How can I fix my ipod if it will not turn on?

Answer by  Echo (229)

The last time this happened to me it was because I didn't turn it off correctly. Try plugging it back into its charger and attempt using it later.

When this happens, you can either: 1) Turn off your 'Hold' switch and then switch it on normally by pressing the 'PLAY/PAUSE' button on your clickwheel. Or 2) Reset your iPod by pressing the 'MENU' and Center buttons simultaneously for a few seconds (approximately 10 seconds) until the Apple logo appears on your screen. Repeat steps if necessary.

First, toggle the on-off switch a couple of times. Then press and hold the menu and play buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds.

Plug iPod into a wall socket to see if its battery is dead. If it does not turn on manually reset it by holding the menu and center click keys.

You have to reset your ipod. Press the middle button and the top arrow at the same time. Hold both buttons down and wait for 5-10 seconds.

Reset it. Put it on hold, then off hold, then on hold again, then off hold. Then press and hold the center and menu button at the same time.
