The photos icon to view the photos on the device? Look for the icon that looks like a little sunflower.

Meaning that you cannot restart or reset the phone? If you haven't tried already, try both options.
Otherwise, you can do a backup & restore, or even a restore as new (only after a successful backup).
If the issue persists, then look at a replacement. Either it will be a hardware defect (free if within warranty), or physical damage ($49 with AppleCare Plus, $149 without it.)

Power button on iPod touch operates on its own

Hello,
I have a 64 GB 3rd generation iPod touch. I bought it new about four years ago. It has NEVER given me any problems mechanically, and I know Apple has a good track record for this. However, about a week ago, response of the power button became a little spotty. I figured this was no big deal, as the device is four years old, it should be expected that every single button should not be as responsive as it was the day I got it. I left it at that and enabled Assistive Touch to releive some of the stress of the power button. This worked fine until three days ago, when the power button actually began to dictate to the device on its own. I am getting the same spotty response of the button, but now it will wake up the device and put it back to sleep again all on its own. I could be in the middle of selecting a new song or giving a voice command - then bam! The device puts itself to sleep. There are times when the device receives so much input from the power button it will flicker on and off from receiving so many spastic commands. Then, at other times, the device behaves as normal. A good way to describe this is electronic epilepsy. The device will be functioning as normal - then the next moment - it literally appears to be having some sort of seizure. It flickers on and off and sends all of the imaginable commands from the power button one could think of. Sometimes the button sends the shutdown signal and I get the "Side to Power Off" pane. I know this is an old device and that these mechanical altercations should be expected, but this makes it very, very difficult, and above all, irritating, to accomplish a task even as mundane as switching songs. Like I said, this little iPod has been great and it has withstood many elements which should have done it in (like braving extreme sub-zero and above-100F temperatures multiple times). So its life has not been a walk in the park, but it never displayed any signs of weakness, which is why I am baffled that in a perfect working enviromnent this odd quirck is occuring. But I like to think of it as a workhorse, and I sure as heck wasn't looking to invest in another flagship iPod model just at the moment, so I would dearly love to get this issue resolved and get back to having this thing as my daily companion. I have already done a factory reset and set it up as a new iPod. This did not help. Are there any suggestions as to what I can do to just get this device under control? Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks

Power button on ipod touch won't work?

The Power button on my ipod touch won't work at all, any suggestions?

Okay it says here https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do that your warranty has expired, my recomendation is to either clean it out with a needle, or just keep pushing it hoping it will un-stick.
hope this helped

Fix stucked power button on iPod touch

Hi,
I was using my iPod Touch 4th generation normally and then I tried to lock it but the power button was stucked even if I push hard it wont work.
The iPod still has the Repairs and service coverage (1 year limited Warranty) if I take it to an Apple Store, the repair will cost?
Thanks.

Is the power button stuck because of a drop and damage to the metal casing? Or did the power button just malfunction on its own with no damage that you caused?
If you are under warranty and there is no damage inflicted by user, then Apple store should just give you a new/refurb ipod. You will have to restore all your apps and music so I would back up your touch before you take it into the apple store.
If the case is damaged then Apple won't cover it. They will charge you depending on the size of the iPod touch, 8gb, 32gb, or 64gb. If the case is damaged I would send it to iresq as I have sent multiple apple products to them and they can not be beat on price and customer service. Much cheaper than apple every time I have delt with them. They only do work for USA customers (not sure where you are locate).
I hope this helps, good luck.

If the screen on your ipod touch crack is their anyway you can get it repaired

If the screen on an ipod touch is crack is there anyway to get it repaired?

Contact a company that repairs ipods or you can check with Apple and see what they charge for this.

Just picked up my Macbook Pro (Oct 24th) to find that it keeps freezing on me - only way out is to crash it via the power button. No particular pattern to it. It can happen on opening, or clicking on Safari - or when it's backing up on the TC. Ideas?

Picked up my new Macbook Pro Retina display on October 24th (2013). It runs Mavericks. Keeps freezing on me - with no pattern to it. Sometimes when it's backing up, sometimes when it opens, sometimes when I click on Safari. Only way out of the probelm is a crash shut down using the power button. Nothing else works. Anyone found a fix to this yet?

Safe Mode deletes some system caches that may help.
Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
A Safe Mode boot takes longer than a normal boot so be patient.
Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.

What happens to the apps when I press the home button on iPod touch?

Yeah, I know that sounds obvious, but I need to know the idea behind it. In iOS 4, you can multitask, but only if you have an iPod touch 3rd generation (32 or 64 GB). I don't have an iPod touch 3rd generation; I have the 8 GB 2nd generation, which I upgraded to iOS 4, so I have no multitasking for 3rd party apps.
So my question is: On my 2nd generation iPod touch that runs iOS 4, if I close a 3rd party app that uses Push Notifications (such as Facebook or Textfree Unlimited) by pressing the home button, will it still run in the background?

I'm not dead certain of this, but I think the only push mail supported is Apple's MobileMe. When you launch another app the current app is closed. The Home button should close any running app. The only exception I've noted is if you are playing music on the Touch which seems to continue playing even when running another app.

How to unjam sleep/power button? iPod touch 4th generation

A few days ago, I was using my ipod touch 4th generation. It working fine. A minute later, I went to use it again, & for some reason my sleep/power button was jammed. I have to use immense pressure to make it go to sleep. Is there a way I could get it unjammed without opening my iPod? I don't want to risk it breaking it any further. I would take it to the Apple Store, but I don't have warranty on it anymore since I got it a little over a year ago when it first released. My screen is also cracked from last December. Will the Apple Store still fix the sleep/power button and maybe my screen without warranty? & how much will be? Individual or both? Much appreciated!

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity.
Some of the suggestions in the following previous dicussion are also applicable to the power switch.

Is there any way to fix the home button on ipod touch?

my home button has today stopped working! is there any way that this can be fixed, either by a repair shop or by me doing some thing? at the moment the only way to get out of an app is to turn off the ipod and then tuirn it back on again - which is getting really tiresome and annoying!!

The microphone on my iPod Touch does not work anymore :( what should I do ?????

Hi , my iPod is awsome,but the microphone doesnt work and i dont know what to do also before i did have probleme with my iPod but ive find a way on itunes to fix it !!! And when i talk on memo we can see that it wont get up more then 20 level !!!!

- Make sure the mic hole is unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back side of the iPod by the camera lens.
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
