On 8/10/2005 I posted a solution that I found for my iPod when it froze up. Since then I have had several people email me comments thanking me for the entry. Well today I received an email from a guy named Wil. He told me that when his iPod froze up he searched for it on the internet and Scandalous blog (yours truly) was the first site to pop up. I thought that was pretty cool and confirmed it for myself. Check it out here or go to Yahoo! and search for "iPod froze up".

Ok so I am out jogging and when my iPod 20gb attempted to switch songs it just froze up. The backlight stayed on but none of the buttons would work. My first thought was "When did Microsoft purchase Apple?" My second thought was what do I do now. So I got back home and searched for an answer on the internet. Most people were saying you would have to just let the battery die and then turn it back on. Then I found out that you can hold down the Menu and Center buttons for a few seconds and it will reboot the iPod. Well it worked so all is good again in my world. So I thought I would let you guys know since most of my friends have iPod's.
