Er, are you sure you were putting the paperclip in the right hole?

The reset hole is on the BACK of the 500 - you have to remove the cover to see it. You weren't putting the paperclip in the hole above the power switch, which the "charging" light shines through, were you? That could produce some very undesirable effects, and certainly wouldn't do a "reset"! If you did do that, and the power switch is now loose, you've probably dislodged one end of the spring that tensions the power switch from its mount. You'll need to take off the side buffer to put it back again.
