Please Help! click wheel doesn't respond at all!

I was running with my brand stinking new ipod 60 gb color and then when i tried to use the clickwheel, it did not respond at all. The play and menu and all the other buttons including select won't work and i can't scroll using the clickwheel. I'm in Israel for the year, so I'm hoping I don't have to ship it to USA and then to APPLE cuz that can take months... so hopefully someone knows the solution. Please help. Im extremely distressed

I see that you are from Austin. My wife and I just moved from there 2 1/2 months ago... we sure miss Texas. I didn't think that I would be so attached. I am a Longhorn and really miss driving downtown and see the orange tower after a Longhorn victory.

  • My click wheel don't respond!

    Yeah, my Ipod (video) is frozen even after the reset? The click wheel doesn't respond but the battery is full.
    I can open it by turning the hold on to off, but the click wheel doesn't work, I don't know what to do!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    What happens when you press play? Does it play anything? Do the buttons work?
    Also, you may want to try a restore as well...

    My iPod photo's click wheel doesn't work? I can click it but cannot scroll with it...
    Any suggestions?

    That is a hardware issue.  Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.  If you want to DIY - iPod Repair Tutorials

    I don't know about your camera roll, but for photostream just do this:
    Go into Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and then sign back in using your Apple ID information.
    Make sure to do the same thing with your iTunes and App Store options.
    Settings > iTunes and App Store > Click Email and sign out, then sign back in.

  • Ipod click wheel does not work at all..

    I gave a friend of mine my 4g photo. It worked for him for a few days and then stopped. He brought it back to me and I restored it twice back to factory settings. Still nothing. The other weird thing is when you cycle between hold and on, it starts the ipod like it is an on and off switch. The click wheel does not respond, and the hold thing is just weird. I just would like to know if this is a hardware problem, and if there is anything I can do to get it up and running again.. thanks...

    hi muddy angel, recently i had a problem that sounds similar. my well cared and little used 40gb ipod didnt respond to the clickwheel -no reason that could be recognised. gravis in berlin, germans probably biggest apple dealer, checked the item. they told me it would be a rare, but well known very unlucky thing that clickwheels sometimes just give up their functions for unknown reasons. unfortunately my clickwheel did so, after the warrenty has run out a couple of weeks ago and as well annoying is the fact that a replacement of the clickwheel is horrible expensive. so, if you have the opportunity to have your ipod checked by a hardware pro - try it.

  • I got my iPhone 5 s almost a month ago and updated its iOS but from there on I started having problems, the ph sometimes doesn't respond at all to the touch or apps start to open on their own very rapidly and this continues till it can go no further!

    First steps in troubleshooting:
    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Then reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

    Did you change the ID you are using for iCoud?  If so, did you delete the account, then sign back in with your new ID on your device?

    Had you never backed up the phone before? When you saw the iTunes logo and cable, the device was in recovery mode. The data was already lost. The only way to recover from that is to restore the device, which will delete all of your data. You will only be able to restore to your last backup, whenever that was. Sorry this happened, but this highlights the importance of doing regular backups. The backup is the only protection you have against a problem like this.

  • Wheel doesn't respond when being touched

    I have recently updated my Ipod 2GB White Nano, it has been frozen for at least 2 weeks now and the wheel still doesnt respond. I have restored it to factory settings and held the center button and menu button many times and moved the lock switch back and forth many times. Nothing seems to move the wheel . Any suggestions?

    To make sure it is a hard ware issue, reinstalle intunes (make sure it is not curport) and restore your ipod through itunes. If that still doesn't work, probably hardware.
    It is relativly easy to change the click wheel, you just have to be careful and take your time. I did it recently and it costed me under $10 to do it myself. You could send the ipod out, not sure how much that would cost.
    Anyway hope this helps at least someone.

  • I-Pod click wheel doesn't work

    Hi everyone,
    I have a 20GB I-Pod and the click wheel hasn't been working since Friday. I think it's a mechanical problem because it doesn't respond to touch or the 5 R's.
    The hold button works and it shows up in I-Tunes. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

  • Part of Click Wheel Does Not Respond

    When gliding my finger in a circular motion on the Click Wheel, there is no response in the "3-6" area (if you look at the wheel as a clock). The rest of the wheel responds fine.
    I was having an issue where the wheel was massively over sensitive, just the slightest touch would cause the highlighted item to change erratically. I solved that issue by doing a reset (switch the hold slider on/off, hold down the menu/select buttons).
    This is looking to be a physical hardware problem. Any advice?
    My ipod is about 6 months old.
    Thanks
    Walter

    I have the same problem with my brand new IPOD 3 weeks old. I can't click move or do anything.
    Should I restore? I bought it in US and back home in Thailand. But the problem is no Apple store in Thailand. I can send it to my friend and ask him to restore and sand back to me but I'm afraid about warranty period? What should I do?
    Thank You

  • Help! iPod doesn't respond

    I plugged my iPod nano (1G) to my computer and it didn't respond. I Tried plugging it to FireWire and nothing happens. I also tried holding the menu and center keys... nothing.
    Please help!

    Hi,
    I think I found the answer...I had the same problem, and now my ipod mini works again.
    How did you reset your ipod? did you just go the menu>settings>reset?...i tried that..and it didnt work.
    I found another way of resetting. On your ipod, hold down "Menu" and the centre (select) button for a couple seconds until the apple logo appears. After that, connect the ipod to the computer again. Hopefully this works for you!
