Answer 3

It's happened to me too.

If it's a Nano or a Classic, hold the Center button and Menu button for around 8 seconds. If it's an iPod Touch or iPhone, hold the Home button and the sleep/off button for 8 seconds. If it's an iPod Shuffle, turn it off for 5 seconds and turn it back on (make sure it isn't connected to the computer).

If none of that works, contact Apple if your iPod is still in warranty. If not, you'll have to pay to get it fixed, either at an Apple store or send it in to Apple.

Answer 4

My iPod freezes occasionally for various reasons.  Did you try resetting it?  Toggle (move it back and forth) the "hold" button.  Make sure you leave it in the "unlocked" position, then press the menu and center button down simultaneously for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.

Answer 5

that is what happpened to mine, you have to toggle the hold key then, press the center button and the play/pause button at the same time and it should restart.  

Answer 6

yes. its happen to me many times. unplug the ipod, then press and hold the menu button and the center button until the screen goes black. be sure that the ipod is not on hold. when it restarts the apple should show up. well there ya go hope it works for u  

Answer 7

Either let it die, or hold down play and menu at the same time.

Answer 8

That happened on my Nano where the computer wouldn't recognize it even after restarting the iPod and fully charging it. The solution for me was as easy as installing the lastest version of iTunes.
