My daughter's ipod just went dead and will not come back on

My daughter was listening to her ipod touch (purchased last Fall) when it suddenly went dead. Any attempts to try and charge it or connect it to itunes has been unsuccessful. Any ideas what we could do, other than purchase a new one?
Thanks!

Hello Evasic
Try different power sources, like a wall adapter or another computer and make sure that the computer is not asleep. Check out the article below for additional troubleshooting options to get it powered back on.

My iPod shut off randomly and will no longer turn back on. I plugged it in to charge it, but after several hours it will not turn back on. What should I do?

My iPod turn off randomly. I plugged it in to the charger, and after several hours, it still will not turn on. I even plugged it into my computer and pulled up iTunes, where it showed up on the screen as plugged in, but still it will not turn back on. Any suggestions on what I should do?

- First try resetting the iPOd:
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
- Next try restoring the iPod via iTunes, first from backup and if still problem to factory defaults/new iPod.

My daughter's ipod touch got hot while charging and will no longer turn on.

My daugther's ipod touch got hot and will no longer turn on. Is there a solution to this problem or is the ipod fried?

I'm not sure if it's fried or not, but try rebooting the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously for about 15 seconds or so. Hopefully you will see the Apple logo.

My iPod will no longer turn on after I fully charged it. HELP!

I knew I should have never trusted Apple with personal files. I put all of my pictures from my digital camera (1,800 of them) on the ipod for "safe" keeping. Now my ipod will no longer turn on. I fully charged the ipod until the "charged" icon appeared. Then I disconnected it. A couple hours later I tried to turn it on and it no longer turns on. I've had this iPod for about 6 months and I'm pretty sure it's not a dead battery. It's been very good with me. The hold switch is NOT activated. I went through all of the common sense troubleshooting steps. I tried to reset the ipod. I tried recharging it on AC power. I tried reconnecting it via USB on computer. I tried the updater, which doesn't work b/c ipod won't turn on. I've also tried hitting it...jk. I also have 10,330 songs on here. This is my life on my ipod. I can't afford to lose this info. 60GB gone. Is there anything else I can do to fix this? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks

- DFY mod and then restore?

Ipod touch went dead.

my ipod touch went dead and has been charging for an hour. screen is blank white, lit up. home screen will not come up. What do I do?

If iTunes recognizes your iPod Touch, then try doing a software restore in iTunes by clicking in your iPod and clicking the Restore button. This will restore your iPod to factory settings. So back up your Music, Videos, and purchases before restoring.

So my Ipod will no longer turn on. i leave it on my Ihome and nothing happens. whenever i try to turn it on i get the Apple logo and then it dies and says i should charge it, so i do and it does it again. What does this mean? is my battery totally dead?

Did you try to charge it using the adapter or your computer?
If you can, let it charge for about 15min, then connect in recovery mode, described in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
If still not luck, your battery might have to be replaced:

Hard reset by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake lock button (BUtton on the bottom of your display, button you use to turn the screen black) hold them both down for 15 seconds till you see the apple reappear

Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

For both
Try:
- 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 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.

IF RESET DOESN'T WORK, FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTunes and plug (very important)
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note: Data will be lost

Well first you locate your Caps Lock key. It is located above shift, and below tab. Now you press it, and take a deep breath. If your iPod is outside of its service, have you looked into other options like local repair shops? Sometimes they still service older products.

Try placing the iPodin recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod via iTunes on your computer. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Next would be to make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you likely have a hardware problem.

Installed SMC 1.3 update on 17 inch MBP - screen will no longer turn on!

Hey guys I downloaded this firmware update today on Software Update. The fan revved full speed (like it says it will) then stopped. After the restart my screen will no longer turn on. I have tried resetting PRAM, SMC, connecting an external monitor, and every other trick I can think of. The computer is still running as I can log in and use the function keys to change the volume up and down but the screen is solid black.This is the first issue I've had with the computer (purchased December 2007)and I DESPERATELY need to get it running ASAP! Anyone have any ideas?
[edit]
To elaborate, the first time I called Apple they told me to hold the power button until the computer made a noise and then boot up. That turned the screen back on and I got in and cleared the cache as they said I should. Next reboot screen was black again. Then when I reset the PRAM I got in. Reboot, black screen. Then finally when I reset the SMC I got in, same deal on reboot. Now none of those tricks works. Any way to downgrade the SMC? At least the previous firmware worked.

Hi Balance ... in this case the weak link in the chain is your local dealer. It is odd that they "refuse clients" and Apple should be made aware of that as they are part of the support structure. Have you tried finding a kind ear at Apple who will take this on and intervene with a phone call to your local chappies?
I have also been an Apple purchaser for >20 years and this is the first time I have had a software update cause a hardware problem ... perfect storm ... a weak NVIDIA chip (mine originally passed apple tests but those tests only caught the really bad defects), an odd temperature response after the update, and a failure response that most service shops call "intermittent" (which makes them suspect it is your fault instead of Apple's. This is now a known issue linked into the update so if you find the right guy at Apple you may be able to persuade them simply to ship a new motherboard to you or the dealer...
Good luck but what, exactly, is a viable alternative to Apple?? I still keep my slide rule in my back pocket (and am now working from an old macbook while my MBP was in the shop for a week).

HT1386 my phone will no longer turn all the way on or sinc... It just says activation required.

My I phone will no longer turn on all the way or conect with my computer all the way to sinc.... keeps saying "activation required"? How do I activate?

The only time I have ever seen that is when my SIM card is out of my phone. Try opening the sim card tray and then replacing it after a minute. Use a paperclip to pop the door open on the side of the phone (if it is a 4 or 4s) or on top (if 3GS) and see if that changes the alert message. Check back with status if that doesn't help. You can also trying a full restore by plugging it into your computer and opening iTunes. When it recognizes the phone click on the phone name in the left menu and hit restore. This will erase the phone but if you have a backup you can restore from that after it resets the phone or you can set it up as a new phone and start from scratch. Good luck, let me know if this helps.
