My Ipod nano won't turn on ...

I was just transfering files to my rockboxed nano, i stoped it, and unplugged it from the USB adapter. But now it won't turn on. It is about 6 months old, so i can try to take it to Apple, but there are 2 problems: i bought it in USA, and what if they find out it was rockboxed? Ideas?

Well, if it won't turn on they probably won't find out it's been rockboxed! From anecdotal evidence, they seem happy to just replace it without looking too carefully at it, and even if they do find it's had rockbox on they'll still fix it. I can't guarantee it, of course!

Check out this page on Apple's support site:

It seems to cover almost everything you can do yourself to try and recover your iPod.

THANKS! It turned on! 

Have you try to reset the player?

Yes, is what i did. Somehow, i was pressing play instead of menu, while trying to reset it

I *hate* this aspect of the Nano.  It's far too easy to trip it up and require a subsequent reset...I think it will be my first and last flash player from Apple for this and other reasons I won't bother mentioning in this thread.
