My brand new 7th gen. iPod Nano has gone COMPLETELY dead

i'm going to ask you to try something I just did to fix a maybe simular problem that worked..... but I don't know why yet........make sure your iPod in plugged into your computer (mine is a Mac) and iTunes is turned on. My iPod was also "dead" but had been plugged into my computer for a couple of hours (but not lit up in any way). Then (in desperation) I held down all the buttons, the on/off (on top right), the small Home botton at the bottom of the face, and the volume/pause buttons (left side). For whatever reasons my iPod came back to life in a needs restoring mode ....and asked me to restore it in the itunes like "new' iPod connected mode. Since I have a Mac I also had to give permission to do a download by entering my computer password. If you have to do the same have that password ready. Then it did a restore software download. Everything previously on the iPod was erased and had to be re-synced, but I was just thankful to get it up and restored again.

Give this a shot and I hope it works for you.....but why? I don't know yet, I need more questions answered.
