What kind of iPod? If it has the buttons accross the top, toggle the hold (so it is in the un-held position), and hold menu and play/pause at the same time, until it resets.
If it's a tiltwheel (4g+), toggle the hold, and hold the center button and play/pause (i think it's play/pause, it may be menu) until it resets. 9/27/2005 2:19:42 PM |

i just had to reset my ipod mini this mornin and reset it
toggle hold
toggle hold off
then hold menu/play til it powers off, then itll power on to the apple logo
it MIGHT have to firmware flash itself (plug it into the walljack) 9/27/2005 2:21:43 PM |

have you tried the microwave trick? if you put it in the microwave for about a minute and a half on 30% (no more than 30%!!) it'll purge the firmware and you won't have that problem anymore 9/27/2005 5:07:27 PM |

no, you dumbass. you are supposed to use the defrost option on the microwave getting the weight of the ipod off the website.9/27/2005 7:13:52 PM |

defrost only, don't let them tell you this 30% crap. it's defrost . 9/28/2005 3:39:52 PM |

the toaster oven trick is alot faster, and you dont need to know the weight. just put it in till its a golden brown with a flakey outer crust. 9/28/2005 4:02:00 PM |

having a firmware is not the problem, but keeping the iPod off the ground is. 9/28/2005 8:36:02 PM |
