Halls of the Dark Muse

My ipod is currently is all in Chinese now. For all the good that does me.

What happened is that when I turn my ipod on after I have charged it, I get the language menu screen and English is the first option at the top, so when I went to click on it, I guess my finger brushed on the scroll thing at the same time and wahhhla. I selected Chinese for my ipod.

And after you have sleeted the language there is no way to go back to that screen. Somewhere on my ipod there might be a settings menu, but since I have never had any reason to change my ipod settings I could not say where such a thing might be located and since it is all in Chinese I have no way of figuring out what strange arrangement of caricatures is indeed the settings menu.

I went onto Apple to their ipod tech support page, and of course my archaic version of the ipod is no longer even recognized. They had stuff about changing the language on your iphone, or itouch, or the 5th generation nano, all of which have a completely different menu set up than my ipod so none of it was of any help to me.

At some point I am going to see if there is someway in which I can change the language via my itunes, to see if I sync in my ipod on my itunes I can than find a way to access the settings menu to change the language, but if that does not work, I will just have to wait for the battery to get low again so I can charge it up again and thus be able to once more access the language selection to change it back.
