Hey guys new here, have a quick question. I have a 3rd generation iPod referbished never used (whatever that means). I got it for christmas, used it for about 3 weeks or so, its half full of music. I added music the first time then played it for 3 weeks then went to add about 10 more alblums and thats when the problems started . Right after i d loaded the music on the pod i tried to make a playlist as soon as the playlist was made the ipod just shut off with 2 bars of battery life. I then got it back on and it said it was full battery life. After that it started shutting off regularly, getting hot and making an odd noise inside the ipod. Now i can't even get it to play music, the apple sign appears as i turn it on but then shuts off, i've tried to charge it to, still didn't work.

So the problem is i can't get it to come on completly, it gets hot and makes an odd noise. Any advice would be greatly appriciated, Thank You.

Refurbished iPods come with a warranty, right? Use it. Sorry, but it sounds like it's toast.
