    Hi guys!

    I just bought an iPod 30g, took it out of its box, pressed play, and every other buttons, and nothing is working. The screen stay black. I tryed different buttons combos to restart it or whatever, but, nothing.

    Can anyone help me please?

    Thank you!

    Did you charge it? I'm pretty sure the iPod's need to be charged before they can be used when they're brand new. If that's not it.. I have no idea.. You said all the troubleshooting things didn't work from the website?? If so, I have no idea.

    Best of luck.

    Thanks guys.

    I'll plug it for tonight, and tomorrow morning, I'll check it out.
    If it doesn't work...well, I'll return it to the shop.

    Thank you again.

    Leave it full charging and when it say is done, you could check it out.

    If not report it to the shop xD!

    Everything that you've seen is an illusion...
    It should be charged when you bought it already.. Just saying, within the past my two ipods I eventually remember where fully charged.

    Hi.

    Well, this freakin' iPod doesn't work. I waited for 8 hours of charging, and...nothing.

    Oh well, I'll go get another one.

    Thanks for your time guys!

    I'm pretty sure your hold button was on, when you first purchase your Ipod, as long as it is brand new, it should be fully charged.
    You should NOT have to charge it when you first purchase it, otherwise you have a problem.
