Here I'm refering to the hardware.<br /><br />Read this quote from the Edinburgh, Scotland Herald as to how important iPod is to one of their young actors in Great Britain:<br /><br />"<strong>Music - </strong>The best-value thing I have ever bought is an iPod because I spend a lot of time living away from home.<br />I don't think they are that expensive, considering you can take all your music with you. I buy a few CDs every now and then so I do tend to spend money on music. It's usually the latest stuff from the album chart. The last album I bought was The Kooks and in my car at the moment I have The Kaiser Chiefs, Franz Ferdinand and Johnny Cash."<br /><br /><strong>BAM</strong> <strong>- </strong>It's the storage size and ease of use that makes an iPod such a useful little tool.<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/apple" rel="tag">apple</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/nano" rel="tag">nano</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ipod" rel="tag">ipod</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/movies" rel="tag">movies</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792730583308159979.post-3871770082307772672007-04-23T22:17:00.000-07:002007-04-23T22:52:25.680-07:00So you didn't do anything "wrong", yet your iPod is sitting there with a dark screen (with the evil "apple shadow" logo mocking you) or it's frozen on the last thing you were trying to do.<br /><br />Well, here's the easy way to get back to happy iPodding again:<br /><br />First of all, make sure the "hold" switch on the top (the oval button that shows a hint of orange when your iPod is on "hold" or locked) is not LOCKED! Slide it so no orange is showing - I've been fooled by this one myself a couple times - even though they show a little "lock" icon on the screen, it can't be seen if your screen is black, eh Apple?<br /><br />Next, you have two choices, depending if you have a "Scroll Wheel" iPod, or "Click Wheel" iPod.<br /><br />SCROLL WHEEL<br /><br />1. Turn the Hold/Pause switch from off to on to off again. (No hold, to hold, to no hold)<br />2. Press and hold the "Menu" and the "Select" buttons for 6-10 seconds until the apple logo<br />appears, or some other sign of life happens. The "Menu" button is the top part of your scroll<br />wheel, and the "Select" button is the round button in the middle of your scroll wheel.<br /><br />CLICK WHEEL<br /><br />1. Turn the Hold/Pause switch from off to on to off again. (No hold, to hold, to no hold)<br />2. Press and hold the "Play/Pause" and the "Menu" buttons for 6-10 seconds until the apple<br />logo appears, or some other sign of life happens.<br /><br />That should do it. You can also try connecting your iPod up to a power source like your computer or a charger if the button tricks fail. Fire up iTunes if you're connecting to a computer, and sometimes that wakes your iPod up!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/apple" rel="tag">apple</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/nano" rel="tag">nano</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/shuffle" rel="tag">shuffle</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/shuttle+wheel" rel="tag">shuttle wheel</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/click+wheel" rel="tag">click wheel</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/reset" rel="tag">reset</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/restart" rel="tag">restart</a>, <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ipod" rel="tag">ipod</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
