Rebooting an iPod Nano

by Jacob on April 6, 2007, under Technical

iPod NanoI was listening to music today when all of a sudden my iPod Nano froze up in the middle of the song, with the display lit.  Pushing any of the normal buttons wouldn’t un-freeze it.  Even waiting for a few minutes, the display stayed lit and it still wouldn’t do anything.

I did a little bit of Google searching, and I found a way to restart the device.  Press and hold down the Menu and Middle buttons (in that order) for about 10 seconds and the iPod will restart.  All the music remains intact, and it seems fairly safe.  The only thing I lost was my place in my randomly shuffled playlist.
