iPod Reboot

Found this little trick and need to keep this handy. I was driving along I-90 through Spokane and my video iPod got stuck moving between songs (it may not like Primus is all I can figure).

The trick is to toggle the "lock" switch to locked then unlocked and then hold the center and menu buttons simultaneously until the iPod reboots.

I also noticed as I was scrolling through songs that the letter S popped up in the display and I scrolled to the S songs.

After a bit of digging this feature is apparently new and is called "Quick Scroll." It appears that as you apply pressure to the wheel as you scroll that you can scroll through letters of the alphabet. Unfortunately I have one of the rubber guards protecting my iPod from wear and tear and so it is apparently not sensitive enough to pick this up.

There is also a new "search" function in the updated iPod software that let's you search for a song. Accessible from the main menu (or music menu) this seems quite useful.

Guess I'll have some playing to do as I drive to Whitefish, MT tomorrow.
