hold down the middle button and the play mutton at the same time for like 10-20 seconds, it usually resets it and then it works. if that doesn't work, hold down the middle and menu button, that does something else to reset it. usually one of those 2 key combo's works.

Try throwing it out, that usually fixes the problem.

lol no.

call apple.

once they fix it, call creative.

once they answer, buy a zen vision of some sort.

one done, profit in your superiority complex because you chose not to conform to the "popular" products on the market.

Well, first flip the lock button on and the off then try the middle and play button, you may have to do this more than once. If this doesn't work plug your usb chord into you computer and then into your ipod, push the play button and shine a light on the screen so you can see if some dark gray text has shown up that says something to the effect of ipod battery is to low please wait. If this doesn't show up try to recover your ipod through itunes but you can't do this if you ipod isn't showing up on your computer so if you can't get you ipod to show up you will have to call apple and see if they will fix/replace it for you. Your problem may be that the docking port on the bottom is messed up, my sister had that happen to her ipod nano and they fixed for her but we had to send it in which meant we had to pay shipping and she had to be without her ipod for a week.


___EDIT___
If you have an apple store nearby, go there first especially if your ipod has no special engraving. Because if they can't get it to work, sometimes they will just go in back and grab you a new ipod at no cost to you.

Brought mine in. Didn't turn on. They played with it for like 5 seconds.

They were then like

"Here, I am giving you a new one." I was like "....cool"
Que pasa?
