Apple logo stays on and ipod will not turn on fully

Hi, I had a water bottle leak in my purse and my ipod stopped working, I sent it to Apple and they denied the service (ugh). It wasn't working when I sent it but now when I plug it in, itunes recognizes it and my pictures and stuff from it load into my computer, but the black background with silver apple logo remain on the screen of the ipod and it won't turn on fully. When I unplug it from the computer, the apple stays up and then later the circle "loading" thing appears behind the apple but it just remains that way until it runs out of batteries. I tried restoring it but it didn't do anything. What to do?
P.S. I bought it refurbished and its an 8gb.. 2nd generation I think

Hello houseman06
Check out the troubleshooting steps in the article below to get your iPad nano back up and running. Also check to make sure that the lock button is not on preventing it from being un responsive.

The way I did it was I got the free app sync:stream from the App Store and then added my ipod to my ps3's Bluetooth devices. Then went to audio settings and set output and input to 'Skaggs iPod' you then open the app and it will be listed under music as a media service. You then go to all tracks and click copy (press triangle) it will then begin to copy all of your songs onto your ps3 via Bluetooth. I haven't tried but I assume the same can be done with photos. I hope this was helpful reply if you have any questions :) good luck

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I leave it charging until it gets back to full, usually it turns on after a little bit of time after plugging it in, but all its doing is going to the apple logo screen and going blank again.

My ipod froze then turned off and now will not turn back on

my ipod was fully charged and was working perfectly.
i locked it and when i tried to unlock it my touch screen wouldnt work.
i tried reseting it by pressing the home button and the power button.
it started to reboot then froze on the apple logo screen.
after waiting for twenty minutes or so i tried reseting it again while it was still on the apple logo screen,
then it turned off and now will not turn back on.
i have tried plugging it into my computer to see if it would by some miracle turn back on but i have been unsuccessful
my ipod is my life, if anyone can help me fix it i would greatly appriciate it!!!!!!!!

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

"The iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." Any thoughts? Also, iPod will not turn or or charge (tried in my laptop, house computer and dock) I have all the lastest updates to my knowledge

"iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." iPod will not turn on or charge or reset settings. I tried plugging it in my laptop, house computer and docking station to charge and nothing. Also, I have all the latest software updates to my knowledge. This is a classic 8GB iPod, running of Windows 7. Any thoughts/suggestions?

only thing that seems to work so far is syncing without photos and also check here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206849?start=30&tstart=0

You'll need to connect the iPod Touch to your iTunes library in recovery mode and restore it factory settings. There is no other way.
Here are instructions for getting your iPod touch into recovery mode.

Ipod will not turn on, itunes will not open, window says ipod is in recovery mode and needsto be restored

ipod will not turn on, itunes will not open, window pops up says ipod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. what do i do now?

You restore the iPod via iTunes. Don't plug the iPod in. Open up iTunes and then plug it in and then try restoring, if it fails to restore a few times, keep trying. I do it on a daily basis, you're using an Apple product, remember...
EDIT: Do it from another computer if all else fails.

You have entirely too little free space on the boot drive, for best performance it's best to have hard drives only 50% filled max and never more than 80% filled.
See Storage Drive here and reduce some space also make a seperate bootable clone backup of all your data BEFORE upgrading
Most commonly used backup methods
see here for how to find your disk space
Why is my computer slow?
If you upgrade and it doesn't go right or slows the machine down you might need to erase and install, which all your programs will have to be reinstalled from original sources and files from backup.
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
If you can't do this, then hire a local PC/Mac specialist.
Do not upgrade to 10.7 or 10.8 on that older machine, it will slow down and you will lose all your PPC based programs.
Leave the Lions for a brand new machine with a SSD drive.
