Re: my ipod photo won't turn off!
Are you holding down the play/pause button? It takes about 3 seconds. If that does not work then you will have to reset it. Hold down the center and menu buttons for about 10 seconds. |

I had the same problem.
Resetting works like a charm.
I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the Bose Sound Dock because I had precisely the same issues. |

| I have the Bose Sound Dock and my ipod has won't turn off either... has anyone with the sound dock had problems with photos disappearing? Sometimes I'll take it out of the dock and all the photos have gone. |

@cable.rogers | I just had the same problem with my ipod, resetting works like a charm. I found that while it wasnt shutting off that the battery drained very fast. But all's well that ends well. |

| I had the same problem, and the reset worked for me as well. I also use a sound station.
Thanks a lot for your help! |

I appreicate the post--I had the same problem with my 30 Photo not turning off--I reset it and it works fine now. I have been using my Ipod with the NEO unit, which plugs into your factory car stereo XM dock and works with your steering wheel controls...its a great thing to have! My ipod goes into pause mode every now and then....still trying to figure out that.. |

I had that same problem where my photo ipod won't turn off. I was also using the bose dock. Your solution (holding the center and menu buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds) worked for me. Thank you very much. |

my ipod wont shut off but plays and works fine. so i figured plugging it into my computer would fix it but, it only charges, it doesnt show up on itunes, no disconnect sign. |
