Wet hands on clicker now menu button no longer works

I used the clicker wheel on my ipod mini with wet hands. now thew menu button no longer functions and I cannot move backwards? Any clues

Same thing happened to me (actually, I didn't have wet hands, but I could neither get back to the menu NOR could I shut down the mini). I did all the usual things (reset, restore, etc, etc) but nothing worked.
SHORT TERM:
I (and others with the same problem) found that you can 'back up' through your menus again by switching the HOLD button (to HOLD and back again, fairly quickly). Once you get used to it, it works every time. As far as turning it off, if I reset the mini, then I could turn it off. BIG HASSTLE, but it kept the mini working.
LONG TERM:
Mine was out of warrenty (however, my credit card is one that extends the warrenty for a year). So I went through the hassle of returning to Apple, paying $200 (yeah, you got that right, the same as a new mini). I just received my new (probably refurbished) mini back yesterday. Thankfully, I've finished all the paperwork, and expect my credit card company to pay me the $200 !

Menu button no longer working

Hi,
I have had my iPod since June of 2004, and I love it. Two days ago my Menu button stopped working.
Here's what's happening... for example, assume you are listening to a song. You want to stop listening to it and listen to another song on another playlist. You would press the pause button and then the MENU button. Well, the MENU button is no longer working, and I am stuck on that song.
I have tried reflashing the firmware twice using ipod-updater-2005-10-15, and then recharge the iPod. Nothing has worked.
I have also noticed that when I take my iPod off hold, the backlight goes on.
I use my iPod all the time in the car. I using a transponder, not headphones...
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks Mitch 751. I had a sinking feeling that would be the case, but I was hoping it was not.
In any case, I appreciate your reply.
I guess I am off to send my iPod to iPod Hospital.
Have a great weekend,
Chris

Why does my button no longer work in Flash Player 8?

Hi,
I have built a site in Flash MX a while ago. Now I’d
like to upgrade things a bit while testing the new Adobe Flash CS3.
To be able to use a new function (“anti-alias for
readability”) the program warns me that “this feature
is not supported by Flash Player 6. To use this feature, you must
target Flash player 8.”
So I change the setting to Flash Player 8, leaving
Actionscript to version 2.0.
However, now one of my main menu buttons no longer works!
When I change settings back to Flash Player 6, things are fine
again. What am I overlooking?
Below is the script for the button (which has an instance
name). Does anything change with the actionscript in CS3?
Thanks for any advise!
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay("s1");
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay("s2");
on (release) {
_root.Play();

That's it! It works fine again. Thanks a lot, you made my
night!

I have just rented a film and clicked the menu button instead of pause. When I go back to the film to rent again it says I have already rented this go to settings and check for downloads. But there is no download option in settings?

It does... Apple TV has a problem with the assignment to the itunes account after updating. Restore to factory settings or unlog and news login to the itunes store helps to see the rented/downloaded film(s).

My Firefox 8 Menu button doesn't work and neither does the right click in the firefox window

It seems that all the drop down buttons in the browser, including the bookmarks dropdown menu in the toolbar and the main menu button (firefox button), no longer work. This happened after i upgraded to firefox 8. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times while also deleting user preferences and stuff but that doesnt work. But everything seems to work in safe mode properly. So i disabled all my addons in the normal mode but it still doesn't solve the problem. My right-click doesnt work anywhere in the browser window either. And also, although the menus are not showing, it seems that they are still there because if i click in the area that a button would be in the function activates, this is how i was able to disable the addons.

Perhaps, it's a multi-monitor setup issue. I noticed that the problem happens on my right monitor, but it doesn't happen on my left monitor! I have an nvidia card.

Help please. Menu button won't work.

Ok so my menu button doesn't work. It used to go to the last thing I was at and now it goes all the way back to the first menu, it's a royal pain to have to scroll through everything every time. If anyone can help, it's greatly appreciated.

Mine is doing the same thing!!It's just the stupid menu buttom that is braindead!!! It's driving me crazy, I have also spent the past 2 days trying to figure it out and I can't~!! I am thinking about going to the ipod store today to see if its something they can do to it right away to fix, and if yes I can then let you know if it is possible to fix it by yourself OK?

My 'Menu' button will not work. How can I fix this?

The menu button will not work.
Is there anything I can do myself to fix this problem?
It works occasionally, but mostly does not work.
Thanks

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

No, a Reset is just like rebooting your PC - all your data will still be there. Now, a Restore will wipe your iPod, but you probably won't need to go that far.

The menu button is not working on my iPod Nano

I cannot get back from anywhere. Once I have seleceted a track to play, the menu button does not work so that I cannot get back to all music or to choose other options such as radio. It does not make a click sound. It works occaisionally (once a week). Any ideas? Anyone had this problem before?

Hey Nick Norway,
Thanks for the question. Let’s see if we can isolate your issue further to determine if it is hardware related. Have you attempted to reset your iPod? If not, definitely give that a go:

MENU button doesn't work and iPod won't turn off!!

For some reason, my menu button won't work nor will my iPod turn off when I hold down the play/pause button.
I've reset it, updated it, restored it and nothing is working. I bought it in the States last year so have no idea how the warranty works or where to get it serviced since I don't live near London.
Any help would be appreciated

Ring your local Apple dealer, My older mini done the same thing several times before it just died on me and never turned back on. So if its still covered under warrenty i seriously think you should ring apple and get it serviced to see whats wrong, it could be just a fault with the click wheel
Try letting the battery run completly dead, then put it into a Wall charger or computer USB cable and then move the hold on and off, then try reseting it by pressing the menu and select buttons at the same time.

Hp2311x menu button doesn't work

I have an hp 2311x monitor. I've been using is with a PC with DVI for a couple of years. I hooked it up to a new computer with VGA only. I can't get the menu to display so that I can change it to VGA. The menu button doesn't work. It did briefly one time, but it didn't take my input. How do I get the menu to come up? This is driving me crazy.

The home/menu button has stopped working on my E52...

The home/menu button has stopped working on my E52. Is there a way I can retreive the info on my phone and put it on the memory card or a pc?

Hi EmmaBarham,
Welcome to Nokia Discussions.
Please connect your phone to Nokia Suite, once connected you'll be able to sync your phone's data to your PC.
When you're done syncing the data, I would also advice making a back up via Tools>Back up. This way you can get your phone repaired and simply restore it back onto the phone via Tools > Restore in Nokia Suite once the phone has been fixed.
You can find your nearest Nokia Care Point here. Let me know how you get on!

My lock button no longer works on my ipod touch and now i have all kinds of problems with it freezing and kicking me out of apps. Is there any way to get this fixed and were would i go to get it fixed?

Please Help!!!! I have an ipod touch 4th gen. and since the last update the lock button no longer works, this has caused it to have a lot of problems now like freezing all the time, kicking me out of almost all my apps, some times even when if locks on its own its not locked and buttons with be pushed in my pocket, and this causes the battiery to die fast. I really love my ipod and would like to just get it fix if possible for a reasonable about of money. Anyone know of a place I can get it fixed in Ft Lauderdale Fl area or is there something I can do?

Have you tried:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be 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.
- 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
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price:

A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

Code errors could explain the problem. You're missing a closing </div> tag for container.
