for no aparent reason when i press play (on any song) it just skips to the next track
and then the next one - until it skip right to the end of the album without playing any music
i tried connecting it to my PC to update it but the "update Ipod" icon is greyed out and i am unable to click on it
it was working fine yesterday
can anyone help?
check out the ipod FAQ troubleshoot on their website. That should help.
My ipod is messed up as well. Any time i try and use it, the low battery thing comes up. This after having it fully charged. I heard there was a law suit or something againt apple right now.. anyone know about it??
Shit man I dunno. If my ipod messed up that would cause some serious problems

umm there is a way to reset your ipod, i believe you hold the pause and play button at the same time..that should work but you might have to upload all the songs and playlists you have back onto your pod
Definately sounds like you need to reset your i-pod. Read the instruction book and it will tell you how to do this.
I also find that when I can't update my i-pod, it is due to the fact that I am using a different computer than when i set up the i-pod.
I have had an I-pod, for over 3 years and never had even a hint of a problem. i could not live without it.
if i reset my ipod will i lose all my songs??
i didnt have enough free space to keep them on my hardrive so had to delete them all
by the way the play and pause are on the same button
I think there are two levels of reset. You can reset it such that it kind of just gets your software working and running again and then there is the complete reset, where you will lose all the songs. I am not sure though and you need to read the manual. You can send a question to I-pod and they will answer.
Why in the world would you put songs on your I-pod and not save them on your computer? You can't get songs off your I-pod and transfer them to a computer.

Some people (like moi) use the iPod as a secondary harddrive so I just copy songs onto the iPod and erase the same on my pc hd.Quote:

Good luck, bro.
I love my Ipod Mini dearly, but it crashes more or less every 2 weeks...
A simple reset and recharge fixes that
