Hi Jackie -I held the combination for 10 seconds and let go, and then connected it back to my laptop as I wasn't sure of battery status, and Voice Over came up talking after about 20 seconds, it might have been a bit longer, wasn't counting, but it works, and like I said, just holding the 2 buttons to 10 seconds appears to be long enough -

Hi Alex To be on the safe side, hold for approximately two minutes. That was Apple's advice when I needed to do it to my Nano. It sure as hell seems a long time when you are hoping to goodness it works at the end of the day.

Unfortunately however, there's no audible indication to let you know when you've held the buttons for long enough.

My Touch is back in dialogue with me. Much relieved - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairnsplace@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2011 9:05 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: More on my IPod Touch problemHi Andy It has probably locked up, not actually died. If this is so, you would need to have it reset. My Nano fifth generation occasionally does this for no apparent reason. When it does, I have to do a combination of the wheel and reset it. The iPod Touch would have a different combination seeing that it has no wheel. I rang Apple and they told me how to do this, so it might be worth your while contacting them and choosing technical support from the spoken menu when they answer. I found them very helpful to be honest. Ring 0800 0480408.

Like I say, I'm doing this from within Andy's IPod, under devices from within Itunes, so not playing the tracks from the Itunes Library, but from the play list on the Pod. I still don't know why the Pod appears to be dead, I've had eyes on it, and been told there is nothing on screen, and pressing the power button, volume up and down buttons, and home button, makes no difference! - Andy ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
