iPod touch giving you random problems? Have you noticed a lag developing in its performance? You probably need to reset it. You next question is probably something along the lines of, “Will I lose everything when I do it?” That was my first question, anyway. The answer is no. This is a basic step equivalent to restarting your computer. A reset should always be your first troubleshooting step for your iPod Touch.

Most people think that simply holding the Sleep/Wake button on the top of their touch until the power off slider appears, then sliding it to shut it down is the same as a reset. It is not. This only puts your iPod Touch into sleep mode. It is a low power consumption state only. All of your settings and background apps are restored upon wake-up. After a while, installing and removing apps; starting and closing apps; and adjusting and readjusting settings will take a toll on your iPod Touch’s memory and performance. Resetting it will alleviate these problems.

To reset your iPod Touch, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons simultaneously until the display goes black and the Apple logo reappears. Once you see the Apple logo, you can release both buttons. It will take a few seconds to a minute for your iPod touch to completely start.

That is it! You have successfully restarted your iPod touch. It is generally a good idea to reset your iPod touch once a week, depending on the level of use. Enjoy!
