If your iPod ever acts up and appears frozen, try resetting it. The steps of resetting are simple enough to follow, yet it’s surprising how many people remain unaware of this option.

To reset your iPod:

Toggle the Hold switch on, then off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)

Press down the Play/Pause buttons until the Apple logo shows up (6Ð10 seconds). There’s a chance you might need to repeat this step.

If taking these two steps doesn’t do the trick, try using one finger from one hand to press the Center button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Menu button. If you’re still out of luck, you might need to send the iPod back to Apple for service. Bummer. (I know; I’ve been there.)
