There are many button combinations around for the Zune, but some don’t work so well, at least for me; so here are all the button combos I found, if you know another one, please comment. Here is another post over this, the website’s called “Hektik” … but I doubt they work…

So here it is:

Go Back to Main Menu
Press and Hold Back
No matter what you are doing, doing this will take you all the way back to the Main Menu.

Sleep/Stand-by
Hold Play
This will put your Zune into sleep mode. In this mode, your Zune will slowly drain its battery life but it will keep info such as the song you were playing, what picture you were looking at, etc.

Shutdown
Hold Down + Back
This will completely turn off you Zune, saving you battery life.

Restart/Reboot
Hold Up + Back
This will Restart your Zune, just like a computer.

Reformat Hard drive
Shutdown, Hold Left + Center + Back
While your Zune is off, press this combination and your Zune will tell you that is deleting its content, the way it was when you pulled it out of the box. (didn’t quite work for me)

Here’s another way:
Restart, Back + Center + Play
Restart you Zune with the combination given above. While your Zune its starting to turn back on, press the combination at the same time and this should revert it the way it was when you first bought it.
