Have you tried rebooting? When you click player does the bit in the centre spin for a bit like it's thinking? On my WIFI it does this as it's streaming the first minute or so before it starts.

I click on the middle play button and nothing happens, its like its not evening reckognising that ive pressed it.
How do I do about rebooting the iphone?0 -
