Ipod troubles

[Crusher X]

About a month ago, I was given a 40gig Ipod. It's worked like a champ, but I've run into a problem that maybe some other Ipod owners might help me with.

The click wheel on my Ipod does not move the display. The buttons are still functional, but when I spin my finger around the wheel, the volume does not move, nor does the highlighted text in the window move to change settings.

I haven't gotten it wet. It's in a protective skin covering. I haven't dropped it. I still plays the songs, but I can't move the highlighted text from "shuffle songs". I can't change the volume.

Any ideas?

I have the reciept from Circuit City. Will they take it back? Can I take it to any Circuit City or does it have to be the one it was bought from?

Thanks in advance.

odd, I would assume the store you bought it at would do a swap or you could leverage your iPod warranty

here are two sites with forums that are great for answering iPod issues.

Apple

If your in Austin go to the Apple Store in Barton Creek mall, they will swap it out for you.

Thanks to all you guys who replied. I think I figured out my problem. It was actually by accident.

I toggled my "hold" switch back and forth a few times. Well, when I retried the click wheel, it worked!!!

I knew that the "hold" switch wasn't on because the buttons were working (menu, play, center button, etc.)

So, I guess I'll keep on truckin....

Thanks for the links, though. They will come in handy in the future.


I wonder if I'm qualified to be an "Apple Genius" now??
