    Yeah I have an iPod Mini, and I had it since...August. And now all of the sudden it froze. I was able to press the middle button from screen to screen but couldn't move up and down. Whenever I played the musicit would just skip from song to song. And now it's completely frozen. It started to do it after I stopped jumping on my sisters mini trampoline, so it's not like I fell on it or anything. I tried charging it and all that stuff. So anyone know how to fix it?

    Umm, Looks like physical damage.. Do you have warranty on it? I don't think it's fixable, I would just use a warranty plan..

    I don't think it's the click wheel..How can you get a new one of those without tearing the whole iPod apart :|..

    Yeah, and second hand I would get an iPod Nano..But you kind of having a chance of cracking it in half if you do a lot of horse play ;) .

    When he does find it its too big and he doesnt have another screwdriver in the same size and then he will be like

    That sounds like physical damage but you could try the reset thing. The directions are in the manual.
    It worked for me when my ipod video froze up.

    Click the little reset button on the side of it :D

    Thats what I did for mine. But I got a creative. But if there is a reset button, go get a paperclip, unbend it, and poke the reset button :D
