Hi,
Thanks for using fixya, Needle won't move due to following reason:-
1) Bobbin winder shaft was left in winding position. Please move bobbin winder shaft back to the left position and it will release the bobbin winder.Then you should be able to sew
2) Buttonhole lever was not lowered when machine was placed in buttonhole mode.You have to lower buttonhole lever.
3) Presser foot is up, Lower it.
4) Upper thread has run out, Thread machine.

Good Luck...
