HELP PLEASE iPod Touch 4G went brown, then static, then turned off

I was listening to music and looking at photos when my screen flashed brown, then then that static that comes up on a TV came on, then turned off. It isn't turning back on, last week when I connected it to a computer it made a noise, but it's been plugged in for the last 30 minutes and nothings come up on iTunes.
I've tried holding the sleep and home button... IT DOESNT WORK.
Help please!

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

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    Also
    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen screen messed up after turning off then back on (it died)

    My ipod had 20% battery and I was due for a full cycle charge so I let it fully die then plugged it in to charge then when it started to turn back on the bottom (where the first two rows of numbers are for the passcode) of it was white and inverts colors then the rest of the screen doesn't show colors right it's just mostly almost white until it gets to strange pictures then it shows colors a bit better but it's still messed up (No I havent dropped it or got it wet or left it in the sun or whatever I plugged it into the wall charger I have and left it set for about an hour then went to bring it out of sleep mode and it was like that)

  • I went on a trip and charged my iPod Touch using my MacBook. I had turned off "automatic synch". Now my iPod won't snych. What happened?

    I went on a trip and charged my iPod Touch using my MacBook. To do this I switched off "automatically synch" etc. Now I want to synch my iPod Touch but my MacBook keeps wanting to charge it. I can't see the iPod icon nor does plugging it into the USB port automatically start iTunes anymore. I recently upgraded to 10.6.3 from 10.5.8. Now what?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. You have a defective iPod. If not abused, Apple will exchange it at no cost

  • Ipod touch 2nd gen disconnects from itunes and turns off while syncing

    My Ipod touch i try to connect to itunes and sync it with the itunes, but everytime there is a problem. The problem is that every time it gets like maybe 10 - 30 % done syncing the ipod cuts to a black screen and it is gone from itunes window. Also occasionally the usb device is unrecognized and wont turn on for a minute of holding both the power and home buttons.
    I have tried these things
    1) syncing from a different computer
    2) uninstalling itunes and other components
    3) Deleting the current firmware and downloading the one of itunes
    4) Checked for updates
    5) used a different usb port and ports on the back of the computer
    6) Restart the services (Apple mobile device ect.)
    7) Restarting computer
    8) Erase all contents and settings from the ipod but that doesnt work because when it is done it gets stuck on the apple logo with the loading circle but never turns on.
    I have no idea what is wrong with my ipod if you have any questions or help post them, and i should get back to you asap.

    Try this before you go to Apple:
    Specific error codes and resolutions:
    Error 9: This error occurs when the device unexpectedly drops off of the USB bus and communication stops. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB isolation troubleshooting, using a different USB dock connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

    Tried a hard reset of the device.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  See this article for more help and information on troubleshooting this issue.

  • Why does my iPod touch keep freezing when I attempt to turn off iCloud Keychain in the settings?

    Everytime I try to turn off iCloud Keychain, my iPod's
    Screen freezes and automatically turns iCloud Keychain back on. I really don't want ICloud Keychain and it has been a while since I tried to turn it off.

    used ipod touch, cant reset to DFU,sync or power off.. please help!!

    From your description it appears that the iPod is on like it showing something on the screen. In that case let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try a rest restore and other things again.
    If the iPod returns to the same conditions then it is time for an appoitment at the Genious Bar of an Apple store.

  • Ipod touch screen went black and then started flashing. Then the turn off slide comes up.

    Ipod touch screen went black and then started flashing. Then the turn off slide comes up. Restored multiple times and didn't work. Ipod works with Itunes fine (can put music and podcasts on the ipod), but can't take songs off of the ipod. Using windows xp and everything is up to date. Any ideas of how to fix it?

    I didn't know that it was posted three times. My computer didn't say that it posted anything.
    My ipod still syncs to itunes and I can put podcasts and music on my ipod, but I can't delete songs after I put them on the ipod. When I try to delete songs I try to delete it from the main music list on the ipod. It's also doing all the other stuff that I posted before. The screen will go black and then the power off slider thing shows up for a few seconds, then it'll show the unlock slider bar. Then goes black again. It will also do that when I have the ipod unocked and changing songs or playing a game. I've restored it to the factory default/new ipod and it still does the same thing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and then restored it again to the factory default and it's still doing the same exact thing. I checked and my computer is up to date.
