struggling to wake my apple tv wont respond even when holding the menu and down button any ideas ?

Did you try unplugging the unit from power, leaving it for ten minutes, then plugging in again?
If you have & it didn't work, Damian Smith1 posted this possible solution (I like to give credit where credit is due).
Connect your ATV to your computer and try restoring it to factory setting Use the link below to walk you through the process

IPod nano 3rd gen. Apple logo remains on screen and iTunes doesn't recognise it's plugged in, I can't even turn it off. I've tried to get to disc menu but when I hold the 'menu and select button' it reboots it doesn't recognise the select and play button

iPod nano 3rd gen. Apple logo remains on screen and iTunes doesn't recognise it's plugged in, I can't even turn it off. I've tried to get to disc menu but when I hold the 'menu and select button' it reboots and then doesn't recognise the select and play button to show the tick. I'm helpless.

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.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

My phone wont turn on ive tried holding the sleep and home button and nothing happened help?

i turned my phone off and it wont turn on ive tried holding the sleep and home button and nothing happened...i plugged it in to my computer and i didnt connect to itunes help

The two first choices are to reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, that can take up to half a minute. If that does not work, then more drastic is to restore using the recovery mode to connect to a computer running iTunes, described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 and summarized as:

I can not transfer apps from my itunes onto my ipod and my ipod wont connect to the internet and is wiped any ideas ??

- If in recovery mode the screen will have an iTunes logo with an USB plug.
- Have you tried connecting it to your computer for a n hw and then see if it appears in iTunes. If it does restore the iPod.
- If screen is blank, try placing he iPod in recovery mode and then restoring. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

I have an older iPod that no longer shows up in iTunes or appears to be charging. When I press the Menu and Select buttons, the Apple logo appears and then an icon of a battery with an exclamation point. Is it dead for good?

If it is otherwise working, you can change the battery. If you want to do it yourself, you can buy the part on eBay and other online sources. Just make sure you know the type of iPod you have so that you get the right part.

There are online guides, including the ones on this web site
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod
(Note: Most replacement batteries come with plastic/nylon tools seen in the guides.)
You can also have a repair business do the work.
If it is just the battery, if you do a Reset (using the Menu and Select buttons) while it is connect to your computer, I think it should still be recognized by iTunes.

Make sure it is charged for about 10min using the adapter, then connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...

Plug it into the charger/wall socket and let it charge for at least an hour. It just might start charging. If you have already tried charging it for a fair amount of time and it didn't work, try restoring the device with iTunes.

My Apple TV has been working fine, even earlier today. When I turned it on this afternoon, the TV indicated that "no signal" was being received. Restarted, unplugged, reset by holding menu and down button, etc. still no signal. Thoughts?

If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    1.    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    2.    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    3.    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    4.    Open iTunes.
    5.    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
