[QUOTE="khoikn, post: 1006271, member: 145324"] So, over the past 5-6 months, I think I have had a total of 5 clickwheel freezes. I decided to record my solution every time I managed to fix it. This is what I have come up with: {Solution 1} -Leave iPod alone for about 2 days. -Turn the hold switch off and on, but every time you press the hold switch off you should click the center button. -Repeat for about 5-15 minutes {Solution 2} -Restore iPod but DON'T sync any songs onto it. -Do the hold on and off technique. {Solution 3} -Delete iTunes and download the installer. -Restart your computer. -Install iTunes. -Basically do solution 2 after. {Solution 4} *I am going to be honest with you, this solution is the weirdest. -Delete iTunes and download the installer -Restart your computer -Install iTunes -Restore iPod, DON'T sync anything! -Leave the iPod there for about 8 hours. -Hit it on the table gently twice. -Now, if your using a 4G or 5G nano, remove the covers for the bottom and top. (Using a flathead screwdriver.) -Put your mouth over where the headphone jack is and blow really hard(to get any dust out, try to make sure that your mouth is cleared of spit first.) -Switch to the top, and suck as hard as you can. -Go back to headphone jack and suck as hard as you can. -Go to the top and blow as hard as you can. -Do the hold off on method once again. I know that the 4th solution sounds really weird, but it worked for me twice now. So it must mean something. I am using an iPod Nano 4th Generation. [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
