My friend had the same problem, I solved it by pushing the USB plug in only half any and it started up again; good luck.

Let the Ipod dry out. I washed my son's Ipod, left it in a cabinet for a few months. We took it out and it works perfectly! I heard the same thing with cell phones. The key is not to attach it to electricity too soon. Let it dry out.

i just started an ipod repair company because i have been fixing ipods for a long time ... when your ipod goes through the wash ... its about a 30% chance of survival ... but my website offers free diagnostic, shipping and labor... so pretty much you buy the part/s if you want to fix it ... my website is rhousemedia.com

Daily Horoscope for June 3

Virgo

Life catches you unawares today but for once you don't really mind. A friend is likely to ring up with an exciting suggestion or you could receive a spur of the moment invitation that's too good to refuse. An interesting encounter is also on the cards, especially when you're brought together through unusual circumstances.
