My Ipod touch will not turn on,charge or anything for no aparent reason? Did not drop get ,wet or anything else!

Is there anything that might possibly be done to try and fix this? I have only had my touch for about 10 months. It was working fine and when I was using it to take photos it said low battery,I hit ignore took a few more pix then put it away.When I got home I plugged into USB to charge and nothing happened??? The screen is just BLACK-no sign of life at all and it has been plugged in all night! Is it dead? Will it ever turn on again? Is there another way to try and get it to work? If anybody could please help me out with this I would really appriciate it.This was a very expensive toy to only have worked less than a year! I have always taken very good care of it,its never been dropped,gotten wet,or manipulated in any way.I have always used a cover and screen protector! But like a dummy I did NOT get the extended warrenty. Is it garbage now? PLEASE HELP IF POSSIBLE thanks so much!!!!!

Have you tried to Hard reset it (force to boot) by holding the Power button and the Home button both at the same time for 10 to 20 seconds and once you see the apple logo release them all
-if does not work repeat the same procedure by pluging it you ipod into a wall-charger and if instead you see the battery logo with with the lit across it this would mean that you need to charge it
this is a typical problem that happen when the battery is complety drained out
-keep in mind if you finally triger the system to make the battery logo appear you good to go !!!

I have a Macpro Book and I just downloaded new software to my ipod touch(3rd gen). Now itunes does not recognize it nor will it turn on. I believe it just downloaded but did not update the software. What do I do?

You appear to have a second generation iPod touch, not a third, and those can't be updated past 4.2.1. Apple sold 8GB second generation models at the same time as the third generation ones.

My 4th gen Ipod Touch won't turn on/charge?

I have the 4th Gen Ipod touch. I was using it after it had been saying 20% battery remaining for awhile. I locked the screen, then I tryed to press the power button again to unlock it but it wouldn't work. I automatically assumed it had died completely so I tried plugging it in to charge. Even after letting it sit for a while it will not charge or turn on. I tried plugging it into a computer to charge as well, but my computer still wouldn't pick up on it. I tried the usual "hold down power button and home button at the same time for a few seconds" thing, but that was useless because my home button barely works. I cannot plug the ipod into a computer to restore it anyway, because my stuff isn't backed up and I am on iOS 4.something (as the original computer i had my iTunes on stopped working, so I havent been able to update it) so I will lose all my photos and music (I didn't purchase all my music from the itunes store). Does anybody have any suggestions? I tried calling Apple but Im out of warranty so they wouldn't help me, and theres only one Apple store in my state (and its nearly 4 hours away) so I'm basically screwed, right?

My ipod touch 4th generation won't charge all of a sudden and I'm not sure what to do?

When I get home from school I instantly put my ipod on it's charger because I use it a lot during the day. i always put in on an ipod dock and play my music while it charges and use my computer until it's completely done charging. So, today I did that and had a friend over and while she was using my computer I asked her to pass me my ipod and she did and I used it without any problems whatsoever. After she left I put it on the charger where it did not work. I figured it was the dock itself so I turned it off then on and nothing it still wouldn't work, then I went and put it on an outlet charger where it acknowledged that it was on a charger and turned on for a brief moment then turned off again and again. It hasn't been used since then and it keeps truning on and off. I was getting worried and tried to look up some solutions online but wasn't getting any until I saw this one that said it could have possibly been from the static shock of something. My friend shocked herself before touching it then I did the same later while putting it on an outlet charger... could that be it? And if so, how do I fix it? Please I really need some help with this.

Not Charge

- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

Ipod Touch will only turn on plugged into computer, It will sync and as soon as I touch the screen after syncing it shuts down

My Ipod touch 3g will turn on with the cable attached, it will sync with Itunes. But as soon as I touch the screen to unlock it, I get no response to the touch and it immediately crashes. Also everytime I unplug it I have to restore it to a new Ipod to get it to sync. Is the battery bad? The battery meter says its full too. Or any I looking a host of different problems. Could the logic board be bad?

it could be to rule this out are u able to reset the device?
hold both power and home buttons till the apple logo shows
if u get no reponse or it crashes it could be the logic board or the battery is damaged
and i would make an apponintemet at the genius at www.itunes.com to arrange an repair or chat to a apple repair team member

My iPod Touch Won't Turn On, Charge or Enter DFU mode

Hey, one day my iPod just wouldn't charge anymore,I though my charger was the problem so I bought a new one, and it still didin't work so I tried another one and still nothing. When my iPod turned off because of low battery it would not turn on again. Then I thought my battery was the problem so I had it changed at the store and it still didn't work. I tried to enter DFU mode and recover, but it just won't enter DFU mode (and no, I'm sure I'm not doing it wrong, I did it before). I hope this is somehow fixable because people at the store didn't know how to fix it and I don't really have to funds to buy a new one. And also, store I was talking about isn't apple store because we don't have them here in Croatia, so I can't really get a new one for free...

Well... since I have been with it in all services in my area and none of them know how to fix it, I guess I'll just have to buy a new one eventually... thanks anyways for replying...
