Down button simultaneously for 8-12 seconds or until the Apple logo appears. You may need to repeat this step.
For a 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.

    If you have done the reset and nothing appears and you are sure it still has a charge and it doesn't turn on, you may request for a replacement if it still covered by the warranty. Cheers!

  • IPod nano 3rd gen turnes off and on by itself

    I have a problem: my iPod nano 3rd generation turns off and on by itself every 5-7 seconds.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Is there a case around this iPod? It might be pushing on the touch wheel. Does it happen when you flick the lock switch? If so it seems like a restore is in order

    To be totally honest, about 3 weeks prior I spilled some milk from cereal on the desk and a little bit got onto the battery.
    I don't think you have a case.
    You can replace the logic board yourself if you are a DIY'er and save some money.

  • My ipad is stuck inbetween on and off.  The screen is black with the white apple in the middle.  It won't turn off and it won't come on.  anyone know what is wrong?

    My ipad is stuck inbetween on and off.  The screen is black with the white apple in the middle of the screen.  It won't turn off and won't come completely on.  Anyone know what is wrong?

    See if this lets the iPad start up.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Hi I just upgraded software through iTunes then unplugged iPhone now it is stuck on the connect to intunes screen, it won't turn off and iTunes and my computer won't recognize my phone? Please help

    Hi I just upgraded software through iTunes then unplugged iPhone now it is stuck on the connect to intunes screen, it won't turn off and iTunes and my computer won't recognize my phone? Please help

    My phone is doing the same thing. My computer acknowledges that I have connected my iPhone 4, however, iTunes will no longer connect or sync to my iPhone 4. I have uninstalled iTunes, Bonjour and all Apple products from my pc. I have re-installed them back on. I have reset my phone. I have emptied my temp folder. I have done everything. If my iPhone cannot update and sync with iTunes then I may as well get another phone from somewhere else. I am disappointed that I cannot resolve this issue.
    Rebeccaspe31, were you able to resolve your issue? If so how?

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Torch won't turn off and back camera won't work after dropping it in a pool. What can I do?

    I put it in rice as soon as I got back, and left it for 36 hours as instructed by a website and friends. Ever since dropping it the torch hasn't turned off and the bac camera won't work.

    Water and electronics do not mix well.  Your device may not ever work properly again, and probably needs to be replaced.  Unless you have the AppleCare Protection Plan Plus, then it will cost $199 USD to replace an iPhone 4S.
    The rice trick works best if you leave it for at least 4-5 days, not 1.5 days.  But even that is no guarantee.

  • Light of nano won't turn off - normal??

    Hi @ all!
    My problem:
    While connected to my Computer and also connected to iTunes, my iPod nano doesn't turn off its light as the 2nd gen nano did. It just stays lit on, saying 'Connected' and the 'disconnect from iTunes first' stuff as it should (i hope it should ^^)
    Is that normal?
    Shouldn't it turn off the light, as it's kinda waste of Electricity and it might have to load the battery longer as its lit all the time.
    Also I think that it's not very good for the display to show the same thing with light on for let's say 3 hours.
    Could anyone help me? Is it normal that the light stays turned on while connected to iTunes on 3rd gen iPod nanos?
    Thanx in advance
    elFlexor

    It stays on untill you "eject" it. After that you can leave it plugged in and the light will turn off like normal. You can let it charge as is, or you can turn the nano off. Either way it will charge with the light off.

  • IPhone won't turn off and won't sync even after I plug in my computer.

    My iPhone started acting odd after my husband updated it to iOS5.  It started with when I touch the apps, it responded with delay.  Today, when I want to check my email.  The app just simply not responding to any touch on the screen.  I tried to turn off to restart, but it won't turn off.  So I plug in my computer try to sync see if that can somehow makes it "budge".  I successfully upload the new photos from iPhone to my MacBookPro, but after that, it won't "sync".  The "sync" bottom on the itune page stay "gray".  I cannot click on it.  What should I do?
