Apple sign, then sad ipod sign.. cycles over and over

It's truly frusterating.
my warranty ended just last month and my ipod broke about a week after my warranty ended. ARG!
When i try to turn my ipod on, the apple sign shows for about 10 seconds then the sad ipod sign shows for about 20. I'm charging it on a wall plug-in charger, but the process keeps continuing when i'm not even touching it.
I tried the 5 R's and it has no effect. i tried every possibility and it refuses to work...
i tried plugging it on my computer, but my itunes wont even recognize it and my ipod keeps showing the same signs over and over(apple,sad ipod)

  • Ipod wont turn on all i see is the apple sign then my ipod shuts off again, how to fix it?

    ipod wont turn on all i see is the apple sign then my ipod shuts off again, how to fix it?

    Connect it to itunes, and see if itunes recoginizes it.
    If not, then hold home and the power button to do a soft reset.
    If not, then you will need to go into recovery mode.
    To get into recovery mode you need to Hold Power + Home at the same time. After it goes blank, continue holding the home button while releasing your finger from the Power Button.
    You should be able to do it. Otherwise, you may need to send your Ipod in for repair.
    NOTE - Using recovery on your Ipod will erase all data and reset all settings.

  • HT201210 I did the update on my phone and now it just keeps restarting itself over and over again. It will come up with the black screen and apple sign and shut off and bring that up again. What do I do?

    First I did the update under general like I do every couple months. My phone came up with a screen, at the end of the update, that had a picture of the itunes icon and a picture of the iphone cord like I was supposed to connect to itunes. I did and itunes said that my phone needed to be "restored" to be reusable again, and the only option it gave me was to click the restore button. So I did and it went through a 30 minute restore session. Now my phone just shows the black screen with the apple icon and restarts over and over again. Clicking the buttons does nothing. It has been doing this for hours now. What do I do?

    The screen is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes.

  • Why does my iPod keep asking me to put my password in over and over again when I try to view my Apple ID without ever letting me in

    Please help me figure out why I cannot view my Apple ID on my iPod touch. Everytime I try to buy a album or anything it asks me to up date my billing info and when I go to do so it asks for my password over and over again and I keep puttiń it in and it never lets me in.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out and sign back in
    - Reset your Apple ID password
    How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
    If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.

  • I am having problems signing into iTunes, keeps asking for my ID&PW over and over.

    I am unable to log into iTunes store and download songs. My connections are ok, and I got into the store last week. I can sign in...but when I got to purchase a song, it ask me to verify my acct, So I give it my id and pw, wait a few sec, then the window comes back asking the same thing over and over. Any help would be appreciated. Emails me direct, [email protected]

    Only one apple ID. Password is correct. It keeps prompting me in an endless loop anyway.
    If I enter the password one time, then click cancel on all dozen+ additional prompts, then I can finally proceed to check for app updates and available TV show subscriptions.
    I used to have to type the password exactly twice because it hasn't been storing the password correctly for some time (there are posts elsewhere about cookie storage issues, none of which helped me).
    But after the upgrade to iTunes 11.0.3 (42) 64-bit (on Mac OS X 10.8.3), I now have the problem in SPADES -- dozens of prompts, because each time I satisfy one, I get two more, until I give up and cancel them all.
    This is not user error.  It is a bug that has been made worse by the latest iTunes.

  • My 5th ten iPod is basically doing nothing but trying over and over again to start up. I've tried to restore it, but when the logo apple appears, it simply shut down.

    my 5th ten iPod is basically doing nothing but trying over and over again to start up. I've tried to restore it, but when the logo apple appears, it simply shut down. Then I've connected it to my macbook pro, and I've seen the script "Please Wait - Very Low Battery", but, after some time, the iPod tries to start up again, and nothing happens. It's a kind of noise, I'm thinking about the hard disk, (it's a 80Gb version), and I'm listening to it; every 30 seconds seems to try to open and then shut down again. I can't see the iPod in iTunes too. Don't know what to do. Can someone help me? Thanks a lot, it's my first forum

    It sounds like the battery could be going bad as well as the iPod's Hard drive.  You'll want to have the iPod serviced either by Apple or a third party repair company. Here is Apple's pricing:

    Google for "iPod repair" and you should get a ton of results to work with.

  • "Sign In To iCloud" keeps popping up over and over again - HELP!

    Hi,
    Recently I have been having trouble trying to fix my issue with my second hand iPhone 5 (32gb). About 5 months ago I had bought this iPhone and everything was fine. Until yesterday a message popped up stating that I need to sign in to iCloud. The apple ID was not mine nor did I know this email so I tried pressing cancel but it kept popping up over and over again. I cannot do anything to my phone right now and had tried searching up for a solution to this extremely annoying problem but found no fix. My phone is connected to Wifi and I've tried rebooting, but haven't restored and reset since I'm scared that it might turn up to be an activation lock. I have tried contacting Apple Support but they've put me to hold for a very long time which I can't do anything about and I'm afraid that I have come to a dead end. Also, I've tried contacting the owner of the iCloud account but they haven't replied yet so I'm anxiously waiting for a solution. Please, PLEASE PLEASE help me since I'm desperate for an answer and will need a phone in the next few days.
    Best regards,
    Andy- iPhone 5, iOS 7.1

    I have the loop issue solved. It seems it was as simple as turning the wifi back on. It got shut off and I was unaware. It was really hard to go through the settings menu with the sign in box continually popping up. Thanks for offering to help.

  • When I connect my Air to my Samsung TV, I am able to see the screen mirrored on the tv for a split second before the tv turns to static.  This pattern then cycles over and over.  I can't get the image to stay on the tv screen.  Any ideas?

  • My ipod 5th gen ios 7.0.6 crashed and keeps going from the apple logo, going to a black screen, back to the apple logo, then back to the black screen and so on. Furthermore, my laptop doesn't recognise that the iPod is connected. What do I do?

    Please help me out as this is very irritating. This has been happening for the last 20-30 minutes. It had roughly half battery left.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I put my ipod on voicecontrol by accident so i typed in my password it said it was wrong i typed it in over and over and it said connect to itunes so I did then i updated it and it told me to restore it still says to connect to itunes please help.

    I put my ipod on voice control by accident so i typed in my password because I wanted to listern to my music it said it was wrong. So i typed it in over and over again until it said connect to itunes so I did. Then while I was at it I updated it I waited 30 mins and then I couldn't turn it on. When it finally did turn on it still said please connect to itunes. So i restored it and rebooted it everything. And it still says connect to itunes. I go on itunes and it says ipod touch is in restore mode unlock password. Well I can't do that if my ipod is disabled. Please help.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Just bought a new iphone4 and was loading os6 and now it won't turn on. the apple glows like it is starting up, then the screen goes black and then repeats the same process over and over. i have tried to reboot multiple times now

    just bought a new iphone4 and was loading os6 and now it won't turn on. the apple glows like it is starting up, then the screen goes black and then repeats the same process over and over. i have tried to reboot multiple times now

    I am assuming the phone was working prior to you installing IOS 6? Did you use itunes to install IOS 6 or just run from the phone?
    When I tried to do the Over The Air update to IOS6 on my iPhone 4, it errored out and I had to connect it to iTunes and select "Restore" from the summary screen after iTunes finds the phone is connected. If this works for you, it will go through a couple of reboots that take a few minutes to complete. It should then give you the option to start with a fresh new phone or to use one of your previous backups to load your contacts and other information, provided you have backed up the phone previously.
    I hope this helps you my friend!
