I finally took the advice from a site and plugged it into the power source, nothing happened right away. Finally after a min or so the ipod started working.. Very wierd... I would try this first before doing a software reset! My ipod was frozen, it was stuck on the main menu and would not do a thing.

I own just about every model made including the very first one the 1st generation 5 GB and they rarely freeze. If this is happening to you a lot. I suggest a software restore and reloading your tracks or a visit to the Apple Store Genius. Happy New Year Stephen Antonucci Actually, frozen iPods are rare for most users.

I have too many songs to go through erasing it. Also, WHY isn't this software issue fixed? Hello! It's the year 2006. It takes 3-4 hours before the battery finally turns the iPod off and then I turn it on and it's fine. TIP: Never trust technology to be your DJ. Only DJ equipment and a professional DJ can continue doing that job! : ) I tried to “unfreeze” my fifth generation iPod with your suggestions and it never worked.

I had tried other sites, but noone else had the suggestion to put it on a flat surface to restart it. It worked immediately. Thanks!

How do I make it to work. I was also trying to save a file at the same time on the shuffle. My ipod shuffle did not respond, while I was charging it, when my computer crashed.
