First iPod wouldn't turn off...now won't hold charge

I got a new speaker system for my iPod. I used it once and ever since my iPod will not turn off without being plugged into the computer or the wall. I did the 5Rs and it still wouldn't turn off like it's suppsed to. Now I went to try some other things and it is completely dead after I charged it a few days ago. It used to hold a charge for a long time. Now nothing. I wanted some advise before I tried other things. I don't want to make matters worse. Help me please!!! (of course it was almost a year to the day that I bought the thing and look, the warrenty is up and it no longer works...thanks Apple.)

sorry for my horrible spelling. it's been a long month. any help would be greatly appreciated.

IPod Classic 120G turned off and won't turn back on.

I have the iPod Classic 120G and I was listening to it and it turned off. I've tried restarting it and plugged the iPod back into the computer and it still fails to turn on. Help please?

If it's not the HOLD switch, try resetting it with the two-button combo.

?ipod no longer turns off by pressing and holding play/pause on click whee

ipod had turned off before, but now cannot turn it off. It continues to stay on. I've tried to use hold switch to see if that helps, but ipod still won't turn off, and it uses up my battery. hold play/pause button doesn't seem to work?

Did you try resetting it? I had the same problem with my 30gb video and it worked.

HT201401 baby tossed iphone in toilet now won't hold charge

My 18 month old daughter tossed my iphone 4 in the toilet. After drying it out for a couple of days, I tried to use it again. I thought it was fixed when it came on, and even was able to make calls. All seemed fine, until i realized that it will only hold charge to around 10%. Then when it ran out of battery, it wouldn't charge again. It would show the apple logo, the turning circle thing, then off again. So, I dried it out for another day or so, then charged it, and it came back on, I could use it, placed calls, etc. It, again, would only charge to 10% or so. I have ordered a new battery, but I'm wondering if this will fix the problem. If not, does anyone have any suggestions other than to never leave my phone where my baby girl can get to it. lol Thanks.

Your best bet is to not change the battery and take it to Apple for a replacment unit. It will cost you 149 but the phone will work/look like new. As it was water damaged more could be damaged other then the battery. If you replace the battery then you won't be able to replace it with Apple for 149 as it won't have the origninal parts or it's been opened by a 3rd party.

My ipod touch5 froze turned off and won't turn back on. It's been on the charger for 3 days now. plz help???

Please help me I just got it and it's already messed up.

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.

4th gen iPod turned off and won't turn back on.

So, earlier today I had my iPod touch (4th gen) plugged into my electronic drum kit through a double sided auxillary cable. Nothing out of the usual. I turned it to a certain song I felt like jamming to at the time and it froze. It was a weird type of freeze. The screen itself was frozen, as was the sound, but it had displayed weird grey/purple static waves, like an old T.V. with the antennas slightly off. I tried turning the iPod off normally, when that didnt work I held the power and home button to reset it thinking it was some glitch that would go away. Only, it didn't reset and just stayed off. I've tried plugging it into my PC, no response. I've even tried plugging it into my xbox (which is one way I usually charge it) and it didn't respond either. As of now, it's a brick. I have no idea why. Nothing was out of the ordinary other then a random screen freeze/glitch.
TL;DR I have an iPod that's turned off, it will not reset, go into DFU mode, and does not charge/is not recognized when plugged into anything. Anyone got any idea what I should do?

It would appear that you have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius bar of an Apple store is in order.

If you have done the reset and nothing appears and you are sure it still has a charge and it doesn't turn on, you may request for a replacement if it still covered by the warranty. Cheers!

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

My Ipod can't turn off anymore

So yeah, i've had my ipod for about 8 months now, working great and all, but in the last 2 days it just can't seem to turn off. I'm holding the pause/play button like I did many times in the past, and now it's not working. Has this happened to anybody before? Please help.
Thanks

hey please help!
i was using my ipad it was under 10% but no under 4% it turned off then i pluged the charger in and flashed on then showed apple sign after i turned it on. now its going back and forth from the apple sign and battery symbol ive changed chargers its made no differnce its been like 3 hours ive tried to do that reset thing holding lock button and home button for 10 seconds at the same time. WHAT DO I DO?

Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.
