ipod- sad face

bazzman

sorry to every1 first if this has been asked, but i`m unable to find any info.
when i try to turn on my ipod all that appears is a sad face, and it tells me to go on to the apple website, which doesn`t help either.
have no idea wat happened to it. ie it didn`t fall or anything.
cheers.

Solution

In most cases, the sad iPod icon indicates a hardware issue. If you are able to force iPod into Disk Mode, then it may not be a hardware issue, and you should try to restore your iPod with the latest software.

If you cannot force your iPod into disk mode and restore it, then your iPod is in need of service. Set up an iPod Service Request or make a reservation at the Genius Bar before visiting your local Apple Retail Store. To make a reservation go to www.apple.com/retail, choose an Apple Store location, then click on the "Make a reservation" link.
