The iPod is a personal music player. Sometimes an iPod needs to be reset due to freezing or other issues where the iPod does not function properly. The way to reset an iPod depends on the type of wheel installed on the iPod. IPods have either a click wheel, scroll wheel, touch wheel, or a dock connector. The click wheel has its own reset while the other three have a different way to reset.
