Another touch frozen on the ^*&^! Apple logo

WOW. I am sooooooo disappointed in Apple on this. Anytime I update an app on my touch the thing LOCKS UP and I have to do a full restore. Does ANYONE have a solution to this???? I've searched and searched and nada. Surely there is some Apple guru online who knows why this is happening. I've had the thing less than a month and have had to restore FIVE TIMES!
Sigh.

Add one MORE restore to that. This is really bad. I thought Palm stuff had gone to pot... I've seen A LOT of posts with similar problems. Why can't Apple fix this?

    When I turned on my iPod Touch, I got the frozen Apple logo. I tried connecting to my computer by USB but iTunes would not recognize my iTouch. Holding down the Sleep+Home buttons only restarted back to the frozen Apple logo screen again. Finally, I found putting the iTouch in "Restore mode" http://kaspers.freeflux.net/blog/archive/2007/10/15/how-to-force-your-ipod-touch -into-restore-mode.html
    where you hold down both Sleep+Home, then let go of Sleep while still holding down Home. After a couple of tries, iTunes is now attempting to restore my iTouch.

  • I was updating my ipod and had to stop it so held down the power and home buttons. Now my ipod is frozen with the apple logo showing. The computer will not recognise it so it will not charge or restore. Is there anything that I can do myself?

    I was updateing the software on my ipod through the wireless straight to the ipod and had to stop so held down both the power and the home buttons. Now the screen is frozen with the apple logo and the normal 'unfreeze' technique won't work. The computer does not recognise the ipod so will not charge or restore it. Is there anything that I can do myself?

    Unplug it and let unit go dead. Then hold your Home button down and plug the USB power cord back in. iTunes should see it and then restore.

    Unknown "source"?  Do you mean unknown "error" followed by a number?

    Follow the instructions in the article.  When you connect your phone again, you may have to press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo reappears, then continue pressing the home button until iTunes detects the phone in recovery mode.

  • I just restarted my phone, and now its frozen on the apple logo screen it shows when it restarts! anyone know how to get it to work?

    My phone is frozen on the apple logo screen that shows when restarting. I tried to restart it again, but it still freezes and stays on that screen . I really dont want to reformat! Does anyone have any idea how to fix it?  THANKS!

    You have to put it in dfu mode, when its plugged into itunes reset it by holding the home and the power button, when it starts back up let go of the power button and just hold the home button it should find your phone and say its in restore mode. from there you just have to restore it
