Answer 1

You can hold down the middle button and the menu button for a few soconds.  keep holding them down untill the screen goes black and it will restart the ipod; i have to do it all the time.

Answer 2

If you already tried putting the limewire movies on your iPod you probably used an unsupported format which may cause it to freeze. Isn't there a reset button on those stupid things? if not return it and get a new mp3 player from a real company like creative.

Answer 3

Well, when it freezes, you should hold the menu button and the middle button (the button you use to select things), for 5-10 seconds until you see the apple logo

Answer 4

you hold the menu and top button.  It'll reset itself

Answer 6

I've had this problem with the iPod freezing. What you need to do is hold down the middle button and the menu button until it goes off. It might take a second or two and you might need to try one or two times, but it does work, ^_^

Answer 7

when your ipod freezes up press the middle and menu button down for about 5 seconds. an apple will come on your screen and then your ipod will work again. tip:it should be in the manual that came with the ipod.
