HELP!!! iPod is frozen and won't turn on

My iPod Nano will not turn on. I last used it today it was half charged, so I know the battery is not dead... I have tried the 5 R's, plugged it into a wall outlet and still not working. When I connect it to my PC, I get nothing. My iTunes program does not display and iPod will not charge. Not sure what else I can do.. Is it broken? Any suggestions would be great!!

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again
- If still not successful, time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Iphone 4s is frozen and won't turn off.  How do I turn it off if the button at the top doesn't work?

    My iphone 4S is frozen and won't turn off.  Is there another way to reboot or turn off the phone besides the button at the top?

    Try to Reset your device. 
    Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button (I know you think it's broken, but try) and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off that shows up first).

  • My iPad Mini is frozen and won't turn on.

    My iPad mini was frozen in an app. I rebooted by pressing the home button and sleep button at the same time. However, it won't turn on. It is stuck in the power up screen, with the apple. It won't go past this. Please help.
    Thanks...

    If the reset doesn't work, you may have to force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • My 5G iPod shut down and won't turn on.

    I charged my 5th generation iPod overnight so when i woke up it was on 100%. i used it for roughly 15 minutes before i had to do something and leave it on the couch for 20 minutes. When i came back it was locked and wouldn't turn on, it just had a black screen. i tried to hold down the power button and not even a dead battery sign came up. i put it on charge and nothing happened again. When tried connecting to iTunes and my mac didn't even recognise that i had plugged in a device. I have a lot of stuff on there so i don't want to have to restore it. (I haven't synced it for a while) There is also no visible smashes on the screen and it was in the same position as where i left it. Please help.

  • HELP phone seems stuck and won't turn on or off

    Hi....I JUST got this phone....Saturday the 21st.  I have been having issues where I have no internet unless I have wifi.  I don't have the little 3g or 4g symbol at all and anytime I try to get online I can't unless it's in wifi.  Admittedly I could have done something that caused that, but I have bigger problems at the moment.  I thought that maybe I could turn my phone off and then turn it back on again and maybe that would fix my 3g/4g issue, well NOW it turns on and says flashes DROID like it's going to start up, but that's all it does and it won't turn off or go completely on!  I'm thinking that I need to take it in and get a new phone, but maybe there's something I can do...any suggestions?  Thanks

    stoughie,
    I'm sorry to hear that your phone is having data and power issues. That's never awesome! smashogre had a great tip, too. I hope it has worked for you. If not, I do recommend an alternative reset to return the phone to the factory settings. If after these steps, it still isn't functioning properly, please direct message me so I can assist you further.
    Thank you,

  • HT201412 sleep button does not work and iphone 4 is frozen and won't turn on

    sleep button broke a while ago and now my iphone 4 is frozen and i can't get it to reset also it doesn't sink up with the computer
    please help i miss my phone

    There's no software fix for a hardware issue. Either replace your phone...Apple has an out of warranty replacement program, cost is US $149 for an iPhone 4...or go to a third-party repair shop & get your phone fixed.

  • Help My ipod got wet and won't turn on

    Recently an accident happened where water was spilled onto my brand new ipod chromatic, I have no idea what to do and let it sit out to dry. Does anyone know if it wil work afterwards or something I can do to help/ fix it?

    Water is bad. At least when it comes to anything that runs on electricity.
    If you tried to turn it on immediately after it getting wet, you are probably in trouble. Everyones first instinct is to turn something on after they drop it in water or get it wet and that is the LAST thing you want to do at that point!
    If you get any device wet, DO NOT TURN IT ON! You need to let is sit and dry out before you try to turn it on.
    As for your specific case. Try letting it dry out completely, then try turning it on. Put it somewhere dry and warm for a day or two.
    If it still does not work, you may be out of luck.

  • Ipod randomly died and won't turn on again HELP!

    The other day I was walking home and I looked down at my Ipod and the screen was slowly fading. Within about 30 seconds the screen completely faded to nothing yet the song kept playing. I let the song play to the end thinking the screen would come back and when the song stopped the Ipod was dead. No new song began playing and the Ipod is unresponsive. It won't even respond when it sits on the dock. I don't think it should be the battery since I just replaced the battery by myself about a month ago. This is a refurbished Ipod and replacing the battery is all I have done since its purchase in January. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP! Has my crappy refurb-pod finally played its last song? It didn't even last 6 months....

    Oh, I'm sorry about this. I didn't know I was supposed to do a follow-up like this. This is kind of embarrassing...
    Anyway, like I said, I did find a way to fix it myself.
    Um, and the mods or admins can go ahead and delete this topic if it needs to be.
    Thanks guys. :3

  • Help! iPhone6 froze and won't turn off

    HElp!  I was just setting my alarm in my iPhone to wake me up and while editing the alarm the phone became very slow in responding to my touch screen commands, and finally completely froze.  The screen is full brightness, and I cannot power down, cannot do anything.  I plugged the phone into my laptop thinking that an iTunes synch might wake it, but ttunes didn't even see the phone connected.  I called my iPhone from a Landline and i got voicemail after four "rings"-  the one didn't ring or anything.
    What can I do?
    just wait for the battery to die?

    Try resetting your phone. Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

  • HT1339 My IPod is Frozen and won't work at all

    I just got it and I don't know much about it at all! I Need help or Im taking it back!! Very dissapointed.

    You have to sometimes hold the home and power buttons for longer than 10 seconds. If nothing happens after 30 seconds, THEN something is wrong.
