Electronic devices always seem to freeze or crash at the worst times, and the iPod is no exception. Put your fears to rest — resetting an iPod is a snap.

Step 1: Make sure your iPod is frozen
Make sure your iPod is really frozen. Check to see if the hold switch is locked or the music is paused.

Step 2: Try recharging the iPod
Recharge your iPod by plugging it into a wall outlet using a power adapter, or connect it to your computer. Sometimes an iPod appears to freeze when the battery is low.

Reset an iPod with a click wheel by sliding the Hold switch between on and off. Then, hold down the Menu button and the center button at the same time for several seconds, and wait for the Apple logo to pop up.

Tip
It may take a couple of tries before your iPod resets.

Step 4: Reset an iPod with a scroll wheel
