Re: my ipod photo won't turn off!
alright guys, i've tried EVERYONE's suggestions, and i'm getting pretty pissed off at my stupid ipod. i've tried:
toggling the hold switch - didnt work.
resetting it multiple times (holding down the menu and circle keys) -i've tried this about 20 times ugh, didnt' work
playing a song, pausing, and then trying to turn it off - didnt work.
plugging it into my pc and trying there - didnt work.
resetting, going to a menu, plugging in headphones, and going back to main menu to shut it off - didnt work.
please please, if anyone has any other ideas, let me know! thanks. |

My Ipod (Ipod classic, 30mGB) want trun off even after resetting and reformatting. Everytime I trun it off the screen will go blank and then in a sadowed picture in the screen is a green battery with a plug in the middle. The ipod works fine when in use but when I go to turn it off it does this and will stay like that untill it runs out of power and then I have to recharge it all over again. CAN ANYONE HELP |

My wifes has the same problem, but here's the trick I use to turn it off:
Start playing a song. Pause it. Then press play again for a few seconds, it turns off. |

Ipod discussion belongs in the ATM foum.
This is as per MODERATOR INSTRUCTIONS.
Don't blame me. I don't make the rules. I am just reporting them.
this was a big enough issue I was banned for a week because I violated that rule. |

Sometimes if the battery on an Ipod is overcharged it will cause this problem. Just let the thing run and it will discharge the battery enough for you to shut is down. In your efforts to shut it down the battery was ran down enough to let the CPU shut it down.

I'm currently having problems turning off my iPod Nano. I've tried resetting it (holding down Menu and the middle button), but that doesn't help. I've even tried restoring it to its factory settings. That doesn't help either. It's a first generation iPod Nano, so it's a year or two old.
Are there any other solutions?  |

my ipod nano won't turn off!
I've tried EvERY possible solution..mine will not register on my computer in i-tunes any more. So when ever i try that and give up i take my i-pod off and it wont get (do not disconnect) off it's screen. Then i get that to turn off eventually. My i-pod still works but im basically screwed because it will not Go Off so my battery just dies.  Once i got it to reset after it crashed for a couple of months put the music on and lost it all when i reset it!!
grrr...i'm about to give up on it.
Anyone have advice that will work? |

There are at least two diff probs here. 1) Ipod is hung and won't respond to turn off signal (pressing bottom of wheel) at all. This happens sometimes when, for example, your ipod is connected to a docking device and you turn it off while pressing bottom of wheel wheel - then you immediately unplug it the ipod, which lights it up again -- sometimes it will won't then respnod to a a shut off signal by pressing bottom of wheel. This prob has been recurring on opds for years and can be fixed with a reset.
2) When you press the bottom of the wheel, the ipod turns off for about a half second or so and lights right back up again. This prob has an unknown cause and is not fixed by a reset. If you restore, the prob will be fixed UNTIL you reload you music files onto the Ipod - then the prob automatically returns. Some suspect this prob has to do with a file problem and ipod's inability to appropriately deal with the file problem. |
