My Ipod Classics's buttons won't respond, scroller works fine though. Help?

Question

Yeah basically I was listening to a song, I rated it 5 stars then I paused it, and after that the buttons wouldn't work, but the scroller works fine.

I can't turn it off or go back to the main menu. Please help, cause it's passed my warranty.

p.s.How much does it cost to get an Ipod fixed?

Answer 1

you can do what he said but most people just put the i pod in the fridge it should help..... if not then throw it out.

Answer 2

call the apple store.

Answer 3

did you try to restore it? Hold down the middle and the upper buttons

if it still doesnt work, then slam it on a book several times. I'm serious, the same thing happened to my old ipod too. I got mad and started slamming it on my book and it started working again. The problem is with the hard drive. It would cost you $150 to get the hard drive fixed.  

Answer 4

well it won't be cheap to get it fixed but you could try taking the batteries out and put them back in or try changing over the batteries  

Answer 5

Try resetting it, or just try to hook it back up to the computer, it sometimes does wonders.

Answer 6

that's not a typical freeze, but try holding the menu button w/ the center button. hold down for five seconds. i have the classic and it freezes all the time.

also my bro has the iPod touch and it was covered for them to fix it when it broke under the one year warranty or whatevs but it cost THIRTY dollars just for shipping. howev, it went to china and came back within a week.

Answer 7

try restarting your ipod , that's what i do if my ipod freezes or stops responding and such , i have the nano and I'm not sure if its the same for yours but the restart on mine is you hold the menu and center button for about 6 seconds and that should help but if it dosent then sorry & good luck :)

Answer 8

set it in rice for a few days.

trust me, it will be fine.
