Ipod nano not playing songs, and dying

i have not use my ipod nano for a while. Then yesterday when i tried to use it, it will not turn out, so i thought it run out of battery, so i was charging it. then it says it was in disc mode and do not disconnect. So i followed people's advise to reset it but it will not reset it. Now the apple logo screen comes and then the website to www.apple.com/support will come on.
can anyone tell me why it does this? how do i fix my problem
thanks.

When I go to play a dame in my ipod it says that "this game cannot be launched" I am only using 5 gb total of my ipod so it is not too full. How can I get the ipod to play the games?

i can move through everthing on my ipod, but when i get to the song it just stays a 0 seconds and doesnt play

This all happened yesterday.I went to the screen and when I went to cover flow, I clicked an album I clicked a song to play, all of a sudden, it went back to cover flow and it didn't play the song, not even any song at all. The albums on the cover flow the picture is all blurry. What should I do to fix it?

my ipod nano third generation 4GB first was a black screen and didnt do anything an then i accindently dropped it and it work. A couple of days later i connected it to my dock station and then it stopped working and it was fully charged it just stayed stuck on the same screen.help!

well...

today i returned from school and on my way home,
turned on my ipod but nothing happened. It only had BLACK
screen which is a problem i have never experienced.
what do i do?!!

I turned it off while watching a video. When I went to turn it on, I could hear it clicking but the screen was dark. I turned it off again. It has not turned back on and will not detect by iTunes. It is only a few months old and protected by outer shell and handled very well. Dropped to carpet only once 2 months ago with no damage.

boot my ipod it wont start up

i can still see the songs on the ipod but when i go to push the center button to play the songs they dont play

My ipod nano is not playing songs

i have had 4 of these ipods, all because they keep breaking. i keep trading broken ones in again. i don't know why. all the broken ipods exhibit the same "symptoms." they stop playing songs and videos, but you can still maneuver around the screens, using the buttons and wheel. none of the games are playable, and, if the ipod is reset (a difficult task with this kind), it dies. black screen, no responses, no revival. is it me, or a faulty product? what do i do?

hey my IPOD has the same problem. i can go through the screenc and menus but i cannot play a song, video, game, and i cant shuffle the songs. this is my first IPOD and its the third day after buying it. what should do?

my ipod is not playing songs i think it hanged up. what should i do??

I Only Got It For Christmas Dont Know What To do
HELP! (:

I have this exact same problem...was working fine one minute then died an d all i can do is manouvre round the screens and the songs and videos wont play they stay on 00:00 does this mean this fault cannot be fixed???

My iPod 3rd gen. was working fine then I turned it off and it wouldnt come back on I toggled it and everything and it just wont work. The worst part is that it actually my sister's.

Mine was working great (I got it for Christmas as well), but all of a sudden the games quit working. I'm restoring it to see if that will help....

Songs work fine on pc and previous versions op ipod's but on nano it just stands still on 0:00!

i can't seem to download any file on my ipod nano video using itunes

I've been having the same exact problem! I got my 8GB nano christmas, and then while I had it hooked up to my computer it died; black screen, then white, then it wouldn't respond at all. I returned it for another one, and I was super careful with it, then while when it was hooked up to my friends car, I was flipping through the songs, picked one...and then it wouldn't play. It was stuck on 0.00 time, and it was like that for every song! Also, none of the games work, I get "Unknown Error". I'm starting to think this 3rd generation is faulty...=[

I just got the new iPod nano 3rd generation and it was working fine at first. But now its not working right. The songs won't play and I can't play any games either. This happened before but as soon as I charged it, it worked right again. But now it is fully charged and it's not working! Anybody know why?

every time i try to play a song on my ipod is goes to the screen and right when it gets ready to play nothing plays i tryed to reset it but it didnt work

I got my 8gb iPod Nano this Christmas. I used it the 1st and 2nd day then it froze up on the 3rd day and none of the buttons were responding. When the battery finally died out I turned it back on and charged it for 3-4hrs. It worked fine after that but then I turned it off for a while and when I turned it back on again, it would not play any songs. The buttons are functioning well but it's just not playing any songs.

It seems this problem is very common with these third generation iPod Nano.

I got mine on christmas day. My first ipod and I was so excited. I spent several hours uploading my songs onto iTunes and I listened to it for a while. the battery is not dead but I can manouver the screens.

I tried resetting it. But so far it hasn't worked... I also tried recharging it on the computer but to no avail. Finally i tried to re-sync the songs... but even new ones I've purchased don't play!!!

I had mine for a day then it just went dead... Black screen, wouldnt turn on, i even plugged it into the computer and it wouldnt register it :S

Same here, but when i connect my ipod to my computer then i pull back out the album picture apears for about 10 secs

Same problem as described. Tried resetting it (Via the menu) to factory settings to no avail
