Crashed and will not turn on!

I was listening to my Touch in the car and went to check my calendar and the music started to stutter and it would not go to the home screen. I tried turning it off and it was not responding, though eventually the screen went black and now it will not turn on, even when connected to my mac for charging. iTunes does not recognize that it is plugged in either.
Is there a way to do a reset of the Touch? What do I do?
Thanks.

Your Welcome.

That is correct, holding both the Home and Sleep/Wake button soft-resets the iPod touch. It is just like restarting a computer.
2. For future reference, is it a bad idea to try to check my calendar or do another task while it is playing music? >Is the Touch capable of this level of multitasking OR should I avoid it?
The iPod touch is capable of multi-tasking. If you continue to see the issue, you may want to try and restore the iPod. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305744

My ipad 4 crashed and will not turn back on

My Ipad 4 will not turn back on when it was crashing there were these computer codes and it was turned and then it just went black it won't turn back on it is at full charge and I don't know why it won't turn back on right now it is on the charger what should I do?

try a hard reset. hold down the home button and the power button at the same time until u see an apple appear on the screen
if that doesnt work u will need to place it into recovery mode and start a restore because the software failed.

Iphone 5C Crashed and Will Not Turn On For Anything

The screen on my Iphone 5c turned green yesterday while I was taking a picture and my phone cut off. It then went through a phase where the Apple logo would appear and fade out. Sometimes the logo would turn red or a different color while it did this over and over again. Eventually, it turned back on and everything was cool until the next morning. I woke up late for work because my Iphone had crashed while I was sleeping and the alarm on the phone never went off. The phone had been plugged in to a wall charger so I was surprised to see my phone "dead" when I finally got up. The phone worked fine during the day but later that night it turned green and crashed again. This time it never turned back on. The logo repeatedly fades in and out. Hard resets do nothing and I can't even get it to enter recovery mode with Itunes to do a factory reset. I have an appointment with the Apple store on Tuesday so we shall see how that goes... I've only had my phone since August and it is not damaged in ANYWAY. I also don't have many apps, just one for the campus bus tracker. I never had any problems with my Iphone 4. However, my new phone is running on iOS 8 or 8.1. I can't remember. But I do know that I haven't done the most recent update yet.

Go into an Apple Retail Store have them look at it.
Bring in the lightening cable as well. If they find its dead they will warrant it on the spot.
Don't use Verizon for warranty on any iPhone.
Good Luck

Try holding both the power button on top and the home bottom at the bottom of the display for approximately 10 seconds. This should reboot your crashed iPad.

Imac crashed and will not boot up

So my iMac crashed and will not boot. The power will come on and when it switches to the boot sequence it powers off. I bought Black Tie protection at Best Buy but when I took it to them they shipped it to Apple. The problem was never fixed. Apple said it was a software issue to reload the OS. Well i did that and not even a day went by and it is doing the same thing. Any suggestions would be helpful...

I agree with BGreg that you should run Apple Hardware Test , however run it in Extended Mode. If no errors turn up run it several times. It's a lengthy test so be patient. Also here is what Apple says about your symptoms in Gray progress bar appears under Apple logo during startup.
I hope you have been backing up your system, if not then if you can boot into Safe Mode as suggested you should immediately backup using either a clone or Time Machine. That should be the #1 priority to preserve your data.

My home imac has crashed and will not boot up.

Hi
My home imac has crashed and will not boot up and I'm not sure where to start.
It wouldn't shut down properly so I turned off the power, and now it won't go beyond the apple logo and timeer when I try to restart it.
It is an imac (4 years old), Intel, running OS X, not sure which version, but probably the latest.
Thanks
Carol

I would first reset the SMC:
Shut down and unplug the Mac.
Keep the Mac unplugged for at least fifteen seconds.
Plug the Mac back in and do not turn it back on for at least five seconds.
Press the power button to turn the Mac back on.
Then I would reset the PRAM by rebooting the iMac while simultaneously holding the Command-Option-P-R keys until the machine restarts a second time.
Let us know if these two procedures don't solve the problems.
Hope this helps

Firefox crashed and will not open again, I did not upgrade to 5.0 - is a mac 10.7 Please tell me how to fix this and I don't want complicted.

my computer upgraded from 3.6 to 5 and crashed and will not now open any pages with firefox. I have tried to reinstall many times with same result. What is the problem?

Try going to the Tools menu item, and choose Options.
In the popup, select the Advanced screen (cog icon) and under that, the Update sub-tab. On that tab, uncheck the various boxes for checking for updates, and see if that helps?

I have just recently installed ios6 to my iPad 3 an iPhone 4 my iPhone works fine but my iPad is not working at all I can not get a response from it, it seemed to download an then install but did not reset and turn on and will not turn on HELP!! Withdrawal or what!! Lol

Hi there,
Firstly, try a hard reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears.
If this doesn't work, try restoring your device. Put it in recovery mode if iTunes doesn't recognise it, and restore it from there. I have linked to instructions below.
Recovery Mode and Restore - Apple
Let me know if this helps,
