iPod Touch Frozen
StewartF
16-07-2008
The screen on my iPod Touch has frozen. I was in the middle of syncing it and my laptop crashed - now the screen is stuck with the 'Sync in Progress' message.

Touching the screen, home or on/off button does nothing. The screen is frozen. I've tried connecting it to the laptop again but I keep getting a message telling me the USB device is not recognised.

Any ideas on how to fix the problem?

My son has the i-pod nano and according to him, on that you hold the middle button and the top button in together for about 10 seconds.
It may be the same on the touch ?

Holding the on/off button down for a few seconds should/might force it to shut down.

edit....

from the apple site

If iPod touch won't turn on, or if the display freezes or doesn't respond

iPod touch may need charging. See "Charging the Battery" in the iPod touch Features Guide. Press and hold the Home button for at least six seconds, until the application you were using quits.

If that doesn't work, turn off iPod touch and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPod touch for a few seconds until a red slider appears, and then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

If that doesn't work, reset iPod touch. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
