why wont my ipod switch off?

[lou33]

i have a nano, i have charged it up but it wont switch off, anyone know why?

i think they dont switch off.

if you dont touch it for a minute or two it just goes on stand by.

Has it crashed?

Does this help?

They don't. If you press and hold the play/pause it puts it to sleep.

is the slide switch off or on?

uh, not sure - will ask dh because I think min e did that once...

yeh it wasnt doing it when i pushed the button tho, just running down, seems to have been fixed now tho

v odd it was, been trying for about an hour

attila i already tried that but thanks

dh just said something about re setting it, you need the instruction booklet

dont have that, exbf gave it to me before he emigrated, so i only have the ipod

is there a help line or anything online to assist ?

Ours does this sometimes. Normally if let to run right downor something.

Does it have an error message on it?

You need to follow the instructions on the apple website. It involves reinstalling the software sometimes - don't worry you don't have to put all your CDs back onto it though, it keeps them.

it seems ok now, not sure why it went all booloo on me, thanks tho guys

toggle the hold switch once or twice and then hold the middle button and play together for 6 seconds to reset if it happens again

why the hell is this in relationships when i put it in chat?

i mean i know i love my ipod but even so....

Ha, ha - I thought it was in relationships on purpose - I'm certainly emotionally attached to mine!!

lol i wish i had been so intentionally amusing

I was going to say i got dh ipod to turn off by accidently putting it the washing machine(it was in his fleece jacket pocket). The only problem is that it has never worked since.

lol think i might not try that if you dont mind !

I wouldn't he was not happy with me as the same week i knocked a cup of tea in to his newish (6month old) laptop that didn't work again either

lol is he annoying you a lot atm?

No i'm just being my usual accident prone self.

remind me to hide everything if you ever visit me!
