I used to encounter major problem with my ipod 3rd generation.
My problem occured when i was updating new ipod firmware with itune on my brother’s notebook, the strange problem occur. (i don't unplug it during update processing but it occur when connection cable still plug-in)
My ipod nano reset itself all the time, during starting process when apple logo appear, it pause at this screen don't continue to it normal process then it turn off itself and start this cycle again and again, can’t do anything with it, i really meant that, CAN'T turn it off and itune can’t detect my ipod (it mean i can't restore to factory setting), can’t see my ipod on both windows exploror and in computer management, may cause software/firmware is not update properly, what i can do is wait this cycle continue until battery run off.
during this i try fix this issue on internet but don’t find any issue like me, But when i try to turn ipod into disk mode, it works ! , itune can detect it and i can restore its firmware from itune menu, HOPE it will useful for anyone who have a problem like me.
I think my problem is one of the worst case, cause i can’t detect my ipod on computer with all any try i can find on internet so if you encounter with any problem on your ipod and losting all your content is not your problem(sure if it can not use, just lost musics, picture or video will become a little problem) i think this may solve most of problem on ipod, try it and HOPE this can help you. If your problem is not fatal like me, you may try other solution before.
