Elway Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 ...and now it's stuck on the "connected ejct before disconnecting" screen. i pushed down the menu and select button several times and toggled as well, but nothing works. i let the battery run down and when i tried various places to plug it in, the "connected screen" just comes on. my computer recognizes it, but itunes won't so i can't restore it. what the hell do i do now?

Black Rose Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 How old is it? And more importantly which generation is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Rose Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Have you tried holding down the menu and play buttons at the same time to try and force a reboot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanif94 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 ^That works! I didn't know about it until some friends told me to do that! My ipod nano is 2 years old too and sometimes it happens the same to me :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 The only downsize of forcing a reboot is that you lose everything on the iPod, although as it's a nano it shouldn't take that long to put the music back on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanif94 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I didn't lose any of my music when I did that a few weeks ago!! Now I won't do that again, because my music was on my older computer and it doesn't work anymore so I lost everything, so if I lose what I have on my ipod i'll lose 90% of my music. iTunes kinda sucks in that way, because I can't transfer the music on my ipod to my computer :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
