Hi,
Try placing your iPod in Recovery Mode and restoring it via iTunes:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808. 
Hope this helps!

  • I have a 4th gen ipod touch. i reset all settings and it has not restarted now for 8 hours. On/ Off switch is not working. How do I restart my Ipod Touch?

    i have a 4th gen ipod touch. i reset all settings and it has not restarted yet. it has been resetting for about 8 hours now. It won't let me restart the iPod touch. the loading screen just keeps running.

    Hi paul.lisa,
    Then when you press down on one of those icons (on the actual Home screen), and all the icons start to wiggle, a small black "x" should show up in the upper left-hand corner:
    Cheers,

    I would instead say you have a problem since nearly all IPs work as advertised.  IF you do have a bad phone, take it into an Apple store and get a replacement.  Hope you didn't jailbreak your phone though as Apple probably will tell you, you broke it, you fix it.

  • HT201263 My 4th gen ipod touch is 6 mos old and will not turn on

    My 4th gen ipod touch is 6 mos old. Tried to turn on today and nothing.  Plugged into computer held down sleep/wake button and plugged into computer with usb.  Nothing.  It has not been dropped or bumped.  It has been stored as I don't use it often only to play music on spotify thru internet.  I probably haven't used this ipod more than 20 times.  Any suggestions?

    - After being connected to a charging source for at least an hour see if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
    - If not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Officejet 6600 shut down while printing and will not turn back on

    I was printing a few documents on my printer and everythign was working fine, then there was a loud click and the touch screen turned blue and the printer shut down. I could not power it back up using the power button, so I tried unplugging it and re-plugging it and it did not work. I have the device plugged into a surge protector so I plugged it into the wall and it still did not work. (Note: all other devices on surge protector were able to get power, so it was not that). I do not know what to do. I need the printer for business and school ASAP and the product is still under warrenty. The warrenty ends September this year (I believe). I would like to bring it into the store if I can and exchange it, but I do not have the box. I do not know if there is something HP can give me to be able to return the product to Staples, or how long it will take to go through HP for the warrenty, but again, I need this printer ASAP and all of the troubleshooting I've done so far has not helped. This is not the first time the printer has shut down while printing more than one document, however this is the first time it has not been able to turn back on either by pressing the power button or unplugging it and replugging it back in. Any help would be great!

    Hi @Stacki 
    I don't know what Staples return policy is. I suggest calling us so we can help.
    If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
    HP printers generally have a 1 year warranty from their purchase date, you can verify the warranty using the following link if you would like; warranty check.

  • Computer keeps crashing/shutting down while syncing -?USB fail?-

    Hi,
    I recently bought a new Ipod Touch 32gb. But there's one small thing that keeps annoying me. Everytime I connect my Ipod to my computer, it shuts down under 5 minutes. (It did manage to stay connected for 30 minutes, once...)
    So I went to the computer store to "let it fix the problem". They told me that it was a problem with my USB-drivers and that they had solved the problem. Once I came home the problems began again.
    Does anyone know what I have to do to fix this problem without buying a new chipboard or computer if it's my USB-driver? Or do I have a virus or such?
    Thx!

    I don't believe this is a driver or a virus issue. My 64gb is a month old and doing the same thing. I wrote to Apple for advice and they responded "try using the forums for information". No joke.
    Every time I sync the device it causes my PC to freeze and sometimes crash. Am also running a 2nd gen Touch with no such issues, syncing fine. My 3rd gen also keep "verifying", sometimes for ten minutes at a time. Have already had to restore the iPod once and think I will have to do it again. Touch screen also freezes intermittently and data I've transfered is frequently corrupted.
    I'm trying to get a replacement from the retailer but this and several other bugs really need to be addressed directly by Apple for such an expensive item.

  • HT201413 My iphone shut down, I started the restore process as detailed by various other users.  However the Iphone shuts down while restoring and when it switches back on I get message from Itunes with error 21.  I now can't access the Iphone at all.

    My Iphone started shutting down and switching back on by itself. After researching problem, lots of results pointed towards restoring phone.  I commenced the process and all was going well until the phone shut down during the restore and Itunes then flagged up an error 21 code.  I now am stuck as the phone is in restore mode but I can't stop it switching off during the process.

    iTunes error code 21 is a security software conflict and the recommended knowledge base article for troubleshooting is:  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125  Check through that and see if it helps.  If nothing works you may need to visit the Apple genius bar and have one of those people help clear it.

  • (Z77A-G45) HELP! Computer shut down while working and... never boot up again

    Assembled the other day but...today it was working fine. Sudenly shut down and never boot up again.

    i5-3330 3GHz
    gpu gigabyte gtx560
    Ram 2x4G (High-performance 8GB Vengeance Dual Channel Kit, 1600MHz, 9-9-9-24, 1.5V)

    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Voltage at 24 pin and 8 pin connectors are ok and under the tolerance as I saw here http://pcsupport.about.com/od/insidethepc/a/power-supply-voltage-tolerance.htm
    I will check the other rails.
    Hmmm... starting to suspect that the cause is something else.
    Missed the beeps in the past.
    This mobo (z77a-g45) never emitted a single one.
    Not even at startup when it was ok!
    Oh man!
    The computer was running well and then suddenly screen went black, no disks activity, no keyboard response, no video, no reset switch working. Fans continue spinning.
    Had to pull the plug to stop the fans. Then plug it again but no boot. Just cpu phase led 1 is lit, fans activity and nothing more. No welcome screen, no disks activity!
    I will try to test the ram on another computer.
    Any other clues?
    Thkx

  • HT201412 My 4th gen iPod touch was docked, it stopped and now won't turn on.  HELP!?!?

    My iPod was full charge, I was playing some obnoxious band, all of the sudden it stopped playing, the screen was gray.  I undocked it, and tried to reset it.  Now it won't turn on.  I've had it plugged into both the wall and the computer.  Any suggestions???

  • My ipod 5 shut off while charging and wont turn back on , how do i turn it on without deleting everything.?

    Helppppp

    Try the following. However, it may end up erasing the iPod since a software problem may have caused the problem.:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

    HELP
    Help needed to update a 4th gen ipod touch running version 4.3.5 (8L1) to the latest 6.0 version.  When I connect and try to update i keep getting a box which states that a connection error occured and I cannot update.
    I have been given a new laptop for xmas which runs on windows 8, and the new itunes version (which is in itself a hurdle as I am a technophobe!) and this is all becoming a bit fustrating. 
    I have connected, updated and synced my iphone successfully, but just hit a brick wall on the ipod.  (which incidentally maybe where this laptop will end up!!)
    Help if you can, but in laymans terms.......

    Thank you for you input so far.....
    I think we are getting nearer to the solution sort of!
    Let me get this straight...... I have paid for content on itunes, bought the apple devicds in order to play said content, now I have to subscribe $25 for the privilage of playing MY library content on MY other devices. Which wasn't such an issue to do before the new and improved itunes version!!
    Have I got that correct.  I think I cannot associate my other iOS devices with my library because I am unwilling to pay further through the nose!!!???  or am I missing something?
    Thanks
    Frustrated even more now!!
