Ipod touch froze on apple screen with little wheel

I have an 8gb ipod touch that is froze on the apple screen with the little wheel. I have tried to restore and update thru itunes but nothing happens. Is this fixable? Can anyone please help?

Did you also try to connect in recovery mode before you start to restore the device?
Explained here:

  • IMac freezes at apple screen with spinning wheel.

    Last night my iMac crashed. When I started it back up, it just stuck at the apple screen with the little spinning wheel. I took it to the Genius Bar and he said to just do a full OS reinstall.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions? I just want to make sure I've covered all the bases before I delete all my stuff. I've run disk utility (from the install disk) and I've also run the Hardware check program from the install disk. Any help would be appreciated greatly.

  • ... have tried everything to restart my ipod touch. stuck on that screen with the apple logo

    My Ipod Touch suddenly stopped working. It hadtrouble starting up – then suddenly turned on after a few minutes of pushingthe start button. The next time I turned it off, it never started back up. Symptoms:
    It is stuck on the apple logo screen (with thecircle of moving bars – as if it is waiting or doing something) and never moveson from this.
    When I plug it in and try to restore it:
    Whensyncing with my back-up, I get the error: ITunes could not restore it becausean error occurred
    WhenI set up a new Ipod, everything downloads. (apps, music etc)
    It looks like it is fixed, butwhen I unplug it and try to get it to work, it is still stuck in the apple logoscreen – same as above.
    I have also updated all of the software. Still - no go!
    When it is plugged in to mycomputer, I am able to play music and see the items in the ipod. Through this,I have even updated my software. This all works .. but that screen with theapple logo does not go away and I just cannot access it manually through the touchscreen or ipod buttons.
    Who can help me?

    Did you also try to connect in recovery mode? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • My ipod touch has a grey screen with lines running through it

    My screen is grey with lines running horizontally across it 

    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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    or maybe:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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 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.

  • Ipod touch 5th generation battery screen with lightning bolt locked cannot charge or restart.  ive tried everything from new cables attempting to shut down but stays at screen for a few seconds then black screen again over and over

    screen locked up and shows the battery with low red and ligtning bolt and cannot hard shut down or reset just stays there for a few seconds then black screen. hooked up to computer and itunes doesnt recognize it or even shows that it is pluged in.  looked and made sure nothing is broken or metal in ligting port or on cable which would prevent it from accepting a charge. ipod is only a month old and seems like a waste of money if its so hard to try to get an explanation of why this is ive been tryning to get an answer from apple for a week now.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

    If DFU function won't work, it would be better to restore your iTunes. Just make sure that you will have it backed up every once in a while so you'll have it ready for this type of problem.

  • IPod Touch Stuck On Apple Screen After Reset

    iPod Touch would not show up in iTunes after being connected to the computer so I went through the online walkthrough of common problems, when I reset the ipod it froze on the apple logo and will not respond at all.
    Any solutions?

    I was having the exact same problem with my Ipod touch, finally I figured out the problem after having tried all of those troubleshooting links, 1st I went into the start menu then right clicked on My Computer, then clicked manage. Then once I got into computer management I clicked on Device Manager, and at the bottom of the page I clicked the on Universal Serial Bus Controllers, it should say apple Mobil device right underneath, once you get there leave this page open. Open up itunes, connect ipod then hold the on/off switch and home button until itunes asks you to restore your ipod. Click restore, and it may say also say update and restore if so click on it. Then while it tries to restore your ipod click back on computer management and keep an eye on the apple mobil device USB port, you should get a warning that pops up next to the mobil device port, if you do double click on the apple mobil device and click reinstall.
    Sorry this is so long and drawn out I hope that it helps.

  • My ipod touch has a black screen with the loading symbol on it

    I've had my Ipod touch for almost two years it is a fourth generation. Today I was going to charge it when the screen went black and had the circling loading symbol on it. It has now been stuck there for hours. My computer won't reconize it saying that there is an unknown error. What can I do to fix it?

    Try a hard reset and go from there.

  • I reset my ipod touch and the apple screen is frozen and already tried the steps on the apple website

    I have reset my ipod touch 3rd generation and after doing so it is frozen with an apple in the middle of the screen and i have already tried the apple support page steps and still doesnt fix it, please help me out

    The warranty does not cover accidental damage like that cased by  dropping the iPod. However, Apple has known to make acceptions. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.  Otherwise Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99

  • IPod Touch Stuck on Apple Screen and iTunes won't recognize

    I was resetting my ipod touch to clean it off to give to my sister. I thought it was plugged in, but turns out it was not, so the battery died while it was resetting itself. Now it is stuck on the apple screen. I have tried everything to reboot it and get iTunes to recognize the device, but nothing has worked. I had my computer cleaned, so iTunes is brand new and has never been hooked up to this iPod Touch. I need help please!!

    TRy placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restoring. See:
