Hi guys.

Sorry, I am not too sure where to put this topic in the forum, so thought this would be a good place.

I have an Apple Ipod Min (4GB). Which has been working fine, until now. I last used it a day or two ago and tried turning it on today. With no luck, it doesn't turn on. So, thinking it might just be flat, I plugged in the USB cable and a few seconds later a message pops up in Windows Vista saying USB Device not known. (Not regonised). So, in case it was just Vista playing up, I restarted the PC and booted into Windows XP Professional.

Still no go. Nothing happens on the ipod, no lights, nothing.

Is there anything I can do? Is it dead? :( Could it just be a USB cable fault?

Any advice would be great, thanks

(P.S if this is in wrong section, please move)
 
I don't have a mains charger. :(

Would leaving it plugged into the PC all night help?

But battery was fine a few days ago..I think..:(
 
Nevermind, all working again.

A simple reset did the trick. (I was using the wrong buttons, so check Apple's web site and now all good again!:D) odd though..
