Absolute Beginner's Guide to iPod and iTunes

tip

You can reset an iPod's contrast to the default setting by pressing and holding the Menu button for about 4 seconds.

You can configure your iPod to turn itself off automatically after a specific period of time passes. To do this, use the following steps:

1.

Select Main menu, Extras, Clock, Sleep Timer. You'll see the Sleep menu, which consists of a list of sleep time periods, from Off (meaning that the Sleep Timer is turned off) to 120 Minutes (meaning that the iPod will shut off in 2 hours).

2.

Select the Sleep Timer setting you want by highlighting it and pressing the Select button.

When you have the Sleep Timer on and view the Now Playing screen, the current amount of time until the iPod sleeps is shown at the top of the screen (see Figure 7.10). When the counter reaches zero, the iPod will turn itself off. This happens regardless of whether you happen to be listening to music at the time. So, if your iPod suddenly shuts off and you don't first see a battery low warning, this is likely the reason.

Figure 7.10. This iPod will turn itself off in 29 minutes.
