Resetting an iPod Nano is similar to how you would do it for an iPod Classic:Ģ. Reset an iPod Nano (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th Generation) For the iPod Nano 7th generation, shown below, you have to press Sleep/Wake button and the Home button until the screen goes black. To reset the 6th generation iPod Nano, you have to hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button at the same time for at least 8 seconds. Let’s start off with the 6th generation iPod Nano, which is shown below: Reset an iPod Nano (6th & 7th Generation)įor the newer models of the iPod Nano, the process is slightly different. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn’t set to go to sleep.

If the above mentioned steps do not work, then you can try connecting your iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect the iPod to your computer.

Also be sure that you are pressing the Menu button towards the outside of the click wheel, not near the center. Then make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel.

If you are having problems resetting the iPod, go ahead and set it on a flat surface.

Now press and hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears, which may take about 6 to 10 seconds. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)Ģ.

Then simply press the Sleep/Wake button again for a few seconds to turn it back on.Īnother thing to note is that this is the same procedure for resetting an iPhone or an iPad also. Keep holding the two buttons and then the iPod Touch will turn off completely. Note that you might first see the “Slide to Turn Off” option appear on the screen, but that’s ok.
