my ipod touch is froze and wont turn off. any ideas?

have you tried hard reseting it? hold down the home and power button together for 8 seconds, if that doesnt work connect it to your itunes and restore your ipod

hold both the power and home buttons for up to 30sec's or till u c the apple logo and let go of both buttons

If the reset does not work. let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour, try the reset and connect to computer and restore if necessary.

Just had this similiar issue with my iPod. Simple steps found through the Apple Support Website. Follow this link:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320, or follow instructions listed below to reset a frozen iPod nano/classic/color display/click-wheel, etc.:

1) Toggle the Hold switch on and then off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again)

2) Press and hold the Menu and center buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 8 seconds. This step may need to be repeated. (*sidenote...I also found that the iPod would not respond/reset when it was connected to my computer. It just continued to state that it was connected and needed to be ejected before disconnecting. I pulled the link cable out of the frozen iPod and followed the above steps and it reset normally.)

Hope this helps...
