I have nothing else to blog about…<\/p>\n

This morning I plugged my iPod in my computer to update it… but unfortunately my iTunes froze. My iPod was stuck on the “Do Not Disconnect” screen, even after I turned off my computer. I was worried that my iPod would screwed up by this incident, but fortunately there is a way to restart a frozen iPod (though if bad sectors have already been written on the hard drive due to an unsafe disconnect or something, restarting probably won’t help much with that).<\/p>\n

To restart the iPod:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Turn the “Hold” on then off somewhat quickly.<\/li>\n
  2. Hold the “Menu” button and the “select” button (middle button) down for 5 to 10 seconds.<\/li>\n
  3. The iPod should restart and the Apple logo should be displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The process saved me this morning.<\/p>\n

    So… make sure your iTunes is responding nicely before you plug in your iPod!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
