Problem for Apple iPod Nano 2GB (Silver) (2 GB 500 Songs) MP3 Player

Won't switch off




By galhar on Aug 29, 2007

Hi - usually I turn my iPod off by holding down the pause key. This now won't work and it is permanantly 'on'. I need to be able to turn it off for flights etc. Anyone help?

- Thanks - yes it is definitely not on Hold (no red showing). The model I have is nano (silver)2GB.
Nothing happens when I press and hold the play/pause button (this used to switch it off). Now that I can't turn it off, the battery doesn't last long!

- thank you, I reset it with the menu and centre buttons and got the 'apple' logo. It then came back on and still won't turn off. I will try using iTunes when I get home to see if that helps. Thanks

- Thank you - I have reset this and it has switched off!

Is it showing the "charged" screen with the backlight off?
Because I have this problem, and it drains the battery, and never fully turns off.

Firstly make sure you don't have "Hold" showing red, if it is you have disabled your iPods keys.
Secondly, can you confirm that the model you have posted this under is correct as different generations of iPod switch on and off with different keys.

- Use the iTunes 'repair' or 'Reset' option to reset the iPods firmware, this will wipe everything off the iPod but it should be backed up by syncing with iTunes and that should happen automatically.

- also, you can reset your nano by holding down the menu and center buttons for 6 seconds
