Queen of the Airy Fairies

My ipod now works :) What was wrong - the hold button was switched on.

It was the last thing I tried. I hooked it up to the computer. No go. I reset it to the factory settings and the reload my gadzillion files. No go. I got the book ipod for dummies out (of course I should have done this first) and it said the first thing that should be checked is the hold button. Voila!

All is right with the world again!
