Nano not turning off...HELP

My nano is just not turning off. When I press and hold the pause button, nothing happens to my nano. The screen is still showing up, what has happened?? Please help and advise....I have tried turning on and off the hold button but still no success...HELP

Consider the possibility that you have broken the phone by dropping it "more or less 3 times". You can get an out of warranty replacement for a (reasonable) fraction of the retail price from Apple.

Ipod nano firewire error and will not turn off! PLEASE help

I am having the exact same problem as I see may of you unfortunate Apple users are. I am receiving the error message about firewires and I have never used one. The nano will not turn off and I have to let the battery run out. The play/pause function works perfectly fine, but not to turn off the nano. The sleep function does not do anything either. I am so disappointed with Apple because they would not help me on the phonbe since it is well past my first 90 days of ownership. I may have gotten a single drop of water on it, but that was about 2 weeks ago, and still having the same problems. I don't know what to do, but I see that Apple has gotten mighty rich off of their JUNK products! Anyone out there, help me please!

Do a reset. You will not lose any data: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If this does not help resore from a backup. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Lastly try restoring to factory settings.
If none of this works, it's probably a hardware problem. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of your Apple store. You are under warranty and they will fix or replace it on the spot.

Ipod nano white screen and not turning off

hi I bought a new mini pioneer stereo/dvd and put my ipod nano on it yesterday.. no probs it played.... but today i put it on the dock and all that it showed on the screen was a white screen with "ok to disconnect" on it... I took it off and now it is still a white screen adn flashing "Do not disconnect" I'm freaking out because I am not technically minded and my brother spent hours putting music on it for me
It is not turning off at all
eek
Thanks to anyone with time to help me

Hi
It seems to be ok now... I had to go out and it ran out of battery, when I switched it back on it appears to be fine.
If it happens again (hoping that it doesn't!) and i do the reset.. will that remove all the music that's on there?
Sorry for the ignorance
Thank you for the answer

The iPod does not need to be turned off to reset it. Here are the instructions for resetting the ipod. If this fails to do the trick you may want to try and do a restore.

The iPod Nano battery will not charge unless you connect it to your computer, to an AC outlet with a wall adapter, a charging dock or an auto adapter/dock.
You battery is always discharging when idle or shut off. You should read the manual for your model iPod Nano regarding batteries - iPod Manuals

Does iPod nano automatically turns off if not used in 2 minutes?

Does iPod nano automatically turns off if not used in 2 minutes?
this is the questions tha runs my mind bcoz I just bought it about 2 weeks ago and just this recently I noticed that it automatically switches off after 2 minutes if remained untouched even if i did not set the sleep mode. Well, it normally functions coz during playing a song it does not sleeps but by the time pausing the song and after two minutes the nano switches off, but if you press any key it goes back again and you can play the paused song again. is this thing normal? i am really bothered by this. please help me THANKS A LOT

I recently bought a 2nd Generation 8Gb iPod Nano and can state for a fact that if you pause a song for exactly two minutes the device will turn off, probably to save batttery power. I tested it three times already and clocked it.
However, I also noticed that my iPod also seems to turn off by itself (even when sleep / timer is not selected) when I'm shuffling through songs using the forward/next and/or rewind/back buttons repeatedly.
Is this normal, or just a bad coincidence?
I've tried the 5 Rs but the problem persists. It really annoys me because I have the habit of skipping lots of songs.

HT201401 there is no sound when I play a video or music also it s not turning off.It s restarting.please help me.

Hi, before 3 months when I start to play any video or music to listen, I could not hear any sound. if I want to play video as handsfree mode it s not possible to hear any sound other problem is it s not turning off. When you want to turning off it s restarting...please help me.

Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

Help! My s3 is stuck on a "DOWNLOADING... Do Not Turn Off Target!!" page!

I've had the worst time charging my phone since the new kitkat update. Today while my phone was plugged in to "charge" instead of the battery level increasing...it went down!
I switched chargers and that didn't help, so I pulled the battery. Ten or fifteen minutes after putting the battery back in and turning on my phone, it acted like it was rebooting and then suddenly a green android guy popped up on my screen with the words: "DOWNLOADING... Do Not Turn Off Target!!" under it. In the upper left hand corner it says "factory mode". I didn't push any random combination of buttons...just the power button. I don't know what to do! Someone please help, I can't not have my phone.

*update*
My phone got past the android guy...but it won't charge still. It's stuck on the "charging" screen that shows up when the phone is off... but it won't boot up completely. It'll through the boot up process but once it gets to my main phone screen (where I can see my background and apps) it turns itself off again.

External volume on 5G Nano will not turn off

External volume always stays on, will not turn off on 5G iPod Nano, even when headphones are plugged in.
Went through the 5 R's (Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall, Restore). No change.
Could it be a defective volume control?

I had same problem - I reset options, etc.
FINALLY, after reviewing this discussion and going to the link as was suggested, I called Apple. The tech guy suggested making sure it was not on lock (on top) which it wasnt' and said to press Menu and Middle circle button (as opposed to Play/pause) at same time and apple logo should appear. It did, and then it unfroze and let me turn it off finally!!!
He thought problem occurs when you leave it on too long.
He suggested NOT to reset options else you'll lose your playlists (at least until you sinc up with your itunes.
Hope this works!!

HELP ..N8..Phone freezes and will not turn off

Help me !!!!!!!!
Phone freezes and will not turn off ........ It still calling HELPPPPPPPP......
What can or should I do.....
Reply asap..... It's calling about 4 hours now........... I can hear any nokia tunes anymore !!!!
HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEE
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hmmm, I am not sure if there is another way. Since the battery is not removable for users and the 8 second -3 buzzes press don't work, I don't think there are another way to get it off.
Try connect the charger to it and do the 8 second press again, if not I think you will have to either let the battery run out untill it turns off it self or take it to a Nokia care point.

Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears. See if that clears the glitch.

Try holding the power and home buttons for ten to fifteen seconds until the apple appears. If still bad, try a restore from within the computer&itunes.
