How do i restore my ipod that wont turn on?

i went to an apple store because i thought my ipod wouldnt turn on, but he told me to just restore it on itunes. i plugged my ipod into the computer and it wont even turn on, so i cant restore it.

Have you tried checking out the suggestions in these articles?:

    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.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    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.

    With the iPod turned off, press and hold the Home button. Connect it to your computer and open iTunes. Keep holding the Home button until iTunes sees it. You will have to do a full restore.

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How to fix a iphone 4 that wont turn on?

    my iphone4 will not turn on. It's been of since March 15th, 2013. I tried hooking it up to itunes and it the computer did not pick up that the phone was connected. Still off. I held the home and lock button down for about 30 seconds and its still off. I have checked my phone and i dont see any signs of water damages. Yes, it has been cracked and it is still cracked. What else should i do?

    Connect to Wall Charger for 10 minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until iPhone turns ON. If still nothing, clean charging port with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

    You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabilng the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
    Next, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account.  In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials.
    If possible, either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.  To do this, right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc.  For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases.  For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different software availbable to assist you with this task.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
    Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier.  Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

  • How can I restore the music that was on my iPod to my computer or another iPod?

    My iPod classic has failed with an HDD error. I've tried recover mode and everything, it's goosed. Half my music was only on the iPod, a collection over the years from my various computers, it was backed up using itunes however. How can i restore the music that was on my iPod to my computer or another iPod? (dont have another classic, only shuffle and iphone) I'm guessing itunes holds some kind of virtual image of the ipod classic somewhere. THanks in advance for any info, google didn't produce anything I could use.

    That is stealing. Your friend does not have the right to give her music away. Delete them and purchase your own music.
