2nd gen ipod touch wont turn off?!?!?!

I have a 2nd gen ipod touch that will not turn off even when plugged in. Its fully charged and ive restored it a couple times.  I dont know what to do with it. Help?

Have you tried resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • My old 1st gen ipod touch wont turn on and makes a clicking sound when I plug it in.

    My old 1st gen ipod touch wont turn on and makes a clicking sound when I plug it in. The ipod doesnt turn on when I plug it into the wall, even if I let it charge, and itunes won't recognize it. I have tried to reset it with the home and power buttons. Whats wrong and how can I fix it? I think it might be the memory or the battery. What could the clicking sound be related to? Thanks

    Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try restoring the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    After that I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • 1st Gen. iPod touch wont turn on. Home button doesn't work. Can't reset.

    Hi there.  My 1st generation iPod touch wont turn on.  The battery has drained completely, and the few times this happened in the past, I could just reset it by holding the home and top buttons, the iPod would turn on, I could plug it in, and then it would charge--no problems.  However, now the home button does not work, so I cannot reset it. When I plug it in to the charger, the Apple logo appears for about 20 seconds, then disappears.  Also, if I hold the top button for about 2 seconds, the same thing happens (Apple logo appears for about 20 seconds, then disappears).  So, it doesn't turn on, wont reset due to the home button not working, and can't connect to the computer or iTunes.  However, it still has some life in it because the Apple logo always appears when it's plugged in or when I hold the top button.  Can anybody help?  Thanks.

    See if this program will place the iPOd in recovery mode so yu can restore the iPOd.

    If the iPod still has its original battery, it could be that the battery finally bit the dust.

  • My 3rd gen ipod touch keeps turning off

    My 3rd generation Ipod Touch keeps turning off. I put it on charge until full, but when I switch it on it turns off after a few minutes.
    Is this a hardware problem or a faulty battery?

    Save your time and frustration. Return to Apple for an exchange product.

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

  • 2nd generation ipod touch wont turn on. The screen blinks but the apple icon doesn't show up.

    I have a 2nd generation ipod touch that I got from a friend. I drove all the way across the country (three day trip) and it worked perfectly. It was in a hard case and has no damages to it. I haven't dropped it or gotten water on it at all. But for some reason the screen wont turn on. It blinks on and off when I plug it into the charger (and theres like a soft clicking noise that I hear when the screen blinks) but the apple logo wont show up. And it doesn't seem to actually be charging. It doesn't seem to actually die all the way either.... It's weird.. but I know no damages have happened to it so I don't know what to do. I've tried to reset it (pressing and holding the home and power buttons) but that wont work either. Help?

  • My 2nd gen. ipod touch wont download apps

    Whenever I try to download a game on my ipod touch (its uploaded to the newest version) the icon pops up and the loading bar is on the icon but it never fills up and after a couple seconds it just disappears! I've already turned it off and back on to see if that would work and it didn't! I deleted a lot of pictures and videos and other apps and I have a ton of open memory, but I can't figure out whats wrong! Help! i don't have time to go to the apple store and there isn't one nearby anyway, and the internet connection is good. I've never had this problem before and I have good Wi-fi so I dont know what to think. HELP!

    I had this issue before and it was related to security restrictions set on the touch itself
    On the touch itself go to: Settings->General->Restrictions 
    If there is a restrict for Installing Apps the Apps page will be greyed out in itunes

  • 2nd Gen iPod Touch intermittent shut off and/or screen shots, blinking +

    Hi - concerned, not very technical mom here, trying to help out my son. His iPod touch shuts off, goes to the front screen, takes screen shots, sometimes the touch works and sometimes it doesn't, it blinks, I am not sure what to do. Any and all very specific (remember not real techy mom here) suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.

    I've had this same problem. It ended up being a problem in the hardware. Your going to need to take it to a Apple Genius Bar. They will help you understand the problem better.
