I made a mistake the other day and could use some help. My girlfriend and I have the same laptop and I plugged my ipod nano into her laptop (the ipod was not formatted for her computer, or the computer did not have the proper software, whatever the correct vernacular is). Now, when I plug in the ipod to my laptop all I got is a charging sign on the screen. It wont work or turn on at all. I do not care about the data/music on the ipod, I just want it to work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I just tried all of that, and still nothing. I am just screwed?

1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
Tip: If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep.

reset the i-pod - the instructions on how to do that are with the literature you got with the i-pod or go look on their website. [[[[seems like most just want quick fixes for the problems they create. you could have done this yourself.]]]]

They beat me to it. You have to reset it and it should be ready to load.
