I haven't used the iPod in a while... (I know.. GASP!) But now it doesn't turn on. It's probably broken or the battery's gone. How do I fix it? Or where can I fix it? Could I just like take it to a Best Buy or something, and get them to fix it?

Yeah, I'm dumb.. pinch.gif

Plug it into the wall for a few hours and see if it will turn on. If not, reset by following instructions at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705 while plugged in still

It fell quite a bit when I used it, but it worked the last time I used it. Would that have broken it? My friend's trying to fix it now, but I'll try the resetting tomorrow. Thanks!

Is there anything else I could try?

Just keep it plugged in, and keep trying to reset it by holding down the 2 buttons (different buttons depending on what kind it is).
